Hugo hopped into the classroom. Ahh Runes. Oh noes. "Hello sir," he told the new teacher, who seemed to be from the NORGWEGIAN ministry? Humm. "I'm very bad at Runes so I hope we can start from the basics," he said and took a seat.

No bags this time, carrying a bunch of books through classes were no longer a good idea. Not when you have bigger books, anyway. Louisa walked into the class and her eyes found the new Professor. Before she greeted him, the writings on the board had caught her eyes and she paused to read them. Without moving her eyes off his name she opened her mouth, "Hello Professor... Chris-tian-sen." Pressing on each syllable. And the young girl sank into the first seat she met, it was strangely empty in here.

Lexi had learnt to LOVE Runes. LOVE IT! With her bag hitched high on her shoulder she marched into the classroom and with a bright smile she said to the Ministry man person professor, "Good day, sir! I hope Hogwarts is treating you well so far."

She wasn't keen on the Ministry interfering here... but no reason to be rude to a professor. Ever. She would tattle before she would be rude. Hehe.

With a little wave she then took a seat in the front row and took out her supplies for class, eager to learn some Runey stuff. Mhm.

Helena entered the class nervously. She loved Ancient Runes... but what if she's not going to like the new professor?

Okay, think positive.

"Good morning, professor," she said, trying to smile at the new professor. As the girl took a seat somewhere in the front of the classroom, she kind of... stared, at what was written on the blackboard. Norvegian Ministry of Magic? Uhh.

Jeanne was getting hyped from her first day of class and hopefully she would do well. Ancient Runes was not a favorite subject of hers but she doesn't hate it, it's just that it somehow sounds hard.

She went in for her first class and went to take a seat. "good morning professor" she greeted

Blehhh Ancient Runes.

Unlike his first experience with Potions class, Jamie was very unmotivated to be here right now. It was a complete mystery as to why he even bothered showing up in the first place. Well, no it wasn't. He would give the lesson a chance, even though he didn't understand the subject in the slightest. "Good morning, Professor -" his eyes averted to the chalk board, "Christiansen." He said with a smile, trying to look a bit more excited than he actually was.

Good job he came equipped with a Puking Pastille in his pocket, fresh from his large collection of Skiving Snackboxes. Juuuust in case.

Jamie sat at the BACK.

Ancient Runes was an okay subject, Macnair had decided. A little dull perhaps, but it didn't require shoveling manure or cutting up caterpillars or any other nasty stuff. It was a safe subject. So he thought, at least.

Clutching to his messenger bag, Knox made his way into the classroom and waved enthusiastically at the red-headed Professor before finding himself a seat and perching precariously on the edge of it.

"Oooh, you're form Norway," he pointed out the obvious after reading the blackboard.

Hmm, she didn't know why she still took this class. It really had nothing to do with what she wanted to do in life, and if she needed to know some runes, then that's what books were for. Maybe it was because she hoped she'd see Professor Truebridge standing there in the classroom, ready to teach, instead of...whoever this guy was.

"Good day, Professor...Christiansen." Christiansen? Yea, that so didn't sound like Truebridge at all. And that definitely wasn't his handwriting on the chalkboard either. Norwegian? Yea...she was pretty Truebridge wasn't from there either. PFFFT.

Smiling somewhat, Evelyn turned to look at the seating arrangements so far...and decided to sit in the WAY BACK once she saw Lexi in the front. Sure, their conversation at the feast was alright, but, that could have just been the bad food and emotionally unstable side of her talking. Right?

Another claaasss~~!

Why was Daichi so excited to take classes? Maybe he was bored and wanted something to do? Daichi swung his school bag over his shoulder and held Mr.Duckles in his right hand. He was NOT going to go anywhere with it! and made his way over to the Ancient Runes class. Arriving at his destination after having walked the wrong way for fifteen minutes, Daichi saw a man standing near the door way. "Hello Professor~!" he greeted with a wave of his left hand. He walked further in the class and that was when he saw the chalkboard. He read their Professors name and... "YOUR FROM NORWAY?!" he shouted in awe. Daichi realised he had shouted and quickly apologised for his behaviour. "S-sorry Professor..err.." he took a quick glance towards the chalkboard while bowing his head. "Christiansen"

Ancient Runes. Not her best subject, but still not her worse.
She entered the classroom and almost stopped in the doorway looking at the teacher. Well he was new. "Good day... sir" she quickly added continuing into the room and taking a seat. She was curious about this lesson now. Norwegian ministry of magic? Curious...

Selina walked down the corridor on her way to Ancient Runes. She missed this class. She missed her teacher. He had taught her so much and could not wait to ask him how his summer was. But then another teacher sat in her Professor's desk. Who was this man? She moved slowly into her desk and read his post on the board. His was ministry... oh merlin.

Viola entered the classroom, totally NOT looking forward to this lesson. She found it really boring. That's probably because she didn't find it that easy.

She greeted the professor with a "Good morning, sir", before taking a seat in the front. She hoped that this lesson went reasonably well.

