Default Joint HoM and MS Lesson 3: The International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy

It’s the very last day in April and it was a brilliant day out. Your Professors- Newton and K Stewart- have taken the time to plan a joint lesson that they hope you will enjoy and know you will find quite useful. Though it was being held in Professor Rose’s classroom, Professor Kay was there at the door to greet all of you as you enter. Rose was sitting at her desk, waiting to say hello as well.

Go on and take a seat anywhere you like! The room was rather airy as Professor Newton had every single window open. Just don’t doze off thanks to the good weather should you choose to sit next to one. Professor Stewart would be most displeased.

What shall today’s lessons be about? Written on the board before the room is “MAGIC IS MIGHT. Or is it?’’ You may want to ponder upon this statement while you wait for things to get started.

Lesson's Progression:
What do you know about the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy?
Some clarification
Explanation of the Statute of Secrecy
Tell us about Carlotta Pinkstone or your opinion about the Statute
Information about Carlotta and your opinions!
Activity time!
Final part of the activity!


OOC: Welcome, everyone! Chatter is okay but just do not go overboard. Remember to read the rules for both Professors Newton and Stewart before posting. Also keep in mind that SS rules apply! Whit will get started in 24 hours! THE LESSON HAS STARTED!!

Kitty was very interested for this lesson. It was being held by her two favorite professors on her two favorite subjects and she was insanely curious as to what the subject would be.

"Hello Professor Stewart, how are you?" said Kitty with a smile as she walked past Kay at the door. It was a nice day, wasn't it?

She sat down at the front row and read the message on the board. "Hello Professor Newton," she said as she mentally wondered if they were about to have a super interesting debate about magic.

Heading into the classroom, Noelle looked around at how different it would be considering it was a joint class. It was rare but she was one of the early ones in class this time. Hmm.

"Hey Kitty" She said waving at her fellow prefect. She went in further and perched herself at one of the desks before looking at the board. Huh. Magic is might... or is it? What did that mean?

"Good morning professors" She said before pulling a few things out to get ready for class.

Kyle made his way into the classroom and waved to the professors and students already there. He was lousy at History, but great in Muggle Studies. How in the world were the two going to fit together? How could they learn about muggles in a history of magic class? It didn't make any sense! But if anyone could fit them together, it would certainly be the professors. He went and sat next to one of the windows and laid his head on the desk while he waited for class to start. But he wasn't going to fall asleep! NOPE!!

It was like the two WORST classes in the entire world got together and had a baby.

Like WHO WANTED THIS?????

Literally no one asked for this. NO ONE.

Unless someone DID ask for this. In which case, when Zoryn found out which of her classmates it was, she was gonna personally see to it that they never had another idea ever again. This was the WORST day of her ENTIRE life!!!! WHY WOULD THE PROFESSORS DO THIS TO HER??????? She already had to take both of the classes individually. WASN'T THAT ENOUGH PAIN TO GO THROUGH????????????????????????

The second year had a VERY intense displeased look on her face as she walked into the classroom and chose a seat RIGHT by the window as far away from the front of the room.

If magic was might then Zoryn Spinnet wouldn't have to be here. And that was the real answer to the ambiguous board question.

Joint History of Magic and Muggle Studies lesson.

Just a mite confusing since one was all about magical history and the other stuck to being non-magical right done to the writing utensils allowed. Not that Cassie thought muggle and magic couldn’t coexist just that it was an interesting combo of subjects in her mind as she made her way to the History of Magic classroom. “Good morning, Professor Stewart,” she greeted the woman whom was the first she met at the door. And a “Good day, Professor Newton,” followed as she stepped inside the room and took in the other woman at her desk.

Also interesting was the quote on the board. “Magic is…might,” she read quietly as she moved to take a seat. Hadn’t she read that from somewhere? The Ravenclaw mulled over the words as she set out her supplies, trying to think on them and what they had to do with...OH!

"Are we talking about the Second Wizarding World today, Professors?" she asked curiously.

A JOINT lesson? Why yes, Olivia thought very much so!

Be-bopping into the History of Magic classroom, in a pretty great mood (and on some strong headache potions), the blonde smiled to those already assembled. She also tugged the earbuds out, having decided to keep them in until she got to class. All the chatter in the corridors echoed off the stone walls and reverberated in her skull. So, it was just best to block that all out. Never mind that it was a dangerous practice. Gryffindor, remember?

