Grinning in spite of himself, mostly over the fact that the professor seemed to remember him, Fletcher half-raised his hand again.
"Yeah, ma'am, I know of that great battle between the Death Eaters and Voldemort and Harry Potter that took place right here....er.... in the Great Hall area. The Great Battle for Hogwarts or somesuch? Were you around for that?"
He snickered to himself and kind of hoped the professor would take it lightly, as a joke. After all she herself had said she'd been around for the fall of the Roman Empire.

Selena blushed and smiled at the teacher meekly. Hahahaha. In times like these, the best thing to do was laugh and act like you were crazy so people would leave you alone. But the professor seemed a bit crazy as well. Surely the teacher would be able to tell!! "There was the Battle of Hogwarts here," Selena said after she raised her hand.

"You know, when the merpeople had taken over the school, it might have been a good idea to wear pots and pans for helmets, they had tridents, professor."
Celandine mused, hand up.
"The Battle of Thermopylae, professor? Spartans were super awesome." Well she didn't say wizarding battles... those tended to be done with wands after all.

Chris couldn't help but laugh out loud at Professor Lainey's responses to each student's answer about the pot.
Then a BATTLE???!!! Umm think...o.O
Oh got one. "Professor what about the battle between the Death Eater Bellatrix lestrange and Molly Weasley? It took place here did it not during the battle of Hogwarts? Molly fought that horrible woman because she had lost a son and her family had been so badly hurt by Voldemort and his followers."

"No, I don't feel like explaining right now. I'm over it. Next topic. Raise your hand, or shout out if you must, and ..... tell me about a battle. Any battle. Have YOU been in a battle?

Trixie was completely confused. Her brain was messed up all ready without the professor adding to it. "No I'm a vegan" she tried to explain. "You said about the cupcake" she shook her head totally confused. Okay now the professor was just making her even more depressed then she already was.
What?! How was she meant to answer these questions when she hadn't had a History of Magic lesson within the past 2 months and therefore wouldn't be able to answer. More depression. Now she really did feel like crying. Maybe going to this lesson wasn't such a good idea.
She smiled softly at Vashti however, as the younger girl came and sat with her. Now that was very kind of her. Fully appreciated. Even if she was a Ravenclaw. Hehe!
"I'm no Seer, professor. But I get along with Divination. We're good FRANDS." She beamed, and then raiiiised her hand, again.
"There's the Battle of the Department of Mysteries, professor. It happened in 1996, I believe. Took place at the shiny!Ministry of Magic. My favourite will always be the one in which me and my cousin battled over a new bottle of shampoo, though." Cue cheerful smile.
Then she added, "There was a battle at Hogwarts, too. End of last term." She fell quiet, rather suddenly.
"No, I don't feel like explaining right now. I'm over it. Next topic. Raise your hand, or shout out if you must, and ..... tell me about a battle. Any battle. Have YOU been in a battle?

A battle...hmmm...what was a battle she knew about. Well her grandfather had told her some stories that his grandfather had told him about. Let's see there was the Battle of Hogwarts...opps...someone already mentioned that...umm....what else? OHHH!!!
Nikki raised her hand and said, "There's the Battle of the Department of Mysteries. It was when Voldemort tried to steal a prophecy I think."

