Winter was setting in to the grounds and with it came a whole new set of responsibilities for taking care of the growing dragon known as Roro. Dragons were wild creatures and by nature liked to have free roam of wherever they were living; however, having a dragon at an educational institution meant that Professor Williamson had to take certain safety precautions when getting said dragon ready for winter.
Today, he had set up the barn for an afternoon full of work; the students didn't know it yet, but they were all going to be acting as dragonologists in training today. First things first though, they had to get here, and Willy had to finish setting up.
Sitting just outside the barn door was a horseshoe-shaped assortment of hay bales, all of which had been charmed to feel as though one was sitting on a sun-warmed rock. Inside the open barn, and just visible to those sitting on the hay bales, was a giant, emptybaby pool and something that looked like a big harness....
No professor was in sight though. While you wait for class to start, why not take a seat and at least keep your bum warm?
~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
After listening carefully to the instructions from Professor Williamson, and Roro was safely in the pool, Jory hurried over to where the buckets of baby oil where. Quickly he grabbed one and went back to the pool.
Humming Burn it down by Linkin Park, Jory slowly poured the oil onto Roro taking care to make sure he got all over his back and also keeping an eye out so he won't bang into anyone as he walked up and down.
Prue watched Roro devour the ferret quickly before jumping into the large pool in a rather excited manner, so she just caught herself from cooing at the sight of the rather happy dragon. By this point there was no doubt in her mind that Professor Williamson knew what he was doing!
Deciding to jump straight into it, Prue quickly moved over to the buckets carrying one over to the pool. Slowly lifting it up with both her hands, hoping she wouldn't spill it on herself, she began pouring the oil over RoRo's back as she hummed the melody of twinkle twinkle little star. Walking slowly back and forth she continued pouring the oil over his back watching the oil slowly drip down the sides until she realized her bucket was empty.
Not sure about RoRo's reaction now she slowly started backing away from the dragon, still humming the song as her eyes remained glued to the dragon to a point where she thought it might be a fairly safe distance. Sure she loved and adored that dragon, but she couldn't exactly predict its reactions...

He watched and waited for the dragon to take the bait, moving closer to the pool and dangling the others right over it. Willy nodded toward the volunteers but then got a somewhat confused expression on his face.
"Er, where did you guys get those bottles of baby oil? We're going to be using the buckets of oil I used to fill up the pool..." And he'd smartly only filled it up halfway so that when Roro got into the pool, oil wouldn't splash everywhere. Just somewhere.
"Anyway, once Roro gets in, we have to move fast. It will help if you hum as you dump the oil," he pointed to a few still-filled buckets, "slowly down Roro's back. I'll use my wand to massage the oil in but then once it's all in you guys should back up to your seats."

Roro quickly stomped over to the pool and, actually, right into it, stealing the ferrets out of his Daddy's hand. Omnomnomnomnomyum. He was so busy digesting his snack that he didn't even notice that he was standing in something cool and wet...
Alright bath time!
Vickers picked up a bucket and watched Roro go after the ferrets, breathing a sigh of relief when it willingly entered the baby pool. Well at least there wouldnt be that initial struggle he always seem to get with certain creatures. He didnt really know what good songs to hum so he may have been doing a bit of notes from the Hogwarts school hymn, scooping up the oil from within the pool and pouring it over Roro's back gently, right over the spot where he had the itch. Hopefully this baby oil with help sooth it right?
Just when the Ravenclaw thought it was all smooth sailing his eyes grew large at the floating bucket. Shifting around a bit to see who was levitating it he only got as far as spotting a wand when he suddenly found himself splattered with oil.
*blink**sputter*
So much for making out of this class nice and clean.

Silvia watched as the professor lured Roro into the pool. Well that seemed to go smoothly, so she quickly walked over and retrieved a bucket of baby oil. The bucket was heavy for so small a girl, but Silvia was able to manage. Lifting it from the bottom, she carefully carried it over to the pool, humming a random tune. She stood at the edge and slowly poured the oil down the dragon's back, her arms beginning to relax more as the bucket became lighter, until all of the contents had been emptied. Then quickly she took a few steps back in case Roro decided to splash around.

