Dark eyes turned to the first speaker. Allright.
"Thankyou for that answer, Kellen Stern from Ravenclaw." Recording into memory. Yes.

She was strict, Savannah could just tell by the tone in her voice. Savvy twirled a strand of long curly hair around her finger, shortly before raising her hand.

Answering questions never hurt,right? RIGHT.

"Uhmmm...yeah...Savannah Conrad, Slytherin..."Savvy said, her hand still up."Creature to me means anything that once had a breath of this earth, either it be living or dead."Sounded good, right? Right. The blonde put her hand down, waiting for a response back. See, this was one of the rare classes where she actually some what understood what was going on. She felt smart in this class.

'Uhm yeah Savanna Conrad?' Hah! But the girl had a good answer aswell. "Mhm." Nod nod. "Thankyou."

Raising his hand Riley spoke. "Riley Sinclair, Gryffindor 5th year. And Professor Saylen, a creature is an animal that roams wild in the environment." he nodded. He didn't feel as if Goblins (shiver) or House elves counted since they weren't in the forests or wild, they were more like...beings?

"Thankyou for that answer, Mister Sinclair." So far the students were proving themselves quite alert.

She opened her bag and began to search for gloves as the Proffessor spoke about them, hoping she'd actually remembered the stupid things. She'd had them in potions... yep, there they were, right at the bottom.

She pulled them out and raised her hand to answer the Proffessor's question 'Viktoriya Johannsen, Gryffindor house' she began, as instructed 'To me, the word creature means... well, an animal. Preferably a cute, cuddly one, but an animal of some sort. And it means... something living' she said, not sure if that was the kind of answer the woman wanted, or if she wanted an actual defintion.

Hm. A cuddly animal...allright. "Thankyou for that personal answer, Miss Johannsen."

Oh, really? Maya squinted at the boy. "Thankyou for that enlightning answer, Mister White." Squiiiint.

Creature... What does it mean to us?

The prefect raised her hand. "Iris Beaumont, Professor." Iris looked directly at the professor as she started to talk, "For me, the word 'creature' defines any... uh..." Okay, finding the wording for what a creature is, is actually very hard, "like, any animal or being that's alive, but isn't a plant."

Eh... that wasn't a very good answer, really. Iris carried on, and elaborated her answer. "I mean, like... a plant wouldn't be a creature, because it's rooted to where it lives and grows, even if it's able to move and stuff. But! A Creature can travel, move around freely at it's own will. So... to me, creatures are anything that can travel, hunt for food, communicate with others of it's own kind - and sometimes other kinds." Iris nodded uncertainly at her own words, "I suppose in a way, we wizards and witches would also be creatures, in some senses."

There. That sounded more like a half decent answer. Even if it was a lot of nonsense. It's what she thought a creature was, and that's what the professor asked for. Teehee.

Oh...my. gosh. Maya raised her eyebrow, listening as the girl tried to explain. "I understand what you mean, Miss Beaumont." Nod.

He could certainly get used to her being around especially next to him in class as long as it wasn't too distracting. As the professor spoke up starting class, the Gryffindor turned his full attention to her thinking on his answer.

"Simon Bennett, Gryffindor," he replied doing as he was instructed when there was an open chance to speak. "To me a creature is a living thing either kept as a pet or out in wild. Something not human but still a living breathing part of nature," he answered.

Hehe, they all looked pretty fun with their gloves on and nothing to hold. "Mister Bennet, that was very insightful." ...into your brainnn. Yep.

"A creature is an organism and in historical belief the term means all such things were created. It generally means non-human animals but as we were all created as well then I believe it includes humans too. So basically a lot of things."

"Thankyou, Miss O Mia Gibbins." Hehehe. "Good answer."

Melanie shrunk back in her seat just a little as the professor started speaking. The words didn't make as much of an impression on her as the manner that the Professor spoke with. She seemed very authoritative to Melanie. It reminded her of a certain past professor, only it wasn't quite the same. She looked over at Treyen to see how he was reacting, before looking up at the professor again.

