Ancient Runes 1
 
First lesson since his most recent return to Hogwarts and Ethan Truebridge was sitting at his desk in the front of the classroom, a magical gramophone sat on his desk, the soundtrack of Les Misérables playing quietly.

The blackboard was apparently 'singing' along, as the words were sung on the record, in runic the translations appeared on the board and then disappeared again moments later.

Truebridge ignored it and kept his hazel-green eyes on the door, watching as the students began to file in.

"Sit wherever you like. Four to six people at each table if you please."


SPOILER!!: classroom description
The classroom is bright and airy, very clean and comfortable. There are no desks in this classroom, rather there are several wooden tables which would fit between four and six students quite comfortably. The tables are arranged rather higgledy piggledy, all out of alignment with each other and yet there is plenty of room to weave through the tables and walk up to the front of the classroom, or down to the back.

The front of the classroom has a large blackboard, charmed to write on itself,and when it isn't taking notes it quite often it has something to say, though you'll need to transcribe it from runic to English to make any sense of it. Truebridge also has a desk at the front of the class, set to one side, and a perfect view of all the tables arranged haphazardly around the room.

At the back of the classroom, set to one side, there is the door out into the corridor. Along the back wall there is a large bookshelf almost overflowing with books, mostly old, all very well taken care of. You're welcome to look at any of these books but if any harm befalls the tomes, there will be a severe price to pay. A long and comfortable couch takes up the rest of the back wall.

The windows along the remaining side, opposite the door and Truebridge's desk have soft white curtains that are almost transparent. When pulled they simply diffuse the light and ensure it is not too bright, allowing the room to stay bright and lit at all times. The window frames are the most interesting, if you go and inspect them, all of the exposed wood has been painstakingly carved with runes, mostly bindrunes and rune charms, set in ligature and carved then stained red. These have all been activated and almost thrum under your fingertips. No cold will pass these windows, no student will fall to their deaths. It is a barrier of safety and of comfort, and a good example of runic magic. The door into the classroom is similarly marked.


ooc note: Please note that class has finished. The thread will be open for a short time longer to allow everyone to complete the last task. Please read the following posts to catch up with the lesson, or the latest one if you wish to jump in on the current activity/question. Not all of Truebridge's posts are included here, just those relevant to the progression of the lesson.

Class begins and Truebridge asks the students to share something they know about Runes and whether or not students think it is a useful subject.
Responses to previous question & 'skipping the boring stuff'
Begin at chapter five. What kind of runes do you think would be good to carve into a desk that you do schoolwork on? What kind of effects would you think might be beneficial?
Response to previous question, Ravenclaws leaving the class due to breaking the no-angst rule & two methods of carving, one with wand one without.
The wand method: Intaglio [rune name repeated]
does anyone know what a galdr is?
A summary of what a galdr is based on correct answers given, what are the similarities between a basic galdr and the Intaglio spell covered earlier?
Practice with a burin and a galdr
Begin carving the table or practice either method more. Last step and answering a few questions. What is used to stain the runes and what colour should they be stained?
Using red ochre to stain the runes, paint them and then you may leave.

*Walking in Matty set his books down at a table near the middle. So far he was one of the first students here. He just shrugged and nodded a hello to the professor. Taking his seat he opened his book and started to read.*

prettyme99 01-10-2011 07:27 AM

Helen came in to see only a few people here so she sat down on a middle table, and began to read one of the Ancient Runes Books that she got from Diagon Alley.

Steelsheen 01-10-2011 07:30 AM

Salander strolls into the classroom lazily, then stops. He hears the music first before anything else registers in his head. He knew this song. He knew the play it was from. Something that cant be avoided when your father is a classical musician and you're a bored kid sitting in an empty concert hall hearing it over and over and over...

He turns his head and sets his eyes on the Professor. Still feels odd that it was a dude sitting there and not the delightfully blonde Professor Di. But if Evelyn and Marie's words were anything to go by, the Slytherin lad shouldnt be disappointed. If anything, he should buckle up and enjoy the ride.

"Good morning Professor.... errrr" what was his name again? Something about London "-- Truebridge! Good Morning Professor Truebridge." he greeted the man and made his way on the far side of the classroom nearest the windows.

Coraline rushed through the door and sat down, she was shy to come to her first lesson, she sat on an empty table an opened up her book and read, at least maybe no strangers will talk to her, she would rather talk to her friends due to the shyness she has. she smiled as she heard the music playing, she had heard it before, it made her feel like she was home.

Jason Potter Weasley 01-10-2011 07:34 AM

Rex is ready for Ancient Runes,

Katie smiled as she looked around, she was so glad classes were starting again, she had missed them, probably because they were so awesome!

