The class is the same with the proper chairs with soft cushions to sit and lean back on, and they are still are charmed to take the most comfortable shape and height once a student is seated. The walls are still a soft, calming blue. There are one big, grey rubbish bin by the door and a white, porcelain washbasin with a tap for those who wants to wash their hands before/after the class and who can't perform 'Aguamenti' charm.
The door is open 15 minutes before the class time. Professor Culloden is sitting at his desk and greets everyone very cheerfully.
OOC: If you are going to RP your characer use the washbasin or the bin, you don't have to take Cosgrach's permission. Just assume he has granted it.
The class has begun, so please do not post your characters late!

Extra notes
After completion, it needs to wait for a few minutes to mature.
It's a base potion, which can be stored for a year. The emotion to be decided after the creation of the base
The antidote is the base, which lifts the effect of the potion, so the person goes back to feeling whatever they were feeling before consumption. However, if a normal person drinks it, it makes them feel completely neutral and therefore confused. A full water glass of antidote is needed for full dose.
Full dose is half a water glass in any liquid.
Overdose is more than a full water glass in 24 hours. May cause severe emotional changes and/or only one emotion for an indeterminate time. SEEK PROFESSIONAL HELP IMMEDIATELY IN CASE OF AN OVERDOSE.
The duration of the potion depends on the brewer, but it's usually between 5 to 10 hours.
Colours are:
Happiness: Bright pink Sadness: Grey Tenderness: Orange Anger: Bright red Excitement: Bright yellow Fear: White

Yaaaaay, it was time for Lux's favourite class. She was so ready to learn about new potions and get to brewing. It sucked that she couldn't really do any over the summer because of the whole no magic thing, but at the end of term she would be 17!! It was VERY exciting to be of age.
Entering the classroom, she saw Culloden waiting at his desk. "Hello, Professor!" Taking a seat near the front, she waited for the lesson to begin.

Potions class was in the …dungeons right? He thought he had seen the classroom door when he had been searching for Professor Botros office and had been lost at that time. Walking inside the room feeling extremely nervous, Yoongi wondered how Hogwarts taught Potions classes. Hopefully it was better than at Charms School because he was HORRIBLE at it. The blue color in the classroom was strangely calming but not enough for his mind to not freak out. Alright, if he just listened carefully, did the steps it would be fine.
“Hello Professor, I’m Yoongi ,the charming transfer student from Charms School “ he flashed a smile but that could not hide the unease on his face. Should he tell he was dreadful at this subject? Thinking for a moment, Yoongi then turned around without saying anything else and sat down at the faaaaaaaar back of the room in the corner because if he messed up it would not be noticed. Hopefully…

It's not very hard to find the potion classroom since it's located at the lowest level in Hogwarts castle. The dungeon. After having some brunch, the Korean guy then walked to the dungeons. Ugh, was it always creepy and dark around here? He'd never been around the dungeons before.
Smiling, he entered the classroom and noticed the Professor was already there. Maybe he should introduced himself since he was a transfer student. "Professor... Culloden, right? I'm Jackson Hwang, fifth year and uh... transfer from Seoul." He slightly bowed to him. Hoped that he understood what he just said because of his Korean accent. Then he took a seat beside his dorm mate (Yoongi). "You don't mind if I sit here, do you?" He asked him.

Potions was one of his favourite subjects, easily, AND, he thought he was pretty darn good at it. He was, right? RIGHT?!
Nevertheless, grinning, the third year Gryffindor entered the potions class as he usually did and claimed a seat in the front row - as he usually did. He gave Lux a nod in greeting and extended one to the professor as well, "Hey, Professor."
He would have launched into conversation and asked about todays lesson, but he figured the man had better things to do while they all arrived, so instead he set about unpacking his things and preparing his notes page by scribbling the date in the corner. Once that was in order, he washed his hands in anticipation of what was to come.

Brooklyn still enjoyed the fact that one of her favorite classes happened practically right outside of her common room. It meant she didn’t have to do much to be there on time, if not early. Which is what she was, in her opinion. Early, and ready to brew potions. She had her hair pulled back in a braid, and all her Potions supplies were in her bag. All that was left was claiming her usual seat.
That proved not to be too difficult, as she entered the classroom to find it relatively empty. “Good morning Professor Culloden,” she said with a smile as she passed his desk. Yep. There was her preferred seat, and she planted herself there and sat with back straight. Regal. Of course, she got ready for whatever might come first, but still, she wasn’t letting anyone think she wasn’t who she really was.

