The room is arranged in a rather standard manner, with rows of desks and chairs evenly spaced. At the front of the room, a blackboard contains the following:

Quote:

Welcome to Transfiguration.

Professor Kingsley

Please take a piece of parchment, write the following information and place it on your desk. Please keep the chatter to a minimum.

Name
House and Year
What personal item you brought

Professor Kingsley stands next to his desk, drumming his fingers on a small box. "Wands and personal items on your desks, please," he instructs as students enter the room.


ooc: Remember, Professor Kingsley is in the room, so please watch the chatting. He's always there even if you don't think that I am. Class will get started later today.

Looking all happy and cherfull again Joshua walked in the Transfiguration classroom and happily waved at the professor ''Hi professor! I hope you are having a good day''. Then siling at him again he took the fist desk he saw and settled himself on it. Oh he needed write information on a parchment. Fine.

After placing the parchment on the desk, he put his quill and hazel wand on it too. Now t was time to wait wait and wait.

Marie walked into the tansfiguration class, "Hello Professor...." new person. Geesh, how many new professors were there this term?

She sat in the back of the class then read the instructions on the board. Well of course they needed to write down who they were. It seemed to be like that in every class this term... well the classes with new professors anyway.

She took out some parchment and her famcy quill that Evelyn gave her and wrote her information down.

Now to just wait...

Wait for her boyfriend to come to class....

Wait for her friends to come to class....

Wait for class to start...

Yep, it was just a waiting game now.

Melissa walked into the Transfiguration classroom. Transfiguration! She was looking forward to this. She looked up at the blackboard. So his name was Professor Kingsley, wait that sounded very familiar. Oh well. "Good day Professor Kingsley. My name is Melissa Bellator sir," she smiled at him then took a seat at a desk.

Wait...Professor Kingsley. Oh no! Amy and Simon got into trouble with him! He took those 6 points from Hufflepuff! Just stay calm and put it out of your thoughts Melissa. She told herself. She got a piece of parchment, then got her quill out and wrote down the instructed on the board.

She could bring a scarf right? It was her own and very awesome. Then she put her pine wand and scarf on her desk. Now she would wait.

Destiny was EXCITED!

She had been looking forward to this class since term started, since Transfiguration was her FAVORITE subject! She wasn't too fond of it last term, though, not with Professor Periwinkle Pillowface teaching them how to make butterflies and all. Butterflies were ugly.

"Hullo Professor!" she greeted the new guy with a smile, not even caring that he was the creepy Professor up on the staff dais.

Taking a seat near Marie AND Josh, she pulled out parchment and a quill to write!
She pulled out the broach and her wand and placed them on the desk.

She was READY!

Arya skipped into the classroom wand in hand and sporting a pair of pink sun shades. She loathe the things because they were to big for her face, and because they were pink. She was not a fan of the color.

Glancing at the board, she shoved the shades back up her nose before smiling at the professor. "Hello professor, how are you?"

Swinging her backpack off her shoulders, she droped it on the floor beside a seat in the front and sat down as well. Pulling out a piece of parchement and quill with one hand while using the other hand to hold up her shades in place, she wrote down the needed information.

Folding the parchement, she placed it on the front of her desk so the professor was able to read it and gave the pink shades another push back up her nose before leaning back and waiting for class to start.

Aileen entered the classroom, humming some song. Then she saw a professor and so she stopped. "Hello, professor." she said quietly and went to sit down. She set her bag on the floor next to her and took off a piece of parchment, ink and a quill. After a while, she took out her wand too. Then she wrote on a parchment.

Then she set the quill aside and waited for the lesson to start.

Kate entered the classroom. "Transfiguration...I wonder how is this going to be...wow! It´s like changing stuff in stuff you want haha " She thought " Muggle Scientist will kill for this "

Kate saw the Professor. "Good morning sir." She said and went to sit down.
There were no familiar faces in the room...maybe later, I think I came early"

She took a piece of parchment and a quill and wrote:

She placed it on the table and waited for the lesson to begin (or a friend to come in and say hello)

Hmm. It had been hard to find something personal that wasn't valuable, when everything she had was pratically valuable. She was Brody Summers after all. She blonde wandered into the room, smiling at the Professor before sitting down at an empty pair of desks. She mused for a second, looking down at the piece of parchment she'd put down. She hoped her personal item was okay. Reaching into her bag, she pulled out her quill, and placed it on the desk beside the parchement. Finally....she got out an locket with a S adorned with the shape of a White Peacock; the Summers family crest. The locket was old, and she adored it. After a few minutes, she began writing on the parchment

Quote:

Name: Brody Queenie Summers
Year: 6th year Hufflepuff
Personal Item: Locket with Summers Family crest adorning the front

And then she stood it up on her desk, and then waited for the lesson to begin.

