What a lovely tease of a story!

You pack so much about these characters into 2400 words. I found myself envying Hooch, who has yet to discover the wonders of the deputy headmistress.

[Sh]e wasn't going to let her chances be spoilt by some uptight, overly-punctual Gorgon at the gate. Quite right, too.

And if she turned out to be one of those scolding bosses who was always taking everyone to task, Hooch could entertain herself with naughty fantasies about her (a favorite technique for dealing with intimidating players). Very sensible. Minerva would approve.

At one point, Hooch saw the headmaster throw her a questioning glance, and Minerva nodded. Wonderful little moment!

"Plenty of old women go there, too. Er, well, I mean. . ." LOL!

Going on my recs list, of course.
