Default Transfiguration II: Baby Hat transfiguration

As you move into the Transfiguration lesson today, you will notice that the usual moses baskets that Professor Eris has had on hand so far through term are at the side of the room as usual. Please take one for your Muggle Studies baby, so that there will be minimal disruption to today’s seminar.

The table’s are set up in pairs and as such the Professor has helpfully written on the board;
Quote:

Afterall, if everyone who is taken part is co-parenting, there may not be anyone free to sit with those who do not take Muggle Studies…. But if that is the case, never fear. He had already spoken to Professor Schmoe, and he had several spare babies that could be used for the purpose of today’s lesson. It wouldn’t affect their grade in his class, it was simply another learning tool.

As you look past the blackboard, you will see that the Professor himself is cradling a baby who is burrowed in her cozy fleecey blanket. He looked at home, holding her weight easily with one hand as he rested on the edge of his desk ready to welcome you all in for your lesson. Having had breakfast and your first classes already, he’s hoping you’re bright eyed and bushy tailed. Yes? Good.

Come on in, class will start at 10am sharp.


OOC: Hello!! Welcome back for your second Transfiguration lesson. Apologies for the lack of proper warning, work caught up on me. <3 I’ll be moving us on after I get home from work tomorrow, so around 18 hours time (5-6pm GMT on Sunday).

Come on in, find a partner or make it clear that your character doesn’t have a “kiddo” of their own. If they do, let us know their names cause Carwyn and I are curious

Lesson
- Question One
- Question Two

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

With her confidence elevating, Claudine was ready to create another hat but first… she fit the first completed hat on the sleeping Christopher’s head. It was a little big and drifted down to hover over his closed eyelids. Claudine carefully chucked it up so that it fit better. She’d have to keep an eye on it so that it didn’t become a bother to Christopher.

Now another fabric piece was set before her. This time, the girl envisioned a bubblegum pink hat with red roses sewn onto it at intervals. “Tectum Caput.” The usual was done: clockwise circle then touched the tip of her wand to the fabric. The most important element was also done: a very clear picture of what she wanted the hat to look like was kept in mind.

Unfortunately, not a thing happened. But was Claudine deterred? Not in the slightest. She would just keep trying.

And trying.

And trying.


Until…

“Tectum Caput.”

Success.

Colour this little Snakette proud.

"Reverte!" Isla said, pointing her wand toward the attempted hat. Well, it had turned into a pretty good looking hat, but again, it was waaaay too big for Ellie. The hat turned itself back into a piece of fabric lying flat before her.

For the second time, Isla pictured a cream colored hat, but this time, she spared a glance toward Ellie and really got a good feel for the size of her baby's head. Then she turned back to the fabric and gave it her undivided attention. "Tectum Caput!" she called out. She moved her wand into a single, clockwise circle and then tapped forward.

There was a scuffle of fabric as the spell was attempting to work its magic. A few seconds later, another hat lie before her. It looked the same as the one before, but there was only one way to tell if it fit Ellie. She picked up the hat and placed it on her baby's head. A few adjustments later, and it was a perfect fit!

Awesome! Now she could maybe spend some time making hats for the other babies, too!

Looking at Mila she wondered what color the baby would look good in, she figured all, but what color would she want to see her in. Since both Ewan and she were Ravenclaw, maybe a cute blue one would look nice. Looking at the fabric she pictured the hat and the color just like she wanted. She would start with something easy and plain just for practice, but then she had other thoughts once she did it a few times.

"Tectum Caput" She said very clearly and with the correct movement. The fabric started to move and the color that she had in mind started to show. She looked at the hat and then at the little one. "I think I made it too small." The doll wasn't asleep, but she was being good for now so Chloe took the hat to try on.

Seeing that it was too small she reversed the spell to try again.

Carwyn was once again doing his rounds, mostly silent as he walked between the students unless they looked like they needed his input. He smiled as he saw that Chloe had managed to make a hat of her own. He congratulated her, even as she tried again. ”That's okay, practice makes perfect. Just try again, aiming for a little bigger and then you can move on to the second hat.” No need to make them perfect, especially when premature babies could be tiny. Someone would get the use of the hats they created.

