Class I : Years 2 & 3

[Jackie Lupin]

Class I : Spells that are Complete Rubbish
& Animal Transfigurations

<sub>Thus far, there was no teacher for Lupin's younger students that had signed up for class. Knowing that she couldn't leave them unattended, she decided to start off a quick lesson for them. Unlocking the door to the classroom, Jackie pulls it open for students, and then moves towards the front of the room; which she transfigured to look more like a gathering room rather than an actual classroom.

She didn't expect students to learn if they weren't even comfortable to do so. Besides, desks and chairs weren't necessary to create spells. Just a level of ease and comfort and understanding. Smiling, Lupin hums a slight tune to herself. This lesson in particular she found to be one of much amusement and hands on. Transfiguring animals, she knew proved to be a fun experience. Although, the discussion of certain rubbish spells also appealed to her nature. Smiling, she sits in one the chairs and waits for the students to arrive.</sub>

On her way to Transfiguration. Ranka was looking forward to this class - a lot. The thought of being able to transform something into something else fascinated her quiet a bit. And considering she was lacking transfiguration last term only made her want to attend the class even more this term.

Being the first in class, Ranka blinked curiously as she entered. It didn't look anything like a classroom. It looked more like a student lounge then anything. Ranka arched her eyebrow, laking a seat on the rather red sofas, her bottom sinking into the cushions. In a way yes, she did like this set up of the classroom - but then again Ranka had a feeling she will be very easily distracted. A bit of ADD this one has. Grinning, she leaned back and placed her book bag on the ground.

Being only the professor and Ranka, she felt the need to say something, just so it wasn't so awkward. "Erm. Ello Professor" she said, her Russian accent thick as it always was. she gave a small smile before looking to toe door, waiting for someone else to enter.

Taylor walked into the Charms classroom, her long hair tied back in a loose braid. Her blue eyes shined as she realized that she wasn't late, and sat down quickly.Taylor shot a warm smile to the Professor at the front of the room as she did so, and unpacked her bag, placing a book, parchment and quill on the table top. Her wand came next, and as she did this, Taylor read over the incantation name written on the board. The Slytherin frowned, resting her head upon the desk.

[Jackie Lupin]

<sub>Waiting in her seat, Jackie looked up and smiled when two girls entered, a Ravenclaw and a Slytherin. Have to give them house points for being early. Well done, ladies. Lupin lifts tiny, frail hands to wave to the two of them. "Good morning, girls. Excited for your first lesson? Oh, and ... books aren't necessary, we won't be using books, notes, or anything of that sort in classes with me. Just a wand. You can put all your belongings away now, if you'd like, before others arrive."

Removing her cloak, Lupin drapes over the back of the sofa, and looks to the other two once more. "Names, please?" She asks politely, smile never wavering.

[shayna]

Well this was different. The Transfiguration classroom looked more like a gathering room than a classroom, but Shayna wasn't going to complain. Looking around she saw that she didn't know anyone there, but that wasn't news to her since she hardly ever left the common room or the library so how would she know anyone? It was quite odd though because it was her second term here and she still had only met one person and that person had disappeared.

Sighing to herself she took a seat on one of the comfy chairs and waited for the class to start.

[Ashley Tapping]

Ashley walked down the hallway leading to her first Transfigureation class of this term. She was a Little bit nervous but not much. Ash pushed open the door and walked in looking around at everybody else. She didn't recognize any of the people. The only person she recognized was the professor. She saw her in the hallway sometimes but never spoke to her.

Ashley looked around at some of the desks and chairs she walked over to one of them and sat down waiting for more students to show up.

[batgirl]

Looking as another student entered, Ranka watched come and take a seat. She wondered if she thought that this little set up was a strange as she did. No matte,r she was sure that it was for a good reason. The professor didn't look like an idiot, but looks aren't everything. Leaning back a bit on her seat, Ranka adjusted herself so she was sitting Indian style, her personal favorite sitting position. When the professor started to talk again, Ranka arched her eyebrow, and then grinned. this class was going to be a load of fun, she could tell already. No books? No notes? That had to be a sign of a good thing.

When addressed, Ranka looked blankly back at the Professor for a second. She looked to the girl who just came in quickly, seeing if she would answer first, but she didn't. She turned the attention of her bright brown orbs back to the professor. "Ranka Molohov" she told her with a small grin. Seeing more students enter Ranka waited for more to come...or for the class to begin.

