How are you?" she said with a grin and a somewhat graceful (as graceful as a professional gravity tester could be) curtsy. Or should she say King Wayland? Hehe. "I like your throne."
The caffeine was really getting to her. Tristan grinned at the first student to arrive, nodding his head, "Hello, Olivia! Very well and you?" He chuckled as she curtsied at her. Not exactly what he was going for with his throne, but he would take it. "Thank you very much! I made it myself." He said with a grin. Quote:

Yep. "Good day, Dora. Hogwarts is my home, so I find it far more than alright." Tristan said with a wink and a smile. This one seemed a bit nervous to talk to him and went as far away from him as she could...interesting. Quote:

She picked a random spot and sat down comfortably, turning slightly to give Olivia a bright smile and wave. "Hey, you." Tristan smiled and nodded, "Hello, Etta. Doing very well. Hope you are well....as well." He said with a chuckle, watching as she moved to sit next to Olivia. They still had a bit before class started so hopefully more students would arrive shortly. Quote:

He made a wide loop to slow his velocity down and hopped off his board just as he was entering the pasteur "Hey there Professor Wayland!" he greeted the man with that trademarked Tenaciusly bright smile. Tristan was surprised that not only was a prefect riding around on some kind of hover board type thing, he also couldn't believe that he brought it to class with him. "Morning, Tenacious. If you would please deposit that contraption by the barn, and please don't bring it to this class anymore. It may scare the creatures, and we wouldn't want to be stampeded by Abraxans now would we?" He said with a wink, "You can pick it up after class is over." He smiled and awaited the next student. Quote:

It is quite comfy." He said with a grin as the young girl made her way to take a seat. So many compliments on his throne...he may just have to do something different with it next term...maybe a lounge chair....Who knows! Quote:
Originally Posted by Govoni "Professor, you seem well this morning!" Her greeting was cheerful and bright. And also, aww. LOOKIT the adorable Puffer First Year (Elora). "Hello." Olivia went out of her way to greet the small girl. Someone was in a very good mood this morning!
Hopefully his lesson would continue that good mood. "Always am, Olivia! You seem to be very chipper today as well!" He said with a smile and watched as the older girl sat with Elora, the first year. It was so nice to see older students helping out younger students. Quote:
Originally Posted by DuckyLinJi Once he reached the place, the Ravenclaw raised an eyebrow the moment he stood in front of the new Professor sitting on a throne of hay. Really? Trying his best not to roll his eyes, the seventh year gave a nod at him instead. "Good day, Sir" he greeted before turning around to see where he could sit.
Spotting Dora at the faaaaaaar back, Mason walked towards her and sat down next to her. "Can you believe that throne" he whispered, low enough so that only Dora could hear and rolled his eyes. Though some people didn't seem to think the throne was funny. He really didn't care. Tristan made it so he wouldn't have to stand uncomfortably waiting for all the students to arrive. Mason didn't realize that the look he was trying not to make was noticed, but that was alright.
"Good day to you, Mason." He said with a small smile. Watching as the boy whispered something to Dora and rolled his eyes. He just ignored it. He was probably just trying to impress the girl anyway. Quote:

Maybe she could sneak over and visit her squirrel again afterward, or even sneak him out to watch the lesson. It was something she’d figure out after she got there, and she’d given the professor on his hay throne a big grin. “G’morning Professor Wayland! Is that a phoenix on your mug?” "Morning, Stasya! It is indeed!" Tristan said with a smile. The young girl was in the barn very often checking in on her Red Squirrel, which made him happy to know that she took such good care of him. She would be of great help in the future. Quote:

Though he had said that at their first few classes as well. Would he continue saying that all term? Quote:
Originally Posted by Sonea “Hello professor!” She greeted with a big grin. “Nice throne, is it comfortable?” She still grinned while looking slightly jealous because she too wanted to sit on a throne like that and yes, it was still cool if a third year was sitting on a throne! If a adult could do it than she could do the same. Hmpf! "Hello, Leesha!" Tristan wiggled around in his throne of hay a little, "It could be more comfortable, but it is hay after all. A bit itchy." He said with a wink and a smile. Hay was significantly itchy...he would have to figure out a spell to make it not itchy...or you know...use something that wasn't itchy. Quote:
Originally Posted by Callie "Good morning, Professor Wayland." She gave him a mock curtsy, because anyone sitting on a throne must be royalty. "Is this where you knight people?" Because that was something royalty also did. Knight people. Will you knight her Professor? Tristan chuckled. His second curtsy of the day. "Morning, Hadley! If I were a King, certainly, but I am not, therefore I shan't." He said with a grin. Though he kinda wished had a sword now.... Quote:
Originally Posted by Daydreamer11 "Hello professor", Shay said cheerfully. She was rather excited to be working with the animals today. She was also very curious as to which animal that would be. Finding the nearest empty hay bale, she sat down and began to prepare for the lesson. "Hello, Shay! Hope you're well." He said with a smile. So many students were showing up he was starting to get that little nervous flutter. But he knew it would be alright. Quote:
Originally Posted by Tegz Oh and the new professor on his piled up bales, which Char failed to recognize as a throne. He got a wave too though. "Hi professor!"
Now what would they be learning today? Something fun, probably! It was always fun! Except when there was too much homework.. but she would remain hopeful and positive about that too.
"Hello, Charlotte...or would you rather Char? Whatever you prefer really." He said with a smile. Tristan only wanted his students to be happy so he would call them by any name they wanted him to. Quote:
Originally Posted by ChanceCoeur So heading outside, Noelle giggled when she saw the professor's throne. Nice touch. " 'Morning Professor... er... King Wayland. " she said, giving the professor a little bow just because she was in a good mood this morning, and because he was seated on a throne after all. (Certain potions were clearly working to her advantage). This greeting made Tristan chuckle the most. "Good morning, Noelle. Professor will do just fine, thank you." He said with a grin.
He went to take a sip of his tea and chuckled, shaking his had, then took a big swallow. All this talking...he was going to need some water for sure. Quote:
Originally Posted by DaniDiNardo "Hello Professor." Jessa greeted, making her way across the semi-circle of hay.
"If I choose this bale right here, will you make it into a throne as well? I've got no plans at usurping." She simply loved the design and couldn't help think of the added back support as opposed to sitting on that hay that would inevitably see her slouching.
"This one too, in case Derf wants a throne?" "Hello, Jessa!" He said with a smile and watched as she picked a bale of hay. Then the girl asked if he could make two more thrones, promising not to usurp. He smiled, "Sorry, Jessa. I only had enough extra to make this one." He said with a wink. Quote:
Originally Posted by sweetpinkpixie "HI PROFES-S-SSOR WAYLAND!" he greeted eagerly, throne noticed but the second year's blue eyes were fixated on the man's mug. "I-Is that a thunderbird?" he inquired, peeeeeeeeering closer to it. "NO NO NO WAIT! A PHOENIX!!" Pause. "Dowegettohandlephoenixes-s-stoday?!"
Please please please please please?? Tristan couldn't help but chuckle at Derf's excitement. Though he was a handful, he was a good kid. "Hello, Derfael. Yes it is a Phoenix on my mug, and you will just have to wait and see what we are doing today." He said with a wink. He didn't want to ruin the surprise. Quote:
Originally Posted by PhoenixRising Skylar made her way down to the empty pasture beside the barn, eager for care of magical creatures, which was somewhat because Professor Wayland was definitely easy on the eyes. She smiled when she took note of him sitting on a mock throne made out hay bales. Clever, this one was, Sky decided. "Morning Professor," the fourth year smiled as she glanced around for an empty hay bale to sit on, even though she doubted they would be sitting for long. "Morning, Skylar." Tristan said with a smile and a nod. Man, his class was really filling up..he might have to.....dethrone himself. The thought made him kind of sad, but he would if he had to.
Though he hoped he wouldn't... Quote:

No matter how he was feeling, the opportunity to hang out with the animals always seemed to cheer him up. Olly liked the set up for this class. The hay bales for them to sit on. Were they going to be working with horses maybe? Whatever it was he was sure it would be fun. "Good morning professor," he greeted before heading to find a seat. He selected an empty spot next to Char, hoping she wouldn't mind. "Hey Char," he said with a smile. "Morning, Oliver," he said with a smile and a nod, watching as the young man went and sat next to Charlotte. So many wonderful students in his class today! His nerves were starting to turn to excitement now! Quote:
Originally Posted by RandomRaven With a flask of hot chocolate on her hand, Ava walked to the barn and found the Professor was sitting on a hay... throne. "Good morning, Professor. Your throne looks cosy, by the way." The Gryffindor commented. She joined Noelle and Shay who was already there. Hello hello...
Tristan smiled, and nodded, "Morning, Ava. It is pretty comfy, thank you." He grinned and watched the girl take a seat next to Noelle and Shay. Quote:
Originally Posted by thekraken Feeling the weight of fifth year already, Althea had literally dragged herself to class, yawning along the way. She opted for something extremely casual that reflected the weather - a pair of leggings and an over-sized jumper - and made sure to throw her hair up into ponytail. Care of Magical Creatures wasn't exactly her favorite class, but she didn't dislike it either.
She found the hay bales a bit much, but it was too much effort to form any sort of concrete opinion about them. Offering the professor a smile and a wave, she made her way towards one of the hay bales off to the side (away from people) and sat down. Her fatigue had really gotten the best of her, because if she was more alert she would've definitely noticed her friends (and other acquaintances that she tolerated in an attempt to keep up appearances) and greeted them properly. But, unfortunately, she was too tired to care. A quiet...sleepy one. He understood. It was early.
Hopefully the lesson would perk her up. He smiled and nodded at her anyway. Quote:
Originally Posted by Goblinfrog Kitty made her way over to the care of magical creatures class, humming casually to herself in a peaceful manner. She waved at her friends and moved to sit. "Good morning professor. I like your throne." "Morning, Kitty! Thank you!" He said with a grin. Seemed most people liked his throne. He was definitely going to have to do something different next time though. Quote:
Originally Posted by Shanners Rooney was just extremely excited to have some of his favourite subjects taken over by new people this year. He loved to experience different teaching methods and how it spurred him to widen his knowledge about things in so many different ways. He gave a wide smile and a wave to Professor Wayland before choosing to sit directly beside Olivia. Roo found it funny that the Professor was sat on a makeshift throne and it tickled every part of his love of the spotlight. He reached gently for the nearest of Olivia's hands, giving it a squeeze and her a gentle smile. It took Tristan's everything not to snort at Rooney's corny line. Though he was pretty sure the Head Boy meant it. He heard about their great romance from the other professor's. He Smiled and waved back, giving the young man a thumbs up. Way to keep the romance alive! Quote:
Originally Posted by Buggy-Boo Ugh, but none the less here she went. Sully noticed hay bales laid out for them to sit on.... she was probably to short to get on the big ones... so instead she just sat on the ground in front of one. Looking around to see if she recognized anyone here. Smiling at the teacher in case they made eye contact. Another quiet one, which again was ok, but he did make sure to greet everyone as the entered it was only polite to give him the same courtesy. He smiled and nodded, nonetheless. Quote:
Originally Posted by Awarlesta Black Teddy took a seat near the professor, picking up the scent of the chai emitting from his mug. Suddenly, Teddy felt unbearably homesick. This one didn't even attempt a smile, and was staring at his mug sadly. This caused Tristan to raise his right eyebrow at the young woman, as he took a sip of his tea. He really needed to finish it before class started. Quote:
Originally Posted by emjay "Good morning, Professor," he greeted the man with a grin as he passed, then looked for an empty hay bale to sit. There were a ton of people he knew there already, so they all got waves, hi's, and cheery smiles as he walked through the class area. But he ultimately chose a spot by Charlotte and Oliver. Finally, someone who was talking to him! "Morning, Henry!" Tristan gave the boy a smile and a wave, watching as he took a seat next to Charlotte and Oliver. Quote:
Originally Posted by Davvy_Wavvy After greeting the professor Bentley scanned the gathering of students. It didn't take him long to spot Thea who he walked right over to. Tristan greeted Bentley with a smile and a nod and watched as he sat next to Thea, the very sleepy one. Hopefully he could rouse the girl. Sleeping in this class could be...dangerous. Quote:
Originally Posted by TakemetotheBurrow "Hello Professor Wayland." The fourteen year old curtsied as always and looked around. Still plenty of places to sit. Picking one towards the far end of the semi circle, she headed towards it, waving at friends and acquaintances as she went. "Morning, Junia!" Tristan said with a grin as the young girl went and sat with her friends. He really hoped all the students enjoyed this lesson. From what he had heard, it had been a very long time since this particular creature had been used in a lesson. Quote:
Originally Posted by Felixir "G'morning professor," Abey said as he sidled over to join the gathering crowd and took a seat on a bale of hay. "Morning, Abey!" He called out to the young man who seemed to be freezing...even though the weather was absolutely perfect outside. Odd. Hopefully, he didn't get too warm. Quote:
Originally Posted by Anna Banana Brent headed out to the pastures, ready to take one of the first Care of Magical Creatures lessons of the school year. This class was always interesting. There really wasn't a whole lot of discussion, and it was pretty hands-on, so he was cool with it. Reaching the classroom area, Brent grinned at the professor. "Hello, Professor," he said. He wasn't sure if the professor remembered his name or not, but none of the other kids had said their names, so Brent didn't either. Tristan had just taken a rather large gulp of his tea when the young man had greeted him, so he quickly swallowed, coughing a little. "Morning, Brent." He said with a smile. Quote:
Originally Posted by Ama "Hey Professor," he greeted quickly and raised a hand as if he was requesting a high five but he did not stop, he did not slow down. Instead, Declan continued to walk quickly towards the hay bales. He moved behind Althea and Bentley and with one long gangly leg, he stuck it between the two. "Morning, Declan!" He said and watched as the young man wedged himself between Thea and Bentley. That was a big brother move if he ever saw one. Way to be a good, protective brother! We approve! Quote:
Originally Posted by hermygirl Sam always looked forward to getting outside, and today was no exception. With the nice weather, she'd had a comfortable amble down from the castle, although her relaxed smile soon took a bemused turn when she saw the hay bale throne the Professor was sitting on. "Looks comfy, Sir," she commented, as she ventured past it towards the much less impressive student versions. "That it is Sam, though slightly itchy." Tristan said with a chuckle and watched as she took a seat. He wasn't expecting to many more students to show up. He was going to have to start class soon. Quote:
Originally Posted by Cassirin Care of Magical Creatures was an interesting subject, but more, it was a means to an end. Katy didn't mind it, except when professors spent a bit too much time on boring creatures and not enough time on truly interesting ones. It made sense, she supposed, since she wasn't likely to run into cool dangerous creatures in the wild... but she waslikely to find flobberworms in her garden. Disappointing life, sometimes. This one just right out didn't even acknowledge him. Alright then, Katy. He smiled and nodded at her anyway. Hopefully she would participate in the class. Quote:
Originally Posted by Bazinga Honestly how many creatures pooped right where he was walking. Even if it wasn't visible there was probably residue that was now on his shoe. As he made his way towards the other students the professor's thrown didn't go unnoticed. Excuse me Professor you are in my seat was what he wanted to say, but it could wait. One day when he was Lord Blaze he'd have his thrown and it would be bigger than that one.
Giving a nod to the professor he headed for an empty seat. At least he got some kind of acknowledgment from Edward. He nodded back to the young man, with a smile on his face. Quote:
Originally Posted by Holmesian Feline “Good morning Professor,” Cass greeted the man as she approached his throne. From there, she moved to take a seat of her own from among available spots on other hay bales. There was no readily available clue or notice as to what the topic of the day was so the girl settled for trying to keep her curiosity at bay. They’d find out soon enough, she was sure of that. "Morning, Cassandra." He said, then looked down at his watch. He noticed a couple more stragglers heading this way. They had a couple minutes before he was going to start. Quote:
Originally Posted by Yourenodaisy That didn't stop her from taking it though. Nope, it would give her things to pester Emmaleigh about. So she went to class with a smile on her face and greeted the professor with a "Hello" before surveying those already there.
"Hello, Samantha." He said with a small nod, noting the sadness on the girls face. He hoped she was ok. Quote:
Originally Posted by Schroyers He spotted the seat Katy had saved for him and sat on the hay. Itchy substance that it was.. "Did I miss anything interesting? Any idea what we're studying?" They were in the barn so he didn't think anything too incredible. Unless the Professor was full of surprises. No greeting and immediately starts talking about the class to other students like he had missed something. Class hadn't even started yet. He smiled at Oliver, shaking his head. Quote:
Originally Posted by NifflerFan "Hi Professor," She smiled as she greeted the professor, then gave Stasya and Abey a wave. Spotting Derf sitting in the front, she bounced over to him and plopped down beside him. "Hey Derf! Has he said what we're studying today?" "Hello, Emmeline. You are just in time." He said with a grin and a wink. As the last student took her seat, Tristan stood up. It was time to start the lesson! With a flick of his wand, his hay throne dismantled and neatly stacked itself against the outside of the barn wall.
"Good morning, and welcome to today's Care of Magical Creatures lesson!" He paused, and took a breath. "There are many magical creatures that deal with fire in their own unique ways. For example, dragons breathe fire, Ashwinders are born from fire, Fire Crabs shoot flames from their shells." He paused, "But today we aren't going to be working with any of those. Today we will be working with an animal far more majestic, and uses fire in a more unique way." With that, he paused again and whistled a very lovely tune. A few moments later, a beautiful Phoenix flew over the roof of the barn, and soon landed on the professor's outstretched arm. The bird then nudged his cheek in a demanding way. Smiling, Tristan gave him a treat.
"This is my Phoenix, Ash. I have had him for quiet some time, and if you have ever come to visit me at my hut or the barn I am sure you have already seen him flying around." He smiled, and rubbed the sweet bird on the neck. "Now that we have him here, maybe you can answer me this question. What magical abilities do Phoenixes posses?" After he asked the question, Ash started to sing one of his beautiful melodies. It immediately calmed Tristan down. Apparently, he was more nervous than he realized. OOC: Thanks for coming yall! Class has officially started so please keep the chatter to a minimum, if you haven't posted your charrie in here and want to, please feel free to jump right in and pretend as though they've been here the entire time. Please remember that if you show up late there will be IC consequences.
I will be moving the class along again in roughly 22-24 hours.
