Stepping inside the room the first thing she noticed was the desks and chairs were all gone. Boxes were placed around with fabric inside them and mannequins were next to stools. Were they going to making dresses or something?

Slightly puzzled she fixed her bag over her shoulder and smiled at the Professor. "Good morning, Professor." Hady greeted warmly wondering if she should sit down or wait for more people to arrive. For now she'd wait a moment.

Did they smell that?

Fresh clean air! Early mornings were the best time for lessons and here was her first student.

"Good morning Miss Lynch. Take two points for being the first student here."

But she took a seat. "Morning, Professor...." she said softly and she sighed as she sunk into her seat. Her mood....was very clearly down. She didn't see anyone she knew-but was she in the mood to be friendly? No. She hoped Clara wasn't in this class...or Phoenix...they were the LAST people she wanted to see right now...maybe Connor...or Nemo or someone. Or Puck. Anyone from her Gryffindor squad would do...

She yawned and rested her face on her desk...maybe she'd disappear...WHOOH.

The Slytherin stepped into the room and was taken aback slightly. She was expecting to see the normal polished tables, but there were only stool and mannequins and loads of fabrics or sorts. Huh. "Good morning, professor Bellaire." She greeted the woman with a smile and a polite nod anyway. She was the BEST professor of the entire school, so yeah. "I'm really looking forward to today's lesson!" TRUE. "Here, my uncle sent you this!" She held out a jar of honey for the professor to take, smile still in place.

The fourth year then looked at the people who had arrived before her and made a face at the Ravenclaw girl. Ugh, no way she was sitting next to HER. The ballerina rolled her eyes and went to the other side of the room.

Never the less Cinna was heading to the class. Sleeply still but ready to get the lesson started. She came on inside the classroom. "Morning, professor Bellaire." She gave her a small kind of sleepy smile as she walked by.

She walked on to find a seat or stool she should say. She waved at Eden and took the stool beside her. She gave her a smile. She patted her shoulder as well. She didn't speak yet because she knew how annoying to was when people kept asking if she was okay. She did give her a hug and few seconds later.

She stood next to the stool until Bellaire started the lesson. She knew better than to sit before being told to do so in this lesson.

"Good Morning Professor Bellaire", Jasmine said upon spotting the Professor. She saw her housemate Eden and headed straight for her. Finding the stool nearest Eden, she stood next to it. Then looking straight ahead, she tried to whisper discreetly. "Eden, get up. We have to be given permission before we sit in this class." Then she really looked at her housemate. She looked exhausted. Bellaire would have a field day with her if Jasmine didn't act fast. "Straighten your hair a little bit.", Jasmine said out of the side of her mouth. She was worried about Eden. This was definitely not like her. She would have to find out what was wrong after class. She dared not ask right now.

Professor Bellaire's eyes trailed the student to her seat, all the while counting down from 20 in her mind. She would not turn the student into a frog..she would not turn the student into a frog..she would not....

She sat down...

She would turn the student into a frog..she WOULD turn the student into a frog. She opened her mouth to blast the student into next term for her appearance and for not reading and bothering to learn her classroom rules when other students showed up as well....

"Good morning Miss Hapwood...Oh!" She took the jar of honey and her expression softened."Tell Orsino thank you and that I will send him something soon." She nodded at the girl and put the honey on her next.

Now back to this disrespectful student...but first..

"Miss Bayless you will refrain from any silly hand waving or hugs in my classroom. This is not a social gathering...good morning."

"Good morning Miss Guidry, I suppose it's fair to say that your fellow student owes you a big thank you for that, because she was about to spend the rest of the lesson as a frog."

Her uniform was clean and orderly so she should be okay.

As the second year made her way in she noticed that the classroom was different. Were those mannequins? AJ was also pretty sure she saw some colored fabrics off to the side. Oh no. They weren't going to play dress up, were they? Perhaps she should have just stayed in bed. AJ would have been much warmer that way. Spotting the professor, she gave her a warm smile. "Good Morning, professor." Hadleigh was already there, and she got a smile along with a wave. The lion decided to stand by Jasmine. She knew better than to have a seat just yet. "Hey." The older girl was super nice, and AJ still had the valentine's day card that she made her last year.

"Good morning Miss Valentine, as I said to a student before you, no waving." she got a look and a frown.

It wasn't like he wanted to wear it like this, he prefered the tie hanging loose and his shirt unbuttoned but he also wasn't in the mood for yet another detention.

Entering the classroom, he immediately noticed the mannequins, then walked past the Professor, gave her a curt nod...which was all she got because he still wasn't much of the greetings type of person and went to stand next to a desk close by Eden who had sat down on the stool.

He grinned because Ravenclaw was gonna lose some pooooiiints hehehe. Until he heard the Ravenclaw Prefect telling her to stand up. BOO!

"Good morning to you too Mr. Hirase.." And that was a pointed 'you did not actually say ood morning,' good morning from the professor, because a nod of the head was certainly NOT good morning.

But he still felt a bit sleepy. He stifled a yawn as he paused outside of the classroom to ensure his uniform was neat. His hair might be a bit tidier given that Professor Bellaire disliked tardiness.

Finally, he stepped into the room. "Good morning, Professor.'' A smile for the lady before Adi set off to go stand by a desk. Oh wait. There were none. Just stools and mannequins. Still, they'd have to stand by the stools, right? The Hufflepuff did just that. He could see Jasmine but she seemed busy with someone else. And AJ. HAIII, AJ.

