She sat down at the front row and read the message on the board. "Hello Professor Newton," she said as she mentally wondered if they were about to have a super interesting debate about magic.
It was no surprise to Kay that the first student to be present was Kitty. She was greeted by a warm smile. “Hello, good morning, Ms Valentine. Quite well, thank you for asking. Marshmallow would like you to have a play date with her again.’’ The crup was quite fond of the Ravenclaw.
SPOILER!!: Noelle! <3 Quote:

"Hey Kitty" She said waving at her fellow prefect. She went in further and perched herself at one of the desks before looking at the board. Huh. Magic is might... or is it? What did that mean?
"Good morning professors" She said before pulling a few things out to get ready for class.
“Good morning to you too, Ms Summers,’’ Kay said airily. “I hope we’re going to have to duel each other again.’’ She had rather enjoyed their duel and thought that Roderick had gotten a brilliant idea for student/staff duels.
SPOILER!!: Kyle! <3 Quote:

But if anyone could fit them together, it would certainly be the professors. He went and sat next to one of the windows and laid his head on the desk while he waited for class to start. But he wasn't going to fall asleep! NOPE!!
The firstie got a smile as he entered the room and Kay’s eyes followed him as he took a seat beside one of the windows. Thankfully, Kyle didn’t look sleepy and she was also sure that he wouldn’t be throughout the lesson for this was going to be an interesting one.
SPOILER!!: Zoryn! <3 Quote:

Like WHO WANTED THIS?????
Literally no one asked for this. NO ONE.
Unless someone DID ask for this. In which case, when Zoryn found out which of her classmates it was, she was gonna personally see to it that they never had another idea ever again. This was the WORST day of her ENTIRE life!!!! WHY WOULD THE PROFESSORS DO THIS TO HER??????? She already had to take both of the classes individually. WASN'T THAT ENOUGH PAIN TO GO THROUGH????????????????????????
The second year had a VERY intense displeased look on her face as she walked into the classroom and chose a seat RIGHT by the window as far away from the front of the room.
If magic was might then Zoryn Spinnet wouldn't have to be here. And that was the real answer to the ambiguous board question.
My, my. Zoryn looked rather annoyed. “Good morning, Ms Spinnet.’’ This was a rather cheerful greeting as she aimed to try to put a smile on the Gryffindor’s face. “Don’t look so dismayed. This will be a lesson that you’ll enjoy. You’ll get to voice your opinions.’’
SPOILER!!: Cass! <3 Quote:

Just a mite confusing since one was all about magical history and the other stuck to being non-magical right done to the writing utensils allowed. Not that Cassie thought muggle and magic couldn’t coexist just that it was an interesting combo of subjects in her mind as she made her way to the History of Magic classroom. “Good morning, Professor Stewart,” she greeted the woman whom was the first she met at the door. And a “Good day, Professor Newton,” followed as she stepped inside the room and took in the other woman at her desk.
Also interesting was the quote on the board. “Magic is…might,” she read quietly as she moved to take a seat. Hadn’t she read that from somewhere? The Ravenclaw mulled over the words as she set out her supplies, trying to think on them and what they had to do with...OH!
"Are we talking about the Second Wizarding World today, Professors?" she asked curiously.
“Good morning, Ms McNally!’’ Kay was very pleased to see that the kiddos were trekking in early. She’d have hated to get started and a some of them were late. “Go on, grab yourself a seat.’’ She added a nod in response to Rose’s answer to the question.
SPOILER!!: Olivia! <3 Quote:
Originally Posted by Govoni A JOINT lesson? Why yes, Olivia thought very much so!
Be-bopping into the History of Magic classroom, in a pretty great mood (and on some strong headache potions), the blonde smiled to those already assembled. She also tugged the earbuds out, having decided to keep them in until she got to class. All the chatter in the corridors echoed off the stone walls and reverberated in her skull. So, it was just best to block that all out. Never mind that it was a dangerous practice. Gryffindor, remember?
