Winter was setting in to the grounds and with it came a whole new set of responsibilities for taking care of the growing dragon known as Roro. Dragons were wild creatures and by nature liked to have free roam of wherever they were living; however, having a dragon at an educational institution meant that Professor Williamson had to take certain safety precautions when getting said dragon ready for winter.
Today, he had set up the barn for an afternoon full of work; the students didn't know it yet, but they were all going to be acting as dragonologists in training today. First things first though, they had to get here, and Willy had to finish setting up.
Sitting just outside the barn door was a horseshoe-shaped assortment of hay bales, all of which had been charmed to feel as though one was sitting on a sun-warmed rock. Inside the open barn, and just visible to those sitting on the hay bales, was a giant, emptybaby pool and something that looked like a big harness....
No professor was in sight though. While you wait for class to start, why not take a seat and at least keep your bum warm?
Time to wrap up? No! He couldn't even get to touch it! He eyed the little thing and tried not to imagine how ferocious it would become. He would avoid it then... right now, he would get as much fun as he could. Because Roro really looked innocent. To them, at least.
So, halting in front of the professor, he hesitated for a moment, then decided to go for it. "Well, eh, thanks for that nice walk, I guess," he said, trying to get a quick pat on its head before turning away to take his place next to the pool.

A bath? In baby oil? That sounded rather messy...
A small frown tugging at her lips, Kurumi helped her team steer Roro back towards the professor and reluctantly handed the leash back over when Sierra spoke. "Not necessarily," Kurumi said in a matter of fact tone. "All it is is a chemical process within all living things' stomachs. Roro did just have a rather large meal before we all walked him, so that was digesting and decomposing because of the acids in his stomach which forms gases." Kurumi sort of nodded after saying this. Roro was just being a growing dragon, nothing to be ashamed of - in case he was. "That gas has to go somewhere." If it didn't, well, THEN Roro would be sick.
Kurumi leaned forward a bit again and gave Roro a soft pat on his back. He had been SUCH a good boy.
Thank you, Sherlock Holmes...
Really? She sarcastically thought to herself. I hadn't thought of that yet... DUH, HOLLINGBERRY. "Yes, I know," she said, "but that wasn't just any normal bodily function. That dragon definitively ate something that didn't agree with it." The dragon smelled terrible. Maybe it was the way the dragon practically ate like a vicious hog when it was given that bucket of slop. Either way, Papa Willy needed to tend to his baby.

Of course the whole thing won’t be complete without Ms. Hollingberry explaining everything to them as if farting was rocket science. “Kurumi, we know that. And yes, dragons have the same right as humans to release gas...but seeing that they can’t speak or excuse themselves they have the right to do so..in public. Unlike you...” he trailed off and looked at her trying his best not to laugh. The boy still thinks that Kurumi made that sound. He was a bit surprised not to hear anything from Sierra though.
Looking up at Professor Williamson, Mordred along with the Toot team, made their way toward him and gave back his precious Roro. “It was an interesting walk professor.” He said as he gave him his leash. “Roro’s amazing!...He made Kurumi fart.” Magical creature, right? With all his might, he pulled a poker face, turned his back to the professor and stood with the rest of the students and waited for his next instruction.
Sierra bit her bottom lip so hard she thought she might draw blood soon. She was trying to keep from laughing so hard, though. Ohhh, man, Mordred. You are so scoring brownie points with your prefect right now. She did, however, shoot him a warning glare. As funny as this was, he could get in trouble for letting Willy overhear him. They'd get a good laugh out of it laughter, though.
Heh.
"I agree. Good lesson, Professor," she said. It wasn't all that great, but it didn't hurt to suck up every now and then, did it? Could they go now?!

Zack was still very nervous about the whole dragon thing but at last, he could at least make himself hold one of the leash. He was standing there looking at the dragon and Anya doing something around the nose of the dragon though he wasn't sure if that was safe.
He knew something bad could happen. What if the dragon got angry or something? Anya was behaving as if that was a cat. Zack was just about to stop but then suddenly the dragon sneezed so hard that all of his inside from his nose were on Anya. For a second he was to laugh so hard looking at what just happened infront of him. Then stopped he knew that would not be nice of him. And there it was, Anya was screaming and kind of running or what was that he didn't know. But all he knew was that he was trying his best not to laugh. He was the one so scared of dragon but the dragon was funny! And now Zack was starting to feel good. After all, this wouldn't he that tough. He looked at Anya not showing any sign of laughter in his voice and said "Anya, are you alright? Maybe you should tell professor to use the cleaning spell on you." he mentioned a bit of help. does the cleaing spell work of humans or only on cauldrons he didn't know but it was worth trying.
It seemed the hankerchief wasn't enough for the younger girl and Anya freaked out about the snot which surprised him a little. The second year was usually brave about things even the unexpected. "Woah....Anya....easy...its okay," he remarked his hands up trying to calm her down especially as she stared wide-eyed at him. Wasn't easy to do when she was covered with dragon snot.
"I don't think you'll be catching dragonpox...and nae they're not acidic." At least he didn't remember them being mentioned as such. When Anya started running around and flailing, the older Gryffindor reached out to grab a gentle hold on her, this time succeeding on passing some of Roro's gift onto himself. It wouldn't do to add injury to the situation. At Zack's suggestion of the cleaning spell, Gideon figured it wouldn't hurt. "I can use the spell and help ye myself but ye need to stand still Anya."

