*she walks up for her meeting with her old mentor, a bit nervous but she would never let it show*
*patiently she waited to be seen by the Headmaster, and patience are not always easy for her*

*Severus comes sweeping up the stairs his robes flowing out behind him.*
*He catches sight of Skylar as she waits for him outside of his office. Pausing just feet away from her he speaks.*
Miss Maynard...

Professor...it's wonderful to see you again...you are looking well...

*Bows his head to his old apprentice.*
As are you. Tell me, Skylar what brings about your return to us, and the school?
*Flicks his wand at the office door, gesturing for her to enter when it opens.*

*she nods slightly as the door opens and he gestures for her to enter, looking around as she walks in*
Thank you, Professor. I guess you could say I missed home as well as those I left behind...or at least some of them. And when I learned that you were now Headmaster, well I would love the opportunity to work under you again. I have always learned so much from you.
*she turned to face him after making her way inside his office*

*Follows her into his office, moving past her to his desk, gesturing to a chair for her to sit on.*
*He isn't surprised that she has contacted him now that she has returned. She was one of his top students, and she also worked very hard to please him, and The Dark Lord as is apprentice.*
I believe that we can find a position for you here.
You would do well in such a position, the students would benefit much from your teachings.
*Perches himself upon his chair.*

*she sits, remembering that she is a lady, listening to him intently*
I can only hope that I would not disappoint you. It would be nice to be able to help the students in their studies and prepare them for life after Hogwarts. Just what did you have in mind, Headmaster?
*she smiled with the last part, feeling a sense of pride that her old master is now the Headmaster of Hogwarts*
And might I say that I was happy to hear of your appointment to Headmaster. It is well deserved.

*Closes the door of the office with a sharp wave of the wand. He lays his wand in front of himself upon the desk, taking a moment to think.*
We have a need for someone to tutor the advanced students in healing magic, and if I recall that is something you are highly skilled in.
*Watches her as she sits, listening to him. She always seemed to hang on his every word.*
*He nods at her compliment, a smug feeling filling his chest.*
The start of term is upon us, and I am confident there will be several students signing up to take a healing course such as the one you would be able to provide for them.

*she keeps her eyes on him as he lays his wand on his desk, never losing her smile, excited to be working with her old master once again*
Yes, healing magic is something I've excelled in. I hope that the students will be interested in learning what I have to teach them. And I hope that I can inspire them the way that I was inspired by you, Professor.
*she would always think of him as her Professor and Master, even though she was not his student any more, she wouldn't think of calling him by his first name, always wanting to be as respectful as possible*

*Severus has a soft spot for one of his favourite students, and apprentices, though she would never know. He is quite happy that Skylar has accepted his offer, and hopes that she does well in her new position along the staff.*
I am sure the students will learn a great deal from you, Skylar. As well as some of the staff, I'm afraid.
*He doesn't acknowledge her compliment, and continues to explain to her of her duties to the school, confident she will do all that is requested of her by him.*
There will be an office available for you to use, students may need to seek you there if they have questions about the subject, or wish to expand further into the branch of healing you will be teaching them.
Even though you are basically a guide for the students, I do expect you to make sure all students are following directions, and rules of the school. You do have the authority to take or give House Points as you see fit, detentions, and awards as well.
I also expect you be in the Great Hall come time for the first day of school, and the Sorting Ceremony, I should like to introduce you, as well as the other new professor.

*she sat, a feeling of excitement coming over her as he explains what is expected of her*
I will do all that I can, Professor. I appreciate the opportunity you're giving me, as well as your faith in me. Of course I will be here for the first day, I look forward to meeting some of my soon to be students.
*she gives a slight sigh of relief as she flashes a dazzling smile at him once again*
As much as I enjoy spending my free time with you, Professor, I also need to find a place to live. So if there isn't anything else, I'm afraid I must be going soon. But I look forward to spending more time with you.
*she waited to make sure that he did not need anything else from her before she takes her lead, even though she didn't want to go. she would rather spend her time here with him*

You are perfectly welcome to stay in the castle during the school year.
*Nods to her, excusing her if she chooses to leave.*

*she smiled, happy that he invited her to stay at the castle*
That would be wonderful. It would save me so much time looking for a proper home.
*she looked around, surveying the room a bit, noting how it had changed since the last time she had been there*
The office has changed a bit since the last time I was here. But it is completely you, Professor.
*she returned her gaze to him, blushing slightly*
I'm a little unsure as to where I should begin now...

*Gazes around the office, feeling the office does suit him.*
It is comfortable...
*Turns his black eyes on her again, lifting his wand in his right hand as he picks up a piece of blank parchment from his desk.*
I know that you are familiar with the castle, although there are a few paths very few have come across.
*Passes the wand over the parchment, a map drawing itself out, showing her the shortest route from her future class room to her dwellings. He passes the page to her.*
Forgive me for not escorting you myself, but unfortunately I have limited time on my hands.

*her smile faultered a bit, but she managed to keep a bit of a smile on her face as she took the page from him*
Of course, Professor. I won't keep you any longer. I'm sure that I can find my way around.
*she stood up, fixing her dress slightly*
I look forward to working with you again. I will bring my things from the Leaky Cauldron this evening. Thank you again.
*she turned to leave, gathering her things and walking toward the doorway as she studied the map*
