"Humans," the boy offered, still staring through the glass of his jar. "'Cause they're kinda the same body shape as us, but really small. And have wings. And can fly. And glow." Maybe not that similar, but still a liiiiiiiiittle bit. "... We have similar faces."

That would do, right?

The Professor's face for a moment was unreadable as he pondered, "An interesting comparison Mr.Tempus.."

Hopefully those were all collected after they passed away.

She only briefly eyed Kevin over there - detention was becoming a pretty regular thing for him, wasn't it? - and as Thompson led them back to the benches, Soph glanced at Tobes and Z-... oh. No Zahra there anymore. Maybe they weren't as close as it seemed? Feeling a little relief, she returned to her spot on the bench and set the jar nicely in her lap. What creatures were like a fairy? Besides doxies and humans? "Erm... leprechauns?" she offered, her hand raised. "They also are human-like in appearance and really small, only up to five or six inches in height, I think." She wasn't entirely sure just how tall either of them got, but she was pretty sure they were about the same size. Probably.

"Indeed, they share in common having a shorter statue."

Couldn't help but smile at the human thing though. That was kinda a stretch.

"A quaint but fair comparison."

"Indeed, though Unicorns are more humble than fairies on their appearance."

Oh this was a question she could answer! Ruby put her hand up.

"Fairies are like Flitterby moths professor, they fly and sound like they're laughing when they do." Just like how the fairies were laughing.

"Very good, Miss Banner."

Holding the jar on her knee with one hand Hady raised her other hand into the air. "How about the butterfly Professor? Fairies and butterflies both have beautiful wings and their growing process is about the same...from an egg to a caterpillar or larvae and then into cocoon. When they come out their full grown as the butterfly or fairy." She'd read up as much as she could on fairies and many other animals/creatures growing up because it was her passion so far in life.

"While butterflies aren't considered magical, that is a fine comparison."

"Imps, sir," he said, raising a hand in the air, "They're a similar height to fairies but that's it. That's where the similarities stop, really." Because Imps were dull in colour and couldn't fly.

"Correct."

What creature shares a trait with the fairies and how so? Hmm....

Kace raised his hand, "Professor I think fireflies can share a trait because they are impossible to catch sometimes and plus they glow in the night time.." he shrugged and continued to look at his jar.

"Indeed. Hence why many choose to observe their beauty from afar."

"Good.. and that is why it is important to handle every creature with respect like yourself when you realise the similarities shared." The Professor then reached into another box to bring out a small bottle. To those familiar with cooking it looked like a regular seasoning. "Now everyone take one bottle, pour a small amount into the jar carefully before passing the box to the next person to take." Just what was this meant to do? As Javy demonstrated, small speckles of red rained down on the pixies. Now the two pixies were.. dancing? But why?

"While Fairies are mainly used as decoration, testing, and bait for creatures. Some choose to hold them as pets. For the rest of the week you'll be their caretakers.. Perhaps you might even spot eggs in the jar." So with that, it now meant. "Class is dismissed, the homework will be posted momentarily.. If you didn't happen to catch at least one fairy, you may head back to catch one quickly if no one else is willing to part with one of their fairies.." Which shouldn't be a problem, considering some were housing more than two. Heh.

HAHA! Uuhhh... common traits? "Doxies, Sir?" he said, raising his hand. "They're small and very much like these." Quote: Originally Posted by Hey Ju BWAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! That Gryffindor kid got a detention. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Agatha smiiirrrkkkeeedddd evilly at him when the professor announced it then waited until the man was further away from them and let out a LAUGH at the Gryffindor boy, making sure he could see and hear her. That was brilliant. The Slytherin went back to her seat with two fairies in her jar and crossed on leg over the other. She listened to professor Thompson with the smirk still on her face and raised a hand when he asked the next question. "Doxies." They were Dark fairies, she thought. Disgusting-looking fairies. She wished she knew more about them. Hopefully thta would be the lesson's next topic. "Certainly.." Would've been nice to hear a reason from the young lady too but oh well. SPOILER!!: Pixies Quote: Originally Posted by FearlessLeader19 Adi high fived the guy bestie just Professor announced that the activity was over. It was a good thing the Lion and the Badger had wasted no time in capturing their fairies. Adi glanced over to Benny's jar as they headed back to the benched. He was not one bit surprised to see one fairy glaring at him. That would be Cheeky Fairy. Right. So this next question. "Cornish Pixies, Professor,'' Adi said, his hand up as he shot another look at Benny's jar. Quote: Originally Posted by Harry174 Angel looked at the Professor and smiled. "A pixie." Angel wasn't really that interested at the minute... she wanted to know why Kevin had just jinxed someone for no reason what-so-ever apparently. "They can fly and they are small just like a fairy." Angel said truthfully. "Yes they are quite similar." SPOILER!!: Wood Nymphs Quote: Originally Posted by DuckyLinJi He huffed loudly and then without anything else he turned around sharply and walked away towards the benches they had sat earlier with his jar and fairy tucked under his arm. “Wood nymphs” he grumbled annoyingly. Quote: Originally Posted by Edward Penguin Ian was very nearly on the way to capturing a fairy when the professor said it was time to be done. He frowned and looked at his empty jar and at the fairy occupied ones of his classmates. He was disappointed, but it want the first time he'd failed to complete a task in class. He followed the professor to the clearing where his satchel lay and he put his silent, fairy deficient jar back in it. Ian thought as he listened to the other students answers and he mentioned, Would nymphs be correct, or would they be another type of fairy? Ian wasn't quite sure of the zoology of fairies and nymphs so the could be different. "Wood nymphs will do, yes.." Curtly nodding.
