Default Care of Magical Creatures Lesson ❧ 1

CARE OF MAGICAL CREATURES LESSON
in the Rose Garden


The day was drawing to another illustrious end upon L'Académie de Magie Beauxbâtons and Mathys had been here in the Rose Garden for at least an hour now setting up magical perimeters and prepping the area. Having always found the grounds enchanting at this hour, the Care of Magical Creatures professor found himself wishing to take a stroll over to the cliff side view with his watercolors, but instead found himself questioning these Hogwarts students' ability to perform Loricatus.

They would be needing it this evening.

Comfortable wicker couches that seated five were arranged in three neat rows facing the lavish walls of the castle. Mathys himself stood just beyond these with a palm-sized smooth stone nestled on top of his right hand while his left was tucked dutifully behind his back.

Remember to mind the rules of the Rose Garden as you make your way in and find your seats. Your professor can only guarantee you safe instruction on how to handle magical creatures - an infuriated headmistress was beyond his pay grade.
index de leçon
question one | what do you know about shape shifting and form phasing creatures?
question(s) two | what are the evolutionary advantages of shape/phase shifting?; how do you distinguish between a shape/phase shifting creature and one that is transfigured in form?
creature preparation | successfully perform Loricatus
creature preparation | additional tips & tricks...and the headmistress
gargoyles descent | defensive instructions & reactions
gargoyle chaos | sacré bleu, Hogwarts
class dismissed


OOC: Salutations and welcome to our first Care of Magical Creatures lesson together this term. Please keep in mind that while this is your (the RPers of SS) first lesson, IC your characters have been at Beauxbatons now for 2 months and have had numerous lessons with Professor de Nostredame.

Before posting, make sure you are familiar with the rules and regulations for the subject.

Class will officially begin in approximately 24 hours from the time of this post.

Her experience with dangerous creatures was quite limited indeed.

Thing was, Cecelia was good at getting spells PARTLY right a lot of the time, but they never worked as well as she WANTED them to. She knew this was probably 'cause she was only a first year, but it did make her feel kinda gutted sometimes. Maybe she'd manage this one? Maybe.

"Lo-Lori-no." The wand movement really WAS difficult and the small blonde dropped her wand right onto her foot, which was NOT the plan. She looked around before bending to retrieve it, wanting to try again. "Lori-Loricatus." She didn't even drop her wand the second time around, but she was concentrating SO hard on NOT dropping it, she wasn't focusing ENOUGH on making her shield work. Magic was real hard...

"Loricatus!" She didn't feel any heavier, Cecelia didn't. She gave her arm a firm poke just to test it and nope, no shield for her. Maybe this one time it was okay to get some help...

"Could somebody maybe help me?" She saw the older boy offering, so she gave him a small wave and a tentative smile. Over here, please.

She didn't blame her fellow first-year for trying; in fact, she was impressed that Claudine had answered so boldly.

And yet.... Bernie was starting to suspect that this man was DEFINITELY a lycanthrope. Bernadette added that task to her journal in rather bold, underlined pen: Prove Notredame's lycanthropy. She caught Cece's eye at her kind words, and smiled a little to show she'd be fine. She was a Gryffindor. ROAR. They were made of MUCH tougher stuff than Frenchmen.

Plus now they had a spell to learn, so that was a good distraction to stop her line of angry!thinking! Bernie slammed her journal shut and stuffed it in her bag, happy to stand up and stretch out her short legs. She was REALLY, REALLY curious about what creatures they were going to meet obviously they wouldn't have snouts or tufted tails and wondered if THESE were the creatures that had injured their professor?

"Lori-cactus," she practiced casting, pointing to her hand first. Oops, that didn't sound right. "LORICATUS," Bernadette tried again, this time attempting to spin her wand in the same direction Notre Dame had showed them. It was... not correct, and this time she fully dropped her wand on the ground like it was made of rubber.

Ummm. "Can anybody help me?" she called out in a small, pitiful voice.

Cole didn’t feel like a Loricatus spell expert at all. He had though now successfully managed to put on and take off the invisible shield from his skin more than three times in a row. He still felt that the wandmovement was particulary tricky so it was with a humble attitude that he went over to Cece. Smiling down at the younger lion girl Cole asked "Hi Cecelia, is it the wand movement that is tricky? One thing I’ve found works is to use your forefinger to steady your wand along with your thumb to give it more leverage as you flick it upwards. Maybe try that?# It was just a suggestion. Cole saw that Bernadette wanted help too, but he didn’t wan’t to seem like he was hogging helping all the first years. Maybe that’d give Professor de Nostredame the wrong idea. So he didn’t wave Bernadette over. He would though if nobody else offered. Then Headmistress Desmaries arrived in an agitated state...Her petites?

