The greenhouses are where lessons usually take place. But when there are no lessons being held, they are a place for students to come and get some grardening, researching or looking around done. This would actually make Professor Walton happy.
However, you will notice that there are seven greenhouses. In each one a different variety of plants is being kept. The ones that are easy to deal and work with are in the lower-numbered ones and as the number goes up the plants become more dangerous and would require more experience and credibility to handle. So you won't need permission to access greenhouses from one to four but you will need Professor Andrew's permission to access the greenhouses five, six and seven.
As you enter whichever of the greenhouses you will see rows and rows of plants neatly tidied and positioned in an accurate spot in regard of sunlight. A few of them will occasionally need to be turned around, trimmed and taken care of and that's what you will find Professor Andrew doing should you run into him. He also will be roaming around keeping an eye out on things and people.
You are not allowed to harm any plant in any way. You must always be prepared for anything and if you need the Professor's help all you have to do is call for him, he's either in his office or in one of the greenhouses. Also, you do not need to bring equipment with you because in each one of the greenhouses there is a cupboard that has everything you might need; gloves, robes, shovels, pots of all sizes, cultivators, fertilizers...etc.
OOC: -You do have to RP getting permission to access the greenhouses five, six and seven. And please be realistic, a firstie won't be allowed to be near dangerous plants without assistance.
-Please do not let your character damage anything because Andrew WILL deduct points. Still, this is a place to have fun besides learning, so enjoy it!
-If you need Andrew just title your post so that I will post for you.

Leaving the bouncing bulb on the ground where it stopped with bouncing and now lay half hidden under a table, Kevin had walked back to the cart. With his phoenix feather core wand at the ready, he immediately pointed it at one of the bulbs and casted the flipendo spell.
He took a few steps forward and quickly grabbed the bulb before the spell would wear off. Back at his table, Kevin placed the bulb in the second pot more carefully now and then with the small garden shovel he added soil to the pot so that the bouncing bulb was secured.

Soil, check. Pot, check, cheeky bulb, check. She was all set. All she needed now was full cooperation from her bulb. Just for good measure, AJ tugged her gloves on a little tighter. They didn't bite, did they? No, she couldn't remember the professor saying anything like that, but that lesson had been insane with people catching on fire and what not. It was easy to miss things.
Anywho, AJ wasted no time. She flung some soil into the pot, and eyed her bulb, You had to let them know who was boss every once in awhile. So far this bulb wasn't testing her patience too much. Maybe he watched what happened to the other bulb when that sort of thing happened.
AJ picked up the bulb and placed it gently in the pot. Did you see that, other bulb? That was how you were treated when you behaved right. Once it was nice and settled, AJ covered it up to the halfway point with more soil. There. Now she had two perfectly planted bulbs. She put them up and cleaned up her area, making sure to put any extra supplies back in the cupboard. You could stick a fork in her because this chick is done.

Wait, hold on...where was he?
Caleb blinked. He was in the greenhouses...planting a bouncing bulb? Hadn't he already done that? There were lots of other students around him doing the same thing, but he didn't see the professor, so....he was going to assume this was NOT class. Was this...homework? Did he have homework to do?
He was so confused. He looked at the pot he had filled with soil...and decided it was probably what he was supposed to be doing. Ugh, his head hurt SO bad. He looked back at the pot and at the bouncing bulb...that was bouncing away!
Oh no!
"Oi! Stop! I mean..." what did he do? He took his wand out and pointed it right at the bouncing plant. "Flipendo!" he exclaimed. BAM! Direct hit! The plant stopped long enough for Caleb to grab it and bring it back to his station.
Alright, now he could get this potted and get out of here...he needed a cup of tea for his headache...

Cutty buried the bouncing bulb, though only until the recommended depth before looking up to see...the smarter twin. "There you go, Caleb. Show that bulb who's boss!"
He moved over to his last pot and held onto each side of it kicking it a little to settle the dirt. Best have the rest of the substrate ready so he moved over to the creaky-doored cupboard and used one of the measuring bowls to gather some additional dirt for covering the last bulb.

Oh, there was Cutty. "Ugh, yeah, sure," Caleb replied with a smile. He was still confused. So Cutty was here, ok...was he doing homework too? Alright, now he was pretty convinced that he had right. This was homework time. Earning points, wooooo. He still had a headache though. Why did he have a headache?
Much confusion. Such anxiety.
Alright, now to pot this sucker and get back to work. He took the bulb that had been knocked back with his jinx and popped it in the pot. He had already filled it with soil...despite not remembering it at ALL.

