SPOILER!!: Individual Greetings SPOILER!!: Blaise :) Quote:

Blaise trudged into the classroom, alongside his cousin. If you asked him, they should have just been given an early lunch and call it a day.
"Hello Professor." Came his greeting as he plopped into one of the seats at their usual desk. The quill and notepad that floated just above his shoulder recorded her stance but there was currently very little in the way of stimulus to occupy it. Eventually the lesson would begin and that would change, it just needed some patience.
Also, it was warm in here. That was a welcomed change from the chilly corridors they had to walk through. Watching the doorway, Rosalyn smiled as the first student entered the classroom. "Hello, Mr Bellaire." It was hard not to notice that the boy seemed less than enthused about being here but fortunately for him this lesson was not going to be too heavy on the content. She was going to give their brains a bit of a rest since the holidays were fast approaching. Also neat quill.
SPOILER!!: Azura :) Quote:

"Hello Professor Newton, how are you?" " She asked as she waved and then headed to her usual seat. They didn't have assigned seating like they did with Professor Finch, but she had claimed a seat on the left as her own.. Aah, there was Ms Snow. Always a delightful student because she was polite and eager to learn. That was something that Rosalyn liked to see though she did not believe in playing favourites; she valued all students equally. "Hello, Ms Snow. I am doing quite well, thank you. I hope you are too." Despite how cold the castle was lately that is. At least she had remedied the problem as far as her classroom was concerned...
SPOILER!!: Brooklyn :) Quote:
Originally Posted by SilverTiger History of Magic had always been one of those subjects that were touch-and-go when it came to Brooklyn’s opinion. She had liked it when she was younger, but then as the professors had changed her interest had waned a little. In fact, it had more devolved simply into her intent to make certain that all professors respected her, but nothing more than that. She had often found herself thinking about histories other than her own, other than the Wizarding world during lessons, and yet she was still content in her belief that the professors didn’t know. Her grades hadn’t revealed any of that, anyhow, and she wasn’t planning on that changing.
The warmth in the classroom was pleasant, anyhow, after the normal drafts that went through the corridors during winter. She had even been able to drop her usual charms she cast on herself, her sweater seeming to be enough given the environment in the room. “Good day Professor Newton,” she said, inclining her head toward the younger Newton slightly and accompanying it with a polite smile as she headed for a seat. Respect went both ways, after all, and besides, so far she hadn’t had any reason to wonder if the woman was going to keep her position. There hadn’t been any accidental poisonings after all. The small smile was nice to see, and Rosalyn returned the gesture. "Hello, Ms Andrews." She too declined on taking any Chocolate Frogs and that was alright as they were available throughout the lesson so long as the students didn't get up to grab them while she was in the middle of talking. They would know better than that by now anyway, especially the older ones.
SPOILER!!: Jace :) Quote:

"G-good day, Professor." he said in a muffled tone and immediately took a seat beside Azura. "It's so cold outside. And...hi."
Even if there were warming charms in place, Jace still felt uncomfortable. "This is the reason why I don't like visiting Hokkaidō...This weather is just too much." he said as he unwrapped his face and folded his scarf neatly, tucking it away in his bag. In exchange, he got his book and writing implements out and waited for the rest to arrive. "Nice to see you, Mr Reed," Rosalyn said as she returned the bow. That was different than what she was generally used to but she liked it. She knew a little about Japanese culture and found it utterly fascinating. As he went to sit by Azura, Rosalyn turned her attention back to the door for when more students arrived.
SPOILER!!: Jasper :) Quote:
Originally Posted by Pucki The Australian was cold.

Jasper's teeth were chattering as he walked into the room, and even feeling the temperature shift his teeth kept chattering. "G-g-g-'day Pr-professor," Jasper managed to stutter out before sitting himself down next to Jace.
With a small wave to both Azura and Jace, he dropped his head down on the table, hugging himself and waiting for his teeth to STOP chattering and for some kind of feeling to return to his fingers. It was obvious to see that Mr Quinn was feeling the cold despite the fact that there had been heating spells put in place. "Hello," she said as she watched the boy shiver away. "Would you like me to make the class even warmer?" Some people really disliked the cold and she didn't want any of her students to be freezing.
