Open Office

WHO: Murdoc Ampora and ANYONE
TONE: WELCOMING, it can vary!!
RATING: PG-13
WHEN: May 7th
WHERE: Murdoc's Office
WHAT: With exams coming up, Murdoc is spending more time in his office. Both because he's grading papers and because as Head of Slytherin it's his solemn duty to guide his students through hard times yadda yadda. He's there to answer questions.
STATUS: Ongoing

Exams have been coming up a long time, but Murdoc isn't surprised to see the majority students in a flurry of anxiety and fear. Despite his eagerness to watch students who failed to prepare crash and burn, he decides it would be best to extend his office hours on the off chance that students of any house need a little extra tutoring. Of course, priority falls to students in Slytherin, he's here to assist them with their big life choices and to discuss potential careers. He may or may not be a little eager to send everyone off to the Ministry, but he's interested in hearing what students believe they're capable of.

Today in particular he's come prepared. He has a large mug of very strong coffee by his side as he idly skims through some practise exam papers. His door is open, so anyone walking by will see him looking less than impressed and just a little bit bored. If you have a question, student or professor alike, now is probably the best time to get his attention.

It kind of just goes right over his head. He's dealt with so many little jabs at him that it takes rather big ones to actually get him to notice. "I'm glad ya think so!" he says, feeling relieved that Murdoc doesn't think he should become the minister, too. God, that would be the worst. Being a minister would be so boring! He'd much rather do something more exciting.

"Well..." He hums to himself. "I like care of magical creatures! The animals are exciting and I think I'm pretty good at it." He actually does have decent marks in it, really. It's one of his better classes. "And potions can definitely be exciting!" His marks are horrendous in potions, but it's like an adventure every class, what with all the melted cauldrons.

What else, what else... "I guess that's it? I mean... Gosh, everything is great here! I can't really narrow it down too much. Can I just do everything? Except, y'know, the boring stuff?"
