| Term 7: Sept- Dec 2004 Term Seven: The Draught of Ephemera (Sept. 2053 - June 2054) |

10-04-2004, 02:35 PM
| | The Greenhouses (Bored? Loads to do here!) Professor Phoenix stood in the greenhouses with a frown on her face. The tip of her right index was pressed against her mouth, and she appeared to be in deep thought. After a while, she shifted her position a little, the frown increasing as her large Devil's Snare in the corner made a hissing noise. Then she dropped her hand and sighed. The summer holidays had not done the plants well. Although they had been looked after, many of them were simply dangerous and had to be handled with immense care. Professor Phoenix passed up and down the rows, testing how damp the soil in each pot was and adding water nearly everywhere. However, some students had asked her if they could do some extra work in the greenhouses last term, and she was only to glad to give them the opportunity. If they wanted, she had many things that needed to be done while she busied herself cutting back the Devil's Snare, and maybe even going into the caves to check on the Fireseed Plants, although they usually didn't need much attention. After a while, Professor Phoenix stepped out of the conservatory for the most dangerous plants, securely locking the door behind herself. She was about to enter the first greenhouse when she transfigured a leaf on the ground into a sheet of parchment, pulled out a pencil from her apron and scribbled a note on it. Quote: Students interested in extra credit work: Please address yourselves to Professor Phoenix in the greenhouses. She signed it and stuck it to the door with a charm before disappearing inside to continue her rounds. |

"Bye for now! I'm sure I'll see you guys soon!" Annabel turns, and exits the room feeling good about how much she was able to help.

| "Thank you very much Annabel. Anybody who wants can help," Professor Phoenix said with a smile. "I'll notify you about the house points," she added. "You are doing good jobs, thank you very much. "Hmm," she then said, standing in front of a heap of leaves. "This here is a Dransul, and a cheeky one at that. I'm sure it could find its own food, but if someone wants to, you can feed him: Usually, he'll have a small mouse."

Reign looks around and sees that since she started sweeping everyone else started sweeping, so she decides to let them do it while she goes to find a small mouse for the Dransul. Excitedly she runs out of the greenhouse to find some.
Reign returns shortly later with a small cage full of mice that she got from the gameskeeper, and starts to feed the Dransul, being careful to make sure they dont mistake her hand for a mouse. She watches as the Dransul gobble up the mice. She is unsure if she should be fanscinated by this or sickened.

"Ew, GROSS!" Shannon yells as she walks up behind Reign. She has just come in to see if there is anything she can do, and this is the first thing she sees?? She hopes she gets a less disgusting task to do as she asks, "Professor...is there any...anything I can do to help?"

Nadia did already too much watering and thuoght about helping Reign - but! Looking at the Dransul edgy... "I feel bad for the mouse. Could we use already dead mice or does it has to be fresh? I'd prefer not to see give the poor creature suffer, you see."
*blinks* "What about I ask Mr Shrine? He lives near the forest and has to take care of them daily, having to take care of the cabbages and pumpkins in his garden. He probably has some dead mice! The same used to feed Buckbeak when Hagrid was the GameKeeper."
*brushes herself and starts away*
"I'll go ask, professor, excuse me. Be back in a minute!"

Reign looks at Nadia. "If its okay with the Professor, then I'm all for it, but I just think that if this Dransul was in its natural habitat it would be eating live food anyway, its the circle of life as cruel and grim as it may be."
Reign looks lovingly at the Dransul. "Its quite remarkable actually." |

"Oh! No problem professor! Anything to help, I don't mind at all..  " Annabel said with a twinkle in her eye. She really liked being in here with all the beautiful and strange plants.
"By the way Professor, is there anything else I can do?" She asks looking around.

| -Laura entered the greenhouse and looked around at all the busy people. She hurried and to give her assistance to Professor Phoenix and the rest of her classmates- Is there anything new that needs to be done? Everything so far looks like its been well taken care of. -Laura said as she admired the work of the others. She hoped there was something left for her to do here.- |

while all of the other students are busy feeding the Dransul, Jennifer keeps mopping the floors, hopping no one will make her watch the poor little mice lose their lives

| "Thank you all for your help," Professor Phoenix said, putting away a watering can. "It is now nearly dinner time, so I think it's enough for now. If you want to help again, I will be opening the greenhouses next Saturday, 16th of October. Thank you."

| Professor Phoenix stepped down to the greenhouses in the early afternoon. She scribbled a list of tasks to do on the blackboard before going to work herself with a smile. Quote: - Rainbow Roses to prune - Buttercup Bushes to water - Dransuls to feed (mice on topmost shelf in front) - Desks to scrub

Francis walks in and with a smile, she starts to feeding the dransuls. She grabs some of the mice in the top shelf, and starts giving them to the dransuls. After she does so for 20 minutes, she starts scrubbing some of the desks. After about 30 minutes of doing so, she asks the Professor. "Excuse me.. How do we prune the rainbow roses?"

Hogwarts RPG Name: Maximus O. Vindictus III First Year | No Touchy! ♥ demented_teacher Kay walks in and reads the task list that Professor Phoebe had written on the blackboard. "Well, I guess that I will start with scrubbing the desks," she says in a soft voice as she gathers some of the cleaning supplies and then walks over to the desks. Kay rolls up the sleeves of her robes and begins to scrub one of the grubbiest desks.

Catherine walks in and looks at the jobs written on the blackboard. She then notices Kay scrubbing a filthy, dirty desk and walks over to help her. "Hi"

Hogwarts RPG Name: Maximus O. Vindictus III First Year | No Touchy! ♥ demented_teacher Kay looks up at Catherine. "Hello! Grab some of the cleaning supplies and choose a desk," she says cheerfully. Kay looks at the desktop, satisfied that she had scrubbed the filth off it and could now see her reflection. She then begins to clean the legs of the desk and underneath it, knowing that a good scrubbing down of a desk involved more than the desktop.