SPOILER!!: Geneva :) Quote:
Originally Posted by Magical Soul Genny enjoyed a little bit of history. She did not particularly liked the theoretical part of it, but she loved the stories a lot. Her mom knew how to make them exciting and interesting. Hopefully today's class was fun, too.
Naturally, Genny greeted the professor with a wide smile, "Hi professor!" And assumed the seat closest to Brooklyn. "Hi." Because they were totally friends by now. Genny stalked the heck out of her all year. Enthusiasm! Now that was what she liked seeing from her students. Rosalyn returned the wide smile. "Hello, Ms Tate." Hopefully the enthusiasm would stay throughout the lesson and no one would fall asleep because that was something that just didn't not go over well in her classroom.
SPOILER!!: Owen :) Quote:
Originally Posted by Tazzie The cold weather didn't go well with Owen. It made him a bit moody. So instead of his usual wide grin, the badger could only be seen wearing what looked like a forced smile as he sauntered inside the History of Magic classroom. Still, he gave the lady Professor a bow, "Morning, Professor."
It was warmer inside. Owen supposed he was thankful for that but it didn't do much to alleviate his sucky mood, nor did the chocolate frogs. He picked one, bit into it, chewed and swallowed. Until it was gone.
Ehhhh.
He also chose to sit on a vacant desk faaaaaaaaaaaaarthest.
Moody Owen was moody. With an eyebrow raise, Rosalyn watched as Mr Montezor entered her classroom with none of the cheerfulness that Hufflepuff was known for. At least he managed to give her a greeting despite his mood. That was something always appreciated. "Hello, Mr Montezor, she said as she returned the bow. Should she ask what was wrong? Hopefully the Chocolate Frog would help at least a little.
SPOILER!!: Dalton :) Quote:
Originally Posted by Harron Peasley Oh, Chocolate Frogs! Dalton may have eyed them suspiciously before slipping one into his pocket and looking up at the Professor gratefully. "Thanks," he managed, before weaving through the desks and slipping into a seat near the back of the room. Gosh, he always hated being one of the first to arrive.
The heating charms were appreciated, though, and the sixth year pulled his beanie off and stuffed it in his bag. Hat hair galore. The next students seemed to be in a better mood which was nice to see. And he was thanking her for the Chocolate Frog, which made her smile. "Hello, Mr Fletcher. You are very welcome." Fortunately he took the beanie off of his head before she could tell him to. Even though it was rather cold around the castle, there WAS a dress code and heating charms in place.
SPOILER!!: Tenacius :) Quote:

Stuffing his class schedule back into his robes, the leonine lad breezed in through the right classroom "Hiya Professor Newton!" the leonine lad greeted her cheerfully as he always did, quickly plucking some chocolate frogs on his way to his desk. He had lost count how many times he took the wrong notes and books to the wrong class, so much so that he is considering bringing both notes and textbooks on any day that his schedule says Newton.
Haste makes waste eh? Fo'sho #GryffindorOccupationalHazzard
He plunked himself on Blaise' table, across from the boy because he knew Bentley would be joining them shortly, and he usually took the seat next to his cousin. "Hey yo Blaise question-- that self-taking notes quill you got there-- where'd you buy that?" Clearly the Curly Top was interested in adding this to his arsenal of self-doing things. Another cheerful student! "Hello, Mr Salander." Rosalyn said as she watched the boy take a few of the Chocolate Frogs. He was more than welcome to take as many as he wanted since she had charmed the bowl to keep refilling itself. Wasn't magic just one of the most amazing things ever? She didn't know what she would do without it.
SPOILER!!: Paige :) Quote:
Originally Posted by sweetpinkpixie Entering the classroom, Paige opted to bypass any chocolate frog consumption and instead focused on greeting Professor Newton with her usual Hufflepuff smile - although a tiny bit forced as the draft had caused a bit of an unpleasant shiver to torture her spin at just the right moment. Teeth chattering a bit, just until the heating charms took effect anyway, Paige made her way over towards a vacant grouping of desks and slid into her seat. While setting her owl shaped backpack on her chair, she couldn't help overhearing what Tenacius was asking Blaise, the latter of whom's chair just to happened to be back to back with hers.
