The classroom is looking a little bigger than usual. That's so it can accommodate some extra items. Yes - you notice the chairs, desks, Professor and usual paraphernalia are not the only thing waiting for you upon entry. Stood next to each desk is a mannequin, with a name plate hung around it's neck and wearing a rubbish bag as if it were a shirt.
Professor Magnus is leaning against her desk waiting to welcome you in. Say hello, sit down, and feel free to write your name on the space provided.
CLASS HAS STARTED: Please do not announce your late arrival!

Another day and another round of classes. Yippy skippy.
Walking into the Transfiguration classroom, Sierra took a long look around. You just never knew what you'd find when you walked into these classrooms. They usually never looked the same as last time and sometimes, like in DADA for instance, you'd feel under attack just walking into the room.
...and this time was no exception.
Sierra stared at the mannequin as she approached her desk. It looked creepy, and...she really didn't trust it. Who knew what might be hiding in there? They weren't going to transfigure them into something creepy, were they? Nevertheless, she took out a quill and put her name on the nameplate.
Helen walked into the Transfiguration classroom, with excitement. She was quite talented in this subject and is a strong area for her so when she heard the lesson was today - she could hardly keep still and calm through all her other classes.
When she walked in, she saw a mannequin by each desk with a name plate around its neck. She took a seat near the front/middle and write her name, year and house on the name plate as instructed by the Professor.

Well and West would MUCH rather NAME his mannequin, but once he'd entered and settled at his desk, with a bit of grumbling he went ahead and put his name and year on the thing.
He wasn't even going to try to guess what they were supposed to be doing. Instead he polished off a chocolate frog, since class hadn't quite started, and bounced in his seat. already bored of waiting.

Right then, a few more people had arrived and taken a seat, occasionally offering a hello to Isabelle, which she returned with a smile. Once the last one she would allow came in, Issy flicked her wand and closed the door behind them, giving West a slight look as he stuffed his face with chocolate. Was she not going to get one? FINE.
"Okay. Welcome everyone to the first lesson of term. For those of you that don't know, my name is Professor Magnus, but I assume you do know this is Transfiguration class." After all, they'd read the notice on their common room boards, and made it to the right place.
Walking forwards slightly, Issy stopped just as she got to the desk of a Ravenclaw, and rested a hand on the shoulder of the mannequin stood by it. "Miss McGregory (prettyme99), I hope you don't mind if I borrow this for the demonstration in a moment." She hadn't bought her own in, there were enough around for her to use, and they weren't exactly small.
"As you can see a mannequin has been assigned to each of you - please do make sure to write your names on them there," she said, pointing at the plate hung around the neck that the Ravenclaw had already helpfully filled in. "And they're wearing a rubbish bag. For now. Anyone care to guess what we might be doing today, before I explain what I've actually got planned for the entire term?" Because this was a long term project, people.
OOC: There is a right answer to this, obviously, hehe. But points are not just awarded for right answers, but fun, interesting ones too. So basically if your charrie doesn't know, doesn't matter . Depending on how many people answer before I go to bed, I might NOT be able to fit another post in tonight....

Theo looked to study the mannequin closer, once again. Yes.... they were only used for one thing really and that was fashion.
He stroked his imaginary beard and nodded.
Okay, he had it. "Are we transfiguring those rubbish bags into clothes?" And maybe even designing their own? Theo would maybe design a summer version of quidditch robes. A pair of shorts, you know? Gets a bit sweaty up on that pitch sometimes... Just a thought.

Alice rubbed her chin and looked thoughtfully at her mannequin. Her name was scrawled onto the plate that hung over it's neck, and clothed in a rubbish bag. She had wondered what it was for.. was Professor Magnus going to tell them now? No? Well. Okay, then. She heard Theo offer the answer about transfiguring their rubbish bag into clothes- it seemed plausible. It was very similar to what she was thinking. But the Gryffindor had a slightly different idea in mind. "Are we transfiguring the mannequin into rubbish? So that there would be.. rubbish.. in the.. rubbish bag?" That's what rubbish bags were for, right?
Right?
Nevermind, Theo's answer was much more intelligent-sounding and creative than hers.