..........

It came to her, yup BANG right then BANG you know that thought BANG! Anywya enough about the BANG she smiled and waved as she walked over to the table that Coraline was sitting at and said, "If Luke and Lachy arrive we should invite them to the table, that way of its a group thing we can be all together" Katie smiled, she hoped she didn't scare Cora :erm:

Patroclus hadn't been this excited since he got the latest Firebolt, for his birthday. But this was better than a broom, Truebridge was back.

Hurrying down the hall and into the classroom, Patroclus couldn't help but falter on the spot when he saw the dark haired man, in the center of the room. "Professor Tru-" Patroclus squeaked, his voice exhibiting his excitement, "Sorry I mean Professor Truebridge, Sir" he said clearly after clearing his throat, "Great to see you again!"


Finding a vacant table, the fifth year Lion got all his things out of the bag, and sat smiling and ready.This man was Patroclus' favourite for a reason, and the boy was sure he was not going to me disappointed.

Mell 01-10-2011 07:42 AM

Ancient Runes had definitely been Mia's favourite subject last year and she hoped it would be again. It was just a shame that the lady professor who had taught it last term was now gone.

Shrugging her shoulders as she stepped into the classroom, Mia waved at the new professor. "Hello Professor." She said brightly as she made her way over to where Salander was sitting and promptly sat down beside him. She was starting to get used the professor's coming and going at Hogwarts. Giving Sal, a small nod of her head, she took out some parchment and quill and waited for the class to begin.

Erindipity 01-10-2011 07:53 AM

Lexi had a less than pleasant scowl/frown combo on her face as she tromped into Truebs' classroom. Her robes were in slight disarray and her hair was tousled and hanging haphazardly around her face. The only thing that changed her expression was when her eyes fell on the man of the hour... err the professor. "Good day, Professor. Good to see you back," Lexi said in a tone that was far more pleasant than that sourpuss she wore.

Her eyes then drifted over the classroom. Really? Salander. Meh. Seeing him made her wibble a bit. Sighs. Making sure to sit WAYYYY away from him but where she could totally still see him she dropped her bag and sat with her arms crossed across her chest. Full pout mode.

top94a 01-10-2011 07:54 AM

Raven walk silently in the room, what is it again ancient rune, he get a seat in a vacant table, he will be ready for magical education.

The1HBIC 01-10-2011 08:04 AM

Mia too
 
Ancient Runes. A class Marie was not really looking forward to. Not because she didn't necessarily like the class, but because she didn't fully understand it. However, her little study session with Jimmy did help just a little and she did have her notes with her.

Walking into the room she first heard music playing. Music that she in no way recognized. Eh she didn't care because she had spotted Professor Truebridge there. Yep, he was one of the reasons she made sure she came to class... he was after all her favorite professor... well now that Lawson was gone. And he would still be considered her Head of House if she ever needed anyone to talk to. Plus she really needed to be in class if she was planning on having a shot at all in passing her Runes OWL this year. "Hey there Professor Truebridge. Glad to have you back." she said smiling at him as she looked around deciding where to sit.

She didn't see Jimmy anywhere in the room but she did see Salander and Mia. Huh? Mia was actually sitting next to Sal. What was up with that? The last she knew her friend was mad at the boy. Hmm, must have gotten over it by now. "Hey guys, what's up?" she said as she sat on the other side of Sal. She would have sat next to Mia but then Jimmy wouldn't have been able to sit next to her when he got to class.

Now where was that boyfriend of hers?

Ivy Nienna 01-10-2011 08:11 AM

Music. Classical Music. Hearing the melody flow through the door, Ivory couldn't help the slight bounce of her head as she made her way into the Ancient Runes classroom. A slight twitch in her fingers registered slightly as the violin part surfaced, and part of her wished her violin was in her hand rather than in her dormitory.

But no, now was classtime. Class with Truebridge to be precise. "Hey Professor Truebridge." It was good to have the man back. To her at least, Hogwarts seemed safer with him here.

Smiling at the array of tables and comfortable clutter of the room, Ivory weaved her way between groups of tables to find an empty set of them near the middle. A shrug of her slim shoulder left her book bag as a place holder in her chosen chair. Her brow furrowed slightly as she tried to remember whether Arya had mentioned if she was taking Runes or not. Just to be safe, she placed her textbook in front of the chair right next to hers, saving her spot if that was allowed.