"You can purchase Quick Quotes Quills at Scrivenshaft's Quill Shop in Hogsmeade," she offered the third year. Although she was well aware that Blaise's particular quill was a bit selective and, well, unique with its interpretation of things. She had edited enough of his work to know.
The next student bypassed the Chocolate Frogs entirely but had a smile on her face though it DID seem to be a little forced. Seemed that the cold was getting to most of the students though they would be feeling much better soon enough. "Good to see you, Ms Skeeter." It was a joy to see all of her students even though some of them definitely didn't seem to share her enthusiasm for history. Oh well.
SPOILER!!: Natalia :) Quote:
Originally Posted by Bazinga History of Magic wasn't a bad subject and it wasn't a wand subject so Natalia was actually pretty good in it. Though she did find it hard to stay focused depending on what they were learning about. The winter had fully come in and all Nat could think of was hot tea or coco. Couldn't they have class in the kitchen near the fireplace with plenty of hot drinks?
Walking into the room she gave the Professor a small smile, "Hello Professor" before turning and looking at the desks. She didn't mind if she sat in the front or back in this class so when she noticed and empty spot by Dalton she headed over. "Mind if I sit by you today?" She hoped he didn't because she was already pulling her stuff out and sitting down in the seat by him. Soon after another student had arrived. "Hello there, Franks-Mundie," Rosalyn said as she returned the girl's smile. She watched as it took a moment for her to find a place to sit but it didn't take too long for her to be situated by Mt Fletcher. Good since they were going to be starting soon. Almost time to close the door.
SPOILER!!: Henry :) Quote:
Originally Posted by emjay Even if it was rather chilly this December day, Henry wasn't too bothered with the cold. He had already gotten his morning run in which always warmed him up. It was, of course, more difficult to get up on the colder days, but he managed to push himself to do it. And it did help him feel more awake when he went to class.
Stepping into the History of Magic classroom, he first spotted the professor and gave her a smile before reaching for a chocolate frog from her desk. "Hi, Professor Newton. Thanks for the sweets." Even if History of Magic wasn't his favorite subject, a class with snacks was almost always welcome.
As he turned to look for a seat, Henry spotted several of his friends already seated and he gave a few grins and nods as he walked through the room. Dropping his things onto the table furthest from everything, he took a seat with Owen at his table. "Hey!" he gave his friend one of his usual cheerful grin. "Why so far away?" Not that he was complaining, just curious. A seat further away might be less noticeable if he got distracted from taking notes, which was likely in a class like this anyway. "Maybe we should get one of those Quick Quotes Quills to take notes in here," he mentioned to Owen as he heard some talk about them.
Pulling at the packaging of his candy, he waited for class to begin. Was it him or did Owen look sorta grouchy? "Hello, Mr Whittebrook," Rosalyn said as she smiled back at the boy. He was also being polite and thanking her for the chocolate. "You are very welcome." While a lot of Professors didn't seem to like students eating in their lessons, she found that it wasn't a problem so long as they made sure not to make a mess.
SPOILER!!: Kitty :) Quote:
Originally Posted by Goblinfrog "Good morning Professor Newton," Kitty greeted her cheerfully as she stepped into the (thankfully) heated classroom. She took off her robe hood as soon and approached the front desk where the chocolate frogs were. "Thank you," she said quietly as she took one of the chocolate frogs. It wasn't every professor who offered chocolate to students before a lesson began.
She then went to sit down next to Jace and Azura waving to Jasper as she passed him. "Hey guys," she whispered as she sat down. The first Prefect had arrived. "Good morning, Ms Valentine." Rosalyn was glad to see that she removed the hood off of her head before taking one of the Chocolate Frogs. "You are very welcome." After giving the girl a smile, she returned her attention back to the door.
SPOILER!!: Oliver :) Quote:
Originally Posted by littledhampir Thank Merlin for heating charms. Olly was glad the classroom was not quite as cold as the temperature outside. He did not want to spend the whole lesson freezing and shivering. But he was pleased to find the temperature of the room a lot more pleasant than he had been expecting. Olly was smiling as he greeted the professor. "Hello professor." And of course he immediately took a chocolate frog.
Olly glanced around for just a second before making his way toward the back of the room to a cluster where he recognized the two boys. "Hey," he greeted Owen and Henry. "Mind if I join you?" He was already setting his bag down and sitting in one of the two remaining desks so he hoped it was fine. But why wouldn't it be? "Hello, Mr Thomas-Borzekowski," Rosalyn said as she watched the boy step inside the classroom. She returned the smile and was glad to see that he helped himself to one of the Chocolate Frogs before heading over to one of the desks. Honestly she was starting to feel tempted to take one for herself but sadly it would have to wait until class was over.
SPOILER!!: Leesha :) Quote:
Originally Posted by Sonea Puffing because she was cold the first year walked toward the history of magic classroom and pushed her hands deeper inside her pockets, she hated the cold! The castle was made of stone so of course everything was cold around her, the cold seemed to come from the stones themselves! Shivering she hoped that the classroom would be warmer.
Entering the classroom she first noticed that the professor had warmed the classroom, what was a good thing because now she at last could be a little more comfortable. "Hello professor" greeted Leesha while looking hungrily at the candy on the professor's desk. Looking around her she saw that some other students were eating it so she quickly grabbed one for herself. "Thank you professor" she said grateful, if you could make her happy with one thing, than you definitely should bring her candy, she LOOOOVED candy!
Walking over to a random seat she sat down and opened her back to grab her textbook and other necessities. "Hello, Ms Griffel," Rosalyn said as she watched the girl eye the bowl of Chocolate Frogs hungrily before taking one. "You are very welcome." There were a lot more where that came from, but the girl ws already heading over to one of the free desks. It was nice to see that she wasn't the only one with a soft spot for the chocolates.
SPOILER!!: Bentley :) Quote:

Bentley took his usual seat at the table, next to his cousin. He gave Tenacious a nod when the younger boy joined them at the table. He was about to throw his hand over Blaise's mouth before he could answer when the older girl ruined it for them anyways.
"Thanks a lot Paige."
He shook his head at Ace. "Don't listen to her. We get them from a special dealer. If you want we can hook you up with one...of course it will be for a price. Nothing is free after all. He offered the boy a sincere looking grin.
"Well?" And there was the other Bellaire. "Good to see you, Mr Bellaire-Moore." Rosalyn watched as he took a seat beside his cousin. No surprise since they always sat together. No harm in that. She didn't believe that seating plans were necessary and liked to allow people the choice to sit wherever they wanted to. So long as they didn't talk when she was in the middle of teaching.
SPOILER!!: Charlotte Quote:
Originally Posted by Tegz Charlotte skipped into class in a good mood. Her birthday was SO SOON. She was ALMOST fifteen. Even potential boredom in History of Magic couldn't beat that down! She spotted a group of her friends and made a beeline for them.
"Hi boys!" She sat down without thinking to ask. She was obviously welcome to be their fourth, right?
"Oooooh, where'd you get the chocolate frogs?" She hadn't noticed. Nope. The next student to enter made a beeline towards her friends without saying hello. That was something that Rosalyn was not a huge fan of though she wasn't going to give punishments for it. Just was common courtesy. Anyway she wanted to know where the Chocolate Frogs were. "Hello, Ms Kettleburn. You can get the chocolate from the bowl on my desk." SPOILER!!: Dora :) Quote:
Originally Posted by Eriin Getting moving on cold days was a TASK. All the Gryffindor wanted to do was stay in her warm common room and curl up on the sofa. Ugh. Grumbling to herself she stepped into the classroom and SIGHED. A sigh of relief. Warmth! Chyeah!
Eyeing the bowl of chocolate frogs she crink led her nose before smiling at the Professor. "Lo, Professor. " That was as good as it got for the moment. Yep.
Without paying real attention to where she was sat, Dora ambled over and plopped down at a desk and starred to arrange her things. Hearing that sigh almost made Rosalyn laugh. It was nice to see how much her warming spells were appreciated by the students. She thought it was incredible how even with all the magic that happened around Hogwarts the castle was always cold in the winter unless spells were used. "Hello, Ms Umbridge," she said in reply as she watched the girl find a seat.