It was time for Potions a lesson Hady normally enjoyed even if she had made a stupid careless mistake last term. However it was a new term now and that meant a new start for her.
Pushing the strap of her bag back up onto her shoulder after it had slid down her arm she made her way down the hall before entering the Potions room to find only a few others inside. "Good morning Professor,"she greeted quietly making her way towards her usual seat and sitting down. With a quick glance around the room and a friendly nod of her head in greeting towards her friends Hady then went about focusing on setting up her table with her parchment, quill, wand and other things she would need.

Checking his stuff over and over again because he was afraid he forgot something, Yoongi looked up when he heard a familiar voice beside him. Seeing Jackson standing there, Yoongi immediately grabbed his arm tightly as Jackson sat next to him. "Please tell me you're good at this subject?" he whispered in a low tone but loud enough for him to hear.

Ah yes. It’s that time of the day wherein he didn’t need to wake up too early to get in class on time. It was also that subject that he enjoyed...and aced during his exam last term. Uh-huh. Ethan was pretty sure that Professor Culloden would be delighted to see him continue with his class. The Slytherin confidently swaggered towards the classroom, and grinned at the man up front. “Hello, Professor Culloden! It’s nice to be back in your class.” Truth, yo.
The soon to be seventeen year old took his usual seat, and settled his things on the table. Parchments and his self inking quill were taken out of course, ready to record all the useful Potion information that Culloden will share.
Oh and...hi, Brooklyn! Ethan gave the tiny redhead a grin, as he sat back on his chair, waiting for the rest to arrive.

The Korean guy couldn't help but surprised when Yoongi grabbed his hand. He noticed that his fellow lion looked slightly panic. What's going on? The Professor seemed strict but not that scary. He could see the difference between scary person and the strict but nice one.
Please tell me you're good at this subject
Jackson just nodded and grinned at him. He didn't lie, Potions was the only subject that he didn't fail last year... and muggle studies too. "Why?" He asked. Let him took a guess, Yoongi was horrible in potions, wasn't he? Well, just hoped that he didn't make his cauldron explode today.

Janelle was in a good mood today and she hoped this would transfer to a good day in Potions class. Upon entering the classroom, she gave a cheerful greeting to the Professor. "Hello Professor Culloden", Janelle said with a smile. Then she washed her hands and headed for her seat.
Making herself comfortable, Janelle began to get her things in order, wondering what potion they would be brewing today. Keeping an eye on the arriving students, she sat back and waited for class to begin.

Oh, how we drift away from our friends. And the ones back home play remember when
Cilla entered the classroom. "Hello, Professor," she said as she smiled at him. She sat down next to Lux. Cilla smiled at her Hufflepuff friend as she placed the items she needed for the lesson and the desk in front of her.

He nodded! Jackson nodded!
Yoongi let out a breath of relief and finally let go of his arm. Why? did he really have to ask that?! Because admitting flaws was something Yoongi did not like. Because he was perfect, from head to toe. "Why'd you think?" he whispered back urgently and took a glance in the Professor's direction. Technically , class had not yet begun but he did not want the man to overhear their conversation. "Ok ok, i'm terrible at potions and i need to sit next to someone i can cheat off when things get drastic..you wouldn't mind right? please?" he rubbed his hands together in a begging motion. "Or else i'm going to sit next to Leah" where was she even?
Ilia walked into the classroom bowing politely to the professor. "Good morning sir." She said quietly and walked to find her seat. Looking around, she didn't see Henric or Leah yet, so she head farther back. There were two boys already whispering and one of them looked familiar. He name was....Yoongi, that's right. She took an unoccupied seat beside him and started pulling out her parchment and quill. Hopefully there wouldn't be anything like desk jumping in this class......
A ship in harbor is safe — but that is not what ships are built for.
Natalia could stand the practical work involved in brewing potions; even handling beetle eyes and slimy particles were livable (and sometimes, kind of fascinating). But what was NOT okay, was the odor.
Cautiously, the fourth-year Lioness first poked her head into the Potions classroom. After observing that only a few students have already arrived, Natalia slowly allowed the rest of her body to fit through the doorway and tip toed in, tilting her head slightly toward the ground to prevent as many pairs of eyes as possible from looking at her face mask. It was to block out the horrendous odor.
Hopefully, the professor won't mind, or even notice.
Natalia attempted to bury herself behind a desk in the back of the room. The farther away from the source of potion-brewing, the less of that stench she had to inhale into her lungs.
Norah hugged her bag close to her chest as she entered the potions classroom, stopping in front of Professor Culloden's desk to smile at him. "Hiiii Professor." She kept standing and smiling for a moment, wondering if she should say something else, before giving a little shrug that sent her want tumbling from behind her ear. Nobody saw that, right? Right. She stooped quickly to pick it up and instead of straightening up just crawled to the nearest empty seat.
She wiggled in order to get comfy on the familiar squishy chairs, then began pulling out her materials for the day's lesson. Hopefully they'd be doing something COOL.