This. Spell. Was. Completely. Impossible.

Kaiser didn't know how anyone had managed to get it right yet; he'd still not got past nailing the wand movement, let alone actually tried to cast the spell. He was all fingers and thumbs, which was doubly frustrating as he could always count on his digits when he climbed or played guitar (even if he wasn't amazing at playing). This was tiredness, he knew it. If he was operating on all cylinders he'd have managed it by now.

It was perhaps a good thing that he was at the back, because there was a lot of frustrated muttering coming from Kaiser - though it was all in Italian and, as far as he was aware, only Alessandro would have been able to understand him anyway.

Eventually, finally, at last, Kaiser managed to get all the way through the wand movement without dropping his wand or fumbling, but he could only assume that the ten minutes was almost up. As much as he was, at this point, willing to just say 'whatever, let the creatures do their worst, I don't care', he thought he might as well try and get the spell successfully cast.

Once more, he tried the wand movement, this time throwing in the incantation and the intent. "Loricatus."

Honestly? He hadn't been expecting it to work; his frustration was so much so that focusing on intent was really quite difficult, he half expected to drop his wand yet again, and he had never yet successfully cast a spell first time, at least that he could remember. So Kaiser was surprised when he felt that tightening around his skin, exactly like wearing too-small clothes (and oh, he knew very well what that was like). Slightly amazed, Kaiser prodded at his arm to see what it felt like from the outside, then looked up when he became aware of a familiar voice from up at the front.

... Interesting, no? And, you know, probably a little insulting, if you didn't have very thick skin. Kaiser watched with not-even-remotely-veiled interest, peering through the gaps between heads, to see how this interaction would go. Would de Nostredame give in and move them along, or would he diffuse Desmarais' distress? If the latter happened, Kaiser was mentally taking notes.

The older boy's willingness to help her was super nice and Cecelia tried her best to pay attention to what he was saying, even when she noticed the headmistress approaching and being all dramatic. SUCH. DRAMA.

Um.

"Think it's mostly that I'm worrying about the hand movement and not really concentrating on the intent part," She admitted, re-positioning her wand so she could try it like he suggested a few times. The first go had her dropping her wand to the floor like before and she sighed before picking it up, offering the kid a sheepish smile. The next time she tried, her movement was a bit sloppy, but it DID work. "Hey, it worked! Thanks for the tip!" Really, thanks.

But did he ALSO see the way the headmistress was talking about them like they were the worst kids in the ENTIRE world right now? "We'd never hurt her roziz on purpose. That's not nice to say." The first year forgot all about her shield and crossed her arms, frowning some. She didn't like this headmistress very much at ALL.

~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.

Claudine dove but was not able to reach her wand in time. It hit the ground, rolled for a second or two before it came to a halt. It was quickly retrieved, at that moment the Headmistress made her comment. What? She cared more about her roses than their learning, their education? What was wrong with these Frenchies? Claudine rolled her eyes at the Headmistress’s dramatics. Yes, the roses were delightful and a pretty bunch, perfect for sketching and admiring but that woman needed to get over herself.

Not giving a second thought to the drama queen in their midst, Claudine continued her practice. It certainly took her a few more tries of intense concentration and wand dropping but to her relief and happiness, she mastered the complex wand movement. Smiling to herself, the Snakette muttered the incantation without doing the movement. Then…

She was ready to try the spell.

“Loricatus.’’ Cue the most complicated wand movement she had ever attempted: twist wand among fingers with thumb as leverage while flicking wand upwards.

“Darn it,’’ she muttered in slight frustration as the wand slipped out of her grasp for the millionth time. It raced for the ground while a beam of light shot from the tip and headed straight for a patch of roses. The result of this accident?

The said patch of roses were burnt to a crisp in the blink of an eye. Just look at the light trail of smoke rising from them.

Oops?

He did not expect the Hogwarts students to pick up on the subtle from above, but it brought a slight smirk to the professor's face. They would be descending upon them all soon and with ample time for these students to administer the spell to themselves. Or to each other as the case seemed to be more than not. It was only to be expected, especially from the first years who were still learning to master even the simplest of wand movements. No insult nor snark intended by this thought, mind you. That being said, he was still presently surprised that there were students who were picking it up so quickly. Naturally gifted with defensive spellwork, he supposed.