SPOILER!!: Chloe Quote:
Originally Posted by pundantic Chloe was exhausted. It was cold, she was frustrated with runes (an outside of class project she was working on with Bastien) and she was dreading the holidays. It did not make for a pleasant attitude coming off the fourteen year old.
She didn't acknowledge the professor, take a frog or sit at a table with people she knew. Instead, the Ravenclaw made her way to a seat and plopped down silently. Here was another student who entered the classroom without so much as acknowledging her presence. Rosalyn had a bit of difficulty holding her tongue. "Hello, Ms Newman." Glancing at her watch, she saw that it was almost time to close the classroom door. Anyone to come after that would lose points.
SPOILER!!: Jonas :) Quote:
Originally Posted by 2111jen Whoa. A classrooom that is actually warm. And this is one of Jonas' favorite subjects. What would they be learning about? Oh, hopefully it would be about the second wizard war. That was always great to learn about. Though it seemed to him that even though it's been....how many years? At least forty he thinks since the defeat of Voldemort. Yeah he wasn't afraid to say his name but it seemed like everyone else was. Oh well, he guessed it couldn't be helped. He muttered a "Hey professor," before settling into his seat. "Hello, Mr Emery," Rosalyn said as she flashed the boy a smile. He was one who seemed to rather enjoy history and hopefully he would enjoy what they would be doing for today's lesson. Laid back was rather nice and there was no way that she was going to make her students' brains hurt so close to Christmas.
SPOILER!!: Katerina :) Quote:
Originally Posted by SarcasticStrawberry So it was another lesson in History of Magic. If Kat was being completely honest she didn't like it too much but who would say no to a class where you got chocolate frogs. She headed into the classroom. "Hello, Professor Newton." Did else still get confused by the fact that there was two Professor Newton? It was a little weird.
Anyway Kat was feeling just a little on the sweet tooth side, so she took two today. She slipped one in her pocket and kept the other one in her hand. Kat looked around for a seat. Upon looking she opted for a empty quad of seats. Anyone coming in after her could sit with her. Maybe they were afraid to take the fourth seat of something silly like that.
Yep that was her mood today, not that it was a bad mood. She was just in History of Magic mode which meant the less distractions the better. Also sitting only could be a pass to make a new friend or two or three. She nommed on her chocolate frog happily either way. And there was Ms Delgado. "Hello, Ms Delgado." Rosalyn gave the girl a smile. The girl opted for two Chocolate Frogs before heading over to one of the empty groups of desks. It seemed that her classroom was filling up rather quickly and most of the tables were filled already. Good. Very good.
SPOILER!!: Olivia :) Quote:
Originally Posted by Govoni Without much of her usual fanfare, Olivia had entered the History classroom and slipped right into a seat beside her favorite Newman. The day was a weird one, and she just didn't feel like being her... typical extroverted self.
She didn't even care about the chocolate frogs.
"Hey." It was said lowly so that only Chlo could hear. Seeing Ms Phillips entering the room without any enthusiasm was rather strange to Rosalyn. Seemed that the girl wasn't in a good mood today. No greeting from this one. Instead she had made a beeline towards Ms Newman. "Hello, Ms Phillips." Great timing because the lesson would be starting in a few minutes after the rest of her students trickled in.
SPOILER!!: Kimi :) Quote:
Originally Posted by Saz Hale Kimi walked into the history of magic classroom and said "Hello Professor Newton" Kimi took a seat that was free and waited for class to start "Hello, Mr Kovalainen," Rosalyn said as she watched the First Year enter the classroom and take a seat in one of the empty tables. Seemed that he wasn't feeling very hungry either as he had also opted out of taking a Chocolate Frog.
