William wanted to help, he really realllllly did but it always seemed like he was the LAST one to do ANYTHING. How was he to be good at anything if he kept missing the fun stuff? He pouted instead, and began helping to move the tables and chairs around, his once good mood instantly vanished. The only good thing was professor Bunbury was free, which meant he didn't risk hurting her if his spell had missed ... if he even got a chance at doing it again.

Sighing, he moved a few chairs and tables to the walls and stopped, sitting down blinking normally. He twirled his wand, muttering the spell under his breath and looked up expectantly. At least he hadn't gone and lost more points.

That was a good thing...right?

Now move the furniture because crazy woman is unstuck, thought Barry to himself and drawing his wand he muttured "Wingardium Leviosa" and moved a desk very carefully out of the way. And then on to the rest of it.

"Whoaaa whoa whoa, no touchy," Annie jumped like a deer in headlights when Jack tried grabbing her arms. She then blink, blink blinked at him when he tried using her first name.

"Nuuuuuh, nobody calls me that," she mumbled, really disturbed by this boy now. "Gerroffme."

Without further ado, the tall redhead climbed up onto Ashby's desk and planted herself there, hugging her knees to her chest and staring Jack down like he was some terminator from the future, come to destroy all her gluey fun.

Jake laughed as Professor Bunbury said the spell he'd suggested at the beginning of the lesson. "She said it, Professor," he smiled to Ashby, strangely amused. "Geroffmee..."

But now it seemed as though he couldn't help out, seeing as Bunbuns was already down and all. "Do we... erm... what now?" Jake asked, remembering something about the furniture.

Jack blinked at the same time as her "Sorry" he muttered before letting her go "Professor... I'm not trying to hurt you" Jack looked into her eyes, staring back, he wasn't intimidated "I'm trying to help you" he smiled and held his hand out to help her off the desk.

This was becoming a very sticky situation. Ludo's thoughts from Herbology class that something was different about Professor Bunbury were now confirmed. She was okay with getting covered in glue?

After both Professors were unstuck from the wall with some contribution from himself, Ludo waited as Ashby scolded several students. Surely there'd be another practical after this one...

Tobi watched the scene with mild, ironic amusement.

Good luck kid, she's going to be after you for trying to proposition her inappropriately. he thought. If Professor Ashby isn't concerned, neither am I.

Tobi was going to leave well enough alone on this one. He'd been hit with the proverbial rolled up newspaper regarding Professor BananasBunbunz, he was going to keep his distance.

Despite how young, teenage-like Professor Bunbury was acting, Dominic couldn't deny that the whole situation was amusing. Especially with Kayla and her nonchalantness regarding helping the other students get the professors off the wall and gain practice. Oh she was the clever one, as evil as she was one. He wasn't going to deny that either.

But then a Gryffindor boy decided to have a go at Winters. As much as he despised his fellow prefect, he still would stand up for her. Well if by standing up, it meant he wouldn't do anything back to her at this moment nor stand behind the boy. Thankfully though, Ashby was off the wall and handled the situation - even if unfortunately meant loss of points for Hufflepuff because Winters had stuck Cel-an-dine to the wall.

But the three people were off and now it was time to wait and see what the Charms professor had planned. For whatever it was, it was sure to be sticky. And so long as it didn't involve the sticky wet mess on him, then all would be well. It was bad enough having to scourgify his robes.

Oh my...
"Yes Professor it does..." And I think you have been sniffing wayyyy too much of it! Of course Sarah didn't say that last bit out loud in case Bunbury remembered she was a teacher and took points for cheekiness.
Sarah watched as her spell hit and finally released the stuck adult from her position on the wall...where she fell onto a fellow Huffie. Ooooh that's gonna hurt, she winced.
Standing with her wand limp by her side,Sarah continued eyeing Professor Bunbury with suspicion.What on earth had got into her? Why was she acting like a child?
Suddenly the woman ran over to Ashby's desk and sat on it,seemingly afraid of Jack Mosier.
Maybe I'm dreaming,I am tired after all.That's it.This is some kind of wacked out hallucination and any minute I will wake up to find myself in bed,snug under the covers.
Please....
Whether it was a dream or not Sarah decided it was best to follow instructions and proceeded to do as Professor Ashby has asked of them.Move furniture was it...?

