| | Lord Borr's Midday Lesson Lord Borr had been SO BUSY ALL DAY LONG! His day job never ended. Never. Always something to do, someone to mentor, a LIFE TO CHANGE! Today, he would be changing and molding the young minds of Hogwarts.
His classroom had been abused by slow Ethan, but no more! TODAY THIS ROOM WOULD ABSORB KNOWLEDGE LIKE IT HAD NOT SINCE THE LAST TIME LORD BORR HAD GRACED IT.
He knew he'd have to start with the basics. A good foundation. THE VERY BEGINNING. Hopefully there would be NO NEED to diaper the students of Hogwarts again. Even though he was not BELOW (he wasn't below ANYONE, ACTUALLY) such discipline in order to ENSURE ORDER. Lord Borr opened all the windows and let the sun SHINE into his classroom. His domain. His castle. "HURRY UP STUDENTS! I DON'T HAVE ALL DAY!!! AND YOU NEED EVERY SECOND YOU CAN GET WITH ME! COME IN. SIT DOWN. DON'T EMBARRASS YOURSELF." Lord Borr beat the door frame with his cane as he spoke each word clearly, decisively, and with ample amount of saliva spray. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: November {Noe} Franze First Year | Brain Twin | MASTAH ASHURRII | Reisdent PokeNerd | Digifangirl Midday... seemed an awfully strange time for the class, honestly, but Issy was not going to speak up. She had head stories about this man and he was not the sort to start anything with. Egomania ran strong in this one. Wincing at the all the sunlight, Issy slunk into the classroom with her head bowed.
Why was he being so loud? And ushering them like cattle? SHE WAS NOT A COW! Ag. While darting into the classroom, she had to be careful to avoid his spray of spittle. EW. So the stories hadn't been exaggerations after all.
"H'lo, Professor," she muttered reluctantly.
Professor? Him? HAH.
Slipping into a seat near the middle of the room, a habit conditioned from sitting beside Willow Kovac all these years, Issy set her bag atop her table and drummed her fingers atop the table. When Borr taught at the boys' school, Issy had heard tales of proper hygiene.
Something told her Astronomy may not be the lesson taught today. Eeep. |

Satine hurried into the classroom and examined the new Professor. She was really unsure of what to think of him, but she found a seat and pulled out her book and parchment and her fave purple quill ready to take notes since that was all they did in Astronomy last year.....
She smiled at the Professor, "Hello Professor!" she said sucking in the sun coming through the windows.

Frantically taking a seat, Tibi dug through his bag and pulled out a quill and parchment and sat straight ahead, not daring to look back at the large man.
There was still spittle on his face, but he didn't dare try to wipe it off.

....In the middle of the day? On the first floor? At least he had the windows open. Xander had heard some SERIOUS stories about this Professor person jellyroll dude. Which is why, as he walked in the door, he immediately bowed his head. "Hello, Professor."
Walk faster, walk faster -- OH ISSY. He pulled out the seat next to her and sat himself down. It was weird being one of the first students in the room. But at least he was there.
Right. Good Xander.

Fallon walked into the old History of Magic classroom and came face to face with the new Astronomy Professor. He was rather different then Forrester and she could tell she probably wouldn't like him very much.
"Hello Professor," She said timidly as she entered the classroom.
Fallon walked over and sat next to Satine and started to grabbed things out of her bag. She set a new piece of parchement and got her new Slythie green pen out of her bag. She was already to take notes on whatever the class was going to be about. She had no idea how they were going to learn about Astronomy from the center of the school.