Evelyn really was extremely confused. WHY did she have a POT on her HEAD!?
WHY!!!????
Sighing, she listened to all the other answers before hearing the next question that the professor asked. It was a question right? They were suppos- Ugh! Whatever, she was going to answer anyways. "There was a battle when Harry Potter was going to be moved by the Order of the Phoenix to another safe place after...or before, I don't remember... his seventeenth birthday. I guess the Death Eaters were tipped off about this event and showed up as they were leaving."
He had heard Professor Lainey trying to deafen him, that was what he'd heard.
Sticking a finger in his ear, Raiden tried vainly to dispel the ringing that had started when Professor Lainey had... gotten overexcited.
Apparently she was afraid of house elves?
Huh.
"There have been a few battles here," he said, slightly quieter than he'd meant to. "At Hogwarts. Merlin it's... practically every other year, isn't it. Wasn't there a big fight, when Muggles attacked?"
Before his time, but it wasn't like he'd never heard of it.
"The war of the goblin rebellion?" That was a war right? It didn't really matter, because she just wanted to hear the professors response anyways. This seemed like it would be one of her favorite classes....
"Cook something? In HISTORY? What is this madness??? Do you WANT to cook? Aw honey, are you hungry?" Lainey knew where to get cupcakes...
... just saying...
Lainey stared at this young Prefect. Blinked. Stared. Blinked. Stared.
"You are correct. A bit prophetic, too. You dabble in the hooby dooby wigwam Divination stuffs?" Humm. Anyway.
"You should answer without the lithe at the end, love. Say it like you MEAN it. Convince me that I DO want to!" Lainey PUNCHED the air, clearing away ANY doubt that .... Lainey WANTED the pot on her head.
"Errrr..... Hmmm."
???
"No?" Well. After her little speech to Evelyn, Lainey cleared her throat and amended, "No." ......... "Unless you know something I don't." Did she? Hmm. Lainey would keep TWO eyes on that one. She did a hand signal to the Prefects/Head Boy (snap snap clap snap finger lick feel the breeze) to alert them that they were to watch THAT one.
"You look like you KNOW something. Don't be shy. Or... just do be careful there. Don't strain. Or do some stretches first. Pulled muscles are boars, man."
....
....
...... "You keep pots in your pants?" Really?
Gryffindors. Lainey LOVED them, each and every one. Her nose wrinkled and she gave him slow nods. Goooooood Head boy. Goody boy.
O____________O
"What did you HEAR????" Lainey was instantly SOBERED. All the fun, all the jokes and snorts GONE.
Lainey was NOT SLEEPING in this CASTLE tonight. NOT. If the House Elves were mad at her again.... NO. O___O O__________________________O!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lainey went and shut her classroom door and pulled her pot down to cover most of her face. Great MERLIN.
Lainey, once more, performed her hand signals to the prefects. WATCH THIS ONE. ARMED AND PUFFY PUFF!!!! "Cedric, honey, sticks and stones DO break bones. Don't believe everything your momma told you." For real.
"Oh Merlin.... I ... did I ask that? I thought I did. Did I just ask it in my head?" Lainey pulled the pot down farther, covering her face so that her voice would echo and reverberate off the stainless steel walls, "WHY DO I HAVE A POT ON MY HEAD??!!!"
"Vegan? I thought you were Trixie?!?!? I don't have an alternative. I'm me all the time...." So.... which was Lainey speaking to NOW? Multiple personalities... Lainey hadn't ever dealt with that, but she was sure she could handle it. Sure. Why not?
Just when Lainey was getting over the SHOCK of potential HOUSE ELF REVENGE.... William goes and THROWS this on her.
What. The. Dung.
"I don't know what you mean, William. Don't know why they'd come for me specifically. I'd make a horrible probee. Horrible." But Lainey did give William LOOKS. LOOKS like... do you know something I don't....????. Hmmmm. EEEEEK.
"This is why I love Hufflpuffs. You're just so LITERAL. And you're also correct. Kiss your brain for being SOoOOoOoo smart." Lainey blew Miss Arya KISSES. MUAH MUAH MUAH MUAH.
Well. Lainey BRISTLED at that. "Rude."
Totally rude. MAYBE it was true, but. Well. RUDE. Lainey extended her hand, pointed her finger at Destiny, and said again, "RUDE."
"Besides..... that's a matter of opinion." Huff. Lainey stroked her pot!hat and did some cat walks. NYEAH. Rude.
"Ohhhhh. Hey now, you might be on to something there.... you.... just... might be. Or maybe you're just totally RIGHT."
"Or totally wrong."
"BUT DEFINITELY on to something! Well DONE you!"
"So... I have bad hair and I look like a man, now?" Lainey placed her hands on her hips and GLARED at the young man. It was all fake though, and quickly melted into a grin. Hehe "You.... you might be on to something."
"And you may, but not right now. I want everyone to look at me." Clearrrrrly.
"I do like potatoes. I do. I admit it. All I had was a peanut butter sandwich today....." HINT HINT.
But no. Not really. No.
"Welcome. Least I could do." WINK.
"Hmmmmmmmmm. Well.... I don't doubt that a pot IS high fashion, and dead useful," or maybe useful for not getting oneself dead...," but they're are a bit heavy. Nothing a lightening charm couldn't fix.... but... well. MAYBE! I am pretty fashion savvy."
Yeah that was SO apparent.
"WHATS THAT? What'd you say???"
"An elephant never forgets."
"No, no, don't give me sugar now. After class though, you and me. Date." Lainey wiggled her eyebrows at dear little Diggy.
hahaha
Riiiiiight. Speaking of jokes.... hahaha. hehe. "You should go sit with the Head Boy, Dig my Boy. You two... you got special pants."
"I will march over there and SIT right ON YOU, Celandine Toussaint. RIght on you until I squeeze all the little smarts out of your brain."
"I told that other girl.... we're NOT doing any illegal activities today. Well, not intentionally, anyway. Do behave." Lainey did more secret prefect hand motions.... you know, cause those made sense.
"You and WILLIAM! What do you KNOW about aliens? If you KNOW things....," Lainey trailed off, giving Oliver the BIG EYED 'see me later and tell me stuff' looks. She was good at looks too. Really.
"Is that flattery? Oh.... whew. Oliver is trying to make the professor blush! Or tan his nose!" Lainey pointed and grinned and ... hehe. She DID love Slytherins. Did did did.
"Oh. Well. That's sort of brilliant." Lainey was half wondering WHY this class WASNT about Johnny Appleseed. Merf. That would have been cool....
"OH! YOU! HAHAH!" Lainey POINTED with one of those "AHA!" expressions. Did everyone remember him? Pants?
Oh there were LOTS of pants boy 'round here. Funny....
"That's not a bad intro, Fletcher. Well done. Kudos. Bravo and hooray!" Lainey would have done a cartwheel, but her superior hat just didn't allow that much movement.