So action! Sarah picked up a bucket and made her way over to the pool. Humming twinkle, twinkle little star she rolled up her sleeves and went to work. The bucket was rather heavy, yet Sarah's willpower carried all the excess weight. She went to the edged and poured slowly the oil down the dragon's back. The emptying bucket soon relieved her aching arms. Soon the bucket was empty so Sarah stepped back.
OMG, WHUT. All this time, I thought class had ended days ago. XD

The dragon ate dead ferrets, as well? Eww. Creatures could be so disgusting sometimes. Or all the time, really. Sierra watched as Willy tossed a dead ferret in the direction of the pool. Moments later, the dragon took the bait, running head on right into the pool. Buckets of oil. Great. Plus Roro might toss it everywhere? Perfect, Willy. Just perfect.
Nevertheless, Sierra grabbed a hold of a bucket and headed toward the pool. If Roro splashed her, he'd be a potions ingredients before nightfall. She could promise him that one. Or, maybe not. That all depended on how well he was watched, and if Sierra could actually be bothered to get out and take her revenge.
Nevermind that. Apparently, they had to act fast. She was not humming, though. The others could do the silly stuff, and she'd just worry about dumping the oil. Bucket in hand, she stepped quickly up to the pool and turned the bucket upside down over Roro's scaly body.

"All right then! Now that we know how/why we bathe baby dragons, let's get on with it! What I'm going to do is take Roro out of his harness and lure him into the pool; then you may, IF YOU WISH, come up to the baby's backside and dump some more oil on him there. Be warned: he will splash, you will get splattered, and he'll be noisy. But if you'd like to help with the bathing, you may."
So, now to lure the dragon...
Zhenya could have laughed she was so relieved. No, she absolutely did not want to help bathe the dragon. She was slowly warming up to Roro though, seeing how he was a bit... cute. But only because he was a baby. That... was... the only reason. She was still terrified of it, though, and was so glad she didn't have to go near it and help bathe it. She watched as most of the other students went up to help, and thought it looked like they were having fun. She kept watch from a few inches behind everyone else, and was smiling. She knew the baby dragon was having fun splashing about, but she liked to appreciate the scene from afar.

Desiree listened to the Professor, they were going to wash Roro! Which sounded fun, but messy. Not that she cared.. well maybe she did, a little. She waited for a couple of other students to volunteer first. Only one actually got splashed and that was another students fault. Soo she walked up, grabbed a bucket of oil, and approached the dragon carefully.. She started slowly pouring the oil along his back, oh right she was suppose to hum!
Uhh no tune came to mind so it was just random out of tune notes. She was kind of afraid that her terrible humming would be worse than no humming at all. She eyed the little dragon cautiously as she finished pouring the oil. She liked him, but after being pulled along on that run walk, she didn't trust him.

Willy happily fed his baby the dead ferrets, quite pleased with how eager the dragon was to crunch along on their skeletons. It was a good sign for his growth and development so far, that hunger was.
"Good baaaaaby, good baby," he cooed to the dragon, tossing him another ferret. "You just keep on eatin' Roro, you just keep eatin! GOOD BOY!!!"
SPOILER!!: Kurumi

The more hands on experience Kurumi was able to get with creatures during a lesson the better really. Although, Kurumi was sort of curious as to why they had feed him a liquid mixture of chicken blood and whiskey and were now feeding him solids. Kurumi had assumed that the liquid food at the beginning of the lesson meant that Roro wasn't quite ready for solid food, but she had assumed wrong. Pleasant surprises all around!
"Professor," Kurumi asked as she picked up a bucket. See, she knew that there was no reason to have picked up a bottle, which is why she hadn't. "How old do dragons need to be before they can begin to ingest solid food?"
If there had been any doubts about solid foods and Roro before, those were gone now. Aaaaw, just look at the way he tore through that ferret! How endearing!
Bucket in hand, Kurumi collected enough baby oil into it and her arms shook a little at the weight of it as she began to slowly pour it over Roro's scaly body. Twinkle Twinkle Little Star had seemed to work during his hatching, so it was this tune that Kurumi began to hum as she proceeded to do the task she had volunteered for. Kurumi poured the baby oil over his right flank, starting at his hinds legs and slowly working her way up to his shoulder until her bucket was empty. "Professor, do we need to put some on his head?" she asked, singing the words softly in tune to Twinkle Twinkle Little Star as she did.
"Good question, Kurumi," Williamson glanced around Roro at the girl. "There's no real set time to start weaning them off, but they're sort of like humans. Once you notice that they have developed strong enough teeth, then you start introducing more and more solid food into they're diet until they're done with eating chicken blood and brandy altogether."
He shook his head at her second question, having just spotted a levitating bucket out of the corner of his eye, and tossed Roro his last ferret before angrily stomping around to the dragon's back.

