Especially with his students. So, the man was all too happy when the topic of this joint lesson had turned to something that was anything but love. Thank you, Tiara.
Speaking of Tiara, the Defence Professor had headed into the classroom with a box of items, just in time to see the woman stepping back from the box she had. "Hello, Tiara. I see you've got things sorted?" he said, nodding at the box that'd been set up. More than anything else, it looked like a box on display, which made the man smirk ever so slightly. "The students are going to like this, I bet." As for his own box, he set that down on Tiara's desk, silently hoping she didn't mind. It was for the lesson, after all.
Was there anything else? No?
Casting a quick glance at his watch, the man stood back and resumed his signature pose of crossing his feet at his ankles and looking, well, cool. They should be trickling in any..... time......... now.......
Ah, there was the man of the hour! " Yes indeed, the main exhibit is ready to go. I see you have the other items. I think that is everything." She noted his wry smile and couldn't help but return it. " Definitely. They always did when I was a student, and I see no reason for that to change. This is a fascinating topic!" And just plain fun, which helped a great deal.
Holding back a laugh at the man's pose - for there was no other word for it - she elected to merely stand as usual and wait for the inevitable rush of students. Text Cut: Echo Quote:

Shrugging off the feeling Echo entered the classroom, smiling at both professors. "Hello Professors" keep the smile don't let them know that you are nervous.
Making her way to an open desk she sat down and started to pick at her robes.
And there was the first one! " Hello, Miss Duchannes. Any seat you would like," she said, indicating the completely empty room. Text Cut: Azura Quote:

Whatever it was. She seemed more like her old self.
"Hello Professor Tanner, Professor Hirsch! " The teen called as she made her way into the classroom. "How are you? " She asked as she settled into her desk.
Echo was closely followed by a young Ravenclaw. " Welcome, Miss Kennedy. I am just splendid today, thank you for asking." And by the look in Azura's eyes, so was she. Tiara never inquired so close to Valentine's Day as a rule. Text Cut: Esme Quote:

Even though she was confident in her abilities there was a little bit of self-doubt going on. Not like she was arrogant or anything; she knew very well what the limits of her abilities were and she was perfectly fine with it. Hopefully this lesson would be fun.
"Hello, Professors," she said with a small smile. She waved at both Echo and Azura and took a seat. She was ready to go.
In came the first badger. " Hello, Miss Darcy," she said while returning the girl's smile. Was the sister right behind? Text Cut: Juno Quote:

She smiled and waved at Echo and Azura before heading over to a seat near her sister. Hopefully they could help each other.
Tiara could tell that Juno was nervous as soon as he walked through the door." Welcome, Miss Darcy. Today will be a fun lesson," she said, hoping to put the girl a bit more at ease. Text Cut: Fiyero Quote:
Originally Posted by MadMadamMalfoy Fiyero was really looking forward to this lesson. Curse breaking sounded interesting! He just hoped he wouldn't be as terrible at it as he was at Arithmancy...
He walked into the Arithmancy classroom, giving both of the professors a friendly wave. "Hello, Professor Hirsch and Professor Tanner," he greeted them with a small smile. He took a seat toward the middle of the room, close enough to see what was going on but not close enough to look like a teacher's pet. After arranging his supplies, he looked attentively back at the professors, awaiting the start of class. Bring it on, curse breaking!
She almost missed Fiyero's greeting because she was busy returning Mister Song's wave. " Hello, Mister Jones," she said belatedly as the boy was already past her. Oh well. Text Cut: Hadley Quote:

She drew her wand.
Practiced making a circle like she was targeting something. Unboxed a particular memory and leapt into the classroom.
"Expecto Patronum!"
Not even a flash of silver greeted them. "Dang it! I thought I had it that time." Yep, Sir Knight, she was still practicing. Hadley curtsied to Professor Hirsch, "Sir Knight." Then turned to Professor Tanner and gave her a wave. "Hi, Professor." With that she selected a seat at random and made her way to it, giving waves to Jaemin, Echo, Azura, and...er...which one was Esme? She couldn't tell really so both twins got a wave.
And with that, the red headed teen spun into her seat and started pulling out her quill and ink and Arithmancy parchment that was more filled with ink doodles than math. She was in a gret mood today for whatever reason. Not gonna question it.
Well, that was quite the entrance! Obviously it was for Hirsch's benefit, because Hadley had never done anything like that in Arithmancy before. " Hello, Miss Denaker," she said, still a bit surprised at the display. Text Cut: Daxton Quote:

Hirsch.
Daxton was dubious about this joint lesson. Arithmancy usually meant no spellwork, whereas Defence Against the Dark Arts more often than not focused solely on magic. The former subject was undoubtedly going to be ruined by the presence of the latter, despite the fact that, in theory, he liked both.
Barefoot and without his outer robes, as he invariably was, Daxton entered the Arithmancy classroom. A moment's glance told him that Hirsch was already here, with Tanner, a revelation that earned nothing less than the sourest, most suspicious glare that Daxton could muster, right in the direction of the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor. Tanner escaped any such treatment. Without a word, predictably enough, Daxton took the seat nearest the door for quick and easy access to the exit, and waited...
... and tried not to think about how it was seeming more and more likely that he might soon have to approach Hirsch in the pursuit of information.
Tiara wasn't surprised to not be greeted by Daxton. That was par for the course. But she was very much surprised by the reception that Hirsch received. She glanced at Roderik, not sure what to make of such a display. If Tiara were still officially involved with Ravenclaw house, she would be having a conversation - of sorts - with Daxton about it.

Basically, February was the best month of the year. So Rula was in quite a good mood when she entered the Arithmancy and DADA lesson.
It being a lesson with Handsome Hirsch might have also helped her good mood too.
"Hi, Professors!" She greeted them with a smile. The boxes got a brief glance before she went and slipped into a random empty seat.
" Miss Botros! Welcome to class," she greeted, happy to see someone that wasn't glaring before class even began. Text Cut: Kaycee Quote:
Originally Posted by LilFox06 How cool was this? How often did one get to cursebreak in school? Kaycee was actually kind of excited for the lesson. "Hello Professors." she greeted with a grin.
Were they ready? She was ready.
She took her seat and waited for the class to begin.
Tiara smiled at the next entrant as well. " Hello, Prefect Richards. Any seat is fine." Text Cut: Brooklyn Quote:
Originally Posted by SilverTiger As far as Brooklyn was concerned, February was just another month. And that had nothing to do with certain situations that were still frustrating her. She’d just never understood why people felt the need to be all lovey-dovey in the month of February in the first place. It just seemed stupid, and she didn’t do stupid. She’d leave that for everyone else. Besides, if any class should be free of that, it should be DADA, AND Arithmancy. She figured neither subject would be very apt to devolve into sappiness, and that was what had gotten her to walk up to the Arithmancy classroom. Besides, cursebreaking seemed more interesting than the confusing analysis and everything else that Arithmancy usually entailed.
Plus, even if it didn’t, she could just stick with Professor Hirsch and hope that he’d be more logical. Or something along those lines. Maybe they could learn more defense stuff. It was those thoughts that were in her mind as she’d entered the classroom. “Hello Professor Hirsch. Professor Tanner,” she said, giving them both a nod as she made her way to a seat. So far there didn’t seem to be many people there yet who entirely annoyed her, which meant no one she was trying to avoid. It was promising, to say the least.
Tiara returned Brooklyn's nod as she entered. " Welcome, Miss Andrews." Text Cut: Olivia Quote:
Originally Posted by Govoni Okay, so.....Liv wasn't a fan of numbers.