"No, I don't feel like explaining right now. I'm over it. Next topic. Raise your hand, or shout out if you must, and ..... tell me about a battle. Any battle. Have YOU been in a battle?

He pinched himself to make sure he was awake and he wasn't dreaming. Or maybe he was in a sugar coma and he had fallen into a weird Willy Wonka like land without the candy. Because this professor reminded him of Johnny Depp's Willy Wonka and he had to clamp his mouth shut to keep from laughing out loud. He blushed and squeaked when she wagged her eyebrows at him. A. Date. With a Professor? What? He was only 15! And she was like...well she was older than him mom!
He jumped up and went and sat next to the Head Boy. He scooted close to him and kinda hid behind him. The professor wanted to date him. He gulped, he wasn't even shaving yet! He wiped a hand across his forehead. She was making him sweat, and not in the cotton candy, Professor Carlton way either.
He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. He would just stay after class and tell her that she was really pretty, but his mom would birth a hippogriff if he took her home to his parents. Not to mention she would be the tallest thing in the house. Yeah she would totally understand that. He peeked around the Head Boy, good she was moving on and not making eyebrow faces at me. Diggy said to himself. But he still hid behind the Head Boy.
He looked around when she asked a question, he thought it was safe to answer now. He raised his hand, "Or the Trojan War. The Greeks invaded Troy with a giant wooden horse. My sister Paris is named after Prince Paris who started the war when he took that Sparta guy's wife Helen. There is a really good muggle movie about it. My mom loves that movie," she always blushed through the whole movie. His dad really hated watching it.

Battles? Well, those were already said. Duels? Kinda like battles, right?
"Uhmmm, Battle of Hogwarts. That battle at the ministry... There's another, I can't think of it... But what about duels? Can those count as battles? Or does there have to be a lot of people...? Oh! Wasn't it like Battle at the Astronomy tower or whatever? During Harry Potter's sixth year?" Ugh.. She hated referring to him. She liked him, alright. There was just too much talk of him.

Yes, that is one of MANY reasons to love us. Cause really, who didn't love a Hufflepuff? We're just so loveable, us cuddly badgers.
Arya giggled at the professor as she blew kisses at her. Such a cooliyo professor she was. Not caring that they weren't going to be learning the reasons behind the helment pot, she thought about any battles, steering clear of the one from last term, before awnsering. "There was the battle between Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort in the great hall all those years ago."

