She was cool. Totally was.

"Hello, Professor Culloden." She had stuff for him and questions but those would have to wait for a later time. "How do you do?" Look at her being all formal and...social. Nice good steps. Yes.

And...

Beverly!

He looked fresher for a moment while he grinned at him back, and watched her be all excited. He was pretty excited to see her there, back and in his class - right in the front. Good. He didn't intend to leave his desk much for this lesson, so he could observe her progress better.

"I'm doing fine, thank you." He wasn't going to admit he was tired in front of a student he didn't know. "And you?"

"Adi, my man," he greeted the boy with a grin and waved at him. But then he remembered his conversation with Sophie, and his enthusiasm was suddenly gone. He looked away. He knew he was being very unfair, but...

Yeah.

Next student, please.

Hmm.

"Benny!" he greeted the boy enthusiastically and with a grin. Cosgrach was glad his name wasn't around in the prank he and Adi had played on him, because which professor pranked his students? And look, Benny and Adi were still friends! Everyone was happy!

Hehehe.

"Hey there, girl." This one... oooooooh! Victoria disliked this one, no? Cindrella or something was her name, caused some trouble to Bart. The brown eyes followed her, and was narrowed slightly when she held a seat for someone.

Bart?

He had to keep a close eye on these two. They wouldn't let Victoria down again.

A student knowing what 'cleanliness' meant.

PERFECT!

So she got a wide smile from Cosgrach and his eager eyes followed her to her seat. "Hello, student," he called back, hoping to learn her name. He wanted to know her name. She was going to be a star.

Hopefully.

And another - wow, very enthusiastic - little one!

"Hello, Mister," he greeted the boy with a curious look on his face, but he was also very friendly. Didn't want to scare the little ones and make them spoil all the potion now, did we? This one knew what to do either, unlike some older and experienced students. Well, there was hope for the next generation yet.

...

......

Okay okay she was clean and all, but wasn't she FORGETTING something?

.........

"HELLO there." THERE. He wasn't sitting there out of pleasure, y'know?

Rude.

Another favourite student there.

"Miss Prefect." Hehehe. "It's good to see you." And how she greeted the whole class?

Alas, Alexa wasn't here to see how to be a perfect prefect.

"Hello!" The girl whose name he'd forgotten (oops!) but not her fault. She made a mistake last year, and he conveniently remembered.

Hopefully, not in this lesson?

Marigold, another prefect bound to shine, he hoped. He grinned at her. "Still alive." It was a joke, see? He was exaggerating. He didn't look that terrible...

...did he!?

Students. They would impress better him if they greeted him.

Quote:

At least Cosgrach wasn't the only tired one.

He nodded and waved back. He was a new face. Wonder if he was a nice student?

"AJ!" She was THAT one, right? Cosgrach dearly hoped so. Anyway, from now on, she WAS. He was that type of person that never were 'wrong', and anyway, she sat somewhere quickly -

- and ran a hand through Adi's hair -

Having read and reread all Aparecium articles, he knew what that meant. "I won't have that in my class." Go kiss in a tree, just not here.

Were they even legally old enough to hold hands?

So Sophie hadn't told Toby anything.

Perfect.

Cosgrach grinned at the boy and said "Hello Toby," back. If the classroom hadn't been so crowded, he would have embarrassed the boy by joking about Sophie, but not now. Instead, he politely turned to the next student and wondered where that girl was.

She... WOULD come, no?

Quote:

Another new face, looking tired... maybe they ought to think of some kind of elevator? He didn't like it that the students looked tired in HIS class, because they needed all their energy. He... would talk about it to Annie. Meanwhile, he smiled at the girl and looked at the next one.

Angel smiled as she looked around to see Adi and AJ together, she gave them a smile before turning back to Ben, she had no idea what they we so she just stayed next to Ben without saying another word.

And the twin that wanted Benny... Actually, Cosgrach was glad she liked Benny, because to him, it always looked as if Benny was in the shadow of Adi - the prefect, the social one; whereas Benny was always silent and serious. So he very much approved, and didn't even call out the girl's name. Just letting her interact with Benny, and hopefully make him more social.

Cosgrach wanted to think he was DREAMING, but he was not. The intruder was a male, and nothing like Sophie. He - didn't even know that seat was special? Reserved only for Sophie? First, his eyes were narrowed, then he looked at the poor boy as if he wanted to kill him, and then he felt this terrible urge to move the kid to somewhere else, but there were people coming and he couldn't just do THAT.

