Transfiguration Lesson 3
 
Lars propped open the door to the transfiguration classroom and returned to his desk at the front of the room. Today, the desks were arranged in pairs, and on each desk was a pink, rabbit-shaped and sugar-covered marshmallow and a chess piece. Not a chess piece from a wizarding chess set, though. These were simple, Muggle chess pieces. Nothing magical about them. At the front of the classroom, on Professor Svensson's desk, was a chess board complete with all its pieces.

With her blonde hair in plaits Brody Summers entered the Transfiguration classroom with a smile on her face. She liked this lesson. Tehhe.
"Hello Professor" She nodded, a she took a seat at one of the paired desks. Oooh. Pink marshmallow. It looked yummmy! She wanted to eat it. Tehhe. She hoped they could eat them laaatter. Or maybe the Professor had a stashs she could have...or maybe not.

Alexandra skipped into the Transfiguration classroom and smiled at the Professor. "Good day, Professor" she said with a little giggle. This was easily becoming one of her favorite subjects.

Noticing that the desks were in pairs she plopped down at one desk and waited for Lorcan. Hopefully they wouldn't blow anything up today... or catch anything on fire.

Lucille walked into the room tying up her white hair. it was getting too long. sigh.

But then her eyes lit up.

BUNNY SHAPED SUGAR COVERED MARSHMALLOWS!!??

Ohhhhhh!!

She sat down, saying as she did so "Chello Professor. Now down to buisness, can we eat these?" She pointed at the marshmallow infront of her, smiling with BIG eyes.

Weeeeeell, another class to go to. Transfiguration was fun and all, but Miranda thought it was a bit difficult. But hopefully today would be allright.

Walking inside the classroom, she halted when she noticed the desks and that there was something on them...

CANDY!
Oh yes, this would be a good class indeed!

With a wave, Miranda greeted the man. "Good Day Professor Svensson, sir! How are you today?" she proceeded to sit down at the front of the class as usual to make sure she saw everything the professor was demonstrating.

Kay walked into the classroom. She looked around and saw the pink little rabbit marshmallow and the chess piece. She looked up at the Professor and wondered. "Hello Professor." Kay said walking to the table she and Marie used last time. Kay saw Alexandra already there and wanted to be nice. "Hi Alexandra." and gave a little wave. She put her bag down and sat to wait for the class to start.

Becca hopped along to a random beat in her head on her way to Transfiguration. She walked over the threshold, careful not to trip and then surveyed the room, before saying,with a grin, "Hello Professor, seems like it's going to be a fun lesson, I can already tell!". Then she took a seat at one of the paired desks. She hoped somebody she could get to know would sit next to her..

Tammy smiled a little bit, and gave her nose a little rub with her palm as she walked into the classroom and headed for the back of the class. But she didn't get far, until she turned and smiled at Professor Svensson, and greeted him. "Hey Professor." The smile slowly turned into a grin, and she continued for the back of the classroom.

Before taking a seat back there, hoping the person that would sit in her 'pair' would be someone nice.

miss.weasley23 11-06-2009 11:30 PM

Anya walked into the Transfiguration classroom. Seeing the pink bunnies on the desks put a big smile on her face. Giggling to herself, she walked through the door, "Hello Professor!" She sat down at one of the desks and waited for anybody she knew.

"Hello," Svensson replied. He kept his mouth open, as if he were going to add the girl's name, but then he realized... he did not know this one's name. Ooops.

The professor raised an eyebrow and shook his head. "No, you may not eat them. Perhaps later you can if you want, but we'll be using the marshmallow rabbits in class. Leave them where they are," he said.

"I am well, thank you," Svensson replied with a nod in the girl's direction.


It appeared that a fair amount of students had arrived. Looking at his watch, Professor Svensson saw that it was time for class to begin. "If someone could please close the door, we'll begin," he said, standing up. He paced around his desk until he stood next to his chess board.

"Who can tell me the difference between the chess pieces on your desk, and my chess set here?" Svensson asked, gesturing at his own chess pieces but not actually touching them.

HPgirl 11-06-2009 11:34 PM

Sky walked in, her ever-present messenger bag hitting her leg with every step.
"Anya!"

miss.weasley23 11-06-2009 11:36 PM

Anya raised her hand. "These are muggle chess pieces and you have a wizard chess set." Anya stated. She wanted to get a good start this lesson, to get an E, maybe even an O.