Cutty had always seen Caleb Newell as a bit aloof, save for the occasion when he'd been all aggro over something, so at his tri-syllabled remark no serious red flags were triggered. He looked a bit sick, though. Maybe he could try healing him again as he did when they were last in the Greenhouses together. It was a weird feeling, having control over someone else's body. Cutty enjoyed it plenty. Oddly, for Caleb it bent in the direction of benefit for the Newell boy.
Caleb's bulb was upsetting the other bulbs nearby and so Cutty took precaution. "Flipendo!" He said firing at one of them, perhaps unnecessarily, and brought it over to his pot. It was strange how that spell seemed to render them mellow. He gave the little bulb a soft spank and placed it into the soil, then covered it just so. Was it angry? Cutty couldn't tell.
curly haired prefect - "sometimes I get angry!" - 30/90 - *chicken emoji* - probably @ Disney - I speak dog
Ok, the plant was in the pot, now he had to cover it up so it wouldn't bounce back up. It was getting kind of wiggly there in the pot...so Caleb quickly stuffed it into the dirt he'd already put in there. Then, he hurried over to the soil and got some more, bringing it to his station.
He took a few handfuls of soil and started pouring it on top on of the bulb. The instructions said to only HALF bury it, so he made sure that there were still some spots of the bulb exposed. It had slowed down it's wiggling to just a few twitches now...so he was pretty sure he was safe and he wasn't going to lose the bulb by having it jump out of the pot...

AH. They were really restless. Were they like this last time too? Wait a minute. How come these plants were always bouncing around?.... They must get tired at some point. No one can be that energized ALL the time. Zander would know. Even Zahra had to take a break once in a while and she's Zahra, so that's saying something. Either way, he kept approaching the plants slowly and right as he got to a safe distance, he stuck his wand out right in front of himself.
Ready.... Aim.... FIRE!
Ahem. Or, "Uh, Flipendo!" And sure enough the little plant toppled over to it's side. Looking a little less... bouncy. Right.
The Gryffindor grabbed it in a hurry- so that it wouldn't start kicking or whatever- and practically RAN back to his work station. He then took his shovel and more soil and basically stuck it into the pot as fast as he could. PHEW! One plant potted.
Wait a minute. Why the heck did he grab two flower pots?! That meant he had to do one more... -___________- This would've never happened if Beautiful Bentley was here. #ThanksWalton

With the pot right in front of her she carefully sent the potentially volatile thing into its future home. Placing the bulb into the now a little over half-full bucket she began to burry it in the soil when she heard Cutty speaking again. She glanced over to him and grinned, aww he like her technique?
RATTLE!bounce.
Merlin the thing wasn’t buried enough. “Flipendo” she cast a silent flipendo before burying the now stunned bulb in the soil and turning her attention fully to Cutty and…the other guy? The other guy…Caleb, apparently, didn’t seem to look so good…maybe he looked a bit confused?
“yeah they are giant fussy babies” she reiterated and nodded at Cutty’s point. “Oh, thanks…I kind of noticed in class the other gryffindors would be all loud and then would get knocked in the face by them or well…yeah” that was kind of the case with gryffindors. Loudness came with the territory.
She heard the spell behind her and turned to send Caleb a grin and two thumbs up. Okay, so this Cutty guy seemed funny. She covered the bulb with the soil that she had left over and grinned. There. Three potted things that could grow to the size of doors.

The longer he worked with the bulbs the easier this assignment was because now he really had it under control. His confidence shot up when as he walked back to the cart but when the bulbs began to tremble he had to stop walking until they stopped and he then tiptoed his way towards the plants.
After reaching, the Gryffindor pointed his wand at one and said "Flipendo" it hit and the bouncing bulb became calmer. He picked it up with his gloved hands and walked back in the direction of his working station. He placed the bulb inside of the pot and then burried it half way with soil until it was secured. He looked at the three pots in front of him and grinned. He was pretty good at this if he had to say so himself, he deserved a snack.
With a wave of his wand, Kevin cleaned up the soil that he had spilt on the table. Then he scourgified the garden shovel before placing it back in the cupboard together with the bag of soil. He wasn't sure what to do with the potted plants though ...but that wasn't his problem so he grabbed his bag and took off his gloves and walked out of the greenhouse.
Once the bulbs were planted securely, Cutty looked about at the mess that had created. It wasn't much, really, but nonetheless he'd made it and wasn't about to go down like a barbarian to Professor Walton.
A savage maybe. Or possibly even a civilized monster, but NOT a barbarian.
He lifted the measuring bowl, carried it over to the creaky-doored cupboard and with his wand scourgified it to prevent the transfer of plant disease. Once he'd tucked away the bowl, he shut the cupboard, then moved along the potting area holding onto his wand. "Evanescoe! Evanescoe!" He went about like a smallish muggle vaccum cleaner getting rid of the excess dirt he'd missed when potting.
A once over later, Cutty determined the mess he'd made to be clear and departed from the Greenhouse.

First step? Getting the things he needed and filling up the pot with soil.
Moving away from his workstation, Grayson headed over towards where the pots were placed. He was all about putting in just enough required effort to not make him seem lazy but to still get the grade he needed, which was why he was only planning on doing this just the once. BUT, when hie blue eyes fell on the number of pots and then back at the number of Bouncing Bulbs that needed to be potted, something inside of him wondered whether he should help out and work on two instead. Or three. Or as many as he could before the clock struck three pm?
........................
Was this some form of niceness??? It was freaking annoying.
Grabbing just the one pot, the fifth year walked over towards the place where the soil was kept and started filling the pot up with soil. Halfway. He specifically remembered that from the lesson. Bending down, Grayson sprinkled some more soil onto the top of the pile........
........... and then even more was sprinkled on......

He was quite jealous and he didn't have to break a sweat. But he smiled and complimented him all the same, "You did do it, good job.." he gave him a hair ruffle. "Oh your welcome buddy anytime. If you need any help doing assignments you know who to call.." he winked. His stomach rumbled and it was time for lunch. "Come on let's go to the great hall.." he motioned and took his jar where he would clean and feed them in his room.
Oh? He was getting pats on the back now. WIN! Hahahaha. "Yeah, I know." The Lions were darn awesome. Who else had a pet boulder in the common rooms? And all the flowery things too... and just, it was awesome. RAWR.
He was kinda surprised though that Kace was questioning his fairy catching technique. Zeke shrugged at first, no words coming to mind. He wasn't doing anything extraordinary. Like, he didn't know that spell Kace had used, that'd have been handy. "I just did what the Professor did... you know how he was saying if you go after them they fly away quickly? Just... you know, take your time, be casual." Not to mention his fairy was daft. "Mine admires itself too much, so that helps as well, it's self-distracting." Not that he was able to get it quickly mind you, it took some time, there was just less exertion involved. And LOOOKIT THATTTTTT... he was totes IN with the older students. Yep. The hair ruffling and all was a give away that he and Kace were now FRIENDS like, PROPER friends... cause that's what they did, right? "Heh, thanks."
And now he had a study buddy in general he could work with too. A VERY productive day indeed. "Awesome, I'll keep that in mind," and would DEFINITELY be keeping him to it. "I'll catch you later!"
...
As for the fairy. "You need a name... and... I might get you a mirror, you like yourself too much." Not to say he didn't like the fairy, he supppppppoooossseeedd that he did, and they... were in love with themselves and stuff, so, it'd like hearing that too, right? "You're pretty..." there, he'd said it.. and officially lost his manliness. But now it was HIS turn to eat, so back to the castle they'd go!

Now was the time to show those Bouncing Bulbs who's BOSS.
Rolling up the sleeves of his robes, Grayson first decided to channel as much casualness and calmness as he could muster. This was the hardest step and he knew it. Because as much as he thought he'd done a good job in class, those Bouncing Bulbs had a mind of their own and seemed to like doing whatever they pleased, which included bouncing away. It was annoying, to say the least.
With that done and a small collar bop later, and Grayson was heading right over towards the Bouncing Bulbs. His hands were by his side and he tried to pretend that he wasn't looking at the plants themselves. He was simply looking at things near the bulbs, just so that he could see whether they were gonna move or not. THAT would be his cue to stop.
Something weighed down in the back of his mind with every step he took. Maybe it was the anticipation of knowing that the things were meant to be wriggling or showing some signs of movement but......... they weren't?? What in the name of Merlin? Were they even ALIVE?! Oh man, Walton was gonna KI--
Wriggling was happening so the Slytherin stopped in his tracks. And he was standing at roughly the same distance as he had been doing in the class itself.