But he could make the kid's life TERRIBLE there.

"You've got to greet me. I'm a professor, not your house elf to ignore."

Glaring. Waiting.

What was up with these new people? Didn't they know they HAD TO greet him? Like he wasn't there to be ignored, y'know? Cosgrach was already stressed someone ELSE was sitting iat Soph's desk, so when this one ignored him too, he had to EMBARRASS the boy.

"Hi, you, yes, hello," he called out, one finger pointing at his chest. "It'd be nice if you noticed me, y'know."

He didn't look like he KNEW, so Cosgrach began teaching early today.

Like her, see? Greet him warmly and sit somewhere that wasn't Sophie's seat, and Cosgrach would be the sweetest person on earth. To demonstrate, he smiled WARMLY back and said "Welcome, girl."

See that, class?

Ethan took a seat near the front, sat back and made his presence known. “Professor.” A curt nod was all that he could give. He wasn’t sure how to greet this man anymore. Culloden’s state was just troubling.

Ethan!

Cosgrach would have GRIIIINNED at him, but for the serious nod and greeting. Now HE was concerned. Had something else happened? Was his talk not effective enough? Questions filled his head, and before long, he was looking at Ethan gravely with questioning looks.

If he had to see him, he knew where to find him.

Dude was cool but dude also looked.......... off. Tired. It was better than his moody state where dumb people liked to make him madder, that was for sure.

Someone was happy, eh?

Happy people made Cosgrach happy, so the man waved at the boy enthusiatically.

"Grayson," he called and nodded in approval when he sat next to Ethan. He would cheer him up, huh? Yeah. Good friends did that, and Grayson looked to be one.

...

......yeah fine ALRIGHT Cosgrach would make amendments with this one too.

"Hello," he said back and took a mental note to set things right with him as well.

Ugh. He ought to be Saint Cosgrach, seriously.

Quote:

Originally Posted by WeasleyGirl

"Hello...professor" smiled a bit and went to find a seat beside a random person. Carefully he placed his cauldron on the floor.

You know who his favourite students (at least at first) were?

Shy, but well educated first years. You know why?

Because they RESPECTED him, but also FEARED him to the point of re-thinking everything before doing it. It was precious and ver encouraging. As this one turned out to be such a first year too, he nodded, grinned (but not vastly, as he hoped to keep that respect) and casually looked at the next person.

Quote:

Maddie!

Cosgrach grinned at the girl lazily and waved his hand. "'Tis good to see you again." With all her excitement and all. He was glad most of the students seem to like his class. He watched her sit by the new guy. She would hopefully make him more communicative? Huh?

"Miss Cambridge," Cosgrach greeted the girl with a sly smile. He would have greeted her with a 'Best H.G.' and embarrass her, but he chose not to.

Yet.

Quote:

FINALLY she was -

Yeah yeah, Cosgrach knew, if SHE wanted, she could go bully the boy and take her seat -

No.

No. No. No.

Was she really going to sit with Toby instead of her USUAL seat for TWO years? But it was folly! He wouldn't even think of warning her if she would be a bully, because see, she would be taking what was HERS anyway.

But she really did believe Cosgrach would be sold to just one 'I'm sorry not really' look, really did sit with Tobias and did really not look at him again.

He couldn't breathe. Someone help.

To Cutty he seemed a bit...tired, but he wrote it off as madman research. He must have been on the brink of some discovery. Cutty was determined to find out what that was.

So, Cutty was here at last too. Cosgrach nodded at the boy (even though Cutty was grinning, Cosgrach found it hard to grin back) and waved back.

"Hello, Cutty," he answered back and turned his attention to the next student.

Awkward moment hehehaha.

Quote:

...well?

No greeting?

Cosgrach's eyebrows were raised as he looked expectantly, but... nope.

Sigh.

"Hello, Jeremiah." Y'know, greeting was caring? No?

Quote:

Lux was here!

Phew. For a moment he thought she wouldn't be able to make it. Phewwww.

So he greeted her enthusiastically back.

"I am, thank you." Grin. What a lovely child!

"Kace, welcome," he greeted back, and would have smiled, but couldn't, because the boy was shivering.

"Why are you shivering?" It wasn't especially cold yet... was it?

Quote:

Okay!

In fact, COsgrach just griiiiinned and chuckled and shook his head to himself.