Minerva looked at the dragon as he started to sleep. "OH How cute is that." she said as she stopped humming, but then that did put them in a situation. "Well Let's try to talk with him, but if that doesn't work maybe the professor will need to come over and get his baby. " She looked at Roro not wanting to get close to his face, "Roro want to head over to daddy? Let's go see daddy he wants to give you a bath." She hoped Roro liked baths because if not they could be in more trouble then just a sleeping dragon. She glanced to see if the professor was watching and hoping if he saw the Dragon sleeping might just come over without them calling. She looked at her group, "Everyone doing okay? Hopefully talking with him and not humming anymore might help.."

Laura heard what the Professor said and she wished she had a horses whip that way she could get Roro back to the Professor but then she saw the look on the dragons face. "Mr Dragon can I take off your lead." Laura asked before deciding to shout over the Professor. "PROFESSOR!!!!!!!!!" Laura screamed. "HOUSTAN WE HAVE A PROBLEM." Laura didn't want to touch the Dragons lead, it would bite whoever did take off the lead. "Roro won't let us take off his lead." Okay so she hadn't tried but the Professor didn't know that.
Well, Zhenya had a pet cat who was lovely and loved cuddles. And she certainly would not want a pet dragon, ever. Or even be near a dragon again. She still felt very jumpy and scared, so when Laura yelled out for the Professor she jumped from being startled. What was wrong with her? She was so scared in this lesson. The dragon... maybe she had a phobia of dragons? That would explain it but why was she so scared? What could Roro do to her in front of the Professor?
She looked and shook her head at Laura, who clearly hadn't tried to take the leash off. She was glad, though, to see that maybe Laura had finally made sense in leaving the dragon alone. She was scared Laura might have gone up and tried to pat it or rub its belly. That would be a disaster.

Looking at her group of Jory, Angelina and Narumi and little Roro. After listening to the Professor she said We have to bring Roro back to Professor Williamson now...Sadly... She walked over to her group so that they could get a hold of Roro and bring him back to the Professor. But she didnt really know how they would get a hold of the little dragon.

"Aye...maybe," Gideon remarked as Anya commented on Roro's actions when able to speak in the fast-paced movement of the dragon. As for the question of treats that first Tag and then Anya brought up he couldn't be sure and offered a slight one-armed shrug as he awaited a reaction to his pulling on the leash that he held. It wasn't too long in coming and a positive one at that which was surely good.
It seemed the dragon was going to be obediant rather then troublesome as Roro slowed down in reaction to his and Tag's instructions and his pull. "Thats a good Roro," Gideon replied with a pet , the boy doing his best to be good to the creature if not with the treats that the younger lion promised. Professor Williamson would surely provide any of that...right? Seeing as none of the teams had anything to give.
Gideon thought about getting Roro to move again so they could continue their walk when Anya stepped in front of creature inspecting his muzzle. The prefect kept an eye on things in case it wasn't a good idea...Williamson had mentioned being careful around Roro's head. He was about to say something when he was interrupted, the dragon letting out a large sneeze and covering the younger Gryffindor with dragon snot.
Ewww...
Speaking of Williamson, the professor was calling them back so they could give Roro a bath. Gideon briefly wondered if that planned bath should include Anya then realizing it would probably be best for her later on. "Here..." he said offering a hankerchief he had to the girl to give some kind of help for now. "Come on Roro..." he said then, turning and pulling on his lease to guide the dragon back to the start, figuring his group would hopefully just follow along. "Here ye go, Professor."

Roro hadn't been expecting that one little Gryffindor to take his sneezing so badly; and to be truthful, he was a little hurt by her accusation that he was going to give her dragonpox. Didn't she have any idea how useful dragon bogies were? And dragon snot; surely it was an ingredient in dozens of life-saving potions!
Hanging his head and dragging his tail, Roro obediently led his group back to Daddy and sat still while Daddy dealt with the hooman he'd sneezed upon. It had only been an accident, Daddy!
Well, maybe it was good thing their walk was over now.

Nigel had no idea what to do in this situation.

As the little blonde watched the dragon settle down, its big droopy lids struggling to stay open, she couldn't help but think how CUTE the little guy was. She just wanted to cuddle his face. BUT she didn't, knowing he didn't like that. And then Professor Williamson was calling them and telling them to bring Roro to take his bath. Uhhh...but what if the baby was like...erm...sleeping? Apparently the other members of the group were just as confused on what to do as she was. "Um...maybe if we ask him nicely he'll come. He might like baths." And Ella sidestepped a bit in case a wing came flying at her and spoke to the dragon. "Hey little Roro, you're a good boy, aren't you? Come on baby, it's time for your bath!"

"He doesn't look like he has entirely dozed off, maybe if he hears his daddy's aka Professor Williamson's voice he might perk up or Ella's idea might work too. I suggest...one...we try waking him by gently shaking on our leashes or do what Ella is doing and encourage him to wake up by telling him what he's going to be doing next. If he continues to lie there, then I guess we either try option 2...and that is to levitate him to Professor Williamson, and I'm not sure whether either Roro or Professor Williamson would like us doing that....or option 3, telling Professor Williamson that Roro is taking a snooze. " Alyssa didn't think either option 2 or 3 sounded great.
"What do you guys want to do? I'll do whatever you all decide."

