She turned to face the class, as if nothing had happened.

"Welcome to the Defense Against the Dark Arts course. I'm Sarani Glass, and I will be your Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. If you could all take turns to tell me your names, years and, if you've chosen to pursue Defense at NEWT level, the reason you've decided to do so."


OOC: The lesson has now STARTED. Please don't RP your characters arriving late. If YOU are joining the class just now, pretend that your charrie was there all along. =)

Valerie couldn't help but let out a quiet gasp as Professor Glass entered the room. Immediately, the image of a big black scary dragon came to mind. Black robes, and spiked heels. Like big black wings and intimidating claws. Valerie was terrified of this woman before she had even heard her speak.

Terror quickly turned to anger as Professor Glass docked 30 points from Gryffindor. 30 points! Then Professor Glass decided to face the class again and Valerie went back to being terrified. This was not a good start to the class. She'd been so excited for Defense Against the Dark Arts but it seemed like Valerie would be too busy being very intimidated of her professor to actually pay attention.

Valerie visibly paled when Professor Glass asked the class to introduce themselves and say whether they were taking the class at newt level. Valerie had no idea what to say, weren't newts animals? Valerie forced herself to take a few deep breaths. This was stupid, she would have no reason to be terrified of Professor Glass if she just made a decent first impression. Which meant no shaking or stuttering or anything of the like. It didn't seem like Professor Glass would tolerate that sort of thing.

So when it got to her turn to speak, Valerie faced Professor Glass with a slight frown and a defiant jut of her chin.
"I'm Valerie Aimée Knight. First year." Valerie almost let out a loud 'YES' as she realised she got the words out in a clear even tone.

Unfortunately, the same couldn't be said for the rest of her introduction. "I-I I don't know. Um, w-what do you mean by newts, e-exactly?" She hoped she wouldn't get points taken away for not knowing.
