Angel sprinkled the fertiliser on the plant and smiled, she was sure that it was feeling much better already now it had some new fertilizer to help it grow. "Thank Benny." Angel beamed.

Finishing up with his own plant, Benny heard the two Gryffindor sisters nearby trying to work with what they could since they were limited as first years. Moving closer, the third year figured he could at least offer to help them with the spellwork.

Angel, it appeared, had already gotten assistance from other another student so that left Aubrey on her own technically even as the siblings worked together. "Hey....need some help Aubrey?" he asked, his wand already back out. "Immobulus," he cast at the nearest plant not already helped.


Hehe… It looked like Benny had fallen victim to the old switcheroo. AJ tried to compose her face as to not give it away. It was fun sharing the same face sometimes. She saw that her sister went with it and talked to him as AJ. The only thing that she wouldn’t have done was to call him Benny because Aubrey NEVER called him that. He only hoped that Benjamin didn’t notice.

SPOILER!!: Adi

It was Adi's turn to laugh out aloud. "That's perfect!'' he said and wondered why he had never head anyone describe the idiotic subject as that. But before he could say anything further, Bentley spoke up. Okay, Puffers for the watering! Got it!

"Sounds good,''
Adi said with a nod as he retrieved his wand. So how about we start with this big guy here?'' He pointed to one that would definitely need immobilizing. "Immobulus!'' The plant froze. "I love sports!'' he continued as he waited for AJ to fertilize the roots. "Cricket, especially. What are you into?''


Adi and AJ made a good team, and she actually enjoyed working with him. She watched as he used wand and immobilized the plants. ”You’ve got to teach me that sometime. She couldn’t wait to be able to use her magic stick and actually know what she was doing with it.

Oh, he loved sports! That was a major plus in her book. ” I love all sports really, but baseball is my favorite!” It was then that Bentley spoke so she had to shut up and listen now.

SPOILER!!: Professor
"Gather yourselves! We're moving on!" Seren called out, indicating for them to drop what they were doing and to follow. The buckets and containers would be dealt with later. "Come come come! Keep up Petals!" she continued as she turned and motioned for them to follow.

The larger bushes and the trees in the greenhouse were still sedated as they passed by, though a few wiggled or groaned in their direction.

They came to a stop just short of a group of trees, near the back exit of the greenhouse, where a snargaluff guarded the door. Of course, this wasn't the specimen they would be examining today. No. Not today. Today, they would be looking at a fir tree, only it was barely a tree at just over a foot in height.

"Flesh eaters are amazing flora, and this specimen is no different... in fact, some of you may be fairly familiar with it already," she started her introduction, "it's a Flesh-Eating Fir... and what's remarkable about this tree, is the type of flesh it chooses to feed on. Can anyone hazard a guess as to what that might be?" Or was it less common and popular than she thought? Time would tell.

OOC: Lesson will continue in approx 24 hours. Please don't edit your answers.


They were moving on to bigger and better things. She ended all conversations and followed Bentley. She looked at the tree that the professor was talking about and was a bit let down thinking that they would be dealing with something cooler. Then, flesh eater came out of Bentley’s mouth and Aubrey was all ears once again.

Hmmm… She didn’t really know the answer, but she was going to give it a go anyways. AJ raised her hand. ”I think that they prefer human flesh, but considering you don’t want us to die anything their second choice would be fluffy little bunny rabbits.” Hey, the others liked rats, and really how different were rabbits from them?

Angel looked at the girl that had spoken to her as well but she couldn't reply now because the Professor was calling though she did give her a smile and decided she would speak to her when she got the chance.


Thankfully Aubrey was fine with his assistance, something Ben had briefly wondered about, They hadn't exactly spent that much time together, at least not as much as he and Angel. It did seem they both loved plants though. He didn't think anything on the use of Benny, the nickname easily circulated thanks to Adi. And why wouldn't one sister use it when another one did just fine.

"You're welcome," he said with a nod, putting away his wand now that they were done.


SPOILER!!: Bentley

This one didn't seem convinced. That was a shame, a real pity. There was so much promise otherwise. "Of course," she replied slowly, "I'm not going to force you to do something you're not comfortable with." Because that's how people died... at least where flesh eaters were concerned. A lot could go wrong. Confidence was key.

SPOILER!!: Ethan and Cris




As she was making her rounds, attempting to watch all the students and make sure they all lived and would make it out in one piece, she cottoned onto the tail end of a conversation between Cris and Ethan...

Uuuhhhhh....

The Hufflepuff was perhaps over-complicating things, definitely over-complicating.

"Cris is right, it's usually it's fertiliser followed by water, but these guys are hardy things and do well with looking after themselves, so it doesn't matter a great deal," she added.


But alas. Time was of the essence! So it was high time they all rallied and moved on.

"Gather yourselves! We're moving on!" Seren called out, indicating for them to drop what they were doing and to follow. The buckets and containers would be dealt with later. "Come come come! Keep up Petals!" she continued as she turned and motioned for them to follow.

The larger bushes and the trees in the greenhouse were still sedated as they passed by, though a few wiggled or groaned in their direction.

So they were moving on and Benny was quick to follow. The students momentarily leaving behind what they had previously been working on in search of bigger and better things. The flesh-eating fir that Professor Bentley was showing and speaking on didn't exactly fit the bill. The third year listened to what was being said wondering if any of the suggestions were the true response.

Other trees? Human? Rabbits? Plants?

For all he knew, any and all was the truth. The human response nearly forcing a shiver as it was certainly bigger then the other plants that posed a possible danger. But then he had another idea. "Does it go for reptiles, or stuff with scaly flesh?"