Raising her hand nice and high, she started to speak. "I'm Melanie Lockhart and I'm a Hufflepuff." Cue proud smile. "To me a creature is an animal... with distinct animal qualities. They live in the wild and live off what's available. That's usually how I hear the word used anyway." Eh... She wasn't too sure about her answer. A little uneasy, Melanie lowered her hand to her side.

"Yes, most people do hear it like you do, aswell." They certainly did. "Thankyou, Miss Lockhart-" Squint. Were she and that boy related? Hmmmmmmmm.

At her question Salander raised an over-eager hand and replied "Salander of Slytherin."Hmm, that kinda sounds nice "A Creature is this large, walking frog-man that drags people to the bottom of the lagoon."

That did not just come out of his mouth did it?

Uh... "You must be thinking of a Clabbert, Mr Salander." Oh she hoped he was. "And what is your first name?" Dude.

"a creature, can be anything, like leeches" *shudder* "or a cat" YAY CATS! "but the term creature can't really be defined, because pretty much everything is a creature" she said, okay now would be a good time to shut up "and not many people believe in zombies" *glare* "but they'll be sorry when the zombie apocalypse comes" okay now she shut up, she was done. She had said her part ... about zombies.

"Sammy Star." Well, well. Maya was approving what the girl was saying, until she mentioned zombies way too many times. "Yes, I am sure the zombies will be happy for your support. And there are many different types of zombies too." Cue smirk.

"A creature to me is something created. It can also be inanimate or animate." she said as she lowered her hand.

Ah, it's "Miss Maylfoy, thankyou for your answer." She wasn't sure what she meant with the animate/inanimate, but this wasn't a right or wrong answer type of question.

Exellent. "Good answer. Thankyou, Miss Youngblood."

Back to the Professor. Oh, the gloves. Hehe. No, Treyen didn't bring those, actually, he had no idea where they were...sooooo....

Raising his hand the boy answered, "Treyen Lockhart, but you already know that...Hufflepuff, and you already know that too, Professor" he said, a small smile on his face, "A creature, to me, is an animal or living thing that we can take care of, or not" he said, lowering his hand now.

Narrowing eyes now.

Oh, here it comes. Maya stared dully at the young boy. Yes, she knew his name and all that, but was glad he hadn't ignored her request. "Interesting. Thankyou Mister Lockhart." WAS he the other Lockhart's brother?

Well wasn't this Professor just a ray of sunshine. Hehehe. Yush, Evelyn would actually like this class a bit more then. Leaning back on the bench, the Slytherin listened to the answers, almost missing what the question was in the first place. Something about what a creature is.

"Evelyn Flores-Shepard, Slytherin house." she said after raising her hand before starting her answer. "In my opinion, a creature is anything that isn't fully human." Simple as that. She would have added anything not fully human OR a plant, but some plants...she just wondered about. They had a mind of their own.

"I see what you mean." Nod nod. "Thankyou Miss Shepard."

I can understand why some of my classmates say that humans are different from creatures, but I would consider us a type of creature as well." She put her hand down with her eyes still fixating on the two containers and her protective gloves in hand.

Hehe. This girl was learning. "Quite...interesting. Thankyou Miss Hollingberry." Aha.

Raising her hand she said, "I'm Marie Salazar, Slytherin 4th year professor. To me a creature is anything that the Ministry has given a rating. Be it a 1X or a 5X rating. If it has a rating then it is a creature." Yep and there were a LOT of creatures out there. Some were kept as pets, like Frankie and Kali and others were not meant to interact with humans.

"Marie Salazar," Nod. "You trust the Ministry to give you the right information, then." Foolish...or not? "Thankyou for your answer."

Maya was content. These kids knew. "Mister Stevenson..." Hmmm. "Thankyou." Maya nodded again and paced some more, stopping before one of the vivariums before turning around to face the class again.

"Very good answers from you all." No confusion here, right? "So what makes a creature magical?" Hmmm? She looked up at the sky, "What makes a creature non-magical?"
