Jayden could not BELIEVE it. Another TEN POINTS? It was bad enough they had lost points at the start of term feast. And now THIS? And it was all because Elliot's friend Presley had come to school out of uniform. GREAAAAAAT.

GLARE GLARE GLARE.

Oh well, nothing she could do about it now, and besides... everyone forgets a rule at some point or another, right? Jayden nodded in agreement as the professor announced that they would be starting soon, but there was still some time for quiet chatting. Awesome. She liked the new teacher already.

Jayden laid her things out on her desk. Making sure that everything was in order and set up the way she liked it.


Ahh... order and cleanliness.

Well. If Aspen thought it was a good idea.

West went ahead and put in the teeth, not so discreetly.

And because he couldn't contain himself any longer, and had noticed the professor (finally), he put his hand up.

"Excuse me professor," He said around his new teeth, "Can I keep my bottle after on account of I wanna make a ROCKET! Can I make a rocket? Can we ALL make rockets?"

Because Vampire!Odessas and bottle rockets made perfect sense together. Clearly.

Alyssa was embarrassed that she had actually said good evening instead of good afternoon. Well at least the Professor was nice enough not to point out her mistake to her. She eyed the cup of soda she had on her desk when Professor Burbage encouraged them to drink it. She eyes it even more suspiciously now, but not wanting to look rude, she picked up the cup and took a small sip of the soda

Then she felt someone sit down next to her and smiled when she saw that it was Alec.



Alyssa leaned over and whispered to him. "Good to see you here, Alec. Believe me you'll totally enjoy this class."

Emmaleigh smiled a little as she made her way into the Astronomy classroom. As much as she had always hated the laborious climb up to the tower, she was glad to make it this term. It meant that she was back at Hogwarts, back at home, not the small school she had attended the year before. “Good afternoon Professor.” She said, smiling at the woman she hadn’t met before. Noticing the table with the sodas the puff headed to it. After reading the note, she pullecd out her quill and scribbled her name and all down in one of the empty squares.




Selecting one of the sodas that looked like a cola, she put the cup upside down over the cap. She headed to her seat, not noticing who was around, just counting rows and columns to make sure she sat in the seat that corresponded with her name. As she set her stuff down, and took her seat, she noticed that one of the desks beside her was already claimed, but her new neighbor wasn’t seated at the moment. She cracked open her drink, and filled the little cup all the way up and drank the whole thing.

Damon walked into class reluctantly, he didn't really feel like classes this year at all. But he sighed and walked into the class. Quickly taking his seat and staying quiet as he filled out his paper.

SPOILER!!: Damon

Name: Damon Ashllyn-Darkmyr Mercada aka Ash Mercada
Year: Sixth
House: Hufflepuff

Ariana showed up to class "Good afternoon professor." she said with a smile and since she read the parchment she went to the chart of squares and choose one that no one was near..
it was closer to the front of the room but she didnt care as long as she was far away from Odessa & Kinsley she didnt care where she was. She grabbed a bottle of soda and a cup and set it on the desk along with her parchment and a quill and anything else she needed for class

After spending a great deal of time winding her way through the castle, Sutton peeked her head in the door to the classroom, and a smile of relief broke over her face. This was definitely the room she had been looking for. Holding her belongings in her arms, pressed tight to her chest, she timidly entered the room, her frightened eyes scanning everywhere.

When her eyes finally landed on the instructions near the front of the class, she made her way up there, trying her hardest to blend in to the crowd. Seeing the professor waiting for the last few students to arrive, she gave the woman a polite but genuine smile. "Good afternoon, Professor Burbage," she said, just as she had practiced on her way to the classroom.

Realizing she needed to pick a seat, her eyes quickly surveyed her options. One name caught her eye: Logan. Tearing her eyes from the parchment, she turned over her shoulder to make sure that this was indeed the same Logan, and she hastily scribbled her information in the box next to his.

Immediately recognizing the different sodas, she poured a glass of Orange Soda, thrilled to having something familiar, and she went away from the front of the room and scooted into her seat... next to Logan and a girl who looked about his age. Flashing him a smile, she quietly said, "Hi Logan! I hope it's okay if I sit with you... I just... don't know anyone else yet..." and as her voice trailed off, her eyes did, too...

"Hello, Professor..." Aurora sat down quietly in the back of the classroom after selecting her drink and writing in a square.



She scribbled out the 'Stewart'... she still wasn't used to writing her name without it... but she refused to use it anymore...