And he would consider this his victory, Mademoiselle Blaze. Arguing in his class would have only detracted from everyone's learning and earned you yet another detention with him.

There was also relief that the Hogwarts prefect was, finally, able to pull herself together. The disappointment vanished, somewhat, from his brow at the sight of her assisting Mademoiselle James, but the man was still concerned. Though he did suppose he could not blame her for being a bit emotionally unstable, it being her OWL year and being relocated to an entirely different environment for it was not conductive to low levels of stress.

"Outstahndeeng efforts," he praised as he slowly weaved his way around the students. "Try not to loose sight of your wand when it slips from your greep." Though he was confident he could find anyone's wand that went a bit rogue. Even if it were accidentally claimed by a rose bush and hidden within its thorns. "If you are uncertain as to whethair or not you have cast ze spell correctly, a simply way of checkeeng is to try and peench yourself. If you are able to touch your skin or cause any sort of peencheeng pain, you will need to recast. In such instances, I do not recommend zat you layair spell upon spell, but remove your failed attempt with Finite." He continued to move about students, offering advice and sometimes physically moving a student's hand on their wand to show them a better means of gripping it. "Mademoiselle Grantham, I can assi----"

But before he could finish his offer to the mademoiselle, his headmistress appeared in the garden in a fury. He supposed he should have informed her sooner of his change of plans with location, but the scent of her roses helped to placate this evening's creature companions.

"We are having class, Headmistress," he explained coolly, his arm instantly moving around to the small of his back to bow politely at the waist towards the woman. "It is pertinent and crucial, for ze safety of zese students, zat class be held here ziss evening. I assure you personally, Headmistress, zat no harm will came to..."

Wand hand across his chest, over his heart in a display of sincerity, Mathys soon found himself choking on his next words as a rose bush went up in flames right beside himself and his headmistress.

Sacré bleu.

It did not bother her that the eyes of the students had fallen on her, in the same way it didn’t bother her that they could hear what she was saying. Good. Let them hear. Let them know her roses were not to be harmed. This was the pride of her school. She’d worked tirelessly in it. Shut down this section of the school’s garden for a whole year to get it just right. That yoga session was meant to be it’s grand reopening before the miscreants ruined the whole affair. This garden was a BIG DEAL for her and so far the Hogwarts students had proven to be less than ideal guests. She would not let them ruin her garden as they tried to ruin everything else.

A new anger rose within her when Mathys explained the reason for this atrocity.

“Safety?!” She all but shrieked. “What about ze safety of my roziz?!?! What happenz when zhey damage zhem??” She didn’t CARE about their safety, she cared about her damned roses!! They were magical! They were perfection! They were—on fire!!

Giselle looked to the roses, then the careless girl, then her CoMC Professor. It was all she could do not to entirely explode. “You careless child!!!” She bellowed, reaching over and grabbing the girl (Claudine)by the scruff of her collar. “Look!” She demanded of the man. “Look! See! See what your care for zhem has caused! Look at my ROZIZ! Careless girl! You careless, careless girl! I warned you zhey we’re not skilled! I want zhem OUT. Out now! Out out out!”

Her grip didn’t loosen on the Slytherin. The woman was beside herself with rage.

“Ow could’you sink zhis was a good idea, Mathys?! LOOK!”

Peeeeeecheeeng pain, yes, Bernadette was feeling that alright as she picked her wand up and found a few rose thorns with it. Why couldn't she have picked something with the soft bits of roses on it? The good smelly petal bits? Bernie sighed and looked to Cole, as he showed Cece how to do the spell. OH NO, NOTRE DAME WAS HEADED ZIS WAY....! Timidly, she thought of her journal, which was stowed away in her bag, BUT STILL! He could probably read minds!!!!!!!1

Bernie gasped but was thankfully saved by the uncanny arrival the Beauxbatons Headmistress. Oh?? Did they not have permission to be here...? Her eyes darted back and forth between the two adults, and then came to rest on the most wonderful site yet: a bit of smoke and fire coming from dear darling Claudine.

"Good job!" Bernadette whispered rather loudly to her fellow first year, beaming and offering her a BIG thumb's up! "No animals will come near you for sure!"

What, she was just being supportive of her friend!

Alleyoop, now the Headmistress was REALLY mad! Bernadette wasn't going to let her drag off her fellow troublemaker apple exploder! "Hey, let her go!" she chimed in, finally remembering her wand and where to point it. It just so happened to be pointing to the HeadFrenchLady.