As Emmaleigh sat there, she examined the classroom. These mannequins were just a little bit creepy, but they were also exciting. Their presence meant they would be using them, and actually doing transfigurations. Though, with Magnus, there was never any doubt. Listening as the professor began speaking, she turned her attention to the woman. Flicking her eyes back to the mannequin, she noticed the name tags for the first time. Pullin out her wand, she gave it a little flick and watched as her name appeared on it.

Looking at the rubbish bag, she thought about what the could be doing. Raising her hand, she hazzared a guess. “Are we transfiguring them into rain jackets?” The bags would already sort of keep rain off, but a rain jacket would work better, and look less silly.

Minerva made sure that her name was on the plate as she listened to Professor Magnus and she just finished when she felt a smile cross her lips and a thought crossed her mind. Were they learning a spell that she had been hoping to come across for four years. This excited Minerva to know end at the thought of finally getting to use the spell that she had wished she knew to use on Harvey a few times. She pictured putting him in a dress when he irritated her with his cluelessness.
Minerva put her hand up, "Professor Magnus could we possibly be learning how to do a spell that will change things into clothes?" she looked at the bag and thought about how fun it would be to learn a spell that could change clothes. Change bags into clothes, maybe even clothes into other clothes. This could be the best spell ever if she was right.. well maybe second best. Her hair changing spell from first term was still her favorite.

Gideon turned his full attention back to Professor Magnus once she began class. At mention of the items each of them had, the prefect couldn't help glancing again at the mannequin stationed beside his own desk. They did have a purpose...and noticing the name plate around its neck as well as those of others, realized that he must have missed the step of adding their names.
Quote:

Now as for the purpose for the class only one idea came to mind so raising his hand, Gideon prepared to answer her question. "Are we learning spells that have to do with transfiguring clothing items? Perhaps various types over the course of the term, even to go along with the different seasons." It made sense to him especially given the nature of what mannequins were usually used for.
Right then, a few more people had arrived and taken a seat, occasionally offering a hello to Isabelle, which she returned with a smile.

Annabelle was listening to the professor's question and was pondering what they were doing with the mannequins. "Professor wouldn't it be cool if we can transfigure the mannequins into a different time period? But i think we will use them for to make clones of ourselves." Belle knew it was way out there but she wanted to be creative :3

Cassia glanced at the mannequin next to her and made sure that she had her name written. Now what? Mm…they were guessing. Cassia had already tried but Professor Magnus said that it was false. So if they weren't turning the mannequins into themselves what else could they be doing.
The second-year paused letting her imagination unleashed ;mannequins , students and transfiguration. Hmmm…..
Finally ,Cassia raised her hand and spoke, "Professor, will we be dressing the mannequins like someone from the staff or even the governors who're in the castle?" You know considering there were many new people this term. "And then we'll guess who each mannequin is dressed like?" Because that would be a very interesting and fun game….lesson. And helpful too. The twelve-years old rubbed her hands excitedly assuming that her answer was right though the professor hasn't answered yet.But she so hoped for something fun! She sat on the edge of her seat eager for the Professor to answer.

How the heck was Hannah supposed to know what they were going to be doing to those bloody mannequins? Personally she hoped that they would be setting them on fire. Still she doubted very seriously that was the correct answer.
"Professor we are going to transfigure them to real people." and then set them on fire...she said with a raised hand. Really she knew that her answer was far from true and logically they probably were going to change the rubbish bag on them into something fabulous!
Sutton raised her eyebrows as all the other students were answering. What on earth were these people talking about? Change a rubbish bag into clothes? There was absolutely no way that was possible! That would... that would require actually changing the innate physical properties of the material in front of them, and science told her that that simply wasn't possible. Change the structure or state, sure, but change it into something completely different, made of different elements? No... these kids were crazy. Folding her arms, firmly maintaining her commitment to the laws of science, Sutton just didn't respond. The professor would tell them eventually, right?

