| | Divination One As Divination lessons have been relocated to the ground level for the term, you'll find the classroom has been dusted slightly and there is someone standing at the front of the room waiting for you. That someone is neither human nor animal, as a being with the lower body of a chestnut horse and the upper body of a strong, muscular black haired man.
Take your seats quickly, limiting your chatter and staring, as the lesson will begin shortly. ooc: the lesson will begin in approximately four hours from now.
Lesson has started; please pretend as though you've been there the whole time unless you WANT to lose points =) |

Louisa had gotten aaaaaaaaaall the way to the top tower for Divination only to find the classroom, well, not there! She stared at the sealed door for a couple of minutes before descending the stairs to go to the courtyard to ask about the new-classroom..
..only she'd found it on the Ground floor.
The girl knocked on the door and peered in. The first thing that caught her eyes were the legs. She quickly averted her gaze to the Centaur and gave a nervous smile. "Umm... hello. D-d-do I enter?" Was there Centaur conviction in Hogwarts that she should know about? This room was sure their Divination classroom, though.

Penny walked into the new Divination Class, normally they would be up in the North Tower...
She was actually quite excited about this class as Divination was a passion of her, rivalling only her love of Herbology..
Taking a seat quickly, she looked up at the new Divination Professor and smiled.."Good Morning Professor"....

August had read the message on the Gryffindor notice board about the Divination class and then some stuff about it moving to the ground floor. He hadn't known where it was before this term so he didn't take it as something out of the ordinary and just went to the new classroom and walked in with a curious air.
O___O
Where was he? Why was there a horse...no man...no HORSE MAN IN THE CLASSROOM?! He looked at some of the other kids already in the classroom and they didn't seem too worried. "Umm hello Professor." He took a seat near the back of the class. He had never seen anything like this.

Gwenyth wasn't entirely sure whether this was something she would be good at nor whether it was something she would enjoy but she was up for trying and you never knew, it could be something she was actually good at.
So she arrived at the classroom fairly early, entering at sitting near the middle, nervous of what was about to happen. As long as there was no hate or.. anything that went against her mothers morals really. If there were, Gwenyth would be considering leaving the school. "H-hello Professor" the brunette mumbled nervously as she walked in.
O_____________________________O
HANG ON?!
He was a.. a.. centaury thing. She'd read about them in one of Jude's mythology books but seeing one in the flesh was..
Intimidating? Scary? Fascinating.

Kimalia walked into the Divination classroom. The class she least looked forward to, she couldn't bring out the inner-eye last term, so what would make this term any different? She mainly came to give her best effort, then she could drop it if it became too hard. Kimalia then wondered why it wasn't on the top floors this term when she saw the reason.. A centaur? Kimalia blinked in confusion. Was he the professor? Kimalia still forced a kind smile to show, as it was impolite to stare. "Good day, Professor." That was correct, right? She walked to a nearby seat regardless ready to give her full attention.

Her light footsteps sounding abnormally loud in the of yet near empty surrounding, Ivory Erised made her way to the first Divination Lesson. The divination lesson that would take place on the ground floor. Not in a tower. Not near her common room. Did she mention the part about it being on the ground floor? Because it was. A fact that the petite brunette found incredibly intriguing.
Her eyes shone darkly, like water before a storm the way they usually did when her excitement, or in this case her curiosity was peaked. Arriving at the threshold to what had before been a nondescript empty classroom, the female prefect donned a polite smile and took the first step inside-
-and blinked.
Her step faltered for an almost unperceivable millisecond, her mind connecting the dots in a split seconds before resuming her walk inside. "Good day, Professor," Inclining her head respectfully in a polite nod, the prefect spoke up as she approached a front most desk. "On behalf of the House of Ravenclaw, Welcome to Hogwarts."

