Arriving at the barnyard, you weren't surprised to see the usual signs directing you on which way to go. The signs direct you onto a path leading past the treehouse and other notable areas on the Grounds into a wall of thick hedges. Venturing through the hedges throughout the many trees you find a clearing decorated with park benches surrounded by thick bushes. Occasionally you hear soft giggling and buzzing noises in the far background. Sitting on one of the tables is Professor Thompson waiting on you. Better get comfortable while you still can.

Post 1 - Greetings + What useful items came from creatures? Post 2 - Responses + What are we doing today? Post 3 - Go on and catch some fairies. Post 4 - What other creatures do you think resembles the fairies? Post 5 - Responses + Doing homework? Last chance to catch a fairy before you go.
Okay so Puck hadn’t said hello to the Professor, because really. She wasn’t much for that today – she was tired, and well…there could possibly be animal dung somewhere in her future. But she knew that could be collected for mag-magical purposes…oh god she wanted to retch at the thought.
Though still, she raised her hand. ”Professor, ugh well Mountain Troll dung is used in potions?” she stated her well…question? Because really, she was asking more than stating because mountain troll dung should never be used in a potion.

Ruby got a wink when she sat next to him, but class started before he could say anything. So okay, items that could be taken from creatures that were beneficial...
...um...
The others had lots of good answers, and David could think of absolutely ZERO answers. At least, zero new ones. So maybe he would just sit here and...
...get distracted by a guy throwing up back there? Awkward. Poor bloke.

"Griffin claws!" he supplied, waggling his fingers as though he was waving, though it was more like a sort of instinctual fidget. "The claws of griffins." In case that wasn't clear and someone thought he was talking about a Ravenclaw/Gryffindor hybrid. "They're used in wands. My wand has a griffin claw in it." Just FYI.

Obediently though, he waited, and when Josie joined him, the Gryffindor couldn't help but smile. She was awesome, and a Ravenclaw, which was definitely a good thing in terms of having someone to work with if the opportunity arose. Smart one she was. Oohhhh and jobberknoll feathers, hehe they'd used those recently too.
As for his own response, something to share....
Zeke's hand shot up into the air. "Clabbert tooth, Professor! It's my wand core." And it was EPIC. Clabbert's were super cool too, in general, he'd read about them before school started and everything!

And really there were a whole ton of creatures that ended up as wand cores in some way, which was cool. Her own wand had a banshee hair for a core.

"Correct.. hairs and other parts from creatures are used for wand making."

"Unicorn hair, sir. Rare, but useful for all sorts of things - namely wand cores," because duh aspiring wandmaker, "AND it can be an ingredient used in potions," because duh also an aspiring potioneer. And they'd even just used it in the hate potion they had brewed in their first potions class of the term.
Beautiful answer, wasn't it?

Hearing the first question asked, she raised her hand almost instantly waiting to be picked on. "U-Um, there's the feather of the J-Jobberknoll..That is u-used in Truth S-Serums & M-Memory Potions.." She recently found this out when she had been doing some reading in her Potions book after the incident when she had tripped & tumbled in History of Magic, seeing as to how she was rushing because she was almost late for class. So she figured that perhaps a Memory Potion might be able to help her remember when she had class & not be late. So, yes, Jobberknoll feathers were used in Memory Potions.

"Unicorn horns can be used in lots of potions. Mostly it's used for a common antidote to most poisons. Doesn't mean it always works, but it mostly works. So yeah. That's definitely a benefit." She said with a nod. There were lots of things in the unicorn that were useful--she was surprised she even know what kind of potion the horn was used for. She would have mentioned the blood thing, but then again--that was only half a benefit, wasn't it? Immortality....but a cursed life...yeah, Eden didn't really consider that a benefit.

"Re'em blood is used in potions and to give the drinker immense strength," he answered before lowering his hand. Funny that it was a potion item he could think of to supply. His worst subject helping out his favorite one?

"Well, Billwig stings are used in candy or something. And in potions," Rumplestiltskin replied. He was going to keep calm and not make a scene in this class...not until he saw what the subject of the lesson was, of course.