Default specifics for BanaBatGirl

They had already been stirring from their deep stone sleep long before the screams of their mistress were heard. Their thick leathery wings spread wide and flapped violently as they shook a few tufts of weathered stone-like skin free from their joints. All eyes below may on their mistress, the roars and howls that accompanied their waking this evening were sure to startle all.

Swiftly and with surprising grace for their bulky and heavy bodies, at least a dozen gargoyles swooped down from their resting spaces along the castle wall and roof to form a protective arch around their mistress.

Snarly and growling, they quickly took notice of a threatening presence: of someone pointing a wand at their mistress. Growling, the rumble reminiscent of an earthquake, one of the gargoyles with a head like a goat but with the beak of an eagle leaped forward and latched said beak around the tip of her wand before shaking its head violently back and forth to try and rip it free from her grip.

Or snap it in two.

What in the-----

Bernadette let out a delightful little scream when she heard the FLAP FLAP FLAPPING sound of a big bird--- nay, GOAT --- coming near them. Then her scream turned from delightful to SHRILL as the GOAT BIRD bit down on her wand like an ugly pup biting down on a chew toy and refusing to let it go. She didn't have TIME to be afraid of its ugliness-- HER PRECIOUS, BEAUTIFUL WAND was at RISK!

"No! Shoo! NO! BAD DOG!" Bernadette growled at the stone-ish? Was it stone or--- or bird? Bat? Was it part bat? No, that was a goat--- NO A DEVIL! It was SATAN in BIRD FORM! And it was trying to EAT HER WAND!

"BAD DOG!" Bernadette admonished the DEVIL THING again, louder now, as she attempted to smack its head with her free hand. "GET. OFF. MY. WAND!"

Unintentionally or was it? Was this how magic worked? Bernadette's wand sent a few red-hot sparklers into the mouth of the Devil Bird.

Did that first year just-...

She DID.

At the sight of the burning roses and the incensed headmistress, Kaiser let out a splutter which he very quickly tried to disguise as a coughing fit. But then he was trying so hard not to blatantly start laughing that it turned into a real coughing fit, and so Kaiser was out of action for about a minute.

Merlin. He couldn't. The roses. The precious roses had been annihilated, but mostly it was Desmarais' completely bizarre priorities that had destroyed Kaiser, not to mention de Nostredame's assurance that no harm would come to the plants right as harm had indeed arrived.

Coughing was happening, loud coughing at that. Then, finally, Kaiser recovered and looked up, eyes streaming, to see the Headmistress holding the first year by the collar, another first year with her wand drawn at the woman, and... a bunch of things.

Wiping his streaming eyes, Kaiser gave another weak cough or two and... just stayed put. Out of the way. Part of the furniture.

OH. NO.

No, no, no, no.

Wait, yup. Yes.

That happened.

Cecelia's eyes widened as flames completely scorched the very roses they'd been accused of mistreating and the blonde couldn't help but feel her heart sink. She'd kick them ALL out now and her parents would be SO disappointed and she was ONLY a first year and she had SO much left to learn and-

The noise. The growling. The flapping.

Whoa.

Cecelia WANTED to hide behind the nice boy who was called Cole, but she DIDN'T because she was brave and strong and...HAD NEVER SEEN GARGOYLES MOVING AROUND LIKE THIS BEFORE. They WEREN'T very nice to look at, but they WERE very intimidating and they didn't seem to like Bernadette too much, which wasn't good because SHE liked Bernie.

O__o

Not agaaaaain!

"They're just doing what's in their nature!" Probably. Maybe. Her MOM was the one who knew about creatures, OKAY? Still, she didn't think they should be eating sparklers! Did they even EAT? "I'll fix it, don't worry!" Only the thing WAS, Cecelia was a bit overwhelmed with everything going on and the dead roses and the gargoyle army, so she WASN'T really paying attention to her aim when she cast an enthusiastic, "Aguamenti!" The water came alright, only instead of putting the sparkler out, it blasted the Headmistress for a brief moment before fizzling out like she'd never cast the spell at ALL.

"Uh-oh."

OOPS?

Sheeee was just going to back up and stand next to...Kaiser...because he LOVED first years. He was ALWAYS surrounded by them, so she KNEW he did. Hi Kaiser.

~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.