Anyway, the lion!lady was excited for a join lesson...and was hoping that she could actually participate in the magic for the day. It was NOT fun having to sit out on the sidelines.

Oh, goddess, and the quote written out on the chalkboard... This wasn't going to be a lesson that got her fired up, was it? Bless her head. "Professor Stewart......Professor Newton." Both subjects she enjoyed. And one's mostly without magic. So, she was excited.

The idea of a joint lesson definitely seemed interesting to Stasya, especially since she was pretty certain after things like the pet party that the professors were friends. Plus, she was curious how Muggle studies was going to fit into History of Magic. Unless they were going to be talking about persecution, which definitely wasn’t on her top ten list of favorite subjects. But, she definitely liked both Professor Stewart and Professor Newton, so she had walked up to the History of Magic classroom with a smile on her face. Besides, there was lots to be happy about so she didn’t see why she should pretend not to be happy. At least, she didn’t think so until she’d gotten to the classroom and saw what was written on the board. That definitely sounded like a persecution thing.

“G’morning Professor Newton, g’morning Professor Stewart,” she said, still giving both professors a grin even though she was way more hesitant about if she was going to like this lesson. Still, she’d walked further into the classroom, claiming the seat right next to Liv even though she’d also given Noelle, Zoryn and even Kyle over by the window waves. Was he actually asleep?

“Hi Liv,” she said a little bit quieter than she’d greeted the professors. Plus, she got a big grin before the twelve-year-old had gone back to eyeing the words on the board.

Combined classes could be fun but they also sometimes mixed boring and slightly less boring subjects together. Or boring and interesting, which diluted the interesting... so. Katy was here and hoping for the best, but she was a realist. She might regret not taking some Pepper-Up before coming to class today.

"Good day, Professor and Professor." And the windows were open and it was a beeeeeeautiful day. Katy picked a chair right in the front and waved merrily at the professors. And then she saw the message on the board. Oh, mood killer. Mood killer right there. Magic is might was all kinds of loaded.

A joint class. Well at least putting History of Magic and Muggle Studies together seemed like a good combination. Shayla reached the classroom and was greeted right away. "Hello Professor Stewart", she said cheerfully. Then noticing her other co-teacher, Shay acknowledged her too. "Hello Professor Newton", she added with a smile.

With her eye on the nearest empty seat, Shay headed toward it. On the way she gave a wave to her Gryffindor housemate. "Hey Ava". Shay sat down in her seat and retrieved her needed supplies from her book bag. Pen, notebook, textbooks. Check, check and check. Then she finally turned to look at the board. "MAGIC IS MIGHT. Or is it? With a puzzled look, she tried to figure out what the statement meant. How would this relate to their lesson? She guessed she would have the answer soon.

A joint lesson would be interesting, to say the least. Etta made her way to the classroom, feeling unusually happy and cheerful. It was just one of those days. And she was early to class too, which was a relief. A small smile on her face, she entered the room and greeted the professors first as her smile widened to a grin. "Hello, professors. Hope you're both doing well today."

She made her way to an empty seat near the middle of the classroom and sat down, noticing the words written on the board. Magic is might. Her smile faded as she tried to figure out what they'd actually be learning today. Uh.

Ava didn't mind muggle studies, but history of magic?

Yawn.

Why on earth these two subjects collaborated today?

She didn't history of magic AT ALL. Mostly on this class the Gryffindor would end up doing something to distract herself or just skipped it. She wanted to skip it but muggle studies was such a fun class and not attending it was kind of big miss (sort of). Nevertheless, Ava decided to attend it and hopefully she would not fall asleep in this clasroom. Hence why she had a big tumbler of coffee on her hand. "Professors," She slightly greeted both of them and decided to take a seat at the corner.

"Uh, hi Shay." She greeted her fellow lioness and back to sipping the caffeine liquid. Errrrrr... this was too bitter.

History of Magic, check. Muggle Studies, check. Putting together, well it was seemingly obvious on what the topic would be.. But History itself was difficult to predict on which part they would be going over, it was a mystery at this point to Kirk. He arrived in the classroom, not tired for one, but not enthusiastic, just feeling.. Kirky. If that could be a word, "Heylo Professor Stewart." He greeted first as she was by the door before seeing the History teacher, "Heylo Professor Newton."

