You climb into the classroom, and once again it is completely different from the original design. However, you let out a sigh of relief when you note that there are no laboratory tables, no jars containing anything that looked like organs. Instead, the floor was covered in what looked like soft grass, the walls seemed to be creeping with ivy and instead of beanbags or pouffes, and there were tree-stumps for you to sit on if you didn’t feel like sitting on the grass. The air was scented with something you could not identify…rather like being in a greenhouse filled with blooming flowers.

Professor Blaylock is sitting in the centre of the circular room, on the floor - Indian style, a wreath of purple hyacinth in her hair. “Come in, and sit in a circle around me.” She says as you all enter.

OOC: Think Firenze's classroom. And also, keep the chatter to the barest minimum!

Ringo sauntered into the classroom, vaguely. The half elf obliged the professor because he was too tired to think of an excuse not to listen to her. Last night had been a killer.

Kennedy approached the Divination classroom anxious for what she would find when she opened the door. Upon entering, she certainly wasn't let down. The room was beautiful and smelled amazing. She saw Professor Blaylock in the center of the "room," if you could call it that because it certainly didn't look like any room Kennedy had ever been in, and greeted her sweetly, "Hello Professor! I did some thinking about those clues you gave me and by the looks of things, I am pretty sure I figured it out!" She winked with a grin. Slung over Kennedy's shoulder was her turquiose satin tote bag, within which was a small blanket that she had used earlier that day as she sat by the lake. She removed the small square blanket from her tote and laid it across the grass. She took a seat directly across from Professor Blaylock and rested her tote down next to her. She took out some parchment and a quill but realized she didn't have a hard surface to write on. She thought about using a stump but realized that someone might choose to sit there, she opted not to. She asked, "Professor, do you have a spare book or hard surface I could use to take notes?"

Ariana came walking in, smiling happily for the first time in weeks actually. Her life was finally sortng itself out and she was finally feeling appreciated and welcome here. She noticed the classroom had changed since she had last been in there, and honestly liked it, it was almost peaceful. She took a breath, breathing in deeply and smiled more it was very nice fragrence but she couldn't tell where it came from. Nodding to Professor Baylock, she sat, her legs crossed beneith her and waited for the others to arrive so they could start.

Eliza walked into the classroom of her favourite subject,she smiled as she noticed the design of the room."Lovely design,Professor!Maybe I should design my bedroom like this!"she laughed at the thought and took a seat beside the Professor in the circle.She loved Divination and divination LOVED her!!

Natasha gave a small serene smile to the students, the fragrance was really good in here, she thought...perhaps I'll keep my office stocked with plants all the time. "Ah, Kennedy, we shall see, shan't we?" she said, giving a little wink to the young Ravenclaw.

"Well, Eliza, mayhaps your parents would not enjoy having their house overgrown with ivy, but I quite like this myself." She said in reply to the young Gryffindor.

Molly entered the classroom and took a seat on a small stump towards the center of the room. She wanted to make sure she had a good view without being too close to the professor. "Good day to you Professor. I hope you are doing well" she said as she sat her books on the grass next to the stump.

Rockywizardia · 03-31-2007, 03:07 PM

He glared over at Eliza, nastily. Suck up... he thought, crossing his arms. Divination was among one of his least favorite classes. Mainly because he couldn't understand it at all.

Brooke came into the classroom and looked around for a moment. It was very different this time. She turned to where everyone else was and sat down in the circle as far away from Eliza as possible.

Rachel walked into the classroom and stood still taking in the 'ivy look'. After a few moments she walked over to where the other students were sat and dropped her bag to the floor and sat down.

Nabs · 03-31-2007, 03:21 PM

Natasha gave up her indian-style position and reclined on the grassy floor instead. "I'm fine, thank you." she said to the Hufflepuff, "Why dont you all come in closer? It's quite difficult for me to conduct a lesson with you spread around the clearing, now." She said, noticing the little cliques forming.

OOC: We'll wait for a few more people.

bitsyandtank · 03-31-2007, 03:25 PM

Molly gathered her books to move closer like the professor requested. She didn’t like being right in front for fear she would be called upon to answer a question she didn’t know the answer to. But, her desire to do well for her house outweighed the fear she had, so she reluctantly did as she was told.

Celestina climbed up the ladder slowly. She had woken up quite moody and most likely would remain that way for the rest of the day. No one had ever said she was sweet. Well, yes there was that time Moretti called her sweet but he didn't think count for he knew not what he was saying, ever. When she finally entered the room, her jaw dropped slightly. Well, this was more than she had ever expected from Professor Red Liver--I mean Blaylock.

Climbing up and dusting herself off not before adjusting her skirt and casting a disapproving glance at any boy in the vicinity who had dared have a little inappropriate look. She walked calmly towards a tree stump near to the Professor and smiled at her genuinely.

"I must say this is quite impressive," she commented to the Professor. "Oh-Good day!"

The girl had nearly forgotten to be polite. Her mother would be ashamed.

Golden Monkey · 03-31-2007, 03:29 PM

Ariana stood and moved closer towards professor Blaylock, sitting down again on the grass. Placing her bag beside her she took out her notes again and prepared herself. She just hoped she could do this lesson with no difficulties. Stretching out her right leg, she sighed, hoping the feel of the grass would help. I shouldn't have tripped over her bedding this morning she thought to herself and hoped her knee would be okay; it didn't hurt but she coudn't count on it not hurting the rest of the day, some good rest for it was all she needed.

Nabs · 03-31-2007, 03:30 PM

Natasha grinned up at the fiesty young Gryffindor and patted the ground beside her, "Thank you, Celestina." she turned to the class and gave them a conspiratorial wink, "I admit I stayed up half the night trying to pull this off."

Ama · 03-31-2007, 03:38 PM

Scooting over from the stump to the piece of ground the Professor had patted, Celestina took a seat besides Blaylock without thinking it any further. Bucky chuckled at Blaylock. She sure tried a lot. To do everything!

"Well, it turned out nice," she said prodding the grass with her finger. "Is it real grass? My! I could have never managed it. I would have ended up blowing half of the school."

Bucky needed to work on her Charms. She knew it. Everyone knew it. They just didn't state it out loud.

Radcliffe's lil angel · 03-31-2007, 03:41 PM

Em walked in and sat down as the proffessor said

Eliza smiled at the Professor "You have good taste!" she said politely.

Eliza began to feel a bit upset as Ringo glared at her and Brooke came in,was it something about her that made people hate her?The thought wouldn't leave her mind,she couldn't help herself think that but then she remembered Luna and Elijah and the thought was swept from her mind.Elijah was her boyfriend and Luna was her friend,they didn't hate her.

Hayley climbed into the classroom, although it looked nothing like a classroom. She noticed all the students sitting in a circle around Professor Blaylock.
Hayley found a space of grass around the circle of students and sat there silently.

Nabs · 03-31-2007, 03:44 PM

"Yes, it is real grass...It took me a while to do it, was actually tempted to just lay down a fuzzy green carpet and hope you all wouldn't notice." Blaylock said, laughing.

She sat up a little straighter and looked around at the class, "Well, good morning, everyone and welcome to yet another one of my Experimental Divination Methods lesson."

She waved one hand to gesture towards the altered classroom, "Can anyone take a guess at what we'll be experimenting on today?"
