Don't they pull the carriages for the sixth and seventh year students at the beginning of school?" He had heard they were invisible creatures, so he had never seen one. Sylvie smiled. Yes, there were definitely moving in the right direction now. "Another great example, Eino. There are many creatures that are constantly around us, some we can see and others that we don't see all the time." Quote:

And stareeee. And not think. And especially not learn.
But this last statement sounded like it would be importantish. At least from what she'd heard. "Let's." the little girl answered. Let's talk about the... inhabitants of Hogwarts...? Yeah. Wait. "Like who, exactly?"
She was still not looking at the professor. But she was paying attention. Now. Sort of. Heh. Looking at the young eagle, she sighed. "Well, who would you like to talk about? Haven't you wondered about maybe the ghosts that wander about the castle?" Quote:

"Well, i have always found him to be nice and trusting myself. But trust is something earned and I would like to think I have earned that." Quote:

So she kept the idea to herself. "Well, aside from Bartholomew, there are also merpeople down there, and there are house elves down at the kitchen, and ghosts...everywhere." Cass answered. There were also creatures at the forbidden forest and stuff, but she wasn't particularly close to them.... "Very good examples, Cass." Quote:

The Gorilla up in the common room! That one that tried to eat my banana costume..." Jacob was sane... he was sane! "It's been mocking me. They've said I'm crazy, but I'm not crazy! I'm NOT!"
See! Jacobs not crazy! She's seen it. 'I'm Not Crazy, I'm Not Crazy, I'm Not Crazy.'
Jacob curled back up into a feeble position. Again the outburst from the eagle caused her to look at him rather strangely. Maybe being so far up in the towers were starting to affect their young minds. "Jacob I am not sure what you speak of. I've never been up in the tower for that matter. But if you say you saw something, i can only take your word for it. have you spoken to your Head of House about said gorilla?" Quote:

Which is what she did now. Leaning her head back, the Slytherin first got used to the sun in her eyes before searching for said cloud. Mwaha! It was better then talking about talking to giant squids or trees.
Because everyone knew you could hear trees speak as the wind rushed through their rustling branches and leaves. *snort*
Evelyn pretty much spaced out and was staring into the sky still, looking for that certain cloud.
That is, until a certain question came up. Oh...OH! Pfft, forget about the house elves and merpeople. Really, who cared about THEM? "Yes, lets talk about the inhabitants." Smiling, her head turned to her she-snake friends and her other favorite Gryffindor. "I vote we talk about the professors. Such strange creatures."
Teehee. Or the Ravenclaw students. Some of them were quite questionable. How did that kid make it into that house anyways? Looking to the she-snakes, Sylvie raised a brow. This really wasn't the direction she had wanted the lesson to go. "I don't think is the time or place to really be talking about the professors. I really was thinking about maybe the ghosts and other beings around the castle." Quote:

I would love to see the way others veiw Hogwarts" She rplied to the teacher she was very intrested knowing the way the ghost and other creatures think of hogwarts accomidations. Finally, another student that was getting the jest of what she was trying to lead the class. "Very good point. In fact, do keep this point in mind. I just might ask you all more about this later."

Just saying. "Again, I don't really believe this is the time or place for such discussions. I'm sure Professor Zookara wouldn't be amused that we are talking about this."
Yes, this lesson was leading away from what she intended. Quote:

But then again if there's a giant squid just waiting for clumsy flyers at the bottom of the lake....
He winced upon hearing Fletcher's reply Compliment the giant squid to be treated well in return? Like what was he supposed to say? 'Hey Barty you're quite a dish?'
Then the discussion went for a more interesting turn-- Hogwarts inhabitants-- specifically Professors. The Slytherin lad had to smirked at what Evelyn started, then heard one of the blonds sitting with Fletcher ask about the Muggle Studdies Professor. Well now if he's fair game... "How about you Professor Welton..." the Slytherin lad started, slyly glancing at her fingers quickly for a certain trinket that he hoped wouldnt be there "... any Significant Others?"yes he had to ask, for the sake of the menfolk at this school! Again, she shook her head and slightly crossed her arms before her. "I really don't feel this information is relevant to the lesson. My personal life is my own history and I highly doubt you would be interested it."
Really, why the sudden interest in all the professors? She was a bit baffled now. Quote:

