Hecate had finished setting up her classroom. The tables and chairs were there but the burners were not there. Instead, in their place was a slimey... wet creature, which had the body of a fish and the legs of a frog which just happened to be tied together. A box of tools being used as propping the creature up a bit...
This may be a hard class.
Oh well... maybe they'd like it or maybe... don't really care...
ooc: This class will stay open for at least 72 hours (probably more.) Also thanks to Antarctica! for taking the picture of the Potions Classroom for me at the WWoHP, and to Ameh for makin it into a pretty graphic!

"Hello everyone." she said rubbing her temples. "If you would please stop talking among yourselves and pay attention. This is a very important class." She said in a tired sounding voice. "Let's see how many of you know what this," she gestured to the creature on the tables, "is."

He thought he'd heard someone guess, and West put his own hand up to suggest, "A plimpy, professor?"
She looked a bit tired. West was being good and he kept his voice down instead of getting all enthusiastic and loud like normal.

Professor Lafay didn't appear to be in the best of spirits. With this in mind, Ella raised her hand and waited for her turn to speak. "Professor, I also think it might be a plimpy." From what she'd read about the creatures, they did look quite like fish with frog-like legs...quite like the creature on the table.
Grayson finally remembered what it was and raised his hand. He said,"Professor would that be a Plimpy. A creature with the body of a round fish and two legs ending in webbed feet."

Zhenya wasn't really sure what it was. She didn't want to suggest a wrong answer, so she chose not to answer it. She just sat there, ready to write down what it was, and to listen to what answered everyone else gave. She did want to know what it was because it was sort of normal looking, but sort of weird looking. What was it?

She had been examining the weird looking creature from afar and noticed it had the body of a fish but also had some frog like things to. Raising her hand thinking it was the creature she had found her brother reading about for some class. Is the creature a Plimpy, mam?

Minerva sat quietly has Professor Lafay talked to the class. She wasn't sure what that was so she just listened to the others. Most were calling it a Plimpy, so Minerva wrote that on her parchment to make sure she had it for reference later.

*cough*
Dylan eyed the thing...not really knowing if it was a Plimpy or not...but figured he'd go with the popular answer, anyway. After raising his hand..."A plimpy, ma'am..."
Of course after eying the thing for a few moments, he noted that the legs were, indeed, tied together. He'd remembered reading somewhere that if the plimpy was seen with it's legs tied, that merpeople were sure to be in the area...
He'd thought maybe he could offer this information...but thought better of it. His Head of House didn't seem to be in the best mood and Dylan did value his life.
Angelina didn't know what exactly what it was, so she wouldn't guess. Many guesses came to her but she didn't want to take a change. The creature was a bit strange. After doing some thinking from remembering from some books she took a wide guess. She felt the need at the moment to answer. By raising her hand she said, "Umm.. Professor, is it a plimpy?"
Annabelle was wondering what the creature was. It looked repulsive to her. She didn't really fancy the creature. "Professor isn't that creature a plimpy?" Belle asked when she raised her hand. She didn't know if it was right, but at least she gave it a shot.

Kimalia nodded in understanding, noting how exhausted Professor Lafay sounded. Wanting to impress her, she rose her hand, "It looks to be" ugly "a Plimpy." At least they had a cute name, Kimalia wonder what they were going to do what with, cook and eat them? No wait, the burners were missing weren't they? Hmm..

Jonathan closed his Potions book when Professor Lafay has now spoken and has officially started the Potions lecture. She kinda look tired? But that was not really bothering him at all. He's just happy that Professor Lafay is now starting the lecture and at least now, he could stop getting too distracted about stuffs.
Then she raised the first question by asking them what the slimey creature in front of them is. What is it? Jonathan stared at it long enough and cringed a bit. Ack. Everyone knows what this is, Jonathan raised his hand and averted his gaze over to the Professor. Looking at the creature might make him cringe even more, and it's not good "It's a plimpy, professor"

She wanted to see how many of them knew what that thing was? As usual, it seemed most of the other students knew what it was, and as usual, Penelope didn't. So she sat there, glancing to each student that answered and eyeing the tied up creatures every few glances. A plimpy? Was that really what it was called? What a weird name.

A plimpy? What was that? In her three terms being at Hogwarts, she still hadn't gotten over how smart everyone seemed to be. Glenn wrote down a note about this plimpy in her journal. But still - she wanted to put out her view on what it was too, "Professor, is it a fish that has had legs charmed on it?" You know, it could be that.

Kurumi's eyes had continued to scan the classroom looking for somewhere else that she could potentially move to, but all the other seats were taken. This was horrible. She knew that Jonathan didn't want anything to do with her, that he had no feelings for her anymore and could easily go about his day without thinking of her unless he saw her... She was sort of jealous of his ability to be able to do that. Ignore. She couldn't, not at all, and that is why her hand was still clutching her chest.
Barely registering when Professor Lafay began the lesson, Kurumi moved several pieces of parchment to the center of her area and picked up her quill with her free hand. Hearing the first question, she looked at the creature again and then back towards the front. "A plimpy," she replied softly, her eyes flicking towards the Slytherin next to her for a brief moment before going back to her parchment.