So. Astronomy... right. Something Aurora sucked massively at... but she sucked at pretty much all lessons here - demonstrated by her abominable OWL results - so she was used to that.

Aurora walked into the astronomy classroom excited since it was her first class of the year! She noticed the professor at the front of the class and what was written on the board. She took her time looking at the soda bottles wanting to choose the best one for her. She wondered what they would be doing with something so muggle but whatever it was- it sure would be interesting.

Before she chose her bottle she took out parchment and wrote



She then went and picked out a lime soda bottle since she loved the look of the green. Gathering both the bottle and a cup, she went to take her seat.

Louisa wanted to BEAM and GRIN and... stuff. But she just shifted on her seat, pretending that her stomach didn't just felt like a field of happy butterflies. Her eyes caught the soda bottle and cup he'd brought with him and she made a faint gasp, "Oh! Right.." she got up again, passing Presley who just cost them TEN freaking points for not showing up in uniform, eyed the girl, and went to pick a soda bottle of her own. The orange one, with a plastic cup and then she walked back to her seat.

"What does soda have to do with Astronomy?" This was the tradition of professor Gemma in Muggle Studies, seeing it here was a bit... odd.

Astronomy. Why. Why did that class have to be first. It was so far away from the common room!

Delilah walked into the classroom, self consiously patting down the back of her newly-cut hair. It probably wasn't evenly cut, but the Slytherin didn't know who to go to so she'd tried to cut it herself. The girl did, however, know that she'd caught the back of her neck with the spell, and currently had a small, purple plaster over it.

"Hullo, Professor." She mumbled, shyly. Delilah did smile a little bit, though. She didn't want to look rude. She was already nearly late for class, after all.

She looked at the table, and frowned as she read the note. Did they HAVE to have some of the fizzy drinks? She didn't really like it... Picking up the quill, Delilah looked at the few empty spaces left on the seating plan. The only empty seat that wasn't near Aurora (Quinn) was right at the front of the class, which was BAD. Teachers always picked on the students sat near the front... and Delilah wasn't actually very good at Astronomy! She should have gotten here earlier.

After a moment of trying to choose, Delilah opted for the seat in front of Aurora. Easier to hide from the professor's questions then...

The Slytherin then picked up a cup and a bottle of what she presumed was lemonade (to be polite, that is. She had no intentions of actually drinking it.), then walked towards her seat, watching her feet the entire time.

Hmm? Oh... "Sorry." Penelope had forgotten professors usually liked being called "professor." And she couldn't really blame them, it was kinda a cool title. And since the professor was nice about it, she tried again, with the correct version. "Hi, Professor." She would've added the professor's name after it, but Penelope didn't know it. Or...if it had been said earlier, she didn't remember it. So the professor was just "professor" right now.

At least class was gonna start soon. Penelope sipped her soda while she waited and watched her other classmates.

Astronomy class.

Oooooh was Gideon happy to see that it would be taught again this term. He had missed it so expecially when they hadn't even been allowed up to the conservatory last term. All the more reason to have been so passionate about the protest he had been involved in for History of Magic class. The astronomy lover had been limited to just the times he had with his mum at home and it hadn't been enough.

The seventh year prefect made his way up to the Astronomy tower with an ever so little bounce in his step. Stepping inside preparing himself for not knowing what to find since it was a new term and new professor after all, Gideon was pleased to see it wasn't off the wall...or rather out of this world. However he was surprised to see quite a few students already there including Selina and Kurumi. Had he really been running late when so excited? "Good afternoon Professor," he greeted quietly so as not to disturb her observances, the boy then approached the table as he saw others do and carefully read the note left there.

Doable, he mused to himself, taking a quill and adding the requested information to one of the forward spots, near to where Selina was.

He then took a bottle and a cup and moved to take a seat in the corresponding space, setting both objects on the desk as well as his bag of school things as he sat down. Now to await the beginning of the lesson, Gideon softly smiling as he quietly did so.

What was with that look of horror on her face, had he done something wrong.
No, he got the soda in the cup just as the instructions said, and he filled out the name card correctly. So why was she so unamused with him right now?

Oakey checked himself, he looked down at his tie and straightened it some. He ran his fingers through his hair and pushed the bangs away from his eyes coming it to the side. He even checked to see if his pants were on right. Again, no everything seemed right.

Hmmmmmmmm, they could enjoy their soda's. Okay, that seemed fair. For a strange start to his worst subject. So he took a few sips of his Orange soda and placed it back down on his desk. He looked back up to Professor Burbage to check if he had done this right.