Transfiguration. Aaliyah's attitude toward the subject was fairly neutral. That was most likely because she never really saw much of this class. Well, it seemed like things were going to be interesting today. Spells that are Complete Rubbish sounded kind of fun. And transfiguring an animal would be really cool. Aaliyah did not know the point of these things but they still sounded cool.

She poked her head into the classroom first to see if she recognized anyone. There were a bunch of second years and one third year that she had seen here or there. But none of Liyah's closer friends had arrived yet. She shrugged and came in anyway. Sitting near one of the girls [Ranka] she smiled. "Hi," she said. "I'm Liyah."

[Pierce James]

Hn. Class. Not fun. His last transfiguration class was uneventful, and now his he wasn't able to be in the same class as Missus Pebbles. Fantastic. Well, at least he could be ignored throughout the class and his classmates could do all the pointless question-answering for him. On top of that, he was tired as hell. He'd woken up probably ten or so times throughout the night, and his irritatingly hyper kitten didn't help the situation wither her very sharp claws.

He walked sluggishly into the class, shrugging the strap of his bag further onto his shoulder. He stopped in the doorway, looking curiously at the decorations. It looked as if someone had replaced the classroom with a section from the Quality Quarters. Not that that was a bad thing, it was just odd. A few of his peers were already in the room getting situated, and he was rather confused when he heard the professor say no books or notes were needed. Well, he had his wand in his pocket, so he supposed it didn't matter.

Taking a seat on one of the puff-things, he dropped his bag beside him, feeling rather awkward sitting on the thing. At least it was comfortable, though. It put him in a bit of a better mood that he didn't have to sit in those hard uncomfortable desks. He really wanted the class to begin so they could start on their spells, actually learn something productive, he probably wouldn't have much fun with it though; he didn't know anybody in the room. Plus, he just wanted classes to be over as soon as they could be. He wanted to get back to his common room, perhaps even see Aaryn before the day was over.

Transfiguration. Hannah wasn't really sure if she liked it but she was going to try and enjoy it. She was never really good at w and work so of course she was a little nervous. Turning the corner Hannah readjusted the bag on her back has she walked to class. Walking in she noticed that this class wasn't going to be like the others. There was no desk in this place, guess she wasn't going to need to take notes.

Looking around she noticed the others and only one that she actually knew by name. Walking over to Ashley she took a seat next to her. "Hey." she smiled at her. Taking the bag off her back she sat it down next to her feet and looked around has she waited for class to begin.

Ally woke up very tired. She looked around. No 2nd Year girls were there. She quickly jumped up and hollered "TRANSFIGURATION!!" She ran over to her dresser and got out her clothes. Putting on a pink swetaer with the words TRUE GRYFFIE on it and some jeans she slipped on her sperry's and raced down to the Transfiguration Classroom. Getting there she peaked her head in. Seeing class had not started she walked in.

She took a seat and sighed. Could be worse she thought. She looked at the board and smiled. Professor Lupin had always ben funny. She smiled at the Professor. "Hello Professor. Have a good summer? Congrats on being promoted!" Ally reached in her purse that her mum placed a pernament engorgio charm on the inside. She pulled out her Transfiguration text books. Smiling she waited for class to begin.

[aiden]

Aiden's first class. He was really excited. He got out of bed and got dressed. He grabbed his MCR messenger bag and left the Gryffindor common room. He made the journey then to Transfiguration. He walked into the class and noticed there were people in there already. He looked around the room. It was really nice. He walked over to one of the seats and sat down. He also put his bag on the floor. This is going to be an instersting class....

[cremefilled]

Sev slowly walked into the Transfiguration Classroom and glanced at the chalkboard. "Spells that are complete rubbish?" he smirked. "That sounds interesting." He shook his head and took a seat on one of the comfortable chairs. Well, this makes this class a little different, he thought as he glanced around at everyone around him. He did not see Allison or Troy or any of his close friends. In fact, Sev did not recognize a single person in this room, aside from the professor of course.

Well, that's because you're socially awkward, said a voice in his head. He shook it and sighed. Sure, he is a pretty shy guy but he was not one to give up the opportunity to meet new people in class. He had met Faye in class...

