You have arrived at the Quidditch for your Flying Lesson. You see several racks of school brooms lined up for the first year students. You, also, see a section of the stands that appear to have clipboards marking a section to sit in. McAiken is on sideline talking with an older group of students. He is dressed in flying robes and holding the newest model of the Firebolt line. You climb up into the stands and pick up one of the clipboard then sit down. Attached to the clipboard is several pieces of parchment and a muggle pencil, you realize McAiken means for you to use this to take your notes.

Phoebe calls happily to the proffesor, "Good morning Proffesor. How are you?" Then she spots him holding the newest Firebolt model "Wow, is that the newest model, cool" She smiles. Phoebe is unsure if she as a second year should be here but is very happy to. She writes her name at the top of the page and waits eagerly for what to do next.

Leeness · 08-14-2006, 10:02 AM

Lee walked to the flying pitch. Professor McAiken had asked him to help him guide the first years in flying and he had accepted. Due to the fact that the Professor gave him a responsibility he wanted to be early.

He saw the Professor already standing in the pitch when he arrived, "Hello there Professor McAiken, good to see you again. Your looking well."

:: Lauren walked onto the pitch and nodded to the proffessor smiling and than to Lee than to Pheobe. She stood among the older students and waited. ::

lavoni · 08-14-2006, 10:10 AM

Phoebe smiled at The other huffie girl as she did to her. As she was walking past her she asked. "Hi, Do you know if second years can be here?" She asked hoping the girl would know.

Wayfarer · 08-14-2006, 10:11 AM

"Ah, Lee, thank you for coming. I thought I would use a few older students to demo flying for the first and second year students." McAiken explained why he had asked him to the pitch.

La La · 08-14-2006, 10:15 AM

:: Lauren looked at the girl. " I would say yes but I wouldn't ask me ask the professor. " She did a quick scan smiling to her self that mostly huffies were here. ::

lavoni · 08-14-2006, 10:19 AM

"O.k thanks. So far just huffies." She thought aloud. "Hopefully we can get a few points" She smiled to Lauren. "how are you? I haven't seen you round much before." She said while she was waiting.

Wayfarer · 08-14-2006, 10:21 AM

"All first and second years, please take a sit in the stands. I have provided a means by which you can still take notes. If you are an older student you may watch and then join the open practice session that will follow the formal lesson. If you recieved an owl from me asking you the help with this lesson please prepare yourself to fly.

AJ had followed Phoebe and sat down next to her and another huffie girl, "hello," she said to the new girl, "Phoebe! hey how are ya?" she took a clipboard and wrote:

on the top of the page and waited for more things to take notes on.

lavoni · 08-14-2006, 10:29 AM

"I'm pretty good myself, you?" She asked AJ smiling back. "This looks like a good lesson don't you think?" Phoebe asked AJ having never experienced a lesson like this one.

Leeness · 08-14-2006, 10:30 AM

Lee nodded and smiled, "Sounds good. Flying was easy for me so hopefully I won't screw up in front of the younger ones," he laughed.

Siriana Red · 08-14-2006, 10:30 AM

Siriana climbed into the stands and grabbed a clipboard as instructed by Professor McAiken. She couldn't help but notice the muggle pencil attacked and thought Oh my! haven't seen this for quite some time and waited for more instuctions.

Pigwidgeon Took · 08-14-2006, 10:34 AM

AJ laughed, "ya i'm pretty good, this one looks good. it would be really funny tho if Lee crashed into something," she said upon hearing Lee's comment. AJ waved to a Ravenclaw girl who came up, "Hey, i've seen you around but i don't know you, i think," she said grinning and carefullly ignoreing that psycho Huffie boy who tried to kill her.

"always ready for a laugh" Phoebe smiled as she too heard lees comment. It was only now that she spotted James. "Hi james" Phoebe smiled as the 'physo huffie boy' sat down near them.

Aj nodded, "of course, i love laughing at people's pain... or misfortunes if they aren't hurt, you know, if they make a fool of themself too" she said grinning and remembered the huffie boy who made a huge drama out of himself coming in to a class late. AJ looked at who Pheobe was talking to, since she didn't know the psycho boy's name, and rolled her eyes and focused on McAiken and Lee again once she saw who it was. "so Phoebe did you get to try out for the team this year? i have, and i'm still hoping very much to make it." she said changing the subject.

Hermione_loves_Ron · 08-14-2006, 10:48 AM

Jamie waddled down towards the Quidditch Pitch with his broom in hand, hoping for a fly around it. He hadn't joined Quidditch this year, much rather preferring to focus on his studies this term around. However, as he got to the pitch, he found it seemed there was a class gathered about Professor McAiken.

He paused, silently observing from a distance, listening to the Professor. He was inviting the older (and granted, Jamie was only one year older and probably looked more like a mop of a first year) students to stay and watch and they could participate in the practice? Jamie folded his arms over his chest, waved to Lee and considered this option, standing back at a distance. Maybe McAiken could teach him something new.

Pigwidgeon Took · 08-14-2006, 10:54 AM

AJ laughed at smiled as she saw a boy, who looked her age, but was obviously older because he brought a broom with him, waddle, yes WADDLE, down to the pitch.. she supressed a giggle and turned to Phoebe for a conversation until the rest of the class assembled.

Turning back to AJ, Yeah, I tried out. I have practised over the summer as you knoe. I think I have improved a lot. Hopefull I will get on the team but there are some amzing players in hufflepuff" She said remembering the skills she saw.

Wayfarer · 08-14-2006, 10:56 AM

"Good morning class, today we're just going to cover a few points then we're going to the pitch and actually try to mount the broom and fly." McAiken explained. "I've provided you with parchment and muggle pencil. I hope all of you know how to use one. It's a bit difficult to use ink well and quills here so the pencils come in very handy. If you have a self inking quill you can of course use it but not many first and second years come prepared with those.

I hope you all have read the rules for my class that were included in the pack you found on your bed the night your arrived here. First and foremost you must follow my first request. Flying, while loads of fun, can be dangerous. I have no desire to fill out in triplicate accident reports today. So do try to follow the rules and come out of this lesson in one piece."

Pigwidgeon Took · 08-14-2006, 10:59 AM

AJ blushed a bit as McAiken said about the accident part, and remembered her breaking her leg last year on a broom, and shut up. she stopped talking and held her pencil, ready to write. at least they'd get SOME practice in this lesson.
