Zombie Apocalypse Team Leader ★ ★ in a crown of pepperoni and artisan cheese There was absolutely no way Olivia would ever purposely skip a Defense lesson (if it could be helped). Nope. Never. So, here she was... with bells and a genuine smile on. Had Professor Hirsch missed her? Had he noticed she'd been gone?
Despite being absent, the Gryffindor had kept up with her DADA coursework, utterly determined to not have fallen behind when she did eventually make her return. Now... it was time to see if she'd been successful. It would be a bit of a challenge, considering the location was back to these dreary, enclosed classrooms. Perhaps Liv could talk Hirsch into some outdoor lessons sometime. Personally, she'd found a mark improvement in her own casting with the fresh air and change of scenery. Nothing but the sun and clouds above her...
Oh... Music boxes.
Taking more time than was necessary in selecting one, the blonde ultimately settled on an old fashioned one; made of amber and hardwood. It reminded her of a music box she'd seen on the telly once, belonging to Catherine the Great; even though that had been fictional? It was for entertainment purposes, so... Mythical in it's existence.... It was still very striking and beautiful, however, even if a bit cheaply made. But then again, why would Professor Hirsch give them anything valuable to practice magic on? It wouldn't have made much sense.
Hmmm.
The classroom was already filling up quickly, and Liv found herself a little... er, unsure... about where to sit and who to sit near. It wasn't like History of Magic, where she'd been one of the first to arrive... Uh... Near the middle... Off to the side. No need to attract too much attention to herself. "Professor."
Anyway, she wanted to inspect her music box a bit more. That didn't require an audience or some dramatic performance. Not yet, at least.
