The supplies for this lesson had been difficult to collect, Sage was sure it was going to be worth it though and he gave the classroom a once over. He was making sure nothing looked out of the ordinary.. nothing suspicious. It looked normal. Good. The usual lab desks and stools were in place and each workspace contained a few palm-sized, deep red petals all ready for phase one.

Trixie skipped into herbology. She liked professor Dawson. Well she did use him for her homework so now knew some business about his past. Not that she was gonna spread anything around or anything. Not that was anything to spread in the first place. "Morning Professor" she grinned happily as she walked really near the front. Why did she have the sudden urge to want to go to the front? Oh well. "How is everything go SIr?" she asked and then turned to give a gentle smile over at Maddie.

Oh, Professor Dodson. Gold loved that man, he was so... down-to-earth and sweet. Saying a polite hello to Professor Dodson as she stepped in, for the Herbology class, Gold scanned the neat and tidy place with bright, green eyes to see if anyone she knew was around.
Not yet.
But she knew more people would arrive, soon.

Nymphy walked in to the large greenhouse and put his bad down. Even after alnmost two years, the smell had beccome not even a smig more barable. He got out his dragon hide gloves and google and waited for the lesson to start. Seeing his professor he said, "Good Morning Professor Dudson. How are you this fine day?" he asked, smiling.

"Hello to you too," Sage said kindly with a smile, "I'm very well, thank you." Yep, he'd had a pretty good day. Well, so far that was. Quote:

"Everythings going just marvellous," Sage sent his smile in the direction of Trixie, the girl he'd helped with her History of Magic homework. He wondered what grade Professor Lainey had given her but decided against asking.

And here was Gold.. such a bright young Gryffindor. Sage bowed his head in greeting as the prefect entered the classroom. "Hope you're well, Miss Laksh." Quote:

He leant back on his desk and tapped his foot to some unknown rhythm as he waited for a few more to arrive.

Yes! Herbology! Finally!
Treyen skipped through the lesson, and greeted the Professor, "Good day, Sir!" he said, with a big smile.
He, of course, proceeded to take a seat, yes?

Zane walked into the classroom, looking up at the roof of the greenhouse. How he longed to be outside for a while, but it was Herbology after all, so he'd get to play with plants. "Good afternoon Professor Dodson, how are you doing today?" he asked, taking a seat.

Freeman, ever the serious student-of-life, approached the front of the greenhouse with great care not to tread upon anything alive. He slipped into place by a sixth-year Griffie. Close enough to the professor to dispel criticism, but not so close as to draw attention to oneself as a brown-noser. He sat and folded his hands on the table neatly.
Maybe today wouldn't be a 'dirty' day.

Arya adjusted the old oversized yellow beanie on her head as she strolled into the classroom, skipping the rest of the way to her seat when she had the beanie fixed. Taking a seat she placed her bag at her feet and glanced at her classmates, smiling at the familiars before waving at the good professor. "Hello, Professor Dodson."

| The REAL Sorting Hat: "Ravenclaw!" This monkey is bananas.
William entered the Herbology classroom yawning loudly. Last night he'd had a nightmare that had kept him awake, shaking and very confused. Stretching his shoulders, arms wide over his head he nodded to professor Dodson, "Hello pro...Professor." he stuttered, yawning once more before flushing slightly as he made his way to a seat, siting down. He would make it through class, then go have a nap in the dorm room.

Ellie walked in cautiously, eyes scanning for any clue of what they would be doing. Hopefully, not putting anything in theirs shoes this time. OR eating anything.. She found her way to a workdesk. Pedals? Hmmm...

Have you been well since you were trapped in that create?" he asked, remembering how Nymphy himself had bombarded the create to get it open. It had infact been Professor Dudson that had been inside the Hufflepuff create.

