CoMC Lesson #1 The first Care of Magical Creatures lesson of the term is being held during the time of day that comes between afternoon and dinnertime. The skies are just beginning to darken, but only barely so. By definition, it's still daytime. |
One more lesson, just one more then it would be dinner time and she'd get ice-cream. Obviously she wasn't looking forward to the 'wonderful' meal that would come before dessert but whatever! The dessert and her candy made everything better. Besides, she tried the whole living solely on ice-cream and candy thing...it didn't go so well so she had no choice but to force the food down. No use complaining about that for now! Lex shoved the last bite of her chocolate frog into her mouth as she arrived at what she assumed would be the classroom for today. OH and there was the Professor!...Wait...was she the first to get here...? "Hello Professor!!" She gave the woman a wide grin before plopping down on a bench just bouncing slightly from all the sugar she'd had on the way down. There was another chocolate frog in her pocket...she...she kinda wanted it now, especially after seeing what was left of the ice-cream the Professor had been having. "Are we all having ice-cream once the lessons over?" |
Care of Magical Creatures. Kat liked this class, for reasons. They had interesting animals and creatures in this class so why not look forward to it as well? She also passed the OWL in this class so she had even more respect for it. Since she knew that Professor Newlin wasn't at the Feast, the prefect was quite excited to know who the new Professor was. It definitely wasn't going to be a Governor right? Hopefully. She saw a lot of them last term already and she didn't have time to see them again. Kat went over to the sort of classroom. Makeshift and all, because they were outdoors. The prefect made her way there and saw Lex. Hmm... how interesting. She was one of the first students here. "Hello, Professor," Kat said as she saw the woman there in front. She was familiar and Kat recognised her as the lady who walked passed the Slytherin Table during the feast. Yeah, that was definitely her. Who else would it have been? Kat just needed to know Professor who she was. "Welcome to Hogwarts." She wasn't sure if she was an alumna here, so that was okay. Then she went to take a seat on one of the benches. |
THIS was the lesson Derry had really been looking forward to. She grew up on a farm, and just felt some kind of affinity with animals. Horses especially, but no biggie... she wanted to learn more about magical ones. Her dad had attempted to teach her some during her tutoring, but since it was a muggle farm and they occasionally had visitors they couldn't exactly have magical creatures living on it. Which was a shame really... Derry made her way through the grounds, humming softly to herself, until she reached the outdoor classroom thing... Was everyone just living off ice cream nowadays? Derry never ate the stuff... she didn't eat broccoli either, which made eating pretty difficult around here. "Good afternoon, Professor." she said, sitting on a bench and waiting for the lesson to begin. Was it afternoon? Or was it classed as evening? Derry couldn't tell... |
This was a class Penelope was sorta looking forward to, at least as much as anyone could look forward to a class. She usually enjoyed it pretty well since it was outside and they usually got to interact with cool animals. And that was fun. She liked animals. Oh, and this was a class with a new professor. "Hey Professor," she greeted her with a smile. "Welcome to Hogwarts." Even if it probably wasn't quite as great as it had been in some aspects. Hopefully that didn't affect what creature they got to learn about in this lesson... It seemed she was also pretty early to class too since there were only a few others there at the moment. Interesting. She wasn't often this early, but she went ahead and sat down on a random bench. |
Theo wasn't overly interested in Care of Magical Creatures today, unless they were studying dragons and the professor had one caged up to show them. But he showed up, at least, and wandered brightly to sit down on a bench. Oh, a new professor? He had not even realized that the last one had gone, nor did he really care. "Hi, professor." Professor who's name we didn't know. Did he need to introduce himself? Eh, he would later. For now, he had to inspect a tiny smudge of dirt under one of his nails. |
Care of Magical Creatures. Kace of excited to go to this class. This was his sisters favorite class of all. He was going to experience what the talk was all about. As he made it and found the classroom. There were benches all set up and he noticed the professor had ice cream. O__O. Kace wished he had some right now. As he made his way to the benches and sat down, he smiled at the professor. "Hello Professor, what ice cream flavor are you eating?" he asked curiously. |
Daichi had not seen their old Care of Magical Creatures Professor at the start of term feast and he wondered who the new one was. By the end of the day, nearing dinnertime, the Slytherin's stomach growled a little as he walked over the path towards the CoMC lesson. When he arrived, he saw that he wasn't the first and quickly joined the rest. He placed his school bag beside a random bench and turned to find the new professor when he saw her.... It...it was that woman he had been eyeing at the feast. that sounded wrong..ehm Staring!... even worse..ehm...politely looking? GAAAH! Checking if his Prefect badge was pinned right to his uniform, the Slytherin walked to the front. Unaware of how red his cheeks were from blushing. "Uhm..hello..welcome to class..HOGWARTS! i meant the school not class, well the class as well since ..yeah" He took a deep breath when he noticed he was rambling again. "Welcome to Hogwarts, Professor" he finally corrected himself. |
Time for some one on one animal time. Yeah, the ridiculous magical kind. The ones that you couldn't rub the back of their ears and chill with on the couch and watch some old movies with. No, the CRAZY ones. Like the rest of this ruddy school. POSITIVE THOUGHT... Professor was a girl. SO at least Ascanius would have something to pay attention to during the lesson. Ahem. Technically it wasn't his fault. If male Professors were remotely interesting Ascanius wouldn't have these problems. But see, they weren't. Stepping into the area where they were holding the class he saw an EXTREMELY attractive older woman eating some ice cream. Jeez. This whole school must have had something in the water. Every FEMALE Professor he had come in contact with was a Grade A Hottie. Not a frumpy woman in sight. He was being rewarded for something. He had to be. Smiling all wide and stuff, Ascanius approached his Professor and said, "Good morning, Professor." Eh, why not. Tack it on? Sure, he could do that. "You look lovely today, by the way." Truth. Now it was time to find a seat. |
Nigel walked down to the lesson in a pretty god mood. He has always liked CoMC. It probably had to do with it being outside and usually doing something fun. He even forgot that there was a new teacher this term for the class. "Hello, Professor". Nigel greeted her politely. He did wish he had some ice cream. It did look good. He went to sit on a bench. Wondering what creature they would be covering today. |
Time for Care of Magical Creatures lesson. Peyton skipped, hopped and bounced her way out to the grounds. Today was, too, a nice day. Seemed like every day was a nice, really. She came to a stop at the lesson area and-- New professor eating ice cream, say WHAT? :whaa: WAS THERE MORE? Did she have a super secret, hidden bin of ice cream SOMEWHERE? And could Peyton have ALL of it? Green-gray eyes watched steadily as the professor finished off her ice cream cone. "Hello Professooor. I'm Peyton Baltazar," she greeted, showing her pearly white teeth with a smile. With introductions out of the way, she asked nonchalantly, "Just out of curiosity, is there more ice cream?" And could she have some... ...PLEASE? |
