“Good afternoon, professor,’’ the Hufflepuff greeted quietly, his eyes fixed on the door behind the man. There seemed to be a lot of mystery floating about in the classroom presently. All will be revealed soon, right? Jude made his way to a mat somewhere in the middle of the bunch then sat, bringing his knees to his chest. He wrapped his arms around his knees as his attention went over to the glass walls. However, he wasn’t exactly seeing them. His thoughts had already drifted to the upcoming break.
Norman hadn’t been waiting long when Anders arrived. “Good afternoon, Mr. Anders,” he replied with a slight smile, his blue-green eyes following the boy to a mat. Was it just him or did this one seem a bit… distracted? Probably the upcoming holidays. He could somewhat relate. While he wasn’t much for holidays in general, he was looking forward to a quiet celebration with his daughter.

Why were adults like this??

But ANYWAY, since classes were still a reality, this third year was here. But the desks were not. Mats? Glass walls?? A mysterious door behind the professor???

Hmm. HMMM. Well, okay, maybe Lydia was a LITTLE curious. Maybe.

"Hi, Professor. I like the redecorating." Way more interesting than having desks. She took a seat on one of the mats, crossing her legs in front of her and hoping her friends would arrive soon.
The next arrival also got a smile from Norman. “Hello, Miss Clarke,” he greeted. “Thank you.” He supposed the room layout could be seen as a redecoration, though in this case, it was for function instead of aesthetics. He hoped Clarke would still like it after she heard its intended purpose.

However, needs must. "Hello, Professor Carton," she greeted her teacher, looking curiously at the door behind him but not quite daring to try the handle with the man standing right there. Instead she made her way to one of the mats on the far edge of the room, near enough for her to try to examine one of the glass walls from a distance.
Here was another student looking at the door behind him. Not that Norman minded at all; curiosity was normal. “Hello, Miss Blackthorne,” he replied with a slight smile and polite nod.


As the steady stream of students filing in stopped, Norman’s eyes flicked to his watch. !:00 on the dot, time to get started. He glanced toward the hallway, watching for any last-minute stragglers. When he saw none, he closed the door with a quick flick of his wand and turned to the class. “Let’s get started, shall we?” he said. “I expect we’re all looking forward to the holidays, but it’s very important that you pay attention in class today.” They’d find out why soon enough!

After allowing a moment or two for the students to focus on him, he continued, “Here’s a hypothetical question for you. You happen upon a sharp object. You have no idea how sharp it is or where it came from, so you’re not going to touch it. How might you use transfiguration to blunt it?”

OOC: Class has officially started. Feel free to jump in at any time. Just pretend as if your character has been here all along, unless you want IC consequences for a late arrival. We’ll move on in ABOUT 24 HOURS.