"Good morning Mr. Rehman." She looked him up and down in her usual scanning manner before following him with her eyes to the stool.

He thought to go back to the healer and explain that whatever Lex had eaten, he must have eaten to, but she'd been so sure he'd be fine..

Looking at the dress forms, Thornton hoisted his bag up on his shoulder and went to stand near one. Had.. this professor gone the way of Hook!steed or was this what he should expect?

Poor first year. No frame of reference.

Well well well.....she had another rude student on her hand but these students would soon learn that being rude got them nowhere in the world and they would certainly get nowhere in her classroom with a lack of manners.

"What is the matter? Did the cat get your tongue?"

Her eyebrows raised slightly in interest and then the second year found Professor Bellaire and she let a polite smile grace her lips. "Morning, Professor Bellaire." Greeting done, she went and found a stool to stand by, hands clasped in front of her.

"Good morning Miss Cooper." No hug requesting anymore. Good. Sophia was very pleased with this progress. Maybe the child was now learning boundaries.

When he walked to the classroom, he smiled. PUPPETS! he screamed silently in his head. He looked around for a new puppetmaster, but all he saw was an unhappy looking woman. He walked up to her, still looking around for the puppetmaster. Remembering his manners, like Papa Gepetto had told him, he asked sort of quietly. Hello Ma'am. I see you have frames for the puppets. Are we going to make puppets today? I know all about puppets, even though I'm a real boy now. I don't see the puppetmaster though. Is he here? He looked rather dapper in his yellow shirt peeking out of his rather crudely made short pant overalls. (at least he thought so).

What in Merlin's Beard?!

Sophia folded her arms and looked at the boy. Was he out of his juvenile mind?

"Don't be ridiculous Mr. Tinker. I am the only puppet master here, now go find a stool and stand next to it..." Before her mood got ruined any further.

Good Merlin.

Ethan looked around him as he entered the classroom. He too greeted the professor, "Good morning, Professor Bellaire." to make his presence known. Now, where to sit? Ah yes, far away from everybody else.

Hopefully Grayson would sit by him. It'll be fun to work with the fifth year, just like the last time.

And this one was Transfiguration, which meant that there was no way in Merlin that he could even be a second late. He couldn't rush getting dressed either, because Bellaire had rules and whatnot about dress code and being neatly presented. And if he didn't remember it from last year, he certainly remembered it after a little incident at the feast at the beginning of the year.

So, with one final collar bop and a tightening of his tie, Grayson entered the classroom. Oh jeez. Oh MAN. Was this going to be a lesson on fashion?! Shudder. If that was the case, he was SO gonna work with Phoenix. Their product might end up looking too glittery for the Slytherin's tastes but it'd end up looking freaking BRILLIANT.

Oh look! Agatha was showing off. Surprise surprise.

"Good morning, Professor Bellaire," he said, giving her a curt nod of his head before moving to stand by..........

Ethan! YES. GOOD company if he ever saw one. And they worked together on things last year. Bonus. "'Sup?" he said, giving the Prefect a nod AND a smile once he reached the stool next to the fourth year's. Standing. Absolutely.

Yeah, That would help.

"Hi, Professor Bellaire"

What was with the body things in the room. They did not have heads or feet...Really Weird.

"Good morning Mr. Mordaunt..Mr. Whitlock." She of course looked them up and down for any discrepancies in their uniform but found none. She did flash Grayson a frown however.

"No talking Mr. Whitlock!"

Probably.

And this made the Ravenclaw feel MISERABLE. So she had to STAND now. Her thoughts were confirmed when Jasmine told her to stand--UGHHH. Eden sloooowly raised herself off her stool and rubbed her face. "Fiiiiine--" she whined, and she tried her best to flatten her hair. She had no energy to deal with a cranky professor. Maybe she should have used a brush this morning...maybe.

Her magic was DEFINITELY going to be off today, though, because of her very down mood. Her mood had such a big affect on her magic, too...UGH.

"Five points from RavenClaw Miss McGee."

Transformation, Transfiguration...same thing.

Ethan looked to his side and saw the person he wanted to stand by. "Hey!" Ethan greeted the older boy and gave him a pat on the back. "Thanks for the hoodie, by the way. I never got to owl you back anything..." Not even a thank you note, which was a shame because...family happened.

Sigh.

The glares were oh so real. Did they want to see how good she had gotten at deducting points? She really didn't mind showing off her skills and she equally didn't care about what house she was deducting them from.

He stopped outside the classroom and took a few moments to straighten himself out again, and look all neat, and then headed into the classroom, still straightening his school tie.

Mannequins then... this could be interesting. Toby didn't break his stride as he headed straight for his usual spot by one of the windows, and stood behind one of the stools.

"Good morning, Professor Bellaire," the Hufflepuff said politely, now fiddling incessantly with the end of his tie without even realising it as he went from smiling at the professor to glancing curiously over at those boxes.

"Good morning Mr. Tempus." She watched him carefully as he made his way to his usual spot. Why was he always so twitchy? That could not be normal behaviour. She'd advise that he see the healer after.