Lex had almost began getting bored just sitting there, waiting for the lesson to begin but it seemed the Professor was finally ready.
She had to admit that she found the mannequins a little odd and well...quite frankly a little creepy but the woman obviously knew what she was doing so even if these freaky, over-sized dolls somehow magically appeared in her dreams tonight it would be okay because it would mean that she had learnt something valuable today; now wasn't that what school was about? Cringe.
Her eyes glanced up at the one that was by her desk. Quit staring at me.
...It was still doing it....
O____O
She turned her attention to the Professor once more and heard her give her little explanation for trying to spook her out of ever attending another Transfiguration class. She snuck a glance over at the over-sized doll again and found that she was still staring at her. Prying her eyes away she turned to face the Professor once more. "Does it have anything to do with making this doll any less creepy?" Mannequin...doll...same thing really. Then people wondered why as a toddler Lex never liked those things.
Alexa would wait for a reply before writing her name on the thing and consequently owning up to it.

Sierra eyed her mannequin out of the corner of her eyes. It was still creepy, regardless of whether or not Magnus had intentionally put it there for the lesson. It reminded her of Inferi, and...well, that was creepy. Then add the fact that it was wearing a garbage bag, and...it was just an odd site to look at.
It was obvious what they'd be doing today. Or, at least she thought it was. She raised her hand. "Are we transfiguring the garbage bag into different types of clothes?" she asked. Just what she always wanted to wear--a garbage bag. She lowered her hand then looked at the professor, waiting for her word one way or the other.

Harvey listened as the professor started the class and told them to write their names on the nameplate, so he got up and wrote his name on the nameplate. She then asked them what they might be doing in the class, he looked at the mannequin with a rubbish bag around him. He the listened to the suggestion s of his classmates, oh no! He was hoping that they were wrong. Cause if they were right then he knew what was coming next, he looked over at Mins oh boy if they were right the she was going to get to do what she had be wanting to do for a very long time. How many times had she threatened to put him into a dress for annoying her, now once she learnt this spell she would be unstoppable. If she ever got annoyed with him he knew that he would end up in a pink Mohawk like she had given him before and not just that there would be a matching dress with it just like she had wanted. He sank a little in his seat wishing that he had skipped this class, but then he knew she would come chasing after him anyways after having learnt the spell. Oh boy he was in big big trouble now, why did the professor have to teach this spell? Wasn't there any others? In all this worry he forgot about the question and just kept glancing over at Mins to see if he could see a smile creeping up on her face knowing that she was about to learn the spell that she had been looking for.. for a long long time.

he turned his attention to the desks and began heading to one, he took a seat beisde Beezus and looked at her still trying to figure out why this class was different, and why did it take him just a bit longer to get to a desk? WHY DID HE EVEN CARE!?!?!
He looked up and down at the mannequin with a trashbag wearing a name tag. He quickly stood up and inspected it some before sitting back down at his desk? Was what was different Beezus? No, she looked the same as usual. Was it Nigel who was only a few seats behind him. Oakey moved around in hi seat some and looked at the younger Ravenclaw...nope, he was all the same too. Still looking directly at Nigel, Oakey spoke up. "Hey Beezus?" Oakey said to her to get her attention. "Does this class seem different?"
Beezus noticed Oakey sit next to her but didn't give any greeting yet for the Hufflepuff seemed a bit...preoccupied.
When he asked for her opinion on the classroom setting, she shrugged. Aside from the mannequin's being set up beside their desks, there wasn't anything new. "Well, maybe the classroom's bigger now?" Actually, it looked like it was bigger.

