Arithmancy/Muggle Studies Joint Lesson
 

Eden wasn't keen on Arithmancy. She didn't take the subject for a reason: it wasn't her forte. But Muggle Studies WAS...so...here she was, making an appearance, unsure of this class or how she would feel as the lesson unraveled.

Because like....numbers? Numbers were hard. Eden didn't like feeling stupid. Not at all.

The desks were practically on top of one another, and Eden had to squeeze into one. "Good day--" she nodded at Moxley and Tanner. Well, at least she new Tanner from Ravenclaw stuff. Nice lady, she was.

Hmph.

Another joint lesson and another with these two subjects together!

It was rather sunny so that meant Adi's glasses were in place for this extra bright light. He bounded into the classroom, missing the cold but stopped in his tracks, his eyes widening at the sight of the cobwebs. GOSH! The things were taking over EVERYWHERE! The boy had no desire to have a repeat of what had happened to him at the Hufflepuff Barrels so he merely trudged closer to his Professors to greet them while keeping his eyes open for the webs lest he walked into some.

"Hello, Professors! Need help getting rid of the webs?" He was an expert at this, you see, having used his spell work to clean the sticky things away a few times before. Hehe.
....................

Now for a seat! Adi noted the tight knit setting of the class as well as the space at the back. He was quite curious about said space but he waved to Zeke and Eden before taking a seat in the second row. All they needed now were more students.

Another combination class. Janelle was always curious to see how the professors could mix information from their different classes together and make it work. Entering the room, She briefly scanned the scene. Janelle's first order of business was the greetings. "Hello Professor Tanner, Professor Moxley."

There were only a few students present so far, so Janelle gave them a general greeting. "Hello everyone." Adi got a special wave, cause......you know.......he was Adi. It seemed that the seating arrangement was a little tight......definitely not for the claustrophobic. Janelle found a seat that seemed kinda roomy and sat down. It looked like it would be a while before class started so she busied herself organizing her things.

Toby studied both Arithmancy and Muggle Studies, so a joint lesson would be pretty convenient in a way, squishing it all into one time slot. But, at the same time, joint lessons could be difficult on the brain. You had to absorb more information sometimes, and for two different subjects. When you had problems concentrating and initially processing information, that could make things challenging. Luckily, Toby was usually up for a challenge. As long as he was prepared for likely feeling exhausted by the time the lesson was over.

He headed straight for his seat by the window now, glad nobody had taken it yet, sat down, and set up his things. "Morning Professor Tanner, Professor Moxley," Toby said, and was about to say something else when he caught sight of the cobwebs.

:mellow:

Everywhere. They were literally everywhere, all over the school. And cobwebs meant SPIDERS and Toby was LOWKEY TERRIFIED OF SPIDERS, OKAY? He deadpanned at the nearest collection of cobwebs and subconsciously rubbed his itchy ankle on the chair leg, trying not to think about the possibility of arachnids chilling out in this room. Toby gave an involuntary shiver, which turned into shifting about in his seat, then he bounced his knees and tapped his quill. Fidgeting, the usual. Of course.

How exactly was Arithmancy and Muggle Studies supposed to go together? Muggle Studies was fun and Aritmancy made her head and heart hurt. Too much math and stuff. She really needed a Ravvie best friend. They were good at everything, yes?

AJ made her way into the classroom and the first thing she noticed was the cobwebs. There sure were a lot of them. "Morning, professors." Notice how she didn't put good before that morning? She had a reason, she did. Whether it was going to be good or not would still up for debate.

"Hey, you..." she said as she made her way over to the boyfriend. Everybody else got head nods. It was morning, and she already had spoken more than usual for this time of day.

Yoongi was a bit puzzled whether or not he should go to this class or not. He did not take both Arithmancy and muggle studies but only the last. Still, what if he was to be expected for this class? He could not afford any slacking in his OWL year.

As he entered the classroom he immediately took note of how crammed it was. Two class at once wasn’t that normal. He vagualy wondered what they were going to learn when he noticed the webs. Now, this Gryffindor is not afraid of spiders however he did make a noise of disgust at it. "....hello, should i hel--"

He was about to offer help but Adi beat him to it and he let him. "nevermind"The guy was a prefect anyways, he could deal with some webs. He sat down at a random seat and took out his chapstick for use.

Arithmancy and Muggle Studies in one lesson. This was destined to be a great lesson. Even though Cinna wasn't taking Arithmancy this term she was here for the muggle studies portion of the lesson. She would just play along with Tanner in her Arithmancy lesson too. Brush up on her Arithmancy skills, if she had any.

Making her way to the Arithmancy classroom, it kinda felt weird going back into the classroom after not taking the class this term. She walked into the classroom with a big grin on her face.

Cobwebs?

The sixth year tilted her head. Interesting. Anyway she headed on passed the two professors. "Hello, professor Tanner, Moxley." Still grinning she went on to find herself a seat. Merlin. This was a tight squeeze. Good thing there wasn't a lot of students here yet. It was relatively easy to find a seat. And easy to get too right now too. Settling down in a seat she waited for class to start.