He tried to get the sleepynes out of his eyes. Once he felt he was awake he entered the classroom and he saw other students made it here before him. He saw Cinna was there and he smiled and waved to her. As he took in the view of the room, he noticed mannequins and fashion fabrics. Maybe they were making some clothes? Not really up Kace's ally. He even saw his mate Ethan. He went to go stand next to his buddy. He didn't sit down unless told to do so. "Hey mate guessing we are making clothes right?" It was a simple assumption right. He was using his observation skills.

"So you didn't have the decency to say good morning to your professor but you're not too shy about striking up a conversation in my class? I don't think so Mr. Lecium. Two points from Hufflepuff."

She didn't care too much about who she was near in this class, as there was pretty much zero opportunity to smile or laugh or have any fun, so she actually avoided Tobes a little - she would have just ended up wanting to goof off in his presence - and ended up claiming a stool near Ethan, Grayson, and Kace, standing tall beside the stool and smiling politely at Bellaire.

"Good morning, professor." And she even curtsied a little. EXTRA polite. Super impressive. And never sitting.

"Good morning Miss Brown." Why couldn't all the students do as instructed so she didn't have to waste so much time reprimanding students? She would never not do it if it was needed, but she also valued her teaching time.

Walking inside, she was rather surprised at the set up. Hopefully this would be an interesting lesson. "Morning, Professor Bellaire." Finding a stool near her friends, she stood by it. She was too sleepy to say her regular hellos to everyone, so she just gave waves. She just needed her Bay to arrive.

"Good morning, Professor Bellaire!" Angel smiled and gave a little curtsy, see she could be posh and polite when she wanted to, she then went and stood because her desk and waited for the Professor to speak.

"Goodmorning, Professor Bellaire." Matter-of-fact, not too chipper or overly saccharine came the greeting from pupil to mentor. He found a spot over by Happygoody and her impossibly straight posture, hoping Bev would join them. Meanwhile, he surveyed the props in the room that surrounded them. Merlin. Fashion. Merlin.

And now the students started pouring in, so Sophia checked her watch. The others just had a few more minutes before she would shut the door and begin her lesson.

"Good morning Miss Carrington."

"Good morning Miss Valentine."

"Mr. Morduant..." Her eyes followed them all to their seats.

He didn't sit...

He practically didn't breathe....

He......would probably about to bolt from the room...in all honesty.

.........and from his shock at seeing the room, Gabriel had forgotten that this was the teacher responsible for his sister's torment. Mild anxiety attack possibly in progress......

Sophia stared back...unblinking...waiting...and waiting some more. What was with this odd generation of students at Hogwarts?

"Have you been petrified Mr....?" What? HIs name was slipping her and so was her patience.

“Hey Eden” she quietly called over, “Morning mer...maid Kace,” she grinned toward Kace, and Lux in turn…heck even Sophie got a grin at that one. She after all had been relegated to sitting on the shells with her as well.

Alexa took an involuntary step back at the sight of the mannequins before she could remind herself that she'd already gotten over that fear ages ago. What even? Last time she saw mannequins in Transfig she was a First Year. Wow, just wow. Needless to say, the Gryffindor walked cautiously into the room, not only because the oversized dolls freaked her out but because she didn't think she'd like where this class was going.

It seemed like it had the potential to get overly girly. Ugh.

"Good morning Pofessor." No comments on anything as she stood behind her desk.

Benny didn't know, but he did know that he had to try and be put together. Bellaire was a stickler and while he really wanted to just enter the classroom dejectedly and just sit down, the woman would be watching closely. No slouches or messes in her classroom and the fourth year wasn't going to be the one called out.

So after making sure he looked presentable, the Gryffindor finally made his way inside, noticing the different layout. "Hello Professor," he greeted simply before heading to an empty station, standing beside the stool until permission was given to sit. He saw Adi, AJ and Angel all already there and managed a weak smile.

"Come on..hurry on in." Why were they moving in so slowly? She didn't want a back up of traffic at the door way of her classroom.

"Good morning Miss Greyvson."

"Good morning Miss Cambridge."

"Good morning Mr.Atreyu."

It was hard to get into too much trouble between the dorms, the Great Hall and the Transfiguration classroom anyhow, if she’d even been inclined to. Instead, she’d made sure any cat hair from Tywin was left behind, and that nobody had deigned to even think about touching her. The advantage to having had her sister here before her was that she at least knew some things, and while Lily hadn’t taken Astronomy for some reason, she had taken Transfiguration. There weren’t going to be lost any points from her now she was here.

Stepping into the room, she just gave a curious sort of glance toward the setup. Obviously they were going to be doing something here. Not just a boring lecture and taking notes. There weren’t even desks to take notes on. She’d contemplated going over to a stool near Ethan, but then she’d seen Hady all by her lonesome. The prefect was practically collecting people around him, so she veered toward her dormmate. Giving Professor Bellaire a smile and another little curtsy on her way. “Good morning Professor Bellaire,” she said sweetly, before planting herself at the stool next to Hady’s and giving her fellow firstie a smile too. Not on the stool, but next to it, standing as straight and tall as her 4’11” form would let her. Even the mannequins were taller than her, but once she could climb on the stool that would go away.

"Miss. Andrews! Good morning!." She child received Professor Bellaire's first second smile of the morning. Such a perfect little child. She reminded her of her little Ariana.