Nate was very happy today. It was nice, beautiful, there was only two things that made Nate's mood worsen even the slightest bit. One was the fact that now they had to pay to get into their very own Common Rooms! Which made no sense. In Nate's first year magical creatures were attacking the students. The next year a crazy, youth stealing three hundred year old witch suddenly showed up out of the blue. Next year there was a new headmaster, and something about a spirit. After that year nothing really happened other than a Board of Governers Election. Now they had to pay to get into their own common rooms?! It was like there was some sort of plot going on here. The other thing that bothered Nate is how this time the class was held during the afternoon. Normally it was held in the morning, or EARLY afternoon. As he noticed the people with the Professor Nate said "Hey Professor. Welcome to Hogwarts. I hope you like it here." He said with his most cheery of voices. |
Who was the professor fot his class again? Tora thought it started with a D... no wait B! It was Barlow, or so she was fairly certain it was. "Hello Professor Barlow" she said mumbling the last name just enough so it could be mistaken for something else if she didn't actually have the name right. "Having a nice day?" She vaguely wondered how this teacher would act. So far Tora only really liked Professor Airey and she was unsure where she stood with the other professors yet. Well, there was only one way to find out! Tora was glad they were outside without the confining walls of a classroom. She breathed a small happy sigh to be finally out of the small spaces. She walked over to one of the benches towards the right and plopped her bag down next to her. She took out her notebook just in case she would need to take notes and started humming quietly to herself the theme from the old show, Downton Abbey. Not really sure what made her think of it just then, she just did. |
Carsyn was many things, but spontaneous was not one of them. For that reason, she was most apprehensive about this Care of Magical Creatures lesson. Animals were unpredictable so much of the time... and Carsyn and unpredictability weren't a great mix. Carsyn took a seat on the bench furthest away from the Professor, not as a slight to the instructor, but as a precaution for herself. Who knows what was in store? Better safe than sorry. |
Anyone is welcome to be seat buddies. Just send me a VM What was it with Professors, and having classes so late? There were better things to be doing... Unless there were going to be dragons. That was definitely worth it. Or, he had to admit, it might be worth it if there was a warzone and planets to defeat. But... It was twilight, and he was heading down to the barns for class. And there probably wouldn't be dragons. Seeing the new Professor Lady, he gave her a smile. "Hi, Ma'am." he said, as he found a seat. |
Alec was pretty sure that he needed to be in this lesson. It was one of those 'uh-oh' subjects for him. Sort of. Because the only thing he really knew was how to feed his pets and look after them. But... magical creatures were different, yeah? Which was why this subject was so 'uh-oh' for him. Digging his hands into the pockets of his trousers, the sixteen year old continued wandering down until he reached a particular area near the barn and the sanctuary where the class must be being held. Because... well... why else would benches be put up randomly with students and the new Professor there? And speaking of new Professor... WAS SHE EATING ICE CREAM? Or... finishing. But STILL! A BIG WIDE SUPER GRIN spread across the Hufflepuff's face that reached his grey-blue eyes. It was as if someone was holding up a sign that said 'FREE ICE CREAM' or 'FREE PUPPIES' and were handing either one of those things out. And he probably should greet the woman instead of just grinning cheesily at her instead of mentally adding her to the awesome Professors list.... OKAY. "Hello Professor!" he said cheerily, "Erm... welcome to Hogwarts!" Not wanting to seem any more creepy than he was probably coming across -- BUT THE WOMAN HAD ICE CREAM -- Alec walked over towards the bench Kaiden was sitting on and sat down next to him, the grin still spread across his face. "General Kaid!" Dude got a grin and a nod. Also... when was |
It was afternoon, which meant that Tanner was well-fed, awake (or as awake as a Tanner could be) and ready. Ready to do what, exactly? She had no clue. Although from the name of the classshe could pull up three smart guesses. She walked outside and found her "brother" talking to an older guy. Hmm, this person was certaintly not a student. This must be the new professor. Wow, the medium sized girl could be Sherlock Holmes! (insert sarcasm button here) Her older Pain in the Neck seemed to be in a good mood, and to her surprise, she was as well. Her hair wasn't a frizzy mess, she had a good breakfast, and the weather wasn't all horrible. In fact, the eleven year old made it a goal to stay happy all day, and she was going to reach this goal. Even if it meant keeping her mouth shut for a while at some point. "Hey dude." She walked up to Nate and twirled a pink highlight around her pointer finger. Waiting to be acknowledged, she pushed the rest of her blond hair over her shoulder. Gross, it was kind of dry. It was amazing what a few weeks at Hogwarts could do. Whatever. She'd find someway to fix her hair. Maybe then she could fix her social life, her knack of getting in trouble, her previously horrible grades (middle school wasn't easy for her) and her big mouth. Get some sass out of there too and she'd probably be a model child. HAH! Like that'd ever happen. |
Jory headed down to the Care of Magical Creatures class which had been set up next to the barn and sanctuary. Oh yes. And there would be a new Professor. He wondered what her teaching method would be like. As he approached the class, he was just in time to see the Professor, Professor Barlow, if he remembered her name right, finishing an ice cream cone. "Ice cream! And she didn't even share with me!'' he thought, jokingly. "I muuuuust have some when I get back to the castle!'' Yes, he must! Who cared about food when there was ice cream around, anyway? "Good day, Professor,'' Jory greeted the woman. "Welcome to Hogwarts! I'm Jory Stonewall, final year rabid Badger!'' Grin. He now hurried off to take a seat on one of the benches, but his mind was now back on ice cream. "I feel like having tons more chocolate flavour!'' |
Ice cream. The Care of Magical Creatures Professor was enjoying ice cream? Grin! If there was one thing Ella appreciated as much as she appreciated creatures, it was ice cream. Did she mention she appreciated this woman's taste already? "Hello, Professor." She greeted politely on her way by, giving the new professor a small smile before looking around for a spot to sit. Oh, Kaiden and Alec were here. She'd sit with them, yeah? Taking the seat on the bench next to Alec, the blonde leaned and greeted the two boys quietly. "Hey Alec, Kaiden." Grin. Did they see the ice cream too? |
Curious about this lesson Sonea looked around her and remembered her first year, she had not really liked it because she didn’t liked it to walk in the dirt and to work with her hands, if Sonea had a choice she would learn only from books or she would follow lessons where she could use her wand and, but here she needed to work especially with her hands, at last, that was what Sonea thought. But, she tried to do her best and this year would be the same. “Hello Professor” said Sonea friendly and smiled at the teacher before she searched for a place to sit down and wondered where this lesson was about. |
Laura looked at the Professor and was really confused, surely the Professor wasn't allowed to eat ice-cream before class it wasn't right, well it wasn't right if the Professor didn't share, surely it was only right that the Professor shared it with the whole class, surely the Professor had loads more right. "Good Day Professor." Laura smiled. "Did you have a lovely summer?" |
Care of Magical Creatures, Mack wasn't sure how this class was going to go. But she decided to make it a good one. As long as she kept a positive attitude and paid attention surely it would go well. She continued with her little pep talk only stopping to say hello to the professor. "Good Evening Professor" She smiled. Well that was what this time of day was, it was getting later, almost dinner time in fact. |
