Being away from the barn as he was, William did not hear the second year complaining about drawing, and even if he had, she would not have received much sympathy from him.

Hem hem.

SPOILER!!: My Lovely Colleagues

He lent up against the wall and crossed his arms over his chest. Well he was here now, rather reluctantly, he may as well stay and watch the event unfold.

Glancing down at the students seated in front of him, Oliver peeked at some of their drawings. Merlin! Some of these kids could do with some art lessons. Well there was one young girl's (Nerida) which looked pretty good. "I like your picture." he told her in a whisper. He didn't know if that smile on her face was still going to be there later though. But he didn't say that.

With one that had finished their drawing.

Spotting Daichi nearby she walked over and crouched down next to him. "Mister Katharos," she whispered in greeting. "That's a very....fire filled drawing. Nice." Was the fire that big? It didn't seem so to her, but... Daichi seemed a little nervous. "Are you alright?"

When they arrived, Professor Elwood opened the door and entered, still chuckling about some joke Medea made, mostly because it just sounded funny coming from her, she froze. Whoops. The place was full of students already working.

They were late it seemed.

Putting a finger to her lips looking back at Medea, the Divination Professor walked further into the room and stopped by the back of the place, waving smally to Willy. Now she wondered what was going to happen here?

Was that an egg?

Looking around at all the students and their drawings was actually pretty neat. Some of them had done a very good job others....well their effort was apparent. But there wasn't just students in here, two other Professors were present besides the Care of Magical Creatures one. Callie waved politely at them both, wondering if she should go and say hi or if they should spread out and watch the kids.

But she wasn't in this lesson, she was just hear to observe and have fun hopefully.

Although, during their short journey, Medea started trying her hand at a few jokes she'd heard from her travels. The latest about something to do with a a ghost and cooking dessert. Apparently 'booberry pie' was funnier than she'd thought it'd be. Either that or Professor Elwood was just being nice. Speaking of Professor Elwood...

Medea had to stop before running into her. What? Was the area too crowded? Eyebrows raising a little, she took note of the silence gesture and slowly made her way inside after the divination professor. Oh. Students hard at work...drawing? Lots of silence, and lots of talent from what she could see. She gave a guilty smile to a few and stood to the side before looking around. Smiling to the two other professors who showed up, Oliver and Isabelle, she turned her attention where the magical creatures Professor was and smiled to him too.

SO, William. What was in the cauldron!?

So that was why he a was out on the grounds, in a long black cloak and scarf around his neck. Slipping behind most of the students, close to Oliver his eyes wandered over to the only real light, the fire from the fireplace....with a cauldron and....

...was that what he thought it was?

Really, Scabior just blinked. This was William Williamson he was talking about. What seemed to be inside the heated cauldron really shouldn't surprise him...though it did.

He wouldn't admit it.

When William DID return from....wherever he'd gone, he was carrying one pail with sand in it and one pail with some sort of thick, smelly, reddish liquid in it. The students in the front row would probably cover their noses at the smell but Willy, having made it hundreds of times, was immune to its stench.

Once he had set his materials down and had tossed the damp sand on the fire, he suited up in his long, dark, thick fireproof dragonhide gloves, quite proud that he'd remembered to put on fireproof EVERYTHING when he'd gotten dressed this morning.

Carefully, very, very carefully, the professor removed the cauldron from the heat source and set it down on the ground, still a ways away from his captive (?) audience. He then picked up a giant pair of tongs from behind the cauldron and took the egg out from it, carefully setting it down on the ground between the cauldron and the first row of students. That done, he removed his gloves and tucked them into the back pocket of his pants, then walked away again and came back with a simple cardboard box.

"All righty then, those of you who are still finishing up your drawings, feel free to do so. Those of you who are finished, sit tight for a just a moment. We'll resume in a second."

Then he went over to Callie and Medea, who were both looking to be in a rather good humor, and both of whom would helpfully assist him with what he asked of them. After a hurried, whispered conversation, Willy then went over to the guys and Isabelle.

"Thanks for coming, Olly, Isabelle, and....." he was surprised to see this one, "Dash." William nodded at them all. "If you guys want to er, conjure up chairs or stools or something, that'd be cool. Please just keep your eyes and ears on the egg and your uh, wands at the ready. I'm just gonna..." he gestured toward the front of the room.

Finish class. Yeah. That.

On his way back to the cauldron and the egg, William stopped by the Hufflepuff who had apparently been trying to get his attention earlier.

"Uh, well, Laura, if you don't want to draw, then you don't have to." He shrugged. "Homework and participation is always optional, you know, it's just up to you whether or not you want to pass or fail."

He smirked a bit and then continued on to the front of the room. Why was this child even ASKING about drawing? Even from his vantage point at the front, he could see plenty of drawings that were hardly of professional quality. She shouldn't feel alone, honestly, all artists start somewhere!

--------------------------------

Now back by the cauldron and the quivering egg, which seemed to be quaking as if under great pressure. William started laying out a few other eggs from his box, lining them all up from biggest to smallest behind HIS egg. He laid out a big, but not BIGBIG, ostrich egg, then a regular chicken egg, then a tiny, foil-wrapped chocolate candy egg.

Taking a step back, the professor beamed around at the class and clasped his hands loosely behind his back. "Welcome to Care of Magical Creatures. Heh. I have to say, from the drawings I've seen, you ALL have a bright future as magizoologists one day." He smiled and took a step to the side so that everyone could clearly see the eggs.

"First things first: What in Merlin's beard did I just have you draw? Take a guess, based on the size comparisons of MY egg to these other eggs. Try to be as specific as possible with your educated guess."

OOC: don't tell me WHY you think the egg is whatever it is, just tell me WHAT you think it is. ;-)