But he liked Ella's idea of encouraging to wake Roro up slowly and tell him his daddy wants to give him a bath. "I like the Ella's idea, lets tell him that his daddy wants to give him a bath". Hopefully this idea works because this seems like the only real good idea we have thought Nigel.

"Right. So we're going to talk to him and convince him that bath time is fun. Since he may still be irritated with me, I'll let you guys do that while I hold his leash and talk to him from behind you guys "
So still holding on to the leash but making sure that she wasn't pulling too tight on it, Alyssa tried talking to the baby dragon. "Bath time Roro. Lots and lots of water to play in it....and Daddy is there waiting for you. Don't you want to see Daddy and go bath bath?" Alyssa encouraged Roro.
'Please get up RoRo.' Alyssa thought to herself. 'If not for me, at least for the younger kids. They are really trying their best.'

Hadn't these kids ever heard of the phrase, "Never tickle a sleeping dragon"?
Well apparently they had, because none of them tickled Roro, they only talked to him, and the dragon obliged by opening his sweeeeepy, sweeeeeeepy eyes and standing up. He moved back to his Daddy as if in a trance and then lay back down obediently, resting his big dwagon jaw on top of his big dwagon paws.
Good job, group.

Sierra tried to stifle her laugh, but it came out anyway. She'd have to pat ole Mordred on the back once they were back in the common room. Excellent. Too bad he didn't ask Kurumi that very question so loudly the whole class could hear!
Perhaps all the dictionaries you eat? Sierra thought to herself.
...and was that dragon smiling?! UGH! How rude! Sierra would just be glad when this dragon walk was over. She hadn't enjoyed it all. Nope. Not only tiny bit. The only silver lining in the class had been a drenched Kurumi Hollingberry and that time when Mordred accusing her of gasing out the class!
...and now the pony ride, er dragon walk, was over. "Professor?" Sierra asked, waving the hand not on the leash in the air. "I think Roro's sick..." Still holding on to the leash, though, she started to guide Roro back over to WWW. Here, Papa Dragon, you can have your stinky baby back.

Roro was still doing a dwagon grin as he got led back to his dad. He thumped his tail hard on the ground as settled down with his back to the kids and his head facing his daddy.
"EORK!" the dragon seemed to agree with Mordred's assessment of their walk. There was nothing quite as good as a walk after a big meal. It was the best way to digest food and gas, after all.

After a while, though, it became increasingly difficult to keep up, because, well..., little humans get tired sometimes.
Luckily, though, it was time to finish up. So they had to bring Roro back over to Professor Williamson. Slowing to a light jog, the second year made her way over to the professor with the rest of her team, before handing him the leash and moving out of the way so that they could get the next set of instructions. For this part, Lily stuck somewhat close to Stella... in case they needed groups again for the next activity....

A little to quickly for Addie's petite, 4'4" body. Nope her little legs couldn't take her that fast. "Hey Roro," she said patting his head gently. "Want to go a little slower?" Please. Addie made a puppy dog face at the little dragon strutting its stuff.
WHAAAAATTTTT? They had to give the dragon back.
NO. Addie didn't want to stop walking Roro. It was fun! Really fun, and now they were giving the dragon a bath. Well that might be fun also, as long as they got to help. Then it would be all good, and Addie wouldn't be as mad at the professor for making them stop walking the dragon. Addie walked with the dragon and her team over to the professor. "Bye Roro," she said giving the dragon one last nice pat. "It was fun walking you, even if you did go a little fast." Addie handed her leash back and looked expectantly at the professor. Please say we get to help give Roro a bath, was all that her mind was trying to telepathically tell the teacher.

Both girls still seemed to be enjoying the walk, but they still seemed to be tiring out. She didn't want to have to figure out how to carry two exhausted girls back to the front of the barn, after all, even if there was always the possibility of trying to carry one and levitating the other. In fact, she had started to think about speaking to the dragon herself shortly before Addie had gone and done so.
They managed to get back around the barn, luckily enough and she heard Professor Williamson announcing that they were going to be bathing the dragon next. Oh, fun, she thought, half-facetiously. She wasn't exactly looking forward to ending up covered in... she looked in the baby pool as she handed her leash to the professor... baby oil. Would Impervius even work on that?, she wondered, stepping back again and resting a hand delicately on Lily's shoulder as the tiny redhead had remained almost glued to her side. She couldn't tell if that meant the girl was still nervous or just wanted to make sure she had a partner she could trust if they had another activity, but she was perfectly fine with it either way. They'd managed well enough on the walk, after all.

So, halting in front of the professor, he hesitated for a moment, then decided to go for it. "Well, eh, thanks for that nice walk, I guess," he said, trying to get a quick pat on its head before turning away to take his place next to the pool.
Roro thumped his tail some more, very happy as this group returned him to Daddy. He even let the one boy that looked more like a toasted crisp than anything pat him on the head, and tried not to appear too evil as his tongue lolled out of his dwagon mouth.
That had been a fun walk.

" he craned his neck to find where the Dragonkeeper was, unsure if the other man would have some dead rats stashed away in his pockets.
He petted the dragon as encouragingly as they went through their paces, given how the dragon was setting an easy walk he stepped back juuust a bit to allow the younger Claws a bit more control with the Dragon, allowing them to build their confidence with the creature.
And as he heard the Professor call out he stepped around the dragon in a way to direct their group back towards the barn "Time to go back Roro " he crooned again, glancing at the girls to gently lead the dragon back to where Professor Williamson stood. As they drew nearer he spotted the now filled inflatable pool with clear liquid he wrongly assumed as water. He handed the leash over to the Professor "He's a good dragon." he said smiling, petting Roro on his back just like he did earlier. Eyes goes back to the pool "Does he use some kind of.... soap? Shampoo? A soft brush?" he's merely going by what he did when caring for smaller, Muggle reptiles pets like iguanas. He has no clue if any of that process can be applied to a dragon.

