The History professor nodded at each answer, taking into account everything that was being said, but not really saying anything back. Quote:

Really, Scabior? Ellie raised an eyebrow. "Care of Magical Creatures is usually outside. We're probably working with a creature." Seemed....obvious.
Like the Kinglsey/Lawson lesson. Although, they didn't really work with creatures then, they became creatures. But it was more or less the same thing. The look that the sixth year gave him did not go unnoticed. Scabior simply gave the girl a hard stare before turning back to the rest of the class. Quote:

Melanie looked around, wondering what aspect of the grounds would possibly be relevant to History of Magic. She was certainly looking forward to working with some kind of magical creature though, if that was in fact what they were doing. The most exotic animals she'd ever seen were in a muggle zoo, so she was excited to see what kinds of animals existed in the wizarding world. Melanie loved animals and had a bit of a bleeding heart for them; her own cat was even a stray picked up from the humane society. Scabior watched with interest as he noticed the first year looking around the ground. That was a start. Looking at their surroundings. Quote:

That was just to practice, though, he didn't yet have anything worth noting. When Professor Scabior posed the first question, Eino's hand was raised. "Well, I know why this isn't, and it couldn't possibly be because we are studying Gytrashes, but we most certainly and undoubtedly will be learning about something that is inconvenienced in a small and enclosed classroom setting." He wouldn't mind studying Gytrashes, though, but the bigger the creature, the more fun. "....Not quite Mr. Uronen, though nice job thinking outside the box." The prefect always seemed to do that. He was a tad...weird. Quote:

When Lily thought she had an answer, she put up her hand waiting to be called upon. "I think we are having the joint class outside so that we will have a returning teacher assisting a new teacher whose class is typically held outside, Care of Magical Creatures is typically held outside that is." Lily said once it was her turn to speak. Now that is using my head. Lily thought to herself. And nobody has thought of that so far. She thought smiling to herself. "That's...a good guess." Scabior looked over at William. "Though I doubt Professor Williamson would admit to needing my assistance." He probably did. The man wasn't that smart. Quote:

That likely wasn't the answer they were looking for though, so Vashti raised her hand and offered a different answer. "I'd guess because the creature - or creatures - that we will be studying the history of-" that was what they would be doing, right? How else did you connect these two classes together? (And how else was she going to be able to get through this lesson if they didn't study some kind of history?) "-will be present for the lesson, and they might not fit inside a classroom, or they are best studied when outside in their natural habitat." "What we are studying definitely would not be able to fit inside of a classroom." He gave a small smile. -------------
"Most of your answers have to do with...creatures not blending well in classrooms...which, I can't deny. Though, that isn't exactly why we are outside today."
"Today we aren't studying one specific creature or one moment in history. Our focus today is on-" Scabior jabbed his thumb behind him. "The Hogwarts lake." Yes. The lake. "Obviously we are all familiar with the lake, and if you are not, well, it's right there get familiar with it- perhaps even introduce yourself to it." But not NOW because then you would be talking over him. "The lake has been a part of Hogwarts since the castle was created 1,000 years ago. Now why do you think, the founders included a lake within Hogwarts? And how do you guys think it has been used in the past?"