COMPELLED, I tell you!
Getting her princess on, smol blonde sashayed into the classroom, looking around at once for Prince Erik. EEEEEP. AND THE RUMORS WERE TRUE! There he was....looking so casually cool and handsome. Her mum had told her to use adjectives like "handsome" instead of "hot" because "hot" wasn't as substantial, or something. Apparently it was more mature to be "handsome", so......
AH! SONG [Ameh]! Hai, tea buddy!
Taking a seat next to the boy with the white blonde hair, Olivia BEAMED. "We match today. You don't mind if I sit with you, do you?"....because she was probably going to, anyway. Just so he understood his situation. F r i e n d s i e s!
ALSO. #Dramatics! "HAI, professors. You both look well! Especially you, Prince Erik." Cue some pretty eyelash batting. You know, since she'd thought to wear eye makeup today and her lashes felt really silky and long. It was fun to flutter them when they were mascara'd.
Tiara's eyebrows went up upon Olivia's arrival. She didn't even return the greeting. She merely just gave a quizzical look to Roderik, trying as hard as she could not to burst out laughing. Text Cut: Charlotte Quote:
Originally Posted by Tegz There was a box. There was a box on a stool. There was a box on a stool and Charlotte Kettleburn was twitching with her hands carefully behind her back.
There was something about unlabeled and mysterious boxes and trunks and crates and anything really, which her Gryffindor self just couldn't resist. Curiously, she crept closer and eyeballed it, her initial excitement for a curse-breaking class was completely forgotten because WHAT WAS IN THE BOOOOX!!!!???!
" I would not get much closer if I were you, Miss Kettleburn," Tiara warned. Not that anything too terrible would happen. But.. why give away the surprise early? Text Cut: Rebecca Quote:
Originally Posted by DuckyLinJi A joint lesson between Aritmancy, a class she did not took so she hoped she didn’t fail too much. And Defence class. Which she obviously knew since that was a mandatory one. Rebecca was curious to find out what this lesson would be about so she left the dormitory a little bit early to find her way to the arithmancy classroom.
Getting lost at least 4 times , probably more but she was too stubborn to tell the real number , the Gryffindor found a classroom door open and she peeked inside. A woman was standing near the fire. Someone she had seen while eating at the Great Hall but had never spoken too. She knew she was in the right place though because she soon saw Professor Hirsch and she beamed at him.
“Hi professor Hirsch!” she waved at him and once again wondered how anyone could look so cool just standing there. She had to try it sometimes. “Hi Professor” …something…. She did not know her name. “I’m Rebecca Meadows, but everyone calls me Bec so I guess you can choose. No wait, Professors usually call me Miss Meadows which I guess is a rule here but anyways, I’m a first year and I don’t take your class so I’m sorry if I don’t get any of it” Clearing her throat because she knew she was rambling, the Gryffindor pretended to be cool like Hirsch and crossed her own feet at her ankles. Which didn’t go well because a second later she flailed her arms to keep steady. “I’mma sit down now, yes…”
And without another word , the not cool Gryffindor found a seat to sit next to Fiyero without asking him if it was okay. Cause she was cool like that. not
A new face entered next. And before Tiara could ask her colleague about the girl, the Gryffindor was saving Tiara the effort. " Tanner," she supplied. " I will probably just stick with Miss Meadows, you are correct," she affirmed. " And no need to worry, there will be plenty of students who are not up on their Arithmancy. Feel free to ask if you need help," she finished with an encouraging smile. Text Cut: Niomi Quote:
Originally Posted by PhoenixWizard Niomi hasn't been to a joint Arithmancy and DADA class before. This should be interesting. When arriving at the area Niomi said, "Hi Professors!" She was extremely happy today, and for no reason. With a happy Niomi, this class lesson should go good. She went to take a seat but before she did she saw boxes.
WHAT WAS INSIDE?!
Niomi was extra suspicious now. She was ready to start class this second.
" Ah, Miss Kelly, welcome to class. Sit anywhere you want," she said, indicating the now half-full room. Text Cut: Hady Quote:
Originally Posted by Kolyander When noticing the joint lesson between Arithmancy and DADA one could not help but wonder how that would work out. She had gotten an 'A' on her OWL in Arithmancy last term, it was a lesson she had just recently dropped as well. Did she had to have it combined with one of the lessons she really enjoyed? If she failed the days activities it could only be blamed on one thing. Numbers and the simple fact that she couldn't get things right when it came to them.
Pushing her long brunette hair back behind her ears Hadleigh entered the room. "Hello Professors," she greeted with a light smile her eyes falling upon both Professors at the front of the room. Another quick glance around had the girl quickly selecting an empty seat somewhere nearer to the center of the room.
Tiara had been sad to see Hady drop the class, but she understood. It happened every year, and not everyone was as passionate about the subject as herself. " Welcome, Miss Lynch. It is very good to see you in my classroom again," she said with a warm smile. Text Cut: Tenacius Quote:
Originally Posted by Steelsheen Arithmancy and Defense. Not exactly the kind of subjects that would typically hold a joint class. But the board did say cursebreaking and Tenacius got himself on his cruiser and zoooomed to class.
By the time he was there though there's quite a number of students already present. Seems like he's not the only excited one for this lesson "'Elo Professor Tanner, Professor Hirsch!" the Curly Top greeted them brightly. He plopped himself next to Haddie, gave her his usual cheesy grin and propped his feet under the chair in front of him. This is gonna be an interesting class to say the least.
True to his name, Tenacius appeared ready to go for this lesson. " Hello, Mister Salander! Take a seat, we are almost ready to begin." Text Cut: Zeke Quote:
Originally Posted by Hera His two favourite subjects in one? Heck yes!
Zeke was too thrilled for this lesson to get under way, like, it was super promising. Sporting a wide grin the sixth year entered the class offering both Professor's a polite nod of the head and a "Hello Professor Tanner, Professor Hirsch." He was so glad to see you both, yes yes.
Taking a seat, Zeke took out his things and waited for the lesson to begin, his eyes occasionally peaking toward the box.
Tiara tried not to play favorites, but if she was honest with herself, one of hers had just walked in. " Mister Browne," she said warmly, " good to see you. Please take a seat."
