"That is correct, Mr. Atreyu-Rehman. They have very sharp teeth and are therefore hard to handle. The solution for this is to de-fang them." Tapio had a few bites on his hands at the moment, because he had been finishing up some de-fanging before class started today. Nothing too serious, though; all in a day's work.

Phoebe was so excited that her words came out all jumbled up and she started coughing like crazy.

WHEEZE. "Do we get to see-" cough cough. "-dangerous plants today? Pretty please?"

Tapio smiled at the jumble of words. "Yes, Miss Calypso, mandrakes can be very dangerous, especially the fully-mature ones, because of their screams. That's why we only deal with immature mandrakes in Hogwarts classes. And you're also right, if I understood you correctly, that they are useful in restorative draughts for petrification. And in answer to your last questions...yes, you just might see, and even touch, some dangerous plants today." Tapio enjoyed building up a bit of mystery in class.

"Yes, indeed, Devil's Snare will try to choke its victims, and it doesn't like sunlight." My, but this year's students were a sharp bunch, weren't they?

"Those are all good answers." said Tapio, "And Miss Thanatos has happened onto the subject of today's lesson--the Devil's Snare. She has already told us two things about this plant--who can think of anything else regarding this plant?"

[OOC: Lesson is continuing with question two, and will resume tomorrow night (Tue., Nov.14) at around this same time. Feel free to join the class and/or catch up.