Ethan was thankful it was still rather warm this time of day as he headed outside for class, because as much as he liked to be outside and the vicinity, he didn't much care for cold.. unless he was skiing. And he certainly was not today. Today he had class and that was where he found himself, entering some little makeshift classroom area. His eyes found the new CoMC professor and he gave her a nod in greeting as he watched her.. eating an ice cream cone. Somehow that struck him as odd, but he didn't give it a whole lot of thought. "Hello, Professor," he greeted her as he walked past. "Welcome to Hogwarts." Turning to find a seat, green eyes scanned the area. Vaguely familiar faces present so far and he gave a small smile to any of them who might have caught his eye in his search. Soon finding an empty bench, he lowered himself upon it, placing his messenger bag on the ground next to him. |
Mention of Peyton! ^_^ Troy walked in he felt very excited yet a bit nervous. He spotted the Professor munching on that delicious ice cream cone: I would do crazy things for that cone. MMMMMM ice cream... The young lion thought to himself as he waved at the Professor "Good day, Professor." and marched to find a seat. Locating a place to sit he didn't want to be alone so he placed his turtle backpack next to him to save a seat for his new found bff, Peyton. |
Wade walked to where his first Care of Magical Creatures lesson began. He had been excited knowing he continue this into NEWT level with his grade. Hmm.. that ice cream looked good. Wade smirked, he was definitely going to have dessert later when dinner time came. Approaching by where the new Professor sat, he greeted her, "Hello and Welcome to Hogwarts, Professor." Giving her a smile before continuing his way onto a empty bench to sit at, letting his bag rest by his legs on the ground. |
Raven walked into the barn area with her hands in her pockets and a vacant smile on her face. "Good evening professor!" This looked like a nice place to have a lesson. She didn't see any creatures, maybe they were just going to talk about them. Wait, was that ice cream the professor had? Oh yeah! Raven smiled to herself as she went to find a seat, her mind dwelling over the texture of ice cream. So creamy, so cold... |
Tag walked towards the place where the care of magical creatures lesson was being held. After making his way he found the professor licking an ice cream cone. With a quick glance Tag looked around to see if his ice cream addicts were here. An yes, they were, he saw Alec and Ella. "Hello professor. I do believe my friends are quite jealous of you at the moment." He said with a warm smile as he nodded at his Professor's ice cream cone. "They're ice cream addicts, and they must be staring longly at you. Hope today's class will be interesting." The little gryffindor concluded as he went around to go find a seat for himself. |
Care of Magical Creatures was one of Mo's faaaaavorite classes, and he was thrilled right out of his socks that it was meeting. Right now. Outside in the sun. And the professor had ice cream. Merlin, he wanted some ICE CREAM. "Good day, Professor," Mo nodded at the woman, although he could never have reported back on what she looked like. Her ice cream, though, he could definitely have reported on THAT. |

Making her way down to class she noticed the new professor and smiled, "Hello ma'am, I'm Minerva Wheatborn, welcome to Hogwarts." As she greeted the professor she saw exactly where she was going to sit out of the corner of her eye. Turning she headed straight for the open spot on a bench next to a certain Ravencalw. Smiling and saying quick hellos to other classmates, she finally turned to Ethan, "You keep getting to class first.. I'm starting to think I'm rubbing off on you a bit." She smiled and then turned to get ready for the lesson to start. |
Swinging her bag as she went, Lily made her way down to the CoMC lesson. She had noticed that it was a new teacher again this term. Willy had left for his dragons a couple terms ago. Former professor Newlin had just kinda disappeared without giving a reason. So it was safe to say that the fifth year claw was curious as to how long this professor would last.... and whether or not this professor would be nice. But it didn't take long for this professor to make a good impression on Lily. What professor would feel comfortable to eat an ice cream in front of a class and not be nice??.... Actually... don't answer that... Lily wanted ice cream now. Instead, she just grinned at the professor and gave a small greeting before finding a seat. "Hello Professor." |

Always glad to be out of doors and breathing fresh air, Eliza had a sparkle in her eyes and a bounce in her step. She was having another good day. In fact, she'd been having a lot of good days this term, which was slightly unusual, but she wasn't complaining. She walked over to the makeshift seating placements and waved to new professor as she approached. "Hello, Professor. It's nice to meet you," she said with a smile. "I'm Eliza Dawnsel." She didn't feel the need to tell her she was a Ravenclaw, since her robes pretty much did that for her. Turning in a tight spin, she trained her eyes on her new eaglet pal, Tora, and took a seat next to her. "Hiya Tora," she said cheerily as she sat her bag by her feet. She looked back over to and added with a grin, "I love this class!" Now she wondered what in the great wide world of creatures they would be studying today. |
SPOILER!!: Tora and Eliza Isobel showed up to Care of Magical Creatures smiling, more excited for this class than she had been for some others. Her eyes darted to the professor, who was eating ice cream (jealous!) and then she spent a minute taking in the setting. The benches were somewhat expected, the class being outside and all, but it was still a huge difference from some of their other classes, holed up in unfortunately dusty classrooms that smelt slightly of mould. Now, the air was fresh, if somewhat crisp, and if there hadn't been a lot of people nearby, Isobel would probably have thrown out her arms and spun around. Instead, she skipped up to Tora and Eliza and slid onto the bench next to Tora, nudging her slightly as she did so. "Hiiiii!" she drawled. "How's it going, you two?" Hopefully she wouldn't get in trouble for chatting or anything, she was just doing basic greetings and the professor still seemed busy eating ice cream (still jealous!). Besides, class hadn't officially started yet. |
SPOILER!!: Eliza and Isobel :) Tora really loved having friends. Not that she didn't have any back home... but they were all muggles who she couldn't talk to about magic. Besides, they weren't here with her at Hogwarts! "Hey Eliza!" Tora turned to the older Ravvie with a big smile and then whipped around when she felt a nudge on her other side. "And Isobel! Hiiii!" This professor seemed pretty chill, eating ice cream up front (agh and not sharing!), so Tora wasn't too afraid to start up a conversation. "Well I'm going pretty good, still gotta do that Transfiguration homework though, and how's your day been?" she laughed and then asked both of them in a lower voice. "What do you think the new Professor is like? Any rumors or anything to share?" |
Michael was still hadn't worked out whether this was going to be a good class or not. While he did like animals and all, he had pet ferret, learning about how to look after them wasn't high on his list of priorities. He made his way down to where the rest of the class was. "Hello Professor." he said as he walked passed her and took a seat next to...someone. |
Tobias hadn't skipped to the class... don't be silly. Nor had he frolicked. No. He'd simply bounded across the grounds with great energy, and was still kind of bouncy when he arrived at the makeshift classroom area, slightly flushed and a little out of breath. "Afternoon, Professor!" he smiled brightly, finding a seat as close to the front of the class as he possibly could, after the seats that had already been taken. Then he saw it. The ice cream. It had been too long since Tobias had eaten anything other than that vile rubbish they served in the Great Hall, and his eyes were fixed to the treat. It was nearly gone, but it was still enough to make Tobias' stomach growl in hunger; breakfast had not been satisfying enough, and he'd skipped lunch altogether after realising he was a knut short. "Where'd you get that?" the boy said in what was almost a pitiful whine as he nodded at the ice cream, forgetting that he was in a classroom setting altogether. |
