Cat was excited. Not only was this her favorite class, but it was occurring in the Forbidden Forest. Which was, by definition, forbidden. She was certain given that information that it would otherwise be very rule-breaky for her to explore it out of this setting. So, she was going to take full advantage of this opportunity.

Her excitement was fairly obvious, given how much she was bouncing on the balls of her feet as she followed Professor Cox and the other students into the forest. She tried to take in as much as she could, both visually and audibly, but she knew that there was simply too much. She’d have to take some time in class to observe extra.

As for now, she began her foraging. This seemed like the perfect task for her after a summer of extra reading (and the recent frantic search for an anti-beard potion). She was fairly familiar with potion ingredients. She began a slow lap around the clearing, not entirely sure where to look. That is - she wanted to look everywhere. She was careful to walk slowly, deliberately, specifically following the direction to not die. Still, somehow, as she stepped forward a root caught the toe of her shoe. A root that Cat was almost certain had not been there a second before. She knew. She looked.

A small squeak escaped her lips as she stumbled, turning as best as she could to land on her backside. As she did, something shiny caught her eye. Was that a unicorn hair?!