SPOILER!!: Minjae

He watched the demonstration carefully as the professor transfigured the fabric in to a cream colored hat. It was not the color he would personally choose for a hat though. Telling himself that he could do this, the Hufflepuff took in the shape of the dolls head and while he tried to envision how big the hat was supposed to be, Minjae picked his wand back up and pointed it at the fabric.

Since his favorite color was teal, the Hufflepuff decided to go with that color. If this worked out, he could try and make a bigger hat later on and they would have matching hats! He circled his wand clockwise and said "Tectum Caput" he said, trying to focus with all of his might to transfigure the fabric.

Nothing happened. He wasn't surprised either though. He had never been able to successfully transfigure anything at the first try."Tectum Caput" nothing again. He tried and tried again but apart from the fabric changing color once and it not even being the color had wanted, Minjae placed his wand back on the table.

What was he doing wrong? Was it his focus? Or did he not visualize correctly? Maybe there was something wrong with his wand? He picked it up and began to look it over. Apart from a few scratches it looked fine to him. He pointed at the fabric, circled clockwise and said the incantation.

This time, something had happened but not what he had wanted. There was a flash of bright light, Minjae shielded his eyes and when it went out he let out a panicked yell as he slid off the chair sideways and on to the ground. He had successfully vanished not one but two! of his chair legs~

He was strangely proud of that...

He had just finished talking to Chloe when he heard a clatter behind him. Twisting on his heel, he found Minjae on the floor, chair on its side with ...…. Two?????? …… legs missing??? He stood for a split second, before glaring at anyone who was laughing. ”Everyone, concentrate on your work.” He said to the room as a whole before moving over to Minjae.

”Are you okay, Minjae?” He crouched down beside him, moving the broken chair so that he wouldn’t be hindered when moving to stand up. ”What happened?” He asked even as he tapped the chair with his wand and corrected its leg-issue. There… That was better, but how that even happened, Carwyn wouldn’t know unless he listened to the Hufflepuff so he stopped splitting his attention and paid attention to Minjae.

SPOILER!!: Isla

Hopefully...

Isla didn't even know what color hat she'd like Ellie to have, but she kind of liked the cream colored hat the professor made. It looked like it would match any other color Ellie wore, whereas something like pink probably wouldn't. So cream it would be, and that was exactly what Isla pictured. Would it possible to make a hat with a pretty little flower or something? Maybe she'd try that later or something.

She stood before her fabric and pictured the same cream color the professor had created. "Tectum Caput!" she called out. She made a medium-sized clockwise circle around the fabric then tapped it. When all was said and done, she was super proud of the fact that she'd created a hat, but it was waaaaay too big for Ellie's head. That should be an easy fix, though. At least she'd made the hat!

As he stood back up from talking to Minjae, righting the chair he smiled as he noticed Isla had a hat on her desk. [b]”Very nice, Isla. I like your hat.”[/color] He grinned at her a little, noting that it was the same neutral colour as his own had been. ”You still have time to create the next one.” He informed her patiently. Plenty of time. He’d have appreciated the fact her second hat had been a better fit than the first if he had seen her second try, but he hadn’t seen the change from the first hat to the second. The second looked good though!

SPOILER!!: Claudine

Now she was looking at the different patterns of fabric on her desk. It was time to get started.

The girl peeked at the sleeping Christopher, at his head, to be exact. It wasn’t a big head, it wasn’t a small one. Then again, what did she know about the usual sizes of babies’ heads? Her artistic mind was portraying a light purple beanie with horizontal white stripes on it.

“Tec-’’

She turned her head so fast that she cricked her neck. There was Minjae on the ground with two of his chair legs missing. Claudine stifled a laugh. It was a far way, vanishing chair legs instead of creating baby hats.

“Tectum Caput.” The hat was pictured as clearly as could be and she made the clockwise circle then touched the tip of her wand to the first piece of cloth. She was unsurprised to find nothing happened; this seemed to be a norm with her spellwork. But she was trying again by repeating the steps. Her second attempt was a little better. At least the fabric turned purple. “Reverte.’’

“Tectum Caput.” The appropriate movement was done and would you know it? There was a hat sitting on her desk exactly as she had pictured.

Claudine was so very pleased with herself.

His ”Everyone, concentrate on your work.” had included Claudine, and a few others who had either stifled a laugh or had laughed out right - but when he moved in her direction he was proud to see that there was a purple baby hat sitting on her desk. ”Good work, Claudine.” He was proud to see that she had focused on the task at hand. He watched her place it on her sleeping baby, before he quietly watched her try and retry to make her second hat - but when it appeared on the desk instead of the square of fabric… well, he chuckled softly. ”That’s a cute design.” He smiled at her before he moved on. Oh yes, he knew she was more artistic than he was and if anyone was going to manage a designed hat, she would. He remembered her Halloween sketches afterall.

SPOILER!!: Bernadette

"Tec-toom KAAA-pooot," Bernie said, moving her wand in a quick clockwise circle and then tapping the fabric square. Aww, cute! It worked! She beamed at the red hat she had, and wondered if she should try to wake Finneas up by attempting to jam it on his head. It DID look a little small still... maybe she should try another one.

Bernie picked up another bit of fabric; this one was blue and purple. "TEC-toom KAA-poot!" she cast again, with the swirl of her wand. YAY! Another hat, this one slightly bigger. She really really REALLY wanted Finneas to wear one of these hats...

Yes, the Professor heard your laughing Bernadette - his ”Everyone, concentrate on your work.” - was said to you as well. However, by the time he had made his way around the classroom to see her work both hats were sitting on her desk in front of her and he smiled at both the red hat and the second blue & purple hat. ”Good work, Bernadette. I especially like the blue and purple one.” He nodded before moving on.

SPOILER!!: Heath

Unfortunately, confidence was the last thing he felt right now, so he did the thing he always did when he needed to project an emotion he didn’t feel: try to act the part. Concentrating on a time when he felt truly confident, he said with as much force as he could muster, “TEC-toom kap-OOT!” There… Was that better? He hoped it was, as they were moving on to something else.

Heath kept his eyes on Professor Eris throughout the spell demonstration, hanging on to the man’s every word. He looked at Leia, wondering what kind of hat he should make her. Ooh, he had it! He’d make her an ewok hat so she could match her favorite toy! For a moment, he considered removing the hat she was already wearing to use as a size guide, but he decided against it. He didn’t want Leia to start crying and distract everyone! He had just raised his wand to try casting the spell when a yell caused his dark head to turn in the direction of the sound, and he saw an older Hufflepuff (Minjae) on the ground. Unlike some of the other students, Heath didn’t find anything funny about that. He knew how humiliating it was to be laughed at, and besides, he wasn’t very good at transfiguration himself, so who was he to judge? He shot the other boy a quick look of sympathy before turning back to his work, or he would’ve except…

Now Leia was awake. Great… so much for not distracting everyone! Stifling a frustrated sigh, Heath picked up the now wailing doll. Sorry! Sorry, everybody! He thought, casting an apologetic look around the room as he gently rocked the fussy baby in his arms until her cries stopped. If there was a bright side to having Leia start crying in the middle of class, it was that it gave Heath the chance to take off her hat as he returned her to her basket. He traced the opening of the hat with his wand a couple of times to get a feel for the size before turning his attention to the first fabric square on his desk. It was an ugly beige color with - he didn’t even want to know what kind of stain was on it! Visualizing an orange hat with two rounded brown ears attached to the top on each side, he made a clockwise circle with his wand in what he hoped was the same size as Leia’s head and touched the material with the tip. “TEC-toom kap-OOT,” he enunciated.

Before his eyes, the fabric square was gone; in its place was an orange hat with little brown ears, exactly like he’d imagined. Heath blinked in surprise, picking up the hat just to make sure it was really there. Did he really just get a spell right on the first try? That had never happened to him before! Now to see if it fit… “Leia, look what I’ve got for you,” he whispered, gently placing the new hat atop her head. It was a little big, but not so much so as to be unuseable. He was going to call that a success, and so, it seemed, was Leia! No sooner than he put the hat on her that she started making happy baby sounds. Heath smiled. “See? Now you look just like Mr. Ewok!”

One hat down, but he still had one more to go. Heath reluctantly turned his attention back to the stack of fabric squares on his desk. Now what kind of hat should he make for the hospital? His first thought was to make a green hat with Yoda ears, but then he remembered most people at St. Mungo’s wouldn’t know who Yoda was. Maybe he was on to something though… he couldn’t do a Star Wars creature hat, but what about a magical creature? Suddenly an idea came to him: a green hat with little leaves at the top like a bowtruckle’s. Concentrating on his vision, Heath made the wand movement and said, “Tectum Caput!” And… nothing happened. Ugh, he should’ve guessed his earlier success was only beginner’s luck!