No sooner had Anna stood from her desk, the Herbology professor, the one who always acts like a five-year-old child, came sneaking into the room. Anna watched her as she proceeded to join in on the lesson by squirting several bottles of glue all over the wall. Has she completely and totall lost her mind? Noticing the professor sprint through the room in an attempt to obtain more glue, Anna's eyes widened, and she hurried over to Professor Bunbury. "Professor! Wai---..." Anna was, of course, to late, though. By the time she reached the professor's side, the walls had been decorated (literally) with bottles and bottles of glue. Anna ducked as squirts of glue splashed in all directions. The walls were now drenched in glue. This was insane. The professors of Hogwarts have completely, totallylost their minds!

...and of course Professor Ashby, who was also acting no older than five, gladly joined in on the chaos. Sure, this was all fun and interesting to watch, but what about the health and sanity of the professors? Were they just going to keep getting crazier and crazier until no option but St. Mungo's was left?

Anna jumped upon hearing Professor Ashby's loud exclamation. He wasn't going to stick himself to the walls....was he? Of course he was... No matter how insane that looked, Anna had to laugh at the craziness. Who would have ever thought that they'd see professors glued to the walls of the school? Then, to top it off, Professor Bunbury just had to literally cartwheel herself onto the wall, as well. Had Anna thought she wouldn't lose points and gain a detention, she just might follow suit.

Well, there was nothing to do now but attempt to unstick them. Anna stepped a bit closer to the wall, raised her wand, and pointed it towards Professor Bunbury. "Avexis!" she called out. Not wasting any time to actually look and see if she'd succeeded, Anna quickly moved over to Professor Ashby, casting the charm on him, as well. "Avexis!"

Suddenly, Anna noticed a fellow student---a Gryffindor nonethless---cast a frazzling hex at Kayla Winters. Why was it always a Gryffindor? The other three houses were steadily climbing in points, yet it seemed that some of the Gryffindors felt the need to lose most of their's. Ugh. Anna started to say something to Daniel, but Professor Ashby seemed to have that situation under control. Anna shot a glare at Daniel. It really put quite a damper on things when housemates lost points others had worked so hard to gain. That made sixty-five points lost altogether, counting Herbology and Charms. Great. Just great.

At least Professor Bunbury was free now. Anna turned and watched as the Herbology professor landed on top of Jack Mosier, then proceeded to skip to the other end of the room to try the entire stunt all over again. Sheesh. Hopefully the students wouldn't be here forever trying to unstick their professors... Something, although Anna couldn't tell exactly what, was now going on between Jack and Professor Bunbury. Seeing the professor's unusual reaction, Anna sighed and headed over to the professor. When she reached the desk, Anna smiled and said, "Why don't you get off the desk and come help me with all this glue?" she asked. "Orrrr, I have a better idea. Do you want to come with me to the library and help hunt for a book I've been needing? It's called "Through the Looking Glass, and What Alice Found There" by Lewis Carroll.

Bunbunz didn't even say anything, she just scooted her bum back farther on the desk, away away away from Jack. She was probably knocking what glue bottles had been left on the desk right off. But she wasn't going to go near that creeeepy Huffypuffer.

Do you want to come with me to the library and help hunt for a book I've been needing? It's called "Through the Looking Glass, and What Alice Found There" by Lewis Carroll.

Annie's icy blue eyes darted to Anna, the next student who tried to approach her. Their names were so similar, maybe she would be more trustful than she was of Jack? But Jack was a Hufflepuff. Bunnybuns was a Hufflepuff. No wait, Anna was a Prefect. Prefects couldn't like, see the future and stuff, right?

