Hogwarts: I Already Graduated, and the System Finally Arrived

‘Dumbledore, he’s already graduated—why is he back at the school?!’

‘Oh, Severus, don’t be nervous. He’s the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor!’

‘Oh, damn it, if I catch him using a cauldron to eat hotpot at school again, I’ll duel him.’

...

‘You are the worst class I’ve ever taught!’

‘But, Professor, isn’t this your first time teaching?’

...

‘Miss Granger, you’re the study monitor. Every morning you’ll lead them in reading by the Black Lake.’

‘Mr. Potter, you’re the sports monitor. After morning reading every day, lead them on a lap around the Black Lake!’

...

‘One hundred days until the O.W.L. exams count down’

‘Burn your bridges and fight for all-O.W.L. excellence!’

Douglas Holmes, a Hufflepuff with an Eastern soul, returns to the school three years after graduation to apply for a professorship, bringing a very different style to Hogwarts once again.
