His mind was abuzz with different ideas of what this class could be about.. until he stepped into the room.
Green eyes took in all the supplies that were laid out. They were making jewelry? Ok.. not really what he was expecting..
He thought for a moment of making a run for the door, but as the woman at the front caught his eye, he smiled warmly.. his smile growing as she spoke. "Bonjour, Madame," he answered back in one of the few languages he was fluent. And then he made his way to find a seat. Of course, he noticed he was the only boy there.. apparently the others already knew it was about jewelry.. And then he spotted Minnie, he gave her a smile and took a seat next to her.

Maybe eating breakfast before class would do finely too, but now he's stuck thinking about eating because he didn't have breakfast. Oh well.
He couldn't take the fruit or vegetables anyway, it seems to be guarded by a nice looking lady. Oh well, indeed. We probably aren't allow to eat during a seminar anyway. "Guten tag, Mamsell," he greeted politely to her, in the little German he knows. "Mien name ist Mick DeLarge." (Good day, misses, my name is Mick DeLarge.) He stopped to look over the room for a nice spot and wouldn't he know it, Ethan and Minnie are here too. They probably want to sit with just themselves. Mick decidely took the seat at the table next to theirs, he didn't want to impose on them.
Minerva's smile grew when she saw Ethan walk in the room. What a great surprise that he was going to be in the seminar today. This made being here even better. She watched as he greeted the teacher for the day and then headed her way. He was still giving her butterflies every time he came near her.
"Well hello Ethan, this is a nice surprise." Any class she got to sit next to him was a great class in her book.
Then she saw another familiar face and she nudged Ethan to show him he wasn't he only boy anymore and that his friend just walked in the room.
"Hey Mick, Laura coming to this seminar?" She smiled at the boy still happy about how he was at the last match. He was one interesting boy and she was glad she got to become friends with him.

"Hello everyone I know by now you must be wondering what we will be doing - and the answer is simple" she smiled as she picked up a display of different jewelry. Walking around she placed examples at the different tables. "We are going to be making jewelry out of fresh and real fruit and vegetables...if you do get hungry i ask you not try and eat these as some of them have muggle resin on them and thats not edible but feel free to have some of the fruits in the cupboard." She smiled.
Waving her wand the displays showed up at each table.
Moving and sitting on the top of the desk she just smiled to everyone before asking a blanket question to everyone in the room. "Alright everyone I have a few questions before we start, first off raise your hands if you want to learn how to make your own jewelry?" She asked with a warm smile. "Secondly can anyone guess what some of the spells we might use to make the jewelry?" she asked with a soft smile. Maybe people would have fun with this no?
ooc:
First Display: Kiwi Earings
Second Display: Multiple Necklaces & Rings (ect)
Third Display: Plum Earings
If you haven't arrived yet, yes its starting but please join in.

Minerva listened to the teacher start the lesson, when she talked about making jewelry, Minerva couldn't help but smile a bit. This would be fun, it was something different and something that wasn't on exams. A nice little break. She raised her hand when asked if she wanted to know more about making jewelry. Minerva was never one not to want to learn more things, so something like this she would jump on to learn. Then she looked around when asked about spells, putting her hand up to answer;
"Would you use a sticking spell to get the fruit to stick to the chain or a necklace or the back of an ear ring?" She really wasn't sure of most of the spells, but figured that one would do something.