She wasn't really listening but it took the Ravenclaw longer to think back to her textbook reading before she could respond. She hadn't focused much on this lesson after all.
"Bicorn horns are used in the Polyjuice Potion" she offered. It wasn't a brilliant usage but at least she had referred to the exact name. Had anyone mentioned that already? Did she really care if they had?
No.
As for the rest of the class the fifteen-year-old couldn't help but notice the drama queen throwing up in the corner. He'd probably over-indulged in the great hall or something. He recieved no sympathy, just a roll of the eyes. ALL the kids were like that at this school. Mental.
Absolutely bonkers.
Oh and she HAD noticed Eden's little wave to get her attention but Layla hadn't adhered to it. She was quite content in the corner over here. Away from the crazies. Well WELL away.

Not that he knew much about that because did he need a love potion to make someone fall in love with him? LOL. No. Whitty charm.
Oh will you look at that? Someone couldn't handle the class. Buckle up, kid.

She was going to say something from a unicorn, but a bunch of other people already said that. So instead her answer was directly connected to that boy... Ruby's brother... Gabe, as Zahra called him. "Armadillo bile is useful in potions, sir." But not anxiety throw-up. She averted her eyes from the pile of sick and instead tried to also gesture towards Gabe for the professor.

But hm. Thinking.
He wanted to be original with this one. 'Cause despite anyone's suspicious Zander did actually read TWO informational books over the summer (not counting superhero comics because he read like five hundred of those). And one just so happened to be Magical Beasts and Where to Find Them. That and Magical Water Plants of the Mediterranean 'cause you know ahem. Not thinking about it. La la la. Not thinking about her.
"Salamander blood!" heheeee he remembered that one because salamander was so much fun to say. "I think I remember reading that it has the ability to cure or something?" That was helpful. Right?

"Professor I know unicorn blood is used in some potions and it give the drink eternal life but also a cursed life."He didn't remember someone mentioning it, but if they did then they were thinking on the same page.
"Indeed.. but just like our own, it's never recommended to drink it."

"Indeed.. other than in potions, some use them for facial cleansing and for the ground."

Seriously, where was that coming from and WHY? You could never be too sure any more.
It seemed almost impossible at first, but Alexa managed to pry her attention fro the hedges long enough to make an attempt at the Professor's question.
"You've also got Billywig stings. Those have been proven useful and entertaining." They were the stuff in Fizzing Whizbees, yeah? That was all she cared to know. Dead useful it was and now she was missing her candy bag even more. It had a couple packs of the stuff in it and she could have used some right about now.
Also, the question got her wondering. Was this a collection class?
"Correct. Billywig stings excrete out a slime that makes it essential."

He raised his hand and when recognized, answered Professor. Don't know the truth of it now, but I've read about folks using dragon scales to make armor. it would be really! really sweet to have dragon scale armor.
It's nice to know he was speaking of actual dragon scales. "It's possible.. their skin is used as articles of clothing and wear due to their endurance and to protect us from many injuries." Like the said gloves for example.

Jasmine was still perplexed by her Aladdin encounter. Mercifully the Professor called the class to order. And a question was posed right off the bat. This time she had an answer ready so she raised her hand. "Acromantula venom is used in potions and it is very valuable." There, Jasmine had made her initial contribution. Now she could sit back, listen and take notes as necessary.
"Indeed.. It's considerably even more valuable when extracted whilst they're still alive." Which not many were willing to take the risk at understandably.

Items collected from magical creatures used for our benefit. Hmm. There was a few that she could think of but they had all already been said by someone else. Remembering something she was told once she raised her hand into the air. "Demiguise hair. It's really valuable and can be used to make invisibility cloaks."
Lowering her hand into her lap she smiled softly sitting straighter in her spot.
"Correct." Speaking of that reminded him that he was due to replace his old one.

An interesting thought as he curtly nodded. "Novelty-wise the jewels are more valuable while attached to the shell." On the muggle side however... well, he wasn't going to go that route with these students.

Just as he was about to walk back over to Jasmine the Professor spoke. Hmmm.
Hmmmmm.
Hmmmmm. Knowing only one magical creature Aladdin raised his hand and said "Phoenix Feathers can be used in multiple things...also...my name is Bastion...it's Aladdin." Biting his lip after he said his answer, he was nervous about this. Were Phoenix Feathers actually useful for magical things? Aladdin didn't really know so he just took a stab in the dark at that. He prayed that his answer would be at least semi right.
Also why did the Professor call him 'Mr. Bastion'? That wasn't even close to his name! People at this place were just butchering his name. Who was this Gregoire or Bastion person that they spoke of? Did Aladdin bump his head, and was this all just a big dream? Pinching himself to make sure he gave a little yelp as he pinched a bit harder than he wanted to. One thing was certain though...
Definitely not a dream.
Another reason to have his eyebrow quirk up. Aladdin... riight. "Phoenix feathers are indeed useful."