Claudine straightened, forgetting to retrieve her wand, as she stared at what she had done. Hadn’t she just heard the CoMC professor reassuring the Headmistress that her precious ‘roziz’ would be safe? She guessed he had spoken to soon; he had literally jinxed the entire situation. The thought almost made her laugh. Claudine might actually have had it not been for her getting grabbed by the Headmistress.

“Let go of me this instant!” Claudine demanded in a loud, haughty voice. “It’s not my fault that we were given to perform a spell with the most complicated wand movement in history!’’ And with that, the Snakette attempted to wiggle and pull free from the rose-crazy woman. “Let me go!’’ Over all the ruckus, she thought she heard Bernie’s voice but couldn’t be sure. The next thing she registered was the sound of what seemed like wings and gargoyles appeared.

One was attacking Bernie.

Bernadette.

The only female friend that Claudine had at Hogwarts.

“Call off your great, stupid gargoyle or it’ll hurt her!’’ To her friend, Claudine yelled, “ZAP IT, BERNIE!’’

the sky is always there for me ☀ ☁ heavy hearts like heavy clouds

And there they were, right on time. Their phase shifting creature of the moment.

Mathys could not appreciate the gargoyles' punctuality at this moment and there was only a brief wave of relief that washed over him in the quick observation that the alpha of the pack had not flown down with the others. Not yet. It would only turn this disastrous situation into a catastrophic one. Assuming he still had his job come morning, he would try and hold a conference with his headmistress to try and smooth things over. See what of his repertoire with her he could rectify. A repertoire that he had painstakingly crafted since he began his time here at Beauxbatons as a professor. One now in shambles all because of one Hogwarts.....
......make that two..........
........Hogwarsts students.
In such shock that the thought of extinguishing the flames had not even crossed his handsome mind, Mathys took up the mantle after Mademoiselle Summers disastrous attempt at doing so herself. Waving his hand urgently, the man conjured water without the aid of his wand and doused the flaming rose bush with it. Mathys was not sure that this was much better, the ghastly sight of charred roses upturning even his stomach. Though this was only because of the reaction he knew it would elicit from his headmistress.

Though he wished to commend the first year for her quick thinking (something he was certain his headmistress would NOT appreciate now that she was drenched), Mathys made the snap decision to focus on the gargoyles and their encroachment on the Hogwarts students...rather than assist and dry his headmistress off. The gargoyles had been particularly one edge this term, something he was still trying to understand, and it would be a real international incident if one were to kill one of the Hogwarts students.

"OGOTT! RELEASE!" he commanded of the gargoyle attempting to ravage Mademoiselle Grantham's wand, his voice booming through the rose garden and almost seeming to rattle the luxurious glass windows on the castle. He feared for how he may retaliate to those sparks, though Mathys was prepared to cage the beast as necessary. Stunning would do no good against their thick as dragon scale hides. "Lowair your wands! Drop zem to ze ground! Zey'll ahttahck if provoked but zey will not attack ze defenseless."

He would...make some semblance of an attempt to answer his headmistress' inquiry in a moment. Once he was able to sedate the angry pack.

And then he heard Mademoiselle Blaze add fuel to the fire, quite literally, and he wished it were within his power to expel students.

"ZERE WILL BE NO ZAPPEENG OF ANY SORT! WANDS DOWN!"

OOC: while we havedelved into chaos, participation here still counts towards class participation and those hard earned participation points <3 Consider it all a sort of mini/main activity

This was a disaster. Phoebe dropped into a curtsy to thank Nettie for SAVING HER VERY LIFE. She was so appreciative of the older girl, and she promised to love Nettie forever and ever and follow her around and devote all her energy to being like her. Or whatever. But in the meantime, it was a DISASTER, ok? Bernie and Claudine and even CECE were in danger.

Phoebe obediently threw down her wand and launched herself toward the gargoyles. "DON'T EAT BERNIE! Eat me! I'm extra tasty!" And very fast. Phoebe did wild jumping jacks to distract the gargoyle, but she didn't have her wand so SHE WAS SAFE, see? Those were the rules.

When Nostredame came round to see how they were doing, Lucas, uh, blushed. Again. But he tried to hide it, he really did! He offered the man a smile, albeit a nervous one but the smile was there. Was he going to tell him off? Apparently not. Just mention something about checking if the shield charm worked or not by pinching himself.

Well, pinching sounded better than using the Blasting Curse so-

........

..............

Uh???? What was the Headmistress doing here?

