Default DADA Lesson: Kappas

It’s a fine albeit cold Monday afternoon in December. You need not worry about freezing your bum off, however! With every step you take towards the DADA classroom on the third floor, you feel the welcoming warmth radiating off your skin. Professor Khanna has charmed a fair bit of the corridor and the classroom in its entirety for the comfort of every living thing involved.

That’s right. Humans aren’t only what was in Dhruv’s care today. Upon entering the room, you’ll encounter a huge large transparent water tank at the front. It’s comfortable enough to have a curious creature splashing around: it seemed to be a scaly monkey-like one with webbed hands. Its head was an odd shape at the top - it seemed to have a depression. All the while, the creature is making cheeky faces in your direction as you walk through the door.

Professor Dhruv is leaning casually against their desk, arms folded. Don’t let this posture deter you from greeting them; they were mainly trying to keep their hands from reaching for the sunglasses tucked in their pocket and slapping it on. Instructions are given verbally: “Please take a seat, write your name and what you think this creature may be on a slip of parchment. Once done, fold the parchment, leaving it on your desk for now. In other words, DO NOT blurt out or otherwise make known the creature’s name. Those who answer correctly via the parchment will receive a prize. A hefty twenty point loss goes to each student who does not comply.” The classroom seating is arranged as per norm: rows of comfortable desk and chairs to accommodate all.


OOC: Hiii, all you beautiful people! Welcome to this OOC DADA lesson! I decided to set the thread up a little earlier than intended, but you’ll have about 27 hours before we move on! Have fun with Dhruv’s little activity until then! As a gentle reminder, all da rules apply! CLASS HAS BEGUN!

Lesson Progression:


* Greetings + First round of questions
* Responses to questions + Mini Activity instructions

* More responses to Mini Activity + New question
* Responses + Main Activity
* Responses to Main Activity - Part 1

She was still mulling over what would be suitable decorations when the professor made his rounds and quietly pointed out her error. "...oh..." Mitsuki replied quietly as she set her knife down on the table and reached for her wand to cast a quick cleaning charm upon it. She wasn't embarrassed as much as she was disappointed in that she had used her time and energy inefficiently even though her green tea leaves had cautioned her against such tresspassings. The Ravenclaw pushed the cucumber aside and observed Mercer a bit as he dropped his cucumber multiple times and then carved more than his cucumber. But, in true Mercer fashion, he made the best of the situation - something Gherkin would surely appreciation.

Her wand still out from cleaning her knife, Mitsuki reached for her (boy space)friend's hand and performed a swift and tight swoop over it. "Inurio Bani." A thing but sturdy white bandage emerged from the tip of her wand like a sterile ribbon that then wrapped snuggly around Mercer's finger. That was her position in their relationship, after all, finding the solutions to Mercer's innocent musings and occasional messes. She hadn't meant to perform the act in the middle of Professor Khanna's worries, it just happened to be that way. She felt that this was more than satisfactory for Mercer's current state, but only he knew how he felt it and so she simply returned her wand to her pocket, gave the back of his hand a little pat, and then rose to fetch herself another cucumber.

It was probably for the best that she was otherwise preoccupied during the next question with both carving and imagining possible scenarios with Gherkin telling his kappa colony about all he had seen and experienced at Hogwarts. Truly, for the best, since Mitsuki had indeed faced a kappa without a cucumber and her methods, if one could even call them that, had not been effective. In any case, her second carved cucumber was finished and her name, middle and last since she rarely used her first, were present and accounted for.


Attention forward once again, the Ravenclaw found herself disappointed. Replicas, as realistic and believable as they may appear, were just simply that: replicas. Cucumber in hand, she turned her head towards Mercer under the presumption that he would be that classmate Professor Khanna suggested they work with. "Even numbers are unlucky," she noted while offering the "kappa" a cursory glance. Meaning they ought to select an odd one in an odd row. As to them being a duo, an unlucky even number, she just sprinkled some salt from her pocket on both of their left shoulders.

"Thanks, Professor. I'm..." Mercer waved his now-bandaged hand to show that he had miraculously been healed without any effort on his own part. That was one of the perks of being friends with a Misuki. The professor should get one for themself. "I'll come by later, promise."

