[Everything about that text really threw him for a while. Why did this man have his job? Did Gilderoy quit? Or did those little bastards rat him out after all? ... No, it wasn't possible.

Oh, isn't this a funny coincidence. You must be my replacement? Ah, yes, I did wonder what chap had the fortune of taking over. Lovely job, great children, I simply didn't have the time to commit to the job. I'm sure you understand. Busy life and all.
Oh I'm very glad to hear, I did sign more than a few copies while I was there. And not just for students, I don't mind admitting. Why even Dumbledore requested himself a copy, I'm proud to say.