She rubbed her eyes once more- it was waaay to early, considering she had been up late looking for her ruby slippers- before standing up straight and looking the lady in front of the room in the eye. "Good morning," whoever you are. She looked much too unhappy to be a good witch, but her skin wasn't green so she probably wasn't a bad with either. Shrug. Maybe she wasn't a witch at all. Did they have non-witches on this side of the rainbow?

Dorothy walked to a stool and glanced around the room again. Nobody was sitting, so she shouldn't either riiiight? She stood next to the stool, staring at her non-ruby, non-magical shoes and began to rock back and forth on her toes, humming Somewhere Over the Rainbow almost inaudibly under her breath. This side of the rainbow was NOTHING like that song, nuh-uh. It was coooold here. And her troubles sure weren't melting like any lemon drops SHE'D ever encountered.

"Good morning." New face..or perhaps she just didn't have any run ins with this child since the feast. Right. She checked the time again.

"Good Morning, Professor."

She almost sat down. Almost. Remembered just in time and remained standing.

Standing next to...

Oh that stuck up girl. Ruby had seen her around and talked to her in passing but otherwise not particularly had any need to socialize with her yet.

Ruby gave her a saccharine little smile and put her bag down, but didn't say anything since she immediately began looking around and eyeing up the boys, trying to work out if any of the good ones were close enough to communicate with during the lesson right under Bellaire's eyes.

"Miss Banner, what a lovely surprise..you're early...and.." she gave Ruby a careful scan..."your uniform is in tact." Rehabilitation was possible then.

There were only a few minutes remaining before Professor Bellaire would lock her classroom door and start her lesson, so whoever was late was in trouble and whoever didn't turn up for class would also be in trouble.

"Good morning Miss Wright."

Dot poked at the headless-person-doll nearest to her before taking its hand and swinging it lightly. She dropped it at the sight of the professor waiting at the front of the room, and Dot immediately straightened up and stuck out her chin. "Good morning, Queen Professor." What was her name?

Professor Bellaire's eyebrows almost cleared her forehead. Well then, as much as Queen Professor had a nice ring to it, the student really should make an effort to know who her professors were....for her own good.

"You would do well to learn the names of your professors Miss Wojack."

Looking around he noticed the room seemed different from most other rooms. There were...mannequins and fabrics...oh god...please don't say it...were they working on clothing design!? Gregoire knew nothing about clothing design! If only Giovanni were here from France. Then this would be perfect. Giovanni would be able to help him with this, and they would hold each others hands! That would be a happily ever after! If only there were such a thing as a happily ever after. But alas, no. That stuff only existed in fairy tales, and everyone knew fairy tales were fake.

Though...Gregoire was having second thoughts about that on how some of the people around this already strange castle called Hogwarts were making it seem even more absurd. Like seriously! He's seen someone walking around playing a pipe, and calling himself the Pied Piper...so unrealistic. Gazing at the professor he said "Bonjour Professeur Bellaire. How's it going?" After he asked that, he sat at one of the stools near the middle of the room. The middle was always his favorite spot to sit. Not to close to the teacher or professors desk, but not to far in the back so he couldn't see or hear them.

Right..so..a transfer..a french transfer."In this class we greet the professor by saying 'good morning' or 'good day' and we do not ask how's it going?' I am not your peer..but as it is..good morning."

With a wave to both of them, Kyroh was ABOUT to move over to one when he noticed the quiet older Ravenclaw being all...quiet. Huh.

So instead the second year changed his direction toward him. "Hullo!!" Bright smiles for you, cause you were one of his peoples!

"Good morning Mr.Scabior." What was he doing and where was he going? She liked him, he ought to keep it that way.

"This is not a social session Mr. Scabior. No talking."

Why did the bad things always involve Professor Bellaire's classroom?

Anyways, though in a sleepy state, the Gryffindor still noticed the strange set up of the classroom today. What was with the mannequins? After eyeing them for a couple of seconds, he shrugged and smiled at Professor Bellaire. Normally, he'd skip the smile on an early morning such as this one. But uh, Professor Bellaire might get angry. "Morning, Professor," and now we wait.

Dun Dun Dun.... Only two minutes remaining until the closing of the classroom door. People were really cutting it close her but lucky for them, they were still on time.

"Good morning Miss Adair..Miss Montgomery." They both received a nod of the head from her.

"Hi Professor Bellaire! he greeted cheerfully as he entered the room, his appearance pristine as he knew she would mind if it wasn't. Upon looking around, he barely took in the mannequins and fabric, instead locating his friends at... huh. Three different spots in the room. Which just meant Dima had to find a fourth.

The girl who threw VEGGIES at him in Astronomy caught his eye first, as well as that girl he'd seen around Grayson a lot. This was a good time to make NEW FRIENDS, right?

Of course it was. "Hi! I'm Dima!" Hi ladies, HIII.

They were gonna be BFFs.

Sophia was just about to face palm. She was really at that point now..really she was.

"Mr. Toussaint....." She sighed. "Go out and come back in..then greet me properly....and when you after that you'll say nothing else."

Still, as long as he wasn't going to be sent on a wild goose chase looking for a toy like in Runes, then he'd be fine. Go figure learning something sounded appealing after having almost free reign in classes. No chance of a food fight here. Not unless they transfigure dresses into food... but, that wasn't possible, was it?

Zeke claimed one of the stools and placed his bag at his feet. Weeeee.