Anyway, the lion!lady was excited for a join lesson...and was hoping that she could actually participate in the magic for the day. It was NOT fun having to sit out on the sidelines.
Oh, goddess, and the quote written out on the chalkboard... This wasn't going to be a lesson that got her fired up, was it? Bless her head. "Professor Stewart......Professor Newton." Both subjects she enjoyed. And one's mostly without magic. So, she was excited.
This was someone Kay knew who always looked forward to lessons especially Muggle Studies. The woman was no less pleased to see her. “Hello, Ms Phillips!’’
SPOILER!!: Stasya! <3 Quote:
Originally Posted by SilverTiger The idea of a joint lesson definitely seemed interesting to Stasya, especially since she was pretty certain after things like the pet party that the professors were friends.

Unless they were going to be talking about persecution, which definitely wasn’t on her top ten list of favorite subjects. But, she definitely liked both Professor Stewart and Professor Newton, so she had walked up to the History of Magic classroom with a smile on her face. Besides, there was lots to be happy about so she didn’t see why she should pretend not to be happy. At least, she didn’t think so until she’d gotten to the classroom and saw what was written on the board. That definitely sounded like a persecution thing.
“G’morning Professor Newton, g’morning Professor Stewart,” she said, still giving both professors a grin even though she was way more hesitant about if she was going to like this lesson. Still, she’d walked further into the classroom, claiming the seat right next to Liv even though she’d also given Noelle, Zoryn and even Kyle over by the window waves. Was he actually asleep?
“Hi Liv,” she said a little bit quieter than she’d greeted the professors. Plus, she got a big grin before the twelve-year-old had gone back to eyeing the words on the board.
The grin was returned. “Good morning, Ms Dalgaard-Volkova!’’
I trust that you’re well.’’ That grin had said it all, actually, and she felt Stasya’s had been genuine.
SPOILER!!: Katherine! <3 Quote:
Originally Posted by Cassirin Combined classes could be fun but they also sometimes mixed boring and slightly less boring subjects together.

"Good day, Professor and Professor." And the windows were open and it was a beeeeeeautiful day. Katy picked a chair right in the front and waved merrily at the professors. And then she saw the message on the board. Oh, mood killer. Mood killer right there. Magic is might was all kinds of loaded.
“Good day, Ms Toussaint! Go right ahead to find a seat.’’ They would be getting started soon-ish anyway.
SPOILER!!: Shay! <3 Quote:
Originally Posted by Daydreamer11 A joint class. Well at least putting History of Magic and Muggle Studies together seemed like a good combination. Shayla reached the classroom and was greeted right away. "Hello Professor Stewart", she said cheerfully. Then noticing her other co-teacher, Shay acknowledged her too. "Hello Professor Newton", she added with a smile.
With her eye on the nearest empty seat, Shay headed toward it. On the way she gave a wave to her Gryffindor housemate. "Hey Ava". Shay sat down in her seat and retrieved her needed supplies from her book bag. Pen, notebook, textbooks. Check, check and check. Then she finally turned to look at the board. "MAGIC IS MIGHT. Or is it? With a puzzled look, she tried to figure out what the statement meant. How would this relate to their lesson? She guessed she would have the answer soon.
This was someone who was almost always prompt to her lessons. “Hello, Ms Morrison!’’
SPOILER!!: Etta! <3 Quote:
Originally Posted by Lady of Light A joint lesson would be interesting, to say the least. Etta made her way to the classroom, feeling unusually happy and cheerful. It was just one of those days. And she was early to class too, which was a relief. A small smile on her face, she entered the room and greeted the professors first as her smile widened to a grin. "Hello, professors. Hope you're both doing well today."
She made her way to an empty seat near the middle of the classroom and sat down, noticing the words written on the board. Magic is might. Her smile faded as she tried to figure out what they'd actually be learning today. Uh.
“Good day, Ms Kramer! Oh, I’m quite well! And you?’’ Kay was always genuinely concerned about the well being of her kiddos.