Mercer turned his attention to an odd kappa and his partner, although he WAS concerned that she was calling him personally unlucky. Rude, really, because he was doing his best, even if he made them an even number. "I think we should just throw our cucumbers and see how it goes. We can get more creative after that, but honestly, if we don't throw them, I'm going to eat mine. And it isn't clean anymore, and my mom says the five second rule isn't actually a thing. I might get... tetanus."

But it took a lot of courage not to be scared.

Not really knowing how to make a kappa bow, and not being a particularly knowledgeable wizard, Brandon used his cucumbers. He knew he was right to make two! But now he would have preferred three or four or ten. Cucumbers ready, Brandon threw one at the nearest (he pretended it was the smallest) kappa. The other one was ready in case the kappa decided the first one wasn't enough or if another kappa decided to suck all the blood out of him (inside him was the only place his blood should be for sure). Did these things have real teeth? Would they fake kill him?

"Does anyone want to be my partner?" He promised he'd be useful!!! He just liked his chances better with a team against one fake kappa.

Once instructions were to put all her belongings in a bag and up towards the front of the class, she scurried to do just that, before wiggling with excitement at the thought of the rest of class.

The Kappas couldn't actually hurt her, Professor Khanna had just assured that, so shouldn't they just have fun with the activity? That was certainly what she intended to do! She wasn't hesitant to work alone, and yet hearing the first year who seemed a little more reluctant she decided there was no harm in partnering either. Approaching the boy in yellow (Brandon) and his selected Kappa, she grinned at him. "I'll work with you!" she could not promise she'd be useful. But she maybe could be fun! Stuffing her cucumber in her robe pocket, deciding to use that last while also seeing how it reacted to the cucumber already thrown, she decided to try to throw in her own theory too. "Why did the fly never land on the computer???" maybe she could work her way to 'What's in my pocket'.

Because... Cucumber.

This Kappa was, in fact, one of the slightly larger ones. Its eyes were locked on the prey, and thought it could not smell the blood pumping through the veins of the small boy, it knew what it had to do. The cucumber halted it in its tracks. It tilted its head from side to side as though trying to figure out what the green object was, but this only went so far. The Kappa only scooped it up in its webbed hand then continued advancing on poor Brandon.

What’s this?

Two prey? How delightful!

The Kappa bared its pointy teeth again. The words Vera was directing at it only seemed to irritate it, not distract it.

Uh oh. Try again before it pounced on you!


SPOILER!!: Bella! <3

Bella took a long steadying breath, made sure she had her wand close, and her signed cucumber, and then she went to stand in front of the kappa with a large pink bow around its neck. Unsure why she bowed a little towards the kappa before she took several steps towards it waiting for some reaction. Now what? Was she supposed to toss the cucumber when it moved?

This Kappa was smart. It refused to fall for your tricks, human! Aside from that, it was most certainly not a hippogriff. No one needed to bow to it, nor it to them. The Kappa only took another menacing step towards Bella. This time, its arms stretched out. Clearly it was reaching for her.

Watch out before it lunged at you!


SPOILER!!: Maxine! <3

Maxine felt way braver than she ever though she would - something about Defense Against the Dark Arts brought that out in her - just don't ask her to get a broom - her feet were ment to be frimly on the ground... ugh .. once again she got lost in her own thoughts. She needed to focus.

"Hey there Kappa friend" She said out loud - maybe they just needed to be friends. She got an idea to. Maxine took a big courtsey in front of the Kappa - who knows maybe it had manners and would bow back - that would make life easy - keeping her cucumber on the ready in case it didn't like her courtsey and made a move on her. She also had her wand at the ready.

Maxine’s Kappa had not an ounce of interest in being friends; it was only interested in her falling victim to it. Much like Bella’s Kappa, this one also had no interest in bows or curtseys. It let out an almighty growl, one that was enough to send chills up anyone’s spine. It took two quick steps towards Maxine, its eyes observing her as though deciding the best way to tackle the girl.

SPOILER!!: Mitsuki & Mercer!

