Cassie sat with a big smile on her face. The first Divination class of term and it was just so exciting she could barely contain it. She just loved teaching and loved the students. The positivity just bouncing all around her. Though on the outside she was calmer than most had probably seen her last year. Sitting instead of standing she sipped her tea and let the music just relax her mind. As the first child entered she let her green eyes watch him come in.
SPOILER!!: All your amazing entrances Quote:

"What on earth is a snap cup," he whispered to himself. Walking over to a pillow and staring dumbly at it for a moment - sit... on the floor?? - he set his bag down and pulled out his quill. While he considered what to put in the snap cup - still unsure what it was - he decided to start with tea.
Pouring himself a cup, he considered. What was he proud of? Father had always said, most of all, to be proud of where he came from. But after his first few days at Hogwarts, he wasn't so sure.
He walked up to the snap cup, balancing his tea in one hand. Writing quite precisely, he put the only thing that came to mind and dropped it in the cup. Almost giggling to herself as she heard his whisper she just continued to sip her tea. He’d find out in tie what her fabtastic snap cup was. It was certainly one of the most highlighted parts of her day. She gave him a little nod hello since he hadn’t talked and went back to sipping on her peppermint tea. Quote:

She was in her batman jammies, and was ready to rock and roll. As she walked into the classroom she spotted the professor. The instructions said to be quiet so instead of her normal greeting she gave the professor a big smile. Grabbing a cup of tea and some parchment, she thought about what to write. What was she proud of? Oh and there was one of the twins from last term. Cassie gave her a little finger wiggle and hello nod. All the quiet students coming in she just knew it was the lavender and music making them calm. Quote:

"ohhh" he said out loud to himself.. he he he… smoothing down his cowboy jammies he wished he could dress like this everyday!
Picking up some parchment he wrote down what he was most proud of. There was Mr. Bay, Cassie gave him a nod and wider grin. In an almost whispered voice from her seat she spoke finally, “Congratulations on prefect, I think it is very well deserved.” He had risked his life for the school last term. Quote:
Originally Posted by Jasmine Okay this was going to be interesting. Jasmine had worn her most comfortable jammies and slippers to Divination class as requested. As she entered the room, she couldn't help but notice the different decor. It was very mellow now in the room and the incense and music just added to the vibe. Fortunately there was tea because the room just screamed "take a nap"! Hello Professor Cassie, Jasmine said as she spotted the Professor. "How was your summer?" Next she headed straight for the caffeine and poured herself a cup of tea. Someone who wished to speak, Cassie looked at the Ravenclaw prefect with a wide grin. “Hello Jasmine, My somewhere was wonderful. I hope yours was too. Congratulations on becoming prefect.” The young lady was a very good student in her class last year so it wasn’t a surprise that she was now wearing the badge. Quote:

Okay so maybe the subject was growing on him.
Benny made his way up the ladder to the classroom, careful in his movements through the trapdoor since it wasn't the easiest and safest set of stairs. Stepping up inside, he spotted the professor there with just a few fellow students including two housemates. Bay and AJ. "Hello Professor," he said as he chose a seat and put his belongings down. He knew the drill and wasn't about to sit down just yet.
He retrieved a piece of parchment and took a quill from his bag as he tried to think of what he was proud of. Not much had happened lately so there wasn't much to go on. Finally she scribbled something down and folded it up, slipping it in the cup before taking some tea and returning to his seat.
"Hey AJ," he greeted his youngest housemate and friend. She was just adoring all the pajamas as they came into the room. She knew some of her best readings were early in the morning in her pajamas, so why not hold class the same way. “Good morning Benjamin, I hope you had a lovely summer.” Did he get some tea, she hoped all of the students picked up a cup. Quote:

What Lex did do was find a pair of pajamas, change from the ones she'd slept in and thrown her hair into an oh so messy bun to match the attire. Really, what else was there to do?
There was a certain level of dread as she ascended the ladder to the classroom but what met her at the top...actually...wasn't bad. It was decent by all standards and looked far more promising than anything they did last year. Dare she hope? No, not even for a second, but she would silently approve of this much and hope it didn't all go sour. "Good morning Professor Morgan." Apparently Professor Smiles wasn't appropriate? Pfft.
The Gryffindor flopped onto a cushion at Jasmine's table and did the mandated writing of proud moments thing. Having only just woken up a few hours ago, she hadn't gotten the chance to do many things. Still. As the new head girl walked in Cassie just sat grinning and sipping her tea. She couldn’t say that Alexa Cambridge wasn’t a shock to be picked as head girl, she had heard plenty of stories last term and her own little issues at the beginning, but everything was certainly behind them and she never faulted students for their own lack of knowledge. “Good morning Miss Cambridge, Congratulations on becoming head girl. A very important role for your final year.” Quote:

Anyways she was here!
"Hello professor!" Cheerful today she was.
And she'd survived her first detention somehow. With that in mind her addition to the snap cup was on point: Finishing off her tea and getting up to get another cup her green eyes lifted as she heard another student coming up into the classroom. “Good morning, good morning. Lovely to see you today.” She was new Cassie thought, but she was awful with names and human faces at times, so she wouldn’t suggest her being new just in case. Quote:

But on the other hand .... it was Divination and that wasn't a subject that Clara thought she'd have much interest in. For reasons. Also, people .... there were going to be people and especially recently, she hadn't been doing so well around people. Definitely not around large groups of people.
But that was something she was going to have to deal with ...
With a small sigh, Clara dusted off her pajamas (which were the exact ones she'd been in ALL day, shh) and headed up the Divination ladder. Once she reached the top and had entered the room, she was hit by the scent of ... lavender? and the colour red. In her opinion the two .... didn't quite go, but who was she to question the professor's taste?
Speaking of the professor, she was sat at the front of the class sipping a mug of something. Probably tea. The redhead gave her a warm smile."Hello, Professor," she said politely, waving her fingers ever so slightly before moving further inside the classroom and looking up at what was written on the board. Hm. 'Find a seat' was the first thing and that was simple enough to do - she chose a central seat. As for the tea .... she didn't like tea, so she'd pass on that one. Now .... something she was proud of?
There ... unfortunately ... wasn't a lot and it took her a fair few minutes to think of something. Seeing another face she was sure was new Cassie gave a sweet smile, “Hello dear” giving a nice finger wave she went back to smiling and sipping her tea. Quote:

Finally entering the room,he let out a tired little huff. He had forgotten how tiring going to divination was, still it was good excercise and he was thankful for that-well kinda anyway.
Doing a quick scan of the room he spotted the professor along with instructions on the board. Before he started thinking of what he was most pround of he decided to greet the proffesor,afterall his mother would ring his ear if he didnt.
"Morning professor" He greeted politely.
With that out of the way ,he got down to thinking,hmmm...oh! quickly grabbing a quill he took to the piece of parchment
Cassie was starting on her second cup of tea when more students started to make their way in. Giving a grin towards the Slytherin boy she nodded, “Good morning, how are you this fine day?
It was a wonderful day so everyone was hopefully doing well. Quote:

He didn't own any slippers, however, and had to resort to just grabbing the nearest pairs of shoes and slipping them on his socked feet, before grabbing his school bag to head up here.
As his head poked up and into the room, he had a quick look around, as the professors had a habit of making changes to their classrooms all the time. But this one was cool, all laid-back and relaxed. Toby could deal with that these days.
"Hey Professor," the Hufflepuff said softly to the professor, smiling at her and waving slightly but not wanting to be too loud, in case he disturbed anyone's relaxation.
Once properly in the classroom, he headed up to the front of the room where the snap cup was waiting, and added his own contribution: “Hello, good day.” She greeted another Hufflepuff that had entered the room. Weren’t they all just having fun in their pajamas. She just loved pajama day. Quote:

After pouring herself some tea, Halcyon moved to an empty table where she could still remain close to the center of the classroom. Once she was kneeling beside the table, she smoothed her nightgown on her lap and began rummaging in her bag for a quill.
It didn't take a second thought before she wrote down: Seeing Halcyon walking into the classroom Cassie gave the fourth year a finger wiggle and smile. Speaking to her just recently in one of the corridors. She just loved visiting with the students, but right now she was enjoying them coming in so nice and quiet and getting right to their snap cup moments.
[quotes=Devlin] First class for Devlin. He made his way in, wondering why they'd need to be in their pajamas, and as comfortable as it was, it made him uncomfortable. Didn't professors detest that type of idea?
No greet to the Professor was given. That would only happen if and when Devlin figured out if he liked this lady. Yep.
He saw the instructions and got out a piece of paper and took some time to think things through. What was he proud of? [/quote]
She watched as more children came in and one that looked at her cup a little funny. Oh how she loved to see the students reactions to her snap cup. It was such a glorious cup and has so much inspiration already sitting inside. She couldn’t wait to get up and read everyone’s proud moments. Quote:

He saw the instructions and got out a piece of paper and took some time to think things through. What was he proud of? Smiling as she saw the other one of the twins coming in, Cassie gave Angel a little nod and watched as she got to the snap cup. She was already starting to get a bit fidgety to want to go welcome each student by standing at the door and snapping for them. Snapping would come, but right now she needed them to be relaxed. So she just sipped her tea. Quote:

Noticing the professor near by, Noel simply WAVED at her - in a 'Hey you, I see you' kind of way.
Reading what was written on the board, Noel sighed before quickly writing down whatever he thought of first and dropped it in the snap cup. She saw the wave from the Hufflepuff boy and returned it with a smile and a finger wiggle. She also nodded in his direction. Was the room too comfortable, she noticed some were looking sleepy, but that just made them more relaxed didn’t it? Well either way she wasn’t worried at all. Quote:

"Hello, Professor Cassie! Did you have a good summer?" Spotting Jasmine, she sent her friend a wave before going to sit by Bay and getting some tea. "Hiiii," she said to him happily. Now it was time for her to think of something that made her proud. On her parchment she wrote: Seeing a very familiar Lux coming into the room she gave the girl a beaming smile and a finger wiggle. “I did Lux thank you soo much for asking. I hope yours was well too.” Maybe she had spoken in her normal chipper voice when she was trying to stay calm and quiet, but it was just too hard not too when she was just so excited. Quote:

"Good morning, Professor," she said with a smile as she passed the front of the room, pausing to write her note for the snap cup. Goodness everyone seemed eager to start lessons this term and Cassie just couldn’t be happier. The excitement bouncing off the students was addictive and she couldn’t just sit any longer. Getting up she moved a little towards the board and turned as another addressed her. “Good Morning Marigold, congratulations on Prefect this term.” She had heard who the prefect were over the summer and made sure to remember their faces. Quote:
Originally Posted by Gabriel ....He....could do this. A room full of other people....and ONE teacher...Uh, he could...do this.
Hopefully.
Maybe.
Uh...
Gabriel...had just made his way up the ladder, and immediately froze upon seeing all the people already littering the Divination classroom. This was a situation he'd never had to endure before. Being home schooled meant lessons were one and one...or one on two, if Ruby woke up for them. This....uh....This was...........new....and.....overwhelming.
Yes, overwhelming...
...but Gabe still force himself up into the room, keeping towards the back and out of sight. Out of sight, out of mind. People wouldn't...uh, trying to speak to him....or make him make words...and what was this about....uh, writing something to put in a cup?!....That meant walking up there...in front of the others. Uh....
VERY SLOWLY, Gabe took his seat, IN THE BACK, and pulled out some parchment and black ink; hands already cold and clammy. He'd worry about organizing quills and colors when they got down to the note-taking...and breathing. What was breathing? If he breathed too loud, people might LOOK at him... Seeing another new face, Cassie couldn’t help but bite her lip in worry. How on Merlin’s beard was she going to remember all these names and faces. She tried to imagine them as little animals. That might work better. A classroom of puppies and squirrels she could remember, but a classroom of people. At times she wished her gift was more towards humans than animals, but it was special just like she was. So she just continued to smile. Watching the young man move to the back and look a bit white, was he ill? Keeping her green eyes on him she noticed him writing but not moving. Sensing that she understood, Cassie got up and moved to the back leaning down close to him, “Hello there, why don’t I just take that up for you then you don’t have to get off the comfy pillow.” She gave him a smile and a wink before heading back to the front to drop his parchment in. No need for him to have to go up in front of the class if he was nervous. Quote:

He smiled to his fellow students and then he saw the teacher looking comfy. He smiled and bowed to her. "Hello professor, nice pajamas you got there.." he commented. There were a little too pink for his tastes but hey she made them work. Now he saw the famous parchment and he needed to write something he was proud of. He thought about it and once he got his idea he wrote it down with his quill. Once she was back up at the front she noticed another Hufflepuff coming into the room, “Good morning Kace, thank you.” She beamed as he headed for a seat. Quote:
Originally Posted by Layla Having heard that Divination was one of those subjects that wasn't necessarily 'accurate', Layla headed into the classroom dubious of the lesson ahead. She had read that some people considered it nonsense, it was impossible to tell into the future and often the Professors were a little 'over-exaggerated' but she, as a new pupil at the school was willing to give it a try. That didn't stop the fact that she had little to no expectations however.
Nor did it calm the fact that she was feeling an inch of nervousness over the idea that it was the first time that she would perform some aspect of magic that wasn't entirely accidental.
Wearing her comfiest baggy pajamas and a fluffy dressing gown because she had to walk through the castle in them, the fifth year crossed the classroom to write down her 'proud moment' or whatever it was. She took a glance at the professor and offered her a small smile. She was tiny. And FAR too pink for her liking. The Ravenclaw neatly inscribed on the paper a small message.
'I'm proud that I am giving this new change of life a go.'
Simple but so very true. She dropped the paper into the glittery and over-the-top snap cup whatever that meant and wandered back across the room sidestepping the pillows on the floor only to flop down onto one at the very back and cross her legs. She did not look up to see who else was in the room nor did she pay any attention to what else was happening.
Thankfully it wasn't too far back to her common room considering the classroom was on the seventh floor. As soon as this lesson was over she would be heading straight back to the comfort of her dorm room and finish reading the textbook she had started earlier that morning.
__________________ Another new face, yep the thirty three year old was now very nervous about remember each and everyone of them. Giving her a super sweet smile she nodded as the Ravenclaw made her way to the snap cup. Taking hold of her tea again she gave it another sip. Quote:

He walked into the room amd immediately took in the look and feel of the place. He wanted to go back to sleep already. He looked around the room at everyone present and spotted Gabe at a table alone and made a bee line towards him. Poor Gabe. Jere wouldnt force him to sit with a stranger. He offered him a smile and took a seat before getting out his things and glancing at the board. ...
Something he was proud of? ... well he was proud of a lot of things really. Tapping his quill on his chin he thought for a long moment before nodding slowly to himself. Watching a Gryffindor come into the room she smiled and nodded at him as he found his seat. Oh he’s sitting with the nervous looking boy. Good good Cassie wanted no nervous in her room. Her room was more for happy and well today relaxed feelings. Quote:

Even though she hadn't actually slept in her choice of attire today, Sophie figured it could pass just fine as sleepwear and smiled at Morgan upon entering. "Good morning, professor." Super polite and all. She hated doing the cup thing, though, and tried not to show it on her face too much as she followed instructions and added her proud thing to the cup: Seeing a young lady come into the room she gave her beaming smile, “Good morning. How are you today?” The pajamas were just wonderful she loved them all. Quote:

After jotting down something she was proud of and settling for a pillow not too close to the front, the Slytherin flopped down on a pillow and allowed herself to sink in.
Yes. This miiight get rid of her foul mood. Maybe.
Was it possible to sneak in a nap? Fireballs! She should have bought a pair of those glasses with eyes. That way she'd seem like she was paying attention while she slept. Yay! Another face she knew. Cassie felt a little less anxious seeing familiar faces. Giving the girl a small smile and hello nod she watched her do her snap cup entry. Quote:

No, Zeke sported his grey fleece track-pants, with thick black socks and a long-sleeve black top. At least it was comfier than robes, those had a habit of slipping off his shoulders and making him uncomfortable.
Emily had told him not to bother with the subject, but he wanted to make his mind up for himself, after all... if there was a remote chance that he might be good at it, because he was good at 'nonsense' apparently, then he would give it a whirl.
Entering the room, on-time and slightly early, Zeke glanced around at the cushions and the orb stuff. Cool beans. "He--hello Misss," he greeted before stepping further into the room and claiming a cushion at one of the tables, Zeke plopped his bag down beside him and looked around some more. There were a few faces he recognised, and so he waved to them - Lex, Angel, Benny, Lux too and a couple others. Before...
....
ACHOOOOOOO!
...
Ugh.
Why did it have to be sooooooooooo smelly in here? It's like a washing machine vomited and DIED in here. The floral scent didn't agree with him it seemed.
It was only then that he noticed the board. From the table in front of him, he took a bit of partment and produced his quill before scrawling a short message. Once complete, he approached the 'snap cup' and placed the folded bit of parchment inside. Her green eyes scanning the clock almost time to start yes, but so many students were still coming in. This made Cassie super happy and even more bouncy at the moment. Giving the young boy a grin, “Good morning.” She was starting to realize she should have asked to make name tags, but she would deal.

Pyjamas and tea?
This was officially the best class ever.
Grabbing himself a cup of peppermint tea, he smiled as he sat himself down, taking a sip of the tea which was absolutely amazingand thought for a moment. What was he proud of??? Seeing a young boy walk in she gave yet another small smile and wave. Could they start yet? She was so ready to get started, but no she would wait for everyone. Quote:

Her long blonde hair was braided to her left side and a Panda ears headband on the top of her head. The fourth year walked into the Divinations classroom with a bright smile on her face she carried her stuffed animal Panda named Oreo. Words or actions could not describe how happy she was to be here.
Emmylou looked up at the board and read over what they had to do. It looked really cool in here. Calming and relaxing. It just seemed wonderful. Why couldn't all classes be like this? Emmylou breathed in the beautiful smell of lavender. Emmylou waved at Professor Morgan and found a table where her friends were sitting at. She grabbed a piece of parchment. Seeing Emmylou walk into the room Cassie gave her a smile, “Hello Emmylou it’s nice seeing you this morning. Oh and who do we have here? A little visitor.” She gushed over the stuffed animal. She didn’t mind it at all being in her room and she sipped her tea some more. Though she did take note that she sat next to the same Hufflepuff as last term. Quote:

Directions where up on board and she plucked some parchment from the table. The question was simple and Paulie's answer seemed pretty blunt and boring, but it was the first thought in her head. She bit down on her lip, scribbling. Seeing another young student come in she gave a smile and finger wiggle, but the girl seemed eager to find a seat so she decided not to say hello. That could certainly be for later and the music well it was starting to calm her bouncy a bit. Quote:

and Yet, he still managed to come to class wearing Pajamas. How you ask? Simple, Ceorlic was lazy. He woke up 15 minutes before class began. Rushing he had not realized he was getting his tie on around his Maroon pajamas. He threw risk to the wind, not caring if this Professor was strict with her dress code and threw on his Robe over his Pajamas and Tie.
His hair still sticking up from Bed-Head Strike-Galbraith scratched the top of his head while yawning and quickly moved that hand into a wave to the Professor sitting in her chair. He moved down through the classroom and plopped down onto a cushion..cushion...CUSHION! That was it, that is all he needed for his master plan. His brilliant idea from last night just needed Cushioning!
He read the decided to read the whole board up front then looked over at the SnapCup. Another new face entered the room and Cassie’s eyes widened. She hoped the boy was alright he looked like he had a rough night’s sleep and why was he in his robes? She could see the pajamas underneath so she found it a bit interesting, though she wouldn’t say anything. Uniqueness was what made everyone so special and if this was the boys unique ways coming through she would not discourage it. Quote:

Sophie approached the Snap Cup, or whatever it was the professor called this thing. She grabbed a small piece of parchment and a quill and wrote: Seeing a familiar Slytherin walk through the doors, Cassie smiled and gave her a little wave for greeting. Glancing at the clock she knew it was about time to get started. Quote:

"Hello, Professor Morgan,'' he greeted the woman enthusiastically. "It's great to see you again.'' His eyes shifted to the snap cup. Knowing it would be there, Adi pulled out his parchment containing the already written proud moment. “Hello Adi, it’s very good to see you too. Congratulations by the way on your prefect appointment.” It was exciting to see all the young students wearing badges. Quote:

This was tickling his french sensibilities so far.
Rob thought a moment before writing what he was proud of. Giving another student a nod and wave greeting Cassie finished her second cup of tea. Maybe she should hold off on a third one, it wouldn’t be good to need the loo in the middle of her own lesson now would it. Quote:

"HI PROFESSOR," Bianca greeted whispering loudly. "HI EVERYONE. I'M BIANCA."
She waved a hand at everyone too before plopping dropping a little slip of paper into the cup and flopping herself on a pillow. She had written upon the paper "I'm proud of being me."
Anyways. Pillows.
Bianca liked pillows. Was she allowed to grab another one just for snuggling purposes?
__________________ Oh goodness this one got a look, not a mean look just a look. Why was she whisper shouting? “Hello dear, it’s nice to meet you. Welcome to class.” making sure she spoke in her normal tone voice. No one had to whisper really, class hadn’t started just yet, but she appreciated the gesture in the calming atmosphere. Quote:

"Hey," she whispered, before reading the instructions written on the board.
What was she proud of? She wrinkled her nose. The lavender smell was making it hard to think. Twirling a strand of hair around her finger, she let the curl bounce back before picking up her quill.
Quote: Cassie had shut her eyes only for a second, she wasn’t sleeping, just getting her mind ready for the lesson when she felt someone coming in. Looking towards the young Hufflepuff she gave a nod and smile. So many students today, this was just so exciting. Quote:

Samantha thought about it for a moment and then it came to her. Seeing one in blue pajamas Cassie grinned and waved. What pretty pajamas those were. She could only think that pair of blue heeled slippers would just be so adorbs with them. Quote:

Wait? Cassie turned her eyes and counted. She had only remembered the twins, but this one looked similar, but yet different. Checking her class roster that sat on her desk in the front she nodded to herself, yes there were three weren’t there. How did she miss this last term. Quote:

The first year entered the room and there was people already inside. He greeted "Hello professor" and went to find an empty seat. Everyone else was writing something and before he could ask, he read the board. Something he was proud of? Hmm. Hugo took out his quill and wrote what first came to his mind “Hello, hello welcome.” The boy looked like a first year so she assumed a welcome was very much needed. Shew as excited to get to meet the new students as well as see the older ones. Quote:

SPOILER!!: proud moment
That counted as a proud moment, right? After placing her moment in the snap cup, Penelope greeted the professor. "Hello, Professor Cassie."
Returning to the table, she poured herself a cup of tea. Looking at the crystal balls, she wondered if they were going to be crystal gazing. Beaming at the next student, Cassie gave a little finger wave. “Gooooood morning Penelope, how are you this fabulous morning?” It was fabulous Divination was about to start. Quote:

Anyway figuring that it wouldn't take her to long to here from her common room she took her time getting ready for class. She even had a little make up on that she borrowed from her new awesomely cool dormmate Bianca. She had borrowed a shirt of hers. So yeah that why the fourteen year old had make up on. Weird totally weird.
She popped up out of the trapdoor to the classroom and walked into the classroom giving Professor Morgan a smile and "Good morning, professor Morgan. Hope you had a good sumner." Wait was it still morning it felt like morning she was still in her pjs. She could get used to this. She noticed a familiar cup....
It was the return of the snap cup. She got paper and something to write with and wrote down.......
I'm proud because I'm wearing make up today. But shhhh don't tell anyone. Okay? and placed it into the cup.
Walking along the tables to a empty table. She waved to her s
Friends as she walked on finding a seat. She plopped down in one of the.... pillows at the table. Comfy pillows. She wiggled to get comfy for a second. Yep these were really comfy. The smell if lavender filled the room and the music. Was professor Morgan trying to see who would fall asleep first so she could doodle on their face with a marker? Or something? Seriously though she could take a nap now. “Good morning to you too Cinnamon. I had a wonderful summer, did you?” She hoped all her students had a great summer and now were ready to be back. Watching the young Gryffindor make her way over to a group of people she certainly made note of the boy missing from the group and sitting grumpily on the other side of the room. Students were soo interesting to watch at times. Quote:

So she left her little lady back in the dorm room with lots of toys to busy her.
Upon arriving in the classroom, Coral gave the professor a pleased grin and a curtsey, moving in further to get a better look at the board.
Something that makes you proud?
CB turned around and surveyed the room. Her eyes passed on the extremely clumsy boy she'd met at Diagon. The one who dropped all of his ink and made a HUGE mess; the one she'd sorta snuck out of Scribbulus after said incident. Then after that, her eyes landed on Soph & Tobias as well as Hallie. She hesitated momentarily. But made her move toward her sister, shooting Sophie a huge grin and a wave before taking her seat next to her sister, pulling out her sparkly pink ink, quill and parchment.
Now, now. What made her proud? Getting in her ready place in front of the classroom she smiled again as another had given her a smile. All the students just seemed so happy to be back at school it was a lovely feeling. Brought hope and energetic vibes to the room. Quote:

Which... made him feel kind of weird right now. There was nothing charming about flannel.
He plopped into a spot near his girlfriend then glanced at the board. Something he was proud of...?
He thought for a moment before scribbling something down. Giving a grin and wave to a boy in plaid she decided that she was in need of the third cup of tea. The students were still coming in and she was needing full focus from her excitement. So pouring herself another cup she blew on it to cool. Quote:

He did take a full bath last night before going to bed anyway. And Merlin, the Prefects’ bathroom was glorious, did they know?
Ethan entered the Divination Classroom through the trap door, and was welcomed by the scent of lavender. Immediately, the boy felt like going back to sleep again. Let’s just hope that the professor prepared biscuits for them to nibble on, because if not, she might end up with snoozing students. Ethan included. Making his way up, the fourth year took in the sight of the classroom, and saw the professor. “Good morning, Professor Cassie.” Ethan gave the woman a small wave and a grin. Now…where are his snakes? Ah yes. Some of them made it. Good. The prefect sat beside Hugo and gave the first year a grin. “Ready for your first class?” Small talk’s good, yeah? The fourth year know exactly what to do with his parchment, as soon as he saw the snap cup ahead.
Scribble. “Ethan, hellllllllo. I am very ready for my first class. We will be starting very soon.” She beamed and gave her first snaps of the day. She couldn’t help it, it was just too exciting to talk about her first lesson of the new term. “Congratulations by the way on becoming Prefect.” Very good job! Quote:

Either way, she had obliged, even throwing her hair up into a messy ponytail and made the short trek over to the Divination Tower.
"Hello, professor," once she entered the classroom. She quickly took a seat, rolling her eyes at a certain dorm mate who read 'wear pajamas' as 'dress up in costume' and came dressed as a lion. Really? She hoped the girl's inability to read didn't cost them house points, since those seemed important somehow.
Reading the board, Heather quickly scribbled something down on the parchment in front of her, carried said parchment to the indicated cup and returned to her seat, grabbing a cup of tea on her way. Ready, professor! “Hello, welcome. I hope you had a great summer.” beaming as she sipped her tea. Was there caffeine slipped into her favorite non caffeinated beverage? The more she sipped the more excited she felt like she was getting. Closing her eyes she gave a few deep breaths to calm. Quote:

And it was way too early to be in class, considering the school term had just begun and all. Didn't the professors believe in easing people in? You know... gently take the bandaid off instead of ripping? Granted, if bandages were involved then perhaps the ripping would be better, but in this case--
Off topic. Right. Anyways. Back to the room. The glorious, not so pink, room! The red was a bit weird too, but at least it was red! The colors of GRYFFINDOR. Ahem. Yet another reminder to all that Gryffindor won last term, just saying. The Gryffindor slowly walked up to the snap cup thing and knelt down to write his proud moment. If it were last term, this would be weird, but alas he was used to it know. The Gryffindor quickly scribbled in his hardly-legible-but-still-eh handwriting. “Zander, so good to see you. I hope you had a lovely summer.” she greeted the Gryffindor before going back in her own head to be ready for the lesson to start. Quote:

Dressed in his most comfortable pajama's, Kevin entered the classroom with a bored expression on his face. Of course he didn't sleep with the hat on top of his head but the Gryffindor was very rarely seen without a hat on.
When he climbed on the top of the ladder he was met with a different view this time. The disgustingly pink color was gone and in the place was red. Kevin approved of this because red was Gryffindor.
He looked the at the professor drinking something , didn't say anything and walked away before sitting down. Kevin looked at the board and sighed. Write down something he was proud of? EEEH okay. He grabbed his stuff and began to write. Seeing who was coming in next Cassie lost all train of thought and just watched him. She had never felt like a child was an issue, but she knew how others felt about him. She could reach out and give him fair chances, because he was just expressing himself, so she gave him a very encouraging smile and wave as he went to his seat. Quote:

So that morning after waking she had showered and dressed in a pair of dark green silk pajama pants and a white top that had a large cobra on the front and back with fluffy matching green slippers. Sure she might be showing some house pride but she also adored snakes and missed the one she had to leave at home. Anyhow not feeling hungry and a bit nervous she made her way to class...
Following some of her housemates up the ladder into the room she quickly glanced about and made her way to the front of classroom where she took out her quill and wrote in a gentle script on the parchment... Seeing another young one come in Cassie beamed at her nd gave a little wave. Quote:

The blonde walked into the classroom, clutching the strap of her bag nervously. At least, they got to wear pj's to class. That was pretty cool, yeah."Hello, professor."
She took a seat near the front and dropped her bag to the floor, when she read the notice on the board. Uh. Something she was proud of.. After a few minutes, she neatly wrote on her parchment. Oh and an older Hufflepuff next. Wonderful just wonderful to have so many. “Good morning.” She greeted excitedly. Quote:

Although the having to wear your jarmies to class when you were a fifteen year old boy was a little embarrassing but you couldn't have it all could you?
He headed into the classroom wearing an oversized t-shirt and pj bottoms that were a little short on the lanky lad. He grinned at the professor.“Hello.” He greeted and then helped himself to tea, holding it up and thanking the professor because how many teachers in state school let you drink tea in lessons?
NONE.
He then scribbled down what he was proud of, and placed it in the snapcup. Smiling as another young man had entered she was certain she would need name tags today. So many wonderful students. This was just so amazing. “Hello there. How are you today?” [/quote] Quote:
Originally Posted by Puck What was she proud of? Puck was convinced people were writing down things like I’m proud of my family she couldn’t write that. She wouldn’t even if she could…lucky, well…other people wouldn’t think she was lucky, but she thought so and that was all that mattered.
She sat there nervous, but still not nervous. She would never cop to it. Nope. She was just boiling on the inside that was a very red-trait yes? A very Gryffindor thing to do? Maybe she was really one of these...lion-girls? That stupid rude hat had thought so.
Okay...she couldn't think of anything. Not even an inkling of a thought had decided to bubble up for it. It was annoying. Instead. She just glanced around the room at all of the different pajamas.
I'll have to ask the girl with the owl-pajamas where she got them she thought and smiled to herself. And then she saw it the lion onesie. Okay that girl was a TRUE gryffindor wasn't she? Maybe she'd have to get lion-lessons from her?
She clearly didn't look the part herself in her green pajamas. Seeing another come in she watched the young lady head to a seat and seem to struggle with the snap cup. Well it would get easier she just knew it! Quote:

But here he was, wearing his red flannel pajama pants and gray long sleeved waffle tee, ready for class and SUPER comfortable and totally about to take a nap.
The tea was not going to help either. He hoped it didn't have chamomile in it, otherwise he might REALLY fall asleep. Also that snap cup thing made him feel like he was at an all girl's slumber party.
He WANTED to write down that he was proud of Sophie for having to deal with HIM for a brother. He really did. He'd been thinking of it a lot lately after his outburst at the ice cream parlour, but he hadn't said anything because - well, because he was CALEB. And she was SOPHIE. And he couldn't bear to admit he was wrong.
Plus he knew Morgan would read these aloud, he was sure of it. Pssh. He wasn't putting THAT down.
So instead he came up with the next best thing... “Good Morning” She greeted cheerfully as the next boy came through the door. Quote:

Honestly, Eden was hoping this would be an easy-peasy class where she could just..relaaaax and make a good grade. Would she be wrong? Hmph. Only time would tell.
And then something HORRIBLE HAPPENED.
Eden saw everyone....IN THEIR PJs. WHUT. She turned a brilliantly bright shade of red and could have smacked her head against the wall--SHE HADN'T READ THE NOTICE BOARD. Of course not. See SEE? She wasn't made out for this RAVENCLAW business. Nope. She felt so....ALONE. With shaky hands, she tucked some hair behind her ears and just...tried not to stand out too much in the Hogwarts uniform. And she so would have liked to wear PJs, too. This tie was somethin' else. Not comfy. Nope.
SIGHHHHH.
Would she get in trouble? Oh dear MERLIN she hoped not. Another girl had come in and Cassie noticed she was not in pajamas, well it wasn’t for everyone and the girl got a nice smile and wave, but then something happened. She jumped a foot and spilled some of her tea as the girl yelled for a friend. Goodness that was loud in her calm room. Closing her eyes she took a few deep breaths to get back into the relaxed state she had been working so hard for at the moment.
Dec climbed up to the Divination classroom, sluggishly, with a Hufflepuff themed blanket draped around his shoulders. He groaned at the sight of the comfy looking classroom. It was bad enough that he was practically asleep already and now she had them coming in pjs into a room that was perfect for napping?? Is that what they were doing? Napping? Because he would love that very, very much.
Oh, right. Gotta contribute to that snap cup thing. He oughta pour himself a cup of tea first, it looked tempting. So now, with tea in one hand, he stared down at the blank scrap of paper. Ummm...OH![/quote]
Seeing another boy come in she gave him a smile and wave. Ohhhh look at there hufflepuff blanket. She just looooved it. Quote:

'Least they got to wear pyjamas. AND, he didn't have a complaint about Professor Cassie's lessons, even if some of it was weird and unnecessary. Like the snaps. And the weird amount of love that they were meant to show one another. Still, with his hair tousled up and doing its own messy thing -- Whitty hadn't bothered brushing it -- and his bag swinging by his side, the boy climbed the ladder to the Divination class--
NO PINKS IN THIS CLASSROOM! FREAKING YEEEEEEEEEES!
You know, apart from the snaps cup. Something needed to be done about that.
ANYWAYS. "Hello, Professor Cassie," he called, moving over to take some tea, "Thanks!" For the tea, something he wasn't a huuuuuuuge fan of but he wasn't about to deny free food and drinks. The Slytherin headed over towards his table and placed the cup down before scribbling in whatever nonsense came into his dead for his proud moment. Seeing Grayson walk in Cassie beamed at the young Slytherin. “Good morning Mr. Grayson, I hope you are having a wonderful morning.” Her smile only grew more with his words. “Thank you for appreciating the gesture. It is very nice to hear those words when you are doing something nice.” Very good manners this one. [
Finishing off her third cup of tea, yes her third Cassiopeia vanished the mug since she was fully finished and flicked her wrist turning the music way down to a whisper. Green eyes scanned across the room and she wondered if Nessa would be joining them. She wouldn’t mind if a certain other person would have decided to join, but right that wasn’t something to think about now, so Cassie turned to the board and cleared it. “OHMYGOSH, can I first say how wonderful it is to see all these adrob Pj’s. You all look fabulous. Plus with the start of term why not have a comfy way to get back in the swing of things.” EEEP! She was snapping now so much for calm and collected.
“First things first, for those who don’t know me, my name is Professor Cassie and you are in Divinations right now.” Just to make sure no one wondered in by mistake. “Welcome to anyone who hasn’t ever been here and welcome back to those who have. Now the way we get our lessons started is we like to become super positive and what better way to be positive then going into the snap cup.” Picking up the pink cup she stuck her hand in finding the first parchment. “I will read everyone’s without names, so once I’m done with a proud moment everyone snaps for the person.” Were they ready? Pulling out the first one she looked at it, this was interesting.. hmmm, Then she read it very clear and grammatically correct without missing a beat, “I'm proud that I stood up 4 expresing myself thru fashion even tho sum peepl r stuck in the midle ages & think its ok 2 limit peepls individualty. Snaps for expressing yourself.” Yes this was good and she snapped happily. Pulling out the next one, “I'm proud of not being a girl and not make drama. And to be in Slytherin too. Snaps for being a boy and a Slytherin.” She snapped and giggled at this one. She just loved everyone’s proud moments. Going through the rest of them and snapping of course to each, she finally came to the final one in the cup, “"I am proud of my wonderful little sister Emilie. Snaps for Emilie.” Wasn’t that just wonderful.
“Now that the excitement is over we are going to be doing something today that requires everyone to be the most comfortable and relaxed they possibly can be. The mind is better at certain Divinations when it is fully clear of anything else. So as we dicsuss today’s topic please sip your tea, let the smell of the lavender and the sound of the music just relax you.” Moving towards her own chair she decided to sit and work on the relaxing part too. Rolling her shoulders a bit she smiled, “So seeing the crystal balls on the table should be a clue as to what we will be discussing, but what form of divination uses a crystal ball?” OOC: You all are just amazing let me first say that! With the snap cup she has read everyone's with time and space I use a number generator to pick ones at random, but thank you so much for all your proud moments. They are just adorable!
