Charms Lesson Two
 

The charms classroom has been completely transformed from the last time you were here. Instead of the hard well polished stone floor, there is a a fluffy white carpet that covers the entire floor. Colourful cushions are also placed in neat rows where the desks and chairs usually stood. In the corner of the room stands a large container filled with balls.

There is a sign just outside the door to the room in bold flashing letters :

Please remove your shoes and place them in your book bag or in to the side of the class. As is usual ensure that you are properly attired and neat. When you do enter, pick a cushion and sit on it, keep talking to a minimum.

There professor is standing at the front of the class with her arms folded waiting for you all to be seated.

Silvia headed for Charms class, pausing just down the hall from the classroom to doublecheck that her uniform was perfect. Then she stepped up to the door and stopped to read the sign next to it. Huh? Why did they need to remove their shoes? Silvia quickly slipped her shoes off and put them in her bag. Then she stepped in the classroom. Wow, it looked very different from usual. Not something she was expecting. "Hello Professor," she said as she made her way over to a blue cushion in the second row.

Hannah made her way to the second Charms lesson of the term. The sign outside the door caught Hannah's eyes. Take off their shoes? She wasn't really happy about the fact that she would be smelling the feet of others. Hopefully everbody took care of themselves. Gross.

She took off her shoes and did a double take around the room. Everything was different. It looked so...plush. Hannah spotted the professor. "Hello professor." She always spoke when she walked into a room. Almost always anyways. She was one of the first ones there so she picked out a cushion and plopped down.

Knowing how this new professor liked things to be in her class, Nora made sure that she looked perfect for the Charms lesson. No stray hair out of her ponytail, and her uniform was all neat. She was surprised when she entered the room to see that they'd be super comfortable on that fluffy carpet and lots of pillows.

Taking her shoes off, she placed them by the side of the classroom, but not before smiling at the professor. "Hello, professor," she said, and chose a green pillow to sit on. Like the proud Slytherin she was, she liked green. Heh, she still had that green streak in her hair.

Whoah... this was pretty different from the last time he was here....

Vickers read that flashing note and quickly slipped out of his school shoes, lining them neatly by the side of the door. He padded onto the carpet and greeted the Professor "Good Day Professor Bellaire." he said with a polite nod, almost tempted to bow from the waist. This kinda reminded him of a Japanese room see.

He turned and selected a cushion then sat quietly onto it, waiting for the class to start.

Jordan walked in, and found a completely odd way of the Charms Classroom. Cushions, nice carpet and little balls. What is going on in here? Jordan thought to himself, the new Professor has gone crazy, and the Professor asked for the students to take off their shoes. This must've been for the extremely nice carpet.

He took his shoes off and placed them inside his muggle-made backpack, and set it down. "How are you today, Professor Bellaire?" Jordan said looking rather confused.

Laura looked confused. "Professor why do we have to remove our shoes?" Seriously maybe people had stinky feet and if that was the case Laura didn't want to faint because of the smell and secondly would the Professor be joining in, standing next to the Professor she waited for his answer.

Oh. Look. Another Charm lesson. Messer was quite enjoying the last lesson, its fun. When he was about to enter the classroom, the young Hufflepuff noticed there's a sign, it said they need to take off their shoes. Quickly he took off his shoes and placed them by the side of the classroom neatly. Before he entered the classroom, Messer checked his appearance once more because Professor Bellaire is a neat person.

The classroom was a bit different from the last time he was here, instead of the usual hard floor, there's a fluffy carpet. "Hello, Professor Bellaire" he greeted his charm Professor with a smile and then picked one of the yellow pillow to sit on.

Justin walked into the classroom and greeted the professor.
" Good day, Professor Bellaire. Good to see you. I look foward to the lesson as Charms is one of my favourite subjects. " he said as he gave a friendly smile.
Then he chose a seat near the front of the class. He picked a nice green pillos to sit on and placed his schoolbag next to him and waited for class to begin.

Nigel walked into his 2nd charms class and was amazed by how much has changed. He did love how the rug feels on his socks. He was a least a little puzzled about why the room looked that way but he assumed the professor will tell the class when she wanted to.

He walks over to the professor and says Hello Professor, I like the carpet with a smile on his face because he really did like it. He then turned and noticed the bouncy balls, which he immediately wanted to play with them, but stopped short of running to them when he realized everybody would be watching him. So he quietly took a cushion and found a empty spot to sit down on it.

ZOMG. It was like a soft play area.

Theodore kicked off his shoes at the door, put them in his bag, and placed it to the side of the room. And THEN, he did a sort of dive onto a heap of the cushions. Everything was so much more satisfying when shoes were removed, he always found.

"THIS IS SO COOL."

AND THIS IS WHY CHARMS WAS HIS FAVOURITE CLASS.

Theo was also hoping for another gold star this lesson. Oh yea, he had not forgotten.

"Hi, professor!!!" He beamed, spreading his hands along the soffffffffffffft carpet. After his little moment of excitement was over, Theodore perched himself upon a bright green cushion, crossed his legs, and sat all proper-like.

At first when Sarah saw the sign she was surprised. Yet obediently following orders she dutifully took of her shoes. Upon making sure the bottom of her shoes were clean. (They were, even Srah knew better then to come to charms with mud caked soles on her shoes), she places them in her bag. She opened the door and took in the fluffy carpet and the cushions. AS pink cushion caught her eye immediately. As her stocking-ed feet relaxed in the fluffy depths of the carpet, she made her way to her pink cushion. Before taking a seat she said "Hello Proffessor" then she plopped down. Instinctively she moved her knees up to her chin and then hugged them. Then she remembered herself and the class she was attending, she straigned out her legs and sat in a more ladylike position.