Nigel had no idea what a plimpy was but since everybody was saying it, it must be right. It looks like Nigel will have to do some research after class to see what a plimpy was.
But whatever back to class and Professor Lafay. "Um Professor is it a plimpy?".

"I compllleeeetellly agree. It is so vital to our everyday living, and you are right, our education is so reliant on such an important field of study. I am so glad I have found someone to partner up with that feels exacccctlyyyy the same way I do," he placed a flat palm onto his chest where his heart would be to give off the impression of how 'emotional' he found their binding 'connection'.
"Pleased to meet you... um... Vinny," there was a very HIGH chance that Elijah would have screwed up that name. Vinny would have to do. And how could this kid not know HIS name? Everyone knew Elijah! Everyone! How could you not know who he was when he was so amazingly gorgeous. Perhaps Vinny was just trying to play it cool. He didn't want to make it seem as if he had been paying too much attention to Elijah and his good looks. Yeah, that was probably what it was.
"I'm Elijah Wilde," he placed his hand in Vinny's and shook. People had told him in the past that he gave the best handshakes, but he knew that already.
"So this plumpish thing," he nodded his head in the direction of the slime blob situated on their desk, "What exactly is it? Are we going to have to feed it or something? Is it even alive?" It looked sort of alive, but he couldn't be sure, it was just sort of there. He hoped to Merlin he had remembered to pack his gloves...
As they shook hands the Ravenclaw's smile faltered a bit when he heard the nickname Vinny "Uhm... you can just call me Vickers.." he mumbled self-consciously but was soon wanting to stand up and applaud the Huffflepuff's mini speech. "Good to meet you Elijah." he said trying to return that awesome handshake. The Hufflepuff's confidence was infectious and Vickers found himself to be just a bit more confident than he's ever felt without submitting homework "Uhm... uhm.. the Plimpy..." he corrected Elijah subtlely ".... I think its still alive, otherwise its legs wouldnt have to be tied up like that to keep it from moving. " he said, being quite concerned with the creature's state. But it was clear that he was increasingly getting worried WHY the creature was even there.

Oh but now class has started. Vickers raised his hand before replying "Is it a lake creature Professor, the Plimpy?"

Jory eye the creature on the table. It looked vaguely familiar. He racked his brains trying to remember. "It's a plimpy,'' he said his hand in the air. He had come across a picture of the creature in a book he was once reading.

Hearing that all-too-familiar voice, Sierra glanced up, automatically noting two things about Professor Lafay. One, she was rubbing her temples, and two, she politely asked the class to stop talking and pay attention. Sierra's eyebrows knitted inward in slight confusion, but otherwise she put all her focus into the question.
So what is it? "It's an ingredient," she said, raising her hand. Well, it was. You pop those eyes out, and you've got yourself a fine pair of ingredients. "...courtesy of a plimpy," she added with a smirk.
Wow, professor Lafay didn't sound like her usual self! She looked really tired or frustrated. Poor thing... this should be a long lesson...
Sophie had really no idea of what that weird creature could be, so she just lsitened as her classmates kept responding. Plimpy? What a funny name! She stared down at it some more. It looked gross, but very very interesting!
That was the first thing the sixteen year old noted from his Head of House. Then her politeness....then the rubbing of the temples. Was she okay? Oh no. Was she going to faint like Professor Vindictus did? Kennedy eyed the woman and the distance between her and his desk. Would he be able to dash and catch her if she did faint? Hmm. Well, she was his Head of House and...and yeah. He wouldn't want her to fall and hit her head.
He shook his head and focused on the question instead. Naaah. Professor Lafay wouldn't faint. She was a strong woman. Yeah. After another — more analyzing — look at the creature Kennedy realized what it was. It was the same creature from John's book. He raised his hand. "It's a plimpy."

Alyssa listened as everyone gave their answers, which were basically the same as hers. While waiting for class to start she had looked up her copy of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, and leafed through the pages, until she came to a description and a picture of a creature that looked similar in kind to the one lying before her.
So since the others students were giving similar answers, Alyssa decided that she would just give her answer like everyone was doing. Raising her hand, she said,"Professor from its fish-like body and its webbed feet, this looks to be a Plimpy."

Was something wrong with professor Lafay? Not that she was the cheerful type, but she seemed a bit... ehh. And what about a very important class? She wondered what they'd be doing, but remained quiet, that until they've been asked what that thing was. Well... it certainly looked... interesting?
"Is that a plimpy, professor?" If not, Nora had no idea what else it could be. She didn't really want to think of other things.

Theodore looked from the professor to the creature again. He wasn't entirely sure. Knowing the wizarding world, it would have a really funky name. For now, to Theo it was just a fish with frogs legs. He raised his hand, "It is a mutilated fish, professor."
That's right.

She stared at the froggie-fishie thing and felt slightly dizzy. MEAN Professor. "It's a.." Blue paused as she eyed the creature. "A fish with frogs legs." Tis disgusting. WHO WOULD DO THAT TO A POOR DEFENCELESS FROOOG?