Her gaze trailed around the room, landing on the phonograph and the singing chalkboard and then on the large bookcase. Unconsciously steering herself in that direction, she began looking around. Leafing carefully through old texts and trying to decipher the carving on the windows, Ivory decided she liked the feel of the room. It felt....safe.

PatInTheHat 01-10-2011 08:12 AM

Ancient Runes wasn't her favorite class and it certainly wasn't her best, but the young Hufflepuff had heard that Truebridge was teaching this now, so she had to attend, right? Right. Ambling into the classroom, a bounce in her step and a smile on her face, she allowed her eyes to lazily scan the classroom, settling on the professor long enough for a pleasantries. "Hey, Professor Truebridge. It's awesome to have you back."

Choosing a seat wasn't terribly difficult as she weaved through the desk and took a seat at a table that occupied her best friend. Tossing her bag off her shoulders and onto the table, being mindful of the book Ivory placed there, she gave the girl a quick hug. "Hey." The music was foreign to her ears, but it was rather catchy and she found herself drumming her fingers on the table along with the music as she let her curious eyes wonder around the classroom.

WeasleyGirl 01-10-2011 08:16 AM

First class.

That's all Georgiana was thinking right now, feeling slightly nervous she walked into the room, where she saw a man. She has heard his name before "Good morning Professor-" Merlin his name! come on Georgiana you knew it! " Tru-Truebridge" she remembered and smiled.

First year, first class, what it was going to be like?. She spotted a seat on an empty table and sat down, reading her book and trying to understand what "Ancient Runes" was about.

Cinn-O-Bun 01-10-2011 08:27 AM

Walking into the Ancient Runes classroom he looked around and spotted the stupid Slytherin that had caused the mess and Lexi. Faaaaaaaaaaantastic. Clenching his jaw he walked over to the farthest point away from both where he couldn't see either and sat down pulling out his book and supplies. He was half tempted to leave but he wasn't about to fail a class because Lexi didn't seem to know what she wanted. He found his eyes going int he direction he knew she was in and forced himself to stare at his book.

Truebridge nodded in response and watched for a second as the boy began reading.

Good.

Truebridge approved.

"Good morning. Perhaps you'd care to share your name?" He could see the boy was a Slytherin. That was a good thing.

An eager one. And in a good mood? Thats usually what smiles meant. Truebridge wasn't the best at reading facial expressions but smile=happy was a safe bet.

"Good morning."

Truebridge saw that Rex was ready and nodded in greeting.

Seeing Katie, Truebridge watched her for a moment but did not say hello.

Simply because she didn't either. In any case, it was good to see the young Slytherin in class.

Ah.

"Hello Patroclus." Ethan inclined his head respectfully towards the young Gryffindor. The boy had always been an excellent student, in the other subjects he'd taught and he doubted this one would be any different. "It is excellent to see you also."

"Hello." It seemed Truebridge had some more names to learn. Luckily he was good with names.

Belatedly he waved back.

"Good day to you too, Lexi." Truebridge scrutinized the young Gryffindor. "It appears there is something wrong with your face."

On occasion he'd seen Annie with that exact same expression, he was sure.

Truebridge always appreciated the quiet ones. He watched for a moment as the boy sat down and then turned his head towards the next student who greeted him.

"Hello Marie. Thank you."

And where were Destiny and Evelyn?

Ah. Another reader. Truebridge noticed the book staring and assumed the Ravenclaw boy was simply engrossed in his reading.

Surely not breaking the very specific angst rule. Surely not. ;)

Sebastian walked into the Ancient Runes classroom, his bag slung upon his right shoulder, being careful not to hit anyone with it by accident. He noticed that there was music playing and the blackboard was displaying the lyrics, which made him laugh a bit. He walked over to one of the empty tables and took a seat, putting his bag down beside the chair.

Okay so he was nervous, especially for his first class here at Hogwarts, but it was going to be alright, he hoped. He grabbed his Ancient Runes textbook from his bag and placed it in front of him. Okay, so maybe he could get a head start on reading it? He opened it, placing his head on his head as he started to read. This class was going to be long.

Now where was that boyfriend of hers?



On my own. Yeah that was the title. At least thats what he remembered.

Salander shifted his eyes back at the classroom and caught sight of the Gryffindor Prefect. The episode at the kitchens suddenly came flooding back, not knowing if he should apologize for forgetting to clean up the mess (as he said he would) or hide from being forced to hug a man-eating animal.

But before he could decide Lexi walks in next, and the Slytherin lad wanted to just melt into the floor and vanish. He struggled between looking at her and not looking at her, so much so that he started to look like he had a nervous twitch. Was she ok? Why should he care? Because he couldnt stand to leave a girl crying. And that brave Slytherin is exactly what you did.