OOC: Hey, guys. I'm really, really sorry, but something's come up, and I'm unable to start class tonight. I really hate this has happened on my first class, but things sometimes can't be avoided. Don't worry, though--I'm okay! I have to work tomorrow, but I'll try again tomorrow evening. Please feel free to continue RPing your charrie coming to class. Thanks, everyone, and I apologize again! :glomp: |
SPOILER!!: Tora & Isobel She was glad to know a few of the new Claws in her classes. It made everything a little bit more fun. She would have been having even more fun however, if the new professor had brought enough ice cream and cones for everyone to have one. I wonder if she did...I'd really like some. It's such a nice day out and ice cream would really just make it even more awesome... She made herself pay attention to the girls next to her though and not so much to the ice cream cone that was dripping down the side of its cone, taunting her taste buds and making her mouth water. She lowered her voice to show the younger girls that while some pleasantries were usually okay in the beginning of class, full blown conversations usually got some narrow-eyed looks. "I'm great Isobel, thanks for asking." She listened as Tora mentioned her homework and the new professor. Now that is something we definitely shouldn't discuss in class. She could have super hearing for all we know! So because of this, Eliza kept her answer extremely positive and brief. "Nope, nothing yet. But she's pretty and she must be nice if she likes animals, right?" She gave them both an excited grin in anticipation of the lesson that was surely about to start any moment now. |
*glomps Anna* Well, at least outside you expected to get dirty. Unlike inside the castle. But pretty much anywhere you went these days, you were bound to run into dirt. Which explained the spot of dirt she had on the lower part of her shirt from brushing against the door was she was walking out. Surely this professor wasn't like Bellaire about tidyness. She was in the wrong line of work if she was. Though Sky got the idea that this professor was a little more lighthearted since she was just finishing an ice cream cone as she made her way into the makeshift classroom. "Hello, Professor," she greeted before taking a seat on one of the benches and placing her bag on the ground beside her. Teach us something, professor. |
Swinging her bag as she went down to the CoMC lesson. Wondering what the new Professor would be like. She hadn't really payed attention during the feast. She wondered how many Professors would teach CoMC her whole seven years at Hogwarts, during the six years it was like three right, counting the newest one. Upon coming to the lesson, it didn't take long for Nerida to like the Professor she seemed chill... A smile appeared on her face as the realization occured that she was eating an ice cream cone and she was chill. Nerida wanted ice cream now, she would have to find some later. She gave a wave towards the professor and said "Hello Professor, welcome to Hogwarts!" |
...and Tora, Isobel, Eliza ^.^ ICE....CREAM. Like...holy snitch. Their gorgeous new Professor was eating ice cream. In class. So...excitement taking up a whole new level right here. Beezus practically bounced towards the woman, "Hellooo Professor! " She really was gorgeous, more so up close..the Ravenclaw thought. "And welcome to Hogwarts. The woman earned a broad smile and slight bow from her before she scuttled off to take a seat...but not before she eyed the ice cream cone on the woman's hand. Yeah. *eyeeeeeees* She also eyed her chickadees, as Mo like to call them, aka the younger Ravenclaws and sat next to them (beside Eliza specifically) and interrupted their little chit-chat. Interrupted Maybe that was why Addy hated her so much, because she tended to put a stop to the funsies. Only when it was necessary though. Besides, they were in class and even if it hasn't started yet...it was still ill-mannered if her Ravenclaws kept on talking with a Professor in front. She nudged Eliza gently, leaning in to peer at the two first years, "Keep the chatting low, okay girls?" Beezus winked at the trio before shifting her attention back to the ice cream. Because ice creams required fervent attention like that. |
Susan headed to the barn for Care of Magical Creatures class. She always liked this class and getting to see all the different kinds of creatures that existed. She hoped they would get to meet something fluffy and cute this semester. When Susan walked into the classroom she waved to the new professor. Then did a double take, was she eating ice cream. How cool was that?! Susan smiled at the professor, "Hello Professor, hope you are enjoying Hogwarts." Susan then went to go find a seat. |

Which made for twice in literally like two minutes that Tora was reprimanded. And one of them was given by a PREFECT. Great. She did feel bad about getting Eliza in trouble though. "Yeah probably," she agreed to Eliza lacking her former enthusiasm. She leaned behind Eliza for a minute to speak to the Prefect. "Ok! Sorry, and just so you know, it wasn't Eliza's fault." She then quickly turned back to her own space and pulled out a pencil. Remaining perfectly silent except for the scratch of the pencil doodling an ice cream in the notebook, she huddled in her seat with shame trying to keep to herself now. |
Care of Magical Creatures was interesting sometimes when they got to work with dangerous and interesting things of some sort, in Alice's opinion. She was hoping today was a day for treacherous animals as she chose a bench and greeted the lady with a "Morning, prof, welcome to Hogwarts." Also, were they going to go over the life cycle of a unicorn any time soon? Because she needed to brush up on that, or any other life cycles in general, for Aireyhead and star reasons. Right, though, this wasn't Astronomy, it was CoMC. Thinking cap on. |
She had basically run all the way to Care of Magical Creatures - she wasn't even winded. Her face, you could tell she had just run because it was CoMC and she loved it. How could she not with her parents being magizooligists? She just beamed as she entered the make-shift classroom. When she looked around to find a friend to sit with she just balked - her bestie was here she hadn't had a class with him in a while...sure she'd seen him in Astronomy but that was a different story. She walked forward a bit and without speaking just took a seat on the end of the bench right next to him. Up close and in his personal space bubble. Yep. She had just squeeeeeezed her way in like a creepy mouse creeping into a room through a hole. "Hey Kaid - Ella, Alec" she beamed to them all. Beaming was good. Beaming was fun - and it kind of hurt sometimes. Glancing up at the Professor she noticed the ice cream and just eyed it. She wanted her ice cream. Well, no, she wanted one of her own. "Hello Professor" she smiled kindly in her direction. Yeah maybe she was just dreaming about ice cream cones - heck, it was obvious she was even holding her arm out like she was holding an ice cream cone in it. |
New professor and stuff yes? West was keen to see if this one would be any good. It was always interesting when new ones appeared since you could tell right away if you were going to learn good or not. Or at least he thought so. ... that was different. She was eating ice cream? Also... also... *nervous swallow* she was kind of... kind of... extremelygoodlookingandstuff. So much so that he didn't even look at certain people for once. Strange and stuff. Cough. West sat down without saying hello. For reasons. |
Animal class this way.... Yes she knows what the class is technically called. But its so long Aquila shortened it to Animal Class in her head. Less confusing is always good for her. “Goodmorning Professor...uhmm...” uhoh she forgot the name. Cue clumsily looking at her class schedule “—Peyton!” *extra bright beaming* |
