"Yes, sir." said Ivy. She began to tidy the room and place the geckos into their cages and place them back in the proper place as per the Professors instructions.

Xavier tries the spell one last time. "Transmorgify!" Once again, the goblet remained stationary. He had at least done it once. The gecko quickly climbed up his arm and stood on the back of his neck. He grabs it and puts it back in it's cage whispereing, "You were great little guy."

McAiken heard Lee's voice and turned toward him. "Meet me in my office and we'll discuss it." McAiken says.

Lee left the professor to think about his questiona and walked around collecting the caged Gecko's. He placed them neatly onto the counter where the professor pointed and Lee walked back over to him getting a good answer from what ghe expected he niodded "okay" and walked back to his desk

Before Lee could move away from him again McAiken added, "I mean of course after class."

Astoria transfigured the goblet back into a gecko and placed it back into the cage. "You were awesome, little gecko!" She grinned and sat back in her chair.

"yes i know" Lee smiled and laughed a bit. Lee wouldn't miss any of this class for the world, after all it was one of few that actually had the proper hogwarts professor appointed to it.

Roma turned her goblet back into a gecko and put it in its cage. 'That was a great lesson,' she thought to herself.

Tao smiled and concentrated hard. She yelled, "Transmorgify!" one more time but alast, nothing happened. She sighed and handed in her gecko. "I'll definitely practice that one along with the levitation spell..." she said to herself under her breath.

"We're ready to move on to our second transfiguration of the lesson," McAiken says as he walks up to the front of the room. He removes his wand and points at the empty space beside of his demostation table. A stack of rocks appear, they are the size of a muggle brick. "Each of you need to come take a rock."

Amie comes up and takes a rock. She was quite satisfied that she had turned her gecko into a goblet twice.

McAiken place one of the brick sized rocks on his table and waits for the student to come forward the return to their seats. The students do quickly and in an orderly fashion. McAiken is please the student are having a good lesson. He had heard some of the other lessons had been difficult to say the least.

Astoria walked up to the Professor's desk and took a rock off of it. She walked back to her desk pleased with herself because she managed to transfigure the gecko into a goblet.

Lee smiles sure thing professor. Lee walks to the front of the classroom and picks up a really sturdy rock. He plays about by chucking it up and down and catching it inhis hands, he waits for further instructions.

Naz walks to the desk and takes a rock off of it. She smiles and thinks of what we are about to do next.

"Our second transfiguration is actually easier than the one you just completed, but in some ways it is a more important lesson to learn. Today we will transfiguring these rocks into pitcher but in time and with practice you will learn you can transfigure objects to help you in many ways. Example in a wizard's duel or at work. You will in time learn every day objects can become shields if the need is great." McAiken says hoping he is keeping their interest. He know lectures are hated things but some instruction time is needed in every lesson. He tried to keep it short so the students actually get to use their ability to perform magic.

This lesson will end tomorrow. It's dinner time then Survivor for me. I might be back on later but I am not for sure.

Lee realised instructions werent coming just yet so took out a quill and took noted on what the professor was saying, it seemd wise enough for Lee to pay attention and copy.

OOC - enjoy your meal

Lorelei takes a rock from the professor's desk, and sets it on her table. She sits there, just staring at the rock, as she waits for instructions.

McAiken did get Nadia's attention from some seconds, as he went about the shield. Indeed, she knew of that. She mentally pffed - object, pet, friends... seemed whatever could be used as shield, didn't it?

Nadia raised her eyes to the desk and walked to take a rock herself, then did a double-take and used her plain-hat to put a group of stones, and walked around the class giving them out to the various students around who looked like didn't want to get off the comfortable chairs. Not that Nadia could blame them. But there was a certain disatisfaction she felt when, a.) she was standing motionless for too long, hence she had to move at every given oportunity, and b.) she class was delayed in every silly way.

So she helped them to the rocks, in only to move faster, though that, in her motions, she didn't show.

Roma took notes on what the proffessor had just said and took one of the rocks. Having turned the gecko into a goblet successfully many times, she was very confident that she could do it again.

Llew dove to the ground and caught his gecko/goblet. He looked up at Becca and smirked, "Thanks, but, I've got things under control." He raised his gecko in the air by the tail.
After finally changing his gecko back to a gecko he put it back in the cage and brought it up to the front of the classroom, taking a rock while he was there.

Toria whispers "transmorgify", seeing as it didn't have any effect, she said it a bit louder, know that someone might hear her, she quickly hushed herself and stared queerly at her goblet walking up and down the length of the table...

Ivy took a rock and set it on the desk in front of her eager to try her hand at transfiguring another object. She sat and folded her hands to await his instructions. She began to suck on the choco-feather end of her quill while she waited. 'I wish other professors would do such nice things for us,' Ivy thought as she enjoyed the tasty treat.

Harmony takes out a quill and parchment and starts taking notes...

Laurasia took one of the rocks & returned to her seat. She had been quietly trying to get her gecko to turn into a water goblet, but had only managed a cup with a tail.

She looked around the room at the other students, who seemed to be truly enjoying this class as she was. It was nice to finally find a place within the school where she wasn't confused or stressed about all of the apparent upheaval. "I suppose being new is never easy, even when things are going smoothly," she thought to herself.

She returned her attention back to Professor McAiken & the lesson at hand. "Hopefully I have better luck with the rock," she thought with a small sigh.