He tried again; this time the fabric took the shape of a baby hat, but its original pattern (huge pink polka dots on a neon yellow background) remained. Maybe if he tried a different piece of fabric? Heath picked up another piece of fabric to try again; the square turned green this time, but it kept its shape. What was he doing wrong? He’d already done the spell once, so why couldn’t he do it again? Was it his pronunciation? His wand movement? No, he was doing everything exactly as he’d done it the first time, except… His first design was inspired by Star Wars, something he knew inside and out, so he knew he could visualize it. Maybe the change in design changed his confidence?

Heath decided to try a different design, but what? He thought for a minute. What about a cat, a gray one with black and white stripes like Rey (his cat, not the Star Wars character)? That should be easier to envision than a creature he’d only ever seen in books! Picturing a gray striped hat with cat ears clearly in his mind, Heath made the clockwise circle with his wand and touched the fabric one more time. “Tectum Caput!” He did it, finally!

By the time he made his way to Heath, his baby was already wearing a new hat - matching the plushie he had seen Heath handing over earlier. If he wasn’t already a family man missing his own family, seeing the baby doll with such a cute new hat on definitely would have made him miss his great-grandkids. Looking at the desk, Carwyn chuckled slightly as he saw a few hats on Heath’s desk, as well as a newly created grey hat with cat ears. ”Very cute, Heath.” Even if the young man had obviously not been happy with the second and third hats, they were suitable for donating - and they looked cute even if they hadn’t been what the man had been aiming for.


”Well done everyone!” Carwyn called out as he made his way back to his desk, where the rest of the fabric squares were in a neat pile beside him. On the other side of the desk, there was an empty wicker basket.

“Now, this spell can be used to transfigure various hats for your babies - sun hats to protect them from the sun or wooly hats to protect them from the chill. Truly, it can be changed depending on the season or even the weather outside… afterall, we can have all four seasons in a single day up here.” In Scotland. Nothing was ever constant, and the weather liked to trick you into the wrong type of clothing. Nice in the morning? It’ll rain after lucnh. Raining in the morning? It’ll be scorching by dinner time. The weather was a bizarre thing.

”Now we have ten minutes left, so I want to see how many baby hats you can come up with. Be adventurous with your styles, your colours and with the personal flair you put on your transfigurations. Remember that this is one of the most creatively freeing aspects of transfiguring your clothes; the patterns and designs will only be limited by what you can conjure. He looked them over with a nod.

”Remember, you will be keeping one hat for your baby doll, and the rest can be put into this basket and they will be donated to St Mungo’s.” He grinned, yes, didn’t it feel good to help tiny babies? ”You likely have some extra fabric in front of you, but there is spare material on my desk.” He stood up and made a motion for them all to get back to work. ”Try to see how many you can transfigure in the next ten minutes.”

OOC: We’re coming up to the end now! Just the mini activity to go now. Have fun creating as many hats as you think your characters would manage, and they will all be IC passed on to St Mungo’s by Carwyn <3

Thank you for coming! I’ll be looking in over the next day or so but the thread will be closing on Monday night at some point between 9pm and 11pm GMT.

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

When Eris had reprimanded them, Claudine had wanted to laugh even more. Like really, really laugh out loud. She couldn’t help it; sometimes serious situations were funny for her. She had bitten down on her lower lip as she tried to get a grip on herself and eventually she had. She’d like to think that Eris’s encouragement went a long way in helping her transfigure two hats and she smiled up at the man. “Thank you,’’ she murmured. Could they always have professors who were so encouraging?

Now she was eyeing the hats she had created. They were mainly for the winter weather but that wasn’t a bad thing, right? She just had one more hat in mind- a winter one- before she would switch to sunny hats. The third piece of fabric was before her now.

“Tectum Caput.” The incantation was so familiar now and the wand movement came naturally. Claudine really felt at home with this spell. There were a few hiccups which led her to ‘Reverte’ the cloth back to its original form. It was on her fourth attempt that there was success.