Juliet was aware that there will be a new professor for the COMC subject. She saw her passed by through the Slytherin table during the feast but didn't really get the glimpse of who she was. Thankfully the headmistress did the job of introducing and all that. Making her way outside of Hogwarts and into their comfortable COMC classroom, Juliet couldn't wait to what they will be tackling today. Entering the place, Juliet saw the professor and WHAAAAAAT?!?!?!!? Is that what she think it is????? Juliet saw the professor eating ice cream? Now she wants ice cream. Share. Pouts. Juliet walked to find herself a seat and as she did, she gave the professor a smile "Lovely day for ice cream, Professor" she greeted. Only because she knows 90% of the people in this room would love some ice cream too---- including her. |
Care Of Magical Creatures. It's wasn't a hated subject of his, but it wasn't his favorite either. It was just there. He moved along the Benches and found a spot somewhere in the middle of everything. He watched and listened to everyones fascination with this new Professor eating of an Ice Cream cone. Geeze, it's just a food, and unhealthy for you too. Now if she was eating a tree of broccoli or a carrot, that would perk Oakey's interest in this new Professor. "Good Afternoon Professor." He said, as he set his things down below the bench. |
Remembering how mortified she was in Potions class when she was reprimanded for not greeting the Professor, Carsyn sat in a panic at the back of the benches trying to figure out what to do. Did she get up and walk up to greet the Professor? That would be so awkward, seeing as how she had already chosen a seat. She tried to make eye contact with the Professor and smiled, hoping that would be enough to not appear rude or disinterested. Sigh. Carsyn really needed to work on her people skills. |
Kommoto ran in to somebody on his way to the class. "I'm so late", he moaned. He found the class nestled between a barn and some other building. Joining the group, he caught his breath. When he had recovered enough, he looked around, and realized that others were still coming in as well. Relieved, he leaned against the barn wall, happy to have made it to class. |
Care of Magical Creatures was one of her most favorite subject. She didn't mind working with animals and their stuff. It was fun, she thought. Christina wondered what would they learn today. Perhaps a dangerous creature one? She hoped so. Walking happily to the the grounds, she entered the place and watched the Professor was eating ice cream. Damn, I want ice cream too now. She mumbled. "Good day, Professor." She smiled and took her seat |
Care of Magical Creatures. Not one of Nessie's favorite subjects, but she was curious, curious to see if this new Professor was any good or not. The lesson probably wouldn't be too bad anyways. It all depended on what creatures they'd be working with, if they were working with creatures for the lesson that was. As she stepped inside the classroom she scanned the new Professor for a few moments. Looked alright, not to strict or maybe a little? She'd have to wait and see. "Good Afternoon, Profesor." She gave the woman a small pout. "Hope you are enjoying Hogwarts." Even with the happenings, which Ness was beginning to think they weren't that bad...or maybe they were. A seaaat, she needed one. The Hufflepuff looked around plonked on an empty bench and waited for the class to begin. |
This was awesome! Not that Rhodes liked animals or creatures a whole lot, she had a cat and an owl and sometimes they were too much for her, but the fact that they were actually having a lesson outside instead of inside that stuffy old castle was what had her the most excited. She wasn't sure what was going on with the castle and how dirty it was, but at least being outside, dirt was to be expected. Inside shouldn't be dirty, outside should. It made sense to her. Shoes on her hands, because they were outside and being outside meant you didn't need to wear shoes, the Slytherin made her way over the grounds towards the place where the lesson was being held and stopped once she reached the others. And the Professor. Who she needed to say something to. Right. "Hello, Professor!" she gave the woman a smiiiiile before taking a seat on one of the nearest benches. Oh, look! Michael was there. Rhodes pretended to throw her shoes at him. |
Text Cut: There is a reply for EVERYBODY under this textcut "If you haven't found a seat, find one now, please. Class is starting," she said. She didn't have a door to shut, but if she did, this would be shutting time. Anybody arriving after this point would be late. "Quieten down while you're at it. Class time isn't social hour, and I won't speak over you." RAWR. ...and then she smiled. No, she wasn't a force to reckoned with, but she wasn't Little Miss Sunshine either. "My name is Professor Barlow. Thank you for welcoming me to the school, but I have to tell you that I, too, was once a student here. I'm a former Slytherin and of the class of 2068," she said. They could do the math. "Yes, you do get a chance to eat ice cream later, but no, I don't have any for you here." Again, she was no one's house elf. They could get their own ice cream. "There's more where my cone came from right in our very own Great Hall." She propped herself up on the edge of her desk then looked out over the crowd. "I graduated from Wizarding University with a master's degree in magizoology. My specialization is ingredients harvesting." Yes, yes. The Care of Magical Creatures professor harvested ingredients, and she was pretty darn good at it, too. "Since university, I've worked at a harvesting center and reserve, where I took care of unicorns and mooncalves. I also harvested the hair from the unicorns to be used for wandmaking, and the dung from the mooncalves to be used by Herbologists and fertilizing companies." "Now, which ingredients do you know of that can be harvested from a magical creature without doing any major harm to that creature?" she asked. |
Carsyn thought long and hard. At first, everything that came to mind involved the parts of dead animals, which didn't qualify as not hurting the original creature. But then she remembered one and offered it aloud (though admittedly not very loudly, as Carsyn had the quietest of voices),"The secretions of bundimuns, Professor? " |
Well, now that was an introduction. Nigel still wanted some ice cream though. And some Pie but that could wait. He did hear that one hufflepuff made some awesome pies. He did not want to do the math. But he did get the summary of her introduction/speech. "Well, the the horn and tail hair of a unicorn" Nigel knew they were used in potions. It must be because they do no harm to the unicorn. |
Er...that wasn't exactly what she meant when she'd ask. Hadn't the Professor thought to bring enough for everyone? It would have been a wonderful starting gift to get everyone enthused about the lesson--really she just wanted ice-cream. Dinner wasn't until after this lesson was over and she didn't think she was allowed to eat in this class. Ah well. She settled more comfortably into her seat and listened to the woman talk about herself. This was good. She could do this, no problem. It wasn't like she as still bouncing a little in her seat. What ever anyone that Oh! Oh! Oh! Question!!!--Question she didn't know the answer to. Yeah. She got those a lot. She did have a question of her own though. "Professor, seeing as you stressed the whole not harming the creatures bit it means there are ingredients that hurt when you take them too, right. Can I have an example of one of those?" She knew of one, maybe, thanks to the now graduated Slytherin perfect, Sierra. Kneazle whiskers, ugh. |
Anya thought for a few seconds. A potion ingredient that didn't do major harm? Why did the only things that come to mind involve... blood... or innards? "Boomslang skin." she said after raising her hand. Snakes shed skin all on their own. |
Eliza blushed deeply at the comment Professor Barlow made about not talking in class as she was sure it had been meant for herself and her friends. She didn't think it was that distracting since they were outdoors and class hadn't started, and she'd tried to wrap up their pleasantries as quickly as possible, but now she saw it hadn't been quiet quickly enough. She felt her breath stick in her chest as she worried about losing points for it. Shoot...just...agh. She tried to move past it though and raised her hand to answer the question. "Wouldn't removed phoenix feathers be harmless, since they molt some before they ignite?" She thought they did anyway. She gave an apologetic look to Beezus, still blushing about the chatting before class. |