“Ah, yes. I see that, Mr. Branxton.” They offered both students a smile. “Five points to Ravenclaw for assisting a classmate, I think, Ms. Rasting.” This was exactly what they meant when they had asked for students to keep an eye on each other earlier. With arrangements out of the way for Mercer to revisit the Kappa tomorrow, their attention drew back to Mitsuki. There was no judgement on their part in terms of the minor mistake. As far as they were concerned, these things happened and it was all a part of the learning process. They must note, though, that the Ravenclaw girl’s handiwork was quite neat.

Whatever your course of action, it was best to decide quickly. Would you need more salt to aid in the situation of the Kappa now reaching its outstretched arms towards you both, Mitsuki and Mercer? Would the cucumbers serve as a distraction? “GRRRRRRR!” growled the creature, webbed fingers inches from the students.

OOC: There's still three days left to jump in if you haven't already! <3

Which came first, the phoenix or the flame?

Brandon was relieved when an older student agreed to help him. "Thanks, Vera." Now he had a team, and he felt much more confident. Even if his teammate was asking the kappa riddles. Maybe that was useful? Nope, nevermind. "Why did the fly land on the computer?" he asked anxiously, wanting to know the answer even though the kappa didn't care. The kappa ignored the one cucumber... so he threw the other one too. Please like this one better! "Do you have a cucumber too?" he asked Vera, drawing his wand since he had no cucumbers anymore.

Not that he knew how to use it much. But it made him feel safer.

Huh? Did Khanna just say she was onto something?! Desiree blinked, pleasantly surprised by the professor’s praise. She half-expected to be way off the mark! She didn’t know much about DADA, but she did know her spells! Tucking that idea into the back of her mind for now, she listened to the instructions. They had to bring their bags to the front? Hmm, not where she thought this was going, but she’d bite.

All along, Desiree thought the activity was going to be taking turns feeding cucumbers to the kappa in the tank - Gherkin, as one of her classmates (Mercer) named him. She wondered why they needed to drop off their bags for that, but she obeyed anyway. Her blue eyes widened in amazement as Khanna wandlessly transformed the furniture into fake kappas. Wow, that was so cool! So much for feeding cucumbers then…

Desiree wasn’t sure whether the fake kappas were more or less scary than the real one, but she was glad Professor Khanna was around if she needed help. Knowing her, she probably would! She approached the nearest replica, already formulating a plan: create a distraction, then try to drain the water from the kappa’s head. Turning slightly to one side, so as to hide her wand while still keeping an eye on the kappa, she tucked the cucumber into the pocket of her robes. “Geminio,” she whispered, casting a duplication charm on the cucumber.

Tucking away the real cucumber as a failsafe, Desiree set the fake one on the floor in front of the replica, watching its reaction. Hopefully it would take the bait and bend down to pick up the fake cucumber…

Brandon really shouldn’t let Vera’s question distract him. “GRRRRRRRR!” The Kappa had opened its mouth to really let loose an almighty and intimidating growl though it was only slightly appeased by cucumber number two. Perhaps you bought some time to subdue it? Or perhaps a third cumber would do the charm? It was just possible this Kappas was glutton.

This Kappa was not really that brilliant. It did see her turn, and could have taken that moment to attack but… yes. It hadn’t thought of that. Its piercing gaze focused on Desiree, awaiting her move. Or was it sizing up the situation in an attempt to determine the best course of action? Did either of those questions matter when there was a CUCUMBER? Without a split second's hesitation, the Kappas was upon the vegetable. It cramped the thing into its mouth and began to chew.

Such deliciousness.



Dhruv was impressed by what they saw so far: from the teamwork to the talking of strategies to the shrewdness some students were demonstrating in order to distract the Kappas. It was all quite something. There were no red sparks so far despite the Kappas growls they were hearing. They weren’t going to call out encouraging words this time; there was no need to distract the students, after all. Their gaze remained fixed on the happenings unfolding before them while toying with his shades.


OOC: Making an early post this evening because I'm tired and literally falling asleep at my laptop. Buuut you guys have about forty nine hours left before we wrap things up :3

Perhaps she should be encouraging Mercer to join her for more of the Healers of Tomorrow meetings. He had the most curious understanding of how things worked that seemed to cause him unnecessary emotional strife. "You won't get tetanus from eating your cucumber," she stated gently, in case that was the parallel he was trying to draw as an excuse for why he should not eat the cylindrical fruit that was good for hydration and fiber among many other benefits. "It would be better for you to eat it than not." Especially with these kappa being replicas and therefore not truly requiring a cucumber for themselves. "And the probability of you getting tetanus from the clean, rust-free silver knife you used it quite low. You have a greater probability of contracting it on the grounds or working with the creatures in the barns should you have an open wound, comparatively."

