 please title your post with which floor you want to start on! Professor Pink | Mrs. Bruce Wayne | I'm on a Goat | Glitterpuff | Dumbledore's Defense Squad | BHB
Alright, well, she'd waited around enough and if the others hadn't showed by now.... maybe they would come in once Anastasia got the club going.
The Headmistress stepped up to the front of the room and cleared her throat importantly. "Welcome, welcome, everyone, to the first-ever meeting of the Hogwarts Cartographer Club." She paused to beam around at the assembled students, and her smile slowly began to falter as she noticed a few unruly ones. Were those two Gryffindors SITTING ON each other?! Hold BOLD. And RUDE. Annie made swiping motions at the pair (Aegis and Puck). They'd better get their own cushions if they knew what was good for them.
Anyway. "Yes, this is a club for making maps. Have you ever wandered the third-floor corridor, confused as to what all the rooms REALLY are? Ever stumbled upon a spare office and considered its purpose? Did you know that there were once secret passageways to Hogsmeade, and even the Shrieking Shack?" Well, DID THEY KNOW?
"This year, I am pleased to announce that Hogwarts will be entering into a dynamic, groundbreaking, long-term project with an esteemed cartographer. Although our school has been around for THOUSANDS of years, there is much that we don't know about it." They hadn't even known about an enchanted fairy-tale book sitting in the dusty library all those years. "Those of you present at this meeting will have the opportunity to CONTRIBUTE to our mapmaking project, which will be published at the end of the year after all our efforts have been documented. I hope that you will stick with the club as we begin exploring our school and discovering all that it has to offer."
The Headmistress was again smiling at them all and now gestured for the Charms professor to come to the front of the room. "Professor Quigley and I... amongst other staff... will be overseeing your efforts. My plan is to start with the Dungeons, the Kitchens, this Ground Floor, and the first floor in the next month. And then we'll move on from there."
SO. "Let's go ahead and split into groups; one corner for the Dungeons, one for the Kitchens, one for the Ground Floor, and one for the First Floor, please. Then we will begin exploring."