Okay it was time to close the door. A flick of her wand shut the transfiguration door and you could hear a click as the door locked itself.

Class was about to begin.Young Mr. Rogers made it in just in time.

"Good morning Mr. Rogers."

"Good morning once again everyone and welcome to another transfiguration lesson!" The professor sat on the edge of her desk and looked over her classroom. "Some of you may or may not know that I was an interior designer/decorator in my past profession and if I may say so..I know a thing or two about fashion." Ahem.

"As you may have guessed, today we will be transforming fabric into fabulous garments but first, I'll need students to tell me The Five Principal Exceptions to Gamp's Law of Elemental Transfiguration. You don't need to get too deep, we will tie everything in, in short order."

ooc: Please do not repeat the answers if it has already been said. I will try to give everyone a chance to get some points.

Boxes were placed around with fabric inside them and mannequins were next to stools. Were they going to making dresses or something? Slightly puzzled she fixed her bag over her shoulder and smiled at the Professor. "Good morning, Professor." Hady greeted warmly wondering if she should sit down or wait for more people to arrive. For now she'd wait a moment. Did they smell that? Fresh clean air! Early mornings were the best time for lessons and here was her first student. "Good morning Miss Lynch. Take two points for being the first student here." Quote: Originally Posted by kayquilz Did all classes start this early? Oh right....some of them DID.

She didn't see anyone she knew-but was she in the mood to be friendly? No. She hoped Clara wasn't in this class...or Phoenix...they were the LAST people she wanted to see right now...maybe Connor...or Nemo or someone. Or Puck. Anyone from her Gryffindor squad would do... She yawned and rested her face on her desk...maybe she'd disappear...WHOOH. Quote: Originally Posted by Hey Ju AHEM.

"Good morning, professor Bellaire." She greeted the woman with a smile and a polite nod anyway. She was the BEST professor of the entire school, so yeah. "I'm really looking forward to today's lesson!" TRUE. "Here, my uncle sent you this!" She held out a jar of honey for the professor to take, smile still in place. The fourth year then looked at the people who had arrived before her and made a face at the Ravenclaw girl. Ugh, no way she was sitting next to HER. The ballerina rolled her eyes and went to the other side of the room. Quote: Originally Posted by Saraie Another early class? Why? Don't professors know that kids need their sleep? Really, getting up this early was only for people with jobs and old people. Or if you were just really weird and liked waking up early like this. Never the less Cinna was heading to the class. Sleeply still but ready to get the lesson started. She came on inside the classroom. "Morning, professor Bellaire." She gave her a small kind of sleepy smile as she walked by. She walked on to find a seat or stool she should say. She waved at Eden and took the stool beside her. She gave her a smile. She patted her shoulder as well. She didn't speak yet because she knew how annoying to was when people kept asking if she was okay. She did give her a hug and few seconds later. She stood next to the stool until Bellaire started the lesson. She knew better than to sit before being told to do so in this lesson.

"Good Morning Professor Bellaire", Jasmine said upon spotting the Professor. She saw her housemate Eden and headed straight for her. Finding the stool nearest Eden, she stood next to it. Then looking straight ahead, she tried to whisper discreetly. "Eden, get up. We have to be given permission before we sit in this class." Then she really looked at her housemate. She looked exhausted. Bellaire would have a field day with her if Jasmine didn't act fast. "Straighten your hair a little bit.", Jasmine said out of the side of her mouth. She was worried about Eden. This was definitely not like her. She would have to find out what was wrong after class. She dared not ask right now. Professor Bellaire's eyes trailed the student to her seat, all the while counting down from 20 in her mind. She would not turn the student into a frog..she would not turn the student into a frog..she would not.... She sat down... She would turn the student into a frog..she WOULD turn the student into a frog. She opened her mouth to blast the student into next term for her appearance and for not reading and bothering to learn her classroom rules when other students showed up as well.... "Good morning Miss Hapwood...Oh!" She took the jar of honey and her expression softened."Tell Orsino thank you and that I will send him something soon." She nodded at the girl and put the honey on her next. Now back to this disrespectful student...but first.. "Miss Bayless you will refrain from any silly hand waving or hugs in my classroom. This is not a social gathering...good morning." "Good morning Miss Guidry, I suppose it's fair to say that your fellow student owes you a big thank you for that, because she was about to spend the rest of the lesson as a frog." Quote: Originally Posted by PhoenixStar What mood would Bellaire be in today? Now, THAT was the question. AJ was still half asleep, but she put on a cheery smile anyways because she knew that this particular professor was really good about making you leave the class until you were perfect. Her uniform was clean and orderly so she should be okay. As the second year made her way in she noticed that the classroom was different. Were those mannequins? AJ was also pretty sure she saw some colored fabrics off to the side. Oh no. They weren't going to play dress up, were they? Perhaps she should have just stayed in bed. AJ would have been much warmer that way. Spotting the professor, she gave her a warm smile. "Good Morning, professor." Hadleigh was already there, and she got a smile along with a wave. The lion decided to stand by Jasmine. She knew better than to have a seat just yet. "Hey." The older girl was super nice, and AJ still had the valentine's day card that she made her last year. "Good morning Miss Valentine, as I said to a student before you, no waving." she got a look and a frown.