Now Kirk could choose a spot to sit. Somewhere near the window, he felt like letting the sun hit him as he stared at the board. MAGIC IS MIGHT. Or is it? He thought about his girlfriend making it in today.. It felt weird not being around Mel lately with her being sick, but he didn't mind getting her homework for her again incase today was no exception. He sighed lightly before turning to the nearest familiar face, ah, Etta. It had been a while since they spoke, "What do you think they'll have us do today?" There were a number of possibilities after all.

The potions had finally worked…that, and maybe it was more getting a potion from Healer Reed? Mel hadn’t had the time to really tell everyone she was going to be there but here she was. Practically RUNNING to the joint History of Magic and Muggle studies lesson…did it matter if she had to talk a lot?

Her voice well…it wasn’t really BACK but she’d gotten the okay to go to class. That was good…she wanted to do well for Gryffindor…and well for OWLs really. Sure, she liked that Kirk and Tenacius had been providing her with notes and homework but really…really, she wanted to be a part of it. To learn, to be there in the classroom interacting with everyone.

Mel looked up at the Professors and smiled – beamed really. Did she need a sign to say I’m not contagious – I just lost my voice because apparently that was all that had happened…she’d had one of those teeeeeeerrrible spring colds. Spring colds were the worst kind of colds they always seemed to hit her much stronger than any other cold ever…and this one, this one had hit her HARD to the point where she had just hidden out in the common room with cups upon cups of tea.

”Hey Kirk” she practically whispered, then turning to look at Etta Mel just grinned. Etta was cool – really, hello she was obviously cool she was Owlie’s bestie and Owlie was amaaaaazing. ”Hey Etta!” Mel grinned and looked around for other familiar faces. Everytime her eyes flicked to someone she knew she’d give them a small smile hello. Where was Lacy?

That nickname would stick forever…yep, he would never live that boat-party-massacre down…sure it wasn’t a massacre but it was sooooooooooo awkward – Hitchcock level awkward. ”Hello Professor Stewart, Professor Newton” she smiled brightly at the two of them her voice was low and timid as she spoke. Glancing over to Kirk she smiled ”I got the okay to go to classes – the rest helped…thanks for giving me notes and homework for classes” she smiled at him happily…right had she told him she was coming today? Probably not.

Muggle Studies was a subject Rula found really interesting - even if she wasn't the greatest at it - but History of Magic...well, it wasn't her least favorite subject, at least. So this joint lesson would still be interesting probably!

"Hi, Professor Stewart and Professor Newton!" she greeted them with a bright smile, also pleased to note the open windows. It was finally getting warmer out there, so letting in the fresh air was definitely welcome.

As she took a seat near a window, she finally noticed the writing on the board. Hmmm, well that was a good clue about what their lesson was going to be about today. Definitely interesting.

If you ask Skylar, they should have done a joint lesson with one of the subjects that took place in the towers. And had the lesson take place down on the first floor, because then she for once wouldn't have to walk so far. She was rather intrigued though as to how History of Magic and Muggle Studies could be combined and it was so lucky that she liked Professor Newton's man person, because that reflected on her liking and trusting Newton. Even if Newton's lesson were usually drama induced. K Stewart, she was indifferent about, but her lessons were usually interesting.

Magic is might. The fourth year took note of the board upon entering the classroom. Well, if that wasn't a statement that would produce conflict? So much for hoping for a drama-free lesson. "Hello Professor Newton. Professor Stewart." She greeted, taking a seat near the back. She wanted a full view of the classroom, should drama unfold.

This would be interesting. Emmeline sometimes liked both of these subjects, depending on what each particular lesson was about. They could be super boring or super interesting or somewhere in the middle. She was learning all about grey areas, uh huh. But the truth was that she would have come to this lesson even if it was on the history of flobberworms in the muggle word, 'cause Professor Stewart was teaching it. Since the other Professor Stewart had become her guardian a couple weeks ago, she figured she should support anyone in her new family. Plus, Professor Newton was super nice too.

"Hiii professors," she chirped as she passed them. Loads of people got smiles and waves, especially Mel, Zoryn, Miss Noelle, Miss Ava, and allll the other people she knew. Except Stasya and Miss Olivia 'cause she slid into the seat on Stasya's free side and shot both girls a grin. She was about to say hi when the sentence on the board snagged her attention and she shuddered. She was not a fan of the whole "magic is might" thing, nope. She really hoped nobody else was either, 'cause it sounded like the dumb "wizards are better than muggles" idea and that was scary.

Another joint Muggle Studies and History of Magic class? Hmm, that was rather interesting. And it was a good thing that it was being held at the History of Magic classroom, which was situated on the first floor. It was nearer the common room so Vivian was taking this opportunity to drag herself into class since there weren't much stairs involved.

Skipping into the classroom, Vivian poked her head inside and beamed at the Muggle Studies professor who was at the door. "Good day, Professor Stewart!" The blonde greeted the woman, then her eyes drifted over to the other professor. She, too, received a wide grin from the Slytherin. "Good day as well, Professor Newton!" Yup, she was in rather good spirits today. Wasn't this Fairfield child always in a bright mood?

Then she went over to flop on the seat beside Skylar. Also, aaahhhhh wasn't it cool today? Fresh air everywhere!

astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf

Derf was having an IT'S ABOUT TIME moment with this whole joint lesson thing. There had been loads of overlap or like...the POTENTIAL for it but you know. He was running just a little late and came skidding to a stop in the classroom after his wind spring down the corridor. "H-H-Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii...profes-s-sooooors," he huffed and puffed while using the sleeve of his robe to wipe his brown clean. Bright blues went to the board and read the words there. Well, that kinda left little to the imagination, yeah? Domination of muggles by the wizarding world? No thanks.

Chipper mood turned somber by the potential discussion ahead, Derf slipped into the nearest seat and hugged his enchanted suitcase to himself - chin resting on the handle - with an uncomfortable pout on his face.

Was there seriously ANYONE in this room who...believed in the ideal that that expression represented?

"Hello Professors," Junia Botros greeted as she entered the classroom and gave her usual curtsy. The good weather had everything to do with her good mood and the smile she wore was genuine as she moved to find a seat.

Ru. The brunette spotted her older sister almost immediately in the crowded room and headed right for her. She was graduating soon, Rula was. On to bigger and better things and LEAVING Junia here to live up to the legacy the HEAD GIRL had left behind. NO PRESSURE or anything right?

Merlin.

"Hi." She wasn't going to bother the older girl or anything, she just wanted to be close while she still COULD be. There was something comforting about having your big sis around, after all. Particularly when you were going to be discussing such a dark part of history...

She sat down at the front row and read the message on the board. "Hello Professor Newton," she said as she mentally wondered if they were about to have a super interesting debate about magic.


Looked like they had their first arrival and it was the Ravenclaw Prefect. Rosalyn sent Kitty a smile. "Good morning, Miss Valentine."

SPOILER!!: Noelle :)

"Good morning professors" She said before pulling a few things out to get ready for class.


And right behind her was another Prefect! "Hello, Miss Summers," Rosalyn said as she watched the girl take a seat and glance at the board. All would be revealed soon enough!

SPOILER!!: Kyle :)

He went and sat next to one of the windows and laid his head on the desk while he waited for class to start. But he wasn't going to fall asleep! NOPE!!


"Good morning, Mr Erikson." Rosalyn watched the boy take a seat in silence before laying his head on the desk. Looked like someone was feeling tired this morning, but that was to be expected given the early hour that she held lessons. Hopefully he wouldn't fall asleep.

SPOILER!!: Zoryn :)

Like WHO WANTED THIS?????

Literally no one asked for this. NO ONE.

Unless someone DID ask for this. In which case, when Zoryn found out which of her classmates it was, she was gonna personally see to it that they never had another idea ever again. This was the WORST day of her ENTIRE life!!!! WHY WOULD THE PROFESSORS DO THIS TO HER??????? She already had to take both of the classes individually. WASN'T THAT ENOUGH PAIN TO GO THROUGH????????????????????????

The second year had a VERY intense displeased look on her face as she walked into the classroom and chose a seat RIGHT by the window as far away from the front of the room.

If magic was might then Zoryn Spinnet wouldn't have to be here. And that was the real answer to the ambiguous board question.


Someone clearly wasn't pleased to be here. Rosalyn looked at Zoryn curiously as she entered the classroom and took a seat way at the back. No greeting either. Someone didn't seem too keen on the idea of this joint lesson, but it was no matter because this would still go well; she was excited to do this with Kay. "Hello, Miss Spinnet."

SPOILER!!: Cassandra :)

Just a mite confusing since one was all about magical history and the other stuck to being non-magical right done to the writing utensils allowed. Not that Cassie thought muggle and magic couldn’t coexist just that it was an interesting combo of subjects in her mind as she made her way to the History of Magic classroom. “Good morning, Professor Stewart,” she greeted the woman whom was the first she met at the door. And a “Good day, Professor Newton,” followed as she stepped inside the room and took in the other woman at her desk.