"Maybe next time we'll have a treat for you," though she wasn't exactly sure where to get any or what kind of food would be considered a dragon treat. She handed over the leash to the professor.
So Roro was getting a bath next. That seemed like it would be interesting to see. She wondered whether or not Roro liked baths; many non-magical pets didn't, and some did. If he didn't, then it might result in a really big mess. So hopefully he liked them, or at least tolerated it.

Chelle nodded sadly at Vickers' response. "Yes, there certainly are more neglected animals in the Muggle world," she replied.
Chelle went to hand over Roro back to Professor, along with her team. She glanced at the pool of oil next to the Professor.
Was that oil?
Sniff, sniff.
"Professor! Is this Johnson's baby?!" Chelle exclaimed. It sure did smell like it. She looked at the baby dragon, enviously. "Lucky baby," she said, petting him. Seriously, I'll bring him dragon treats next time.
Well, dis group got him back to his dad just fine, with Roro sort of wagging his tail all da way. Like the one hooman, he sniffed toward the pool of baby oil and tried to contain his excitement at seeing all the liquid there.
He was gonna DWINK it. Dwink ALL da liquid!

Roro had slowed down nicely for these hoomans in the end, and he seemed to smile as the boy hooman handed his leash back to Daddy. Hehe. Fanks for da walk.

AND why did Laura have to keep going? "Laura! Shoosh, Roro is not a dog and... I Think he can understand you! Stop it before he eats you," she hissed at her friend. She didn't want her head to be Roro's dinner just because Laura kept calling it a dog.
Zhenya looked at Laura once WWW had finished talking. "You can take the leash off," she said quietly. She wasn't going near the Dragon who was probably developing fire right now to blow onto the group. IF she was being called a dog, she would want to do that.
She didn't want to touch Roro at all, she was still scared, even more scared than earlier in the lesson.

Laura heard what the Professor said and she wished she had a horses whip that way she could get Roro back to the Professor but then she saw the look on the dragons face. "Mr Dragon can I take off your lead." Laura asked before deciding to shout over the Professor. "PROFESSOR!!!!!!!!!" Laura screamed. "HOUSTAN WE HAVE A PROBLEM." Laura didn't want to touch the Dragons lead, it would bite whoever did take off the lead. "Roro won't let us take off his lead." Okay so she hadn't tried but the Professor didn't know that.

The dragon... maybe she had a phobia of dragons? That would explain it but why was she so scared? What could Roro do to her in front of the Professor?
She looked and shook her head at Laura, who clearly hadn't tried to take the leash off. She was glad, though, to see that maybe Laura had finally made sense in leaving the dragon alone. She was scared Laura might have gone up and tried to pat it or rub its belly. That would be a disaster.
Well these hoomans were just plain silly. Didn't they know the leashes were like connected to da harness? Roro just shook his head and waddled over to the professor, ignoring his 'handlers' entirely and not even caring whether or not he dragged them with him.
He sat down beside his Dad and stared directly at them while he licked his lips. Silly hoomans deserved to be EATED, they did.

Ella continued to talk to the little dragon, hoping he would wake up and go to his daddy so they wouldn't have to call Professor Williamson over. She was a bit surprised when she saw the baby's big eyelids flutter open. "You guys, it's working!" She whispered, a smile on her face.
As the little dragon rose off the ground and began walking back to his daddy, Ella followed along, still holding the leash in case he decided to fly away or something...which was unlikely now, especially because he was quite the tired little guy! "That's it, Roro...go see your daddy. Good boy." She said encouragingly, her smile widening at the sight of such an adorably sleepy creature.
And then they were back to Professor Williamson, and Roro was back down again, sleeping at the Professor's feet. The second year smiled at the dragon before letting go of her leash and smiling at the professor. "He really does like the singing, Professor." She said quietly, a small smile on her face. She had put a dragon to sleep...how flipping cool was that?!
Nigel was just waiting to see what the group was going to do about Roro. It came as such a relief when Roro opened his sleepy eyes and walked over to the Professor.
Nigel was happy they did not have to levitate him or call over the professor. It was even cute when Roro got back to his Daddy that he went right back to sleep by his leg.
Nigel returned his leash to the Professor and agreed with Ella that it looked like Roro really did like people singing to him.

PHEEEEEEEEEWWWWWW!!! Sophie felt great handing the leash back to professor Williamson. She didn't dare to say a word, just smiled and gave a thumbs up to baby dragon's daddy and her group again.
It was indeed kind of cute. The baby dragon, that is. Onlyyy... Sophie hoped she would never have to walk it again. She would be happy enough by just watching professor Williamson take care of the creature from a safe distance.
Riight... could she go sit down again? Far from the dragon. Yes?