The redhead shuddered at her internal debate. "Ohhh yeah, I was going to the library..." she muttered out loud, considering the Gryffindor's proposition. "And I wanted a book like that but...but....."

Her blue eyes landed on Ashby and she hugged her knees closer. "I'm good here til he makes me move," she whispered loudly to Anna. "I mean, how often do you get to climb on the professor's desk and not get in trouble?" Bunbuns threw a wink to the prefect and stayed put in her spot. There was plenty of time for the library later.

Anna blinked when her eyes met with the herbology professor's icy glare. She honestly didn't mean any harm. What in the world had Professor Bunbury so frightened? Anna narrowed her eyes in thought as the professor mentioned that she was just headed to the library to check out a similar book. She was interested in Alice and her looking glass, too? Interesting... "Alright then. I don't blame you for wanting to stay put anyway. I mean, you do have a point about that desk. How often do you get to glue yourself to the wall, as well?" Anna asked, not really expecting an answer. "Sooo, this book. What has you so interested in it?"

Kayla stood back and watched as the chaos unfolded and chuckled softly to herself that she had been apart of most of it. Although losing those ten points was a little unfair, she was just sticking up for herself. That stupid git Jack Mosier did put his wand in her face, I mean what else was she supposed to do?

She had a great urge to go and sit beside Professor Bunbury on the desk and swing her legs back and forth and talk about stupid stuff. The Professor's strange behviour seemed to be contagious, Kayla just felt like doing something really crazy for some reason and she looked up at the ceiling and wondered what it would be like to be stuck up there?

Jack eyed Anna as she came over 'Cheeeeeyaaaa' he thought angrily, he sooooo wanted to dump glue on her head now

Jack recoiled and moved away from the desk, he didn't watch where he was going, he went straight into the sticky wall... Jack almost screamed as his head hit the glue "My... hair... glue" he stuttered "GET ME OFF HERE!" he shouted as his wand fell to the floor "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW" he put his hand to his head and almost cradled his hair... Great. Now his hands were stuck, he kicked the wall and almost cried, now his foot was stuck.

Cale had been watching the events of the class unfold in somewhat of a shock, especially when Bunbury had entered the mix. She was acting so peculiar, especially now that she was climbing on top on Ashby's desk. Cale had to help her!

"Professor Bunbury, are you alright?" he asked, walking over to where Anna was. Blushing, he looked at his feet before clearing his throat and addressing her again. "Is there, erm--any particular reason you want to climb on Ashby's desk?" he asked. He hoped she wouldn't yell at him...he was concerned, that was all. First walking around with no shoes, now this?

William leaned against the wall that didn't have any glue on it and watched the students begin to surround Bunbury. He shook his head, wondering what in the world was going on. Sure she wasn't acting herself, but surrounding her like that wasn't going to help any. He wanted to help but was unsure. He knew all the problems disappeared with chocolate - or at least they did with him and so walked over a bit sheepishly.

"Erm Professor? Would you like a chocolate frog?" He asked in a soft voice once he stood in front of the desk, but away from her in case she hated people in front of her, his blue eyes warm. Better ask than not ask he figured as he looked at her. "I promise there's nothing wrong with it." He added, in case she thought he were trying to poison her or something.

Annie ignored all the questions and dealt with Jack firstly.

"Avexis," she said, lazily pointing her wand at the boy til he popped off the wall. "That's how it's done," she muttered to herself before turning her attention to Anna.

"Um, well," the redhead scratched her scalp as she tried to recall exactly what she had told the librarian a few weeks ago. "It's about a girl, and her pet bunny? Or is that the other book?"

She frowned momentarily and continued. "And you know, stuff? I just remember my Auntie Wilhelmina bought it for me but I forgot to bring it to school cos you know," she dropped her voice conspiratorially, "it's MUGGLE and some people wouldn't like thaaaaat."