"How about the horn of a Bicorn, since they shed those annually?" Alice's hand shot up as quickly as she could get it to, so no one could call out one of the answers that had popped into her mind already. She could think of a few more off the top of her head, but she stopped naming them and quieted down. And started paying more attention to Lex, because she was asking fantastic questions as well. And she knew the answer to that one, too! Could Alice respond to it even though Professor Barlow wasn't the one who had asked? No? Okay. Well. Lady was an expert on magizoology or whatever. She'd have good examples for sure. The fifth year was waiting for them. |
Professor Barlow...That was Edric's last name, wasn't it? Ella tilted her head and observed the professor carefully, trying to find some resemblance. After a minute or two the small blonde determined that the woman was not nearly ogre-ish enough to be related to her big best brother!friend. ...Even if she did sort of have the same snappy attitude it seemed. The whole working with unicorns and mooncalves thing, that was interesting. Ella's curiosity was peaked instantly and she had questions, lots of them. She'd need to hold them for later though as she had one to answer now. Ingredients harvested without harming the creature? Hm. "Jobberknoll, peacock, and owl feathers are known ingredients and one wouldn't necessarily cause major harm to those creatures when harvesting them." |
West absorbed all of this with interest. All of the interest.Things about the new professor... would they be tested on them? She was a Slytherin TOO? Cool. Oh question. West had to think for a second before volunteering an answer, hand raised. "Flobberworm Mucus, because they excrete it naturally." Not a particularly exciting answer, but still a true one right? |
Now this was a lesson Mo could get behind. Not only talking about animals, but talking about NOT HURTING animals. In fact, it was sort of thoughtful on behalf of trying to get what they needed for magical purposes without causing any harm to the creature in question. That was pretty responsible living, as far as Mo was concerned. Plus the professor was pretty in an entirely different way than Professor Pretty was. Professor Other Pretty. He raised his hand. "Acromantula venom, Professor, only I wouldn't really recommend people harvesting that willy nilly. They have great huge teeth and a lot of excessive anger when it comes to their meals running away. And by meals, I mean the people trying to harvest their venom." |
STARE. Dylan hadn't said hello...and there had been reasons. The new Care of Magical Creatures Professor was massively hot. Like...perhaps even hotter than Professor Bentley...and the Slytherin was kinda just staring at her face. Also, she'd been a Slytherin. Beautiful and dangerous, obviously. Rawr, indeed. Clearing his throat, he offered a genuinely bright smile and raised his hand, all polite-like. "Dragon blood, ma'am? Surely you could just put them to sleep and take vials." |
There was ICE CREAM in the GREAT HALL?! Tobias would be getting in on that later tonight for sure. After listening to the Professor introduce herself using a lot of long words that Tobias didn't understand, the young Hufflepuff leaned forwards eeeeeever so slightly as a way of somehow getting himself to pay attention better. At the question, he raised his hand. He didn't know a lot (read: anything) about magical ingredients, but he had one theory. "Professor, for some ingredients, like... I dunno... feathers and stuff, is it possible with anything that you can somehow ask the animal's permission to take it? Like, you know how you can bow to a Hippogriff and they will allow you to get close to it and stuff? Something like that but harvesting stuff from them instead? And then maybe the stuff you harvest could have better properties?" Tobias lowered his hand. He may have been hyper and stuff and seemed like a bit of an annoyance to have in class, but he had been well educated in the past and this had led him to be as inquisitive as possible. And it kind of related to the question. At any rate, it would help him think of more answers. |
Haruka thought for a moment. It was a bit tough to think of anything that didn't involved hurting the creature, and what she did think of was mentioned immediately. "How about Threstral hair, ma'am?" Haruka finally said. "It could be harvested just like the Unicorn hair you mentioned earlier." |
The teacher mentioned unicorns several times. An Tag's mind began to wander when he heard the word. He started to wiggle around in his seat and smiled like an idiot just at the mention of the creature. It was his favorite creature. "The horn of a uni-corn?" Tag spoke up quietly, slowly and uncertainly. He didn't like saying that cause it sounded as if he were suggesting for people to go after 'his kind' even though, hopefully, it would not hurt the unicorn. |

Phew! It seemed like she had made it to class right on time. Rhodes quickly shook her shoes from off her hands and threw them to the ground by her feet while the Professor began to talk about.. things she really didn't care about. She didn't think she was going to have to know when the woman graduated Hogwarts, or what she did after. Hearing all that information just made her want to ask a few questions, but then those answers would just want to make her ask more questions and the Professor didn't look like the type who would want to be bombarded with questions. Besides, they were the ones being asked the questions, and Rhodes shot her hand straight into the air. Too bad she didn't leave the shoe there. She probably would have been noticed faster. "Harvesting a creature's eggs wouldn't harm it." Having the creature lay the eggs, however, that was a whole other story. |
Michael was sure that both his parents had told him about creatures and what their uses were but he could not remember what they were. Okay he could remember one but he had no idea if it had any use, he just liked saying the name. It made him laugh. He raised his hand in the air. "I think you can harvest something from a Glumbumble." Haha! Yeah it still made him laugh when he said it. Also, we see you Rhodes and your shoes. He would get her back later for that. |
This class was one that she immediately liked. Really, a Professor with a side of spunk and someone who knew how to harvest things from creatures without hurting them. That was definitely a plus. Her mum would approve of her she knew this immediately. However, listening to the other student's response's she felt her stomach knot in despair. Had someone really just said that harvesting a unicorn's horn wasn't going to harm the soon-to-be defenseless creature. Her idea of harmless was more a hair here, a toe nail clipping there - nothing that could cause a creature excruciating (or even dull) pain. Pain wasn't something she liked doling out. Unless, well, unless it was justified. Raising her hand she just smiled, and raised her voice. "Professor I believe since Boomslangs are snakes and snakes shed their skins - a Boomslang wouldn't be harmed in the collection of its discarded skins." Really, discarding things like that did come in handy especially because it was a main ingredient in Polyjuice potion. |
"Nah, it's okay." She shrugged at Tora when the girl began apologizing. "And I'm not blaming any of you." She patted Eliza's back too because the girl looked as though she could really use it, having that kind of apologetic expression and all. Really though. Hush now eaglettes... The Professor was taking the floor. ....Introductions and all that. And then the first question was thrown about. Beezus of course, raised her hand up and waited when it was her turn to speak. Ingredients that can be harvested that won't bring forth any harm to the creature. She knew one or two....aside from all those already said. "Doxy droppings, Professor. " Did it even need an explanation why it wasn't harmful to the doxies? |