Elijah was being a good 'Puff and attending his classes so he could get good grades and keep his parents happy and quit their naggin'. He didn't mind this class too much, though considering they were learning about DRAGONS and walking them and stuff.
Small fact about dragons: the fire they breathe is HOT, but not as HAWT as Elijah. No sirrrreeee. Nothing was as hot as Elijah. He knew it and he was certain the WORLD knew it, too, but just didn't let on.
He would help make them see.
He caught sight of a fellow Huffler' handing over the leash back to the Professor and decided that this would be the PERFECT opportunity to try and get people to understand his UNBELIEVABLE good looks.
He slowly creeped up behind the girl whose name he wasn't sure of, but with looks like his names didn't matter. Once he was RIGHT behind her he quickly jumped in front of her. Right in her line of vision.
Elijah casually pretended that he HADN'T just jumped in front of the girl and turned to face her, acting all embarrassed about the fact that she was looking at him (even if she wasn't). "Oh gawsh, so you noticed, huh?" He asked her, pretending to blush. "I know what you must be thinking. How can someone so attractive actually exist, right? I honestly don't know myself. I am pretty certain my genes are made of GOLD. It's so HARD to look away from my face, am I right? But it's not all fun. Being this gorgeous is HARD, I promise you that." He gave her his best, whitest, and most charming smile and added in a small wink for good measure.

Yeh. Girls LOVED a wink.
Sophie was still feeling freaked out and stressed by that lesson and the whole walking the dragon thing. She was being abnormally quiet because she wished from the bottom of her heart to just go back to her seat and wait for the lesson to finish.
"AAAHHH!" Sophie finally made a louder noise when that weird guy popped out of nowhere in front of her. "Wha-" She didn't even have the chance to say anything and the older Hufflepuff was already trailling off, talking so much nonsense she couldn't fully understand him. She watched the act of the guy wide eyed from the shock, but as he kept talking a smile started to spread across her face.
"HAHAHAHA!!!!" Yessss, she waited until he was done to crack up. Then she realised her loud laughter might freak out the DRAGON! and quickly covered her mouth with her hands, but had a really hard time trying to stop laughing.
When she managed to do so, she lowered her hands. "I'm sorry, but you sounded so funny!" Had she offended the guy? She hoped not... but his expressions were all very, very funny to Sophie. "I'm Sophie!" She added cheerfully.

Alyssa heaved a sigh of relief when Roro sleepily got up on hearing her team mates coaxing it to take a bath, and slowly made his way to where Professor Williamson stood before lying down again. She was more than happy to hand over her part of the leash to Roro's harness, back to Professor Williamson before turning to her fellow team mates.
"You guys were awesome. You definitely helped bail me out of that situation with Roro. Thanks alot." Alyssa thanked all of them.

Elijah was slightly confused as to why this girl was laughing at him. Maybe she was laughing because she had just realised how funny it was that she had NEVER seen someone so attractive in her life? Yeh, that was probably it...
Or so Elijah would have been happy to have thought, but she had to go on talking about how she thought he SOUNDED funny. "Sounded funny?" he responded, hurt creeping through his voice, "I.. I mean... I am quite hilarious, aren't I? A total joker! And have you ever heard such HILARIOUS jokes come out of a mouth attached to such WONDERFUL bone structure, huh?"
"Pleasure to meet you Sophie. I'm Elijah, although i'm sure you already knew that because EVERYONE knows who I am. I bet it's a pleasure for you to meet me as well," he reaches out his hand. "Go on, this is your opportunity to touch me. Not many get the chance. But, I warn you: this hand may be SMOKIN HOT. Wouldn't want you to get burrrrrrneeeedddd."

Off in the distance he could hear another girl rattling on about something that was probably to do with the dragon. The dragon was cute, he couldn't deny that, but who cares about cuteness when you had his HAWTNESS standing right there. "Hey Soph, did you just hear that girl back there? She was totally just telling her friends how she was checking out my butt! I mean, I know I have a GORGEOUS set of buns, but does she have to be so LOUD about it? So embarrassing."

Oh, man... he did sound like she had hurt his feelings. "I'm so sorry!" She repeated, but still struggling to keep herself from chuckling. Since he went on about how funny he was, she felt it was okay to laugh for real. "Yeah, you're very funny!"Too funny indeed, haha!
She giggled some more as she reached out to shake his hand. "It's very nice to meet you too." Weirdo. Mehehehehe! But anyway, professor Williamson wouldn't like if they kept talking during class, right? "I think it's best if-"

??????????????????????????
"Um... she was actually talking to me too, you know..." Craazy duuuude! She was checking out his--- say what??? Sophie started wondering if there was something wrong with this guy. He should meet Edric. They'd be a funny duo. "You know what, why don't we sit down quietly until the class resumes?" Yes, crazy dude? Quietly, please! O_O Imagine if professor Williamson overheard this Hufflepuff talking these things! "Come on." She pulled him to where the hay bales were, where professor Williamson wouldn't hear him that easily. Hopefully.

