Since she didn't have any known allergies, she grabbed the face mask, leaving the suits for those that were in greater need.

"Hi Professor Myers!" She greeted with a joyous smile on her face. She loved having class with her Head of House and always looked forward to them. Then her eyes fell on Professor Noble. He looked rather less excited to be there than Professor Myers did. She tried not to assume the worst and made sure another bright smile was fixed on her face before extending him a greeting. "Good day to you as well, Professor Noble." Then she gave him a curtsy. Her face immediately flushed with embarrassment, not knowing why in Merlin's beard she did that. She tossed the mask over her face, fully entered the green house, then hustled towards a station to start unloading her required supplies.


“Good day to you, Miss Emmalyn. Lovely to see you as aaaaalllllwaaaaaays!” Very cheerful. Probably because he was with his bestest pal IGGY.

Not that Iggy was aware they were best pals. But that was probably for the best.

Ugh. Ugh. UGH.

He made it Greenhouse 4 and was greeted with some ugly Hufflepuff yellow suits, which caused him to wrinkle his nose. His brown eyes diverted to the note and began reading it. Instead of taking a mask, he pulled out his wand and muttered the incantation for the bubblehead charm. Once his head was secured inside the bubble, he proceeded his way into the greenhouse.

"Oi, Myers!" He called out. "I haven't killed the plant you got me yet." That was an achievement, right? He looked over in Noble's direction, giving him a purely innocent look, then went to find a workbench for today's lesson.


…..”WELL THAT’S WONDERFUL TO HEAR. Congrats again, m’boy,” he winked at one of his FAVORITE students professors don’t have favorites what are you saaaaaaying and smiled. “Now let’s see if it survives for the rest of term with you, ‘kay?”

SPOILER!!: Felicity

In some ways, it was much a case of killing two birds with one stone and she quite enjoyed when subjects were complementary - it made studying easier, if only slightly.

Surprised by the warm air that hit her once she'd entered the greenhouse, the seventh year took a moment to remove the coat she'd been wearing to keep her warm on the way down from the Castle, before reading the note.

"Professor Myers, Professor Nobel," she managed quietly, nodding to each of the teachers in turn before drawing her wand and casting the bubblehead charm on herself. She didn't particularly like having her head encased in a bubble - what little spacial awareness she had was diminished further - but it did beat wearing a mask, she had to admit to herself, making her way to a seat.


He gave a friendly way to Felicity and a cheerful smile. Everyone looked adorable with their bubble head charms, did they all KNOW?

She unwrapped her scarf and read the note near some big crazy suit things. Bubblehead Charm? She didn't know her. Anna considered waiting for her brother so he would cast the spell on her, but she couldn't be bothered and so she decided to simply grab one of the masks provided and put it over her face. Yees, do it the Muggle way. She didn't mind it one bit.

"Hello! Hello!" The Gryffindor greeted both professors as she made her way to one of the workstations. She placed her stuff on one of the workbenches and looked around at all of the plants as she pulled out her scarf and removed her cloak.


It was quite warm in here, yes. Many of the students were shedding thick winter cloaks and coats, and Paul didn’t blame them. Had they warned them? He couldn’t remember. He couldn’t remember a lot of things these days. “Good day, Anna!”

She would love to have a bobblehead charm, but didn't know how and didn't see any of her housemates yet.

"Hello professors!"

Giving a friendly wave to both she found a place for class.


This one had a LOT of energy. She was a first year? Second? Something. First year, yes. The squeal was appreciated. Nothing like a hyped student to hype Paul up himself. He bounced WITH her for a second. “Hello student! Chloe!” he grinned teasingly.

SPOILER!!: Quinn

Fortunately, Quinn had opted to leave both her leather jacket and her Phoenix feather in her trunk by her bed, as she was suddenly quite confident they'd have been ruined by the end of this lesson otherwise.

She slipped on a face mask and made her way into the greenhouse. Her ice blue eyes studied the professors each in turn as she made her way to a seat at random without a word. As always, she had to fight to not to let her low opinion of Professor Myers' abomination of a wardrobe from showing on her face, and Quinn quickly began to set up her workstation as a way of distracting herself.

She pulled out the collapsible cauldron Puck had given her, and set it up on the tripod, then removed the old textbook of Puck's, in which every bit of margin seemed filled with scribbled notes and suggestions on how to better brew every potion in it. And once her station was set up, Quinn turned her focus on the plant that seemed to be center stage, both out of curiosity and because it kept her from having to look at the fashion victim that was her Herbology professor.


