I have Mason here, the herbology professor and Hufflpuff HoH and Fiona McCarthy is the Hufflepuff House matron. She's new this year and very intent on making sure her flock is happy and well-cared for. She has two daughters, one in her third year and Eilish McCarthy as a first year!

My only student is Ramona Pendergast who is a boisterous first year Gryffindor, so do with that what you will!

Thank you for the welcome <3

Cori is likely a “pleasure to have in class” kind of student, but she doesn’t go out of her way to be a teacher’s pet. Herbology is likely one of the classes she struggles with more, because living things like plants aren’t really as “by the book” as other subjects and she isn’t exactly gifted with a green thumb lol speaking off which, I have a lot of classes to catch up on x3 As for Mrs McCarthy - in truth, she probably makes Cori a touch uncomfortable: she’s never had anyone to fill the maternal spot in her life that was left by her parents’ death (as she’s always understood that her Uncle and Aunt aren't replacements), so I imagine that McCarthy’s disposition is a little much for Cori – but she is respectful because this is her house matron all the same. Maybe being an orphan does get more attention from the Hufflepuff matron, though?

I love all these first years that have the possibility to harass Cori that people are offering up xD I have a feeling by the time she reaches sixth year, her “secret” soft spot for younger students is gonna be a poorly kept one at that. I’d be happy to thread/brainstorm a thread for Cori and little boisterous Mona if you want!
