Professor Virohsa nodded. "Very good! 4 pts for ravenclaw and 4 pts for Gryffindor. Any other ideas of dangerous qualities?", she asked the class. |

Professor Virohsa frowned. "Odors? Fly traps?", she said confused. She wasn't sure what they meant. She then looked at Prancie.. "Well, infect like how?", she said getting impatient. It seemed that some of the students were just repeating information. | |

"Some magical plants like the Whomping Willow are dangerous, ones that can effect you physically." Rosalie pointed out.

"Further more, as they have said, there are poisonous plants can effect you fatally. The mandrake’s cry can kill you. But if a plant can kill you, and a plant can do more than that. It can do many other things. Could magical plants possible cause you to go to sleep, act oddly, cause feelings of love or another such feeling?” Rosalie added after a moment.

She was having trouble thinking...why can't I concentrate? she thought. "Well, itching is not dangerous... But the cry of a Mandrake is. So 2 pts", she added. Quote:

"Ok, to continue with our lesson, we shall focus on bodily harm. Some of you have mentioned the whomping willow", she added. "Has anyone ever seen this tree? I expect some of you have already made the trip to look at this famous tree", she explained.
"Regardless of whether you have seen it, the next question centers around what makes a plant dangerous when they are known to inflict bodily harm", she asked the class.

Beaming at having earned four points, Rosalie started jotting down notes on her parchment.
Dangerous Plant Qualities- Poisonous (eat/touch)
- Violent
- Magical quality's (effect emotions or otherwise)
- Fatal noise (mandrake)
Listening to further questions, she started doodling on the edge of her paper. She started with an intricate design down one boarder of the paper. Lines twisted around one another, some spots looking like an ancient, forgotten language.
Along the top, she wrote her name, followed by Herbology notes: Survival of the Fittest. Each of the letters were in a fancy script involving flourishes, and small doodles of flowers, butterflies, and stars.
When another question was asked, Rosalie dropped her quill and looked up.
"A plant that is violent, such as the Whomping Willow, would be dangerous because of it's size, and density. If a Rose bush started to hit you, it would hurt certainly, but it couldn't break bones like the Willow could." Rosalie answered. "Other bushes could be dangerous if they could wrap vines around you and trap you." She answered.

Alicia looked at Rosalie, and started writing down some dot points, of plants she could think of, and why they were dangerous. She raised her hand and said "Devils Snare, because of it's size, and thickness, and it's fast moving, writhing 'arms'" as she called it. "Only if you wriggle, and strain in the plant, it will trap you tighter, but if you relax, it'll release you." she said.

Learning what to do to be safe", she added. "2 pts for that insight" Quote:

"Very well, we can proceed with today's plant. Some of you will have been aware of this plant. I suggest you all stay away from it. We will be taking a trip to the Greenhouse. So make sure to bring the following with you: Quill, Parchment, Wand, Gloves, and Eye Masks", she explained. "When you are ready, come to the front and wait until everyone is ready", she added. | |

Alicia gathered all her belongings, including the following the Professor had mentioned, and walked upto the professor, waiting. She felt proud of earning 4 points to Hufflepuff.
