| | |  HoM Lesson 1.
Lainey took a deep, appreciative breath as she entered her long abandoned classroom. It was a little musty and a few more spiders than usual, but still the same on the whole.
Lainey had to stoop as she entered. Today, she was dressed like a muggle witch. Her hat protruded high above her head. She thought she looked rather spiffing, really. And when she looked spiffy, she liked for all her students to look spiffy too. That'd come later though.
For now, Lainey took her usual post by the door and awaited her class. She wondered if any of them would come... considering she'd only just got back..
Read below to see why we're wearing witch's hat. But, if you'd like your own.. 
There you go! Wear it with pride! | |

"A hedgehog, a jarvey, five snakes and a spider!" Tag said suddenly without thinking. He tugged at the hat, pursed his lips into a whistle, and quickly looked at the opposite wall.

It was one of his rude days, but he did rather look adorable with that hat on his head. She chuckled, then turned to face the teacher again. If Kingston would rather be mean, then he could very well expect her to be nice to him another day.
"Perhaps they were used to pick out the witches. I mean, to embarass certain women by putting such obvious and stand out hats on their hands to make it clear they weren't a part of the usual community," she shrugged slightly once she had raised her hand.
She giggled at Christian's poke. "Or that, it's rather effective," she added with a laugh. But, if he poked her, he'd get pocked back... or smacked, same thing. Everyone knew that already. "Although, if people poked a lot of other people, perhaps they'd get bruises, like this," she began innocently before she wacked Christian's shins. She had hit hard enough to bruise, just playful enough to get her point across. WHACK.
Christian grabbed his shin in pain. "Ow, ow, ow, ow..." He said hopping up in down. "I think she's got a point with the bruising thing." He said observing the spot where she had smacked him. He turned his attention back to Kingston. Quote:

Although, his eyes widened with shock as the boy shoved the hat on his head. "Bloo--What are you doing?!" He growled, placing his hands on the hat, ready to take it off.
PULL.
Why wasn't this working?!
PULL!
Dear god, no.
PULL!
Oh no.
"What have you done?!" He growled, having the urge to jump at the boy and hit him. Though he must keep his cool down. Yes.
And breatheeeeeeee.
OCC: BEDFORME.<3 "I may have...you know...glued the hat to your head." He said still hopping in pain. "It looks really good on you you know." He said smiling amusedly at the sight of the boy trying to keep his temper under control. "You really shouldn't keep the anger in Kingston. Makes your rich face look ugly fast." He said hopping backwards away from Kingston. This was going to be an interesting year. Quote:

What sort of things could you hide under your hat?"
Christian, still holding on to his shin smiled happily at the professor as she laughed at his answer. At least one thing was going right and wouldn't result in undeniable pain. "Don't do what in your class Miss? The poking?" He pointed at Lindsey. "Or the glueing?" He said guiltily as he pointed at the struggling Kingston.
"Perhaps you could hide prized possession or pets who like to run away all the time." He said looking back at Shadow the kitten who was trying to make a daring escape, having all ready succeeded from getting out of the bag. "Hmm...let's try it." He picked up the kitten up placed him underneath the hat. Christian replaced the hat on top and all that could be seen was a little black tail, protruding out of the hat, that swatted Christian lightly on the side of the face.

Kim smiled "well of course you could hide your hair if you're having a bad hair day, but you could also tuck parchment up there-any school supplies really and perhaps even a potion if you have need for hiding one".

The school skirt sadly didn't offer much coverage. Frowning at Tag's hair and hat Bucky sniffed. It would explain why it looked like his hair had been ransacked by a bunch of pirate fleas.
Pillage and Burn! Pillage and Burn! They'd ordered in their shrieky flea voices.
Bucky chuckled. | |

"Maybe you could hide your wand so muggles wouldn't see it if they looked at you..." Even though Seth said it out loud, he was almost just talking to himself.

"A traffic cone!" Cassandra said. "It would serve dual purpose... it's intended one, and keeping the hat's shape!" She said proudly.

Ellie looked at Willow with a shy smile, she was feeling bad for leaving her on the Revanclaws table yesterday.

Astral laughed at Camira, she looked so uncomfortable in her hat.
"I'm not sure professor, but I know the muggles have dunce caps in a very similar shape, and muggles assosiate princesses with a pink version with a scarf. Maybe it has something to do with authority? The higher your hat the better you are?" she giggled. it was a silly answer, but at least she had contributed."

Monica smiled and raised her hand. "Professor, couldn't a dark witch or wizard hide a Dark object inside one?" She asked cautiously, as she leaned against her cousin Excelsior.

Astral listened to some of the other answers. Hiding sweets in your hat seemed like a good idea, and she thought of the bag of chocolate frogs in her colourful over the shoulder carry all.
Out of the corner of her eye Astral saw some girls who might have been about her age passing notes to one another. She wished some of her friends were there. Camira was ignoring her.

Excelsior smiled, his cousin Monica had just entered the room and was sitting next to him. He mouthed the words "Hi Monica" to her. The students had lots of suggestions, that was for sure. He was trying to write them all down. | |

"Yes, exactly. Especially if you needed to keep communications open. I've seen Aurors do that with well trained owls."

Lainey smiled and continued on.
"I am suitably pleased with all of your answers. Honestly, I don't think I could ask for a brighter, more creative group of students. But, let's strain those brains.. one last time for this lesson. We started off with why we thought pointy hats are associated with our kind. Then, we've spent most of our time coming up with uses for these hats. Now that we've spent time really dissecting the uses of these hats - can you think of a better reason of why a tall, pointy black hat is associated to witches and wizards? I'll award points for your well thought out answers." | |

Camira looked around the room, finally. She had been trying to write down what everyone had been saying. She looked around and saw Astral and Excelsior, separately of course. She waved at both of them.

Excelsior thought about that for a moment. "I think it could signify that they hold important ranks, like being a high priest or priestess of a group. It shows that there is power associated with them. Not just an ordinary person, but someone who's special."
Excelsior waved at Camira and whispered to Monica, "We'll take care of that problem we were talking about later." | |