And he swoooooooped in right next to her. He patted her shoulder. “Good day, Quinn, hello!” he smiled. She never seemed to want to look at him, and Paul took that to mean she was nervous...that he made her nervous. Well, he had NO idea why and he would simply do everything he absolutely could to make her NOT nervous.

InCLUUUUUDING talking to her in the corridors every time he saw her. YEP.

Yeah. The suit.

Chloe pulled on the MagHaz suit before padding into the greenhouse. There were stations set up around a mysterious plant, and Chloe planted herself near the front. The better to see the plant and the professors and maybe get to do something coooool. "Good DAY to you, Professor Myers and Professor Noble. And it is a good day, even when it's cold." Just so they knew.


The first student to don the suit! Paul thought it looked so cool. “Chloe, you look absolutely SMASHING in that suit, let me tell you,” and he posed as any runway model wouldn’t.
“Work it.”

SPOILER!!: Daehyun

But still, he was looking forward to the joint class. It would be fun to watch the two polar opposites teach the same class, and it only confirmed it as he stepped inside the greenhouse. He had to bite his lips to keep himself from smiling at the sight of the two professors, one like literal sunshine, and the other- not so much shine there. "Hello, professors," he greeted, before moving to grab a mask and settling at a workstation next to Quinn, whom he'd greeted with a smile - hidden behind the mask - and a nod.

The lesson seemed as though it would be dangerous. And he loved it.


He sent a wave to the young lad cheerfully and SMILED from ear to ear. Should he also talk a lot to Quinn’s friends so he wouldn’t make her nervous even MORE? Like...less nervous? He would have, but he had students pouring into the lesson.

SPOILER!!: Maddie

She saw the professors a few steps ahead, but she stopped to double-check that she'd brought everything required before she went any further. She even had a jar of toenail clippings---ewww---in her hands.

After a good read of the notice on the door, Maddie finished the walk inside, putting her within conversation's reach of her two professors. "Hello, Professor Noble!" she said, her eyes falling on the Potions professor first. Then she saw her Head-of-House and greeted him, too. "Hello, Professor Myers!" That was as nice and proper as she could greet them, a manner she'd chosen because one of them was her Head of House and the other put up with zero percent nonsense.

On that note, she headed toward one of the seats toward the front of the horseshoe and began setting up her materials. "Viseo Ebullio!" she said, waving her wand around her head. A bubble appeared, and then the third year went on about her business setting things up again.


“Hello Maddie, M’dear!” he grinned as the young Hufflepuff made her way inside.

SPOILER!!: Ronan

And yes, he had the requested toenail clippings (ugh, why though?!).

Reaching the greenhouse, he took in the sign and debated its significance for a minute. He knew that there were no pumpkins or limes in the greenhouse since it mostly contained the more dangerous plants and they weren't typically considered dangerous. So, what was with the note? Was this Professor Noble's incredibly juvenile attempt at embarrassing him in retaliation for the whole potions lab incident? Because Ronan found it odd that he'd never heard another word about it from the professor. But, wasn't he suffering enough from that? He felt he was (see the punching-bag-delivered black eye he was sporting for one thing).

Deciding to be defiant, the most like himself he'd been in days now, he entered the greenhouse under a Bubble-Head Charm. He saw no pumpkins or limes, thank goodness, nor did he see a good reason for the charm, but that was probably because he couldn't smell the scents the plants were giving off. He could, however feel the tropical atmosphere that made him glad that he'd jogged out here coatless, as per his usual when going to class. Anyway, he chose a seat as far away from Professor Noble and a certain Slytherin as possible, but yet one where he could still be a part of class. "Hey, Professor Myers," he started in the same flat tone he'd been speaking in. "Professor Noble."


Paul was fond of Ronan. It was why, when he saw the boy looking less than excited for Herbology, he strode over to him casually. “Good day, Ronan, I hope all is well, eh?’ he asked in a friendly tone.

Also, he looked a little worse for wear at the moment .___.

SPOILER!!: Stasya

Still, she didn’t think he was so cruel as to hold the lesson simply to get back at her for all the previous lesson problems. She did try to make most of the potions they learned, after all. She just questioned a lot of the ingredients most of the time.

