"Good morning everyone! Welcome to the first Herbology lesson of the term," she started, smiling at all the fresh faces. She pulled her robes a little tighter around her. Unlike the other greenhouses this one was enchanted to stay at a crisp cool temperature, perfect for toadstools.
"As you have all gathered, today we are looking at toadstools, now before we start looking at the ones behind me..." she indicated to the patches of toadstools behind her, "... who can tell me what a toadstool is?"
"Hands up please... and if I don't already know you're name just introduce yourself first please." They would know if she knew them or not... right?
With a swift swish of her wand the Blackboard rubbed out the previous message, and a new one appeared on its surface.
Why was it so cold!?
Daphne shivered a little as the professor started talking about toadstools. Hm. She'd heard of them before, hadn't she? But..she didn't remember much..bleh.
Daphne raised her hand hesitantly and said,
"Um. A Toadstool is a poisonous mushroom that has an umbrella shaped cap.." And, that's all she knew.
Oh! She had to introduce herself.
"..and I'm Daphne Green, a sixth year Hufflepuff." She continued, with a small smile.
Brr.
