Those of you who were at Hogwarts last term know me as the school healer and formerly your Ancient Runes professor," for those of them who happened to take that particular subject. "You may call me Healer Beryl, or Professor Beryl depending on your preference and depending on the context." It was just easier to call her healer when she was healing, wasn't it? "Welcome everyone to Beauxbatons." Sort of anyway. "We're very lucky to have a greenhouse space for ourselves - please note that does not mean you can't access the main greenhouses, you are welcome to, but this is our workspace for the term." And they didn't have to share it - it was off limits for the Beauxbatons students. "If you want to access the upper levels of the greenhouses, or the basement level, you need the appropriate key or go with someone who has one. I only have a limited number so please come and see me if you have a request." That was the first item on her mental list. "Beauxbatons has expansive grounds, and they are very rightfully proud of the beautiful gardens here. Please be respectful of the plants. It should go without saying, but you are expected to be on your best behaviour. Do not try to pick any of the flowers," Especially the headmistress's roses, "and make sure you leave the gardens as you found them - clean and tidy, so that everyone can continue to enjoy them." She looked around at everyone to make sure they were paying attention. All good? Well, now she could begin the fun stuff. "We will come back to the herbs and plants in front of you in a little while- which you should not be touching," or trying to lick, "It is important to be respectful of the plants and aware that herbology can be dangerous. Plants can be poisonous, and the magical ones may have some unusual effects. Please use your common sense, and keep safety in mind at all times, and remember, as I am your healer, you won't be able to lie to me about how you got yourself poisoned, bespelled, or attacked by a plant." She would KNOW. "Now, I'm sure most of you noticed the outside area we have and how it is currently looking a little bare," Aside from the piles of soil here and there and wood and stone and other things, "I'd like you to stay in your seats but turn around and have a look and imagine a garden out there, what it might look like. What garden designs have you seen? How do you think the layout or the shapes of a garden effects the plants within it? What things should be kept in mind when designing a magical garden? Lets brainstorm together."
And she waited for their answers. ooc: woo sorry for the delay! Also I forgot to make a rules thread because.... I just did. So I edited the herbo rules into here. You should read those.
From now on anyone arriving will be considered as late. You can post your character answering the questions as if they have been here all along. There's no wrong answers, so feel free to be creative (or not, depending on your charrie). We will move on in approximately 24 hours. Freyr closed his eyes trying to imagine his mother's garden, full of beautiful flowers among which Freyr loved to sit and read books since he was little. From her mother's attempts to teach him about the plants, he remembered molies, asphodels and orchids. He imagined a dove made out of these flowers. Maybe they could be enchanted in a way that dove looked like flying. Freyr knew that he would definitely love to sit in this garden and read. He wondered if the dove would leave the same effect on others too or if the shape was created a bit wrong, would its effect complete opposite. After a couple of minutes wondering whether he should raise his hand and explain his idea or be quiet, he decided to raise his hand to ask his questions and explain his design. He was a lot more relaxed, what could go wrong, after all?