OOC: Sorry guys! I didn't realise you both were talking to each other originally... we can just make it work, haha
See!? She agreed with him! He was hilarious and Sophie was obviously a smart girl and KNEW what she was talking about. He liked Sophie and liked how smart she was. She continued to giggle, but he was sure that was just out of nervousness at getting to speak to him. It happened. He was used to it.
Embarrassingly he didn't realise Sophie was friends with the girl whose mouth he had quite literally put words in. Even if she hadn't ACTUALLY said he had a nice butt, she was totally thinking it anyway. Elijah could totally read girl's minds and they were ALWAYS thinking about him, obviously. What else was there to think about when he was around?
All of a sudden Sophie started DRAGGING him to the seats. Gosh, this girl was OBSESSED with him and she was now forcing him to sit next to her so people would think she had hit it off with the hottest guy in the entire world. The things girls did to get noticed.
It truly was so hard being him.
He decided to go along with it and sit next to the girl, scared that he would hurt her feelings and she might end up crying or something. Tears were scary. Very scary.
"How hot do you think a dragon's fire breath is, Soph? Hm? Probably REAL hot right?"
He raised his hand to ask the Professor for an answer to this very technical, class-related and scientific question, "Professor, on a scale of 1 to me, how hot is a dragon's fire breath? Sophie was wanting to know, right Soph?"
He cupped his hands over his mouth and whispered to the Professor, "She is totaaaalllly obsessed with me." He was probably loud enough that Sophie could probably hear but at least it GAVE the impression of subtlety. "You know how it is, Prof. You can probably relate."

Hanging his head and dragging his tail, Roro obediently led his group back to Daddy and sat still while Daddy dealt with the hooman he'd sneezed upon. It had only been an accident, Daddy!
Well, maybe it was good thing their walk was over now.
Hadn't these kids ever heard of the phrase, "Never tickle a sleeping dragon"?
Well apparently they had, because none of them tickled Roro, they only talked to him, and the dragon obliged by opening his sweeeeepy, sweeeeeeepy eyes and standing up. He moved back to his Daddy as if in a trance and then lay back down obediently, resting his big dwagon jaw on top of his big dwagon paws.
Good job, group.
Roro was still doing a dwagon grin as he got led back to his dad. He thumped his tail hard on the ground as settled down with his back to the kids and his head facing his daddy.
"EORK!" the dragon seemed to agree with Mordred's assessment of their walk. There was nothing quite as good as a walk after a big meal. It was the best way to digest food and gas, after all.
Roro thumped his tail some more, very happy as this group returned him to Daddy. He even let the one boy that looked more like a toasted crisp than anything pat him on the head, and tried not to appear too evil as his tongue lolled out of his dwagon mouth.
That had been a fun walk.
Well, dis group got him back to his dad just fine, with Roro sort of wagging his tail all da way. Like the one hooman, he sniffed toward the pool of baby oil and tried to contain his excitement at seeing all the liquid there.
He was gonna DWINK it. Dwink ALL da liquid!
Roro had slowed down nicely for these hoomans in the end, and he seemed to smile as the boy hooman handed his leash back to Daddy. Hehe. Fanks for da walk.
Well these hoomans were just plain silly. Didn't they know the leashes were like connected to da harness? Roro just shook his head and waddled over to the professor, ignoring his 'handlers' entirely and not even caring whether or not he dragged them with him.
He sat down beside his Dad and stared directly at them while he licked his lips. Silly hoomans deserved to be EATED, they did.
Once Roro was back by his side, leashes in hand, Williamson breathed a tiny sigh of relief that nothing major had happened to his baby. Then he turned his attention to the students, and the never ending drama that was his students.

"He's not sick," Willy snorted dismissively at Sierra. "He just had a little gas, like all babies do." Deal wit it.

"PROFESSOR!" the young Gryffindor squealed in a high pitch voice. "AmIgoingtodiefromdragonpox?!" she asked in a rush.
Dragon pox was a real disease, right?
She then stared wide-eyed at Gideon. "Aredragonbogeysacidic?" she asked in a rush.
Was she going to melt right then and there?
*flail* Why was nobody answering her quickly?!
She eyed the dragon bath. And what were the chances she was allowed to have a go in that before the dragon?
She flailed and ran in a bit of a circle. Somebody do something!
"PHILLIPS," Williamson barked, pointing his wand at the girl but not casting a spell yet. Moving targets were hard to hit, you know? "Anya, stand still like Gideon said. You're going to be fine. Dragon snot has been used in numerous potions before." Or so he thought.
"Hold still so I can siphon this off ya." He summoned up a jar and approached the girl, casting one glance at Roro that told him to SITSTILL.

"Ah, no, he doesn't," Williamson answered Vickers as he started drawing snot off Anya and depositing it into his jar. Hehe. Useful stuff. "I'll explain more about the bath here in a minute." Let him finish this snot stuff, man.

With all his might, he pulled a poker face, turned his back to the professor and stood with the rest of the students and waited for his next instruction.
William couldn't help it. Upon hearing the Slytherin's comment he just BURST OUT LAUGHING. The man was usually well-composed around students and semi-professional okay who were joking here but that comment just made him lose it, and he almost dropped the jar of Anya's dragon snot too.
Ah, Merlin. Willy wiped his eyes and gave the kid a grin. "Good one, good one. Ah. All right, take a seat, Mordred, and we'll talk about how to get smelly dragons clean."
He went back to cleaning up Anya, and once he had MOST of the snot off her, he drizzled water over her with his wand and then blasted her with a drying charm. "There, all better, kid?" Willy asked the little Gryffindor. "If you take this jar with you to the potions lab, I bet you can run some really cool experiments." So he handed the jar off to her with a little grin.

"LAURA, QUIT SHOUTING!" Williamson shouted back. Professional, see? "He's just a dragon. He plays stubborn sometimes. And you don't need to take the leash off anyway." Duh. It was attached to the harness.
"Just go sit down, okay?" Quit giving your professor gray hair.