This was simple enough for Nate. He basically spent his entire summer studying for the OWLs that he would have to take this year. He could not fail! If he did his older brother would ring out his neck.....like a wet rag.....that's been used to dry everything in the great hall.....that was underwater in the Black Lake. He knew that the ingredient he was about to say is extremely hard to harvest, but it was a still an ingredient. The Professor never specified that it HADto be a COMMON ingredient. So he raised his hand like the others and simply stated "I know this is a very hard ingredient to harvest, or buy, but Phoenix Tears are an ingredient that doesn't affect the Phoenix." Tis true. |
SPOILER!!: zeProf Barlow? The young blond looked quizzically at the Professor before checking her schedule again... and then realized that she’s been staring at the Professor’s first name. “I—I’m sorry Professor Barlow.” She mumbled squeaked as she turned the shade of a strawberry and huddled down to take her seat... preferably somewhere off to the side and away from the woman’s line of sight, at least at first glance. And goodness this one harvest creature parts... alas for this young one to think of that occupation as something that means dismembering the creature. There was a question... well at least it that sounded a bit kinder. She raised her hand hesitantly mostly because she wanted to answer it but not be stared at as the student to screw up a name “Uhm... Streelers secrete venom when they move, that gets collected and is used to deal with Horklump infestation.” |
Kommoto listened to everyone shout out answers. He had no idea. He tried to hear what people were discussing, to see if he could pick up an answer that way. No luck. Well, there was only one thing to do. He sat down and let others answer this one for him. there would be other questions he could answer. He could wait. |
Text Cut: Professor Barlow! Of COURSE he name was excellent. Peyton was her father's middle name, so yeah, it was the greatest name in all of history. Wait... :whaa::whaa::whaa: No ice cream. WHAT. A. DISAPPOINTMENT. Peyton shrugged as if she was okay with that fact, but really, she wasn't. Though she was in a stellar mood, she wanted ice cream, and now that she's seen it she was CRAVING it. So the professor shared names, but not ice cream. Was that even LEGAL? Well, it should be, Peyton decided. Oh, boohoohoooo. Text Cut: Troy! Sitting next to Troy, Peyton watched as the professor began the lesson. She was still thinking about ice cream. But she'd get that right after the lesson was over. Eeeep! Listening and nodding at what Professor Barlow said, Peyton beamed at her when she mentioned to have been a Slytherin. CoMC ruled by Slytherins, heck yeah! And then Barlow went ahead and mentioned ice cream, which got Peyton all excited. She would live off of ice cream if she could. Breakfast. Lunch. Dinner. Yep. When the question was asked, Peyton's hand flew into the air, her bum perched at the edge of her seat, her fingers wiggling in the air. "Ashwinder eggs, there's those," she said, BEAMING at Professor Barlow. |
Kace should of known it was vanilla ice cream but it was always polite to ask and seem interested. He heard she wasn't sharing ice cream? Aww man he was really craving some. Maybe he would go to the great hall and get some after the lesson.... Then he heard the question the professor asked. He really had no idea. He was a first year after all. He heard all the other older students answering the question and they seemed legit so he went along with their answers. |
Tora had to think about that one for a bit. Then she thought back to one of the first things about potions that she had learned. She raised her hand. "A Beozoar. Even if it has to be surgically removed, it can still be removed painlessly and unless it is something like a rock inside those birds and other animals that purposely eat them, it doesn't do anything for or against their digestive system." she said clearly. Even before she came to Hogwarts, Gram had taught her about beozoars. They were a basic ingredient in antidotes and it was just something one needed to know as a which or wizard. |

Sitting there in his cozy seat between Seeker Sir, and Miks Kaiden listened as the new Professor Lady introduced herself. Oh, she seemed interesting, and that seemed like a really cool job. Something they could harvest without major damage? oh, well, that was tricky. You know, since he didn't know most of the creatures people were naming, or many ingredients. But skins, yeah, that would definitely harm a creature. Unless... HE raised his hand. "Ma'am? is there some sort of creature that sheds skin? because you could harvest that. Oh, and thought. Or you could harvest blood too. You know, like the doctors do, a syringe full, or if its a bigger creature it could be like donating blood. I mean, it would probably hurt a little, but no damage." Thought, he supposed that would depend on how much was needed. |
Minerva sat quietly until the lesson had started and the new professor introduced herself. Oh she was a former students well that seemed exciting to have another alumni be part of the staff. As she spoke of her education Minerva was very impressed. All of that sounded so interesting. As she asked the first question Min thought about that. There were many things they could get ingredients from, but things that were harmless. "Professor, what about Unicorn's tail." It would be harmless to get it, you could just brush their tail out and some would fall without even pulling at it, but you would have to get the unicorn to stand still and Min wasn't sure that was something that people could do or not. |
Another Slytherin professor? Well obviously because Slytherin's are the best. Period. An ingredient that wouldn't harm an animal when you harvested it? Hadn't Professor Barlow just mentioned one? And no one had said it yet? "Mooncalf dung." For the same reasons it wouldn't harm a doxy. |
Then the class had started. Christina needed to remember this Professor's name since she wasn't good in memorizing people's names. Professor Peyton Barlow. Another Slytherin alumna, now she felt proud being a Slytherin. Not because her father was also one of them but the other alumni were awesome too. Okay, back to the lesson! Things that they could harvest from the creature without doing any harm. Hmm.. "How about.. phoenix tears and hippogriff dung, Professor?" She spoke as she raised her hand. Because to get the dung and tears you didn't need to kill them, right? |
Quote:
Theo's face went blank for a few seconds as other students started throwing answers all over the place. They went straight through him, though, and the Slytherin couldn't think of one example, so he went with a safe answer. He put up his hand lazily. "Some creatures have poop that can be used." And that certainly didn't cause them any harm. |
SLYTHERIN. Hearing that Professor Barlow was a former Slytherin, Kat was filled with house pride. It was awesome to have former Hogwarts students sorted into Slytherin teach a class. The prefect was sure to pay attention to this class attentively and participate a lot. House points you know, and to make Slytherin proud. Her first name was Peyton, as she heard when she was speaking to Kat's ickle, who was Peyton too. Err... yeah. Ingredients that don't cause major harm to the creatures. Hmm, that was interesting. While Kat was listening to the other students share their answer, she was thinking of one too. They were all taking away her answers and stuff. Kat raised her hand. "Doxy eggs." It doesn't harm. Mhm. |
SPOILER!!: Miss Barlow Professor Barlow, a really really pretty professor with some awesome taste in ice cream-- that btw, Juliet will totally have after this class at the great hall. Juliet listened as the professor did her introduction. A smirk formed on her lips the moment she heard that the professor was a former Slytherin. YEAH! She's one of them. Juliet's already liking her at the moment. And then it starts.... her first question. Juliet looked at the professor, still sort of speechless. She should have talked some more. Hmmm, harvesting without doing any too much damage from the creature. Juliet raised her hand, she's not quite sure with her answer but it's worth a try? She's not even sure if it is a real answer. "Anything excreted from a creature?" she said "like dragon dung " |
