| Term 16: June - September 2007 Term Sixteen: Baby Cries |
05-29-2007, 09:39 PM
| | Professor Erikson's Office The Herbology office had been strangely redecorated. Stepping in there are sounds of Mozart and Beethoven, for those who would recognize it. Most often playing is Moonlight Sonata. The walls are lined with black velvet, draped in blue and silver cloth. The atmosphere is dark and humid with exotic plants all around, small suns hanging over each one in different intensities. Some are rare, and some don't look familiar at all. At the back of the office is an oak desk with dark varnish and a black marble top. The chairs are dark oak with plush blue velvet and silver trim.
Behind the desk sits Professor Erikson, smiling softly and inviting you in. He's fairly pale for someone who works outdoor often (though fairly normal for the average person), with contrasting long black hair. Some of it falls into his face, but the rest is pulled back in a low ponytail. His soft blue eyes are accepting of the questions you have. As you have a seat he lowers the music volume.
"Yes, childe?" |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Hugo Jermaine Woods Seventh Year | avant-garde Mrs. Nick Jonas Cora skipped towards Professor Erikson's classroom, clutching a package. She rapped softly on the door and peered around it.
"Hullo Professor Erikson!" She said, grinning. "I made you something." She placed the package on his desk, her eyes twinkling mysteriosly. She knew what Professor Erikson liked.
It was a cheesecake, studded with glistening raspberries.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Hugo Jermaine Woods Seventh Year | avant-garde Mrs. Nick Jonas Cora grinned. "Well, I'm going to feel bad for the cheesecake incident until I leave, so every term, I'm going to have to make you one!" She laughed, her eyes twinkling cheekily.
"Anyway. I won't keep you any longer! But I'm looking forward to the lessons!" She beamed and then skipped out.

Hermy walked past the Herbology office, and a sound piece of classical music caught her attention. It was a piece she had been trying to learn and tackle on the piano all summer, but the middle section had proved to difficult a task for her to complete before coming back to Howarts. She stood, drifting away with the beautiful tones of the Moonlight Sonata. Her fingers twitching in the patterns she had tried so hard to play.
Coming back to her senses, Hermy knocked on the Professor's door, intrigued.

Slade Erikson Mysteries | Slytherin by heart Erikson glanced up from his desk, and the cheesecake thereupon, and raised a brow at the door. "Please enter," he called, his voice magically being announced to the other side of the door. Which, he noticed with passing interest, he never got around to replacing with titanium.

Hermy opened the door nervously. It was the first time she'd been into a Professor's office, despite it being her fourth year and Hogwarts, and her heart pounded through nerves at what might be inside. The growing sound of the gentle music calmed her, and she stepped inside.
Professor Erikson was at his desk, complete with a cheesecake, but Hermy glanced round the room, looking for a source of the music, but equally ntoing the strange and exotic plants. "The Moonlight Sonata," she said simply, before pausing to listen again. "So beautiful. Well, unless I'm playing it...I tried learning it over the summer, but only managed the first two pages." She looked down at her feet. Hermy had always done well and achieved what she aimed for. To not finish learning that piece hung heavily over her. Maybe Hogwarts had a piano somewhere.
Looking up again, Hermy realised she had no other particular reason to be there, she'd just been drawn there due to the music. Smiling, she thought about Herbology. "Are we liking to be doing any more genetics work this term?" she asked. "I really enjoyed that, I have a feeling my brain is more adept at science and logical subjects."

Ministry RPG Name:
Nikolai Vannacutt | Nabs!Ama | | The Happy Hufflepuff An owl swooped in and dropped a piece of parchment on the Professor's desk. Written on it in a loopy handwriting are the following words: Quote:
You are invited to a special
Tarot Reading Party
to be held at the North Tower
on Friday Evening.
- Natasha Blaylock
P.S. Come with an open mind!
Another piece of parchment was attached to the invitation, and it read: Quote: Dearling,
I know you may wish to stay away from Tarot readings after last term...but you'll need to watch Damian while I conduct the readings. Or, since you showed such talent for it, you could conduct the readings instead.
With love,
Tash. |

