She made notes as each color was explained to her. Purple and white looked good to her, and she liked the meaning of blue, but something was missing. Her hand shot into the air. "Professor, why are there no black tulips?" Or were their black tulips, but maybe they represented a vice instead of a virtue? Lola very much liked the color black, being Goth and all.

Team activity time. Oh, goody. Sarasam. Lola didn't usually do good on a team; she was seen as too aloof and her dislike of being touched even accidentally only reinforced this mentality. But she supposed it was always worth giving it a shot. She'd give others one shot to join her, on her terms. "I'm going to combine blue and purple," she said to no one in particular. This was as close as she would get to inviting someone to join her. If no one joined her, she'd be content to try this on her own. She walked over to grab the blue flower with one hand.

Rajesh would have to admit, he didn’t know much about tulips, other than bits and pieces of what was being said, so he let his classmates speak up with answers. What Mouse had said had definitely gotten a slightly raised eyebrow. Taking notes to look back upon, the seventh year looked back up at the professor when he moved on and confirmed that they weren’t your average everyday tulips that you would see even in muggle gardens. So he WASN’T wrong in thinking something might be up with them beside the weirder colors.

Trilling Tulips

Plants that make sounds and trying to group them together for the more favorable outcomes.

Certainly a new thing to learn about, not that the Ravenclaw wasn’t open to learn about it. When Professor Devries mentioned breaking up into groups, Raj looked around on who to work with only to notice the classmates he might have felt most comfortable with were already grouped up…together. So that meant working alone perhaps. He moved to retrieve a pair of earmuffs for himself as he debated, slipping them half-on and catching sight of a younger Ravenclaw also seeming timid about the group work. The seventh year hearing her thoughts on ideas.

“Perhaps add some green to the mix with new beginnings pairing with the idea of rebirth,” he suggested, grabbing one of the green tulips and moving over to where she was working. Hopefully she didn't mind him offering to work with her without actually asking.