There was now a rainbow coloured hat sitting on her desk, complete with a rainbow coloured fluffy thingy at the top for extra cuteness. In her mind, this would be perfect for a baby born to same-gender parents. <3

"Thank you, professor," Bernie murmured, again pretending to be busy and not giggly. She REALLY wanted to jam a hat on Finneas' head, but the professor said they could have one for their babies, so she'd just save one for him. She wanted a red one for him in particular, since he was a GRYFFINDOR baby, so she selected a red scrap of fabric for her next hat.

"Tec-toom KAAA-pooot," the second year again cast in her emphasized way. AHA. Perfect. This hat looked JUST RIGHT for Finneas. Bernie got to work on the next hat, which she would give to St. Mungo's.

Isla had kind of gotten the hang of this now. She'd made the hat that Ellie would wear, so now it didn't really matter what the size was, as long as it looked like it would fit a baby. That baby didn't have to necessarily be Ellie.

...and it wouldn't be, because this next one was going in the St. Mungo's box!

She did, in fact, have some extra fabric by her, so there was no point in collecting anymore right now. She knew what color she wanted this next hat to be, too---green! Why green? Well, because Isla was a Slytherin, and she wanted to put something relating to her into this next hat. The new baby would have no idea, but it was the thought that counted, right?

Isla placed the fabric directly in front of her and imagined a hot pink color. No, no--light pink! That seemed more like a little baby. "Tectum Caput!" she said. She went through all the wand movements again, and within seconds, a pretty pink hat was before her. Pleased that she was getting the hang of things, she decided that if time allowed, she might even make a third hat. In the meantime, she placed her hat in the donation basket and headed back to her seat.

A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself.

While he sat there, with one leg half draped over the chair with the missing two legs and his bum on the floor, Minjae heard the stifled laughter of a few students around him and he laughed as well. He would have been them if the roles had been reversed, plus he wasn't hurt. Only a bit shocked.

"I'm fine, Professor" he said with a wave of his hand as he watched him repair the chair and he stood up, dusting his Hufflepuff robe off with his hands. "Lost my balance?" he shrugged. "I don't know, maybe i said the incantation wrong or something?" He was rather gifted in vanishing things without knowing how he did it..."Sorry about that..."

He stooped down to pick up his wand from the floor before taking a seat on the freshly repaired chair and looked around. His fall didn't make him feel embarrassed but what did was the fact that he saw Isla and Claudine making a hat after hat. How did they do it? And why did he have trouble with it?

Concentrating on the fabric, Minjae visualized once again a teal colored woolen hat with a pom pom on top of it , rotated his wand clockwise and said "Tectum Caput" The fabric shifted on his desk, the color changed in to a yellow one and ...thats it. Uuuuugh!

"Tectum Caput!" he waved his wand again. "Tectum Caput, Tectum caput, Tectum Caput...." feeling frustrated that he wasn't able to transfigure a hat AT ALL, Minjae put his wand back inside of his pocket and leaned back in his chair, folding his arms over each other as he did so and sulked. Stupid spell.

Heath beamed, blushing slightly when Professor Eris said his hat was cute. “Thank you, sir,” he replied. So were they done making hats now? Apparently not. Heath looked up from his desk long enough to pay attention to the professor’s next set of instructions: transfigure as many hats as possible in the next ten minutes. He bit his lower lip, lost in thought. This wasn’t a competition to see who could make the most hats, was it? Like, there wasn’t a prize or extra house points at stake… Knowing him, he’d fail miserably and let everyone down if that was the case!

Heath took a deep breath, turning his attention back to his work. He looked at his failed attempts and wondered if he should try again for a bowtruckle-inspired hat. No, he decided. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. He’d stick with something he knew he could do: cat hats. What color cat should he try now? He looked at the last fabric square remaining on his desk. It was a weird sort of orangey-brown color. Ooh, that gave him an idea! He’d try an orange tabby cat hat… sort of like the gray one he did earlier, only orange with white stripes.

Concentrating as hard as he could on his design, Heath made the clockwise circle wand movement and touched his wand to the material. “Tectum Caput!” DId that work? He examined the result. It was definitely a hat. It had cat ears, and it was orange… but it didn’t have the white stripes like he’d pictured. Heath frowned, slightly disappointed by the lack of stripes, but at least he got the color and the ears right. While not exactly what he wanted, it was close enough to donate.

As he set the orange cat hat beside the gray one he made earlier, a thought occurred to him. What if his cat hats went to a set of twins? That would be so cute!

