Oh yeah.
"Aren't we doing stuff now?" Weren't they? Shaw was almost sure they were. Almost. "You probably know best. Let's get into groups. Yall like groups? Brilliant stuff comes out of groups."
"So let's you yellow wearing people work together. Then the ones wearing red work together. Blues with blues and greens with greens. If you don't know what I'm on about you can get in that there last group that I labeled," Shaw had to turn and see what he'd labeled it as," Err Everyone else?. Or work alone if you're into that."

Red people: shield/armor/hard hat
Blue people: ear muffs/watch/sunglasses/mask
Green people: mighty hammer/weapon/first aid kit
Yellow people: pillow/cushion/nice chair
Everyone else?: water bottle/cup/flute/poodle (purple)/lint roller

Shaw stared at the board, then back to the class.
"Right there. Your job is to come up with them there fancy words, Latin words, that you can use to change your stuff into well....other stuff. No promises they'll work, but understanding the ROOT before you grow flowers is always best, I say. Same for transfiguration. So go on now. Use your text books. Find them fancy words. Shaw will try out the ones I think will work best at the end."
Okay? Shaw looked confused and ate another bite of cup.
Sierra narrowed her eyes in a 'you have got to be kidding me' sort of way.
What was the headmaster thinking when he hired this guy!? Sure, he was sort amusing she had to admit, but did he
really just ask if they were supposed to be doing something!? Or, doing
stuff, she thought she heard. She halfway listened to the directions, making note that she was supposed to go find the
green group, aka the Slytherins, and then come up with some Latin words for the list Shaw had made on the board.
Hmm...
So that would be a mighty hammer, weapon, and first aid kit for her.
A first aid kit?! Wouldn't that involve helping someone?! That was sort of a Gryffindor or Puffer thing to have listed there, but she made a mental note of it anyway before standing from her seat and glancing around for the snakes.

"I'm fine." she said suddenly, blinking after a moment of realizing that she hadn't answered him yet. Turning her attention back to him, she smiled. "Perhaps the lack of following directions?" Or just misunderstanding, though it was way more fun to blame them on something they lacked instead of just labeling it as a 'misunderstanding'.
"The Slytherins are sitting too far away..." Like, two tables over. That was way too far from Josh.
"Ugh," Sierra mumbled, as she was met with a sea of yellow, red, and blue as soon as she stood up. Had she really managed to sit as far away from her housemates as humanly possible?! She edged past a group of Ravenclaws and nearly shoved her way through a group of Gryffindors before finally spotting Evelyn halfway across the room. Her friend looked just as amused with the lesson as she did.
She winced as Patroclus Hudson yelled out to Shaw.
A dummy to practice spells on, hmm? She smirked as she passed by a group of Puffers. Well, there's a whole table full of dummies right there, Patroclus Hudson...
"Evelyn," she said, sliding into an empty seat near her friend. She gave Josh a nod in greeting before dropping her bookbag to the floor.
"Got anything written down so far?" In other words, can I copy your list?!