Laura looked at the professor and smiled as she raised her hand. "Well the obvious choice would be Dragon dung because it doesn't hurt the animal and it is used as a fertiliser." Laura was sure that it would smell bad but well if they wanted to use it as a fertiliser she wouldn't stop them. |
Good Merlin! Hot professor was hot! And she had been eating ice cream in class. How lovable was that? Very, in Richard Turner's opinion. Plus she was a Slytherin then he had no doubt that she was as smart as she was hot. As she spoke, Rich just stared at the woman ignoring everyone else in the class. They were not worth his attention right now anyway. And in a class a good student only paid attention to the professor, right? True thing. Rich wanted to be a good student now. With a slight smirk on his face, he stared at the woman. Professor Barlow. Yeah...this Slytherin would be definitely up to eating an ice cream cone in the Great Hall if she wanted to join him as well. *grin* Whatever...he decided to pay attention to the question she asked now. ''Lobalug venom'' |
Completely missing the raised eyebrow from the Professor, The Slytherin went to sit at a bench and grabbed his notebook out together with his quill to write down notes. When class began, he looked up at the new Professor , cheeks still a little red. She was a SLYTHERIN?! O_________o oh yeah! But SLYTHERIN! thats sooooo awesome and...wait...what? Daichi shook his head when he realized he had totally MISSED the question. Scratching the back of his neck, he looked at his classmates when they answered one by one. "Huh?" he said out loud though of course to himself. ARGH! he needed to pay attention now! |
Quote:
Sonea learned that her name was professor Barlow and… Sonea sat immediately upright now that she knew that her teacher was a old Slytherin! This was good, she now hoped that professor Barlow would favor the Slytherin students, but Sonea was not sure if that was going to happen… Sonea tried to listen to all the things what the professor was telling the class but she couldn’t keep her attention to the class, if she was honest she wasn’t really interested in professor Barlow’s story and what she had learned or not, but she kept silent and pretended to be listening. But… she was too late to realize that it was not a good idea to not listen to the professor because she had asked a question to the class and she hasn’t heard it! Sonea shifted uneasy in her seat and kept silent, she hoped that somebody else would answer the question correct so that she could make her notes. |
what can they take from what without harming huh!? yeah Ariana was NO genius when it came to CoMC.. clearly.. it was possibly her Worst subject. not that she didn't care about magical creatures but she just didn't understand half of it, and she didn't know why really. it was hard.. She looked around really confused and just really didn't know. but that's why she was here right? to learn about things she did not know. She hoped taking notes were okay as she began writing down what some people we're saying weather they were right or not. she would cross them out if they we're wrong and figure it out.. Learning.. that's what she was Clearly doing... |
Susan listened to the professor as she started giving her background. She sounds really smart and knows what she is doing. Susan felt a little intimidated by the professor, she didn't want to sound stupid in front of the professor. Susan thought about different things that could be harvested from magical creatures without harming them. Susan's favorite was the Phoenix and she knew you could use their feathers to make wands so it must not hurt them, well she hoped it wouldn't hurt them. Susan frowned at this thought. "Umm...what about Phoenix feathers professor?" Susan didn't think anybody said that yet. |
Sarah thought it was strange that a COMC teacher would be an expert at harvesting things, as it was like apoacher working as a ranger. Maybe she and Lafy would get along well. She had thought of lots of other answers to the question, yet as the other studnets answered they kept on taking her answer so she had to think of another one. "how about Porcupine quills? porcupines are always regenerating them and all." Sarah said upon raising her hand. She was wondering if fingernails were ever used, that would be interesting. |
Slytherin. That word right there made Ness not too happy, but then not all of them were bad right? Maybe this Professor was one of the better ones, one of the more relaxed ones? Nessie would give her try, like most people said it wasn't fair to judge a book by it's cover if that even made sense in this current situation. Anyways, question. What to answer it with? Pout. Pout. Pout. Ohh maybe a fairy, because people used their lights? Noo, but that wasn't really harvesting. Or maybe it would be counted? She pouted some more and tried to think of back up as she raised her hand. "Professor I would say we could harvest a fairies light? But that doesn't really make sense so I'm going to say maybe a pygmy puffs fur with scissors? Because Puffles was what came to her mind as back up and that made sense, yeah? |
Text Cut: Points all around "Good, good. I'm glad we're all on the same page, pretty much, with what we can harvest without harming the creature we are harvesting from," she said. She raised her hand, and in it was a small, frozen egg. "Eggs are the focus of our harvesting today, particularly the eggs harvested from an Ashwinder. In today's class, we're going to produce Ashwinders from fire and then collect their eggs." ...and there was a reason for that, but they'd get to that soon enough. "So what can you tell me about Ashwinders and the eggs of Ashwinders?" she asked the class. |
Ella smiled at the new professor, her excitement growing. They'd be harvesting eggs today? That was quite cool and the sixteen year old was itching to get to the practical portion of the lesson. Facts first though, it seemed. Raising her hand, the blonde offered, "Professor, Ashwinders are born in magical fires when they are left burning unchecked. Their eggs, when frozen, can be used in a love potion." Or so she'd read...since the blonde had spent an extensive amount of time in the library since being back. Sigh. OWLs to prepare for and all that, yeah? |
Oh hey Professor, guess what? She knew the answer this time which meant she wouldn't be asking another question from the question just asked. Though, if she was being honest, she really did want to know the answer to that question and it was informative. Unicorn blood. She would have never thought about that. Hurting unicorns didn't seem like a real thing. Her cousin had something to do with that line of thinking but there it was. Creeps hurt unicorns, real creeps. Anyway, back to the question that she totally had a answer to because she knew it! "The eggs are really hot and flammable. Ella said their used for love potions when they're frozen but they're even neater when you live 'em because they can light other stuff in the area on fire as well." It was neat, it was. Just...probably not for the people nearby if they didn't master the aguamenti charm or something. As for the Ashwinder. "The Ashwinder themselves are pityful though, they only live for about an hour. I don't imagine you can do very many epic things in only an hour." Quite pityful. |
Quote:
"Their eggs can cure... something." He'd totally forgotten. Lurgy, maybe. "If you eat them." Which would be disgusting. Theo would rather suffer with the lurgy. |

Awesome! His answer had been right. Michael gave himself a small punch in the arm for his good effort. He was thinking about sticking his tongue out at Rhodes but the Professor Lady was talking again and so he made sure to pay attention. He was a little disappointed that they were not going to be talking about Glumbumbles. Hehe. But were actually going to talk about the other creature he had thought about mentioning. Michael raised his hand in the air. "Ashwinders come about when you leave a magic fire burning too long." Or something like that. "It's a snake with BIG glowing red eyes." There were other facts about them but he wouldn't be selfish. He'd let the other students have a go and besides he couldn't actually remember the other stuff. |