Elijah casually pretended that he HADN'T just jumped in front of the girl and turned to face her, acting all embarrassed about the fact that she was looking at him (even if she wasn't). "Oh gawsh, so you noticed, huh?" He asked her, pretending to blush. "I know what you must be thinking. How can someone so attractive actually exist, right? I honestly don't know myself. I am pretty certain my genes are made of GOLD. It's so HARD to look away from my face, am I right? But it's not all fun. Being this gorgeous is HARD, I promise you that." He gave her his best, whitest, and most charming smile and added in a small wink for good measure.
Yeh. Girls LOVED a wink.

Or so Elijah would have been happy to have thought, but she had to go on talking about how she thought he SOUNDED funny. "Sounded funny?" he responded, hurt creeping through his voice, "I.. I mean... I am quite hilarious, aren't I? A total joker! And have you ever heard such HILARIOUS jokes come out of a mouth attached to such WONDERFUL bone structure, huh?"
"Pleasure to meet you Sophie. I'm Elijah, although i'm sure you already knew that because EVERYONE knows who I am. I bet it's a pleasure for you to meet me as well," he reaches out his hand. "Go on, this is your opportunity to touch me. Not many get the chance. But, I warn you: this hand may be SMOKIN HOT. Wouldn't want you to get burrrrrrneeeedddd."
Off in the distance he could hear another girl rattling on about something that was probably to do with the dragon. The dragon was cute, he couldn't deny that, but who cares about cuteness when you had his HAWTNESS standing right there. "Hey Soph, did you just hear that girl back there? She was totally just telling her friends how she was checking out my butt! I mean, I know I have a GORGEOUS set of buns, but does she have to be so LOUD about it? So embarrassing."

See!? She agreed with him! He was hilarious and Sophie was obviously a smart girl and KNEW what she was talking about. He liked Sophie and liked how smart she was. She continued to giggle, but he was sure that was just out of nervousness at getting to speak to him. It happened. He was used to it.
Embarrassingly he didn't realise Sophie was friends with the girl whose mouth he had quite literally put words in. Even if she hadn't ACTUALLY said he had a nice butt, she was totally thinking it anyway. Elijah could totally read girl's minds and they were ALWAYS thinking about him, obviously. What else was there to think about when he was around?
All of a sudden Sophie started DRAGGING him to the seats. Gosh, this girl was OBSESSED with him and she was now forcing him to sit next to her so people would think she had hit it off with the hottest guy in the entire world. The things girls did to get noticed.
It truly was so hard being him.
He decided to go along with it and sit next to the girl, scared that he would hurt her feelings and she might end up crying or something. Tears were scary. Very scary.
"How hot do you think a dragon's fire breath is, Soph? Hm? Probably REAL hot right?"
He raised his hand to ask the Professor for an answer to this very technical, class-related and scientific question, "Professor, on a scale of 1 to me, how hot is a dragon's fire breath? Sophie was wanting to know, right Soph?"
He cupped his hands over his mouth and whispered to the Professor, "She is totaaaalllly obsessed with me." He was probably loud enough that Sophie could probably hear but at least it GAVE the impression of subtlety. "You know how it is, Prof. You can probably relate."
William was about to launch into his explanation on dragon baths when he noticed some CHITTER CHATTER going on over in the Hufflepuff zone of the classroom. At first he thought it would be Alyssa, but no. The unidentified chatterer was some boy, who also had the audacity to ask him a question.
"Uh, I'm sorry you're so popular?" he made a face at the boy and ignored his question completely. Willy seriously doubted Sophie had been 'hitting on' this man-boy. Of course he could relate to the kid's imagined issue, but since Williamson really wasn't that lucky with the ladies, he wasn't even going to attempt to comment on that.
"Look, let's just focus on the dragon, all right? We've still got to give Roro a bath, and if he coats you all in baby oil, I doubt ANYONE will be feeling very 'hot'." Right then, onto the lecture.
"First things first: how does one bathe a baby dragon? And WHY does one need to bathe a baby dragon? Any guesses?"

Ella was kind of like O___o Because out of nowhere this random boy had slimed all over her bestie, Sophie, with his weird boy flirting, trying to get her friend into trouble. The worst part was, Professor Williamson had noticed and then the boy asked him a question! This kid had some serious guts...and apparently thought very highly of himself too. And what if he lost house points for Hufflepuff? That wouldn't be good.
Luckily, Professor Williamson seemed to know exactly how to deal with this Don Juan guy...by ignoring his ridiculousness and moving on to what was really important...BABY RORO.
How did one bathe a baby dragon? Clearly water was involved but what else? "Professor, You'd need a lot of water to bathe a baby dragon...And I'd imagine you'd bathe a baby dragon quite carefully...so he doesn't go all crazy and like-drown you or something..." That wouldn't be good! "And you bath a baby dragon to keep it healthy and clean...and so it doesn't smell."

The Professor GOT it. He GOT him. He understood. He was even sympathising with him about how it was so hard being popular. Elijah had just KNOWN that the Professor was just like him.
Williamson = A bro.
That being said, Elijah's 'bro' didn't answer Sophie's question (how rude) and proceeded to ask the class one of his own. Being quite the academic (HAH!) as well as a stud muffin, Elijah raised his hand and provided an answer, "They need baths so they can get themselves lil' dragon wifeys or hubbys. Afterall, being smelly isn't hot."
Elijah was clean. And hot.

He saw out of the corner of his eyes that some other girl was staring at him. She probably couldn't get over how attractive he was. He sent a wink her way just to make her day. That is what Elijah did. His sheer existence MADE people's days.