Delilah walked in the Transfiguration room. "Good morning, Professor Kingsley." She said, smiling. She picked up her quill and wrote on a piece of parchment:

Then she sat down in an empty desk and took out her wand.

Pam peeked into the classroom before entering. There were already a few students inside. She glanced at the board before seeing a professor sitting at his desk and she greets him politely, "Hello,Professor Kingsley." She had never met him before but at least that's what his name is, as shown on the board. She then went to take a seat at a desk which was quite far from the front. She didn't really like sitting infront. She looked up at the board and looked at the instructions given. "Okay...Not to hard I guess" She thought to herself as she tooked out a piece of parchment and wrote down what she needed to write.
"This should do it." She was glad that she was done with it and she placed her wand and her packet of bubblegum on her desk. "I wonder what we're going to do." She thought excitedly.

Fletcher strolled into class, just finishing licking the icing off one of his cupcakes from Charms class. He paused when he saw the board and blinked a few times.

Uh, they were supposed to bring a personal item....? Why hadn't he gotten that memo now? Oh well, good thing the boy had a spare cupcake on him he was planning to share with the professor.

Fletcher took a seat and placed his pink-iced cupcake in the front of his desk for the teacher. Heheh. Then he quickly jotted down the three things they were asked to fill out.

Quote:

Name: Fletcher
House and Year: Hufflepuff 5th Year
What personal item you brought: A cupcake, just for you sir.

:: Ehgad Jarvey sat near the middle with not much enthusiasm. He was nervous and never had much luck at transfiguration.

He ran his right hand through his hair and sighed. Just then he noticed people had things in front of them on their desks. "ah geez, I forgot to grab something to transfigure!" Ehgad thought, smacking himself on the forehead and silently panicking as he looked around.

He checked under the desk and noticed his shoelace was untied. The idea hit him and he peeled the stinky black and white gym shoe off his left foot and placed it happily on the desk. It smelled a bit like corn chips and chili. He pushed his shoe as far away on his desk he could and smiled a little.

He then jotted down:

Relieved he had something now, he smiled for real this time and relaxed. ::

Cadence walked into the classroom feeling very excited. Transfiguration had always been one of her favorite subjects mostly because it was usually somewhat of a challenge for her. It wasn't exactly the easiest subject in the world for anyone. Despite its challenges, though, Cadence still thought herself to be rather good at it. Smiling as she entered, she greeted the Professor, "Hello, Professor!" and then took a seat right in the middle of the front row. She followed the instructions on the board, writing her information down on a piece of parchment. Then she put her wand and one of the bracelets she had made last term on the desk.

Finally having managed to get the smell of old disgusting swamp out of his robes and hair, and the taste of the slimy gross green stuff from his mouth, Oliver wandered into Transfiguration with his usual bright smile plastered onto his face.. though it did falter a bit when he saw who was teaching the subject – the man whose feet he got puke on earlier. Ooops.

“Hello again, Sir.” He said as he wandered past and.. oh, there was Brodeh. Heh. No Torin – 'good stuff'. He grabbed the seat next to her and gave her one of his oh so pleasant smiles. He took his quill and scribbled down his details:

He pulled the old frisbee out of his bag which proceeded to wheeze pathetically rather than snarl. hehe! Lookit!

Selena walked in and smiled at the teacher. "Hello professor," she said before she took a seat. She scribbled down some info.
She placed the scarf down on her desk. It was warm but it was a bit itchy.

Annie entered the classroom, she read the announcement on the board and started making sure she had something personal to share, in class of course. This was absolutely going to be a great class. Taking out her piece of parchment as she sat down, she finally wrote:

It was going to be hard, you know...to see something happen to that bracelet...

