"Do phoenix have a mating dance?" he began. Since most fowl DID have that sort of thing to attract a mate and such. Mate...Abey was his mate. Maybe he should come up with a dance on top of a secret handshake with Abey? "I mean...how are phoenix created in the first place? Special ashes needed to hatch the first ever phoenix? When was that? HOW did the first phoenix come to be?" Especially considering they were rather solitary creatures, becoming loyal to one and only one witch or wizard in cases of domestication and all.

Ah, curious Derfael...Tristan listened as the young boy asked about five different questions. Grinning he replied, "Well, seeing as Phoenixes regenerate on their own...I would think that answer would be obvious." He chuckled and continued, "There are only so many Phoenixes on this earth, and we don't know how many there are, or how they were created, because of their regeneration. They don't need to mate, which is why whenever you do see one...there is only one. Believe me, if there was a way for us to find out that information, we would have centuries ago. Many witches and wizards have researched, studied, and done everything possible to find all of that information out. But we truly do not know, and believe me if I did know I would tell you because that is very important information!" He pondered for a moment before continuing, "There are many myths and legends...but that is the problem...they can't be proven. Which is what makes these birds so interesting; the mystery. Every bit of the information I have shared today is all what many people have gathered in extensive study of the birds. I have done extensive research myself, and all that I can find or have experienced is what I have told you today." In many ways, he really would love to find the answer to Derf's questions, but he accepted a few years ago that it was just impossible, and he should enjoy the time that he has with Ash.

Tristan quietly made his way back towards the blackboard, looking at his watch as he made his way. The really had to move on if they were going to have enough time to get through this next bit...which so many of them had been waiting for.

"Alright, please finish up and turn in your parchments. We are going to move on to the final activity." He paused and a huge grin spread across his face. "Many of you have been mercilessly begging me to touch or pet Ash, but I am going to let you go a little further." He paused for dramatic effect. "I am going to let each of you take a ride on his tail." He grinned knowing many of them would be very excited for this news.

"But first some rules." With a flick of his wand the previous words on the board melded into new words. It read:

4. HAVE FUN!

"Now when you hold on to Ash's tail feathers make sure you have a tight grip. You will feel weightless, but that doesn't mean you are so please be gentle. If you feel like you are going to fall, don't worry..." With a flick of his wand a bag rolled out from the the side of the barn, and unraveled itself, turning into one of those giant airbags that people nicknamed 'The Blob,' "...you can let go onto the blob." He grinned. Was that everything? He thought so.....wait..."One more thing. You can ride individually or in pairs. No more than two people at a time. Only one person really needs to hold on to the tail feathers, the other can hold a hand or leg, but it would be safer if you both hold onto the feathers." He was sure there would be someone begging him to do a larger group but he didn't want to stress Ash out with large groups.

"Alright....who wants to go first?" He grinned as Ash cooed

OOC: Alrighty! So I saved the best for last lol Go ahead and RP that you are taking your turn, we don't have to do this one at a time. Please don't have them falling anywhere other than the air bag, because Ash knows what route to take!! Also, please don't RP the thoughts of Ash. You may RP his actions, (ex: I gently gripped the birds tail and he immediately took flight. He flapped his scarlet wings, and sang as we flew.) but not his thoughts. There is no post limit, so please post as much as you would like! But most importantly, HAVE FUN!!

If you have any questions for the professor title your post and we will answer as soon as possible!

You have the rest of class to Fly with the Phoenix! Class will end at 11:59 pm EST on May 14th!