Of course that didnt help that he also spotted that Ravenclaw dork Ivan. Eh, they could sit together for all he cared he does. He was just gonna sit and stretch his legs on the seat next to him. Just chillin.

But suddenly he felt someone plop down beside him and turned to see-- Mia! He nearly had an attack. Oh yeah this just keeps getting better and better. Must she have to sit right.next.to.him? The easier to hack your head off with my dear.

He looked up just as he heard someone greet and sat on the other side of him. "Hey Marie!" he greeted her back maybe a little too heartily, but with a look on his face Help me!

Yeah definitely not On his own now is he?

"Stradivarius Salander sir." he blurted out before he knew what he was saying. He cringed, he said his entire name out loud. He never does that. "Buuut I just go by Salander. Yeah simpler, easier to remember sir." Not to mention a lot less humiliating.

Draven walked into the classroom and saw that some students had already been filing in. He immediately saw the professor and went up to him to introduce himself.

"Hello Professor, my name is Draven Kurgan, first year. Its a pleasure to meet you sir. I look forward to your class this year as Ancient Runes is one of my favorite subjects" he said smiling.

He then went to sit down and noticed Coraline, a girl he had met briefly in Diagon Alley earlier in the summer so he went and sat down next to her.

"Hey Coraline! How are you? Its really great to see you and im glad i know someone in class" he said smiling and giggling.

He opened his book to start browsing over it as he waited for the professor to start class.

A Bunz comparison... wow. She must have the angry face on RIGHT
 
When Truebs replied she couldn't help but stop and smile. "It's not my face that has the problem, sir," she said quietly. Her feelings were simply manifesting themself on her face. Yeah. That was it. Wait... did she have food on her face? That was a possibility. Quickly scrubbing her hand across it she frowned.

Ivan. They were both there. Why not add Sabel in the mix, too. Just for funsies. Couldn't they all change their class schedule to revolve around HER. More specifically to make sure they were not in there at the same time as her. Suppose not. Drat! She didn't miss the fact that Ivan was avoiding sitting near her and looking at her... Oh well. She hadn't expected them all to profess their undying devotion to her. Much. She would have to figure it all out on her own it looked like. Bully for her.

She did, notice Salander twitching over there. What the heck? Had she damaged some vital part of his brain with that little episode? She was certain it was her fault. She was the only reason she could think of that Salander would be all... wonky. Ugh. She was allll by herseeeeeeeeellllffff...

No one was angsty... never. Not LEXI DENVER. Denver's don't DO angst. She was pretty sure of that anyway. Maybe.

Marie and Sal
 
Mia's eyes roved around the room to see who was here and who was walking through the door. She belatedly noticed Pat a few seats away and she gave him a wave and a smile. It had been far too long since they had spoken to each other. She missed talking to him.

And OMG!!

Was that a Prefect badge on his robes???

Her attention was diverted to a flash of blond walking through the door and Mia sat up a little straighter, hoping that Marie was going to come and sit at the same table because Sal seemed to be a little awkward around her.

"Hey Marie. Not much, just waiting for class to start. And to see if Sal here is going to acknowledge my presence or whether he is going to keep ignoring me." Mia turned to look at the boy beside her and she raised her eyebrow at him.

"Good morning."

she looked up, great she hadn't said hello or anything to the professor, "oh, um, I, um, sorry, good morning Professor Truebridge" she said, she would rather not get in trouble in her first class.

"um, Katie are you right?" Coraline giggled, she could tell Katie had drifted off into her thoughts like she always did, Coraline how ever kept her head in a book.

RachieRu 01-10-2011 08:58 AM

Ancient Runes. His like best lesson, well it was where he had got one of his highest OWL scores, so he was assuming that it was one of his best subjects. So with a grin set on his face he walked into the classroom, although that grin turned more into a smile when he remembered who taught this lesson. Oh yes. He better behave.
"Morning Professor Truebridge." The ravenclaw nodded, as he turned to look who was in the classroom. He noticed Lexi sitting on her own at the back, not really looking happy, and then there was Mia, Marie, and Sal sat at a table together. Hmm. That would do. Heading over to where their table was situated he took a seat. "Hey guys." And now for his...favorite lesson? woot.

He could hear Lexi's voice as she responded to the Professor. Her face? There's something wrong with her face? He resisted the urge to turn his head and look. Instead he kept his head turned squarely at Marie, and was about to make small talk when Mia started up. Acknowledge her presence? Is that a multiple choice question? Because he'd pick the one that says vanish into thin air.