Lucas watched on in confusion but, apparently, he didn’t need to wait long for an answer. She looked MAD, positively FUMING, and it was all because they were in the Rose Garden? He looked around him at these flowers. He knew she cared about them but this was a little extreme, wasn’t it? Not to mention insulting. She almost made them sound like they were going to go rabid on the flowers.

The flowers that were now on fire.

............

Oh Merlin. No no no no no. This was not........ this was not happening.

Maybe he really did need to pinch himself. Check if he was still awake.

But even as he thought this, he couldn’t take his eyes off of the scene in front of him. He stared in HORROR as the Headmistress looked like she had EXPLODED with anger. He could practically see the fumes coming out of her ears right now. But worst of all, she was grabbing a first year - the culprit? - by the scruff of her collar? Uh????

It was only at the sound of the grumbling that he tore his eyes away from the scene and found himself looking up, instead. Were those......... gargoyles?? Gargoyles who were now looking like bodyguards to the Headmistress. Something he would have been a little curious about if it wasn’t for the fact that one was going for Bernadette’s wand.

Too much. This was all TOO MUCH.

Lucas froze where he stood, eyes wide and his wand still clutched in his hand. It was the only thing stopping him from screaming. Though, it was hard not to when Cece then went on to drench the Headmistress and another first year was talking about zapping. And another first year was........ exercising????

No. No no no. How did a simple lesson on phase-shifting creatures turn into this?! What were they supposed to do now??

Drop their wands, according to Nostredame. Which he did. And he held up both of his hands as a way of surrendering.

Not dying. Not today.

He heard his master's call, but did not oblige. His beak only chomped down harder on the wood and caused it to splinter a bit. Flecks of wood caught between the more jagged parts of its beak, the gargoyle showed no sign of loosening its grip. That is...until the sparks flew. Their hide impenetrable by magic, the warm and soft interior flesh of their mouths was very much susceptible to spells and any sort of stimulus.

Squack!Yelping in discomfort, the gargoyle called Ogott did in fact let go of the wand and curled into a fetal position at the feet of his mistress.

Though damage had already been done to the wand. Some Spellotape ought to help a bit.

The rest of the gaygoyle pack remained tightly in formation around their misstress, but were soon provoked again by a wet attack from elsewhere. Leaping into action, another with a head like a pit bull and impressive horns like a full grown ram charged forward towards the small blonde human who had outright attacked his mistress. Lowering its head, it prepared to bulldoze her and did not care who else it may take down in the process.

Yet another broke ranks when it saw another small blonde wave and shout menacingly at them. And so a third broke rank, flanking off from the opposite side and bounding towards the girl with its demon head and lion paws ready for attack and latch on to one of those arms with its next leap.

"GRR-OFF MY WAND!" Bernie continued shouting, RELENTLESS with the Devil Bird, honestly thinking she was just as ferocious as it was. She was certainly equally hardheaded, and she cared A LOT MORE about her wand than the bird thing probably cared for its Headmistress.

She tried to follow what her classmates were doing to help (we hear you, Cece, GOOD JOB, and we see you, Phoebe), and was very much concerned about what this French Headlady was doing to Claudine, but she could hardly tear her eyes away from the creature! Did it know her wand was MAHOGONY?! "I PAID ELEVEN (11) GALLEONS FOR THAT!" the first year shouted passionately into the birdbeak's face.

Finally, it let go! The sparklers HELPED! ~Relief!~

Bernadette quite literally fell backward onto the ground, clutching her damaged wand to her chest like it was her baby. She might not know how to use it yet, and she did usually keep it tucked in her boot, but it was HERS and HERS alone. Now that she was away from the MONSTER, she could hear Notre Dame SHOUTING at them all again and she promptly decided she had to PROTECT HER WAND or what remained of it AT ALL COSTS. Bernie flipped around so her wand was well-hidden beneath her bum, and held out her empty hands like Lucas was doing. She was sorely tempted to stick her tongue out at her Demon Bird Friend over there, though. SEE, stupid bird! YOU DON'T MESS WITH THIS GRYFFINDOR!

...or, or that Gryffindor! Or THAT ONE, over there!

"Watch out, CECE!" Bernie cried out, tempted to cover her eyes. "A birdog is coming for you!" And Kaiser! Oh no, and another one was on the run! "EEEK! PHOEBEEEEEE!!!!" Don't be a lamb! "SAVE YOURSELF!!!!!!!!"

No, she could not watch. Bernie covered her eyes with her free hands. SOMEONE HAD TO SURVIVE THIS MESS to tell ALL the newspapers about how RUDE ZE FRENCH were!

What was that first year d-...

