| | |  Herbology Lesson One: Room for a New Arrival
Once again the room is filled with empty pots, soil, and replanting supplies. In addition are some over-crowded planters. In fact, much of the greenhouse seems to be crowded this time around, some pots holding fairly new plants. In the back of the room is a large empty bin marked "Compost."
Professor Carracio made his way around the room, checking the plants and somewhat looking like he was apologizing to them. Though all it was only the barest flicker in his eyes as he looked at each one. By the time he came back to the front of the classroom his expression was blank, and not a hint of emotion could be seen behind the midnight eyes. | |

Helena then looked straight into Professor Carracio's eyes, no sense of fear hinted. I'm obviously ill, in my opinion. Maybe I should leave, then? It was with great effort that she didn't roll her eyes at this extremely ignorant teacher. "If you wish to leave, you always may. However then I would be forced to take points from Slytherin. For leaving class, disrespecting the professor, and for not getting your work done, which I have not seen you do since being in here. In fact, I still owe you for your comments in the Great Hall earlier. However, you never want to force me to take points from Slytherin. If for no other reason than your house will most certainly punish you in ways that I cannot."

You are less likely to receive detention that way. And believe me, you do not want detention with me. I do not believe in common chores for detention."
Dominic nodded when the Professor explained all plants were to be kept here, where he would care for them. To be honest, the Hufflepuff was slightly disappointed and realized he would probably be spending much time down in the greenhouses to help care for the plants.
It took great strength for him not to roll his eyes at the Slytherin girl, whom he recognized vaguely. Trying to piece together where he might have seen her, he then realized it was her whom he met at the wand store. Given the same wand core as him, so the shopkeeper had said. Sighing quietly, he listened to the girl talk back to the Professor; she was asking for something alright - whether detention or point loss or both.
No common chores for detention? The professor was as harsh as his demeanor let on.

Camira was forcing herself to work on her plants and not say anything to the annoying girl arguing with Professor Carracio, but then she heard him mention that he would have to take points from Slytherin. No. They couldn't afford to lose more points. She'd lost 10, but she'd earned them back. They were still so far behind Gryffindor though.
She raised her hand. "Please sir, forgive me, but can't she just get a detention or something. We can't afford to lose anymore points."
She turned to the girl and gave her a glare that said she would be very sorry if she lost points. She was pretty sure her housemates would back her up.
She raised her hand again. "Professor, is there a minimum number of Cardia Roses needed for the Cardia Mythos to thrive?"

After listening to what the professor had told them, Christine decided to try to save as many of the plants as she possibly could. Christine rolled up the sleves on her robes so that they were above her elbow. She moved her pot closer to her and began replanting them. | |

"It must at least be surrounded on all sides by the roses. If you did things correctly, that should not be a problem." He looked about the classroom. "I'm sure you've all noticed the similar names. Can anyone guess at the meaning of Cardia?"

Dominic listened as the Professor spoke and then posed a question about the plant they were working with. Scratching his head thoughtfully, the fourth year hesitantly raised his hand. "Would Cardia have something to do with referring to the heart of the plant?"

"Sir? Cardia means heart in Greek; but it is also the name for a part of the stomach." Nicholai paused and examined the planter in front of him that he and Anna had been working on, "Though I'd say in the case of these plants, 'heart' is the right meaning."

Though the tone of her voice sounded sincere, her eyes said otherwise, as they remained icy blue. Freya forced herself not to look up. 'Great,' She thought to herself, 'We finally get ourselves out of the negatives and people still feel this behavior is necessary, completely avoidable too.' She kept herself occupied with her work, 'But I suppose I could have gotten myself into worse trouble than this is the board found out...oh well, whatever happens, happens. I'll just have to keep earning points then.' Freya sighed quietly to herself as she jotted down a few more notes into her book.

It was hard, since she had to be so careful. She didn't even wanna thing about what the professor would say if she broke a plant into two pieces. Still a bit unsure if she was doing the right thing, she looked at Shaylee once more. "You think we should do something else? I'm not sure about anything, just guessing." she added with a smile.

She was sure her mother had told her somthing... Wasn't it something about how alike some words from different languages were?? She hesitated, but decided to take a chance again, and with her hand in the air she said. "Does it mean something about the heart, professor?"

"It means the heart right?" Rachel answered. She knew this word from muggle biology class. Sometimes it's actually quite useful to be muggle born...

Astrid was sure that she knew the meaning of the word Cardia. She had remembered it from a poem that her grandmother used to read to her as a child. She raised her hand and said, "Professor, the word Cardia means heart."

Sarah's hand shot up into the air.
Great I'm going to look like an idiot for being so eager, she thought.
"Cardia means something to do with the heart,Sir" she said.
"Ummm I'm not sure if this has anything to do with the names,but.....As the plants can't survive without each other,or at least not be able to flower,are they so called because they are like the right and left sides of the heart? You need both to make it work?"
Sarah wasn't sure that made any sense...but asked anyway.
Biting her lip she waited for the reply.Probably to tell her she was stupid,and no thats not what it means.

Anna glanced around as several other students said just the answer she had been thinking of. Nevertheless, she raised her hand and added her input, as well. "Professor, cardia comes from the Greek work kardia, and it means heart," she said.

Freya was tempted to answer, she'd taken several years of anatomy as it is, but there were so many hands in the air already she thought against it. She looked through her notebook and began jotting down more information, smiling to herself at the thought of a cardiectomy she'd hoped to be helping with over the next break for medical and educational purposes.

Theo, standing, carefully balanced on his chair, attempted to bury the new plant. He had made a little hole with his hands, and put the roots in. Unfortunately he hadn't made a big enough hole, so it overspilled a bit. He pulled it back out again and made the hole slightly bigger. He smiled when it fitted perfectly. "I fink it looks pretty Sir," he smiled, wiping mud onto his face, as he itched his nose, "It doesn't look like normal plants. It looks small and special."

Freya giggled a little at the young boy sitting near her. He seemed very sweet.
Freya thought for a moment about the professor's question, she wasn't a genius when it came to plants, but she thought she might give it a shot, she raised her hand. "Would the plant be a vascular plant, Sir?" She said uncertainly, not very confident with her answer, but it was the best she could do at the time. It's not like the instructors take away points for being wrong, there was nothing to lose.
She looked back to her plants and began to make a large enough space for the newcomer.

Allie got a flower, then raised her hand. "Well, sir, by looking at it we know its defiantly a flower." Allie tried, not really knowing the answer to the question, but she hated not answering. So when in doubt, state the obvious. "And you know, of course, what you said, about the long ans slender leaves, no branches,and just stems."
Allie giggled a little but at her answer..it wasn't a very intelligent one.

Allie giggled a little but at her answer..it wasn't a very intelligent one. Freya leaned towards the girl, "Don't worry," she said very quietly, "It's about as good as my answer." Freya finished with a grin, this class was going to be a little tougher than she first thought, but no matter...at least it was getting interesting.

"At least your answer sounded like you knew what you were talking about." Allie whispered back. "Mine sounded like a total guess."

"Well, I know the basics I think." Freya said, still keeping quiet. "I'm Freya by the way, nice to meet you. And it wasn't completely terrible, at least you gave it a try, not sit in the shadows the entire time." She finished, going back to her plants and brushing off some dirt that had been clinging to her bandaged arms.