A little bit of this stuff on your skin did wonders, but he couldn't imagine being splashed by a whole buttload of it would have the same effect.
He watched his Bro coerce the dragon slowly into the tub with the aid of some dead ferrets. Poor ferrets. He wondered if they knew their demise was for the sake of this UGLY creature getting a wash. Even if they did manage to successfully wash him, wasn't he just likely to get himself muddy again within seconds?!
Once Roro was in the tub, Elijah slooooowwwwlllyyy edged forward, bucket of oil at the ready to pour over the baby dragon. As he made his way toward the tub, he listened to his Bro giving tips such as humming when they dumped the oil on him? Elijah knew he had the perfect lips to hum from, but he wasn't about to start doing that when he had to avoid getting splashed as much as possible.
They were also to dump the oil slowly onto the dragon giving the little snot PLENTY of opportunity to get splash happy. Perhaps he could just levitate the bucket over? That would save him from having to get anywhere near the beast and would ensure he didn't get splashed AT ALL.
Perfect. (But not as perfect as his face).
"Wingardium Leviosa," the bucket removed itself from the ground slowly, and Elijah gradually directed it closer and closer to the tub, his tongue sticking out of his mouth in concentration. As he got nearer the tub, he rotated his wand, taking his time so as not to drop ALL of the oil onto the little pest and end up drowning it or something. That was ALL he needed to get back in his Bro's good books.
However, the weight of the oil in his bucket must have unbalanced it and all of a sudden he wasn't in control of it any longer. The bucket fell from the air and, thankfully, fell on the grass OUTSIDE the tub. Oil splattered everywhere and some even went on the dragon. Well at least he had managed to somewhat complete the task...
He looked over at Williamson to see, on a scale of 1 to ogre, how angry he was at him. Elijah made sure to flash him his best smile to help soften the blow, mouthing sorry before hand.
Ogre. Williamson was at the OGRE LEVEL with this kid. "GET BACK TO YOUR SEAT NOW before I THROW YOU THERE," the professor roared, managing to sound quite eerily and rather unintentionally like an angry mother dragon.
He pointed with his wand toward the hay bale beside Sophie, then pointed at Elijah, then back to the bale. "GO. YOU. NOW." Grrrrrrr! If that bucket had fallen ONTO the dragon... Merlin, the whole barn could have come down. Good thing it HADN'T and Roro was none the wiser....
Still. This bathing idea had perhaps been a BAD idea.
"ALL RIGHT. Enough of this," Williamson announced to the class. "Bath time's over. I'm going to show you how to massage the oil in and then... then I'm going to put Roro BACK INTO HIS STALL."
It was just too dangerous with all these kids around. Willy shooed the few remaining dragon-bathers back to their seats, muttering thank-yous as he shooed.

Whoa Nigel thought. Professor Williamson must really be angry at Elijah. He was yelling at him to get back in his seat and even pointed his wand at him. But he did not even take points from him. So Nigel was confused.
It was pretty funny watching everyone try and help the professor give Roro a bath. But it seemed like it was over and the Professor would continue the lesson himself. So Nigel just sat on his bale of hay waiting for the professor to massage the oil in. Which Nigel thought would be interesting to watch as long as he did not do it.

Alyssa blinked in surprise. Professor Williamson rarely raised his voice at any of the students. This Elijah kid really needed to be careful that he didn't end up getting detention. Alyssa sighed.
She quickly returned to where her friends were sitting and watched as the Professor demonstrated how to massage the baby oil into Roro's body.

Wow. Mama dragons had nothing on Professor Williamson! He was seriously angry! Not that Ella blamed him...This Fabio random Hufflepuff boy was acting so ridiculous! Ella was only a second year and even she knew that you shouldn't levitate a bucket above a dragon. What if Roro had got all mad and starting chomping on students?! O__o That might have put a bit of a damper on the lesson...
Aw. And then bath time was over. He had ruined it for everyone. FROWN. Stupid weirdo boy. Ella obediently went back to her seat and glared at the fun spoiler. GLARE GLARE GLARE.

Wiping his face with whichever part of his robes that wasnt splattered with oil, Vickers could only stare back slack-jawed when the DragonLord Keeper got really upset about the floating bucket. And now they were suddenly being shooed back and....
...awww Roro will be put back in his stall soon? Means class is almost over?
He stood up and quickly replaced the bucket by the side of the baby pool, then stood back for the next task, for the moment preoccupied with just trying to get the icky oil off him. Bleh.

Great. Whoever this Hufflepuff boy was, he was ruining their time with Roro! Silvia set her bucket down and made her way back to her seat. Hmph. Hopefully they would still get to work with the dragon in future lessons.

Kurumi nodded when Professor Williamson answered her question. That made sense, perfect sense really. Just like with humans there was a general age where teeth started coming in, but it really depended from baby to baby the when and how quickly. It was kind of exciting being able to see just how much Roro had grown in such a sort amount of time, but it also made the Gryffindor a little nervous.
She should probably be sure to keep an especially close eye on Walnut.
Kurumi was just about to set her bucket down when Professor Williamson EXPOLODED, causing Kurumi to jump backwards with surprise. Her eyes darted to the Hufflepuff boy who had been the cause of the man's outburst and she was tempted to pull out her wand and silence him - pure reflex left over from last term, nothing more. Instead she didn't, and returned her bucket to where she had grabbed it from and scooted back over to her seat feeling slightly deflated.
It had been amazing while it had lasted...

While his Daddy yelled at some wittle hoomans and probably scarred a few others, Roro calmly munched on his dragon treats (ferrets) and remained oblivious to the spectacle just behind him. He did thump his big dragon tail a few times, though, likely splashing his Dad as he munched away.
Once he was fully (i.e. Daddy was outta treats), Roro flopped down in the pool on his side. Fortunately, the pool had been coated with a charm to prevent it from ripping whenever his spikes touched a side. He rolled around in the oil some and even stuck his nose under the oil to see what it tasted like.
"EORKA!"
Roro sputtered at the baby oil in his mouth. He might have accidentally sprayed oil onto the hoomans in the front row, but he continued shaking his head until the oil was off him, then shook his head a second time and got the bright idea to just shake his whole body off.
And that was how the class and all the walls of the barn ended up with a light, slippery film of baby oil. Roro the dragon shook himself off so thoroughly that he was now almost completely dry, much to the chagrin of anyone within a twenty-five-foot radius of him.

Zhenya looked at Professor W in shock. Oh no, who had annoyed him? Oh.. right. She had been looking at Roro with all her concentration, every nerve ready to help her escape if she needed to, that she hadn't noticed what was going on around her until she heard the booming professor's voice. She took a few more steps backwards so that the people now moving away had room to go, and still be in front of her. Yes, the further back the better.
She was glad she was taking steps back too, otherwise the stuff Roro was splashing with his tail may have wet her. But it was rather... cute. She even let out a quiet laugh as Roro seemed to be spitting something out. She was still dry! That was good, she intended to stay dry. She looked around at the people who had been slightly splashed, wondering if they were going to start having tanties. But then... splash... in her face. She hadn't escaped the damage Roro could cause. She picked up the bottom of her jumper and wiped the oil off her face.

Merlin's beard. One second, Willy is chastising students who act like babies, and the next, he turns around and his REAL baby well real to him, anyway has gone off the chain. He only discovered this when he was hit with a faceful of baby oil.
"RORORORORORORO," he admonished, now sounding like woofing dog, but a happy one at that, "did you just shake your tailspikes, mister? You splashed the WHOLE CLASS, you bad dragon!" He laughed, though, even as he was wiping his face on his shirt. Clearly there was NOTHING the dragon could do to upset his loving handler parent. The professor shook his head, grinning, and raised his wand to show the kids a simple spell to remove the oil. "Silly silly drag----"
And then Williamson froze. Mid-sentence, mid-spell, his body just went into a stone-like state and he dropped face forward onto the hard, solid floor of the barn, and remained immobile there without another word.