Well, there had been that one mandrake lesson. She’d mostly forgiven Professor Myers for that, though, so she’d had a smile on her face as she’d made her way into Greenhouse Four. Bubblehead charm in place since she felt like practicing her charms work was better than falling back to using the Muggle masks and stuff. Plus, she didn’t have any sever allergies anyway. “Good day, Professor Myers, Professor Noble,” she said, settling herself into an open seat to wait for the lesson to start.


Mandrakes weren’t creatures though, were they? Ah, Paul never forgot how much Stasya had hated that lesson even if HE found it extremely interesting, as did a few others. He waved at her in greetings.

SPOILER!!: Zoryn

Honestly. While some may have seen this as the opportunity to rip the bandaid off, so to speak, Zoryn just found it to be DOUBLE the TORTURE.

And what was up with these weird suits? Ughhhhhhhh. Could they just leave now?

Unfortunately, Zoryn was trying to get her broom back which meant that she not only had to attend the lessons now, but she also had to somewhat try. U G H x2. So with much reluctancy, the Gryffindor donned the stupid, yellow, urine-cup-looking suit and marched her way inside. "This has got to qualify as some sort of cruel and unusual punishment," was all she had to say in greeting to both of her Professors. No offense. Actually, ALL THE OFFENSE.


Paul turned to look at Zory and laaaaaughed. If it had been a student he was fond of…. *ahem* he wouldn’t have laughed, but even so, there were parts of Zoryn he enjoyed. Like her spunk and energy in EVERYTHING she believed in. She did annoy him though. A lot.

A lot.

So he laughed, in a well-mannered way of course, not cruelly, and twirled his wand in his fingers slyly. “You’ve figured us out, Miss Spinnet. That is our main goal here at Hogwarts, after all. Forget teaching. Cruel and unusual punishments, all the way. I live for them.” He winked.

Turning around to look more closely she spotted the two professors and she smiled friendly, ”hello professors, it’s interesting to have a lesson like this” she said, still smiling because, it was interesting. But when she saw the face masks and the recommendations for the protective charms she sighed, this promised a lot of work and honestly, she did not really liked it to work with dangerous plants, not even if she needed to use them for her potions lesson… Uttering a soft sigh she used the bubblehead charm because she trusted magic more than a simple mask.


“It will be interesting, I assure you!” he gave the Slytherin a thumbs up. He had a bad habit of thinking Leesha was still very young, and she wasn’t. And alas….soon he would no longer see any of the students on his day to day basis.

SPOILER!!: Hattie

It was much better option that leaving her coat to get dirty, or somewhere where she might forget it. The girl smiled to herself, looking forward to see what might happen today. Herbology was always interesting so she knew it would be good. She tilted her head to the side as she read the sign. "Interesting...." she mused, pulling her wand out and performing the bubble head charm. She also took a mask too, slipping it into the pocket of her robes. She didn't know what they'd be doing, and it might be that at some point the mask would be more practical that the charm.

And then she headed inside. "Hi Professor Myers. Hi Professor Noble!" The prefect greeted with a smile. She really was looking forward to this lesson. She looked around to see if any of her friends were there, giving Flynn a wave, before she decided to go sit with Felicity. "Hey Liss" She murmured with a smile. Today was going to be good.


One of his prefects had arrived, oooooh goody! He smiled and waved. “Hattie, hello! Nice to see you, dear.”

And combining Potions and Herbology? Well that was just bonza! She opted not to go for one of those hazma....maghaz suits because she was pretty sure it would limit her dexterity too much, and instead donned her gloves and one of the face masks. Bubble head charms were kind of beyond her actually so the mask was the only option that worked for her without bothering a professor or older kid to teach her or do it for her.

She stopped a little inside the doorway and took note of the layout of the room. LOOK at that plant! Was that where the pungent smell was coming from? Also, it was delightfully WARM in here, right up Bel's alley! So all in all, she was intrigued, and incredibly happy to be there.

"Hello professors!" Both of them. Was that okay to say hello inclusively? Just in case it wasn't, Bel shot each of them a cheerful smile and then hurried over to sit down. This was gonna be great!


And his captain. Bel got a firm shoulder pat whenever Paul saw her mostly because she was doing smashingly as captain, and he was very proud of her. Most times he didn’t even say anything, just that affectionate pat and he’d be on his way. A broad grin, too, of course.

It was the same today.

Daisy quickly made her way to an unoccupied station and began to set up.


“Heelllllllo, Daisy!” he greeted one of his young Hufflepuffs.

The Professors would never allow the students to make that decision themselves if it was something truly life threatening.