... Water. Right at Desmarais.

........ Okay, Kaiser had to admit it, that young Gryffindor had not made the wisest decision, but it had certainly been funny. He was very lucky that the lesson was so... chaotic, because he didn't have a single hope of keeping the amused look off of his face right now.

Except...

"Uh..." Why was the Summers girl sheltering by HIM? He wasn't involved! This wasn't his fight! He was not choosing this utterly hilarious hill to die on! Kaiser was not a fan of the idea of being a human shield between a first year and Desmarais. He sort of blinked down at the kid, and then briefly towards Desmarais before looking to de Nostredame who was yelling for everyone to drop their wands, which Kaiser was considering doing right when he saw it.

....... One of those creatures (which he now... thought looked like a gargoyle, though he couldn't say for sure that that was what he was looking at). Barrelling right towards Summers the first year, which meant it was barrelling right towards him.

No thought required. All thoughts of dropping his wand went straight out of his head, given the imminent danger. Kaiser - his amusement now fading, funnily enough - quickly leapt out of the path of the charging gargoyle(?), trying to pull the first year with him and hopefully getting them both out of harm's way.

Oh, roses. That was what the Headmistress was worried about. Officially even more offended now. I mean, the French lady cared more about the safety of a bunch of plants than the students who were guests in her castle? Might not want to put THAT in the adverts.

With everything happening all at once, there wasn't time to appreciate the hilarity of the first year turning one of Desmarais' precious rosebushes into ashes just as the woman was screeching about them possibly destroying them. Instead.....

"AH DIOS MIOS!" Were those gargoyles? Mind, they had that particular architectural feature back home, but they were just that: an architectural feature. They didn't move or attack or anything. Didn't need to tell her to drop her wand as she hopped onto one of the wicker benches. No, that had been dropped when she'd been distracted by the Headmistress' appearance.

All Tina could do was stand rooted to the spot, watching the scene unfold in front of her with a strange mixture of fear and anger. He had to fight the urge to roll her eyes at Desmarais’s antics. Nice to see the Beauxbatons tradition of falsely accusing people is alive and well, she thought bitterly. It was safe to say the rose garden was no longer her favorite place on the grounds. A part of her wanted nothing more than to set the stupid roses on fire - they were going to be blamed no matter what happened, so they might as well do the thing they were accused of - but that litle Slytherin (Claudine) had already done just that. Ha, serves her right for barging into their lesson and throwing out accusations! She wanted to applaud the girl, and she might have had it not been for what happened next.

Desmaris grabbing the Slytherin… that little Gryffindor (Bernadette) pointing her wand at Desmarais… that other little Gryffindor (Cecilia) trying (and failing) to extinguish the roses… and gargoyles. THERE. WERE. GARGOYLES. ATTACKING. STUDENTS. Nope, nope, nope! This was too much chaos for Tina to process all at once.

Her mind was shutting down, consumed by panic until de Nostredame’s voice jerked her back to reality. There was no need to tell her to lower her wand; she’d already put it away the moment she caught sight of Desmarais. As for dropping it on the ground… yeah, that wasn’t happening! If she took her wand back out of the holster to drop it, the gargoyles might view that as a challenge and attack. More importantly, how did she know they wouldn’t grab it off the ground and snap it in half like they tried to do with that little girl’s? How did she know someone wouldn’t accidentally step on it and break it amid all the chaos? Her dads (the two charms professor ones) told her to keep her wand on her at all times, so it was going to remain firmly in its holster at her side.

De Nostredame had better be right about the gargoyles not attacking anyone unprovoked! But just in case he wasn’t, Tina wasn’t going to stick around and be an easy target. She instinctively hid behind the nearest wicker couch, her dark eyes cautiously peering over the top. What was she going to do if the gargoyles attacked her anyway?

Sweet merlin cheese!

This was an utter total disaster. How on earth had they gone from practing Loricatus to the arrival of a furious headmistress to gargoyles. Cole just stared around, trying to grasp what had just happened in front of him. Everything had been going to Professor de Nostredame’s instructions and he had been helping Cece when literally hell had broken loose. He tried to order the events in order in his head:

1. Claudine’s wayward spell had burned a bunch of roses to ash
2. Headmistress Desmarias had furiously busted in and grabbed Claudine by the cuff
3. Bernie’s wand had almost became gargoyle food
4. Pheobe was launching herself at the gargoyles to save Bernie, but it probably was a very, very bad idea.

