Oh, already there... and sitting in the front?! What was this blasphemy? And yet, she couldn't help but feel PROUD to see her bestie sitting there all attentive.
"Morning Professor Marchand," Skylar greeted cheerfully, because why shouldn't she be cheerful towards him? He was one of the most trustworthy professors at Hogwarts. Sliding into the seat next to Vivian, she beamed at the blond. "I'm proud of you, you know," she whispered. Yup. She couldn't even be mad at her for getting to charms class before her, because well, it was charms.

He should’ve realized it was only a matter of time before someone asked what was inside the box. So he gave the only honest answer he could without completely giving away the surprise. “Just some supplies for the lesson.”
...
Gaston glanced at his watch... it was almost time for class to start. He waited another moment or two for any stragglers to show up before aiming his wand at the door. It closed tightly behind him. He moved to the center of the room and addressed his students. "Good morning, class. I hope you're all doing well today..." His bright blue eyes scanned the rows. "For those of you wondering what he bubbles are for, We'll get to that soon, but for now I can at least tell you what's inside one of the boxes..."
He set the smaller box under his arm on his desk and lifted the lid. "Prizes, more specifically notepads," he explained, taking a small pad of paper out of the box. "These are designed for sending messages; the paper will magically fold itself into an airplane and fly to its intended receipent..." He tore a page off of the notepad. It folded into a paper airplane and sailed toward the back of the room. "These will be awarded for creativity and participation; by the end of class, everyone will get one."
"Moving on..." He turned toward the blackboard and gave a quick flick of his wand. The words FLIGHT CHARMS appeared on the board in big letters. "What do you know about flight charms? It can be the name of one of said spells, a piece of historical information about flight charms or their use, a situation in which you think a flight charm would be useful... the more out-of-the-box the better!"
Supplies for the lesson? That was a vague answer to her question, but Vivian was going to let that go for now if it meant spoiling the surprise for this lesson. All she offered was a grin for Professor Marchand. They'd know eventually, yeah?
It was definitely odd for the Slytherin. The moment Sky walked in, it had only occurred to the blond on that moment that apparently she had arrived at Charms classroom first, even before her own best friend who loved the subject. She was even more confused when brunette told her that she was proud of her. "
Wh-what? Why?" Vivian blinked and scooted a little to give Sky a space to sit. "
Did I do something?" Oblivious and clueless, this Fairfield was. It wasn't like she had found the cure for dragonpox or some sort of disease. Then maybe she'd finally have a reason for people to be proud of her.
But it was time to move on with the lesson. The content of the box that the man was holding was apparently filled with prizes, which was kinda funny. He just loved giving out prizes, didn't he? A small smile grew on Vivian's lips, but her inner competitiveness wasn't to be ignored. However, about the notepads, Vivian was curious. "
Sir," the prefect raised her hand. "
Is there a certain limitation as to how far the paper airplane can fly?" Because, you know, she was considering things. Would those reach places as far as, let's say, Durmstrang? Curious.
And as for the discussion on flight charms, Vivian scribbled a bit on her notebook before raising her hand again to answer the real question this time. "
Flight charms also work on entertaining kids, Professor," the blond said, fondly remembering a moment when her Aunt Elise placed a charm on her so she could 'fly'. Baby Vivian liked being called Super Vivi, okay? "
It gives them the idea that they are flying."