Having returned to her seat in the front row, Kurumi was one of the oh-so-lucky students to get splashed with baby oil when Roro decided to sort of play in his baby oil bath. Kurumi tried to shake some of the oil off while Professor Williamson went all googly eyed over his baby dragon not that she blamed him but suddenly looked up when he stopped midsentence.
"Professor?" she asked, slowly rising from her seat. Had he just seen a ghost? Wait, no, that expression didn't work at Hogwarts since ghosts were always floating around. But then he feel forward....with a THUD...against the floor.
o_________________O
Kurumi was on her feet now, debating where to place her attention first: professor or dragon although it was rather obvious that it should be dragon... Kurumi hurried over to the supply of dead ferrets, grabbing one of them without flinching, surprisingly, and sort of waved it in Roro's direction. "Someone...go get the Healer...and maybe the Headmaster..." she said in a sort of baby-talk like voice while she continued to wave the ferret. "And hurry!"
Kurumi's tone was a forced calm and there was clear panic in her voice and her body was obviously shaking as well, but they had JUST had several lessons and discussions about what NOT to do in the presence of a dangerous creature. So...first student that screamed was probably going to have a Silencing Charm sent their way so quickly they wouldn't even be able to say dragon.
"Someone else....slowly check on Professor Williamson..." As in...make sure he was still breathing, please.

Blaaargh. Good thing Sophie decided to remain seated. That bathe-the-dragon thing was turning out to be a mess! Eek!
She watched everything from a distance, but end up having some baby oil splashed at her anyway. Merlin, see how dangerous that dragon could be?? He was splashing baby oil EVERYWHERE! Imagine what he could do with... well, anything else!
Good. Professor Williamson was calling the bath thing off. That was a good idea indeed. Sophie sighed in relief as the students started moving around, but... O_______________O had professor Williamson just... justjustjust... fainted or something?? Were they all by themselves - they were many, but still only students! - with a DRAGON?!?! A dragon who was... without the harness... and was... FREE???
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
Of course, Sophie didn't really scream. That would have freaked out the dragon and her classmates and would make things even worse, but she DID feel like screaming her head off. That was SCARY!!
She jumped up at once and looked around. WHAT TO DO???? Sophie heard the Gryffindor Prefect giving out instructions but she just stood there, feeling completely lost and IN DANGER! Good thing there were older students there... she felt a bit safer, even though it was still a... you know, pretty dangerous situation.
Check on professor Williamson? Sophie could do that, but he was SO CLOSE to the dragon! Merliiiiinnnn!!!! She could also run to go get the healer or the headmaster, but she knew that there were other students that were faster than her...
SHE WAS USELESS NOW!!! That was why she decided to just stand back, out of everyone's way. She couldn't do anything useful, but at least she wasn't going to do anything to make the whole thing even worse!

Zhenya looked around, totally confused. WHAT WAS HAPPENING AT HOGWARTS??
She inched closer and closer to Professor W. She saw Sophie hesitating, and was doing the same thing too. What if Roro wanted to be all protective and fight them all? What if Roro thought a student had done this? But seriously What was happening?? She looked around again, trying to locate someone with a wand pointed out or something, anything that might explain all the people who had looked the same.

There had been nothing that could have convinced Stella to volunteer to help bathe Roro. Even if the baby dragon had been perfectly adorable during their walk, she was still a bit wary of him, as well as wary of exactly how devoted Professor Wiliamson had seemed to be toward the creature. She didn't want to accidentally do anything wrong, and she'd found herself stepping back toward one of the further hay bales as others had stepped forward to help the professor. The dead ferrets only made her that much more apt to try and stay clear, too. She honestly could barely even watch Lyra eat her cat food. Nuage was a bit different, but then she didn't have much choice there. The pygmy puff ate her own food half the time, after all.
She'd watched as the demonstration of how to massage the baby oil in went on, however, and the subsequent explosion related to a Hufflepuff she couldn't quite say she remembered seeing before. At least she would be able to say she knew the lesson, although she'd pulled her knees upward to bury her face in them as the dragon had started shaking the oil all over the place. A little oil wouldn't hurt her hair, but she didn't want it in her eyes or mouth. Her head had come up as she'd faintly heard Kurumi react to something with the professor, and she uncurled fully to walk forward as the request had been made. "I... I can go get them," she said, eyeing the ferret being waved around for a moment before turning to start hurrying back to the castle. Remembering the oddness last term when she'd adopted Nuage, and wondering if that was related.

...and in likely a slow motion movie, Erin saw every bit of Professor Williamson's fall onto the ground. Face down. Why did it have to be his FACE?
Professor Williamson had frozen out too? Erin was now totally convinced that there was something going on in Hogwarts. She just hoped her parents wouldn't know anything about it or she might just end up leaving school halfway through the term again, just like what happened last year.
Another problem, the dragon was there, free with no adult supervision. And as she heard the Gryffindor prefect Kurumi giving out instructions on what to do, Erin almost headed out from the barn (not to call onto someone) but to just like, RUN AWAY.
