Default Study Hall


In close proximity to the library lies the study hall. Whether you are a first year or a seventh year, a Gryffindor or a Slytherin, a boy or a girl, this room is the best place to go for your studying and homework completion needs. If you ever find yourself stuck on something or have no clue what you're doing, you can always ask those who you are studying with for help or the professor that is overseeing the study session.

Scattered around the room are groups of desks that make it perfect for you and your friends to collaboratively work together. Average-sized oil lamps have been strategically placed on the desks to create a calm, comfortable environment. In a neat pile in the centre of the desks are extra quills, bottles of ink, and spare parchment should you need it -- just remember to leave the quills and ink at the table and only use what you need for parchment. Under the windows a long bookshelf containing a copy of textbooks for each class can be found, which you are welcome to use during your time in this room.

Charlie had taken to studying in the study hall off in a far off corner. It allowed her the chance to get some things done but didn't force her to have to be as quiet like she did when she was studying in the library. Or you know when she wanted to just read a good magazine in the library. She took out her Divination book and her parchment to start reviewing the material they had covered the last few days.

If she was honest she actually enjoyed partaking in Divination, Astronomy, and even Potions. But she knew that many people still found those subjects fairly boring. They wanted the bang and boom of charms and DADA. She dreaded DADA every term. Each term seemed to lean further and further to her dying or almost dying and she hated that fear, BUT she figured she needed to know how to defend herself. Divination and Astronomy sure as Merlin weren't going to teach her how to survive if some wild mad man decided to take over the Wizarding world like at Hogwarts that term... gross. Her shudder was evident as she took a deep breath again.

Meda was in the library and decided while she had a moment she would go and check on the study hall area. See if anyone needed any help or if they wanted any help. As she walked into the room she noticed just a few students and smiled. Going over to pick up a few books that had been left she stacked them neatly before moving on.

Glancing around she noticed Charlie and decided to see if she needed anything. "Are we doing alright? Need anything?" She was eager to help if needed.

Charlie glanced up from the paper she was writing her notes on to smile at Professor Euka. "Oh hi. I'm doing fine. Just trying to stay up on the studying, NEWTs and all this year." Glancing back down at her paper she figured now would be the time to ask her this question. "If I were to need extra aid in studying for my NEWTs after the holiday break, would that be something I could get help with?" She really wanted to pass her NEWTs even if she wasn't going to actually need them in her next career she figured she should at least be well prepared for life after Hogwarts.

"Studying for NEWTS is always a stressful time, but do remember to take some times to make memories and enjoy your last year here at Hogwarts. Some of my best memories have come from these walls, many of life lessons did as well and if I hadn't taken a moment to enjoy those, I wouldn't be where I am today." She loved the dedication students had when it came to studying, but she hoped her fellow staff members would agree that testing wasn't all that made a student, nor would it benefit them at all to do nothing but study.

"Help is always here if you ask, my door is always open and I believe many of your other professors would say the same if you need help in certain areas." Speaking of areas she squinted towards the corner of the room and walked closer distracted by what she was seeing.

"What in Merlin?" The dust on the floor looked very interesting, looking up she noticed that the wall had cracked just a bit and debris had fallen.

Smiling at Professor Euka she nodded her head, "Oh trust me there Weill be more than enough memories made this term. I have survived far too much to not make memories and put studying second." Closing the book she had opened she smiled once more, "granted I am fairly certain I'll do okay with all things Divination, but potions is a bit more of a worry." She shook her head at the thought of surviving potions for one last year.

She was glad to hear that help would be there. Wait, Merlin? What did Merlin have to do with anything? She moved close behind Professor Euka to the corner of the room "correct me if I'm wrong but uh, pretty sure that is not supposed to be there?" She hadn't ever seen cracks in the school or debris hanging out in the floors.

Now distracted Meda nodded at the word potions, "Do you like to bake at all? I have always found baking helping me in potions or maybe it was potions that helped me in baking." Either or that was a way she connected with the subject and found a personal level of enjoyment from both.

Reaching down she placed her hand over the dust to see if it was from the ceiling or something else. "This is very strange, I wonder how on earth this could have happened." Her eyes searched the wall until she came across another crack going down the opposite wall.