He swallowed hard, trying to focus on the professor's voice. Gabe wanted to answer the question...but what were words. He couldn't...make his voice work. He. Was. Terrified.
'Occamy eggs. From Occamies. Liquid Luck potion and.....the shells.....He and Jere had researched....'

...get distracted by a guy throwing up back there? Awkward. Poor bloke.
Now what was going on back there?
Javy's face went blank at some of the reactions as he got up to make his way over. Lovely.. A student had just thrown up. Least it was out on the grounds. Lazily he flicked his wand toward the vile on the ground cleaning it up right away before the smell could reach any others.
Now who was the unlucky student? Took a few moments before the name from the roster jogged his memory. "Mr. Banner.. are you going to be okay to continue on the lesson with us?" The kid was looking quite pale. A chocolate frog usually was offered in these circumstances unless he had the stomach flu. Which meant he would need to get it taken care of. "If not.. I suggest you head on back and make your way to the Hospital Wing immediately." It was his choice really.
Once that was more or less being taken care of, it was time to move on ahead. Making his way back to the original table he was on.
"Alright. Now today we'll be capturing some Fairies and of course you'll be needing some jars to hold them in." Javier was pleased to see how many brought their own today. "No matter if you don't have one, there's some spare ones here." Using his feet to push the box full of them from under the benches into full view. There were also the familiar sparkling glitter gloves wedged in too just in case.. "Just make sure to clean them." Since they were looking on the dirty side inside of them.
"Now whenever you're ready with your gloves and jar, head on inside." With that the Professor went on over to one of the bushes to push through, making an entry point for them as he waited next to the opening. They were free to move in now.
--- OOC: As instructed, take the/your jar and enter through the bushes. Next post will be around 12-2pm EST. =)

CAPTURING FAIRIES?! Now THIS was a lesson Rumple could get into!
Grinning, he hurried forward once the professor unleashed them and he grabbed one of the jars the professor had brought. How was Rumple supposed to know he needed to bring a jar?? He took out his wand and muttered "Scourgify!" and the somewhat dirty jar was cleaned and shiny looking once again. He DID have gloves in his bag, so he grabbed those and put them on.
Then he hurried over to the opening in the bushes where the professor was waiting, smirking as he made his way over. This was SO exciting. He couldn't want to make potions and use their magic for spells with all that fairy dust!!!

Ruby was torn between concern for her brother and the stronger reaction of: OMG GABRIEL NO GROSS THAT IS SO EMBARASSING EVERYONE IS LOOKING AND THE PROFESSOR JUST SAID BANNER AND WHAT IF PEOPLE THINK I VOMIT TOO BY ASSOCIATION UGH.
Not to mention if the smell of it wafted this way, she maybe WOULD vomit and she could not have THAT.
Ruby bit her lip and tipped her head back slightly, eyes seeking answers from the heavens.
Luckily there was one good distraction, fairies!
And maybe she could distract David from staring at Gabriel at least. One less person staring at Gabe and likely giving him even more anxiety was the least she could do without causing a giant scene herself. Ruby nudged David. "Want to work together? And maybe you could help me clean my gloves, I'm not so good at that, and I knooooow you're good at spells." Mhmm, remember the butterfly? She smiled brightly at him and rest her hand on his arm, commanding his attention.

FAIRIES?? Norah bounced excitedly on the bench as she reached down to pull a jar from her bag. Pointing her wand on the inside, she muttered "Scourgify" juuust in case, 'cause she wanted her fairy to be comfortable in there. Then she could live in there forever and ever and they could be best friends! Grinning at Professor Thompson, she leapt from the bench and pulled on her gloves. She skipped to the opening in the bushes and resisted the urge to start whistling. FAIRIES, YIPPEE!
Once that was more or less being taken care of, it was time to move on ahead. Making his way back to the original table he was on.

There was very little hesitation. As if the boy hadn't given it any thought at all, Cutty was up from his seat grabbing a pair of the sparkly gloves, donning them and with only his jar and wand he dove at an almost running speed into the hedges after Professor Thompson had cleared a spot like an elephant path. He could hear the piercing little laughter of the small flying creatures and it thoroughly made him want to hunt.