They were talking about the professors? That was wierd, but then they were an inhabitant of the castle. Now he was tempted to join in, (Because he was rather cheeky) but he had a feeling Lexi might slap him or something if he did that, so he decided to put a bit more of an intellectual point across. "Ghosts inhabit the castle don't they?" He was pretty certain because he had seen one of them.... "Very good, ghosts do inhabit the castle and we see a lot of them from time to time." Quote:

Bartholomew???
Aaron shot his hand strait up. "Professor, I met him my first year. And by met him, I mean I swam out to him and he picked me up.... Aaron looked around to the other students. "Come on, doesn't anybody remember the floods? Bartholomew knew how to stop them... And me and my friends found out from him..." Yikes, bad memories went into Aaron's head. Bad... wet... Memories. "Yes, the flood. I was really hoping someone remember that. I wasn't present, but I'm sure that it left an impression on the students." Quote:

While researching the Triwizard Tournament, Fletcher had come across a source that said the Durmstrang students had entered Hogwarts by appearing from under the lake inside a giant sailing ship. It was hard to believe but just slightly probable. And now Fletcher was curious...... curious to see if Professor Welton knew the answer.
He was momentarily distracted from his question regarding the giant squid's dietary habits, however, by the professor's query and one of the She-Snakes' responses.
"Pssssh forget Zookara," Fletcher rolled his eyes at Neptune and itched at his pink-frosted nose with one hand. Why was it so itchy? It was like there was something there he couldn't see... but since he couldn't see it and didn't care enough, the frosting remained firmly fixated to his face.
"What I wanna know is, has anyone else seen the love triangle between three of Hogwarts' inhabitants?" He raised his brows and glanced around the class picnic. "You know who I'm talking about. Professor Dodson, Professor Carlton, and Professor Lafay. Or it could be a rectangle, if you throw in Brielle."
Oooh la la, the geometry of love. Fletcher just wanted to know if he could narrow the love triangle or whatever down to a love circle, between just himself and Carlton. He hated the color pink but her highlights were one HAWT exception. "Well, the last time I checked the lake was full of things that Bartholomew could eat but I don't think he is the type to eat merepeople."
Of course it was very possible, she would probably have to look into it for maybe even talk to Maya about it. "You know, I do believe the lake would be connected to the ocean in some way. I haven't been to the other side of the lake, but one would think there was a river or stream that would feed the lake and all."
Again with the talk of professors and love triangles and polygons. "Really class, we shouldn't be talking about such things. You wouldn't want the professors to speak of you and your relationships, would you? I say we stop this now and more on." Quote:

Inhabitants of Hogwarts? Well they were all inhabitants of Hogwarts yeah? "Let's talk about me! I enjoy food!" Patroclus joked, a laugh acting as a fullstop, "Now your go, Evelyn, talk about how great I am? Then Destiny you follow, and Marie you sum up!" With this subject matter, they were all bound to get A+'s
Listening to the others around him, whilst waiting for Evelyn to discuss how attractive and brainy he was, Patroclus over heard the Hufflepuff Champion talking about Professor Dodson, his Head of House; Professor Carlton, as well as Lafay and the sexy french girl! Love Rectangle? Patroclus questioned to the girls, we shall discuss that.....after we discuss me. Discuss!" Again, she shook her head and waved her hand over her basket. The lid of it closed as all the other picnic baskets followed in succession. "Class, I really think this lesson is going nowhere. Perhaps, I should just give out the homework and let you loose to wander about." |