SPOILER!!: Ava! <3 Quote:
Originally Posted by RandomRaven Ava didn't mind muggle studies, but history of magic?
Yawn.
Why on earth these two subjects collaborated today?
She didn't history of magic AT ALL. Mostly on this class the Gryffindor would end up doing something to distract herself or just skipped it. She wanted to skip it but muggle studies was such a fun class and not attending it was kind of big miss (sort of). Nevertheless, Ava decided to attend it and hopefully she would not fall asleep in this clasroom. Hence why she had a big tumbler of coffee on her hand. "Professors," She slightly greeted both of them and decided to take a seat at the corner.
"Uh, hi Shay." She greeted her fellow lioness and back to sipping the caffeine liquid. Errrrrr... this was too bitter.
“Hello, Ms Burton!'' She peered curiously at the tumbler. “Coffee?’’ Kay could smell the aroma now and was reminded of a certain former CoMC professor.
SPOILER!!: Kirk! <3 Quote:
Originally Posted by Charely Potter History of Magic, check. Muggle Studies, check. Putting together, well it was seemingly obvious on what the topic would be.. But History itself was difficult to predict on which part they would be going over, it was a mystery at this point to Kirk. He arrived in the classroom, not tired for one, but not enthusiastic, just feeling.. Kirky. If that could be a word, "Heylo Professor Stewart." He greeted first as she was by the door before seeing the History teacher, "Heylo Professor Newton."
Now Kirk could choose a spot to sit. Somewhere near the window, he felt like letting the sun hit him as he stared at the board. MAGIC IS MIGHT. Or is it? He thought about his girlfriend making it in today.. It felt weird not being around Mel lately with her being sick, but he didn't mind getting her homework for her again incase today was no exception. He sighed lightly before turning to the nearest familiar face, ah, Etta. It had been a while since they spoke, "What do you think they'll have us do today?" There were a number of possibilities after all.
Kirk too got a broad smile. “Hello, Mr Forsfelle. Find yourself a seat, we’ll be getting started in a few minutes.’’
SPOILER!!: Mel! <3 Quote:
Originally Posted by Optimist.Prime The potions had finally worked…that, and maybe it was more getting a potion from Healer Reed?

Practically RUNNING to the joint History of Magic and Muggle studies lesson…did it matter if she had to talk a lot?
Her voice well…it wasn’t really BACK but she’d gotten the okay to go to class. That was good…she wanted to do well for Gryffindor…and well for OWLs really. Sure, she liked that Kirk and Tenacius had been providing her with notes and homework but really…really, she wanted to be a part of it. To learn, to be there in the classroom interacting with everyone.
Mel looked up at the Professors and smiled – beamed really. Did she need a sign to say I’m not contagious – I just lost my voice because apparently that was all that had happened…she’d had one of those teeeeeeerrrible spring colds. Spring colds were the worst kind of colds they always seemed to hit her much stronger than any other cold ever…and this one, this one had hit her HARD to the point where she had just hidden out in the common room with cups upon cups of tea.
”Hey Kirk” she practically whispered, then turning to look at Etta Mel just grinned. Etta was cool – really, hello she was obviously cool she was Owlie’s bestie and Owlie was amaaaaazing. ”Hey Etta!” Mel grinned and looked around for other familiar faces. Everytime her eyes flicked to someone she knew she’d give them a small smile hello. Where was Lacy?
That nickname would stick forever…yep, he would never live that boat-party-massacre down…sure it wasn’t a massacre but it was sooooooooooo awkward – Hitchcock level awkward. ”Hello Professor Stewart, Professor Newton” she smiled brightly at the two of them her voice was low and timid as she spoke. Glancing over to Kirk she smiled ”I got the okay to go to classes – the rest helped…thanks for giving me notes and homework for classes” she smiled at him happily…right had she told him she was coming today? Probably not.
Seeing Melbourne approach, Kay immediately gathered that she was feeling better. “Hello, Ms Sorin- Ward. I’m really pleased to hear that.’’ It was so sweet of Mel to thank them like that. “You’re quite welcome. Now, I hope you won’t get sick again.’’ Blue eyes twinkled with humour.
SPOILER!!: Rula! <3 Quote:
Originally Posted by AlwaysSnapesGirl Muggle Studies was a subject Rula found really interesting - even if she wasn't the greatest at it - but History of Magic...well, it wasn't her least favorite subject, at least. So this joint lesson would still be interesting probably!
"Hi, Professor Stewart and Professor Newton!" she greeted them with a bright smile, also pleased to note the open windows. It was finally getting warmer out there, so letting in the fresh air was definitely welcome.
As she took a seat near a window, she finally noticed the writing on the board. Hmmm, well that was a good clue about what their lesson was going to be about today. Definitely interesting.
Kay looked to her watch. Just a few more minutes and Rose would get started. She directed her attention back to the corridor. “Ah, hello, Ms Botros!’’
SPOILER!!: Skylar! <3 Quote:
Originally Posted by PhoenixRising If you ask Skylar, they should have done a joint lesson with one of the subjects that took place in the towers. And had the lesson take place down on the first floor, because then she for once wouldn't have to walk so far. She was rather intrigued though as to how History of Magic and Muggle Studies could be combined and it was so lucky that she liked Professor Newton's man person, because that reflected on her liking and trusting Newton. Even if Newton's lesson were usually drama induced. K Stewart, she was indifferent about, but her lessons were usually interesting.
Magic is might. The fourth year took note of the board upon entering the classroom. Well, if that wasn't a statement that would produce conflict? So much for hoping for a drama-free lesson. "Hello Professor Newton. Professor Stewart." She greeted, taking a seat near the back. She wanted a full view of the classroom, should drama unfold.
“Hello, Ms Diggory.’’ She too got a smile. By now, Kay hadn’t even bother to stop smiling. There were more kiddos behind Skylar. She ushered the girl to go find a seat.
SPOILER!!: Niece Emmeline! <3 Quote:
Originally Posted by NifflerFan This would be interesting. Emmeline sometimes liked both of these subjects, depending on what each particular lesson was about. They could be super boring or super interesting or somewhere in the middle. She was learning all about grey areas, uh huh. But the truth was that she would have come to this lesson even if it was on the history of flobberworms in the muggle word, 'cause Professor Stewart was teaching it. Since the other Professor Stewart had become her guardian a couple weeks ago, she figured she should support anyone in her new family. Plus, Professor Newton was super nice too.
"Hiii professors," she chirped as she passed them. Loads of people got smiles and waves, especially Mel, Zoryn, Miss Noelle, Miss Ava, and allll the other people she knew. Except Stasya and Miss Olivia 'cause she slid into the seat on Stasya's free side and shot both girls a grin. She was about to say hi when the sentence on the board snagged her attention and she shuddered. She was not a fan of the whole "magic is might" thing, nope. She really hoped nobody else was either, 'cause it sounded like the dumb "wizards are better than muggles" idea and that was scary.
This adorable kiddo was someone she had grown to be fond of over the entire school year. It was needless to say Kay was pleased to see her. “Hello, Ms Sparkes!’’ Yes, she did call her by her first name but that was only when they were spending time together. At present, they were just student and Professor.
SPOILER!!: Vivian! <3 Quote:
Originally Posted by Kimothy Another joint Muggle Studies and History of Magic class? Hmm, that was rather interesting. And it was a good thing that it was being held at the History of Magic classroom, which was situated on the first floor. It was nearer the common room so Vivian was taking this opportunity to drag herself into class since there weren't much stairs involved.
Skipping into the classroom, Vivian poked her head inside and beamed at the Muggle Studies professor who was at the door. "Good day, Professor Stewart!" The blonde greeted the woman, then her eyes drifted over to the other professor. She, too, received a wide grin from the Slytherin. "Good day as well, Professor Newton!" Yup, she was in rather good spirits today. Wasn't this Fairfield child always in a bright mood?