All replies
 

Ah, their first student! "Good morning, Mister Rogers! Any seat is fine." She didn't know if Moxley did assigned seating, but she wasn't going to attempt it with a combined student population.

Next in.. a Ravenclaw! Excellent. They had some ground to make up in the House Cup standings. "Good morning, Miss McGee! It is a pleasant surprise to see you here this morning." The girl didn't take Arithmancy, so this might be her first time in the room.

Sunglasses from Rehman? "Hello, hello!" she greeted the young man. "Why yes, that would be lovely! Might I suggest taking the sunglasses off so you can see them better? And.. go ahead and leave them off for the lesson, if you would." She was fairly certain those were not part of the dress code at Hogwarts.

"Ah, Miss Guidry, hello. Welcome to class." She gave the eagle a warm smile. "Any open seat would be fine."

Close on her heels was one of her favorite students. Not in the sense that she liked him more than others, she wasn't the type that did that; but she certainly had more of a relationship with the young man than with most other students. "And a good morning yourself, Tobias." He looked better than when they had talked in the courtyard before Christmas, so that was a good sign.

Good, another Gryffindor. That would balance things out a bit in a badger- and eagle-heavy classroom. "Welcome to class, Miss Valentine. Take any seat that is open!"

Then a new student walked in that she had not met before. Obviously he took Muggle Studies and not Arithmancy. She gave the boy a polite, "Good morning," and let him speak. Perhaps he was about to offer assistance of some sort? "What was that, young man?"

Tiara chuckled as Sophie Brown made her entrance. "I can't say I agree with you, Miss Brown," she said, thinking of the dirty state of the room, "but I appreciate the sentiment." So they had Tobias and Sophie; they were just missing-

And that completed the trio. "Hi yourself," she greeted back. "Yes, I see you noticed. I did request two elves to clean up the room last night.." She was assuming they had simply forgotten for some reason, but that seemed very unlike the elves; however, not cleaning also sounded unlike them. "So I do not know what to tell you about that," she finished lamely. "But I do know where to send you," she said, pointing across the room at the other two thirds of the Arithmancy Dream Team.

"Ah, Mister Atreyu. I wondered when we would see you arrive." He was almost a sure bet when it came to Arithmancy attendance. "No assigned seating, wherever you want."

Tiara scanned the room. Where are the Slytherins? she wondered. The classroom was closer for them than for half of the school, after all. Because of her ponderings, she missed a student entering. "Hello, Miss Bayless," she said to the girl's back. She was not taking the NEWT level, but Tiara never held that against students.

Next in was a Hufflepuff. "Miss Carrington, so nice to see you today." It looked like the seats were starting to fill up, but there were plenty enough for Lux to easily find one at this point. "Any seat, dear."

Whitlock! Thank Merlin, there would be someone from every house represented after all. "Morning, Mister Whitlock! Thank you for coming. I hope others from your house decide their education is worthwhile as well." She may have to speak with Cecelia about her house.

Good good, another eagle. "Good morning, Miss Wright. Anywhere that's open," she said indicating a seat. After a few moments, Tiara noticed Penelope had gotten up again. "Is something the matter, Miss Wright?" she asked, a look of genuine concern on her face.

Nora was always good for a smile. "Hiiiii yourself, Miss Kittredge!" And, just for good measure, Tiara wiggled her fingers right back at the Hufflepuff.

Angel had a funny feeling this lesson was either going to be great or it was going to be a shipwreck of a lesson, she hoped it would be first. "Hello Professors, How are you both this glor...." Angel was confused was she late? on time? in the wrong lesson? Angel just looked at her feet, there was nothing to see here right!

Yoongi shrugged his shoulders “Nothing Professor, I was just about to offer to help with getting rid of the webs but seeing as Adi already got here first I figured it was in good hands” he smiled. “So I let him take the credit” another shrug. Professor Moxley’s voice made him look in her direction and he quickened his pace in getting his book. One of his books, seeing as he did not have an Arithmancy book. Where they going to pair up later? Muggle studies student together with Arithmancy student?

WOOT! Zhenya loved a joint class! She made her way down to the arithmancy classroom where they would all be packing in for arithmancy and muggle studies. Zhenya took both of those classes, so of course she was going to attend, and love it.

She walked into the oddly spaced classroom. Not a great use of space, she thought, but it must be for a reason, and Zhenya was sure all would be revealed soon enough. "Hello Professor Tanner, hello Professor Moxley," Zhenya greeted both professors with a big smile, before squeezing into a desk.

Cobwebs. Blah. She was sick of seeing them everywhere.

"Hello, professors," Heather greeted as she entered the classroom and took a seat. Fully prepared for this lesson she was, with pencils and everything. Hey, she was pretty sure this was going to be about muggle math. A subject she was absolutely horrible at, thank you very much. Hence, the pencils. Easily erasable.