He turned his head sllooooowly towards the Hufflepuff brunette and mumbled "Hi Mia." still not quite looking at her, because he knew that if he looks into her eyes, he's gonna have a nervous breakdown.

And suddenly they were four. He looked up startled at the Ravenclaw Prefect joining them. What was his name.. Fish?.... "Finn!" he blinked "Sup dude! Me I'm ok, HadaHardTimeGettingRidOfTheCauldroncakeThough"he rattled off quickly, then shifted his eyes towards the Hufflefpuff beside him. He saw her pie him smack in the face didnt he? He's Prefect. Wasnt he going to do something about that?

Dianna quickly rushed through the corridor. Thinking she was late, she quickly rushed in the classroom and took a seat which creaked a bit due to the fact that, let her say it again, she thought she was late. "Oops." she muttered as she fixed her hair which looked like a complete disaster right now.

"Good Morning Professor Truebridge." Dianna smiled.

Mell 01-10-2011 10:09 AM

Finn and Sal
 
If her eyebrow went up any higher it was going to shoot right off her forehead. Mia had no idea what Sal's problem was because they had not had their talk yet but really what was so hard in saying hello?

"Hello Sal." She replied with a lot more entusiasm than he was showing her.

But Mia's face brightened immediately when she heard Finn's voice and she turned to look at her friend. "Hey Finn!! I'm glad you came to sit with us." She loved messing around with her friend and since her other friend was giving her the cold shoulder she was going to need him here.

When Sal spoke to Finn, Mia felt her jaw drop and her lip wibbled a little. So obviously he was still angry about that. "Sal..." she began slowly not really knowing what to say to him and figuring that class was not really the time to get into it. "I'm sorry. Okay?"

Random_Me_Ly_ 01-10-2011 10:23 AM

Heather walked into the Ancient Runes class. She quite liked the idea of being here, after all she loved the puzzle. Though the past days full of drama seemed to be overwhelming she blew them away with a positive though. A strand of black hair fell in front of her luminescent green eyes and she quickly moved her hand to return it to it's spot behind her ear. She sat down at an empty desk as she studied the room, finding many familiar faces. She opened her book and began to read silently.

Felixir 01-10-2011 10:37 AM

Entering the classroom, the epitome of calmness and serenity, Jake glanced around. He could hear the music, but it wasn't familiar to him. After a quick glance at the boar, Jake looked around and found a table for himself, before sitting and opening the book he carried under his arm (the one Truebridge had loaned him, which he was nearly finished with), and setting his bag on the floor.

"Morning, Professor," Jake said witha strained smile towards the man before absorbing himself in the book again.

He had his own table... people could come to HIM. Right now... he was reading.

And left his angst at the door.

Because he was WELL BEHAVED.

Lucy entered her first class of her fifth year, she was really looking forward to it but as usual she was nervous. She had no idea how's it going to be, she hoped for the best. She entered the room with a sweet smile, looking around to see the Professor, then suddenly noticed Professor standing right in front of her and said "Oh, hey Professor Tru…True.., oh I mean Professor Truebridge, it's great to meet you." she couldn’t say anything more. She quickly took a seat and waited for the Professor to start the class.

*AiryFairy* 01-10-2011 10:51 AM

Alice ran down the corridor at top speed, making a sudden stop about a foot from the entrance to the Ancient Runes classroom, she would need to try and calm her nerves before she went in. This was her first ever lesson At Hogwarts and the last thing she needed to happen was for her to have a panic attack. She slowly peeped round the door, music was playing and several students were already sat around the many tables. She took a few deep breaths to calm herself, took a hairband from her wrist and tied her long mess of wavy hair into a ponytail and with an anxious smile on her face, she entered the classroom. Looking around Alice didn’t recognise anyone here! The anxious butterflies in her stomach started to flutter but she forced herself to ignore them. Spotting a table that was still empty she sat down, hoping the lesson would start soon.

"Hello Patroclus." Ethan inclined his head respectfully towards the young Gryffindor. The boy had always been an excellent student, in the other subjects he'd taught and he doubted this one would be any different. "It is excellent to see you also."

Patroclus beamed when he was acknowledged by the Professor, "I can wait to see your approach to Runes, Professor" The fifth year knew that Truebridge had had quite a bit of experience working in Cairo and after all Runes played heavy roles in Egyptian society, both past and present.

"Oh this is my favourite one," Patroclus added, as 'I Dreamed a Dream', began to play.

Salander shifted his eyes back at the classroom and caught sight of the Gryffindor Prefect. The episode at the kitchens suddenly came flooding back, not knowing if he should apologize for forgetting to clean up the mess (as he said he would) or hide from being forced to hug a man-eating animal.

