Maddox deliberatly wrote out the last two lessons larger then the others, so that some people in the room would realize what big git's they were being. Once he was finished, he placed the chalk on the professor's desk, and stalked back to his seat, glaring at Plymouth as he went. He needed a word with that specific git, and he would have it.
"Excellent, thank you, Maddox."

He had obviously fallen in with a bad crowd. Impulse seizing him, Tobi jumped up from his desk, sprinted to the backboard and modified Maddox's notes just a bit. (For Plymouth's benefit of course.)
He didn't pause to admire his work, he dashed back to his seat, it didn't seem wise to dance about. He would probably get in trouble without blowing raspberries at the professor. Though he briefly considered doing so in the direction of Plymouth.

If the seventh year could do it, he supposed he could too... And those boys were upsetting Celandine because it seemed that one of them wanted to have her... and the other had done something. He wasn't sure what...
"Mr. Professor Truebridge," he said quietly, standing and stepping forward. "May I?"
And, without waiting for confirmation, he took a bit of chalk, stepped up to the board, and underlined what he thought was the most important lesson to be taught up on there.
And then... he set down the chalk, smiled at the Professor, and silently returned to his seat.
Celandine was not a toy.
Ethan watched as Tobi and Raiden made additions, clearly indicating which lessons they thought were most important. Hmmm.
Well, Ethan had one that he thought was the most important lesson from the tale of the three brothers, and in particular a lesson that related to the elder wand.
He picked up the chalk and made an adjustment too.

Summary of the Lesson's in the tale of The three brothers
- Death is inevitable. You can try all sorts of tricks and traps, but in the end, death is going to be the victor.
- Bragging is bad. The brother with the wand bragged about it far too much, and he was killed.
- Don't fear death.- You can't bring people back from the dead, as much as you might want to.
- Don't get greedy. enjoy the time you have, and don't endeavour to extend it just because you're afraid of what comes next or just because you think it's possible to get it.
- Dont covet what you can't have.
- Quit while your ahead
- Nothing lasts forever
"Alright, if everyone ensures they copy down all the notes and I suppose its important that I tell you what your are to do for homework."
Ethan added the homework to the board:

"Alright, thank you. All of you did well today. Mostly." Ethan paused and shot a look between his dunced Ravies. "You may leave once you have copied down the notes and the homework. Copernicus and Plymouth, once everyone has left you will sit down at your desks."
Truebridge wondered if Plymouth was hearing any Cats.
