"Wow.." Jan uttered as he stared at the fortress. That was impressive charm work as he fought the urge to smirk. "Hello, Professor." He said waving before taking in the sight while he waited on the lesson to begin.
Yes, indeed that letter contained great news. But it didn’t end there as there was still one more surprise left to let Jansher and Idris in on. All in due time, of course. “Mr. Grunt.” The warm smile was in place still. “You’ll be allowed to enter shortly.” It was just the theoretical part of the lesson needed to be dealt with first. SPOILER!!: Beauden! <3 Quote:

He walked a bit faster, the eerily lilting tune echoing in his ears, piquing his interest further. That song – diddle-dee-dee, diddle-dee-doe – sent a chill up his spine, but it nonetheless felt like an invitation he, for some reason, couldn't ignore.
As he approached, he took a moment to size up the professor, who was waiting at the foot of the fortress, radiating that usual calm, cool energy. Beauden couldn't help but flash a grin at the professor's sunglasses and relaxed stance. He figured there must be some reason behind this fortress setup, and the song only deepened the intrigue.
"Good morning, Professor. Love what you did with the place."
The sixth year made his way over to one of the tree stumps, dropping onto it with a thud. Unable to resist the urge, he continued to glance back at the fortress every few seconds. Was it just him, or was there something up there? Beauden leaned forward, arms resting on his knees, his gaze remaining at the window. The eerie lyrics of the song swirled in his mind. Into twilight, into gloom, sing the sound of dawdling doom, follow us...
It became obvious to Dhruv almost immediately of Beauden’s arrival just how curious the Gryffindor was about the fortress. It was true that the Hut wasn’t usually transformed for lessons but they liked to switch things up at times; it helped to keep the students interested in the lessons. Beauden’s curiosity and reaction to the song was exactly the sort of reaction Dhruv had been going for. “Good morning, Mr. Wild. Why, thank you. You’ll be able to do some exploration of the fortress soon enough.” SPOILER!!: Bry! <3 Quote:

It was so cool looking! Upon seeing it, not that it could be missed, Bryony easily quickened her pace wanting to get there more sooner so she could have a better look.
Not only did she get that better look as she reached Professor Khanna and the other students, hiya everyone!.. but.. what was that? That tune. She was sure she had heard it before. Blue eyes gave the Professor a very curious look along with her usual wiggle fingers. "Hello Professor, some creepy music you have playing today.. is it a hint?" Cause if it was she needed to think harder.
The fourth year found an empty tree stump and sat down near Jansher and Beauden. Her gaze was still fixed on the fortress and the possibilities of what could be inside.
And there was the inseparable pair of Bryony and Aryan. Dhruv greeted them both by wiggling their fingers back at the two. “It most certainly is a hint. Maybe you’ll figure it out soon.” They grinned and watched the Slytherins take seats, Ary taking on beside Jan with Bry on his other side.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * “Welcome to another DADA lesson, everyone! Based on observations, I see many of you are rather curious about what the fortress holds. Not to worry, all will be revealed shortly.” Dhruv stepped away from the board, moving closer to the seated students instead. They stuck their hands in their trouser pockets, maintaining that calm and composed persona the students should be used to by now. “The song, as Ms. Paton mentioned earlier, is a clue to what today’s topic is, a clue to which creature awaits you in the fortress.” Not to worry though! There was no real danger from said creatures as Dhruv had seen to that with meticulous care. “Has anyone deduced which creature the song alludes to? If not, you may take your best educated guess.” OOC: Hi, lovelies! Thank you for joining the lesson! <3 Instructions are quite straight forward but if you have anything you need clarification with, go ahead and give me a nudge! The next question will be posted in about 24 hours!
PS: since the lesson has officially started, there should be no posts of a character’s arrival, unless you want to face IC consequences  |