Sage somehow managed not to shudder at the memory. It was an awful one and it was the last time he volunteered to be locked underwater in a crate. "Much better now I'm above water, yes.." he said slightly nervously. Heh.
Just as expected, a few more students trailed into the classroom. Professor Dodson welcomed them all with a polite smile and he noted how tired William was looking. He had some interesting stuff planned for the lesson, so hopefully the Ravenclaw wouldn't nod off.. it'd be a shame if he missed it!
"I'm sure you remember last lesson when we learned about plants that heal," Professor Dodson decided to get on with things, "and therefore how Herbology plays an important part in the Healing career. Healing isn't the only career it's useful in though.. who can tell me what other professions plants could be handy in?"
In other words, who could guess what today's lesson would be about.

Sweet deal. Time for a cool class.
Abby into Herbology with some of her energy renewed, ready for class. Grr. She should have grabbed a Chocolate Frog before class.
"Hallo, Professor," she said before slipping into a seat.
Abby raised a hand at the professor's first question. "Jobs having to do with food," she offered. Cue stomach growl.

In other words, who could guess what today's lesson would be about. Gold raised a hand. "I think Herbology is the gateway to magic, sir," she said, cheerfully. "We only have wands, because we have knowledge of specific woods, and how we can use them to wield magic, or likewise."
In other words, wand-making.
"Oh, and potions. You need a good knowledge of plants, to be a good potioneer." That was simple enough. "Of course, potion-making can be linked up to a variety of subjects, too." Such as healing. It was like a cycle, or at least a building. Each block contributed a whole lot.
Yep.

"Auror's need to know herbology due to poisons, polyjuice potions, strengthening potions, and the like." Zane said, raising his hand in the air.

Potioneering... Was that a word? When do you use plants? Or, when do wizards use plants..?
"Well, all potions use plants, right? Or most at least?" she didn't know much about potions..

Arya considered the question for a moment before raising her hand. "People who sell plants for decoratations...at weddings and parties. Stuff like that." She couldn't for the life of her remember than name of the profession.

Selena raised her hand. "Well, plants can be used in potion making, landscape design and people with knowledge in plants can always go into research for plants," Selena offered.

Freeman raised one hand. "Care of Magical Creatures," he responded politely. "If you are caring for animals, you have to know what they eat and what not to feed them. And some creatures rely entirely on plants for survival."

Sage nodded at all the answers, some of them new and some of them similiar to the answers he'd received when he'd asked the question last lesson. "Those are all correct," he nodded, "Caterers, wand-makers, potioneers and landscapers.."
But the specific answer he'd been looking for..? Quote:
Originally Posted by Balvir "Auror's need to know herbology due to poisons, polyjuice potions, strengthening potions, and the like." Zane said, raising his hand in the air.
THIS.
"Very good!" Sage exclaimed with a clap of his hands, "if there are any of you in here who are hoping to one day become an Auror, knowledge of plants is very important." His voice grew more serious as he explained. "For most potions or spells, more often than not there's a plant or a herb that can do the same job." Not always as efficiently and sometimes it was a pain FINDING said plant, but yes. "Therefore Herbology is quite vital to anyone in the field of magical forensics.. detectives and Aurors."
He took a moment to breathe and waited until the kids had finished taking notes. And just incase.. "Any questions so far?"

Hmmm Aurors. That only made her think of Josh and she didn't see him in the class. Unless, she just wasn't looking hard enough. Sighing, she placed her elbow on the table and held her head up by her palm, looking towards the professor. Time to concentrate on the class.

Freeman paused, his eyebrows furrowed and eyes focused on the petals in front of him. He wasn't planning to become an Auror, but so far none of the teachers had cared whether their particular lesson applied to Freeman's future plans. He had figured out rather quickly that he was expected to learn completely useless information, regardless of how he felt about it. What bothered Freeman was that logically his argument made sense. Weren't representatives of the greater academic system supposed to care about logic? And yet, here he was.
The small boy regarded the flower petals with distaste. No, he had no questions. Other than the obvious, what is the point of my being here?