Anya turned at the sound of her name, blushing. Seeing it was Sky, she smiled brightly at her.

Kay put her hand up. "Sir the one on my desk is from a muggle set. Your is a wizarding chess set." Kay answered hoping that she was right and that's what the Professor meant. She felt a little unsure of her answer.

Sky grinned, then, raising her hand, chimed in enthusiastically.
"You have a wizard chess set, and it's different from a muggle one 'cause the pieces beat the snot outta each other!"

"Quite right!" Svensson applauded the girl.

The professor nodded slowly. "Correct... but what, other than how the difference in the way they play chess, makes the two different?"

Adrienne raised her hand from her desk near the back, that she had slipped into shortly before class started. "Professor, these are Muggle chess pieces, which aren't able to move on their own. And, assuming everyone else is correct that you have a Wizarding chess set at your desk, those pieces are charmed or something so that they can move on their own." Not that she'd ever been very good at Wizarding chess, other than conceptually.

miss.weasley23 11-06-2009 11:53 PM

"The wizard chess pieces move to their next place by your voice. Muggle chess pieces have to be moved physically," she said, still beaming that she had been able to answer a question.

"Precisely!" Svensson cried, waving his arms wildly. He picked up one of his own Wizarding chess pieces and walked over to a desk near the front, picked up a piece, and held both chess pieces in the air.

"Say I wanted to make both of these chess pieces as similar as possible, in terms of what we just discussed. Let's brainstorm some ways we could do that," he said.

Roselyn 11-07-2009 12:20 AM

Evelyn, who was sitting towards more of the back of the room, looked around as everyone started to call out answers. 'Hmm, difference between muggle and wizard chess pieces...well one is definitely more exciting than the other.' Smirking, she then turned her attention to the PINK marshmallow. Oh how she hated the color pink. And it was another marshmallow. 'Getting kind tired of those..'

Leaning back in her seat, Evelyn surveyed the room again, listening to what the Professor was saying. She had no idea how to make them both similar, but on the other hand, she wasn't trying to think of any ideas either. She was feeling too tired at the moment. "Can't you just make the wizard chess piece...not...move on their own? Or make the muggle ones move..." she mumbled quietly to herself, drawing circles on the desk with her finger. It was the only thing she could think of at the moment.

Erindipity 11-07-2009 12:27 AM

Hmmm... Alexandra thought on that one for a moment charming the muggle pieces to move would work, but this was Transfiguration, not charms... Hmmm indeed. She kept her hand down this time, waiting for the Professor to answer.

SilverTiger 11-07-2009 01:17 AM

How to make the chess pieces as similar as possible?, Adrienne mused, still a little surprised at the reaction her previous answer had gotten from the professor. But then she came up with a few ideas, and raised her hand again. "Would 'Petrificus Totalus' work on the Wizarding chess pieces? Because that would make them unable to move on their own. Or, the reverse would be some form of the Mobilicorpus spell, although you'd have to change the incantation to refer to the Muggle chess piece. But even then, you'd still be moving it. Or, you could always just use a Switching Spell, make the Wizarding chess piece a Muggle one and vice versa." And now that hse said it, those ideas sounded ridiculous. But they were all she could come up with currently.

LilFox06 11-07-2009 01:37 AM

Carter raised his hand. "You could animate the muggle pieces." he said. "I think the spell is 'Piertotum Locomotor'."

Mrs_Molly_Weasley 11-07-2009 01:38 AM

Becca raised her hand slowly, after listening to everyone else's response. To tell the truth, she had no idea what the answer was. "I agree with her." Becca nodded her head in the direction of the older Ravvie. "It makes a lot of sense to me." Well, it sounded like a pretty good answer, and it sounded very accurate.

The1HBIC 11-07-2009 01:44 AM

Marie raised her hand "Sir, we could use Immobulus on the wizarding pieces to make them like the muggle pieces." She really had no clue what the answer would be but she wanted to give some sort of answer. She looked at Kay waiting to hear what she had to say.

harrypottterbroadway 11-07-2009 01:50 AM

Aah, Transfiguration. Keeley's favorite class EVER. Well, being a metamorphagus, how could it not? But, having been in the hospital wing for the last lesson, she was behind. She fingered the cross pendant around her neck. Hmm... how to make them as similar as possible?