She smiled up at the professor, did he know he was really helping her confidence today and after the time she had been having lately it was nice to have the confidence build a bit. "I'll remember that professor, thank you."

Turning to the fabric again she decided to try more of a flowery design with some pinks and purples. Doing the wand movement, "Tectum Caput" and she watched as the fabric transformed into the cutest white hat with purple and pink flowers. Slipping it on Mila's head it had worked perfectly and the doll looked cute in it. 'What do you think Ewan?" Her eyes moving to her partner in the muggle studies project as he worked on his own hat.

Turning back to the fabric she thought about the one she needed to make for St. Mungo's. Maybe she'd make two. One could be for a little girl and the other a boy. "Tectum Caput" She said and did the movement as she thought about another cute little purple hat. This time with cats.

The fabric turned and soon there was a cute purple hat with little cats on it.

She’d like to think that Eris’s encouragement went a long way in helping her transfigure two hats and she smiled up at the man. “Thank you,’’ she murmured. Could they always have professors who were so encouraging?

Now she was eyeing the hats she had created. They were mainly for the winter weather but that wasn’t a bad thing, right? She just had one more hat in mind- a winter one- before she would switch to sunny hats. The third piece of fabric was before her now.

“Tectum Caput.” The incantation was so familiar now and the wand movement came naturally. Claudine really felt at home with this spell. There were a few hiccups which led her to ‘Reverte’ the cloth back to its original form. It was on her fourth attempt that there was success.

There was now a rainbow coloured hat sitting on her desk, complete with a rainbow coloured fluffy thingy at the top for extra cuteness. In her mind, this would be perfect for a baby born to same-gender parents. <3

She wanted a red one for him in particular, since he was a GRYFFINDOR baby, so she selected a red scrap of fabric for her next hat.

"Tec-toom KAAA-pooot," the second year again cast in her emphasized way. AHA. Perfect. This hat looked JUST RIGHT for Finneas. Bernie got to work on the next hat, which she would give to St. Mungo's.

...and it wouldn't be, because this next one was going in the St. Mungo's box!

She did, in fact, have some extra fabric by her, so there was no point in collecting anymore right now. She knew what color she wanted this next hat to be, too---green! Why green? Well, because Isla was a Slytherin, and she wanted to put something relating to her into this next hat. The new baby would have no idea, but it was the thought that counted, right?

Isla placed the fabric directly in front of her and imagined a hot pink color. No, no--light pink! That seemed more like a little baby. "Tectum Caput!" she said. She went through all the wand movements again, and within seconds, a pretty pink hat was before her. Pleased that she was getting the hang of things, she decided that if time allowed, she might even make a third hat. In the meantime, she placed her hat in the donation basket and headed back to her seat.

Carwyn moved around the room, not really interrupting their work as everyone worked to create their hats. He leant on the edge of his desk after he had done one last walk around. He couldnt help the smole that teased his lips at the determination so many of the students were displaying. He hadn't even given up on Minjae. (... Well, until he seemed to stop trying and stopped crossing his arms in what seemed to Carwyn like a huff).

Looking at the clock, he called out softly. "Work on your last hat now, then start to tidy up, everyone." Carwyn paused and straightened up, moving the wicker basket to the middle of the desk. "Thank you all for your hard work today... Remember to come and put your spare hats in the basket for St Mungo's." he was proud with what they had accomplished today.


ooc: hi loves. Have a few more hours to finish up, and I'll close this thread around 6.30am gmt before I head to work. Thank you all for coming it's been fun!

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

Claudine was on her last piece of fabric now. So far, she had created a few extras and she was continuously feeling pleased with herself. For her last hat, she’d transfigure this cloth into a sunny one. She absently drummed her fingers on the desk as the image for the hat was conjured in her mind. It would have a brim like a cap but the difference was, this brim would go all around the hat instead of just the front. The would be egg-yolk yellow while the brim would be sky blue.

“Tectum Caput.” It was to Claudine’s delight that the spell worked for her on the very first attempt. It was rare that she became so adept to one in such a short time. With her poker face back on (even though she was still proud of herself), she packed up her belongings then headed towards the basket to drop the extra hats off. She also returned the moses basket, Christopher was now held over her shoulder.

“Bye, Professor.’’

It had been a great lesson.