Slade Erikson Mysteries | Slytherin by heart Erikson smiled, nodding. "The Moonlight Sonata is a difficult piece. I've seen teachers and masters struggle with pieces of it when first starting. It's beautiful, but depressing." He turned down the music a little more and gestured for her to sit down.
"As for the genetics work, I'm afraid there isn't much more we can cover here. There are multiple permits that are required from the Ministry just to clear what should be considered confidential and what can be taught in the school. I would suggest aiming for Unspeakable in the Ministry."
He watched the invitation being dropped on his desk and raised a brow, opening it and reading both pieces of parchment. With a nod he returned them to the envelope and slid it into his desk.

| Lowsee ☆ The Joker ☆ Fantastic Baby! ☆ HufflyPuffly Slowly making his way from the school to the grounds, Leo made his way towards the Greenhouses, where he knew the Herbology Professor would be. Thinking and re-thinking about what he'll say, he took a deep breath, hoping everything would go well.
Making it to the Man's office, his hand zoomed in his hair. Is this the right moment? Well he should tell him sooner or later, and sooner would be better. Taking one deep breath, he knocked the door, waiting for Erikson to open. |

| Lowsee ☆ The Joker ☆ Fantastic Baby! ☆ HufflyPuffly Leo nervously smiled at the Professor. "Hey Professor." he said as he ruffled his hair, wondering how in the world he should say what was on his mind. Walking into the room, he heard a soft musical tune. "You know my dad used to love these." he said, almost in a whisper.
Seeing that there was another student in the room, he clasped his hands together and looked at the Professor. "Can I talk to you alone? It's kinda of a private matter" |

He opened the door to his rather large storeroom, gesturing for Leo to enter. He followed the boy in and shut the door behind him, warding it against sound. "Here we go. What's up, Leo? Something happen?"

| Lowsee ☆ The Joker ☆ Fantastic Baby! ☆ HufflyPuffly Looking at the Professor, he gave him a weak smile, thankful that he put a ward against the sound. "What's going on..." he repeated after the older man as he ran both his hands through his hair. "I don't know where to start to be honest, Professor." he breathed, leaning a bit on the wall. "I'd think I should tell you about how I started my summer..." Leo sighed, "Get yourself a chair, Professor. This'll take long." |

| Lowsee ☆ The Joker ☆ Fantastic Baby! ☆ HufflyPuffly Taking a deep breath, Leo started telling him about how his summer started awfully. How the first week he of his summer was stressful. He told him about his father's death and how it still devastated him. Taking a deep breath once more, he looked over at the Professor and frowned.
"See...Lu and I went to Italy this summer, together, just to get away from everything that was around me. And I met some family members, obviously. They told me stories and such and well..." he paused as he nervously ran his hand through his hair. "Well they told me about this family." |

| Lowsee ☆ The Joker ☆ Fantastic Baby! ☆ HufflyPuffly "Yeah..." he sighed, looking into his Professor's eyes."See Professor, this family was named Carracio" Leo said as he pulled away from the older man's grasp. "And they had this little boy named Drago." he said as he turned around giving him his back. Walking away from Armand, he kept talking. "This man was named Franco Carracio and he worked for some men in my family." he sighed as he stopped dead in his tracks. "Well, Franco did something very awful that had resulted in his and his wife's death. Their son, Drago, survived and was given to an orphanage."
Pausing for a bit, he turned back to the Professor, his eyes going serious. "Professor...You're Drago." |

| Lowsee ☆ The Joker ☆ Fantastic Baby! ☆ HufflyPuffly Sighing, he knew this would shock him for a bit. Putting his hand in his left pocket, he pulled out a golden locket and walked towards the Professor. "This belonged to your mother, Professor." he told him softly as he opened the locket to show him the picture inside.
The picture had the three of them (Erikson, his dad and his mom) in it. The little boy was on his mother's lap and her husband stood above her. Franco looked exactly like Armand did now. The height, the hair, everything. Glancing between the locket and the Professor, He sighed. "I'm sorry, Professor. I just had to tell you about this, it's a bit troubling for me to know something and not tell it to someone who actually cares." Leo said as he rested the locket onto the Professor's palm. |

| Lowsee ☆ The Joker ☆ Fantastic Baby! ☆ HufflyPuffly "No problem, Professor." Leo smiled at him weakly. "Well, I guess I should go Professor. If you want more information, I mean there's more to this, but I still don't think you're ready to hear it. When you're okay and settled with this new news...I'll tell you more." He told him as he walked out of the room and walked out of the office, leaving Hermy and the Professor alone. |
