If I was a professor at Hogwarts I’d just be happy my kids didn’t get decapitated or pregnant in the open air prison they live in. I could give a shit if they were late.
But explain that to an over-ambitious Slytherin-parent! Good luck.
Pfft it’s I’d tell them their tax money pays for my niece’s “sabbatical to experiment ‘botany’ with faeries” before telling them to fuck off, “I have tenure”.
I’d… Also 100% hit on any Slytherin moms, I got a thing for Goth witches ok?
This is getting way to specific to be hypothetical. Admit it: you ARE in fact a professor at Hogwarts and now want free advice on your current “legal situation”. Well, maybe keep your wand in your pants and spend less time in the botany with the hallucinogens!
Padme meme: towards where you need to go, in order to help you get there faster, right?
… and not for completely asthetic purposes to impress visiting parents, right?
Oh I was thinking that old story “when I went to Hogwarts, I had to run fast, uphill both ways, somehow through the snow… inside the building even!?” So like, a rite of passage - boomers had to do it, so now everyone else does too:-P.
Yeah, that’s totally what could be the (stair)case for most things in Hogwarts! And if I were a senior there, I would be like that too :D
Funny idea, I still don’t really get the inital one; could also be lost in translations. I’m not a native speaker.
I guess you understand it - the student is late, but the stairs will not cooperate, thus causing frustration. And “circumstairces” is not a real world, but it works perfectly for this situation!:-)