So, he was quite safe presently. Nothing to fret about. And she wasn't about to ask about this five second rule since it apparently did not exist in the first place.

"You can eat my spare if you are partial to throwing the one you carved yourself." Since there was the spare one bearing the professor's name in her possession. "Though you did say that your bodily addition was meant as a treat to Gherkin." Gherkin who could actually appreciate it instead of one of the replicas.

Her attention did briefly drift towards Professor Khanna as he finished preparing herself and Mercer for the task ahead - a task they were already getting quite sidetracked from - and simply offered a small little bow before her attention resettled on Mercer.

"Okay," she agreed without question at their replica kappa reached out towards them and she lobbed the cucumber with her name carved into it underhand towards it. Perhaps, with some luck, it would land in the indent atop his head. She was subconsciously aiming for that area.

"It was afraid of the world wide web." Ba dum tss. She gave a quick smile at the younger Hufflepuff before attention turned back to their Kappa who certainly seemed very aggressive still. And not at all slowed by their cucumber attempts, and yet when Brandon asked if she had another, she still went to withdraw it. "What's in it's pockets?" She pulled out the green vegetable, tossing it towards the Kappa, her wand now withdrawn too. "If that one doesn't work too, maybe we want to try the knockback jinx like you mentioned earlier? See if we can slosh some of that water out of if it's nog?" He'd had a good idea - probably certainly more effective than hers.

"And the probability of you getting tetanus from the clean, rust-free silver knife you used it quite low. You have a greater probability of contracting it on the grounds or working with the creatures in the barns should you have an open wound, comparatively."

So, he was quite safe presently. Nothing to fret about. And she wasn't about to ask about this five second rule since it apparently did not exist in the first place.

"You can eat my spare if you are partial to throwing the one you carved yourself." Since there was the spare one bearing the professor's name in her possession. "Though you did say that your bodily addition was meant as a treat to Gherkin." Gherkin who could actually appreciate it instead of one of the replicas.

Her attention did briefly drift towards Professor Khanna as he finished preparing herself and Mercer for the task ahead - a task they were already getting quite sidetracked from - and simply offered a small little bow before her attention resettled on Mercer.

"Okay," she agreed without question at their replica kappa reached out towards them and she lobbed the cucumber with her name carved into it underhand towards it. Perhaps, with some luck, it would land in the indent atop his head. She was subconsciously aiming for that area.

A second or two more and the Kappa would have wrapped its webbed fingers around Mercer’s wrist, at which point the fourth year just might have had a difficult time escaping. The ‘creature’ saw the cucumber; in fact, its eyes followed it as it raced through the air… then…

SPLASH!!!!

There was one vegetable sitting in its head snugly after some of the water had spilt out when the cucumber landed. The Kappa was momentarily stymied in surprise.


SPOILER!!: Vera! <3

She pulled out the green vegetable, tossing it towards the Kappa, her wand now withdrawn too. "If that one doesn't work too, maybe we want to try the knockback jinx like you mentioned earlier? See if we can slosh some of that water out of if it's nog?" He'd had a good idea - probably certainly more effective than hers.

The Kappa didn’t get that riddle. Heck, it didn’t even like riddles. Silly human. That moment of silliness would cost yo- CUCUMBER NUMBER THREE!!! The Kappas was so focused on the third one, turning it over in its hands, staring at the name inscribed on it. In the process, it gulped down the first two cucumbers in a hungry flash.

Best make your move to ensure your survival.

If Mitsuki said that he couldn't get tetanus from a dirty cucumber, then she was probably right, but Mercer was still going to sacrifice it to the greater good anyway. It had all that good extra floor protein on it, it was already carved, plus it had that bloody thumbprint for flavor. Honestly, it had been really silly of Mitsuki to suggest eating it in the first place.

The spare, however, that was for snacking, and he would happily take it.