It wasn't like he wanted to wear it like this, he prefered the tie hanging loose and his shirt unbuttoned but he also wasn't in the mood for yet another detention. Entering the classroom, he immediately noticed the mannequins, then walked past the Professor, gave her a curt nod...which was all she got because he still wasn't much of the greetings type of person and went to stand next to a desk close by Eden who had sat down on the stool. He grinned because Ravenclaw was gonna lose some pooooiiints hehehe. Until he heard the Ravenclaw Prefect telling her to stand up. BOO! "Good morning to you too Mr. Hirase.." And that was a pointed 'you did not actually say ood morning,' good morning from the professor, because a nod of the head was certainly NOT good morning.

His hair might be a bit tidier given that Professor Bellaire disliked tardiness. Finally, he stepped into the room. "Good morning, Professor.'' A smile for the lady before Adi set off to go stand by a desk. Oh wait. There were none. Just stools and mannequins. Still, they'd have to stand by the stools, right? The Hufflepuff did just that. He could see Jasmine but she seemed busy with someone else. And AJ. HAIII, AJ. "Good morning Mr. Rehman." She looked him up and down in her usual scanning manner before following him with her eyes to the stool. Quote: Originally Posted by AmbiguouslyMe Thornton stepped into the room timidly.

Looking at the dress forms, Thornton hoisted his bag up on his shoulder and went to stand near one. Had.. this professor gone the way of Hook!steed or was this what he should expect? Poor first year. No frame of reference. Well well well.....she had another rude student on her hand but these students would soon learn that being rude got them nowhere in the world and they would certainly get nowhere in her classroom with a lack of manners.

Greeting done, she went and found a stool to stand by, hands clasped in front of her. "Good morning Miss Cooper." No hug requesting anymore. Good. Sophia was very pleased with this progress. Maybe the child was now learning boundaries. Quote: Originally Posted by Edward Penguin Pinocchio had seen another note on the board in the yellow room.

Oh well, Pinocchio followed everyone to the place where they seemed to be meeting. When he walked to the classroom, he smiled. PUPPETS! he screamed silently in his head. He looked around for a new puppetmaster, but all he saw was an unhappy looking woman. He walked up to her, still looking around for the puppetmaster. Remembering his manners, like Papa Gepetto had told him, he asked sort of quietly. Hello Ma'am. I see you have frames for the puppets. Are we going to make puppets today? I know all about puppets, even though I'm a real boy now. I don't see the puppetmaster though. Is he here? He looked rather dapper in his yellow shirt peeking out of his rather crudely made short pant overalls. (at least he thought so). What in Merlin's Beard?! Sophia folded her arms and looked at the boy. Was he out of his juvenile mind? "Don't be ridiculous Mr. Tinker. I am the only puppet master here, now go find a stool and stand next to it..." Before her mood got ruined any further. Quote: Originally Posted by Mordred Stifling a yawn, Ethan walked towards the Transfiguration classroom and straightened his tie. He wondered what was beyond the door this time. Will it be freezing like last year? Sighing, he pushed the door open and saw...err...were they going to make a dress? Good Merlin. Ethan looked around him as he entered the classroom. He too greeted the professor, "Good morning, Professor Bellaire." to make his presence known. Now, where to sit? Ah yes, far away from everybody else. Hopefully Grayson would sit by him. It'll be fun to work with the fifth year, just like the last time. Quote: Originally Posted by hermionesclone Oh jeez. Another 8am class? And this one was Transfiguration, which meant that there was no way in Merlin that he could even be a second late. He couldn't rush getting dressed either, because Bellaire had rules and whatnot about dress code and being neatly presented. And if he didn't remember it from last year, he certainly remembered it after a little incident at the feast at the beginning of the year. So, with one final collar bop and a tightening of his tie, Grayson entered the classroom. Oh jeez. Oh MAN. Was this going to be a lesson on fashion?! Shudder. If that was the case, he was SO gonna work with Phoenix. Their product might end up looking too glittery for the Slytherin's tastes but it'd end up looking freaking BRILLIANT. Oh look! Agatha was showing off. Surprise surprise. "Good morning, Professor Bellaire," he said, giving her a curt nod of his head before moving to stand by.......... Ethan! YES. GOOD company if he ever saw one. And they worked together on things last year. Bonus. "'Sup?" he said, giving the Prefect a nod AND a smile once he reached the stool next to the fourth year's. Standing. Absolutely. Quote: Originally Posted by Meizzner Dante was actually looking forward to this Transfiguration class.

They did not have heads or feet...Really Weird. "Good morning Mr. Mordaunt..Mr. Whitlock." She of course looked them up and down for any discrepancies in their uniform but found none. She did flash Grayson a frown however. "No talking Mr. Whitlock!" Quote: Originally Posted by kayquilz SPOILER!!: Cinna and Jasmine The girl simply looked up at Cinna and waved halfheartedly. She did notice, however--that no one was sitting. Was this the ARMY or something? It made her grumbly. Was she not supposed to sit yet? Probably. And this made the Ravenclaw feel MISERABLE. So she had to STAND now. Her thoughts were confirmed when Jasmine told her to stand--UGHHH. Eden sloooowly raised herself off her stool and rubbed her face. "Fiiiiine--" she whined, and she tried her best to flatten her hair. She had no energy to deal with a cranky professor. Maybe she should have used a brush this morning...maybe. Her magic was DEFINITELY going to be off today, though, because of her very down mood. Her mood had such a big affect on her magic, too...UGH. "Five points from RavenClaw Miss McGee." Quote: Originally Posted by Mordred He was still looking at his own mannequin and the stool that he claimed. Merlin, really? He can't even pick decent clothes to wear, and now they were going to attempt fashion? Well, looking at the brighter side of things, maybe he'll learn a thing or two about it, therefore, he'd look better. Transformation, Transfiguration...same thing. Ethan looked to his side and saw the person he wanted to stand by. "Hey!" Ethan greeted the older boy and gave him a pat on the back. "Thanks for the hoodie, by the way. I never got to owl you back anything..." Not even a thank you note, which was a shame because...family happened. Sigh. The glares were oh so real. Did they want to see how good she had gotten at deducting points? She really didn't mind showing off her skills and she equally didn't care about what house she was deducting them from.