Watching the door, Patroclus watched as students began to pile in, he could help but count the number of Lions that were coming in. It was the Prefect in him.
Scanning the room, he noticed the boy from the Kitchen last night, the one that hadn't ran out of the room....well he did but he spoke as well at least. The lion had the slightest inkling that the Snakes eyes had just been on him, but that didn't matter right now as Patroclus spotted one of his favourite Badgers next to the Kitchen Boy.

"Mia" Patroclus smiled as he waved back, making a mental note to talk to her later.

As the song continued Patroclus found himself doodling on the corner of his parchment as the music swelled around him.

Jacqueline walked in the classroom. The first class in her second year..... She rushed to the seat,somewhere in the front. She put her books on the table very quickly and said : ''Good morning, Professor!'' and smiled. Hmm new books always smell good. And all that positive energy that has been there really made her feel hyper and suprisingly excited. Ready for Ancient Runes!!!!!!

hermygirl 01-10-2011 11:49 AM

Spike trudged into class, hands thrust into his pockets. He wasn't sure what might be more worrying - the fact he had to sit still at a desk and be lectured at for the foreseeable future, or the fact that afterwards he might not be able to answer the next riddle and get back into the Common Room. And both were pretty bad as he'd managed to leave Boggis, Bunce and Bean in their matchbox on his bed, and he hadn't fed them today yet.

"'Lo Professor," he said, looking up to see the man, and the blackboard writing of its own accord. That was pretty cool - if only he could understand what was written on it. The music was a bit different too. Maybe it'd got an ickle bit less boring since he'd entered the room.

Now to find a seat. He didn't recognise anyone...bother.

...Eeny, meeny, miny, moe...

nogoodforyou 01-10-2011 12:16 PM

Helena entered slowly, looking around for a seat. "Good morning, professor Truebridge," she said, trying to smile.

That's all Georgiana was thinking right now, feeling slightly nervous she walked into the room, where she saw a man. She has heard his name before "Good morning Professor-" Merlin his name! come on Georgiana you knew it! " Tru-Truebridge" she remembered and smiled.

First year, first class, what it was going to be like?. She spotted a seat on an empty table and sat down, reading her book and trying to understand what "Ancient Runes" was about.

And there she is, thought Helena, as she saw her friend sit at a table. "Mind if I join you?" she asked, smiling to Georgiana.

Heather looked next to her and saw a boy about her age there. "Hey there, I'm Heather. I don't think I've seen you around before." Heather said as she offered her hand to the boy.

Hehe, well someone was happy to see her. "Hey Sal!" she said back with just as much enthusiasm as he had. It was then that she noticed the look on his face. Umm... what was that look for? She then looked over at Mia who was now talking to her.

Right, so there was still tension between her two friends. "Um, just give him time Mia. You did smash a cake in his face the last time you seen him." she whispered to the girl from behind Sal's back.

And then there was Finn. Well how cozy. All of them from the train incident were together again. At least this time none of the problems were her doing. "Hey Finn. How are you?" Hopefully better than Mia and Sal here.

Watching the little exchange going on between Sal and Mia she really didn't know that she should interfere so she turned back to Finn. "So, anything exciting going on in your life?" Yeah, she was totally making small talk with a boy she hardly knew. Oh well, no time like the present to get to know him... right.

pundantic 01-10-2011 12:25 PM

Selina looked around the classroom for a seat. She was so nervous, Ancient Runes being her first class of the year, that she would do something wrong. When she looked around she saw the teacher and nodded her head lowly to show her respect. After she did so she scuttled off to find her seat that she was being annoyingly indecisive about.

Finally she saw a table that was unoccupied by anyone. She would sit there and save the seats for Elektra and Violet and anyone else she knew that wanted to sit down.

At the seat she pulled out a roll of parchment and a phoenix feather quill and her ink well with self-correcting ink inside. She was not going to take any chances. She heard that this particular class and Potions were difficult so she wanted to be ready.

Kaytone 01-10-2011 12:39 PM

Kay walked into the Ancient Runes class room and heard the music. It was nice and she nodded thinking she liked it. Looking around the room she saw alot of people she knew but wouldnt sit with. Like there was Marie. That wouldnt work. Smiling at the Professor she walked down to the tables. "Hello Professor Truebridge, How are you?" She asked with a smile. "The music is great. La Miserables, right?" She asked putting her stuff down and turning to Rex.