"Hullo back, Kyroh!" Could the son and father be any different? Cosgrach doubted it, but he was glad he got to deal with the son now.

So right. Ahem. "Hi Professor," it took every ounce of his being to be smiley towards the guy. A) C was a scary man B) The bed thing -____-

HeheheheheHE!

Zander.

Cosgrach's lips curled into a dirty smile as soon as he saw the boy, and he even laughed briefly. This boy... oddly brought out the bully in him. Maybe it was the way he always looked so scared of him. Haha. That was funny.

"Hello, son," he greeted him and watched him sit with Kevin. Were they even friends?

World was odd.

1. Cosgrach didn't like this girl.

2. He didn't want her in HIS classroom.

3. She was Minister's daughter.

4. She was the most dramatic person he'd ever seen.

5. So she COULD cost him his job.

6. He didn't like her at all.

When you summed all, you sometimes had to act deaf to some words. And so he did. Deaf. Ignorant. As if she didn't exist.

Why did she exist?

The seventh year greeted, "Feeling alright?" He asked, hoping that he wouldn't take it the wrong way being that was sincerely asking if he was okay.

Ah, finally, a sensitive person to ASK how HE was.

"I'm alright, thanks for asking, Duncan." Duncan was his name, he knew. He was such a great teacher!

Hayden was here as well.

So this concluded about everyone, right?

Right.

"Hello there," he greeted the second year and smiled. It was great to see them all... save for Bay. Where was he?

Alright?

Cosgrach wanted to answer with a 'No,' just for the fun of it, but he forced himself to nod. "I am, thanks for asking." Mr. New.

Let's see if HE was alright at potion making.

Quote:

Gryffindors and their attitude.

He didn't like them. Maybe Alexa would hex this one too? Or maybe she should hex some people in advance so as not to deal with them during brewing.

Hmm. He would bring that up to her later.

Quote:

Originally Posted by Meizzner

'What's up'?

Haha. Hahaha.

"Jus' chillin', mate, what's up with you?"

Were they even ALLOWED to 'What's up?' a professor?

Well.

Cosgrach waved his wand and closed the door (yes, he was too lazy to get up, frankly). He turned at them then and got up almost reluctantly. His body was stiff, but he didn't show that... too much.

"Welcome all to the potions class," he said ceremoniously, "I'm Professor Cosgrach Culloden and this is my third year here." He tried to make eye contact with the new faces. This introduction was for them, after all. He briefly paused to see if anyone had any questions about himself, then shrugged.

"If you think I need to learn your name, write it on a paper on your desk." Like, if they wanted to impress him to benefit and all. If not... "Today, we will brew a hate potion. There are several types of it, and this one will make you hate the person you see first." Don't ask him how that would benefit anyone. He was here to teach it.

He waved his wand and the ingredients appeared on the blackboard.

Yes.

"Now, first step is adding the jobberknoll feather without any water or fire."

Understood?

Good.

OOC: The class has begun, so please do not post yourself late! Just act as if you've been here all the time.

We will continue about 18 hours later.

What was up with these new people? Didn't they know they HAD TO greet him? Like he wasn't there to be ignored, y'know? Cosgrach was already stressed someone ELSE was sitting iat Soph's desk, so when this one ignored him too, he had to EMBARRASS the boy. "Hi, you, yes, hello," he called out, one finger pointing at his chest. "It'd be nice if you noticed me, y'know." He didn't look like he KNEW, so Cosgrach began teaching early today.