"Oh dear, that one seems bigger." She walked over to examine the crack, "No, the castle shouldn't have any cracks."

Charlie couldn't even process and respond to the fact that Professor Euka mentioned baking could help with potions. She was completely overtaken by the crack in the wall. " I'm not sure I want to know because the answer isn't going to be good." Leaning closer like Euka had she shook her head, "lovely, what should we do? Or I guess you should do."

Meda was lost in thought for a moment, maybe this was just something that was missed with all the vines, but she didn't fully think that was it. It was an old castle, but no, that shouldn't be it either. Stopping a moment she looked at the seventh year. "I say we will need to patch up these cracks and let the headmaster know of what was found though if it is just some random cracks...."

That thought was ridiculous and she knew it. It was Hogwarts, but she wouldn't say that in front of a student, but she worried that it was left as aftermath of something else or just some magic maybe not working. Either way Meda felt it could be fixed pretty easy.

"Do you want to work on these cracks and I'll work on the one over there?"

Well at least she was familiar with doing this sort of thing with her parents always being out and about in the field doing their digs. She nodded her head, wait what was the spell again? "Sure sure, what's the best way to do it again? I'm drawing a blank on how best to repair them."

Well honestly she was dumbstruck by the fact that the walls were cracking, that didn't seem like an overlook from the vines last year. No this seemed like more than the cracks of an old castle.

Meda was thinking as she lifted her wand and did reparo without speaking. She watched as one of the cracks started to mend. As she watched it she thought about a few things that needed her attention, but this would be what her focus was on for now.

Turning as she heard Charlie ask, "I would hope reparo would work fine, but if it isn't we can try something else." It seemed to work for her on the first crack and she lifted her wand again to vanish some of the dust and dirt that was on the floor.

Smiling she nodded her head watching the crack seem to repair. Taking a deep breath she grabbed her wand and pointed at the crack and hoped it actually repaired itself, because seriously she did not want to break the castle more than she had to you know?

she watched as the crack seemed to fix itself.

Working through the cracks, Meda checked around the room before turning. "I think that is all of them, very good. " She was pleased by the work that was put in. "You will get 5 points for the extra help you have put in, thank you."

As she continued to scan the area and decide that it seemed alright in there for now she turned back to Charlie, "I think I'm going to go make the headmaster aware of this and let you get back to your studying."

With that she turned and headed out the door.

Default Little study sesh?
curly haired prefect - "sometimes I get angry!" - 30/90 - *chicken emoji* - probably @ Disney - I speak dog

Javier knew that the fifth years were probably stressed about their impending exams at the end of the year. Now that they were in the second semester - the final stretch, if you will - he wanted to give them an opportunity to do a study session. It was much warmer here than in his hut, plus he had a lot more room, so why not host some fun office hours up here and see what they needed help with?

Javier had informed them all of his impromptu study hall session after class the previous day, so all that was left to do was sit down at a table, work on some grading, and wait to see who showed up!

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

So… uh… Jude wasn’t a fifth year but he was sort of attending on behalf of his sister Reagan who was, in fact, a fifth year. At the moment, Rea was indisposed because of um… female issues. No one needed to know THAT but since Hernandez had said that students of other years were welcome, the Hufflepuff didn’t feel so out of place. Besides, this study session could come in handy for when his time with OWLs came around. Not to mention, he would be able to pass on some knowledge to Rea.

“Hi, professor,’’ Jude gretted, grinning somewhat sheepishly. “My sister isn’t feeling so well so I offered to soak up some potion knowledge then share them with her later.” He tried to sneak a peek of the work Hernandez was grading. What were the chances that same happened to be Jude’s?

Fifth year Evan Nam's entire personality was OWL prep. He was hoping for a near perfect, if not actually perfect, score. He'd like to see similar scores for all his fellow fifth years, but he could only force them to study with him so often. Seeing a study session listed with Professor Hernandez sounded like too good of an opportunity to also pass up, so he'd made sure to clear his schedule for the time and made his way to the study hall.

Arriving, he was surprised to see Jude, but figured maybe he was just trying to get a jump start on prepping for next term. Which.. come to think of it, perhaps he should have asked Maya along for that reason as well. It never hurt to start early!