Iris walked into the transfiguration classroom and looked at the board immediatley. Personal items? Why were they important? ... Iris glanced that the professor, who had a box... For collecting things. So.. they were probably going to be used in class. "Hullo Professor, I hope you're well today!" She said to the professor politely as she made her way to a seat. Taking out a piece of parchment and her multicoloured ink, she wrote the information on the parchment that the professor wanted:

Quote:

Iris Beaumont,
Slytherin 4th Year,
bracelet and wand.

Well, he wanted their wands, right? And it WAS a personal item. Hehe.

Iris got up, and took her bracelet off, not really wanting to, and put it in the box along with her wand.

Her lucky bracelet was now sat at the bottom of the box with everyone elses things. She felt lost without it round her wrist.

SIIIIGH.

She made her way to her seat and waited for the class to start quietly.

Sophia, excited, entered Transfiguration room. This subject is most likely part of her top 3 like subjects -- so she HOPES she will do well. She walked toward the Professor's place. "Good day to you Professor Kingsley!" greeted Sophia. Reading the instructions, Sophia was thinking of what personal item to use. After finding a good seat, she placed necessary items on the desk.

Quote:

Sophia Diggory
First Year Hufflepuff
Phoenix-designed Necklace

Sophia was thinking hard -- curious of what to do to the personal item.

Woot! Transfiguration! Yes!

The little Lockhart walked inside and nodded at the Professor with a smile on his face. It was then that he noticed the blackboard. Professor Kingsley. Okay, he'll remember that. Personal item. Oh! He didn't know that. That's when he frowned. Sure, he had his wand, and he now had a piece of parchment that he'd taken, and his quill, but he didn't want to use his quill as a personal item...what was he supposed to write his notes with!?

Then he remember the cards! He has cards! Because he's been practicing the spells Mr. Sir. Librarian Kapoor taught him last year. He could lose a card, that was replaceable.

Then, sitting on his desk, he took out the Ace of Spades. Fair enough. That was his personal item. A card.

Noir entered the Transfiguration Classroom, and smiled to the Professor "Hello Professor" and then she seated in the second row..She saw the note on the board and she took a parchment and quill from her bag..She wrote down as the Professor Kingsley asked the student

Quote:

Canoir Malese Greengrass
First Year Slytherin
A wristband with Greengrass family crest and a wand

Noir put her wand and her wristband on her desk.

Mina strolled into the classroom and looked to the board. This wasn't a normal day where she was overly happy or bubbly at all. She was on a mission now and focus was all she needed. Seeing Professor Kingley, she gave him a nod and a tiny smile. "Good day, professor," she greeted.

Moving to the front, she found a desk and pulled a piece of parchment out , along with her personal item and wand. Setting them down, she jotted down what was instructed of her.

Quote:

Jasmina Bennett
Ravenclaw 3rd year
Heart Charm Bracelet

Setting her quill down, she waited patiently in silence.

Maddie walked into the classroom and sat down. She conjured up a little name tag with the required information:

She hated the pendant she'd brought. It was given to her by her mother, in an attempt to buy friendship after a particularly horrible argument. She didn't care if she transfigured it into something weird - it wouldn't matter.

Almost running into the room, his breathing rapid he slid into the classroom, his sneakers making a weird squeaking noise that made him wince. Well everyone knew he was here now he thought wincing as he sheepishly made his way to a seat and sat down. Pulling out a piece of parchment he wrote

Quote:

Name: William. Z. Cullack
Year and House: 4th year Ravenclaw
Personal item: Necklace with a black dove.

With that done he sat there puffing a bit as he looked up, "Hello professor." he greeted cheerfully, acting al cool like.

:: Ehgad smiled at the Slytherin students that were sitting around him. He last heard that Slytherin was in close second at the moment for the cup. His last school didn't have such things and the competition made Ehgad sweat with excitement.

His mind went to sabotage as he stared at the rival house's items that sat on their desk. He stared hard wishing he could cause them to disappear, but they would probably just do as he did and grab a shoe. The number of bracelets and scarves were many. Ehgad thought his shoe was lame, at least he didn't have a silly bracelet or scarf. Although, those items didn't stink like old bean dip. He thought of this and covered his nose. Could be worse, he could be using a sock.

His eyes then traveled to the Professor. He was drumming his fingers on a box and was watching the students intently.

Any ideas of sabotage went out the window for Ehgad. He uncovered his nose and began wondering what may be in the box. ::
