Professor Serena Argon was sitting at the far corner of the bar in the Three Broomsticks. She had already 8 glasses of flaming whiskey, and she did not look all that well. Her black top rimmed glasses hung on her nose, about to fall off. Her face was pale and tired, and she lay on the bar table, exhausted. Her hair was up in it's usualy right sided single bang with a single braid encircling her head. The rest of her hair was placed up in a messy bun.
Serena Argon's attire was just like it was everyday, a long dress, today crimson that fit tightly around her waste and ended in ruffles. Her robe was it's usual dark black.
Serena had been drinking because, today was just not a good day for her, hour after hour, people walked up to her, excalaiming she was a fraud and that no one could tell the future. This stunch Serena, after all, she did come from a long line of family seers. And there was no way she was a fake.
She lolled her head on the bar table, trying to regain controll of her consciousness. "Aye lady, you's better gets out, we're closing soon." Said the voice of a nearby bartender who sounded so didstant. Serena lifted her hand up and winced, moving it too fast made her feel a painfull headache.
She slumped back down and lay there, wondering, if she ever was getting up.

Raven walked into the three broomsticks seeking a familiar face. She knew very few people and decided to sit in her usual seat in the corner. But someone was already there. The face looked familiar.
"Professor?" Raven squinted at the women. "Is that you?"

Professor Serena Argon took her last sip of her flaming whiskey. She rubbed her face, and decided to get going. She was about to stand up when a small voice piped up. She moved her head slightly and looked up at a small girl, no doubt a first year, she was surprised that the girl knew her, after all she had never met her in her life. Unless, a vision counted that was.
Serena quickly straightened up and look at the girl. She fixed her glasses and stiaghtened her robe. "Why hello there young one, why are you here, and what may I call you by?" Serena asked lightly.

"My name is Raven-Raven Sheerwood. I'm a first year." Raven said. Wouldn't she already know this, Raven wondered but decided not to ask. It appeared that the Professor had had a bad day. Or week. Or perhaps life. She saw Professor Argon straigthen her glasses. She didn't realize her teachers would drink so much. She looked the disshelved woman up and down.
"Is everything okay? Do you need help?"

Professor Argon, looked at the little girl, her vision was begining to come back, that was a good thing. She turned away from the girl and looked back at the barkeeper. "Samus, pass me a ginger ale." She said, turning back to the girl.
She straightened her glasses again and smoothed out her hair. "Ah yes, Raven Sheerwood, Ravenclaw first year." She said with a slight smile. "Well. I'm doing pretty dandy, I won't be needing any help." She said turning back, and reaching for her ginger ale.
Professor Argon then turned back to Raven, "Well aren't you too young to be out here, aren't you?"

"No, well, yes, but I sit here sometimes. I don't drink anything. Except Butterbeer sometimes. Samus makes them special for me," Raven answered. She looked around. There were a few others here. No one she knew though. She wondered what Professor Argon was doing here.
"Are you already prepared for the next school year?"

Professor Argon took another sip of her ginger ale, the dizzyness was slightly rendering itself. She looked back at Raven who had just finished speaking, and began to answer, "Just a few more supplies I need, probably more books, crystall balls, tea, cups. You know, things I need for my new divinations class." She finished drinking her ginger ale.

Allista starred at the poor exsuse for a member of Ravenclaw talking to her Divination teacher. Allista knew that the child might not know that her teacher was Pureblood. Nor the fact that how she new that she was a Professer at Hogwarts. Becasue she was only a first year and never meet her. The child never saw her before becasue she never went to Hogwarts before...
Allista took a sip of her Butterbeer
She got up and walked up to the Professer
"Hi Professer Argon. How are you it's nice to see you. Do you know Raven Sheerwood?"

"She wouldn't be talking to me if she didn't, would she," answered Raven feeling particularly brave today. Though she had never been to Hogwarts, she knew this woman was a professor because she had seen her previously while buying some extra quills.

"Well, Allista, I knew she was a teacher when the people she was talking to called her professor. It doesn't take a genius to figure that one out. But it does take average intelligence. Which is why you couldn't figure it out," Raven retorted. And turned away from Allista and went to order a butterbeer.

Serena looked up and nodded at Allista, one of her Divinations students, the best at it too. "Why hello Allista, how are you today?" But before she got a respond, Professor Argon saw that both Allista and the young first year were already fighting.
Serena turned away from them and let them go on, there wasn't much she could do, then after awhile she turned back around, and responded in a high voice, "Young ladies, will you please stop this nonsense arguement!"

Justin was walking around Hogsmead and looking around for his friends when he spotted his divination teacher and two other students in the Three Broomsticks. He walked in and told Madam Rosmerta for a butterbeer and walked over to the Professor. He walked up to them and said " Hi Professor Argon. Who are these two though one looks familiar."
