It was a cool pre-lunch morning of the first of February when you make your way to the first floor for another Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson. Anyone who knew Hirsch's style might know what not to expect: no chairs, no desks and nothing that looked like it belonged to a normal classroom.

However, something you might not have expected is how much the classroom looks less like a classroom and more like an extension of the Hospital Wing. The room is brightly lit, with the light from outside illuminating the four hospital beds in the very centre of the room. With just one look at these beds, it's clear that there's something laying there but what exactly it is is unclear, especially with the black cloth that's conveniently covering them up.

Curious? You might be.

Looking towards the front of the room, you'll notice a desk and, leaning against it, the familiar figure of Professor Hirsch. Cool, calm and collected, the man has his arms crossed against his chest and his legs crossed at the ankles and an expression that says that this was a very normal setup of the room. On the desk is a box of rubber gloves, with the following note on the board directly behind it:

Quote:

Please pick up a pair of rubber gloves on your way to your seat

So come in, take a pair of gloves and make yourselves comfortable on the mat around the beds. Class is about to start.
