Author's notes: Thanks for stepping up and helping with the pinch hit! We really appreciate it. Hope you enjoy your giftlet.


'Professor Black?'

Sirius smirked. 'Has a nice ring, doesn't it?'

Remus tried not to choke as he swallowed his butterbeer. 'Did McGonagall's left eye twitch?'

'I'll have you remember that I'm absolutely ace at Transfiguration.'

He sputtered. 'You suggested taking on her classroom? I'm surprised she didn't summarily toss you out on your arse.'

'You also seem to have forgotten that rather large soft spot she has for me and my arse.'

Remus rolled his eyes and finishing off his drink, he signaled to the waitress to bring another. 'I think you overestimate the value of your scrawny arse.'

Sirius ignored him. 'I reckoned she'll have her hands rather full with the rebuilding and the settling parents nerves and the like. So unless she plans to employ liberal use of that unregistered time tuner of hers, she's going to need me.'

'Need you?' he asked as the waitress set down two fresh drinks. 'You're as likely to add to her headaches as to help them.'

'Oh, ye of little faith, Remus.'

'It isn't a matter of faith so much as a matter of being there to experience your first tenure at Hogwarts.'

'Pish posh. You're being selective in your memory.'

'Only as much as you apparently are. So when does your illustrious tenure start?'

'She said I could settle in this weekend.'

Remus shook his head, stood and grabbed his coat.

'Where are you going?'

'I've got to go let Harry know I need reschedule this weekend as his godfather is going to need a chaperone.'

Sirius grinned. 'Brilliant! Should have known I'd be able to sucker you into clean-up duty.'

Ha, cute! Sirius as a professor is a rather scary idea to contemplate, though I'm sure he'd be the most popular one. ;)

[sambethe.livejournal.com]

The idea makes me cackle a bit.

Cheers!

Oh, that was truly adorable!! THANK YOU!! And this was a total surprise, too.

I could totally see Sirius teaching at Hogwarts. All the girls would swoon and nobody would dare act-up in his class. Besides, he knows all the tricks, and the best teachers are often the ones who were "problem kids" when they were in school because they know exactly what their students are up to.

I love that you brought McGonagall into it. (She's kind of a theme this year, is she not?) He sputtered. 'You suggested taking on her classroom? I'm surprised she didn't summarily toss you out on your arse.'

'You also seem to have forgotten that rather large soft spot she has for me and my arse.'

Remus rolled his eyes and finishing off his drink, he signaled to the waitress to bring another. 'I think you overestimate the value of your scrawny arse. LOL.
Honestly, I DO think that she probably had a soft-spot for Sirius. Why wouldn't she? Besides, as a former teacher I know that you always have a soft-spot for the smart-arses as long as they're good at heart.

You're more than welcome. I was glad for the chance to write, even if short.

And yes, my M is fond of Sirius, no matter the glares. And you're right, there are some smart asses that are endearing in their own ways.

hehehe professor black. ^^
i can see it now.

McGonigall: Professor Black! 50 Points fro griffindor! you cannot use students as demonstration objects!

[sambethe.livejournal.com]

Ha! Love it.

Thanks!

[toujours-nigel.livejournal.com]

ahahaha, that is wonderful.

He'd be great, too.

[sambethe.livejournal.com]

That or vast swathes of the students will end up transfigured into something rather gross.

Cheers!

[secretsolitaire.livejournal.com]

Hee, this is fun!

[sambethe.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

May I go back to school and be in his class? Very cute story.

[sambethe.livejournal.com]

You are braver than me. I think his temper would get the better of him, in the end.

Cheers!

Ha! Why don't we see more of this scenario? Did we have to wait until the last few books settled down into out memory to play around with canon more freely? I'd love to read more here. Enjoyed! M.

[sambethe.livejournal.com]

I'd be curious to see what happens myself. I'm just worried that his temper might get the better of him when dealing with teenagers en masse.

Though maybe, he like us, would have a chance to settle down/in if given the chance to actually *live* a bit, huh?

Thanks!

Heh, Sirius as professor is adorable and frightening at the same time. Loved it!

[sambethe.livejournal.com]

Most definitely frightening. :)

Cheers!

[kg99.livejournal.com]

That was lovely. Would love to see a sequel!

[sambethe.livejournal.com]

I think it leads to entire classes transfigured into weasels.

Thanks!

So funny! Sirius, a professor at Hogwarts? Whoa, that's gonna be quite an experience for the students. :)
