A delightful anonymous soul asked for a Christmas party in the faculty lounge, with perhaps a hint of a supersecret romance between two very unlikely staff members. Hey barkeep, I'll have a shot of UST. Make it a double!
Happy Holidays, Mystery Friend!! xoxo
SFW!!

This is very different than much of your work, but I think I like it for all of that. The characters are all fundamentally recognizable, and the roughly caricatured style makes you stop and look, pay attention. The other cool thing you've done is convey just how bloody awkward a staff party might be -- everyone has a lot of physical space between themselves, and with the exception of Hooch, all seem wound up a little tight. Pomona is seated, but there's something reserved, drawn in and close, in the position of her limbs.
Dumbledore's shoes make me giggle, too. Thought you needed to know that.

I did need to know that about Albus' fancy dress shoes!
Thanks so much - I'm glad you liked it in spite of the oddballness! 😜

If it was in color, you'd know he just wanted to show off his fancy pedicure.

(I hope you're feeling better although from the tags on this post it sounds like you're still in the trenches. *hugs* You need to feel better for Christmas, that's an order!)
