| | Ancient Runes Lesson 1 As you enter the classroom, the first thing that you will notice is that this is no ordinary classroom. There are no desks, nor are there chairs but soft springy grass and a very large tree in the centre of the room.
In the back corner of the room is a small water fountain. The gentle sounds of trickling water has a very calming feel, but please make sure you go to the loo before coming to class. Also you will notice dotted around the room large stone structures with strange looking inscriptions carved into them.
The room is light and airy thanks to the drapes being opened allowing sunlight to filter through the windows and a gentle breeze is flowing through one of the opened windows.
Professor Jenkins is seated on the grass with his back against the trunk of the tree, casually flipping through a magazine. He lazily flicks his wand at the door and it springs open allowing the students to file in.
“Come in and find yourselves a spot on the grass and park your bums.” he said with a small chuckle. Oliver pointed to a pile of stickers a couple of feet from his right. “Could you also please take a sticker and write your name and house on it and stick it onto your robes.” That would make life easier for him. ooc: Class won’t be starting for approximately twelve hours. Please just post your charrie arriving and following the Professor's instructions. Also please keep chatting to a minimum or points will be lost
CLASS HAS STARTED!! Please do not announce your late arrival. Pretend your character has been here the whole time. Why do we study Ancient Runes? What does the word 'rune' mean? What do we know about the Elder Futhark? Name one rune of the Elder Futhark. Rune meanings? |

Ira skipped into the classroom and was suddenly rock-still at the door. o__O What was this? Merlins! Had she even come to the right classroom? Then she saw the new professor of Runes sitting on... grass? Ira hoped her mind wasn't playing games with her!
It looked beautiful! The tree, the fountains, the grass, Ira was loving it. She came inside the classroom and wondered where they were going to sit. On the grass? Seriously? Wow!
" Hello Professor.." Oops! Ira had forgotten the new professor's name already! " Good Morning!" she greeted him, as she too went and sat on the grass, but before that made sure to take a sticker and wrote the details: Quote:
Name: Ira Wilson
House: Gryffindor
Year: 2nd
Then taking the sticker, she stuck it onto her robes.

Kurumi entered the...classroom? Wait...she WAS still indoors, wasn't she? Kurumi's eyes scanned the space, falling on the tree and stone carvings first before moving onto the fountain and finally the professor. Kurumi spun around slowly, taking everything in before the finally made her way towards the man.
" Good day, Professor Jenkins," she said with a small bow. She then picked up one of the stickers from the ground and found a spot on the grass. Seriously? No desks?! How was she going to take legible notes?! Kurumi took her book and some parchment out of her bag, laid the parchment on her book, and then set the sticker there to write her name and house on it as instructed. Quote:

Zhenya walked to the new Ancient Runes classroom, but as she walked in something that she heard made her really busting. She looked at the Professor, gave a tiny wave, and walked back out the room to the Girl's bathroom.
After finishing, she made her way quickly back to the Ancient Rooms class. She walked in and said "Hello Professor Jenkins, hope you had a good summer. I'm Zhenya, by the way," and she got a sticker. She went to sit down next to Ira and pulled out her quill and ink and wrote on the sticker, before sticking it on the front of her robes. Quote:

Sigh. Ancient Runes.
Beezus couldn't help but admit the fact that she really did miss their former Professor. She did not understood him quite well because of his unusual accent and diction but Christiansen boosted her confidence that she try to understand the whole subject. Yet now, he was no more in Hogwarts. Beezus really felt bad that she didn't even had the chance to thank him and bid farewell.
And so, with loose shoulders she entered the classroom. She was bowing her head so low that she didn't notice the new things inside until she stood on the spot where her desk was supposed to be placed. No desk. Instead, there was grass. GRASS? Beezus blinked and looked around. " Am I in the right classroom?" But her question was answered when she saw their new Professor seated near the large tree. "Err--good day Professor." She greeted and walked towards the Professor and finally settling herself on a spot near his left after taking a sticker. Then, she wrote the needed information. Quote:

Huh, what an odd classroom, if Kimalia wasn't as awake she would've thought she went outside. " Well, Good day Professor." Kimalia greeted before taking a sticker to write her said name, before 'parking her bum' in the grass. Quote:

Cardigan walked in and her mouth practically dropped to the floor.Where the heck was she?She couldn`t unerstand what a rather large tree had to do with ancient runes.Well,half of the time,she couldn`t understand what anything here had to do with anything!Alas,she still walked through and grabbed a sticker while she said,"Hello Professor!",and sat down on the grass,making sure she was close to the professor,but not too close.Cardigan took out a quill and neatly wrote the needed information on her sticker before sticking it to her robes: Quote:

Ancient Runes? Well... Raven had a bad interest in last Ancient Runes class. She remembered the Viking professor with bad English accent. But.. since the teacher was new, maybe it will be more... interesting. "Good day, Professor." she smiled. She took a sticker, wrote her name and stuck it in her robes Quote: Raven Avicenna Charlotte

Selina was feeling oddly optimistic about Ancient Runes this year. Hopefully this new Professor would not insist on dressing everyone as vikings, it was irrelevant to the lesson and just made Selina feel stupid. Because Professor Jenkin's looked nice enough when she saw him first at the opening feast.
As she stepped into the classroom Selina stopped dead in her tracks. Oh Merlin, he was a hippy, but the classroom was sort of cool. So she shrugged her shoulders and smiled at the Professor, "Good morning Professor Jenkins."
Then she wrote her name on the sticker and took her seat. Quote:

Louisa, half-asleep, dragged her feet into the classroom.. and.. wait, this wasn't a classroom! Did she mistaken her way down here and gone into the grounds instead? The girl, pausing at the door, looked around widening her eyes more to see if she was sleep-walking to the Topiary Garden or not.
Apparently not.
" Hello Professor." She greeted him, staring at the big tree in the middle... the three huge structures.. and the cute fountain in the back! It was way better than the DADA professor's attempt at decorating her classroom and ending up with a cult conference room. Heh.
The girl walked further in, flopped down on the grass and started writing on the sticker her information before sticking it to the front of her robe. Quote: Name: Louisa Carter.

Walking into the classroom felt like walking outside without the cold wind nipping at her nose and the leaves all scatted on the ground, and Jezzabelle loved it. She grabbed a little sticker and scribbled onto it Quote:

She made her way to the tree and sat up against the trunk. "I am allowed to sit here, aren't I Professor Jenkins?" If not she would move but she would much rather prefer sitting up against the tree.

Ancient Runes. Messer didn't really looking forward to this class, because he's not into an ancient thing but in the end he made his way toward the classroom. When he stepped his foot inside the classroom all he saw was that he's not in the classroom, he's indoor. Wow! It seem Ancient Runes wasn't so bad at all. "Hello Professor. How are you?" he greeted the Professor with a polite node before he sat down on the grass. Quote:

Hogwarts RPG Name: Nero Perseus Ballarat First Year | ☆ Always Potterhead ☆ SSRPG Addict ☆ Coffee Addict ☆ Hades highly anticipated the Ancient Runes class. Therefore, he didn't eat much for lunch as he wanted to go early. His lightly muscular body was used to climbing up the levels of staircases. Seeing a widely opened door, the boy entered the room and was shortly stunned at the view.
The classroom didn't look like any normal classroom, but Hades admitted he preferred it this way compare to the conventional intense-feeling classrooms. Professor Jenkins was already there leaning against the tree trunk, apparently flicking through a magazine. He bended to take a sticker before passing right in front of the elder man. "Good afternoon, sir," he smiled cheekily before settling down several feet in front of the man. Then, he layed his bag on his left and took out a quill and a bottle of ink. Quote:

Ella wasn't sure how she was going to like Ancient Runes as the subject seemed quite confusing to her. She entered the classroom dragging her feet and then her mouth dropped open in awe. She looked around wide eyed at the springy grass and lovely tree that was shading the professor. "Brilliant!" She said aloud to no one in particular. "Hello Professor." Ella said with a small as she grabbed a sticker. Once she found a seat on the ground, she filled out her sticker and stuck it to her robes, wondering what this lesson would be like. Quote:

How exciting Ancient Runes, Angelina has never took this class before. She wondered what the main subject point of the class was. Well she would find out soon. Walking into classroom Angelina didn't see what she thought she would. It's was pretty cool actually. "Hello Professor Jenkins," She greeted. Smiling she sat down on the grass like everyone else
Almost forgetting Angelina picked up a sticker and wrote her name and house upon it. Quote:

But since the classroom looked like it was actually outside... she figured she could always adjust her opinion of the class. Unless I don't like this Professor, she thought to herself. But she was sure she'd like him fine.

What she liked the most was the small water fountain in the back of the classroom and the large stone dotted around the classroom.

This was a classroom? Silvia thought as she stepped through the door. Some of these Hogwarts professors had very interesting ways of setting up the classroom. Oh well, at least it was never boring here. "Hello professor," she said, as she took a sticker and found herself a spot on the grass. Quote:

Silvia was eager for class to start. She had heard that Ancient Runes was a difficult subject, but it sounded very interesting to her. She pulled out parchment and quill and a book to set the parchment on, ready to take notes.

It was a pretty place, it was more than pretty it was beautiful.
She chose a spot and sat down, preparing some parchment, quill and ink.
She took a sticker from a pile beside her: Quote:
