It was true then. Older people's bones become more brittle and that is the reason Grandmum Tole walks around with a cane.
It helps her walk and she likes to hit Destiny people over the head with it. Destiny couldn't wait until she got a cane of her own.
Dragging her VERY tired feet into the classroom, she spotted Professor Hadley instead of whatshisname. Sweet Merlin, this lesson better not have anything to do with numbers! "Hello, Professor!" she wheezed at greeted the woman as she continued to drag her VERY tired feet to the empty seat next to Evelyn.
Hiiiiiii, Evelyn! Quote:

"Hello Professor Hadley." K-Lee said. She was confused, but might as well go with the flow. Something was definitely up. She quickly sat down on a seat in the middle of the classroom. More stragglers... figured they were Slytherins; as they had to come all the way from like the bottom-most level so she supposed she didn't blame them from running behind. "Hello Destiny. K-Lee." Hadley said, wishing she'd brought a water bottle with her ... HMM... Doesn't Antares keep any glasses up here?! She could at least then conjure some water for thirsty self. Quote:

Astronomy?" This was weird. It was like seeing an unlikely apparition of a dead person.
His usual seat would be in front but this time could be the best time to seat near the back. And so he tottered toward the back of the classroom, and jammed himself into one of the seat of the last row.
He was lounging... lounging on his seat. The seat in the back was comfortable, you know. It was far from people's scrutinizing gazes and he couldn't be seen being a little bit jittery about the sight of Professor Hadley in the Astronomy tower. Cedric eyed this Gryffindor boy who JUST told them that they should leave. Really? Maan, he would be sorry if Professor Hadley break down and cry because they boycott her class! "We should all give Professor Hadley a chance. A chance would never hurt." Cedric uttered, authoritatively. Hmm ... what?! If one more student asked that, then she was seriously gonna through a gasket!! Seriously; if she wasn't teaching Astronomy, she wouldn't have climbed the stairs!! So why so surprised?! Pfft... and you're a prefect too, Leone. "Yes, yes." She said, still rummaging through the drawers in Antares' desk. "Good morning." Quote:

The door was open and she trotted through, giving a quick greeting to the professor. " Hello Professor, "She said, her demeanor calm...for the moment. The moment she spotted Lulu and Greer, she sort of forgot a sense of propriety and scrambled over, shoving herself into a seat nearest to them.
Janie's mouth opened wide in preparation for her usual greeting but at the last moment she remembered they were in a classroom, so she sounded a bit awkward. " HE--hey," She began and then trailed off as she watched Greer staring at that BOY. Casting a worried glance at Lulu, she then stared down Greer. " Just what are you doing wavingathimheisaboydon'tyouknowthattheyaretheenemy ?!?!" All of this was delivered in a quick whisper, with a stare puncuating the sentence.
DID GREER NOT GET IT? Another new girl ... well not new, but new to Hadley, since she didn't take Arithmancy. But clearly the triage she didn't know all knew each other; they had probably all planned accordingly to purposefully avoid her classes. Well fine then. "Hello," she said in greeting. At least this one and the first were polite. Figures the second one was a Slytherin. All they needed now was a Hufflepuff to their group. Quote:

He stopped in his tracks as he spotted Professor Hadley there in the classroom instead of the professor he was used to teaching the rather heady subject. "Uh, hello Professor Hadley," he greeted politely pushing the thoughts as to why she was there instead before moving to take a seat. Quote:

Mmhm. Especially the latter, you know, being all the way on the bottom floor and making it up to one of the lessons in the tower. Quote:

His eyes fell upon the teacher up at the front of the class. Wait...this wasn't right. "Er...is this a dream?" Legend asked loudly. He was used to mixed classes or whatever but not the wrong Professor teaching a class. "Hadley you can't teach Astronomy. You teach Arthimancy. Stars and...numbers...too different things. You are probably rubbish at this. We should all just leave." Um what ... !?!
Legend Chosen. Just because YOU don't want to be in lessons doesn't mean anyone else feels the same way?! Seriously.
Thank goodness for your older housemate to speak up before we did... Quote:

What was he doing? The kid had guts and skill, but he was definitely misplacing his guts. "Arthimancy and Astronomy have numerical correlation." Now sit. Please? He liked the kid. He didn't want to see him in detention. Quote:

Legend shrugged and made his way over to an empty seat. There had been a boy who had said something about giving Hadley a chance, but Legend had basically ignored him. He wasn't NOT giving her a chance! He was simply voicing his opinion. "Honestly though Professor. If you let us all go you'd get a free day too. No one would tell on you."
Free Day. COME ON! "What Mr Dakest said is correct. Both subjects have a few correlations, and whilst Arithmancy is one of my specialties, that does not make me incompetent to teach another subject." Hadley said, using her stern voice that basically was saying, 'Quiet, Chosen, or else you AND your house will be sorry'. "There will be no 'free day', Mr Chosen, however, if you don't wish to partake in today's lesson then go. I'm not stopping you and your last name does have the word chose in it." She stared at him, as if daring him to say something to contradict her. "But if you choose to stay, please, settle into a chair so we can begin." Yup. The start of the lesson remained on you, Legend Chosen. And no, if you don't sit, we're still starting the lesson.