YAY Potions! Zhenya's favourite! She was almost skipping to her last first Potions class of the term, and she walked into the classroom, washed her hands thoroughly, even though they were clean already, just to be safe, and stopped at Professor Culloden. "Hello Professor," she said, a big smile on her face. "Hope your summer was lovely and relaxing."

As Zhenya turned to find a seat, she saw a few familiar faces. She smiled and waved at Lux, Jackson, Zeke and Cilla, before sitting down next to Janelle.
"Hi," she said, greeting the young Eagle. Zhenya remembered her older sister fondly. "How are you Janelle?" she asked, then added, "How is Jasmine?"

Echo seemed like she had made it just in time, phew!!! Opening the door she came in to see a bunch of other students sitting down and Professor Culloden sitting at his desk "Hello Professor Culloden, hope your having a good day" she smiled at the man while she walked a bit faster to sit in a seat. She was just so tired the seat was so comfy and she was excited to be sitting down.
Henric wasn't in a mood for anything really, he was feeling down in the weather today on top of everything that happened to him.Remembering the time he had a discomforting encounter with Noel at the kitchens, some ridiculous rumour spreading among the school like wildfire, thanks to Aparecium and already he had his hands full with moaning mytle creeping up behind him as if he was her new catch of the day in the boys lavatory...brrr...*goosebumps*...and now potions class....which he barely pass again last year. Henric walked in with heavy steps and smiled weakly at the professor. "Hello,professor...good morning," he greeted softly before looking around for a seat. He spotted llia and he couldn't help be alarmed for a moment, she was his closest friend but people started to have suspicions about them.Henric felt it was best not to sit by her today to avoid getting her involved in the rumours again. And Leah....he didn't know what to say to her....she probably didn't want to speak to him anymore because of this and his situation with Noel....Hmm...
He found a corner at the far back...and sat there quietly.Staring blankly at the board, waiting for the class to start.

Abby entered the potions classroom and said "Good morning professor" Abby got out her wand and said "Aguamenti" Abby pointed her wand and stream of water to her hands and washed them quickly before class started and she put her wand back in its holster and got out her book and other things needed for class
Hugh was all about going to potions. Comfy cushions made for a comfy bottom and Hugh liked to be comfortable when he was in class...in case he zoned out to start philosophising. Some seats were better than others for that task. He had learned the hard way.
Sliding into the room-- actually sliding because tripping happened-- Hugh landed sitting in his hip all popped out to look fabulous and said, "Morrrrrning."
Dante liked potions. Especially when he did them right. Though doing them wrong was fun on occasion to. When he did not get in trouble or things do not blow up in his face. That was always nice.
Yes, Yes it was.

Adi's second favourite class EVAAAH! He walked into the room, a spring in his steps. He was looking forward to the lesson! Could they get started RIGHT NOW?! Hehe.
"Hallo, hallo, Professor!'' A cheerful grin for you. "How are you? Did you have a good summer? Are you going to be brewing complicated potions with anyone else this term?" He didn't mean to drown you in questions, Professor
Loads of students were already gathered and waved to most of them but he happened to notice someone all the way in the back... were they trying to hide or something? Curiously, Adi approached the person, flopping down into the seat beside them. "Hi. You're loosing the battle to hide there.'' And who are you, anyway?
Rusty was... still unconvinced about potions. Because all the potions she'd seen included bits of animal and.. well... just no. Nevertheless, she had to do it, it was compulsory, by the look of it, so here she was.
She smiled at the professor as she entered the room and found herself a seat, not introducing herself like she had done in all her other classes, but to be honest she was a little nervous about what might be asked of her in this lesson...
Iselin skipped into the room "Hello Professor." she gave him a polite head non before going over to a work station close to the front of the room. She needed to be sure she understood everything this class. She set out a few things from her bag in front of her before looking around the room. so many interesting people here!
