Lana quietly made her way toward the stables and the first Care of Magical Creatures lesson. She really wasn't sure what to expect. It wasn't like she had paid much attention the previous years, but she did feel like it was time to make more of an effort though. What harm would come of her applying herself more anyway? Maybe she could actually retain what she was supposed to.

As she approached the stables, she glanced around. There didn't seem to be too many people there yet, which she was okay with considering how well she did with large groups of people and all. Seeing her own housemates there, she at least knew she was in the right spot; at alone was reassuring for her. Seeing a cozy seat, she set her things down and looked around. Wasn't it normal for the professor to be there?

There was the chalkboard and beside it, Grise the coati. Blinking as she watched Beezus interact with the coati, Lana shrugged. She had expected to see Professor Newlin, but again she reasoned with herself that she was just early and had beat the crowd. Of course, they had to be in the night place. Where else would the lesson be held?
