And certainly, if the position is open, that must be very dangerous." He thinks of his Potions classes. "I understand that the beds would be filled with the unwise and foolish, but... I would have them after the fact, with their foolishness already impressed upon them." There might be a certain satisfaction there. He could heal and show them an example of efficiency and knowledge. And there would perhaps be tutorials for the brighter, more focused and appreciative students. His lips lift at this much better prospect of his immediate future and feels less awkward at once.
"Perhaps we might speak to them together? I would prefer to face that in person, if it is possible. Your presence would surely give them cause to hesitate before hexing me." His mouth tightens for a heartbeat at the irony. "Not that I am incapable of defending myself, but it is better to avoid that."