Freddie's day so far had been relatively uneventful which came as a welcome relief to the lad. He was slowly growing used to things at Hogwarts, and settling in better than he had ever imagined he would. Aside from the magic, and all the weird and wonderful (and, quite frankly, a little bit scary) things he was discovering, he was also having to adjust to being at a middle class boarding school. At his state school, he could come and go as he pleased and he could relate easily to the kids there. He was struggling here so far.

And so it came to his first lesson ever at Hogwarts: Ancient Runes. He walked into the classroom, shoulders slouched, hands shoved deep in his pockets. His blue-grey eyes settling first on the blackboard and the symbols appearing magically, then on the old gramophone, and then finally on the professor. “Sir.” He nodded curtly in greeting.

He took a seat right at the back of the room, not paying any heed to who was around him.. but he did notice a certain blonde Head Girl had yet to arrive.

Prof Truebs. Jake.

And left his angst at the door.

Because he was WELL BEHAVED.

An ear-reaching grin registered on Cedric's face as he entered the classroom. With Truebridge back to teaching again, it was almost improbable for the Runes classes to NOT be fun, pretty worthwhile and of course, interesting. Now if only the man-who-taught-HoM-first-then-now-Runes had brought the Herbology mistress along with him.... but yes, that's another story.

"Good day, Professor!" Cedric beamed, his eyes twinkling, apparently delighted for the professor to be back.

Hopefully Prof. Truebs still recognized him. It wasn't like Ced had grown too much since he left, no? And his dark brown curls would probably help, right? But then again, there could be other curly boys out there...

Cedric eventually found himself deliberately contemplating the whole classroom, in earnest search of a table to occupy. He saw Arya, Lexi, Mia, Sal, and Ivy with some other people he didn't know. Ced would love to sit with them. He had actually already blundered forward, was about to head to Arya and company's table, and then he saw Jake... sitting alone? Well... that was unexpected. Perhaps Jake would like to be alone? But still...

"Hey Jake." With that, the Hufflepuff prefect eased into the seat which was opposite his housemate and friend's.

Isobel was a little shy as she walked into the room. After all, it was her first class at Hogwarts. But then she saw the books, and all her worries flew out the door. Isobel adored books, especially old ones. They just had an air of mystery about them. Isobel started to walk over to them, but she stopped when she say Cora and Katie. She walked over to them, saying, "Hello professor," just a little shly as she passed.

"Hi," she said to Katie and Cora. "Mind if I sit with you guys?"

Lea noticed that Matty was in class and she went to go sit with him. "you mind if I join you?" she asked while taking her seat any way. Since she didn't know the Professor's yet she decided to say hello any ways. "Good Morning Professor" she said while pulling out her book like everyone else was doing.

Jake_Lockley8672 01-10-2011 12:56 PM

Jamie walked in and smiled as she heard the music playing. Les Misérables. She had a copy of this laying at home on her dresser. She found a seat somewhere in the middle and plopped down. This was her first class at Hogwarts and she was nervous. She stood up, leaving her stuff there at the table and went to look out the window in an attempt to calm herself. She noticed the markings on the window and wondered what they were. Runes probably, more than likely, just which Runes? She made her way back to her seat so that she wouldn't get in trouble for standing.

...O U T spells 'out' so out you must go...

He'd narrowed down which the table to sit at somewhat, when he realised someone was talking to him. He turned from the table he'd just knocked out of his shortlist, and gave the girl a crooked smile.

"Spike," he introduced. "I'm new here." He took her hand somewhat awkwardly, and gave it a quick shake before returning it to his pocket. "I'm a Ravenclaw," he added with a scrunch of his nose, in case it was more useful information to her than it was to him. "May I join you?"

sweetpinkpixie 01-10-2011 01:10 PM

Kurumi entered the classroom and rushed to the front of th room where, thankfully, there was still an open seat. Despite the smile on her face, Kurumi couldn't help but feel a slight damper in her spirits. She was really missing Professor Di and wasn't sure how Ancient Runes was going to be without her spunky personality or her cookie recipes.

"Hello, Professor," Kurumi said bowing slightly before taking her seat and opening up her textbook.

Kurumi turned around to see Salander sitting near her and her cheeks flushed bright red. She hadn't spoken to him since that day in the kitchen when she had attacked Lexi with birds carrying globs of cookie dough. He was probably still angry about that...Best to stick her nose in her book and review what they had covered last term.

Had they learned ancient runes lessons back at his old school before? Hyun didn't know or maybe they had but he never showed up for that class...
But now his feet were dragging him towards the classroom, maybe it wasn't such a bad subject and besides, learning weird signs could be cool,

Hyun walked in to the classroom but stopped immediatly when he heard.. Music? He wasn't loosing his mind that fast right?! Luckily, Hyun had found the source of the music and he grinned a bit before walking towards a empty seat in the middle of the class.