Ooh...Ooh... Jacob had this... "There was that battle ... with that thing." jacob started falter in his answer. "And...uh... they did stuff? and..." he stopped and looked at the ground. "nevermind" he said scratching the back of his neck. Jacob wasn't stupid, he was in ravenclaw to prove that... it was just a difficult question that everyone else answered with ease. He was just enegretic today, it wasn't his fault he didnt stay quiet.
Ainra shouted out an answer without thinking, it was lucky that she had taken a particular interest in magical history and had looked over her textbook repeatedly over the summer. "Well there was the battle between Grindelwald and Dumbledore where Dumbledore defeated Grindelwald, which was probably the greatest battle ever up to that point, but then the battle of Hogwarts probably superceded it when that happened about sixty years later." She flashed a quick smile. She felt smart! Yay!
"You and WILLIAM! What do you KNOW about aliens? If you KNOW things....," Lainey trailed off, giving Oliver the BIG EYED 'see me later and tell me stuff' looks. She was good at looks too. Really.
"Is that flattery? Oh.... whew. Oliver is trying to make the professor blush! Or tan his nose!" Lainey pointed and grinned and ... hehe. She DID love Slytherins. Did did did.

Oooh.. she wanted to hear about aliens? Like seriously? Oh he would take her his books on alien conspiracy theories at some point. Nod, nod.
hehe! Lainey was awesome.. like, totally awesome. He beamed back at her as she pointed at him. So not the right answer but she liked it.. oh yesh. hehe!
---
Battles, battles.. Lainey didn't stipulate that they had to be magical.. or real. He raised his hand. "There was that awesome battle between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader. You know the one.." Cos everyone knew about that. He did the lightsabre sounds and pretended to wield one 'SwoOOOOoooosh zOOOOooom, swoOOOoosh.'"I'm your father, Luke. .... NOOOOOOOOO!" And, yeah.. hehe!

"There was a battle here last year." Carter said raising his hand and nearly shouting over everyone. Immediately he wish he hadn't have mentioned it. He would rather not relive last year in a history lesson.

Alexandrie was so confused, History was her worst subject even if she was just reading a History Book. But she tried anyway, "Well there is the Battle beween Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort at the graveyard after he was revived." Alex told the Professor hesistantly from her place on the floor having raised her hand before speaking, she perfered hiding over drawing attention but if she knew something then why not say it?
"Ohhhhh. Hey now, you might be on to something there.... you.... just... might be. Or maybe you're just totally RIGHT."
"Or totally wrong."
"BUT DEFINITELY on to something! Well DONE you!"

Oh. Awesome. Miranda chuckled, looking surprised at the events. Well then, something about protective gear?
Hm... battles.
She raised her hand again. "Miss, we had a battle here at Hogwarts last term. A couple of us students tried to kill Professors and the Headmaster." That WAS a battle, right? What a waste. And she looked bored, even, when she answered.

That was the most awesomest answer she had heard in this class.
She gave Oliver an amused crooked smile. Star Wars ruled. Like really.

Diggy looked from around his protected perch behind the Head Boy to stare at his uncle. Was he serious? "The battle between Obi Won and Anakan Skywalker was way better than than." He pointed out. Because it totally was. That's how come Darth Vader was so evil. Well that and he obviously crazy to begin with.

What? Nuu!
"The Battle of the Morannon was the best," Gold declared, waving her hand in the air. "Gandalf and Aragorn and all the good guys totally defeated Sauron and his bad!army."
Not to mention, it was a PROPER battle. These people were sort of talking duels, and not battles.
That was the most awesomest answer she had heard in this class.
She gave Oliver an amused crooked smile. Star Wars ruled. Like really.
Oliver caught Miranda's look and sent a smile back her way. He knew she would appreciate that.

Nuh uh.. Oliver crinkled his nose. "No way, man. You can't compare that to one of the original classics." Seriously.. what was George Lucas thinking when he did those prequels? He smirked at Digz and focused his attention back on Lainey.
