"This is Ancient Runes." he said, glancing between the three first years. "And class is about to start so go and take a seat." Oliver pointed at the Slytherin kid (Theodore). "You didn't ask permission to climb the tree. I have a very good reason to take points from you right now. Unless you can convince me otherwise."
With a wry smile on his lips, Professor Jenkins walked up to the front of the room and cleared his throat once again. "Hello everyone and welcome to Ancient Runes. My name is Professor Oliver Jenkins and I will be hopefully helping you to understand the runes better this term."
He took out his wand and conjured up a chair for him to sit in. "Now who can tell me what they know about the Runes? No text book answers please. Just what you think you know or may have heard about them."

Theodore shuffled rigorously and jumped down from the tree, looking as if someone just murdered him on the spot. "
I...I... I'M VERY SORRY." He said quickly, then looked over to West as he defended him. Dude, that guy was COOL. Bowing his head down slightly in embarrassment, Theo took a seat next to West as class began.
He didn't know what Runes were. Hadn't a clue. So he hushed.
The alphabet. WELL.... Theodore knew his alphabet! YAAAY. The boy cheered up a bit, glad that he was on the same page as everyone else. But Elder Futhark?
Raising his hand, Theo tried, bless him... "
It's the Runic alphabet... which has different looking letters to our alphabet. But it's still the same, right?" Ohhhhhhhh. Merlin, he hoped he was right. Otherwise this professor might mark him for life as being an idiot.