The gargoyle birds looked pretty menacing to Cole. Doing as instructed by professor de Nostredame had ordered he dropped his wand to the floor. He did though not want to sit to the side and do nothing, he was a brave lion after all. He couldn’t help Claudine right now, Cece was safe by Kaiser and Bernadette was out of the gargoyle’s grasp for now so that left Pheobe, another first year. What was up with these first years anyway? Oh god was his sister up to misconduct too?

Raising he voice as he scurried towards Pheobe he shouted "Pheobe stop angering the gargoyle!" Wandless Cole came to stop in front of Pheobe and pushed her behind his back not ugently to shelter her from the oncoming gargoyle ushering "Keep behind me!". Keeping his wandless hand’s out Cole took several nervous breaths hoping the loricatus shield on his skin would do it’s part if he was attacked by the gargoyle. Oh please could Headmistress Desmarias call of her guards already?

Oh, how we drift away from our friends. And the ones back home play remember when

Fiona cast, "Finite" on herself to remove her attempts before trying again. She was about to try again when she saw the Beauxbatons Headmistress looking very upset. The young Slytherin tried to resume her spellcasting when she was distracted by Claudine's rosy ignition. "Uh, oh. That can't be good." Sure enough, Fiona's widened in shock as she saw Claudine's collar get grabbed by the Headmistress. Would Headmaster Trent do that if the students were at Hogwarts? She certainly hoped not.

Fiona then heard the young lioness Bernadette defending her friend which lead to a whole lot of chaos thanks to gargoyle's furiously defending their mistress aka Headmistress Desmarais.

Amongst all the drama, Fiona managed to hear the professor's instructions/advice and quickly put her wand away. She didn't want to have to purchase a new wand. Fiona quickly hid behind one of the couches, her hands on top of her head, in a possibly vain attempt to shelter herself from harm.

Analiese listened to the younger girl explaining why she needed help. "So let's start with the wand movement.", she said, pulling out her wand. She balanced the wand her wand between her thumb and her middle and index finger before saying, "It's a bit like clicking your fingers. So it's like th-" She was cut off in mid-sentence by the Beauxbatons headmistress's sudden arrival and she dropped her wand in surprise. She dared not to pick it up at the moment as Headmistress Desmarais sounded very angry.

Analiese jumped with surprise as the headmistress suddenly grabbed the first year's collar. "Let her go!", she cried out, and without knowing what she was doing, she picked her wand up off the floor and pointed it at the headmistress. Once seeing the gargoyles, however, she quickly stowed it away in her pocket and jumped behind the same couch that the girl she was helping earlier jumped behind.

Who knew Beauxbatons was this chaotic?

It was like when you were at the top of a hill and you started to roll down, and the more you rolled, the more you picked up speed, until you found yourself at the bottom of the hill on your back, laughing and covered in grass stains, unsure of just how you'd gotten there so fast.

Only...this wasn't as much fun...She was definitely NOT laughing...Okay, actually a lot of that didn't really apply. The MOMENTUM thing, though! THAT part rang true. One small magical mistake caused the roses to burn which caused ALL this and she just HAD to help. She'd just wanted to HELP! She didn't mean to make anything worse, and NOW the professor was saying something about attacking when provoked and had SHE provoked them, too? Was she a provoker? WOULD THAT BE HER LABEL ALL THROUGH SCHOOL NOW?! O_o

Merlin's Beard! This was a dis-

Bernie's words caused Cecelia to come back down to earth and her blue eyes widened as one of the gargoyles charged towards her and Kaiser, who she had put in danger. "No! No, I was trying to help one of yours!" She hadn't even really CARED about the roses, honestly, which was probably really mean, but still! She didn't deserve this! SHE WAS ONLY ELEVEN! "Please, I'm sorry! You seem like a good boy. I'm so sorry!"

Dropping her wand, Cecelia was about to raise her hands into the air when the older boy tugged her out of the creature's path and she knocked into him, clinging to his leg. "I'll protect you, stay behind me!" Yeah, she was clearly SO good at making things better, she was.

So apparently dropping her wand wasn't the best way to convince the gargoyle that she wasn't dangerous. Phoebe eeped quietly and considered which way to run at Bernie's suggestion. And then this ABSOLUTE HERO OF A HUMAN stepped in front of her, and Phoebe immediately latched onto his arm.

"Maybe we can play dead. Or run. Please don't get horribly disfigured on my account. I can't live with the guilt." All of that was said in one breath, and she tugged gently on his arm to encourage the running plan.