Did they think that the professor wasn't here? That he would trust the students not to tear down the place and flame it up.
Hahaha.
That was never going to happen.
Andrew was right here. Watching. Observing. Shaking his head and sometimes murmuring under his breath. It was a wonder how some students didn't get eaten up by the bulbs yet. Although, the young bulbs didn't eat anyone.
Still, some were doing a really good job. Well, fine more than some. And the good thing was that almost all the plants were potted now. The hooligans were actually helpful. Good to know.
Walking away from one of the cupboard that totally got messed up a tiny bit he slid his hands into his pockets and settled on a bench watching.

IT WAS TIME TO STRIKE!
Grayson POUNCED on the bulbs to try and get one to put into the pot over there. Except, the boy might have miscalculated since one of the bulbs bounced up and right through his fingers, much to the pleasure of its sisters and brothers. JEEZ. If they could talk or whatever, Grayson was sure that they would be laughing at him right now. Laughing at his failure to capture a single bulb.
THIS WAS SO FREAKING ANNOYING.
Grumbling, the Slytherin darted after it, pulling out his wand as he did so. Flipendo would work wonders, he was sure of it. It'd worked the last time and had actually proved to be MORE useful than using his own hands. He half wondered why that was and whether he'd come to a point where he could show these bad boys who's boss by using his own hands but he disregarded that thought. It wasn't the time, mkay?
"FLIPENDO!"
The bulb was knocked back and landed with a small SMACK on the table ear his pot. Rushing over there as quickly as he could, the boy picked up his bulb, which immediately started wriggling around half-heartedly. Was it because of the Knockback Jinx? Probably. At least it wasn't hurt, because then it'd be Whitty's head on the line and he didn't want that. So, ignoring the wriggling, the fifth year dropped the bulb into the pot that had been filled up with soil.
"AND STAY IN THERE!"
....................
Oh man, was that Walton walking around the greenhouse? Talk about embarrassing!
The Greenhouse, though not one of Justine’s usual haunts was pleasant enough, and considering how loud and noisy the common room was, she was in much need of a quiet space to think… And yeah, maybe the chance of running into a certain broad-shouldered hottie of a professor might have been on her mind too…
Oh look, there were actually kids in here doing the homework, Justine thought she might just sit idly by and watch them for a bit, yes, that would be amusing. Slipping through the rows of vegetation, she made her way to one of the benches, only to find Professor Walton seated nearby.
Ugh. Professors shouldn’t be allowed to be that good-looking. It wasn’t fair. Flipping back a lock of her brown hair, Justine quietly approached the Profesor. “Afternoon Professor,” The Ravenclaw said, smiling. Think of a question, think of a question. “I was hoping t run into you, I had a question about certain magical herbs?” Herbs, like she cared about herbs. PSH.

EASIEST step was THIS one since it only included burying the bulbs into the soil.
Except, this one was a feisty little bugger, wasn't it? It continued trying to wriggle around in there. "Oi! This is for your own good, you know," he hissed, picking up some soil and adding it into the pot. Why he was talking to a plant, he didn't know. They weren't like animals, where they could understand you and possibly defend you in times of need. Or attack people. Plants couldn't do anything unless they were the dangerous type. And you can bet your galleons that Grayson liked THOSE.
Some more soil was added into the pot. He noticed the way the plant stopped wriggling around soon enough. Had it succumbed? Given up? GOOD. This was a very satisfying feeling, wasn't it? Even more soil was added in, just for good measure, until the plant was half buried in the soil. Was that enough? It'd better be. And the bulb had better not move away. He had a grade depending on this.
Giving the bulb and the soil around it one last pat, the Slytherin turned to his bag and pulled out his notebook. A couple of pages were riffled past until he landed on the page he wanted: notes from the previous lesson. Was this the last step? Looked like it!

Andrew's eyes were on Mister Whitlock for a very good reason. The boy seemed to have a target on his back and that was dangerous. So don't the Professor was making sure no one decided to blow up the boy or something. Scarce and important plants were around.... And students of course. Ahem.
His attention turned on the girl who approached him though. Did she need help or something? She looked old enough to handle herself. Oh, she had a question. He nodded for her to go on and ask away.
"Of course," he said pleased that the question was actually related to the subject and not something else. He would have just walked away then. "Any specific type you're interested in ? Or are you interested in the magical ones in general?" He asked her as his eyes kept flickering to the sides making sure the others were doing ok.