Oooh, cutie Cale was in this class too? "Hiya!" Annie beamed at the boy. "Well duh, it's a nice big desk and I didn't want ya'll to move it out..." she bit her lip. "Should I have picked a different desk? Did you want to sit here too?" She scooted over to the left and patted the spot next to her, inviting Cale to sit down next to her.

"CHOCOLATE!" Annie called out suddenly, reaching her arms out like 'GIMMEGIMMEGIMME!' "You can sit up here too if you give me the chocolate," she added with a devious glance toward Ashby - hmm, he was clearly busy with something.

Jack fell to the floor as Bunbury released him from the wall, he crawled over to his wand and hugged it "Never leave me again" he crooned to his wand before checking it "Does anyone know a cleaning spell?" Jack asked the room at large when he noticed the crusty glue on his hands and face, he felt like he was covered in ice... cracked ice.

"Well, it does have a little girl in it. Oh, and there is a rabbit, as well, but I don't think that's what is so important about the book," Anna answered. "You see, my mum read the book to me when I was a little girl, so I only vaguely remember what it was about. I do remember there being a mirror in it, though. They called this mirror a "looking glass," because, well, for obvious reasons. Anyway, Alice discovered that on the other side of this particular looking glass, things were...you know, backwards. I'm not talking about the general reflecton seen in the looking glass either. I mean that things were really, truly backwards. You know, sort of like...grown-ups acting as if they were children. Things like that..." Anna grew quiet and observed the professor for a moment before turning her gaze toward Professor Ashby, as well. Backwards...

Lyra heard Banana and Bunbuns speaking about something that sounded somewhat familiar to her..."Alice," she asked Anna tilting her head to the side. "Why is everyone obsessing over Alice...or at least the Professors are?" She wondered what was going on and it was just plain crazy. "Who is Alice? I have yet to meet Alice in the hallways and I want to know what makes her so popular!"

Sarah looked up at the mention of "Alice".She had been moving the furniture as per Ashby's request when the name caught her attention.
Walking over to the assembled mass of students around Bunbury Sarah spoke.
"Ummm I have the Alice in Wonderland book in my bag if you wanted to borrow that...Professor.I brought it with me from home."
She smiled as nicely as she could,hoping that Bunbury wouldn't get scared of her and shout.
Was she doing the right thing?

William smiled as he handed her the chocolate frog, moving to sit next to her, but far enough away so she wouldn't become overwhelmed. "There's more where that came from." He said warmly, his pocket rustling a bit with the small pouch he always carried with him. "Thank you for letting me sit here." He added with another friendly smile.

Bunbury invited him to sit next to her? Heck yes! She didn't need to ask him twice. He hopped up and sat down on the top of the desk next to her. Hehe. This was actually kind of fun, now that he realized it--professors should just let them all sit on the desks for lessons every once in a while. He would learn SO much more. Not if Bunbry was there, though--he'd be too distracted.

"Thanks Professor," Cale said with a grin. "So, who's Alice?" he asked, looking at both Anna and the Professor as he spoke. "And what does she have to do with rabbits?"

Jack rolled his eyes and moved a desk out of the room, when he was outside, he glanced around, then he went back inside and pushed three more desks into the hall, Jack then pushed another desk outside, he leaned against the heavy desks and took a deep breath "Wow" he gasped tiredly

"Because...," Anna nonchalantly answered. "Alice is everywhere. She, or he depending on which class you're in, can be found all throughout Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. For Alice, you see, knows what's on the other side of the looking glass..."

"Oh, hey there," Anna said, glancing over to see a Hufflepuff she didn't think she'd ever met. "I'm Anna, and I really appreciate the offer, but I'm actually looking for the sequel to that book. The one that I'm looking for is called "Through the Looking Glass, and What Alice Found There'."

"She's Alice," Anna said, looking towards Professor Bunbury. "Oh, and he's Alice, as well." Anna turned her gaze to Professor Ashby. Backwards...but how did they do it? "Do you know what the world is like on the other side of the mirror, Cale? Alice discovered that it's backwards...all backwards!"
