New Aladrens to me by Professor John Fawcett
During the summer, John's social contact - outside of, of course, his brother, sister-in-law, and former sister-in-law's fan events; to Scott's profound relief, John and Allison had yet to come up with a way to top the "Men in Black" incident, so they had come as themselves and been generally unobtrusive except when Marla Minish was around -had been mostly limited to his wife, which made adjusting to the sheer volume of the full student body an interesting experience. The matter was, however, swiftly driven from his mind by the severe underrepresentation of Aladren in the first year class.It was a shame. His students were, indisputably, the best Sonora had to offer, but they were few enough that Amelia's Crotali managed to wipe the floor with them most years by simple mathematics and a failure to break (or, if John's theory was correct, get caught breaking) the rules. It might be just possible, if the new Crotali were the antagonistic variety and the Teppenpaws all apathetic to their schoolwork and the Pecaris especially unruly, to pull out an Aladren victory this year, but even he wouldn't lay money on it.
Still, stranger things had happened, and Aladren had just provided the school with both a Head Boy and a Head Girl. John's smile was genial as, having waited until the other professors were done with their own announcements to make his own for the new Aladrens, he removed the sonorus charm from his voice, restoring it to its usual middling pitch and volume. "Good evening," he said. "My name is Professor Fawcett. You are, if you turned blue tonight, now members of Aladren House, which I am Head of. I will now escort you to our common room."
OOC: Continued on the Aladren Commons. There is no need to reply to these posts, though you may if you wish; they are merely to allow you to post on more boards around the school. Welcome to Sonora!