He was half-deaf, he knew that. But for some reason he can hear some phantom gems clinking their way away from the Ravenclaw's hour glass. Siiiiiiighs Eagles....

He focused his attention to the soda bottles and waited for Louisa to return to her seat. At her question he murmured a reply "I guess its to make sure we stay awake..." Small griiin. You know, all that extra sugar and caffeine and all. He glanced at the younger Odessa blurting things out all excited like "....Or that." He twisted the cap from his soda bottle carefully to let the carbon out, then unscrewed the cap and poured himself a glass of what looks to be lime soda "Want some?" he offers the red-head.

Huh?....Oh..right. Renesmee shook her head trying to wake up some more, but instead all she could do was yawn and yawn. She was beyond tired. "Sorry, Professor *yawn* ..I seem to be a little unfocused today." And maybe that wasn't the best thing to tell a Professor on their first day teaching you, but the sleepy red head couldn't even realise that.

Hopefully she would not fall asleep as the leson began, because she did have to listen, especially now that she was doing OWLs this term. No listening equalled bad marks and she didn't want that, not even in the hardest subjects.
---------
Staring into blank air, Renesmee barely noticed that someone had taken a seat beside her, but when the girl spoke her name she blinked and turned to face her. It was Elise one of the younger Ravenclaw students, one of the cute bunch. Ness yawned once more and then smiled at the younger eagle.

"Elise!" she beamed some more and with yet another yawn eyed the colour bottle she had taken. Blue..not surprising, and in fact Ness would have chosen the seem seeing as it was the closest colour to purple, but lucky for her they had her second favorite green.

Another thing caught Nessie's attention it was the bandage. What had happened to this poor youngsetr? Ness just stared a few moments, but decided she'd discuss it with Elise later when she could actually pay proper attention. "Sure." she nodded and then took the bottle, twisting the lood open. "There you go." she handed it back to her and then lay her head on the desk almost falling asleep, till someone else appeared this time it was Logan.

She immediately blushed, but looked away so he would not see and then begin with he's Tomato nickname. They were in class and maybe things like that were not so good to be done in a place and time like this. As Ness had always heard, there was a time and place for everything.

The soda...Ness lifted her head up and eyed it a few moments, of course still yawning in between. Why it was there, Nessie was unsure, and did she want to find out? Yes..but did she have the energy? Nope..and that was why she put her head down again and this time closed her eyes, but not sleeping just yet.

Sarah nodded limply, hopefully she would not spill again. It was embarressing. This teacher was being to be as a handful as the charms teacher. Manners are silly anyway, Hogwarts had enough manners. Getting good marks were much easier then manners.
She took another sip from her soda.

Logan smiled at Ness and continued staring glancing at her even after she had looked away. Frown. He had wanted to talk to her. Maybe after class...

Deep in thoughts about Ness's beautiful hair, he almost had a heart attack when someone called out his name.

"Hey, it is fine," he replied when he saw that it was Sutton. "I don't know many people." So she wasn't alone.

So this was astronomy, Bliss thought to herself looking around after she had take her seat just as everyone else had begun arriving. Last year she had been unable to attend the classes, due to events out of her control, such as an ill relative. This year however, she didn't have that problem and here she was. The classroom was great and large and the first thing she'd noticed was the table found next to the door and a seating chart which her eyes scanned, she didn't recognise many of the names, so she just chose a seat near the back of the classroom and wrote in the details required.

She placed down the quill and looked at the other things on the table and a note. The note said to take a bottle of soda..a muggle drink? and a cup. And was she to resist such an offer, she thought and picked up a blue bottle of soda and a cup and made her way to her seat at the back. Now let the learning begin!

It never bothered Sophie to climb aaaallll of those stairs up to the towers, but it was not as okay to do it without her Hufflepuff friends. After going from the Common Room all the way to the tower, the brunette entered the room and looked around. There were maaaany people there already! Wow. There were a lot of new students this term, huh?

Even though the school felt full of people, Sophie couldn't help but feel lonely... "Hello, Professor..." She greeted the new Professor in a low tone as she eyed the message written on the parchment. She walked over to where the soda bottles were and grabbed one and a plastic cup.



As she turned around to find a seat, she glanced around and avoided making eye contact with her housemates. It had been awkward enough on their first day, right? No need to make a class awkward as well.

Oh, look! It was Theodore right there, sitting with no one in particular. Sophie almost smiled as she made her way to the middle of the classroom where he was and sat down. "Hi." She said simply as she placed the bottle and cup in front of her and pulling out a quill from her bag.