Finding himself a seat, he smiled at both before pulling out his study journals. "Hello Professor. Thanks for putting this together." Sincerely. "Hey, Jude. Starting your studying now?" He'd come in too late to hear Reagan was not going to make it.

Which came first, the phoenix or the flame?

Ash thought tests were dumb. She was very good at them. That didn't mean they weren't dumb. But she did acknowledge that they gave you opportunities later. Father had taught her to take opportunities. Even annoying ones.

While she mostly liked to study on her own, it was nice to trade study habits with others and get help from a teacher. A good teacher. She quietly entered the library and sat down next to the professor. That way she could ask a lot of questions without other people hearing them. What is your favorite potion and Can I apply for extra time and What is your opinion on standardized testing and Would there be stuff on the test they had to study outside of the curriculum and Should I start reading ahead if I know my current material.

Ash had a lot of questions. She didn't voice them quite yet though. She just nodded quietly at the people already there. Evan(her bestie!) and Jude(she didn't know him very well but he seemed alright).

Okay, so Dia wasn't exactly a fifth year. But, as a seventh year, she also had some very important tests coming up at the end of the term. And her father had insisted that she'd have many more opportunities open to her if she had a good potions score. And potions was one of her worst subjects. So, here she was in hopes of improving that score.

"Hey, professor!" she greeted, plopping down in a seat. Had they started yet?

Javier smiled at Jude and nodded. "Very admirable of you - come on in and have a seat," he said. Anyone was welcome at this little study sesh! As far as he was concerned there was never a BAD time to learn more about the subjects they were studying, right?

Unless you were having a bad day and you just mentally were NOT there. In which case, he understood.

"Of course Mister Nam. I hope it'll take some of the stress off of you fifth years," Javier explained. That was...sort of a pointed statement. He'd seen how much Evan had been working this year and just wanted him to remember that studying didn't have to take over EVERY moment of his life this term!

"Hello Miss Wolff," Javier was also pleased to see another older student come in to the group. NEWTs were just as important - if not more so!

"Alright everyone, so I was going to run this little study session pretty casually. I was going to start off by asking some questions, but if at any time you have a specific question or need help with something you seem stuck on, feel free to ask and we'll all go over that instead. So until someone starts us off, I'll ask you all this question for review...what is the use of the Girding Potion?" he asked.

It was only with Olivia's help that Cooper's grades in Potions had maintained a pleasant hover around Exceeds Expectations and had not dipped below Acceptable, so he was certainly no expert in the subject. Nor was he someone who he would encourage people to turn to for assistance and review...BUT Cooper did still have some of his OWL review materials and figured that the professor might find them useful for this little session.

It had taken him longer to get all of the pieces together and he had somehow misplaced his corkboard to pin all the pieces up on (it was currently in the Art Room with a half finished project pinned to it), so he was arriving a bit later than anticipated and just at the tail end of Professor Hernandez opening statement.

Box of color coded notecards clutched in his hand and a couple of stragglers that had falling out along the way clenched between his teeth in a last ditch effort not to be more late...Cooper approached the table and slipped into the seat beside his fellow seventh year while offering somewhat sheepish expressions all around. Girding Potion though...that was actually an answer to one of the cards in his deck, he was fairly certain. In fact...maybe with the category clenched between his teeth? Clearing his throat, Cooper pulled the bits of paper from his mouth and laid them out on the table - a stack of soft lavender cards with one deep purple with the words 'WET WINGED' - which was, naturally, a category where all the answers related to potions and brews that utilized wings and flying creatures in their brewing process.

"Apologies," he smiled and tried not to sink his neck between his shoulders too much.

...anyway...hello, everyone. Small little waves to you so as not to disturb things more.

Constant Vigilance! O_O AWAKE!

Margaret had copied down the information about today's potion study session, when Professor Hernandez had announced it, but over the course of the day...she'd of course forgotten about it. It was a break from her routine, so...yeah. She'd forgotten. Until about...well, she remembered.

At which point she'd promptly shoved her potions study things in her bag, shoved her feet into her shoes, and literally ran up the many flights of stairs between her dorm and the study hall. She'd been busy studying all of the things, potions included, since well, August, but she needed all the help she could get.