Largely more curious about whatever this mystery was than what the actual lesson was, Jessa walked into the greenhouse just as she was. The warming charm she'd placed on herself during the walk over was removed but that was about it. She was ready and waiting for whatever to happen.

"Hello Professor Myers.....Professor Noble." The Sixth Year was almost distracted as she looked about. Was it happening yet?

Would she feel it when whatever it was started?


Jessa seemed twitchy, a bit, didn’t she? “Hello Jessa, you all right?” he asked, stepping beside her curiously. “You look a little…….out of place, and I don’t believe I’ve ever seen you like before.” He said only loud enough for her to hear.

But then, Paul Myers had very little clue what was happening in young Jessa’s life at the moment.

SPOILER!!: Vivian

But it was Herbology and Vivian really liked the class even if it had to be a shared lesson with Potions today.

Let's be really honest, though. Vivian felt really weird bringing her recent nail clippings today. Kinda gross, and also kinda clueless because this wasn't Divination at all. The Head Girl cringed a little bit when she noticed that smell. GROSS. This wasn't a great way to start the year, she figured, but well... she'd give it a try. After placing a bubblehead charm on herself, Vivian entered the greenhouse and offered polite smiles to the men in front. "Good day, professors," the blond greeted and went to sit by Liss and Hattie. "Hi." She missed them during the break, just saying.

Also hi, Coleslaw.


The Slytherin prefect arrived and Paul smiled in her direction. The look on her face when she smelled the Greenhouse...ah! It was amusing to see all their faces...Paul himself was quite used to it.

SPOILER!!: Derfael[[QUOTE=sweetpinkpixie;12333559
Derf was feeling...a little indifferent to today's joint lesson. Neither excited nor dreading it, but seeing as these two subjects were ones that he was not particularly GOOD in for one reason or another...well, there was a neutral stance he was trying to keep himself on for the time being as he clutched his little bag of toe nail clippings from the doxy he was tending too because he had needed to start clipping it's claws so it wouldn't scratch everything up and stepped into the greenhouse.

W O A H. And he thought Professor Vance's classroom was potent. Woowzers.

Not even giving it all a second thought, Derf quickly slipped on one of the suits that reminded him of the ones he had seen muggles wear in toxic waste situations and crime scenes from his dad's crime shows and then waddled like a penguin further inside. He still couldn't do a proper Bubblehead Charm anyway, so it was a win-win all around.

Coming to a stop beside Chloe - who was also wearing one of these neat suits - he offered the Ravenclaw a wave and a grin before turning his attention to the professors.....and the plant. Did it have to be a big one? Couldn't they just work with honking daffodils sometime? Crossbreed there on sort of musical plants and create a flora orchestra?

"Good day, professors," he greeted nervously.
[/QUOTE]


Aaaaand his other...more dramatic prefect. Of course Derf went for the suit. He got a thumbs up from Paul, though, and a smile. Paul thought the suit was proooobably the best option for Derf since the boy tended to be………..magnetic to……...er, trouble?

Tossing potions into the mix was no doubt going to be interesting and she could hardly wait until to find out what they were going to be doing. Having to bring a small container containing toenail clippings didn't even bother her, clearly they would be using those in a potion of some sort. At least that was the most logical guess she could come up with.

Dressed warmly and taking the trip down to green house four a little more slowly due to the icy conditions of the day, Rylee was still sporting a smile. Spotting the note near the door she paused to read it quickly. "Face masks or bubble head charm.. suits if needed?" Wicked! This had to mean they were doing something awesome! What plants were they going to be working with? Was it dangerous? What potion were they going to be brewing? If someone messed up would the results be disastrous?

Pulling out her wand she quickly tried casting the bubble head charm on herself. She knew the incantation and the wand movement having learned it from Nathan a few months back. However she was still lacking in the effectiveness of how well it worked whenever she did manage to actually fully cast the charm.. which wasn't often. Today wasn't one of those days were it worked for her either. Perhaps that was for the best in case the charm wore off way to soon anyhow. Grabbing one of the face masks she slipped it on and returned her wand to it's holster.

Entering the rather warm greenhouse she removed her hat and gloves slipping them into her bag. "Hello, professors! I can't wait to see what we're learning today!" she chirped excitedly giving both Myers and Noble a wave since they couldn't see her bright smile behind the face mask she was wearing.

Finding an empty spot at one of the workbenches, Rylee sat down and began to set up her work station as normal. Only today she had both her potions things and her herbology's to set out, her bag was then laid beneath her seat.

Now that she was ready to began she was able to take a better look around at all the plants.