Also interesting was the quote on the board. “Magic is…might,” she read quietly as she moved to take a seat. Hadn’t she read that from somewhere? The Ravenclaw mulled over the words as she set out her supplies, trying to think on them and what they had to do with...OH!

"Are we talking about the Second Wizarding World today, Professors?" she asked curiously.


"Morning, Miss McNally." Rosalyn sent the girl a smile, pleased that she had remembered to greet them AND had taken a try at guessing what the lesson was about. "Good guess. You shall see for yourself soon enough." Hopefully they would enjoy the lesson.

SPOILER!!: Olivia :)

Be-bopping into the History of Magic classroom, in a pretty great mood (and on some strong headache potions), the blonde smiled to those already assembled. She also tugged the earbuds out, having decided to keep them in until she got to class. All the chatter in the corridors echoed off the stone walls and reverberated in her skull. So, it was just best to block that all out. Never mind that it was a dangerous practice. Gryffindor, remember?

Anyway, the lion!lady was excited for a join lesson...and was hoping that she could actually participate in the magic for the day. It was NOT fun having to sit out on the sidelines.

Oh, goddess, and the quote written out on the chalkboard... This wasn't going to be a lesson that got her fired up, was it? Bless her head. "Professor Stewart......Professor Newton." Both subjects she enjoyed. And one's mostly without magic. So, she was excited.


It was nice to see Olivia in a good mood! The girl seemed rather excited for today's lesson and that was always a good thing to see. "Morning, Miss Phillips!" Yes, Rosalyn was definitely excited about this too.

SPOILER!!: Stasya :)

But, she definitely liked both Professor Stewart and Professor Newton, so she had walked up to the History of Magic classroom with a smile on her face. Besides, there was lots to be happy about so she didn’t see why she should pretend not to be happy. At least, she didn’t think so until she’d gotten to the classroom and saw what was written on the board. That definitely sounded like a persecution thing.

“G’morning Professor Newton, g’morning Professor Stewart,” she said, still giving both professors a grin even though she was way more hesitant about if she was going to like this lesson. Still, she’d walked further into the classroom, claiming the seat right next to Liv even though she’d also given Noelle, Zoryn and even Kyle over by the window waves. Was he actually asleep?

“Hi Liv,” she said a little bit quieter than she’d greeted the professors. Plus, she got a big grin before the twelve-year-old had gone back to eyeing the words on the board.


And there was another happy person coming in immediately after Olivia. "Good morning, Miss Dalgaard-Volkova." Rosalyn returned the smile as she watched her take a seat.

SPOILER!!: Katherine :)

Katy was here and hoping for the best, but she was a realist. She might regret not taking some Pepper-Up before coming to class today.

"Good day, Professor and Professor." And the windows were open and it was a beeeeeeautiful day. Katy picked a chair right in the front and waved merrily at the professors. And then she saw the message on the board. Oh, mood killer. Mood killer right there. Magic is might was all kinds of loaded.


"Good day to you too, Miss Toussaint!" Rosalyn said pleasantly returning the greeting. They were having rather the good turn out so far and that was wonderful. Soon enough they would need to get started, though there was still some time for more students to arrive without penalty.

SPOILER!!: Shayla :)

"Hello Professor Stewart", she said cheerfully. Then noticing her other co-teacher, Shay acknowledged her too. "Hello Professor Newton", she added with a smile.

With her eye on the nearest empty seat, Shay headed toward it. On the way she gave a wave to her Gryffindor housemate. "Hey Ava". Shay sat down in her seat and retrieved her needed supplies from her book bag. Pen, notebook, textbooks. Check, check and check. Then she finally turned to look at the board. "MAGIC IS MIGHT. Or is it? With a puzzled look, she tried to figure out what the statement meant. How would this relate to their lesson? She guessed she would have the answer soon.


Another cheerful student! That always made Rosalyn happy especially because she understood that a lot of people found her subject boring and was used to a lack of enthusiasm. "Hello, Miss Morrison," she replied pleasantly as she watched the girl take a seat and glace at the board.

SPOILER!!: Henrietta :)

And she was early to class too, which was a relief. A small smile on her face, she entered the room and greeted the professors first as her smile widened to a grin. "Hello, professors. Hope you're both doing well today."

She made her way to an empty seat near the middle of the classroom and sat down, noticing the words written on the board. Magic is might. Her smile faded as she tried to figure out what they'd actually be learning today. Uh.


A happy Hufflepuff!! At least happy until she glanced at what had been written on the board. Oh dear. Well, everything would be addressed soon. "Hello, Miss Kramer. I am doing well, thank you, and hope that you are too." Smile.

SPOILER!!: Ava :)

Yawn.

Why on earth these two subjects collaborated today?

She didn't history of magic AT ALL. Mostly on this class the Gryffindor would end up doing something to distract herself or just skipped it. She wanted to skip it but muggle studies was such a fun class and not attending it was kind of big miss (sort of). Nevertheless, Ava decided to attend it and hopefully she would not fall asleep in this clasroom. Hence why she had a big tumbler of coffee on her hand. "Professors," She slightly greeted both of them and decided to take a seat at the corner.

"Uh, hi Shay." She greeted her fellow lioness and back to sipping the caffeine liquid. Errrrrr... this was too bitter.


Unfortunately the next arrival didn't seem as pleasant as the ones that came before her. That was totally fine though! Just so long as Ava didn't fall asleep. Judging by that tumbler which might be filled with coffee that hopefully wouldn't happen. "Morning, Miss Burton," Rosalyn said cheerfully.

SPOILER!!: Kirk :)

But History itself was difficult to predict on which part they would be going over, it was a mystery at this point to Kirk. He arrived in the classroom, not tired for one, but not enthusiastic, just feeling.. Kirky. If that could be a word, "Heylo Professor Stewart." He greeted first as she was by the door before seeing the History teacher, "Heylo Professor Newton."

Now Kirk could choose a spot to sit. Somewhere near the window, he felt like letting the sun hit him as he stared at the board. MAGIC IS MIGHT. Or is it? He thought about his girlfriend making it in today.. It felt weird not being around Mel lately with her being sick, but he didn't mind getting her homework for her again incase today was no exception. He sighed lightly before turning to the nearest familiar face, ah, Etta. It had been a while since they spoke, "What do you think they'll have us do today?" There were a number of possibilities after all.


"Morning, Mr Forsfelle." Rosalyn smiled as she watched him take a seat and ask Miss Kramer what the lesson would be about.

SPOILER!!: Melbourne :)

Her voice well…it wasn’t really BACK but she’d gotten the okay to go to class. That was good…she wanted to do well for Gryffindor…and well for OWLs really. Sure, she liked that Kirk and Tenacius had been providing her with notes and homework but really…really, she wanted to be a part of it. To learn, to be there in the classroom interacting with everyone.

Mel looked up at the Professors and smiled – beamed really. Did she need a sign to say I’m not contagious – I just lost my voice because apparently that was all that had happened…she’d had one of those teeeeeeerrrible spring colds. Spring colds were the worst kind of colds they always seemed to hit her much stronger than any other cold ever…and this one, this one had hit her HARD to the point where she had just hidden out in the common room with cups upon cups of tea.

”Hey Kirk” she practically whispered, then turning to look at Etta Mel just grinned. Etta was cool – really, hello she was obviously cool she was Owlie’s bestie and Owlie was amaaaaazing. ”Hey Etta!” Mel grinned and looked around for other familiar faces. Everytime her eyes flicked to someone she knew she’d give them a small smile hello. Where was Lacy?

That nickname would stick forever…yep, he would never live that boat-party-massacre down…sure it wasn’t a massacre but it was sooooooooooo awkward – Hitchcock level awkward. ”Hello Professor Stewart, Professor Newton” she smiled brightly at the two of them her voice was low and timid as she spoke. Glancing over to Kirk she smiled ”I got the okay to go to classes – the rest helped…thanks for giving me notes and homework for classes” she smiled at him happily…right had she told him she was coming today? Probably not.


Oh, There was Melbourne! Rosalyn was pleased to see the girl up and about again after being sick. It was wonderful what magic could do for healing. Muggles just didn't have it as easy when it came to this stuff; they had to rely on pills and soup. Though soup was pretty wonderful. "Morning, Miss Sorin-Ward! I am happy to see that you are doing better now."

SPOILER!!: Rula :)

"Hi, Professor Stewart and Professor Newton!" she greeted them with a bright smile, also pleased to note the open windows. It was finally getting warmer out there, so letting in the fresh air was definitely welcome.

As she took a seat near a window, she finally noticed the writing on the board. Hmmm, well that was a good clue about what their lesson was going to be about today. Definitely interesting.