Did the fact that he was older than her make things weird for Sophie right now? Would it be weird if she just told him to shut up and be quiet during the lesson??
Sophie looked from him to professor Williamson, fearing the dragon freak would hear the... freak that was now sitting next to her and was still blabbing on. She opened her mouth to answer his question when Elijah was suddenly talking to professor Williamson.
She was totally obsessed--- O___________O "I'm not! Are you crazy??" She protested. Merlin, these Hogwarts guys were acting SO WEIRD lately! That would totally sound weird, seeing that she was younger than him, but... "Sorry about him, professor. He's just... a bit... out of his mind." Or was he always like that?? She turned to face him and whispered. "Be quiet, you'll get us into trouble!"
OH GOOD! Professor Williamson had pretty much ignored crazy Elijah. Good! Sophie sighed in relief and listened to his question. She had no idea of what to reply. Probably because she was still in shock with what had just happened. Walking the dragon was terrifying and now this Elijah guy was a total freak! She decided it was better to not guess this one. But it was probably not with water, as dragons breathed fire and all? But Roro was drinking water just a few minutes ago! Hm... baby oil... that didn't sound right... not for a bath at least...
Nigel was surprised by how much confidence that older hufflepuff, who was sitting with Sophie, had. He even asked if the Professor could relate with how popular he was. Nigel thought he would loss points for that but the Professor answered really fast and switched topics even faster.
But whatever back to the Professors question about bathing a dragon. "Professor, you need to bathe a baby dragon because nobody wants a smelly dragon"

Oh... so no brushes or shampoos or any of the sort, just plain water, which Vickers mentally noted until the younger Claw said something about the liquid in the pool being oil.
All of that was oil?
He was staring at the pool and wondering if this Johnsons person made a kind of oil that was fire-retardant when there was some noisy yelling coming from the back of the class. He turned to set his sights on a boy, wondering if he was complaining about the heat--which didnt make sense since practically all of Hogwarts was covered in snow-- when the Professor moved to the next step of the lesson and asked a question.
Right... why do they have to bathe a dragon? And actually what he really wants to know was why bathe a dragon in OIL? that may or may not set everybody on fire
Right Professor's question nfirst "We bathe the dragon to... keep his skin hydrated?" that didnt make any sense to him after having said that, but he was still stuck in baby dragon= giant iguana.

How? Why? Zhenya shrugged, wasn't it the same as any other creature? Careful not to use the word dog, Zhenya put her hand up and said "Professor do dragons like water? You could just lure them into the water with some treats and then let them splash around a bit. And you need to bathe them to keep them clean and healthy, just like any other creature."
She didn't want to help bathe the dragon. What if he was angry and snapped at them all for putting him in water? What if he was really happy he got a bit too active and ate someone... by accident. Or... learned how to blow fire? Or smoke? No, she just wanted to stand behind the crowd when it happened.

Alyssa had seen the young Hufflepuff talking to Sophie. He reminded her of another friend of hers. Then what she overheard next made her gasp and then sputter."WHA.... I was not checking out his...Merlin! And now he's telling everyone that I did."Alyssa said to herself.
"Count to 10 Lyssie. Just ignore him. You don't want to end up serving detention for pushing him into the pool with dragon. That might cool down is so called Hawtness. In fact, his back looks kinda flat to be honest.' Alyssa giggled to herself as she looked at it.
Now back to business and bathing RoRo. Alyssa listened as Professor Williamson asked why dragons needed to be bathed.
Alyssa figured this was a common sense answer, so raised her hand and said,"Professor dragons need to be bathed firstly because they get dirty easily but mainly because their hide is thick and leathery and if it gets too dry, it will start to crack like leather does."
"Like leather that needs to be conditioned and oiled in order to look good, I'm guessing the same goes for a dragon's hide. The oil also helps to cool down the dragon's body temperature."
"As for the bathing part, you either get him to go in voluntarily or you just splash the water over him."
That would be what she would do, Alyssa thought to herself.

"Crazy?" he threw her question back at her, completely taken aback by her response. What on EARTH was she on about? "I think the only one crazy here is you. You're totally crazy about how gorgeous I am, no? Don't worry about it. I don't blame you. No one else blames you. I am awesome. I am awesomely hot."
Then she got all quiet and whispery and chastisey with him. It seemed she was scared he was going to get them into trouble. This only further proved her craziness because there was no way he was going to get them into trouble. Williamson understood, afterall. "I wouldn't worry small fry, Williamson is my bro. He gets me. He gets IT. This thing that me and him have, that we share. He GETS it."
She seemed to be getting restless around him. He found it really flattering that this little girl had a crush on him. It was hard to blame her though. He had to live with this curse where there was NO ONE who didn't have a crush on him. Even the giant squid had a crush on him.

The Butt Girl, which is what Elijah was going to refer to her as due to him not actually knowing her REAL name, seemed to be getting all prissy over the fact that he had made up stuff she said. Personally, he didn't see why it was such a big deal! She should totally feel honoured that a guy like him had even taken notice of her existence, right?
She gave a long (and boring) answer about the dragon and it's bath and Elijah saw this as the PERFECT opportunity to try and get back in her good books and make her feel better about herself and her butt remarks from earlier. "That was an extremely fascinating answer you gave. Seriously. Soooooo interesting." Girls LOVED being complimented on their smarts.
