Future Student Meeting [backdated to earlier this evening]
Once the crowd in the hall had dwindled to a reasonably small size, Albus rose from the high table and made his way to the antechamber off the side of the hall. A few people seemed to take notice, of course, but that could not be helped. Considering all the rumours already surrounding the Future Students, another about their meeting with the Headmaster certainly wouldn't make things that much worse.

He unlocked the door with a wave of his wand, lit the torches within the room, and conjured a table as well as thirteen soft, cushioned armchairs. They were likely be here a while. He saw no need for anyone to be physically uncomfortable, even if what he had to tell them would no doubt cause them considerable emotional discomfort.

Susan had been sitting nervously at the Hufflepuff table through all of dinner. She barely could even eat anything. Being the mild mannered girl she was, she had never had an audience with the Headmaster for disciplinary action. Really, the incident with the DA was the only time she'd ever been close to having broken the rules.

She saw Dumbledore go into the antechamber and figured she should follow. She waited a few seconds before departing, but made her way rather quickly. Somehow this probably had to do with Harry, Hermione, and Ron, but she still felt somewhat guilty.

"Er, Professor?"

	"Yes, Miss Emmor?" Albus said, smiling cheerfully at the girl who had just entered the room, wearing a fairly guilty expression. He nodded toward one of the armchairs as he continued toward the table, settling himself in the odd chair at one end. "Is something on your mind?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Susan sat down, but continued to look nervous. "No, Professor. I mean, yes, because I have to speak to you which usually isn't good, but I didn't do anything wrong... I mean, I don't think I did anything wrong." She usually could carry herself better than this, she chided herself. Being in the past was putting her on edge. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Albus did his best to repress his smile, since he imagined it would not help with the girl's obvious agitation. "Oh no, my dear girl ... I am reasonably certain that you have not, in fact, done anything wrong. Now all of you have assimilated into the school, the time has merely come -- or passed, rather -- for us to begin a discussion with regards to strategy. That is why I have asked you here today." Well, it was not the entire reason, of course, but he saw no clear reason not to calm the girl's nerves.

	OOC: Bleh! Forgot to reply instead of comment. Ron grumbled as he set eyes on Hermione, but smiled weakly at Hannah and Susan. He flopped on to a chair ungracefully and pretended not to be listening. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There was far too much tension in the room for Harry's tastes. Though, he couldn't say that he was not to blame. He smiled slightly at the professor, mostly out of respect and took a seat near Ron. It seemed like they both were a little at odds with Hermione. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ron shot a look at Harry and knew Hermione was being a pain to him as well. As Hannah began speaking Ron crossed both of his legs and attempted to scrunch down and blend in to his chair. Maybe he could just listen and get out of there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pansy wondered what was going on, but figured it was more of Dumbledore's stupid ideas. Since it was his fault, she was stuck in this time, she hated him even more than before. She had practically stormed to the table before plopping down with a huge, dramatic sigh. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