"Morning, Miss Botros!" Rosalyn said giving the Head Girl a pleasant greeting. In a few more minutes the lesson would begin. After glancing at her watch, she turned her attention back to the door.

SPOILER!!: Skylar :)

Even if Newton's lesson were usually drama induced. K Stewart, she was indifferent about, but her lessons were usually interesting.

Magic is might. The fourth year took note of the board upon entering the classroom. Well, if that wasn't a statement that would produce conflict? So much for hoping for a drama-free lesson. "Hello Professor Newton. Professor Stewart." She greeted, taking a seat near the back. She wanted a full view of the classroom, should drama unfold.


Was it her or did Skylar seem a bit hesitant after glancing at what was written on the board? "Hello, Miss Diggory!" A smile was sent towards her.

SPOILER!!: Emmeline :)

But the truth was that she would have come to this lesson even if it was on the history of flobberworms in the muggle word, 'cause Professor Stewart was teaching it. Since the other Professor Stewart had become her guardian a couple weeks ago, she figured she should support anyone in her new family. Plus, Professor Newton was super nice too.

"Hiii professors," she chirped as she passed them. Loads of people got smiles and waves, especially Mel, Zoryn, Miss Noelle, Miss Ava, and allll the other people she knew. Except Stasya and Miss Olivia 'cause she slid into the seat on Stasya's free side and shot both girls a grin. She was about to say hi when the sentence on the board snagged her attention and she shuddered. She was not a fan of the whole "magic is might" thing, nope. She really hoped nobody else was either, 'cause it sounded like the dumb "wizards are better than muggles" idea and that was scary.


It was nice to see Emmeline in such good spirits, but then that was to be expected given the turn of events that had unfolded for her. Really she couldn't be in better hands than Cami and it warmed her heart. "Hello, Miss Sparkes!"

SPOILER!!: Vivian :)

It was nearer the common room so Vivian was taking this opportunity to drag herself into class since there weren't much stairs involved.

Skipping into the classroom, Vivian poked her head inside and beamed at the Muggle Studies professor who was at the door. "Good day, Professor Stewart!" The blonde greeted the woman, then her eyes drifted over to the other professor. She, too, received a wide grin from the Slytherin. "Good day as well, Professor Newton!" Yup, she was in rather good spirits today. Wasn't this Fairfield child always in a bright mood?

Then she went over to flop on the seat beside Skylar. Also, aaahhhhh wasn't it cool today? Fresh air everywhere!


Oh, wow. Look at Vivian! Such a happy girl. It made Rosalyn even happier to see her students in such a good mood. Really she was usually cheerful. "Good day to you too, Miss Fairfield," she said as she returned the smile.

SPOILER!!: Derfael :)

"H-H-Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii...profes-s-sooooors," he huffed and puffed while using the sleeve of his robe to wipe his brown clean. Bright blues went to the board and read the words there. Well, that kinda left little to the imagination, yeah? Domination of muggles by the wizarding world? No thanks.

Chipper mood turned somber by the potential discussion ahead, Derf slipped into the nearest seat and hugged his enchanted suitcase to himself - chin resting on the handle - with an uncomfortable pout on his face.

Was there seriously ANYONE in this room who...believed in the ideal that that expression represented?


Annnnnnd it was about time to begin! There should only be one or two stragglers left at this point. One of which was an obviously out of breath Derfael. "Morning, Mr Ashburry-Hawthorne." Oh goodness. Looked like he wasn't thrilled at what had been written on the board.

SPOILER!!: Junia :)

Here was the last arrival. And a smile and curtsy as well! How wonderful. "Hello, Miss Botros!" Rosalyn said pleasantly as she watched her take a seat. It was time for them to begin!

Once they were sure that there were no stragglers and the door had been closed, Rosalyn got ready to address the class. She would be starting things off and then Kaysha would be continuing. Hopefully everything would be smooth sailing, though of course they were prepared for the possibility of things not going incredibly well. This was an important topic, however, and one that she DID enjoy talking about and one that she was happy to cover with her friend.

"Morning, everyone! Both me and Professor Stewart are happy to see you all in class today. I am sure that you have seen what is written on the board." As she spoke, she gestured to the words 'MAGIC IS MIGHT'. While loaded, there WAS a reason why this brief motto for the Ministry of Magic had been written down. "Starting off, I would like for you to tell us what you know about the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy. Anything at all." Even if they only had a basic understanding of it, every bit of information was important. They wanted to know how aware the students were when it came to this topic.