Before she could receive a reply from the boy, she immediately did as they were told and wrote down her name on the mannequin's name plate next to her. It had been creepy seeing the mannequins with each trashbag, but it appeared creepier when their names were on it. Ack.
Just as she had finished, the first question was asked. With that, she looked at the mannequin once more. Her classmates said they were transfiguring the trash bags on the mannequin into clothes. Hmm. She thought about that too. Maybe that was it, no? Those mannequins sure needed a bit of help when it came to dressing up.
Choosing not to speak since the answers given just implied the same idea, Beezus stayed sitting on her seat, listening.

Snitch...of course. Wizarding expressions often included Quidditch references in them....but those sorts of things just made the Gryffindor itch and get nervous. Which was precisely why she began to scratch her arms after Beezus too got a little surprised by the creepy mannequins by their desks.
Kurumi was able to shrug her shoulders and open her mouth as if she were about to speak when Professor Magnus began the lesson...and told them to write their names on the nameplates around the mannequin's neck. Okay...THAT was creepy... although the presence of the trash bag on them sort of gave Kurumi an indication as to what they were going to be doing.
Which was precisely what was asked of Professor Magnus as well. Only not just for this lesson...but for the entire term. Kurumi furrowed her brow and looked back at the mannequin before glancing back at Professor Magnus she would write her name on the nameplate later. So...perhaps shirts or some sort of top today? Pants or bottoms next lesson? "Will we be learning how to transfigure and design clothing this term?" Kurumi asked as she raised her hand. "With...today's lesson focusing on how to transfigure a top of some sort?"
Redesign Hogwarts uniforms perhaps? Not that Kurumi had ANY real fashion sense as the fashion seminar had proved.

Vee wrote her name, year and house on the plate around her mannequin's neck, and pondered the Professor's question. There were a million things that she intended for them to do...
"We'll be transfiguring the rubbish bags into various items of clothing throughout the term until they are fully dressed?" she ventured. That would make it a long-term project, after all - say a hat today, a dress the following lesson, followed by shoes. Or something.
Vee could just picture her mannequin in a straw hat. She loved straw hats.

Listening as the professor began speaking, she turned her attention to the woman. Flicking her eyes back to the mannequin, she noticed the name tags for the first time. Pullin out her wand, she gave it a little flick and watched as her name appeared on it.

Looking at the rubbish bag, she thought about what the could be doing. Raising her hand, she hazzared a guess. “Are we transfiguring them into rain jackets?” The bags would already sort of keep rain off, but a rain jacket would work better, and look less silly.
West thought that sounded like a good bet.
"I think raincoats too." West said, hand up. Because really, if it was just clothes, when were you gonna have a rubbish bag and no clothes to wear? That was weird. "On account of those bags are already waterproof so we wouldn't even need to charm it dry."

Laura looked at the mannequin and the did what the Professor said, she put Laura Hope Hyde, Hufflepuff on the Mannequin and then thought about the question. "Professor you want to open up a clothes shop and we are going to be the one's to dress the Mannequin?" Laura thought that was a good idea, it would actually be a fun one as well.
Kai turned to his mannequin just as his professor had asked. "Pleased to meet you, I'm Kai...What's that? You don't talk much? Perfect." He whispered in jest to his lifeless partner. He reached up and scratched his name onto the name plate across its chest:

What could they possibly be doing today? He was completely stumped. "Are we designing an eco-friendly new uniform, professor?" He said with a slight grin. Wrong, but it was better than sitting in silence.
He was looking forward to his O.W.L. year in Transfiguration. He wanted that Outstanding grade, that's for sure. He settled into his chair more comfortably while his peers gave their own answers.
Nigel was wondering why they had to put their names on the mannequin. He did not really want to. But if he had to he would. At first he wondered if they would transfigure the mannequin into a likeness of themselves. But thought that was to advanced for the first class. Then he got a better idea.
"Professor, are we going to practice CPR, because you need mannequins for that too"
He was still wondering why the mannequin had trash bags on them.
