[ Albus leans in, grinning as if about to impart some secret wisdom. ]
-- Should worst come to worst, you only ever needs remain a day ahead of the students.
[ He waggles a long finger, straightening back into his chair. ]
Managed to cover an entire unit on automobiles that way, when our usual professor was out ill. As you are an expert in your field, Miss Carnahan, I expect that you'll meet with little difficulty on that count.
If there is any assistance that you require in the organization of it all, do but let me know. The first class is always the most daunting, but I have little doubt that you'll wow them.
At any rate, I suppose that between the two of us we shall simply have to leave any discussion of the pyramids' construction to the theoretical, alone. For the best -- Asgard's citizenry might not appreciate the change in aesthetic.
[ That's odd. Several more biscuits seems to have disappeared. Bit hungry, were we, Dumbles? He munches for a moment, then considers. Conversations with Severus have been an uncertain thing, at best, he comes out of them with little solid idea of where the two of them stand. A rocky, unknown shore, hewn from too much unsettled history.
Under the usual circumstances, he'd take it as cue to forge ahead until striking luck. Asgard is anything but usual. ]
I do find myself missing teaching, but I remain ill at ease with the idea of taking payment for the work at a school that bears my own name...or rather, that of the potential that I share it with.
A foolish reservation for the work itself, of course -- I've offered to lend a hand with the maintenance, and there's no reason not to volunteer in other capacities as called for.
Then there is the small matter of whether I have anything of note to teach.

I suppose that I might always offer a very short history of horseless carriages.