OOC: Hello everyone! Me and Alicia are happy to see you all in class! As Rosalyn said, we want to know how much your character knows about the Statute of Secrecy. Any answer is fine even if it's something small! We will continue the lesson in 24 hours from now. Please note that any arrivals from now on will result in points loss, so it's better to just pretend that you have been here for the entire time.

"Hey Noelle," she said, smiling at her co-prefect. They weren't able to talk anymore after that because the class had began.

Kitty's mouth hung open. They were literally talking about the Statute! She'd been waiting for this moment for years, and now it was fabulously brought up by her two fav professors.

For a moment, the Goth felt like she couldn't breathe, it was just too much to take in. But then her hand snapped into the air and she began blurting things out.

"The Statute was established by the magical community centuries ago as a way to defend against witch burnings. At that time, Muggles feared magical people, so I suppose it made sense at the time to establish some way to avoid conflict. Basically the Statute forbid the Wizarding community from interacting magically with the Muggles, and in some extreme cases like in America, we were forbidden to even marry or have friendships with non-magical people. Under the Statute, magical people must suppress their true selves while in the presence of Muggles. We are even forbidden from sharing our advances in health with them, which I find to be EXTRODINARILY cruel. The Statute invariably leads us to think in terms of us vs. them. This has led to misplaced fear and hatred. I don't think monsters like Grindleward or Voldemort would have become nearly as popular as they were if the Statute hadn't been there to reinforce in people's minds that Muggles are to be feared. It is my view that the Statute be repealed."

She closed her eyes and waited for the rebukes of her classmates.

Dude. Whatever that badge-head was saying was putting Zoryn to SLEEP. Like uh, YAAAWWWWWWWN. Of course Zoryn Spinnet was trying VERY hard not to fall asleep 'cause last time she almost did, Professor Muggle Studies took away points. And despite the fact that Zoryn didn't care all that much about points, it still made her angry. 'Cause she didn't even technically do anything wrong!!!! She hadn't fallen asleep and that was the whole POINT.

So instead of ignoring the question like she wanted to, she raised her hand. To show that she was participating. Mhm. "We can't do magic in front of muggles," basically that was it. "And whatever she said," nodding to Kitty.

Mhm. Was that good? Was the lesson over already? THIS WAS TORTURE.

Uh oh, the first question of the day was about the Statute of Secrecy. Emmeline wished that Jessa was here again to tell Miss Ravenclaw Prefect just how wrong she was, but since she wasn't, Emmeline figured she might have to try. Except she couldn't really pay attention to Miss Ravenclaw Prefect's whole bit of talking, 'cause it was way too many words. Like almost teacher-length amount of words. She did catch the end of the prefect's rant though, and that seemed like maybe the most important bit?

Turning to Miss Ravenclaw Prefect, she frowned and replied: "But, Miss Prefect, those wizards didn't FEAR Muggles. They hated them and saw them as like like cockroaches or something icky. And there are STILL wizards and witches who think like that today." She remembered to raise her hand a bit too late -- oops -- and addressed the next words to the professors too: "The statue of secrecy is to protect Muggles from US just as much as it is to protect us from them. Besides, Muggles would probably still be super scared of us if they knew we existed." I mean, if she had been born with noooo magic at all, and then learned that there were people who could do like anything with magic? That would be super scary for her, mhm. Which is what led to the Burning Times in the first place, wasn't it? She was sure there was a way to help with Muggle healing and such without going as far as Miss Ravenclaw Prefect wanted to. Emmeline had no idea how they could do that, but then she was only a first year. There were loads and loads of grown ups who should find the best solution ever for this problem, yup.

It was no surprise that Kitty was the first one to speak up when the question was asked; Rosalyn hadn't expected anything different knowing how passionate the girl was when it came to this topic. Even if she didn't agree with her on repealing the Statute, it was nice to see how driven she was and how she stuck to it even if people opposed to her. It was rather admirable.

"Okay, wonderful job so far guys. Just please try to keep things to simple facts for now though. We don't want to start another heated debate like what happened in the lesson on House Founders." Feeling had been hurt and there had been a detention served. "This is an important part of our history and something that SHOULD be discussed, but let's not get heated." Just putting a stop to things before people started getting carried away. "Of course any further discussion about repealing the statute can be had later on after the lesson if anyone desires." She sent a smile towards Kay. Hopefully that should do the trick. It was nice to talk about these things, but not during class and not when fights started.