Those eyes, that jawline. Justine wasn't one to easily fluster, but Professor Walton was much too handsome not to fawn over. And that accent, ughh. None of Justine's inner thoughts showed on her face, rather the girl looked politely interested.
Oh, yeah. She needed a reason for the herbs, right.... Well... She had been planning a prank on Jun, maybe there was something herb related she could use. "Well, I was wondering if there were certain herbs that effected speech? Something that could make a person's dialect change say to... that of a valley girl or something similar?" The smile turned just the smallest hint devious. Jun with that weird Norean accent of his speaking like a California Valley-girl would be hilarious.

Time to pack up and get himself out of there? Sounded like a good--
Oh. Hey. HEY!
Grayson, who had pulled off his gloves and was hastily shoving them in his bag, found his fingers brushing the edges of the camera. Pulling it out, he glanced down at it and then up and around the greenhouse in general. Could he...............? Fuller wouldn't mind seeing some plants, would he? He freaking well hoped not.
After adjusting the settings just a little, the fifth year held the camera up to his eyes and took a peek through it. Yeah, this would do PERFECTLY. And the bouncing bulbs would be great to take a picture of since they liked to move around so much. He bent down and angled things in the right way so that he got enough of the bulbs in the frame with soooooooome of the background bit too. Soil and pots and whatnot. It was all there.
And............... CLICK!
There. Done. Retrieving the photo that had come out, Grayson went on to shake it around, looking back at his pot plant as he did so. Was it still wriggling around? No? Good! "Alacer!" he called, tapping the centre of the photograph with his wand.

..... You know, he didn't actually have to pot two right? So what if he just so casually happened to return the second flower pot and call it a day? YEAH! Didn't need to help Professor Grumps more than he needed to. He didn't deserve it. He said Zander was a disgrace. So nope. Not gonna help him out.
And for some reason, this little sneaky though gave Zander a reason to smile. To grin, actually. A HUGE grin. Hehehe. Maybe Zander could've been a Slytherin! ....... Nah. That's a stretch. But right, anyways.
Since the flower pot was already half filled with soil, he'd have to take care of that too. So the Gryffindor just-so-casually walked over to the place where he got the soil to begin with and DUMPED all of the soil out of his flower pot and into the soil container. HEH! And then he went ahead and "Scourgified!" the pot because no one would have to know about his little act of defiance. He was being a bit passive aggressive, huh?
And with that done and out of the way, he didn't even bother cleaning up his work station, but instead went straight for his things. After slinging his bag over his shoulder he quickly made an exit before Professor Grumps could notice what had just happened. Hehehe.
Take that, Professor-If that's even your real name.
HEHEHHEHEHEHEH

Okay moving on..
This was perhaps the most simplistic of steps in the task and Layla wasn't entirely sure why she was completely over thinking it but here she was stood in front of her plant head tilted at a slight angle with a small smirk on her face. Bulby was all safe in its pot and all she needed to do was shove some more soil onto it and she was done.
With the first plant anyway.
Picking up the soil she gently shoved it into the pot so that it filled a little below the rim of the pot. She couldn't remember the exact measurements but she was sure that it didn't matter that much, her Ma's plants didn't usually want that much or that little. Oh who cared, why was she thinking so much into this?
She pulled away to stare at her plant with a shrug. That was one down, did she have time to do another because she couldn't really be bothered right now.

Carrying his wand, Herbology gloves, and notes, Gabriel made his way slowly to the greenhouses. This homework...while not being one of his favorites that had been posted to date, was still homework...and well, it was the learning experience of it all that forced Gabe's very Ravenclaw mind to participate.
Even if it was GROSS to be messing around in the dirt.
...or SOIL...to be technical.
Arriving promptly at 7 a.m....because punctuality was important to Gabriel Banner...he set his face. Bouncing bulbs. Now, where....were they...? It was best to just suck it up and get it over with, right? Dirt, soil, and all?
Spotting them......he stamped down his rising anxiety. THIS...was NOT the thing to get overly stressed about. It was GOING to be OKAY. JUST plants...Not.....a girl...or anything....
Practicing the spell! He could busy himself with that first!!

Dot wasn't keen on getting dirty, especially when she was still trying to come to terms with the fact that someone had broken into her closet and turned all her clothes red. It was very upsetting that her housemates disliked her so much... at least they could have made everything green, right?
But here she was, ready to... but bulby things into pots. As pro-gardener girls did, right? She hopped into the greenhouse and immediately spotted Gabe, who was such an awkward duck and that was prolly why she liked him. She made a beeline to his side and picked up a pot.
