Amelia Raventhorne was not fond of creatures and dirty, outdoors places. She preferred classrooms, which were neat and orderly and far more controlled environments. In fact, Amelia was fairly certain that she had never once visited a creature barn of any kind when she attended Hogwarts. Nevertheless, she was here to observe a Divination lesson, and she would not be put off from that important goal by Professor Vance's chosen location. The former Ravenclaw could certainly see how a change in environment or venue could help students learn different forms of Divination, and she was rather interested to see where Professor Vance went with this unusual setting.

Amelia couldn't help but wrinkle her nose as she entered the creature barn where this lesson was to be held; the smells were already getting to her.
Her first order of business was to walk up to Professor Vance and greet her:
"Good morning, Professor Vance." The next was to find a seat at the very back of the class and set herself up for the lesson. Amelia sat down on the mat in the back corner and tried not to wince at sitting on the dusty,
dirty floor. Once she was seated comfortably, she withdrew a clipboard, her observation form that the Board had decided to use for these lessons, and a quill that was enchanted to refill itself with ink automatically.

Emmeline was super excited about today's Divination lesson, even though it was really early in the morning. It was being held in the creatures barn, so it was pretty much guaranteed to be awesome, as long as they wouldn't be hurting or scaring any creatures for the lesson. The second year didn't have far to go this morning, either, which was a super nice change from racing to the North Tower; she had already been in the infant creature barn next door since right after breakfast, taking care of Sirius and Sapphire. So Emmeline was all smiles and happiness as she bounced into the adult creature barn and took a seat on one of the mats in the middle, calling out, "Hiiii, Professor Vance," as she went. This was gonna be the best Divination lesson ever, she could feel it. She did frown a little bit as she'd walked past an old lady with a clipboard in the back; what was up with these random old ladies sitting in on their lessons lately?
