Magnus and OPEN
Magnus sat with the other professors and watched as the students tucked into their feast. He did wonder sometimes if manners were something some of them left at home as they hit the food like vultures or perhaps that was how they were at home too. His new Hufflepuffs were settling in already, chatting to each other as well as some of the kinder older students who had taken it upon themselves to be welcoming.
His eyes, as much as he told himself not to, were drawn to Alec watching him with a small smile as he recalled the dinners they had shared over the summer. It wasn't going to be an easy year but it would be worth it. That much he knew no matter what happened.