He stopped outside the classroom and took a few moments to straighten himself out again, and look all neat, and then headed into the classroom, still straightening his school tie. Mannequins then... this could be interesting. Toby didn't break his stride as he headed straight for his usual spot by one of the windows, and stood behind one of the stools. "Good morning, Professor Bellaire," the Hufflepuff said politely, now fiddling incessantly with the end of his tie without even realising it as he went from smiling at the professor to glancing curiously over at those boxes. "Good morning Mr. Tempus." She watched him carefully as he made his way to his usual spot. Why was he always so twitchy? That could not be normal behaviour. She'd advise that he see the healer after.

As he took in the view of the room, he noticed mannequins and fashion fabrics. Maybe they were making some clothes? Not really up Kace's ally. He even saw his mate Ethan. He went to go stand next to his buddy. He didn't sit down unless told to do so. "Hey mate guessing we are making clothes right?" It was a simple assumption right. He was using his observation skills. "So you didn't have the decency to say good morning to your professor but you're not too shy about striking up a conversation in my class? I don't think so Mr. Lecium. Two points from Hufflepuff."

"Good morning, professor." And she even curtsied a little. EXTRA polite. Super impressive. And never sitting. "Good morning Miss Brown." Why couldn't all the students do as instructed so she didn't have to waste so much time reprimanding students? She would never not do it if it was needed, but she also valued her teaching time.

She was too sleepy to say her regular hellos to everyone, so she just gave waves. She just needed her Bay to arrive.

He found a spot over by Happygoody and her impossibly straight posture, hoping Bev would join them. Meanwhile, he surveyed the props in the room that surrounded them. Merlin. Fashion. Merlin. And now the students started pouring in, so Sophia checked her watch. The others just had a few more minutes before she would shut the door and begin her lesson. "Good morning Miss Carrington." "Good morning Miss Valentine." "Mr. Morduant..." Her eyes followed them all to their seats. Quote: Originally Posted by Govoni Yep, Gabriel was just STARING at the classroom setup....and the teacher.

Needless to say, the Gryffindor walked cautiously into the room, not only because the oversized dolls freaked her out but because she didn't think she'd like where this class was going. It seemed like it had the potential to get overly girly. Ugh. "Good morning Pofessor." No comments on anything as she stood behind her desk.

No slouches or messes in her classroom and the fourth year wasn't going to be the one called out. So after making sure he looked presentable, the Gryffindor finally made his way inside, noticing the different layout. "Hello Professor," he greeted simply before heading to an empty station, standing beside the stool until permission was given to sit. He saw Adi, AJ and Angel all already there and managed a weak smile. "Come on..hurry on in." Why were they moving in so slowly? She didn't want a back up of traffic at the door way of her classroom.

It was hard to get into too much trouble between the dorms, the Great Hall and the Transfiguration classroom anyhow, if she’d even been inclined to. Instead, she’d made sure any cat hair from Tywin was left behind, and that nobody had deigned to even think about touching her. The advantage to having had her sister here before her was that she at least knew some things, and while Lily hadn’t taken Astronomy for some reason, she had taken Transfiguration. There weren’t going to be lost any points from her now she was here. Stepping into the room, she just gave a curious sort of glance toward the setup. Obviously they were going to be doing something here. Not just a boring lecture and taking notes. There weren’t even desks to take notes on. She’d contemplated going over to a stool near Ethan, but then she’d seen Hady all by her lonesome. The prefect was practically collecting people around him, so she veered toward her dormmate. Giving Professor Bellaire a smile and another little curtsy on her way. “Good morning Professor Bellaire,” she said sweetly, before planting herself at the stool next to Hady’s and giving her fellow firstie a smile too. Not on the stool, but next to it, standing as straight and tall as her 4’11” form would let her. Even the mannequins were taller than her, but once she could climb on the stool that would go away.

She rubbed her eyes once more- it was waaay to early, considering she had been up late looking for her ruby slippers- before standing up straight and looking the lady in front of the room in the eye.

She stood next to the stool, staring at her non-ruby, non-magical shoes and began to rock back and forth on her toes, humming Somewhere Over the Rainbow almost inaudibly under her breath. This side of the rainbow was NOTHING like that song, nuh-uh. It was coooold here. And her troubles sure weren't melting like any lemon drops SHE'D ever encountered. "Good morning."

Maybe it was the fun sort of honey? That would be hilarious. Ruby gave her a saccharine little smile and put her bag down, but didn't say anything since she immediately began looking around and eyeing up the boys, trying to work out if any of the good ones were close enough to communicate with during the lesson right under Bellaire's eyes.

