| | |  Herbology Lesson One: Room for a New Arrival
Once again the room is filled with empty pots, soil, and replanting supplies. In addition are some over-crowded planters. In fact, much of the greenhouse seems to be crowded this time around, some pots holding fairly new plants. In the back of the room is a large empty bin marked "Compost."
Professor Carracio made his way around the room, checking the plants and somewhat looking like he was apologizing to them. Though all it was only the barest flicker in his eyes as he looked at each one. By the time he came back to the front of the classroom his expression was blank, and not a hint of emotion could be seen behind the midnight eyes. | |

Isabella ran into class. She was late and it was the first day. This was just wonderful. She gave the professor an apologetic smile.
"I'm sorry I'm late. I got extremely lost." she explained as she walked to where the rest of the students had gathered.
"Does anyone need a partner?" She asked as she looked at her mostly paired up classmates.

Lauren clipped off a old yellow part of the plant and then looked at Mandy. "Yea Herbology seems a little interesting, I don't like the fact that you get all this dirt on you no matter what you seem to be doing," she replied looking down at her clothes.
"Right now I haven't decided on what my favourite subject is.."
Lauren found some clean towels nearby and took them. She tossed one over to Mandy. Lauren grabbed one and wiped the dirt off of her hands. OOC: I have to go, bye! ttyl

Noticing the dirt around the plant, Melinda saw it was dry, so she decided to slightly put in some water, just to keep it, alive. She took one of the leaves, that would look healthy if it wasn't for the fact that it was being eaten by fungus.

Melinda ended with the plant she had taken before and put it down beside her. "Well, let's be a doctor with a new one..." She said and pulled another from the middle of the table where all the plants were placed at.
She could see it was an easy job, maybe. She needed to be a lot judgy, if the leaves were yellow, green, brown, etc. She sighed at just the thought.
Suddenly, she heard a voice, well, two. Chris and Allie. She turned around slowly, and saw them being a team. She waved to both and smiled, and quickly turned around smiling to continue taking care of her plant.

"Sounds like you girls had a lot of fun at Belle's." Chris said very sarcastically.
Chris then looked around. He saw Melinda, smile to him and Allie, he smiled back. "Umm so it looks like this plants pretty good." Chris said to her.

Isabella stood and did as Lillianna had shown her. She seemed to be getting the hang of it. She wondered if this was all there was to this lesson. "Seems easy enough. How many plants are we to do this with?" She asked as she placed the plant into a pot.

Qaz thought she'd better keep a closer eye...

She saw Melinda wave, and waved back, then looked down at the plants. "Yes, I think so too." said Allie. "I don't see anymore that are abou tot die."

Qaz thought she'd better keep a closer eye... Miranda turned red again ''sorry plant!'' she said grimacing ''maybe you can put it back in...'' wondered aloud trying to poke the little plant back where it came from. ''Are you half and half aswell?'' she asked curious, maybe there were more students like her than she thought

OOC: I have to go, bye! ttyl "Thanks," Mandy replied as she snatched the towel from the air. She wiped her hands, trying to remove as much dirt as possible. When her hands were fairly clean, she fixed her hair. Who knows how long it will stay tied up this time. "Hmm, my favorite subjust would probably be Tranfiguration. I don't really know why, it just is." Mandy's shoulders rose slightly in a shrug before she turned to check her progress on the plant.
OCC: Bye

A light went on in Isabella's head. She loved learning new information and this was all quite enlightening. "Thank you." She said and she continued to clip and trash the plants that were diseased and feeding off the healthy ones. She had a feeling this would become a fast favorite among her classes.
"So is this your top subject?" She inquired as she continued with her work.

So, tell me your story.....' Qaz prompted.