Greet him warmly and sit somewhere that wasn't Sophie's seat, and Cosgrach would be the sweetest person on earth. To demonstrate, he smiled WARMLY back and said "Welcome, girl." See that, class? Quote: Originally Posted by Mordred Ethan did not make an effort to look happy, because it was hard to pretend around that man. The prefect eyed the professor, sighed and shook his head, and looked for a seat while the potions master was busy welcoming the student before him. Ethan took a seat near the front, sat back and made his presence known. “Professor.” A curt nod was all that he could give. He wasn’t sure how to greet this man anymore. Culloden’s state was just troubling. Ethan! Cosgrach would have GRIIIINNED at him, but for the serious nod and greeting. Now HE was concerned. Had something else happened? Was his talk not effective enough? Questions filled his head, and before long, he was looking at Ethan gravely with questioning looks. If he had to see him, he knew where to find him. Quote: Originally Posted by hermionesclone Speaking of Culloden, the boy's blue eyes sought out for and landed on him first when he entered the classroom. "Hello Professor!" he called, giving the man a polite smile and nod. Dude was cool but dude also looked.......... off. Tired. It was better than his moody state where dumb people liked to make him madder, that was for sure. Someone was happy, eh? Happy people made Cosgrach happy, so the man waved at the boy enthusiatically. "Grayson," he called and nodded in approval when he sat next to Ethan. He would cheer him up, huh? Yeah. Good friends did that, and Grayson looked to be one. Quote: Originally Posted by DuckyLinJi He was so lost in thought that when he walked by the Professor's desk he even mumbled an "Hello" and walked , still deep in thought to a desk. ... ......yeah fine ALRIGHT Cosgrach would make amendments with this one too. "Hello," he said back and took a mental note to set things right with him as well. Ugh. He ought to be Saint Cosgrach, seriously. Quote: Originally Posted by WeasleyGirl "Hello...professor" smiled a bit and went to find a seat beside a random person. Carefully he placed his cauldron on the floor. You know who his favourite students (at least at first) were? Shy, but well educated first years. You know why? Because they RESPECTED him, but also FEARED him to the point of re-thinking everything before doing it. It was precious and ver encouraging. As this one turned out to be such a first year too, he nodded, grinned (but not vastly, as he hoped to keep that respect) and casually looked at the next person. Quote: Originally Posted by TakemetotheBurrow The second year entered the classroom confidently, taking note of the man at the front FIRST. "Hello Professor! Good to be back." She couldn't WAIT to see what they'd be doing today. P.S. She didn't need to use that basin at ALL. Aguamenti PRO over here. Maddie! Cosgrach grinned at the girl lazily and waved his hand. "'Tis good to see you again." With all her excitement and all. He was glad most of the students seem to like his class. He watched her sit by the new guy. She would hopefully make him more communicative? Huh? Quote: Originally Posted by DaniDiNardo "Good day Professor." Lex might have suggested a sleeping draught or two for the worn looking man but he was the potions expert. He knew what he was doing. "Miss Cambridge," Cosgrach greeted the girl with a sly smile. He would have greeted her with a 'Best H.G.' and embarrass her, but he chose not to. Yet. Quote: Originally Posted by feeheeheeny She offered him a regretful, helpless sort of look anyway, and chose to sit exactly one seat away from one Tobias Tempus, the one seat in between them being saved for someone she figured Tobes would want to sit with. FINALLY she was - Yeah yeah, Cosgrach knew, if SHE wanted, she could go bully the boy and take her seat - No. No. No. No. Was she really going to sit with Toby instead of her USUAL seat for TWO years? But it was folly! He wouldn't even think of warning her if she would be a bully, because see, she would be taking what was HERS anyway. But she really did believe Cosgrach would be sold to just one 'I'm sorry not really' look, really did sit with Tobias and did really not look at him again. He couldn't breathe. Someone help. Quote: Originally Posted by SlytherinSistah So with a large and possibly even sincere grin, he waved over to Cosgrach Culloden and greeted him. "Good afternoon, Professor." To Cutty he seemed a bit...tired, but he wrote it off as madman research. He must have been on the brink of some discovery. Cutty was determined to find out what that was. So, Cutty was here at last too. Cosgrach nodded at the boy (even though Cutty was grinning, Cosgrach found it hard to grin back) and waved back. "Hello, Cutty," he answered back and turned his attention to the next student. Awkward moment hehehaha. Quote: Originally Posted by JennMarie Nodding to the professor he offered the man a smile and a small wave. he wasn't all about talking today so that much wasn't going to happen. ...well? No greeting? Cosgrach's eyebrows were raised as he looked expectantly, but... nope. Sigh. "Hello, Jeremiah." Y'know, greeting was caring? No? Quote: Originally Posted by Squishy Skipping into the classroom, she waved to Professor Culloden. "Hello, professor! I hope you are well today!" She sure was. Beaming at