Kurumi entered the classroom feeling even more nervous than usual since her and Hugo had actually met with their new Divination professor prior to the lesson. The circumstances had been a bit odd since her and the Ravenclaw had been pretty much chasing fireflies in a pitch black classroom, but at least she wouldn't have the initial shock that she was sure everyone else would be experiencing when they saw who was teaching.
Upon entering, Kurumi bit her lip when she saw all the gaping mouths and stares. Yep, sooooooo glad she had the shock already absorbed. "Good day, Professor Thereos," Kurumi smiled with a polite bow to the centaur as she took a seat right in the front row and set her bag on the table to begin removing its contents. She took a quick scan of the room, hoping for a hint as to what they would be learning, but no such luck...and the room was still rather dusty. Was their divination by means of dust bunnies?

Jory entered the classroom, eager to start Divination. He hoped he would be a bit more good at the subject than last term.
He was surprised to see a centaur in the room but he hid it."Hello, Professor,'' he said politely as he made his way to take a seat. There were not many students present as yet. Jory sat back and waited for the class to begin.

Maddy walked up to the divination classroom, she entered expecting the professr to be greeting students as the other classes were, but in the teacher's place was a centor! Maybe he was going to teach divination. "Hello" Maddy greeted him, not knowing whether to call him professer or not. She took her seat at the back of the class this time.

| ♣ Heejin here | Did somebody say coffee & cakes? | cat lover ♣ Jonathan came to Divination class and was surprised to see their new professor... a centaur. Not that Jonathan is against centaurs, no. He thinks they're really smart magical creatures. It's just that he's not really fond of them actually they're part of his worst fears. He did have a back story behind but it's a long story and it was a very long time ago. He's been trying his best to overcome that fear and little by little, he's been progressing.
Jonathan stepped in and sat down in the middle. Divination is not his strongest subjects but it's not his weakest as well. Average more like it. He just needs to develop love for the subject. He put his things on the side and looked at the professor. Oh right. "Hello Professor" his head bowed slightly as he greeted.

Gideon had the feeling something had been up when he learned the divination classroom had been moved from the top of one of the towers to the first floor. It just didn't make any sense to just move it for no reason even if Hogwarts and its staff were known to not follow much reason. And if he had payed attention to his readings of history he would have registered that it had happened once before while his great great aunt had been a professor and deputy headmistress at Hogwarts.
However he didn't so as he entered the classroom, Gideon was greeted with the same surprise as most of his fellow students...the presence of a centaur in the room. To his merit he did his best not to show any surprise not wanting to affend. "Good day..." he greeted politely not sure about adding the title until he heard Kurumi say it before him. "Professor," he added moving to take a seat. Did she know him...Gideon would certainly have to ask after class.

Hugo didn't like Divination. He was horrible at it, too. But this was Divination from a centaur, so he wouldn't miss it. "Hello, professor Thereos," he said to the professor he'd met before when the classroom was much darker and much dustier and smiled at him upon entering the classroom. He took a seat next to Kurumi and waited for class to start.

Marilyn was BEYOND upset. Entering the room, she glanced everyone before taking a seat.
When she tried to be nice to someone not worth it...only to have it thrown back in her face, it was done. That girl was so done she didn't even KNOW IT. *shifty*
The Professor was already here? Oh well..."Hello, Professor."

Divination was probably the most useless form of magic known to man. It was a fact as far as Lexi Kennedy was concerned. Hmph. She had to admit she was rather curious about the centaur professor man. Heh.
Entering the classroom she smiled brightly at him and said, "Good day, Professor Thereos!" Yep she was bouncy and smiling and such. Perhaps this professor would speak better English than the Viking dude that teaches Runes... and less creepy than Shaw. Anywho... Lexi made her way to a seat in the back and plopped down.