Gregoire knew nothing about clothing design! If only Giovanni were here from France. Then this would be perfect. Giovanni would be able to help him with this, and they would hold each others hands! That would be a happily ever after! If only there were such a thing as a happily ever after. But alas, no. That stuff only existed in fairy tales, and everyone knew fairy tales were fake. Though...Gregoire was having second thoughts about that on how some of the people around this already strange castle called Hogwarts were making it seem even more absurd. Like seriously! He's seen someone walking around playing a pipe, and calling himself the Pied Piper...so unrealistic. Gazing at the professor he said "Bonjour Professeur Bellaire. How's it going?" After he asked that, he sat at one of the stools near the middle of the room. The middle was always his favorite spot to sit. Not to close to the teacher or professors desk, but not to far in the back so he couldn't see or hear them. Right..so..a transfer..a french transfer."In this class we greet the professor by saying 'good morning' or 'good day' and we do not ask how's it going?' I am not your peer..but as it is..good morning." Quote: Originally Posted by Kaos.Doodles He was all clean, see Bellaire? See? Clean and put together and put together and tie straightened (which, by the way, ties were so not as cool as bow ties) and hair combed and at EIGHT AM too. "Good morning Professor, ma'am." Rubbing his eyes as he entered the room he quickly looked around spotting Maddie and Dot. With a wave to both of them, Kyroh was ABOUT to move over to one when he noticed the quiet older Ravenclaw being all...quiet. Huh. So instead the second year changed his direction toward him. "Hullo!!" Bright smiles for you, cause you were one of his peoples! "Good morning Mr.Scabior." What was he doing and where was he going? She liked him, he ought to keep it that way. "This is not a social session Mr. Scabior. No talking." Quote: Originally Posted by ArianaBlack So many early classes this term. WHY. Zander was starting to fall behind on his sleep. All these early wakeups, you know? And he still had to get up in time to eat breakfast so this was just a recipe for disaster. Speaking of disaster, as he walked into the classroom he was pretty much praying that there wouldn't be another Tornado... Or snowstorm for that matter. Why did the bad things always involve Professor Bellaire's classroom? Anyways, though in a sleepy state, the Gryffindor still noticed the strange set up of the classroom today. What was with the mannequins? After eyeing them for a couple of seconds, he shrugged and smiled at Professor Bellaire. Normally, he'd skip the smile on an early morning such as this one. But uh, Professor Bellaire might get angry. "Morning, Professor," and now we wait.

She found a station next to Penelope and headed for that station and stood there. She flashed a smile at Penelope, curious as to what the lesson was going to entail. Dun Dun Dun.... Only two minutes remaining until the closing of the classroom door. People were really cutting it close her but lucky for them, they were still on time. "Good morning Miss Adair..Miss Montgomery." They both received a nod of the head from her. Quote: Originally Posted by lemon Unlike the people who had crossed Bellaire, Dima didn't have a thing against the professor.

And Dima got to be the bouncer, which got her EXTRA bonus points in the second year's book. "Hi Professor Bellaire! he greeted cheerfully as he entered the room, his appearance pristine as he knew she would mind if it wasn't. Upon looking around, he barely took in the mannequins and fabric, instead locating his friends at... huh. Three different spots in the room. Which just meant Dima had to find a fourth. The girl who threw VEGGIES at him in Astronomy caught his eye first, as well as that girl he'd seen around Grayson a lot. This was a good time to make NEW FRIENDS, right? Of course it was. "Hi! I'm Dima!" Hi ladies, HIII. They were gonna be BFFs. Sophia was just about to face palm. She was really at that point now..really she was. "Mr. Toussaint....." She sighed. "Go out and come back in..then greet me properly....and when you after that you'll say nothing else." Quote: Originally Posted by Hera Transfiguration!!!!! This was going to be exciting, or so he thought until he entered the class and saw mannequins and fabric stuff. "Morning, Professor," Zeke greeted her in passing. Changing one thing into another, COOL.. dress making stuff... not so cool. This was going to be a girly lesson, wasn't it? Still, as long as he wasn't going to be sent on a wild goose chase looking for a toy like in Runes, then he'd be fine. Go figure learning something sounded appealing after having almost free reign in classes. No chance of a food fight here. Not unless they transfigure dresses into food... but, that wasn't possible, was it? Zeke claimed one of the stools and placed his bag at his feet. Weeeee. Okay it was time to close the door. A flick of her wand shut the transfiguration door and you could hear a click as the door locked itself. Class was about to begin.Young Mr. Rogers made it in just in time. "Good morning Mr. Rogers." "Good morning once again everyone and welcome to another transfiguration lesson!" The professor sat on the edge of her desk and looked over her classroom. "Some of you may or may not know that I was an interior designer/decorator in my past profession and if I may say so..I know a thing or two about fashion." Ahem. "As you may have guessed, today we will be transforming fabric into fabulous garments but first, I'll need students to tell me The Five Principal Exceptions to Gamp's Law of Elemental Transfiguration. You don't need to get too deep, we will tie everything in, in short order." ooc: Please do not repeat the answers if it has already been said. I will try to give everyone a chance to get some points. __________________ ...Throw me to the wolves and I'll return leading the pack... Last edited by Davvy_Wavvy; 10-15-2014 at 02:57 PM.
