One might think that from her seat she might have a difficult time seeing clear across the pasture, but that wasn't at all the case. Paton had a perfectly clear view of each and every student as they made their way towards where this afternoons lesson was being held. Starting with one of the seventh years. "Hello Miss Thanatos," Hady greeted the Gryffindor with a smile. "Really? Are you sure? I could've sworn they were all wonderfully soft and comfortable when I set them out myself not too long ago..." No, she wasn't about to laugh and there wasn't at all a teasing gleam on her eye that was exactly like her youngest daughters.

Ah, the next to arrive was another seventh year. And a Gryffindor as well. "Hello there, Mister Ingebretson." Hady greeted him warmly taking notice that not only did he not comment on the texture of the beanbags or mats but how he chose to sit on the grass. Not that there was at all anything wrong with him doing so!

Now now, what was this? Hady knew how much Aryan normally looked forward to her lessons so to see him looking less than enthusiastic this afternoon was a bit curious. Everyone had the right to an off day or two here and there, however something really wasn't sitting well with her. It wasn't at all like him to sit how he was, clutching his bag in that way. Had he and Bry perhaps had an argument? Maybe he wasn't feeling well? Hady offered Ary a soft smile and a finger wiggle wave in return, her eyes silently asking if he was alright. Should he need anything at all, he knew he could come to her, yes?

These seventh years are coming in strong today! Hady knew once she saw a Thanatos she would be seeing those that usually stuck close with her. And she wasn't at all wrong. Each year they all proved how strong their bonds were. "Miss Armstrong, hello." Ah, and what's this? She's curious about the day's lesson is she? ”What makes you ask that?” Had she done something to suggest that was the topic of this afternoon's lesson? ”Should that be the subject for today? Who thinks we should learn about dragons today? Can I get a show of hands? Yup, she was asking the class! What did they think?

A fresh new face! Hadleigh loved seeing new faces and getting to know the new students just as much as she did all the returning ones. ”Good afternoon, Miss Masters,” Paton greeted warmly , her smile never wavering. It shouldn't take young Sydney very long at all to learn that this was the true Professor Paton. Always with a true smile on her face. If she wasn't genuine, then what sort of Professor would that make her?

”Hello, Miss Shenoy. No issues with the beanbag chair?” Hady asked, her tone mildly curious due to how several students before the young Slytherin had questioned them. She might just have to ask them all in a few minutes and see what they all thought as a whole.

Was it a new trend to be carrying their books in that way? Surely that couldn't have been enjoyable all the way across the grounds. Good for him for making the long walk and appearing to not have forgotten anything. ”Good day, Mister Adair.”

Having a silent arrival here or there wasn't at all unusual. Not everyone could be in the best mood all of the time. Or maybe they just didn't feel like talking. Whatever the reason, Paton didn't mind. A warm smile was sent Aurora’s way as she watched the Ravenclaw take a seat. Did she suspect a look of questioning curiosity or was it something else that had caught the teens attention?

Yet another face that would be graduating this year. How fast these students all grew up. ”Hello, Miss Dolph,” Hady greeted softly, holding back a laugh. ”Really? I set these out myself and they were all as soft as fleece. Did Maria see that playful twinkle in her eye?

The final student arrived right on time. ”Hello, Miss Montmorency. It really is, not too warm or too cold.” It wasn't raining either which was another huge plus in her book. This was the perfect weather to be having an outdoor lesson.

Hadleigh waited a few more minutes after the last student arrived before giving one single clap of her hands, swiveling her chair around to face them all. ”Good afternoon everyone, welcome to our first Care of Magical Creatures lesson of the year!” Who was excited? She was!

”As a few of you noticed, something is a little off with our beanbag chairs and mats this afternoon. If you could all take a second to run your hands over one now, you don't have to but if you do you'll understand what your peers are all talking about. This was a small hint towards today's lesson. This was where Hady stopped talking for a few moments to give them all a chance to touch a beanbag or mat if they chose. ”Cold, shiny and very strong. If you run your fingers over it just right it feels very scaly. And there was a reason for that.

Removing her wand from the holster on her wrist, Hady lightly tapped the white board beside her chair revealing many posters. Each one was the skeleton form of a different.. DRAGON! ”What we have here are pictures of dragons. Or.. rather their skeleton forms. Now this is just for fun and you can work together if you like, you can also get up and come closer to have a better look if you need to. I'd like you all to each write down on a sheet of parchment which poster belongs to which dragon. Are all the dragon breeds shown up on the board? And yes, you may use your textbooks.” She didn't expect them to be able to identify each dragon by its skeleton perfectly without any help at all. Though some of the students might not have any trouble with this.