Those creepy hands were reaching for them already, and Mercer stuck out a pointer finger at the fake!kappa while Mitsuki chucked her cucumber. "Hey. Don't touch her, okay? Even if you're fake, she doesn't like being touched without permission." No one did, actually. That was just rude. He was startled as her cucumber made a direct hit, as was the fake!kappa, apparently. "Wait, what prize did we win?"

Watch out before it lunged at you!
Yikes! Bella shouldn't have bowed it seemed to enrage the fake kappa which was exactly what she didn't want to happen. Gulping, she stood motionless for a few minutes watching the kappa as it started to move towards her with outstretched arms. Scary, but don't panic Bella told herself as she took a better grip on her wand, and her signed cucumber. It was better to act then to stay here and get attacked wasn't it?

Professor K was here watching if things went south for her or one of the other students so Bella took a breath, and then lunged forwards tossing her cucumber as she ran towards the other side, aiming for the kappas head hoping the impact the cucumber maked would distract the kappa from her escape.

Uh... Brandon blinked at the riddle. Or joke. "That's very smart of it." Maybe he should have guessed that one, having a computer company CEO for a father. But he was sort of busy right now? The kappa was eating the cucumbers with his name on them. And staring at the one with her name on them. Did the cucumbers lose effect when eaten? Brandon was worried. "Flipendo," he murmured, shooting a decent knockback jinx at the kappa. He hoped for the water to spill out... or at least for it to get knocked away so he and Vera could escape.

Defending against these things was way harder than it sounded! Luckily, Brandon wasn't much of an underestimater.

Oh. Was that why cucumbers worked on the creature? Because it was a snack? But why did the inscribed name work?? She suddenly had a ton more questions but considering the kappa seemed distracted, maybe that was their cue to skedaddle. Which was what she was going to tell Brandon when he sent a knock back jinx and she waited with bated breath. "We should maybe considering running as soon as possible." she mentioned to her companion, assuming that was the best way to successfully do the escaping bit.

Desiree watched the fake kappa with a mixture of intrigue and apprehension. What would it do next? She gripped her wand, poised to react at any moment, but she relaxed slightly as she saw the kappa chewing away. She couldn't believe that actually worked! She half-expected the kappa would instantly recognize the cucumber she gave it as fake. Maybe fake kappas preferred fake cucumbers, who knew?

She had to admit the kappa looked kind of cute when it was eating… well, as cute as a big scary replica could be! It made her feel a bit guilty for tricking it and even guiltily for what she was about to do. It's not real, she had to remind herself. And if it was, it wouldn't hesitate to hurt you!

While the kappa was busy chewing, Desiree aimed her wand at the dent in its head. "Tergeo," she cast, keeping her eyes on the fake kappa all the while. Did her spell work? If it didn't, she still had the real cucumber to give. Though she'd probably give it to the kappa anyway as a peace offering/consolation prize!

Hope was a good carver, but was excited to try the magical method. "Scri-bere!" she uttered, one, two, three...five times, and was excited to see the letters of her name slowly form on her cucumber--HOPE.

Then she paused. For the first time in her life, she was disappointed that she had been given her mother's maiden name for a middle name, because there were so many letters in 'Merriweather'! Laboriously she carved letter after letter--this was not so fun after a while, when the novelty had worn off. Then finally the last (which also was longer than it could have been), and eventually, finally, ARCHARD joined the other two names on her cucumber. "Whew! I almost ran out of cucumber!" she exclaimed to herself, not realizing that she had spoken out loud.

On approaching the kappas, Hope tried to pick the smallest one available, hoping it wouldn't be too strong for her. Even though her mind knew that these were fake kappas, her gut was reacting with fight or flight syndrome as if they were real (they did look very fierce). "Here, kappa!" she called out to the creature in front of her, as she bowed and backed away from it at the same time. Because the shield charm was the only one she'd mastered so far, so she wanted as much distance between her and the kappa as possible. Besides Protego, the only other plan she'd come up with was running away, which might be difficult in this crowded space.

Hope had pretty good aim usually, but she was under stress, so her cucumber flew straight at the kappas's head, travelling along with a lot more force than she'd intended.

The Kappa didn’t care about being rude; it just wanted to drink human blood! You, little human boy, would be first!! Just as soon… as soon as it grabbed this cucumber. Webbed fingers began groping atop its head until… AH HAH!! A tasty treat!!!! The Kappa began to nibble daintily at one edge of the vegetable.

