"Good day, Mr. Anders. Glad you like them," replied Tapio. Hmm, this one was looking rather tired today--ah, the upcoming O.W.L.S., no doubt.

SPOILER!!: Lisa Nam

"Very well, thank you, Miss Nam. Yes, it is a rather nice day--I think spring is on its way." Though not before another spring storm or two, Tapio suspected.

SPOILER!!: Mercer Branxton

"Sorry, Mr. Branxton, this is class, not a party, so I'm afraid there's no cake this time," replied Tapio. Hmm, he hoped the boy would pull up that hat before heading out among the hedgerows; however, Tapio did not like to draw attention to it by saying something in front of the class, lest it cause embarrassment.[/b]

SPOILER!!: Victoria Geller

"Good day, Miss Geller. Try to save some energy for class," Tapio remarked, somewhat disappointed to see the girl already exhausted from the walk down to the hedges. Maybe Hogwarts needed some sort of physical fitness program.

SPOILER!!: Summer Valentine

"Good day, Miss Valentine, welcome to class," Tapio greeted her.

SPOILER!!: Atlas Flamsteed

Approaching the group, Atlas even managed a polite smile towards the professor. He had never been RUDE to the man, but change was hard for him sometimes and the comfort and safety net of family teaching a subject you were rubbish at being ripped out from under you was a lot to deal with at times. "Hello, professor," he even greeted...

"Hello, Mr. Flamsteed," Tapio replied politely. Atlas was not his best student, but Tapio could see he was really trying, which was really all one could do.

SPOILER!!: Ashley Fox

I like your hat." She scanned the place and decided to chill with Lisa. (Ash secretly thought of her as a little sister). "I can't wait to see what we're doing today." She'd been a little down recently, but today was beautiful. And as she'd told an older student, there was no reason to feel sad when hanging out with plants.

"Hello, Miss Fox. Thanks you, my wife knitted it for me for Christmas and I'm rather fond of it," Tapio greeted her.

SPOILER!!: Desiree Marchand

Professor Devires sort of reminded her of the Beast, big and intimidating-looking but good inside. “Hi, Professor,” she greeted, noticing the interesting pattern on his sweater. “I like your sweater.”

"Good day, Miss Marchand, thank you," Tapio replied, a bit surprised that his wardrobe today was getting so much attention--he did not really think of himself as much of a dresser. If he had realized how many students would be expecting a party after seeing his streamers, he might have thought twice before using them.

SPOILER!!: Jacoby Rivers

He hadn't caused a big prank like the Weasly's yet. Sighing he kept going as he approached noticing streamers. "Hello professor" He said dutifully.

"Hello, Mr. Rivers, welcome to class," Tapio replied.

SPOILER!!: Kinsay James

Tapio nodded back to Miss Rivers, who seemed unusually listless today. Perhaps she just did not enjoy having class outdoors. However, Tapio resolved to keep an eye on her in case she looked like she was becoming ill.

Glancing around, Tapio saw that nearly everyone appeared to be there, so he stood up straight, cleared his throat, and began class. "Hello, everyone, and thank you for join us on this nice, brisk spring day. Today I've asked you to come out on the grounds for a special reason. But before we get to that, I want to ask you to look at these images and see if you can identify any of these plants." And with a wave of his wand, the cloth covering the posterboard flew up and, folding itself in midair, landed neatly beside the base of the tree; meanwhile the board on the easel has been revealed to the class.

SPOILER!!: The Posterboard

[OOC: So, now have your character try to identify one of the plants, correctly or incorrectly, as the case may be. Points do not necessarily depend on accuracy and creativity is greatly appreciated. Class will continue in about 24 hrs.]