Chirp chirp, this one was excited too! Paul couldn’t help but bouncing a little. “Good day, Rylee, dear!” he waved.

So yep, Max wasn’t exactly thrilled to learn that today’s class was going to be a joint one.

Bubblehead charms weren’t a problem for him. Nor did he have any allergies. Still, he decided to sport one of the MagHaz suits…. Firstly, because they looked cool and secondly because it definitely made him feel a bit safer.

It wasn’t exactly easy to manoeuvre though, so rather than navigate awkwardly to sit beside a friend, he had no choice but to flop into the nearest available seat. The Professors didn’t get a greeting from him today…… Not because was being rude or anything, but because he was keeping an eye on that large plant. He didn’t trust it, okay?


He waved at Max but…..Max didn’t seem to notice it.

Oh.

Cue the embarrassment of waving and the person not returning said wave. Paul tried to smoothly maneuver it into a hair ruffle, but he still looked….awk.ward.

She was okay with collecting them from a jar.

Also the fact that she needed toenail clippings was kind of disgusting. But she did have them and as she entered the greenhouse, the pungent smell filling her nostrils, she cast the bubblehead charm on herself. It was way too warm in here to be wearing that suit and she didn't have any allergies.

Glancing around for where to sit, she spotted Felicity and Vivian, given them a friend smile, but the person who she wanted to see was right next to them. Convenient. Wedging in next to her Hufflepuff, she swallowed pangs of guilt about what had happened just before Christmas and slid a note into her hand, before shifting her gaze up at the Professors.

Text Cut: note
Meet me in the Prefect's Bathroom after class? We should talk.

xoxo, S


Paul smiled and waved at Skylar, but she seemed distracted a bit, so he wasn’t too hurt if she didn’t acknowledge him back for now.

However, as he approached and entered Greenhouse Four, the second year was reminded he need not worry about cold temperatures, loosening the scarf around his neck in the humid temperature.

Everything so green…and viney…and somewhat smelly.

Septimus read the posted note, grabbing a mask for his option. He wasn’t allergic to anything to his knowledge. Wouldn’t have really wanted to wear the suit regardless though, looking all weird and cumbersome to him. The Ravenclaw had slipped the mask on his head, though not in place just yet, when he came to the professors. Two sides of a very different coin. “Good day, Professors,” he greeted politely though didn’t dwell too much. Didn’t want Noble at least to be bothered by his presence, instead finding a spot and putting on the mask.


“GOod day to you TOOooO, Septimus, m’boy!” he waved at him.

Face mask sure, but bubblehead charms were still giving her flashbacks to the Great Lake 'fiasco'. Kye grabbed a mask and headed to the clearing.

"Hello... Professors," she greeted once she saw them. Kye had to do her best to stifle a laugh. Professors Myer and Noble were night and day, and that visual was almost expected... but seeing Professor Noble looking so serious with a bubblehead charm on was a fantastic sight! Would she really have to look at him like that the whole time? She just let the smile sit on her face before finding a vacant burner. Hi friends!


He waved at one of the last students to come in - Kye - and cleared his throat to quiet everyone down. “OKAY everyone, looks like it’s about time to get rolling.” He said loudly.

Class could start…………..NOW.


“As you all can SMELLLLLLL - “ He gestured at the large plant the desks all faced. “That plant right there is very stinky. VERY stinky...and this is because this is a very special flower indeed. It is...a CORPSE FLOWER plant. And our corpse flower is currently in bloom! Yaaaay lets clap! - “ Paul clapped a lot, hoping others would join. This is very special INDEEEEEEED and we should all be excited because corpse flowers are so! RARE!” he JUMPED to the middle of the room towards the flower, nearly dying at that very MOMENT because he tripped on someone’s bag strap. “I’m OKAAAY! But anyways--corpse flowers smell rottttttingly bad when they’re in bloom. I’ll ask you all this: WHY are corpse flowers so special? What do you all know about corpse flowers?”




OOC: HELLLLLO and welcome to the Herbo/Potions joint lesson! Class has officially begun! Please do not post your student arriving late if you do not want your character to face/deal with IC consequences. You’re welcome to, though, but you’re also welcome to post late and pretend you were here all along! Yay!

We’ll be moving on ...tomorrow some point? Possibly/probably? Let us seeee!

PS. Your charrie should have come prepared with a bag of their toenail clippings. Many of you brought them so yay! Just a heads up in case any of you all were confused! <3