Looking at the girls next to him whose name were Ashley and Hannah (though he did not know that), he gave them a small smile. "Hi, I'm Sev," he said quietly to them, though he was not sure if they would actually pay attention to him.

[robotboy]

Ew. Classes. Not one of his most favourite things to go do. But, he did want to pass this year, so it was probably a good idea to actually attend classes and learn. He shuddered at the thought. Walking into the Transfiguration classroom, he was surprised to see it not looking like much of a classroom at all. How odd. But at least it looked more comfy. Sitting on the couch, he left his messenger bag at his feet, taking out a notebook and a pen to write any notes on. Looking around, he sighed a bit, wishing there was someone here he knew.

[Jackie Lupin]

<sub>More students filed in and Jackie figured now was a better time than any to start the lesson. "Okay!" Jumping up on a table in the center of the circle to make herself known, she smiles brightly and eyes all of the tired looking students with knowing eyes. "Welcome to Transfiguration second and third years. You're going to have to wake up because while I gave you all the comfy seats, we'll be doing lots of hands on works. Meaning those things - there ..." she points to Moretti, a boy with his notebook and parchment out in front of him and shakes her finger almost in disappointment.

"We're going to learn, but notes are not for this class. At least not while I'm teaching it. Get your wands out, and stand up on the sofas if it makes you feel powerful or ... something." Laughing at her own joke, because face it kids, Lupin was the cheesiest professor you'll ever meet, she puts her hands on her hips and grins. "I'm Professor Lupin and you'll either hate me or love me. I talk a lot, I make everyone get down and dirty ... we may have the occasional pillow fight, and if you're late, don't let me see you just sitting there, join in and I won't dock. However! If I see any books in my classroom, I will be appalled. You're here to learn. Study on your own time, is that clear?"

Clearing her throat some, she hops off the table and makes her way over to Ranka, the Ravenclaw from earlier. "You look like a good test subject. You'll be my helper for the moment, then. Today, ... well let's face it. Some teachers just teach you loads of rubbish, don't they? Things you'll never need to know? Well that won't happen here. Either it's useful or I like it. For example, I was thirsty with my first years ... we turned mirrors into lemonade. You're not first years and I'm not thirsty today. So!"

Gesturing Ranka over, Lupin points with a certain purpose to the pillows in the room. "Turning everyday objects into animals, such as owls, dogs ... messenger type creatures can prove to be interesting. But I rather like interesting creatures so ... Pennatus Pullus. Objects into chickens! A meal or to serve as amusement. Either way, that's our lesson for today, so wands out, everyone!"

[aiden]

Class had started, yes! Aiden was really excited now. He pulled his wand out of his robes and got ready. He was so ready to learn. He chuckled quietly. He knew he was going to like this class a lot.

[Brayden Christiansen]

Great, first Charms lesson of the year and the third years have to be paired up with the second years. Oh well, Brayden said as he walked into the classroom. He got in, just as the Professor began to start out the lesson. It seemed like this year would be a great year, she seemed really funny. Hopefully, the T.A. was something like this, incase they ever had him, or her.

Brayden sat down on the comfy couch as the Proressor beckoned a Ravenclaw over to her. Hmm, what was going to happen now?

[`friday augustine ross]

Isabella, a.k.a. Bella, looked around the classroom. Was she late to class? Bella hopes not. She didn't want to be late. And if she is, she didn't mean to. Hopefully the teacher would understand that. But there are no excuses were there? Bella was not sure.

You Huffie sat down on one of the chairs with an apologetic look on her face. She didn't want to say anything because she knew that it would do no good.

[Ashley Tapping]

Hearing the Profssors order. The young Gryffindor put away her supplies back into her back. She grabbed out her wand and stood up onto the sofa's. She watched The Professor call a Ravenclaw over to her and waited to see what was going to happen next.

[kerajonson]

Kera entered the Transfiguration classroom, and soon realized she was late. The Professor seemed to have just finished speaking, as well as started the class. Looking around for an open seat, Kera noticed that the room looked like a gathering room. Walking over to an empty seat near the middle of the room, Kera sat down and set her purple and black messenger bag by her feet. Looking around at the other students had told her that they wouldn't be needing their books or notes in this class.