Louisa couldn't help but chuckle, keep them awake. Mhhmmm, Astronomy wasn't one of her favorite subjects anyways so it actually makes sense to gulp down two liter of soda if the lesson turns out to be all theory-based.

... or make rockets. The Ravenclaw raised her eyebrows at the boy who excitedly blurted it out before nodding and accepting Vickers' cup, with her other hand she passed him her empty one to replace the one she just took. "I just don't want us to have a loo emergency soon." And she was not going to accompany any firsties to do their job there! Just sayin'.

Continue to drink the soda? Oh well, might as well do that~!

The slytherin refilled his cup with the orange soda and quietly sipped on it as he looked at the front. He was observing the new Professor as she greeted the other students that walked in and so far he had seen... she was rather cheery. Which was good in Daichi's case cause those were easier to talk to hehe.

A hint of yellow caught his attention and as in instict he turned his head to the door. As Indy walked in he smiled a bit stupidly and as she waved at him he automatically waved back, blush on his cheeks. She probably went to sit with Dylan...

He watched her until she sat....next to Beezus? ....not Dylan? The fifth year looked around for the Captain but could not find him. Maybe that was why she sat next to Beezus, because her boyfriend was not there.

With a small sigh, and believing his own theory he looked back at the front.

Elliot glanced up...at the very snazzy Presley. "Hey, Pres. Why are you so dressed up? Where's your uniform?" she asked, and her blue eyes flickered to the front of the room...hopefully the professor wouldn't notice. Great.

But she did send a smirk to her friend. "You're very smiley today. I'll have to fix that." She chuckled a little evilly to herself and saw jayden take a seat next to Presley.



Elliot merely stared at Jayden, sort of leaning over Presley to see her..."I would have if you didn't snore so loudly..." she snorted, joking. Heehee. She loved making fun of Jayden...it was a fun past time to have.

She watched as Jayden introduced herself to Presley..good...at least one of her other friends should like Presley...especially since Hannah didn't.

Elliot merely glared at Presley..GREAT THANKS PRES! UGH. More point loss for the claws..JUST GREAT.

She would forgive Presley...later. She then nodded atthe professor, still not daring to take any of that....drink. Soda, muggle drinks.

Elijah has no clue who this Casanova guy was, but the name sounded strong and complimentary, so he took it with grace. It took all his power not to start laughing with the way she was reacting to his compliments. His powers of flirtation clearly saw no bounds, especially when it came to age. "The pleasure was all mine," he responded to her kind words regarding his gift before making his way back to his assigned seat.

4. Aspen had reason to not open her mouth yet.

So... Aspen eyed the Professor, shrugged at the directions, and got whatever bottle of soda was nearest then went to sit with her brother.




...where she passed him a pair of teeth. Discretely, Aspen grinned to show off her own set, already in place.

GRINNNN.

Then she set out to do the card thing.



When that was done, she set to looking around the room, at all the children and soda. Noooo nothing could possibly go wrong in this powder keg.

En route to his desired destination, he passed the desk where Aspen was sitting next to her younger brother. He was pleased to see that he wouldn't be sitting anywhere near that psycho. Was her brother a vampire, too? If the Aparecium was claiming it an Odessa Infection, then there was a high chance that that could be the case...

As he returned to his desk to start drinking his soda, as per Professor LOVELYface's instructions, he noticed who his neighbour was going to be for this class... oh great. The girl who wasn't actually a girl because she didn't carry around a mirror or brush her hair... clearly.

He took his seat and opened the bottle top, pouring the fizzy liquid into his glass. Taking a sip, he automatically felt refreshed. Turning to his fellow Huffer he said, "Sorry about my actions on the platform. You had to understand I was going through a bit of a crisis and you were being a bit of a let down to your gender. But it's okay. I'm willing to forgive you, if you forgive me." There! See? He could be the bigger man!

His eyes wandering over the class, he also noticed Vickers and Louisa sitting next to each other... flirting. Hmph. Complicated his behind! That didn't look complicated. That looked like they were two 'O' grades away from snogging the face off of each other...

First class already. This year was starting out fast already. No time to rest. Anyway, Tag walked into the classroom and saw that several students were already waiting for class to start. Well, as long as he wasn't late. Ohh, and there was soda. What an excellent way to start the class. But before he could do that he had to write down his information for the Professor.

Tag Kildare

He wrote down inside the required box. The leprechaun then began to drink up his soda, trying to take in who was already in the class.