Willie sneaked into class, even though class wasn't usually snuck into, but he was Willie and Willie did what Willie thought was best. He had his back against the wall as he moved in the most smoothest way ever (or so he thought so). He had heard amongst his fellow students that Borr was one of the cruelest people around, and he did want to see it himself. Luckily, he was a third year so he was allowed to get into this class.
Finding a desk he was pleased with, Willie slid down and kept his head low. He had his hood up the whole time so no one would recognize him, even though it was a bit pointless to do it. The hufflepuff's eyes scanned the room as he waited for the class to start.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Rishi Kapoor First Year | Film Addict! | ♥ Suraj Sharma ♥| TIGRESS! Lucy walked slowly into the classroom, the classroom she now had love being in, for it was home to one of her most favorite subjects: Astronomy. She smelled the air of the classroom and...well, it just didn't compare to the original Astronomy classroom. Pssh. And there stood the obnoxious looking Lord Berty Borr Blahdidoodah of...erugh. This guy made Lucy nervous in the past but right now...she was going to have as much fun as possible with him. Hopefully, however, there would be tons of focus on Astronomy so that this class would still be bearable. She looked around the classroom, and on the right edge of the seats, she sneaked into one of them, silently. |

| The REAL Sorting Hat: "Ravenclaw!" This monkey is bananas. This had to be the one class he really didn't want to go to. not that he hated Astronomy, he didn't. He loved it. But the Borr character was weird and he was nervous. As he entered the room he stopped, blinking and wincing as the man yelled at them all. Ducking a spray of spittle he hurried over to his seat and sat down, his breath coming in gasps.
He huffed, taking out his quill and parchment. This was going to be a long class.

OH MY GOSH!
Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygoooosh!
That is the biiiiig dude from Scribulus right? ...right?! Lyra had been scared of him without even meeting him and if she could, the second year would turn around right now and leave the room to hide....
But still, Lyra stayed because she liked Astronomy very much. Lyra choose a seat at the middle of the class, not wanting to show that she was scared and placed her bag beside her desk on the ground. Just when she started to take out her book some light went on in her brain. Astronomy? midday? first floor? ...that couldn't be right.

Emalyn hurried into the room, glancing at Borr as she did so. She had heard things, certainly, but...
He was quite a pompous little round man, wasn't he?
She smiled and nodded to Borr and took a seat, setting her bookbag on the desk in front of her. She glanced around...a midday Astronomy class? Well, better than no Astronomy at all.

| Wowza! From the second floor Willow had managed to hear the outrageous yelling coming all the way from the History of Magic Astronomy classroom, which had provoked a frown to appear on her face.
Whatever was the matter with that big stranger standing by the door? Was THIS supposed to be the new professor?
Lovely.
Someone that wasn't aware of the fact that yelling was considered improper most of the time was going to teach them. More like he needed to be taught manners and perhaps even more than a little bit of common sense.
Ridiculous people.
"Good day, Professor," Mused the brunette cooly yet politely, to What's-His-Name standing by the door, before walking straight to the seat behind Isabella and claiming it at hers.

Although LouAnn had no idea who in Merlin's name Professor Borr was, she'd heard lots about him. Apparently he used to teach History of Magic here at Hogwarts and, upon returning to teach Astronomy, had kicked the current History of Magic professor out of both his office and classroom area. For those reasons, LouAnn found herself curious to meet this man and see for herself just what it was he possessed that made him capable of kicking a person out of their very own office.
When she rounded the corner and caught her first glimpse of the man, he was ordering the students inside his classroom (quite loudly, mind you), while banging his cane against the door frame. LouAnn stopped abruptly and blinked, a little startled at how demanding the man seemed to be. "Merlin!" she thought to herself, "I'd vacate my office, too, if this man came a banging!" Deciding that she was, as of now, a little afraid of this man, LouAnn fixated her eyes on the floor and scurried past him, finding an empty seat towards the back of the room.

Evelyn walked quickly into the classroom, only glancing at the professor slightly, giving him a small smile, before sitting down toward the back of the class as usual.

Nikki walkd into the class, and was surprised to see that she was one of the first there. It also felt weird that there was an astronomy lesson in he middle of the day...
However, she was looking foward to the class and couldn't wait to begin! She bowed her head nervously and said "Hello Professor", before taking her seat towards the front of the room.