Good thing someone told Lana where the Divination class was. She would be so lost in this castle if it wasn't for the older years.
Lana saw someone waiting at the front door. He certainly did shock her. "Hello.. Professor?" she said with a slight smile. She entered the classroom and took a seat. I hope someone I know walks in..

| HA-HA! VICTORY FOR THE SLYTHERINS!!! We DIDN'T have to trek ALL THE WAY TO THE TOWERS!!! EAT IT, GRYFFINDOR! EAT IT, RAVENCLAW! Jonathan was a happy child, and he waltzed right into Divination, where....
THERE WAS A HORSE-MAN!!!! "COOL!!!" The child exclaimed. I wonder if he'll let me ride him. We could have all sorts of Half-Human, Half-Horse adventures... Jonathan had actually dealt with Centaurs before.... Traversing the world and all that. ...But none of them let me ride them... Anyway, Jonathan eagerly made his way to a seat, front row, and was READY TO READ MINDS!!! |

Eino made way to the new Divination classroom, slightly confused as to why it had moved. Of course, everything made sense as soon as he step foot into the room and there was a huge centaur in it. It was SO COOL!! "Good day." He said as he proceeded inside the room. He wanted to run up to it, pet it, ride it, etc., but he had a feeling it wouldn't appreciate, so Eino just made his way to a seat next to Hugo. As he did he elbowed his friend lightly and gave him a OH-MY-MERLIN-DO-YOU-SEE-WHAT-I-SEE?! look, very discreetly, of course. After he sat down he tried to distract himself, to prevent him from rudely staring, by reviewing notes from last year's class.

Selina walked sadly into Divination. She did not want to be here with some Ministry goon teaching this class. Divination was, because of Selina's unique ability, a favorite class of hers, but only with Bishop teaching the class. Now this new person was just going to ruin everything and he was going to penalize her because of her usual... issues in Divination. She was NOT telling this man anything. Not if she had anything to say about it.
She entered Divination and looked at her Professor. As dryly as she could she remarked, "Morning Professor. She lowered her head to take her seat when she noticed... he was a horse. She dis a double take and looked back up at him with wide eyes. Clearing her throat as to not seem rude she sat down in her seat and looked at Kurumi. She eyed her as if to say watch ne in case something goes wrong.

Arya never attended divination, but because it was moved just a level above her common room, and because she knew there had to be reasons for the move, the prefect threw on her school uniform and headed up to the new classroom. And she was right. "Hello, Professor." She half-smiled at him, then moved to the front of class beside Ivory.

Launna walked hastily into class and took a seat. Luckily, she'd spotted the message on the common room notice board about Divination being on the ground floor - she didn't envy those who had had to go all the way to the North Tower and back. She hoped lessons would always be down here - she didn't fancy having to find her way to the top tower every lesson, it would be too easy to get lost. She took out her books, quill and ink, then, slightly nervous about what she was going to be doing next, began to absent-mindedly twiddle her wand.

| Puff by day, snake by night | Mj's bestie | Always UP to Something... Minerva walked into class deep in thought. She was beginning to wonder if she was taking to many classes. As she walked in and took a seat she looked up. "Oh Hello umm Professor." Was that a man and a horse? She was beginning not to be surprised at anything in this world. |

Nika always looked forward to divination. Firstly because the class was her favorite. Secondly because the professor was her favorite. She skipped into the classroom with a smile on her face, but it disappeared when she saw the "professor". "Your not Professor Bishop." Had she really not been paying that much attention during the feast? Maybe she just didn't notice that Professor Bishop hadn't been sitting at the table.
WAIT. "AHHH! YO-YOUR A HORSE!" Is it normal for wizards to have horse-people teach lessons? Is it even normal to see horse-people!? She knew Hogwarts had ghosts, but not horse-people. She didn't even move from her spot right in front of her Professor. Why weren't the other students freaking out. This can not be good. He is a horse-person.

He didn't want to make the professor think he was laughing at him. Because he didn't. Because Centaurs were epic. Good thing Hugo already made a first impression on him, hopefully a good impression. Probably not, he was kind of distracted by the fact that he was a FRIGGIN' CENTAUR at the time. But everything was alright. He hoped. Straighter face. He looked at Eino's notes. Lots of notes scribbled down. He awkwardly looked back at his own, blank parchment, where last year's notes should have been when he was almost asleep during the classes. Well, that was because... he had lost them... due to the amount of work and... SHUT UP.