It was almost to the girl when the human pelted him. The object bounced off the side of its head, something which angered the Kappa even further. In turn, it let out a shriek/growl that would make any adult jump out of their skin. It could see Bella making her escape and started after her. If not for the cucumber it stepped on then she would have been a goner. But it was distracted now, cucumber in hand. It was staring at the name as though mesmerised by the penmanship.

The inscribed name worked as a protection for the person’s name etched on the cucumber. So if the Kappa ate your cucumber then congrats! You were safe! But what if you were with company? What if the Kappa never ate the other cucumbers with said company’s name? It was best to do exactly what this duo did: distract the Kappa then strike it with a spell. It was knocked off its feet, an act that sent it rolling like a tumbleweed twice. In the process, the water spilt from its head. The Kappa laid on its middle completely still and weak.

Well done!

The Kappa truly believed this to be a real cucumber. It was perfectly happy and content with its fake. Though… it was still hungry. Another of the vegetables would be exactly what it nee - weak. The Kappa was suddenly feeling drained. Literally. The remainder of the fake cucumber dropped to the floor just as the Kappa dropped to its knees. With a dramatic yowl, it flopped onto its back, its fingers feebly moving at its side.

Congratulations!

Luckily Hope managed to make her name fit. After all, the more effective this will be should the Kappa choose to eat it. With the green vegetable lobbed at it, the Kappa took a moment to pause, and with the accuracy of a wicketkeeper in the game of cricket, caught the cucumber. HOWZAH!!! It was distracted now; this meant this was the perfect moment to cast your spell.



Dhruv straightened up, hooking their shades back onto their shirt in the process. As much as they were enjoying the activity, the time for the lesson was up. With some hand movements, the Kappa replicas came to an abrupt and eerie stillness, exactly in the positions they were currently in as though frozen in time. “That’s all for today, class. I must say, many of you displayed great use of initiative and strategy regardless if you worked in teams or not. When faced with such situations in the real world, it is imperative that you keep your focus so that you can come up with a game plan.

“You may retrieve your belongings. There will be no homework from this lesson.”
It was a treat from them, if you will, for impeccable work done today. To answer Mercer’s earlier question… “Be sure to retrieve one of these keychains from my desk.” They held up one of the Kappa shaped keychains which was the prize they had mentioned earlier. Dhruv had always intended on giving each student one regardless if they had written the right creature name down at the start of the lesson. “They’re charmed to detect Kappa presence within a twenty feet radius. When it does, it will light up and vibrate to get your attention.” Which explained why the one they were holding, and all the others sitting on their desk were doing just that: it was because of Gherkin’s presence after all. “Don’t forget to say goodbye to our friend Gherkin before departing."

Gherkin, who was now swimming lazily in his tank, clearly bored.




OOC: I had so much fun with your brainbabies, my people Thank you for playing, thank you for helping me have a successful return-to-staff lesson The thread will remain open for about 7 hours if you want to post your student leaving!

Brandon felt a rush of power as he and Vera defeated the kappa. He looked at it, and then he felt very sad. It looked all messed up. "Is it going to be okay, professor?" he whispered. "I guess it's not even real. But still?" He wanted to be told that he didn't really really hurt the fake kappa by accident. Even though it was only a construction, it made his heart all hurt. But he didn't want to admit it, because normal people didn't pity dark-creature-replica-robots. But it LOOKED real and it LOOKED hurt to him.

He did like getting presents. This one was cute AND useful in case he ever saw a real kappa and had to defend himself. But still, he was worried about his fake kappa!!!

The success of seeing the creature inkappacitated was a very short lived victory, as the way the poor thing had landed - water sloshed and now looking so... Hurt, had her feeling similarly to Brandon. Which was what encouraged her to squeeze the young Hufflepuff's shoulder in empathy for what he was feeling. But she also didn't like feelings, so despite the fact she wanted to stay and hear Khanna's answer, she instead chose to not dilly dally and collect her belongings - new keychain included.

"Thanks, Professor Khanna! See you next lesson!" or duelling club meeting. She wasn't sure which would be first. One last glance towards their replikappa and some funny faces to Gherkin for good measure before making her way out.