Just from the way the new Asronomy professor greeted her as she walked into the rrom all he could think was this guy is just full of himmself, uh. She quickly shrugged that off and just rolled her eyes as she took a seat and waited for class to start.

SooSOSOOOOOO WHO exactly was their new Astronomy professor???
Cam suspiciously entered the room, his snout still visible on his face, but ohhh he didn't care. What he DID care about was this... huge... guy. He stared at the very big man, but was especially interested in that cool-lookin' mustaaache of his. He would trade his snout for that mustache...
SNOUT < MUSTACHE. "Hiiii professah... errrr..." No, he didn't knooooow the man's name BUT YAHHHH yah. He just... walked away and sat down next to Willie, still... SUSPICIOUS of this neeewwww man.

Miranda peeked through the doorway and was met with a most unusual sight. This was a History of Magic lesson right? And Professor Truebridge was nowhere to be seen...
Though, that stout old man couldn't possibly be him right?
If it was, he had eaten ALOT during the summer... Polyjuice potion?
Miranda walked towards a seat, greeting the Professor as she went. "Good day, uh... sir." she stammered. What was his name??
Looking around the classroom, Miranda noticed Emalyn - waved - and with a grin, went to sit next to her.
If something went terribly wrong in this class, atleast Miranda would have someone to hide behind she felt safe with.

Phoebus was...scared of Lord Borr. Not that he'd tell anyone that, no way! But he was. So when he entered the class room he made a beeline for anyone he knew which at the moment looked like it might only be Louann. He slid into a seat right next to her, giving her a little smile before attempting to remain out of the sight of that rather large, loud and rotund man.

Miranda walked towards a seat, greeting the Professor as she went. "Good day, uh... sir." she stammered. What was his name?? Ema spotted Miranda. Finally, someone she knew! "Miranda! Over here!!!" she motioned for her friend to join her before she found her own seat. Ema trusted that the spot she had found would prevent them from being soaked with spit at the end of the class, anyway. "Sittt with meeee."

Berty Borr.
Even though Livvy had never actually had him, she had heard about him... and boy was he a 'hoot'. Memories of the crazy and rather stupid lessons they had back at Bella's & Cooper's came back and boy was she glad that it was all over with.
She walked into the classroom, coolly and smiled gently up at the man. "Hello um... Professor..." she said. What was she supposed to call him? Berty Borr? Professor Borr? Professor Berty? Sir Berty?! HMMM?! Livvy had no idea, so just plain old professor would have to do.
After a quick glance around the classroom, she picked a seat next to little William and sat down. "Hullo William," she said, cheerfully.

The fat man was banging his cane against the doorframe; that was the noise. What a welcoming introduction to class.
Dodging the man's spritzes of saliva as he hurried the students into the room, Sloane slipped passed him, somehow managing to avoid bumping into his rather large stomach. The first person she saw was Lucy Dawn, the girl who very much admired clouds. Without sparing a glance back at the professor, Sloane weaved her way through the desks until she reached one by the fifth year she met at Diagon Alley. "Hello, Lucy," she greeted, dropping her bag onto her newly claimed desk. She slid into her chair and gave a silent sigh, glad to have at least made it into the room. "Astronomy will certainly be interesting this year," she commented with a slight smile.

This was very exciting. He was actually going to have Astronomy! This will greatly help with the Runes and potions that deal with advance material! He walked into the room and greeted the first professor of the school he has ever greeted: "Hello, Professor."

Why. Was. He. Shouting?
How incredibly uncouth.
Daphne, however, walked in with a rather polite (albeit weak) smile on her face. "Good day Professor," she murmured in his direction, having a feeling he couldn't hear her over his own voice anyways.
Inside the classroom was that girl who was Willow's friend whose name she still didn't know. It seemed, like it would remain that way for the rest of the term. Unless Daphne took it upon herself to figure it out. Heh.
Oh, the blond had made a funny. Smiling genuinely at her own wit, Daphne took a seat by--ohhai Phoebus. Grinning at him she sat down and waited for class to begin.