Today, Ira had really checked twice to see if everything on her uniform was prim and proper or not. Nope, she wasn't really too keen to being kicked out from class.

She was just about to enter the class, when she saw the notice posted outside. Waiting back, she carefully read each and every word. Gah! The usual no talking instructions... But wait.. shoes in the bag? Why? Anyways, she followed the instructions.

And then she saw the class. Was this the same classroom? Opening her mouth in a big O and quickly shutting it close, she looked around and grinned. This was looking fun!

Before going towards her seat cushion, Ira greeted the Charms Professor, "Hello Professor!" Did she need to mention how cool these cushions and the mat and those balls were?

Now which colored cushion to choose? Which looked the coziest? The yellow ones? Nope.. the red ones! Finally Ira selected an Orange colored cushion and sat down. Or rather plopped down.

So what were they all gonna do? Pillow Fight? Or rather cushion fight? Hehe.... that sure would be fun!

“Remove my shoes?” Mordred mouthed the words as he read the sign outside the Charms classroom. He looked down and made a face. “Bellaire wants our shoes removed, when I just polished it?” he thought bitterly as he removed it from his feet and placed it inside his book bag. He made sure that his appearance was neat, since their professor was a neat freak. He sighed and got inside the classroom wherein a soft, white carpet greeted his feet.

Looking at it, he can’t help but wonder, why the set-up? He looked around and saw the professor waiting for the rest of the students to arrive. And by the looks of it, he was one of the first to be there. “Good day, Professor.” Mordred greeted Bellaire and picked up a green cushion and found a nice spot somewhere at the back, and sat on it.

Hehehe.
 

Although João felt a little ill--the cold weather of Britain was no good to his fragile Brazilian body--he still made it to the class because Charms played an essential role in his NEWTs. With a handkerchief in his hand, eyes a little bloody due to his cold, he entered the class without paying attention to the instructions at first. "Hello prof--" he was saying, but he was cut short when his eyes fell on the instructions. He frowned. He didn't want his feet to be any colder than they were by removing his shoes. But he either removed them or left the class and miss it for his NEWTs... he chose the first option and removed them, putting them where everyone else had done and entered the classroom once again, looking around a little confusedly to decide where to sit.

His eyes fell on Paulie then and he decided to sit with him. He didn't particulary like the guy, but he didn't hate him either. He was just sick with working people younger than fifth years, so he wanted to choose his partner this time himself, if they were going to do any partnering. Plus, he wanted them all to understand his hostility was only for Adam.

Thus, smiling at the guy, he made his way towards him and sat down on the cushion next to his.

"Hello again," he said with a voice that was as bright as it could get with illness. "I hope you don't mind me sitting here." Better to ask him before, right?

Paulie was squishing down further into his cushion, trying to figure out how best to situate himself so that he'd be the most comfortable. Eventually, he found a position where he was quite relaxed. No shoes, either. Man, this class was great for lounging today!

He heard a voice then, speaking to him. Sounded kinda nasally. When the Lion looked up, he found himself staring at Joao. "Hi.." he greeted back, the reserve still evident in his voice because this cordial behavior from the Slytherin was still new to him. And also because he wasn't over the state of his best mate's face. The other boy took a seat on the cushion beside him and even soooort of asked about Paulie being okay with him sitting there. Huh. "As long as ya don't get me sick." Or punch him in the face. But those were pretty much the only stipulations.

Selina lugged her bag on her back as she made it down to Charms. All the while she was double checking that her outfit was not in disarray. The last class Professor Bellaire had been a real stickler for a neat and tidy uniform. She was not accustomed to having her uniform so closely inspected. True, there was a dress code, but no one really followed the dress code super strictly. Usually, Selina left her tie loosely tied and her shirt was not typically tucked in, but she had to make sure she was up to Bellaire's standards. Loosing points was not something she wanted to do.

When she arrived at the door, she was glad that she had taken the time to get her outfit in order. Bellaire had specifically asked everyone to be neat and tidy, as well as take off their shoes. She felt this was an odd request, but she did as she was told and then entered the room while stuffing her shoes in her bag.

Walking over to Bellaire she said, "Hello Professor Bellaire." With a curt nod she made her way over to the cushions although she did not sit down. Class hadn't started.

Eh? they were supposed to take off their shoes? Well, that was nothing new for the fourth year because thanks to his Asian heritage he had learned to take his shoes off at home. He just never did it at school because he didn't want to be weird.

He set his shoes with the others before entering the classroom and as he walked on the soft carpet he straightened his Slytherin tie. Daichi tried to flatten his hair a bit but there was always a patch that stuck out and he couldn't do anything about it. unless he shaved his head... "moooorning Professor~!" he smiled and waved enthusiastic with his arm so that the button on the sleeve unbuttoned. The snake didn't care though. He was too busy picking out a orange colored pillow that he wanted to sit on.

Oakey came to the Charms class, when he saw that the room had been changed. There was also Large sign outside. Remove my shoes, and put them in my bag? This sounded ridiculous, couldn't she just not have a fancy fluffy white carpet. He removed his shoes anyways, but did not put them in his bag. Oakey always took walks around the grounds so his shoes were always covered in dirt and other things. He had just come from the Magical Creature Sanctuary and was sure he may have stepped in some of the animals droppings. So he left them to the side of the class near the entrance. Hopefully no one will trip over his shoes as they came in. He stepped onto the carpet and felt the fluffiness of it through his socks. He nabbed a yellow cushion and brought it to the back of the class where he spotted Mordy sitting. He he moved across the carpet and nodded to the Charms Professor and said Lovely day today isn't it Professor Bellaire. He sat the cushion down and sat on top of it. Hey Mordy he said, mind if I sit beside you?
