"Wear the slytherin colors proudly." he told him and nodded. Wait should he introduce himself? "I'm Colt." "As if they were my own, thanks," he beamed, switching his red and gold tie for the silver and green. Fiddling with it as he put it on, which was kinda difficult without a mirror, he glanced up momentarily as the boy introduced himself. "I'm Lancelot," he introduced in return just in time really for the lesson to begin. SPOILER!!: Professor Quote:

Walking back to the front of the classroom and leaning against her desk, she tugged at the tip of blue and bronze tie that was around her neck. As a former Gryffindor she had clearly switched ties with someone. The students wouldn't know that. "First, I want to welcome new and returning students to Charms Class. I, myself, am new to teaching at Hogwarts, but not the castle itself." Flicking her wand at the blackboard her name was written in neat writing. "I am Professor Baxter and as you may have all guessed, I will be teaching you Charms." How exciting was that! "I would like to thank all of the students who followed directions and participated in the activity. It was nothing to be alarmed about." She smiled reassuringly and kindly at those she noticed flip about the rules and at those who did great and followed through. "A brief advice, if you'd like to earn full credit in my class read the rules and follow them appropriately." They were simple enough, yeah? They were early childhood level. She thought so, and she wanted them to all earn full credit. And now they couldn't say, 'but you didn't tell us thaaat!' because she just did.
With another smile, Astrid pushed off her desk and wandered toward the front desks, pausing. "To get this lesson started, I would like you to pull out a piece of parchment and write a paragraph on what you know about charms and what charms you would like to learn about. It's a way for me to get to know you." Because Merlin knew just how much office time she had (she would make as time as she could) but she was sure they had other lesson things that needed their attention as well. This was the best way to get to know them and to warm up their brains and get working. "You have ten minutes." And go! Forgetting about really fixing his new tie, he slid into the nearest empty seat and snagged a parchment from his bag, along with the appropriate necessities to write with. This apparently is what he got for not being early to the lesson. Already behind.
Scribbling hastily on the parchment in front of him, he half listened to what the professor was saying, though paused at the mention of... more writing. Well gosh dangit, why couldn't he have sat closer to Marsha? The thought made him look around wildly for her. All. The. Way. Over. There.
...
No problem. Nooooope. He got this. Just... write it slowly. Quote:
