Nora
”Thaaank you Miiister Deeeeenniiiis!”

Jones grinned as the kids waved at him and walked in two lines towards their art class. He was currently sitting on one of the desks that were pushed together in groups of 4, leaning forward with his elbows on his thighs. His hands were laced together in front of him, separating only to give a general 'salute' to her students. “I’ll see you lot outside.” A few of the girls giggled and the boys got excited, slapping high fives before they were all out of the classroom. It was really funny how some of the students didn’t believe that he was really who he said he was until they saw his Jersey and asked him all sorts of questions that 'only the real Jones Dennis would know'. Sure, there were some students in her class who weren’t Puddlemere fans, but they were still interested in seeing a real Quidditch player up close.

When the last student was out of the door, he turned back to Nora, still smiling as he leaned forward. “Quite a class you’ve got there.” Since her feet were already touching the ground since the desk was so short, he was able to stand up quite easily, making his way over to the bulletin board that was nearby, just observing some of the artwork her students had given to her. He actually had to tilt his head to the side to try and make something out, his eyes narrowing as he focused in on the massive grey and red blob that was on the paper. "They seem like good kids." He seemed a little distracted, since he was still trying to figure out what the picture was supposed to be, if it was anything at all.

She smiled, trying to compare the two events now in her mind. "I'm sure you gave the dragon a good run for its money. And if you end up staying until we go outside, you will surpass the dragon in popularity by a landslide." She leaned against a counter behind her, smiling up at him. Her hands rested subconsciously on her tummy as if they served as some protective barrier.

"Well, after they're finished with art, they'll eat a quick lunch and then we go outside to burn off all their excess energy. And then when they get back we'll either go into reading or pre-potions. I've been meaning to teach them how to mix up play doh..." she laughed a bit to herself, still glancing over the art work. "It's not quite like real potions, but it's similar and it helps them recognize the delicate balance of it all at an early age."

Jones let out a light laugh at her comment, crossing his arms over his chest. "Well, I'd be an idiot to leave if me staying means I'd be more popular than a dragon." He gave her a playful wink to let her know that that wasn't really why he was staying. The kids were really happy to have him around, and he didn't want to let them down. Besides, he was having fun! He was a kid at heart, so he fit right in with her class.

"That's actually very clever of you. Kids love play doh, and if it helps them learn how to mix and measure, than it's good that you give them something to make that they'll actually enjoy." He raised the shoulder that wasn't leaning against the wall in a half shrug, now looking back to the art work that she was looking at. "So...what are these, exactly?"

Of course he was having fun! Nora's kids were always so eager to meet new people and explore and just let loose. "Hmm, they do like play doh, don't they?" She grinned, thining about how (hopefully) the kids would have fun with it in the afternoon.

She laughed as she realized that Jones wouldn't know what the kids had drawn, would he? "Well, there's this children's story called 'Harold the Hinkypunk' and we'd just finished reading it at the beginning of the week, so I had them draw their favorite part of the story," she explained, giving a quick glance over all the pictures hanging up.
