Yes, it was quickly approaching the end of the lesson.

"This will be a quick question, I promise. In honour of our visiting guests, each team will take the view of a school. As we discussed earlier, where you are from will affect how you might view something. The same goes to where you get your education. As I mentioned before, the lessons I was t taught here differed from those I was taught whilst I was at the American Academy. But history is history and you can't change how it happened, but you can change how you are taught it. For example, do you think wars here are taught with the same vigour overseas, where they don't directly affect those it's being taught to?" History of the world can be taught all over, but if it held no meaning, it wouldn't truly have an effect on people.

"Team Green will be the Durmstrang Institute. Team White will have Hogwarts. Team Purple is the Beauxbatons Academy of Magic. Now, here is the event I want you to discuss. The Tri-wizard Tournament. It has been held between the three schools for sometime before it was stopped. When it was brought back, Hogwarts played home to it. Now thinking about each school and their views, how do you think each school felt about it taking place here?"
Leaning back in his seat, Salander gave the Professor a half-smile. White Team is not doing bad at all. It wasnt everyday that Salander would find himself in the company of people who were hilarious and smart. Or just smart period.

Silently he breathed a sigh of relief when White Team was assigned to represent Hogwarts' POV. Salander speaking in behalf of the Durmstrang perspective would probably not be the best thing, anybody at the Slytherin Table's Opening Feast would tell them that.


SPOILER!!: The White Wizards... and Witches :)

If I'm not mistaken that Hogwarts has been chosen as the host of The Triwizard Tournament at 1994 and Cedric Diggory was killed that day." she said. "And as Hogwarts students I felt honored and afraid at the same times. Honored because Hogwarts was being chosen again as a host to this tournament and afraid if something like in 1994 Triwizard Tournament happen again." she added then she looked back to her parchment

Dianna said as she lowered her hand.
She faced her group mates. So..
"I guess Hogwarts and it's students felt glad because..because it is our school representing the home of the tournament.." she said. Just a suggestion..

"Well." she repositioned herself, "I think ANY school would be honored to host. I mean... it's a legendary event. Many people have died when it was hosted at other schools as well. It's just hands down cool."

All this Harry Potter stuff. It's disgusting.

Before this guy the grilled cheese guy said something about Michael Jackson too. "But I must admit Volde-Jackson?That was hilarious. I could see now that the Dark Lord and Michael Jackson are spinning in their grave." she laughed.

He raised a brow at the next question, about the Triwizard Tournament.... in which he was a Champion. Gulp. The grilled cheese sandwich in his hand suddenly didn't taste so good.

SPOILER!!: Team White Answers





"Yeahhhh.... I agree," Fletcher said, glancing down at his sandwich with a frown. "Hogwarts was probably pretty pumped, just like we are this time around. But I bet we had to give concessions to the other schools since we got to host it....."

And that girl who'd said only seventh years could enter.... yeah, she was wrong. GULP. He nodded at Rae, not really wanting to say anything.

She could be wrong, but she figured that was probably what the girl had meant. After all, this Fletcher guy was a sixth year, wasn't he?
Thinking more about the question at hand, she said, "You know, I think I'd be excited no matter where the tournament was being hosted if I was participating. But of course, I'd be super proud for it to be held at my school. It's quite an honor, isn't it? And it's also cool because the Hogwarts students who aren't champions can still watch and support their classmates. I think overall, Hogwarts is really excited to be holding the tournament. I know I'm excited to be a part of everything happening, however indirectly."

Her eyes narrowed at Eavesdropper. She always had to be around didn't she? Listening to what Rae was saying. No, Rae had not gotten over the time that Eavesdropper was SPYING in the pathways, destined to destroy Rae's plans.

She looked over at Fletcher, "Congrats on that by the way." Rae said as she smiled at him. Never having thought about Fletcher being champion before, Rae thought of it now... Didn't people... Die? Her facial expression changed with her thoughts, once more she looked at Fletcher, this time she looked worried..


His attention shifted between the members of his group as a spoke. Volde-Jackson? He leaned his head towards Fletcher's direction and chuckled "Dude, maybe the first Tournament Challenge would be-- y'all will be doing the Moonwalk while singing 'Smooth Criminal'. In A ccapella. "

Leaning forward he tossed in his two bits "Well, its easy to say that Hogwarts will be a very proud host school --- I mean just look at how it is now, all the effort of setting up the school and accommodating the guests..." although Salander kinda wished they didnt have to accommodate a particular guest, or maybe just have that hulk bunk away from the Slytherins, preferably somewhere where he has to climb all seven floors of the castle ".... but then you gotta think that not everybody is all happy-pappy with this. Say for example, what do the house elves really feel about all the extra people they have to support? 'Pretty sure some of the guests would have special requests. The house elves has to support that on top of what they're already doing. Or what about the Hogwarts accountant? I'm sure that person is just thrilled having to scribble down all those extra numbers on the expense account. Or what about the Headmaster? I mean we can see that he's real proud of Hogwarts hosting, but just think that he's responsible for everybody-- foreign guests included. Is he really happy having to worry if the guests are feeling comfortable in the castle? If they like the food? If they feel too warm, cold, tired, bored?.... What does he really feel about the possibility that any one of us could get hurt during the Tournament season? "