Reason: I feel like I should've been more specific & OMG Gabe! XD
Toby's attention was instantly drawn to the Banner kid throwing up on the floor, mainly because Z was sort of not letting it go unnoticed. He didn't stare for very long though, because manners were a THING. Instead he focused on JaaAAATHOMPSON. Thompson. That guy, and his instructions.
Oh. The jars. Oh. Oh.
Yep, Toby had totally forgotten about bringing a jar to the lesson and, upon searching his schoolbag, he discovered that his gloves hadn't made it to the class either. Oops?
Soooooooooo he had to go get a jar AND a sparkly pair of gloves provided by the professor, not that he minded being a GLITTER PRINCE today. In fact, if he'd have known, Toby would have worn the glittery wings that Wade had given him for his birthday so long ago.
Now armed with the glittery gloves (which he balanced on his shoulder for now) and a kind of dirty looking jar (that the Hufflepuff was cleaning using the corner of his crisp white school shirt, making it no longer all that clean and white, and as usual forgetting that magic was a thing), Toby headed over to the bushes too.
"We're not gonna keep them in the jars for very long are we-*coughcough*... sir?" he asked, kinda halting towards the end of that sentence. Man, let's not have another 'Piersie' fiasco, please. Toby just looked busy, continuing to use his school shirt and also his tie to try and get the grime and dirt off of the jar.

Samantha was liking the idea of capturing fairies. She took off her gloves and aimed her wand at them whilst saying, "Scourgify!" Now the gloves were clean inside and out. She then aimed her wand inside her jar and said, "Scourgify!" Sam then put her gloves pack on and headed inside the entrance point to begin her search.

Wait, really? Were they really going to be capturing fairies today? Well, that certainly made sense as to why they were supposed to bring their gloves & a jar to today's lesson. She did figure that perhaps they were going to be capturing something, but she hadn't the slightest idea to be honest what it would be, but after finding out that she was going to be searching for fairies, the third year couldn't help but feel the anticipation growing. She'd read plenty of books & stories, facts & myths, among a many number of others things about fairies, but was never fortunate enough to be close enough to see them in person. Did anyone know that they could lay up to 50 eggs in one hatching? 50 EGGS?! How simply fascinating! But never mind that now sadly, it was time for them to begin their search.
Standing up, she took a moment to put her clean gloves on & then pulled out recently cleaned jar. Feeling like she were ready, the third year followed in pursuit of everyone else as she made her way towards the bushes.
....What if she actually did manage to catch a fairy?

Ruby's brother was throwing up somewhere off to the side, but Lux was not paying any attention to it because Professor Thompson was talking about capturing FAIRIES. She had never seen a fairy in real life, and this would be a fun experience for sure.
Eagerly she grabbed a jar and pair of gloves from the front. Oops, she had accidentally forgotten to bring her own to class. With the workload they were getting from the Professors, sometimes not a lot of sleeping happened which resulted in a forgetful Lux.
Plus side was that now she was all GLITTERY. Hehe.
With a good old "Scourgify!" her jar was cleaned and she was ready for business. Skip skip off she headed into the bushes.
...Vomiting Gabe? No thanks. Soph heard it, but she stole a glance to see WHO it was only once the sound was done, and she... immediately looked straight at CB. THAT was the guy she liked so much? Soph tried not to look as amused as she was and peeled her gaze away from that group and back to Thompson, suppressing laughter - not AT Gabe, but more at... the general situation. The guy was really good at being impressive, wasn't he? Heheheh.
Her own pair of gloves and jar were already clean, but she gave each of them an extra scourgifying just out of habit. She rose to her feet, then, and followed the group through to the next part - casually and quickly poking Thompson on the arm on the way. Hehe. GOT HIM.
Duh. Of course he could sit. Why would he even ask? He asked silly questions, but she was glad for the company. Sure, there were plenty of other people she could've joined- Like Soph and Tobes, but she wanted to give them some space. Not because they made her feel like a third wheel, heck no. She just liked watching them be cute and she couldn't do that from close up. Plus, they deserved some space. She'd always been fearful of being too clingy and annoying.
So. They'd get silly faces from a distance every so often. Just 'cause.
After the question had been asked, Coral let her eyes drift as the voices piped up with their answers, she let her legs swing ever so slightly. Just as she was about to interject with her own answer, thestral tail hair, Professor Thompson was already moving on, so she kept quiet.
Oh... but.... Oh.
Gabe...
She tried her best not to pay it any attention. The Professor'd take care of him if anything was really wrong, right? He'd probably just run away from her if she'd gotten too close anyway. But that didn't stop her from wanting to check on him. Maybe... after class... she'd leave him a note. Yeah. That'd do.
And oh, yes. She'd caught that look, SOPHIE BROWN. But.. she didn't know how to respond. So... she just sorta frowned at the other girl.
Shooting Zander another grin, she pulled her gloves from her bag and slipped them on, taking the jar once settled. She hopped up onto her feet, swaying ever so slightly as she'd done that way too fast and moved toward the hedge.