She'd known some of their professors this term would be ministry appointed but as Ivory stepped into the Ancient Runes classroom, she couldn't help but pause. A small part of her had been hoping she'd see the stern but comforting face of Professor Truebridge rather than...a red headed man whom she'd never seen in her life.

A red headed man who was also from the Norwegian Ministry of Magic.

Realizing she shouldn't dawdle in the entrance way, the Ravenclaw prefect walked forward. If the ministry was here to keep an eye on the situation, perhaps at least for now giving them the best impression was the better plan...perhaps then they wouldn't meddle in their curriculum.

Fixing her face into a genuine friendly smile, she approached the man. "Good morning, Professor," Her dark eyes flitted to the board for a millisecond. "Christiansen. My name is Ivory Erised, and I just wanted to say on behalf of the students, Welcome to Hogwarts and I hope you enjoy your time here."

With a respectful nod, she made her way to the front middle of the classroom and took a seat with a small smile to those already there. Yup, polite introductions and welcome. Check.

Arya was sure this class had nothing to do with creatures, and she probably wouldn't be taking the OWL if things got too busy for her, so she didn't know why she was attending the lesson. Maybe because she wanted to see who would be teaching it? Curiosity and what not.

There was a bit of disappointment in not seeing Truebridge's face when she entered, but no surprise. "Hey, Professor Christiansen." Her curious eyes lingered on the board before turning to the man himself for polite smiles. Sitting in the center seemed the best idea, and she slipped into one of those seats, smile growing as she listened to her friend greet the man. But no, she wouldn't be giving him the same greeting.

Serena got out her Ancient Runes book, she had no idea how she would do at Ancient Runes, but what was the worst that could happen. She gave a mumbled Hello to the teacher and sat down on the nearest available chair.

Mmm. Ancient Runes. it was one of his favorite subjects, so Finaly was very happy to be coming to this lesson. Even if it was a professor from the ministry. At least someone was teaching it though, so that must have been something. Finlay smiled at he entered the classroom. "Hello Professor" The headboy politely nodded at the teacher, before turning to the seats, and decided where to sit.

Ahh. There was Lexi. Smiling, he wandered over to the first row, and sat down next to Lexi. "Hey Lex..." At least he wasn't covering her in blood this time. Things were definetly better. Pulling out a piece of parchement, and quill he got ready for the class to start.

Oakey came walking into the class fully excited for his first of many classes. just as all the other students did he welcomed the professor, Hello Professor Christiansen he said with a smile on his face. He took a good long look at the Professor. He wasn't there at the feast, so this was one of the many Ministry appointed teachers the Headmaster spoke about. The teacher being new didn't matter to Oakey though, he was new himself so everything and everybody was new to him. He took a seat in the middle of the class.

Ancient Runes. Zara took a deep breathe and went inside the classroom. She saw what was written on the board and looked at the Professor, "Good morning, Professor Tristan Christiansen." Uh oh. That sounded wrong. I should've only called him by the last name. Zara gulped, realizing her mistake and bowed, then proceeded to content herself by sitting on one of the chairs near the middle.

Serena saw Zara sitting in the middle, and being one of the few people Serena knew, Serena quickly stood up an moved near to her, whispering "Hey, how are you?"

This was Nessie's second lesson. Nessie walked in and greeted the professesor. "Morning Professor" she said. She then took a sit in the middle of the class sitting next to Oakey and infront of Zara."Hey guys! " she wispered. Meanwhile she started taking out her books,quill and some partchment out of her pretty and purple school bag. She then got her hands ready to write.

Rachel walked into the class room, "Hello Professor, Christiansen." she said cheerfully, this class was going to be fun! She saw a girl she had met before somewhere, then went and sat down. She was feeling really excited about all of her classes, but she thought that the only reason she had never liked classes before was because in her old muggle school she didnt learn anything, she knew it all, then the school caught fire because of something, it wasnt her! But it was in a history class so hopefully this would be better than that class! she then saw Nessie, she knew her too, so hopefully she would still be friends with her now.

Carter walked into ancient runes. This was his first class with one of the new professors. He was a little bit uneasy about anybody that Borr put into place. Nevertheless he smiled as he entered the classroom and gave a polite "Hello Professor."

He then took a seat near the back of the classroom.

Matt walked into Ancient Runes, his first class of the day. He smiled nervously at the Professor, his dark eyes desperately steady. Too anxious to say hello, a blush already creeping to his cheeks, he turned to face the room of students. He spotted two familiar faces in the sea of people, and made his way hastily over to them.

"Hey guys." he said with a small smile, pulling up a seat beside Nessie and Zara. He reached into his bag and pulled out a quill, ready to start the lesson.

He nodded to all the students who came in. "God Morgen studenter, er Mitt navn-" and his eyes went wide. "I am sorry." He said in a heavy accent. "I will speak English, ja? Good Morning, students of runes. I am Tristan Christiansen, I will be teacher of runes to you. Sank you to all who have greeted me, and wished well to me."

He pointed at the top line on the board. "Ancient Runes. Who can tell me what is Ancient Runes and where come from?" His accent still very prominent.