everyone she found her seat and started setting everything up. Lux was here! Phew. For a moment he thought she wouldn't be able to make it. Phewwww. So he greeted her enthusiastically back. "I am, thank you." Grin. What a lovely child! Quote: Originally Posted by Expecto-Penguin He smiled and greeted him with the famous, "Good Day Professor. I trust you are well.." Then he made his way to his seat and start shivering. He wished he brought some gloves with him. "Kace, welcome," he greeted back, and would have smiled, but couldn't, because the boy was shivering. "Why are you shivering?" It wasn't especially cold yet... was it? Quote: Originally Posted by Kaos.Doodles “Hullo Sir!!” Big grins for the Potions Master. That meant no getting mad at him please, okay? Okay! In fact, COsgrach just griiiiinned and chuckled and shook his head to himself. "Hullo back, Kyroh!" Could the son and father be any different? Cosgrach doubted it, but he was glad he got to deal with the son now. Quote: Originally Posted by ArianaBlack That is exactly why Zander Adair walked into the room with a small smile. Not because he was looking forward to the class (which he wasn't) and not because he was happy to see Professor Culloden (which was meh), but because maybe, just maaaayyyybbbeee he could get on the guy's good side again (if there really was one) AND GET SOME MORE LIQUID LUCK!! So right. Ahem. "Hi Professor," it took every ounce of his being to be smiley towards the guy. A) C was a scary man B) The bed thing -____- HeheheheheHE! Zander. Cosgrach's lips curled into a dirty smile as soon as he saw the boy, and he even laughed briefly. This boy... oddly brought out the bully in him. Maybe it was the way he always looked so scared of him. Haha. That was funny. "Hello, son," he greeted him and watched him sit with Kevin. Were they even friends? World was odd. Quote: Originally Posted by Mad Eye Touz HIGH FIVES YEAH. "Sup, man. Hope you're ready, 'cause Professor Potions can be meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeean mean. Like super uncool. I mean, you add one extra ingredient or something and he goes all haywire house point crazy." SO YOU KNOW, fair warning. Keep your nose down. Don't set anyone's hair on fire. 1. Cosgrach didn't like this girl. 2. He didn't want her in HIS classroom. 3. She was Minister's daughter. 4. She was the most dramatic person he'd ever seen. 5. So she COULD cost him his job. 6. He didn't like her at all. When you summed all, you sometimes had to act deaf to some words. And so he did. Deaf. Ignorant. As if she didn't exist. Why did she exist? Quote: Originally Posted by Awarlesta Black Those thoughts aside, he sluggishly walked into the potions classroom to find that the professor looked like he wasn't feeling all that well either, "Good day, Professor." The seventh year greeted, "Feeling alright?" He asked, hoping that he wouldn't take it the wrong way being that was sincerely asking if he was okay. Ah, finally, a sensitive person to ASK how HE was. "I'm alright, thanks for asking, Duncan." Duncan was his name, he knew. He was such a great teacher! Quote: Originally Posted by littledhampir So she smiled and greeted him cheerfully when she walked in. "Hello Professor." She went to take a seat in a very comfortable chair and began to set up her stuff as she waited for class to start. Hayden was here as well. So this concluded about everyone, right? Right. "Hello there," he greeted the second year and smiled. It was great to see them all... save for Bay. Where was he? Quote: Originally Posted by BluePhyre As he crossed the threshold he both needlessly bowed his head–the very notion of hitting his head on the arch was laughable, considering his height–and bade Cosgrach a quiet greeting. “All right, Professor?” Alright? Cosgrach wanted to answer with a 'No,' just for the fun of it, but he forced himself to nod. "I am, thanks for asking." Mr. New. Let's see if HE was alright at potion making. Quote: Originally Posted by Optimist "Good day Professor?" she grinned over to the Professor... "Good day, yes." Gryffindors and their attitude. He didn't like them. Maybe Alexa would hex this one too? Or maybe she should hex some people in advance so as not to deal with them during brewing. Hmm. He would bring that up to her later. Quote: Originally Posted by Meizzner Well anyway, "What's Up, Professor" 'What's up'? Haha. Hahaha. "Jus' chillin', mate, what's up with you?" Were they even ALLOWED to 'What's up?' a professor? Well. Cosgrach waved his wand and closed the door (yes, he was too lazy to get up, frankly). He turned at them then and got up almost reluctantly. His body was stiff, but he didn't show that... too much. "Welcome all to the potions class," he said ceremoniously, "I'm Professor Cosgrach Culloden and this is my third year here." He tried to make eye contact with the new faces. This introduction was for them, after all. He briefly paused to see if anyone had any questions about himself, then shrugged. "If you think I need to learn your name, write it on a paper on your desk." Like, if they wanted to impress him to benefit and all. If not... "Today, we will brew a hate potion. There are several types of it, and this one will make you hate the person you see first." Don't ask him how that would benefit anyone. He was here to teach it. He waved his wand and the ingredients appeared on the blackboard.