A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself.
Kevin was dissapointed that Eden hadn't been scared of his subtle threat. And Gabe vomited? LOL!
He stood up from his place to grab one of the school jars because he didn't have one himself and when he held it in his hands he cleaned it with a quick scourgify and looked curiously at the Professor. They were gonna catch fairies? Cool! Are we gonna rip their wings off to gather ingredients?"...huh? He asked as he passed the Professor to enter the bush he held open for them. Oh and also, he was waiting for a spell they could use. Because then he could ACCIDENTALLY jinx Eden muwahaha. See? He was growing up! He actually planned his attacks now.

Once that was more or less being taken care of, it was time to move on ahead. Making his way back to the original table he was on.
"Alright. Now today we'll be capturing some Fairies and of course you'll be needing some jars to hold them in." Javier was pleased to see how many brought their own today. "No matter if you don't have one, there's some spare ones here." Using his feet to push the box full of them from under the benches into full view. There were also the familiar sparkling glitter gloves wedged in too just in case.. "Just make sure to clean them." Since they were looking on the dirty side inside of them.
"Now whenever you're ready with your gloves and jar, head on inside." With that the Professor went on over to one of the bushes to push through, making an entry point for them as he waited next to the opening. They were free to move in now.

Tooth.
HE had said TOOOOTH... not hair. Did that mean he was wrong? Because he wasn't and had proof of that too. Zeke blinked, watched the Professor respond to others.
...
And huh? Did someone puke? Groooooossss....... Meh.
He knew he'd forgotten something, his jar... or had he forgotten? Zeke opened his bag and searched through both pockets and TADAAAA! Found a jar. He HAD remembered, but then forgotten that he remembered and yeah. Either way, he had one! Heheeeee.
He wasn't sure how he felt about catching fairies. Like, weren't fairies... girly and gentle and like, not something you went around catching?? He was certain Avery would have a fit if she heard about this. Unless she wanted to keep one for herself? The girl had interesting logic sometimes.
Nevertheless, he was ready and rearing to go. Slipping on his gloves and putting his bag back down, Zeke followed a number of the others through the bushes with his jar.
Agatha had brought her own pair of gloves, of course, so she took them out of her bag and put them on before getting one of the jars Cutty had brought down. She shot a disgusted look at the boy who puked then rolled her eyes when he passed out. Weak people had the silly habit of getting in the way. Morgana.
When she was ready, the Slytherin followed some of her classmates who were already entering through the path professor Thompson made for them in between the bushes. Time to go Fairy hunting. That sounded fun. She wondered what the fairies would do once they were trapped in a jar. Maybe they'd get desperate and freak out or make faces or plead her to let them go.
This should be fun.

The response her answer had received had been met with dubiousness from Brooklyn. She wasn’t particularly planning on drinking dragon’s blood any time soon, or salamander’s or unicorn’s or any other creature’s that hadn’t been mentioned. She wasn’t a vampire, after all. That idea was just stupid, and she didn’t blame the older boy who had thrown up. He’d probably thought about drinking blood and gotten sick, which was his problem. Not hers, although she’d drawn her feet up onto the bench just in case more people followed his lead. She wasn’t getting vomit on herself, thank you very much. Luckily, whatever illness hadn’t seemed contagious, and she’d lowered her feet again as the class had continued.
So they were catching fairies. Her first question was why, and she’d glanced at the Gryffindor who’d suggested they were going to rip their wings off. She wasn’t ripping anyone’s wings off. Not unless they deserved it, and the fairies hadn’t irritated her yet. Unless they’d been the ones giggling earlier, but even that wasn’t bad enough to deserve anything worse than ignoring them. Well, and apparently locking them up in jars, as she momentarily forgot if she’d brought one. A quick rifle through her bag located a small jar, as well as her gloves which were quickly put on. The jar was clean, too, which was more than she could’ve said for the professor’s. Standing up, she followed the others through the opening in the bushes, blue eyes going back to the professor as she waited for him to say what they were supposed to do next.