SPOILER!!: Takeru Quote:
Originally Posted by Kaos.Doodles Running his tongue over his split lip, Tak entered the History of Magic classroom with his head held high. He wasn't embarrassed or shy, or even proud of his current appearance - split lip and slightly bruised face - he just didn't care. Eyes lingering in the Professors desk he didn't say a word before reaching into the bowl and grabbing about four of the chocolate frogs. Taking a seat at a random desk he started tossing his frogs in his bag. Everyone was doing the greeting their friends thing an that was cool. He just didn't want to. The split lip and bruised face didn't go unnoticed and Rosalyn resisted the urge to raise her brow. Clearly there had been a fight. Not something that she condoned but it seemed that he was doing okay. If anything was seriously bad he would make a trip to the Hospital Ward to see Joy. "Hello, Mr Asakura," she said while noticing that he took a few Chocolate Frogs without giving a greeting. If this continued much longer she would be saying something.
SPOILER!!: Cassandra Quote:

That was always good and the Ravenclaw felt with the heated charms could loosen her scarf around her neck. Winter was one of the times Cassie was sure the boys had it easier with pants in their uniform versus skirts. It tended to make her want to break the rules sometimes…but usually only for a short time.
Making her way further inside, the girl took in her surroundings, debating where to sit. “Good day, Professor,” she greeted the womam before making her way towards Olivia and a fellow Ravenclaw in their set of desks. “Mind if I join you two?” Cassie asked, not wanting to just sit down.
And there was Ms McNally. "Good day to you too, Ms McNally," Rosalyn said with a smile. She watched as the girl looked around the classroom looking for a place to sit before heading over to join Ms Phillips and Ms Newman.
SPOILER!!: Colt :) Quote:
Originally Posted by Expecto-Penguin The slytherin made his way to history of magic just to take a stab at it. He thought it can't be too hard. He liked a little bit of history. As he walked to the classroom, he saw the others have made it here already. Man did he take that long to eat? He saw the Professor was watching the class and he nodded to her. "Hello Professor.." Then he saw chocolate frogs and he smirked. He was impressed. "Nice sweets ya got there I prefer pumpkin pasties though.." he joked giving her a hard time. When he grabbed two chocolate frogs, he made his way to the table with his fellow slytherins. He felt he might as well hang out with his fellow housemates.
He nodded toward Natalia and Dalton. "Do you mind?" I mean not that he cared he would sit anyways. He wondered why they needed to be in groups but ah well. "Hello, Mr Winchester," Rosalyn said before laughing at what he told her about the candy selection. "I might have some of those for a future lesson," she said knowing full well that he was only teasing her. Nice to see students with a good sense of humor. She smiled as she watched him take two Chocolate Frogs before finding a seat.
SPOILER!!: Noelle :) Quote:
Originally Posted by ChanceCoeur History wasnt Noelle's favorite class but she needed it. She briskly walked into class and was surprised when the class was a nice and toasty warm. Mmmm... she hoped she didnt fall asleep in here. She'd been working too hard lately and her schedule was a little over-crowded. So sleeping had been a chore due to her mind running.
She pulled off her cloak, she wouldnt be needing out with the charms in place. Noelle's eyes searched for a spot to sit. She had started to make her way over to Olly, Char, Henry, and Owen, but bugger.... only a four person desk. She gave them a little wave and a smile, all of them being her friends.
She changed directions and headed to sit by Kat. "Hey Kat." She said brightly and sat down beside her. "Mind if I sit with you?" She'd seen Azura here too but she was already sitting with a few others. Another student who abstained from giving a greeting. Rosalyn had just about reached her limit as far as this was concerned. The next person to walk in without displaying courtesy would earn the class a lecture on such things and she did NOT like giving lectures. "Hello, Ms Summers," she said as the girl took a seat by Ms Delgado.
SPOILER!!: Katherine :) Quote:
Originally Posted by Cassirin It was chilly chilly out side, but Katy wasn't bothered a bit by it. Her fingerless gloves had a warming charm, her step had a skip to it, and she wasn't feeling the weather at all. No, but she was feeling bummed that she'd shown up too late for a really really good seat.
Katy tossed her hair (tossed hair, don't care) and grabbed two chocolate frogs from the basket on the professor's desk. She claimed a seat near the middle of the room, not too far from Kat and Char. "Good day, Professor. Thank you for the chocolate."
Not that she was going to eat them. Instead, Katy opened the boxes with a flourish, releasing both frogs at once into the air. It was a race, see? "Hello, Ms Toussaint. You are very welcome." Rosalyn said in reply to the greeting as the girl took a couple Chocolate Frogs. She glanced at her watch to see what time it was. In one minute she would be starting so this was excellent timing.
SPOILER!!: Juliette :) Quote:
Originally Posted by Sneakeh Cat Juliette was running down the corridor to make it in time for her History of Magic. It was unlike her to be running late for class, but she had been in the middle of writing a letter to her mother thank t she had lost track of time. When she came up to the classroom, she slid it, almost falling a little as she did so, and looked around to see where an empty seat was located at.
She caught her breath before greeting the Profession, "Hello, Professor!"
She made her way to a desk in the corner of the room and nudge Cassie as she walked by her. "Come sit with me!" She smiled at her friend then went and took a seat. She was hoping Cassie would join her! The next arrival seemed to be rather short of breath. Clearly she had ran all the way to the classroom. "Hello, Ms McDean," she said with a smile as she watched the girl make her way over to one of the empty seats. Only a few more spots were left to be filled by this time.
SPOILER!!: Bradson :) Quote:
Originally Posted by MuggleDinosaur We had a new professor this year and Bradson didn't really know how he felt about that but then again he wasn't really close to the last professor. The last professor was a good professor but he just never really got to know if all that well. No one is Professor Paul. Anyway The third year Hufflepuff made his way into the lesson.
Brady could feel the winter air finally settling into the castle. He always loved the winter months. It was nice to sweat to death. As the Scottish stepped into the class he looked around at all of the students. He didn't know where to sit so he took the closest seat to where he was standing.
He just looked around the classroom, not really knowing what to do. Rosalyn was about to head towards the door when another student had arrived. "Excellent timing, Mr Somerhalder," she said while noticing that he had also declined from giving her a greeting, instead looking around the room. "Just sit anywhere," she told the boy. Lesson was about to start in a second.
SPOILER!!: Juno :) Quote:
Originally Posted by Suziella Juno entered the classroom happily greeting the professor, "Hello, Professor Newton! And thanks for the chocolate!" She grinned hugely grabbing a handful of chocolate frogs. Hey...she had a healthy appetite and could never say no to chocolate!
Juno quietly found a seat at a table that didn't have anyone else at it. Hopefully someone would sit with her...or maybe she could just do today's class alone. She wouldn't have minded sitting with Colt...but she decided to just stay here instead, hopeful that someone would sit with her...or you know...call her over if there was a spare seat. "Hello, Ms Darcy," Rosalyn said as the Hufflepuff Prefect followed immediately after Mr Somerhalder. Seemed that someone really liked Chocolate Frogs. "You are very welcome," she said with a smile before heading over to the door and closing it. Anyone who arrived after this point was going to lose points.
Heading back towards the blackboard, she glanced around the room at all the students. "Before I start the lesson, I have something to say. I noticed that a few of you entered the classroom and made a beeline towards a place to sit without so much as acknowledging my presence. That is not something that I like seeing and expect not to in the future." Was that something that they all understood? All that she was asking for was some courtesy. If this happened again in the future she WOULD be a lot more severe about it.
Anyway with that addressed it was time for them to start the lesson.
"As the Christmas holidays are fast approaching I have decided that this lesson will not be too heavy historical content." They would be expected to pay attention, however, and take notes of anything that was important. Just because they were having a lighter lesson did not mean that there was going to be no work to complete. If that was the case, she might as well cancel lessons all together and there was no way that was about to happen.
Four images of enlarged Chocolate frog cards were added to the board. "Here are four famous historical figures. I would like to start off by having everyone list ONE fact about any of them even if it is something as small as the year that they were born in. No more than one figure per person please." It was just good to get some idea of how well they knew some of the great minds from Wizarding history. All four people had something in common and that was going to be the focus of today's lesson.
OOC: Class has officially started! Please note that anyone who posts entering the classroom after this point WILL receive IC consequences. To avoid that, it is best to pretend that you have been here all along. Lesson will continue in roughly 24 hours. |