Then she went over to flop on the seat beside Skylar. Also, aaahhhhh wasn't it cool today? Fresh air everywhere!
Vivian was excited and hyper it seemed. Kay loved her energy. “Good day, Ms Fairfield! Pull up a seat, we’ll be starting soon.’’
SPOILER!!: Derf! <3 Quote:
Originally Posted by sweetpinkpixie Derf was having an IT'S ABOUT TIME moment with this whole joint lesson thing. There had been loads of overlap or like...the POTENTIAL for it but you know. He was running just a little late and came skidding to a stop in the classroom after his wind spring down the corridor. "H-H-Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii...profes-s-sooooors," he huffed and puffed while using the sleeve of his robe to wipe his brown clean. Bright blues went to the board and read the words there. Well, that kinda left little to the imagination, yeah? Domination of muggles by the wizarding world? No thanks.
Chipper mood turned somber by the potential discussion ahead, Derf slipped into the nearest seat and hugged his enchanted suitcase to himself - chin resting on the handle - with an uncomfortable pout on his face.
Was there seriously ANYONE in this room who...believed in the ideal that that expression represented?
“We should get started soon, Rose,’’ Kay said quietly to Rose just as Derf came to a halt in the room. Poor dear. He had obviously ran all the way to the classroom. “Hello, Mr Ashburry- Hawthorne! You’re just in time.’’
SPOILER!!: Junia! <3 Quote:
Originally Posted by TakemetotheBurrow "Hello Professors," Junia Botros greeted as she entered the classroom and gave her usual curtsy. The good weather had everything to do with her good mood and the smile she wore was genuine as she moved to find a seat.
Ru. The brunette spotted her older sister almost immediately in the crowded room and headed right for her. She was graduating soon, Rula was. On to bigger and better things and LEAVING Junia here to live up to the legacy the HEAD GIRL had left behind. NO PRESSURE or anything right?
Merlin.
"Hi." She wasn't going to bother the older girl or anything, she just wanted to be close while she still COULD be. There was something comforting about having your big sis around, after all. Particularly when you were going to be discussing such a dark part of history...
Junia had such a nice habit. It was the curtsy that Kay was referring to. She gave her signature smile in return. “Hello, Ms Botros. You too are just in time.’’
* * * * * * *
Kay was the one to carefully shut the class’s door once she was sure the corridor was clear. As Rose got started, she casually leaned against the desk. Her time would come soon enough to contribute to the lesson. As it was, she listened to her best friend spoke then waited for the reactions of the students.
It came to her as no surprise that is was Kitty who spoke first and who had the most to say. Kay knew a lot about her and how fond she was of muggles. Hence, it was understandable that she put forth so much information. The others too, had their bit to say and it made her proud as always to see just how much they knew.
Now it was her time to move the lesson along. The woman moved from the desk to the front of the class. “Thank you, Rose. Now, I’m very pleased to see just how much you all know about the Statute. It is a very crucial part of our world. However, over the course of the years, there have been witches and wizards who have opposed this Statue. None has been more prominent than Carlotta Pinkstone.’’ And here, Kay couldn’t help but wonder if the name Kitty Valentine would join Carlotta’s and the others. “Has any of you come across her name? Does anyone know anything about her?’’ Surely a few of them must. Carlotta was featured on the back of Chocolate Frog cards after all. “For those of you who are not familiar with Carlotta, can you tell us what are your opinions on the Statute. Should we keep to ourselves? Should we reveal ourselves? Kindly remember to keep your responses respectable; do not attack anyone for their opinions.’’ This was a tricky topic, she knew and this is why she and Rose would be vigilant to the answers that would be pouring in. OOC: Hiii! My next reply will come in 24 hours! Don’t sweat it if you can’t reply in time because you can always play catch up! :3 |