Angel didn't want to hurt the fairies but as long as they were in the jars long it couldn't hurt right. She looked around and smiled this was going to be amazing and she had brought her own jar though she decided to wash it anyway.
Angel took out her wand and unscrewed the lid before pointing her wand in the Jar. "Scourgify!" Angel waited until the jar was clean before stopping the spell... she then put on her gloves when she was ready she heading on where the Professor had pointed. She was still a bit scared about what was about to happen to the fairies they were capturing.

Poor Gabriel. Some people were just sensitive to.......things. Apparently he was one of them. Jasmine felt badly for him. Was he going to be able to hang in there or did he need to see the Healer? She hoped it was the former.
Fairies. Jasmine wasn't exactly sure how she felt about that. This was Care of Magical Creatures though so surely they would be doing only good things with the fairies. While she pondered this, Jasmine took her gloves and a jar out of her book bag. Raising her wand to the gloves, she said, "Scourgify". She made sure to clean the gloves inside and out. Then she repeated the process with her jar. Wouldn't want to hold the fairy hostage in a nasty jar, now would she?
When all of her preparations were completed, Jasmine followed the Professor and her classmates through the bushes. She stood there waiting and wondering what the next instructions would be.

Fairies? They were going to be capturing fairies! Just wait until Jaxon heard about this. Hady couldn't wait and she got to her feet the moment the Professor had told them that they could. She pulled out her gloves from her bag and slipped them on before taking out her jar.
She knew they were both clean but she cast a quick "Scourgify" on them anyhow. She had her clean jar and clean gloves. Now to follow everyone through the 'bushes'? Shrugging a shoulder she carefully made her way through the bush to the other side.
What were they supposed to be doing now? They wouldn't be harming the fairies would they? Hady sure hoped not.

So that what the giggling was...Fairies!
Ben listened intently as the Professor spoke of what he wanted them to do, reminding them first and foremost of what he had asked them to bring today. Yep, he had one jar, the Gryffindor pulling it out of his bag along with his gloves that always came with him to the class. One look at the sparkly gloves in the first lesson they had been shown had given extra incentive to remember them.
His jar already cleaned after he had appropriated it, Benny counted himself as ready to move on as Professor Thompson had described. The fourth year moving to follow Angel and they rest of those students already moving inside the grove.
Yeah I broke that mirror, so what? ll NOT backward ll Official Gryfferin ll Lemon's favourite
Now that he said they were fairies...it actually kinda started making sense, the giggling that is. Nothing too serious and nothing to worry about really. Her OWL had had a fairy in it, one she had to chase and she was almost sure it'd been laughing at her by the end, like the Examiner who'd caught it in a jar for her by the time she'd gotten to the end. So much disappointment in one afternoon but at least she'd had fun! How many exams could she say that about?
Also, they were meant to take JARS?? Since when? What? Was that a rule?? Next time she sent someone to check the noticeboard for her, she'd make them tell her the WHOLE thing or she could check herself if she wasn't so lazy.
Lex walked up and grabbed a jar--WAAAAIIIITTTTT. Merlin this was getting annoying.
"Er...Professor....I...I don't have a wand. D'you mind uh...scourgifying this for me?" She'd say please if it'd help.
OOC: Bunz took her wand when she was Maleficent so she doesn't remember the Headmistress still has it ^^

The Gryffindor nodded at the other answers. He read about those things tooo! Well, most of the those things anyways. A lot of the things mentioned were used in wands. Like unicorn hair. What if human hair was put in a wand? What would that doo?! Of course, he didn't really have time to ask or anything because as soon as all the answers were heard, they were up and about again. Oh. Okay.
He slowly got up from the bench and returned CB's grin with one of his own. Setting both his jar and his gloves out on the bench, he cast a quick "Scourgify," and then followed CB towards the hedge.

~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
Fairieeees! That would explain the giggling! Cool! Kevin's question though...Adi shook his head. Something was wrong with that dude.
Uh oh. The fourth year had forgotten his jar. Thankfully, Professor Thompson had brought some. He grabbed one form the box, eyeing the glittery gloves. Good thing he hadn't forgotten his own pair.
"Scourgify!'' Jar cleaned, Adi hurried along to follow the other students through the bushes. Here they came, fairies!

Marigold took a couple notes, mainly talking about the different categories because she couldn't write every single example down. Fairies, eh? She pulled on her own clean gloves that she had brought, then shuffled over to get a jar. "Scourgify," just like in potions, then she followed the professor through the bushes.
