Oh Merlin. Holding a third lesson was a bad, bad idea.

Vanora stared and glared, glared and stared at the few who guessed that, and just to get her point across, she glared!stared some more! No dead creatures in her lessons. She would save that stuff for Lafay. "No dead creatures." And since it seemed like everyone who wanted to answer did just that, plus the fact that she didn't want to hear anymore dead creatures answer, she continued. "Good guesses, though." Expect the dead creature ones. "But there actually is something inside of the bins." For those who said nothing. Anyway.. "Most of your guesses were fairly close, but Cassia and Genevieve were spot on. We're not going to be examining what's inside, however, but we will be working with it, and you'll all be making your own one of these.."

Pausing for just a moment, to build up the suspense, Vanora reached into her pocket and pulled out her very own drawstring bag. She placed it on the middle of the long table for everyone to see.. just in case they couldn't before. "I figured we would do something easy and fun for the last lesson, after everything that had happened, plus, these little bags sure do come in handy." Maybe if she made a bag big enough, she could put all her creatures inside of it and protect them FOREVER!!!

Or.. maybe not.

"The Mokeskin in your bins is already processed and charmed," and colored, so that no one complained about having a color they didn't like, "so once you open the bin and touch the skin, it will know who its owner is. And it'll work accordingly. So, before we begin, and so we can get a little insight on how these bags work exactly; what is a moke?"

Ella was actually feeling a bit more cheerful after witnessing Professor Newlin glare at the students who suggested there might be dead creatures inside the bins. First off, ICK. Keeping dead creatures in a bin just seemed so....so....wrong. Squirm. Secondly, given all the weird and horrible things that had happened to the creatures recently the suggestion seemed a bit insensitive to Ella. The glaring, though? This made Ella smile a little to herself. She felt like glaring too, Professor Newlin. You go, girl.

Ohhhh! Mokeskin bags? BEAM. That was quite a nice idea. Not as fun as working with a live creature but the third year couldn't exactly blame the Professor for not wanting to put any other creatures in danger. "Professor, a mokeskin bag or erm...pouch carries items which only the owner of the pouch can get out! It's also quite larger than it appears on the outside. I mean....it can carry more items than one might think. Oh and a moke is...a lizard thing-y that can shrink!" Yup. And that's all.