She stopped short, just outside the door, straightened her hair, and took a breath. Then Margaret walked coolly in, slightly apologetic smile on her face. She hadn't meant to be late, but...well, it wasn't class and it wasn't mandatory, so it wasn't like she could get in trouble. Plus, was that Cooper she'd seen slip in just ahead of her? "The girding potion, sir?" She wanted to make sure she heard right, as he'd asked the question right as she walked in.

"Isn't that the one to improve endurance?" She slid into the seat next to Evan. "Though not sure why you'd bother, it smells so bad. Just put in the effort and practice, that's how you should improve endurance." Not that he'd asked about that.

Which came first, the phoenix or the flame?

Ash, being Ash, took out her markers and drew on her arms while others talked. The girding potion? Ash searched through her memory for the- wait wait wait. Something about what Mamie said caught her attention. ”I thought I drank it once. But it was the wrong color.” It was a forgetfulness potion, actually. Assuming that Mamie’s information was right. Ash hadn’t fact checked it yet.

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

While Jude had been trying to sneak look at the paper, Evan arrived. He immediately turned his attention to his closest friend. “Hi, Ev!’’ The Hufflepuff grinned happily. At least he wouldn’t feel fully out of place with Ev here. “You can say that,’’ his remarks continued as he followed the Ravenclaw and took a seat beside him. “Rea’s not well so I offered to take notes for her.” He watched other fifth years file in, raising a hand to distractedly acknowledge Ashley’s nod and, wishing that his sister would consider having study sessions at least once with Evan. Jude would really like it if the two of them got along. But as long as he was stuck at being just Evan’s friend, then he knew that Rea would never be fully civil with the other boy. He sighed to himself. Why was his older sister so complicated? Out of the corner of his eyes, Jude caught Cooper’s little wave and sent back one of his own. Gosh, the older guy had an awful lot going on there, didn’t he?

The Girding Potion? The Hufflepuff pulled his thoughts together. He grabbed a quill but since there were no notes to be written as yet, twirled it between his fingers of his right hand. After listening to a few replies, he raised his left. "Question, professor. I believe the maximum dosage of this potion is two vials. But at what point in time? Is it two vials per day? Per month? Per lifetime?”

Ash's approach got a nod back in reply, a small smile shot her way and in greeting to the others who soon followed, though Jude also got a verbal 'Hello' in response to his own. When Professor Hernandez mentioned just wanting to take the stress off the fifth years, Evan opened his mouth to say it wasn't that stressful but.. closed it before he could. Teachers knew it was, and considering how often he bothered them all with questions? They knew how intense he also was about it.

But right, question. The girding potion - endurance. He jotted it down in his notebook, and was about to respond with thoughts on it, before Margaret was sliding into the chair next to him and turned to give her a smile as well. He was pleased to see her and that she hadn't already grown sick of studying, she'd been putting a lot of work in this term as well. "Hey." He offered quietly, returning Cooper's wave simultaneously, before turning back to the group. "While avoiding the smell probably would be beneficial, I think the potion probably has it's place when it's a situation in which you absolutely need the magic assistance." Normally he'd agree on hard work, but in life or death situations... that shot of endurance might have been helpful.

Javier just gave Cooper a nod of acknowledgement and a small smile as we walked in - as if to say he didn't mind him being a little late. This was an informal study session, after all!

"Well, some people may have difficulties working out or finding time for it in their schedule," Javier pointed out as a counter argument to Mamie's answer. Although he wasn't sure why you'd want such short term endurance, unless it was something like the Triwizard Tournament...which had to be breaking some sort of rule.

"You thought you...drank an endurance potion once?" he asked, staring at the Ravenclaw in confusion. Why was she tasting potions she was unsure about in the first place?!

"Two per 24 hours. Any more than that can wreck havoc on your liver," Javier explained with a smile. "Excellent question!"

"Very good," Javier nodded in approval at Evan's answer. While many people would never have a need for such a potion in their lives, some people DID and therefore, it was serving a purpose.

"Alright, next question...what potion is the Deflating Draught an antidote for?" he asked.