"Hello, Professor...eeehh" wait! What's his name?! As a transfer student, Hyun didn't know any of his professors names, he even had trouble with the house names! "What song is this, Professor?" what's his name? "It sounds oddly familiar"

Runes wasn't a subject the Cass was particularly looking forward to since she had barely passed her finals on Runes last term. But she needed this subject. So she took a deep breath and entered the classroom

"Good day professor." Cass said cheerfully as she entered the room and sat down on a chair

He'd narrowed down which the table to sit at somewhat, when he realised someone was talking to him. He turned from the table he'd just knocked out of his shortlist, and gave the girl a crooked smile.

"Spike," he introduced. "I'm new here." He took her hand somewhat awkwardly, and gave it a quick shake before returning it to his pocket. "I'm a Ravenclaw," he added with a scrunch of his nose, in case it was more useful information to her than it was to him. "May I join you?"

"Of course. I'm a firstie too, in Gryffindor." Heather laughed and pointed to her red and Gold tie. "I like your name." She said simply. She pulled another stray lock of hair away from her eyes.

Bennet Owlwraith, who was more commonly known as 'Benny-O' by his closest friends, filed through the classroom doors amongst the other punctual students. Taking a quick glance to see which seats had been taken, Bennet walked between a couple tables to take a seat at one toward the middle of the room. He nodded a greeting to the professor and tapped his toe very lightly in time with the music. He resisted the urge to hum, despite knowing the song all too well. How many times had his mom played this soundtrack while they cleaned the house on Sunday mornings? Too many to count.

Bennet ran his hand through his strawberry blonde hair as he surveyed the other students in the classroom. A new year always brings a bunch of new faces, but for a fourth year Ravenclaw, he should really know more people than this. He kept to himself so much in previous years that he hardly knew anyone's name. Shameful, really.

Brittany Pratically bounced through the door. Ancient Runes had been one of her favorite subjects last years so she was quiet sure she would do pretty well in this class. and not to mention she had been dying to get a closer look at this Professor guy she had heard so much about. "Hello Professor." she said with a smile before taking a seat.

Tyler had managed to survive the commute... just. On his way up to the fifth floor the staircases had started to move by the time he had reached the third. This unexpected change had driven Tyler to cling to the banister for at least five minutes before he felt secure enough to mount the steps further and even then, he was fiddling with the jelly beans in his pocket, dying to count them in order to relax his nerves.

Entering the Ancient Runes classroom, he noted that it looked old and insecure and he had to resist the urge not to move the desks so that they were all symmetrical and in line. It also didn't help when he noticed that he would be having to sit in groups... he had hoped that he could just take a desk to himself and leave it at that.

Picking the quietest table, he took a seat and began tapping his fingers on the desk, counting each one he did. "One... two... three," just above a whisper. He could feel his nerves settle slightly as he took his mind off things in the classroom. He couldn't even bare to focus on the fact that the blackboard was writing itself, in fear he may just have to run out and never return.

Truebridge, Arya, Lexi, Ivan *snugs*
 
Well this was sure to be interesting. First class of the year and already so much had happened before hand. He couldn't help but wonder if he had missed most of his classes and was somehow in the middle of the semester. But surely that wasn't it; he was absent minded, but not that absent minded.

With a small smile, Sabel made his way into the classroom, pausing just inside the door when he saw that Professor Truebridge was indeed teaching this class. With a bit of a wider grin than before, he gave the man a polite nod. "Morning Professor. It's great to see you back."

Not particularly wanting to hold up traffic, he made his way into the classroom, glancing about at those already gathered. He recognized quite a few, including Arya, Lexi and Ivan. The last two appearing quite despondent.

SPOILER!!: Lexi & Ivan

Wait... did she have food on her face? That was a possibility. Quickly scrubbing her hand across it she frowned.

Ivan. They were both there. Why not add Sabel in the mix, too. Just for funsies. Couldn't they all change their class schedule to revolve around HER. More specifically to make sure they were not in there at the same time as her. Suppose not. Drat! She didn't miss the fact that Ivan was avoiding sitting near her and looking at her... Oh well. She hadn't expected them all to profess their undying devotion to her. Much. She would have to figure it all out on her own it looked like. Bully for her.

She did, notice Salander twitching over there. What the heck? Had she damaged some vital part of his brain with that little episode? She was certain it was her fault. She was the only reason she could think of that Salander would be all... wonky. Ugh. She was allll by herseeeeeeeeellllffff...

No one was angsty... never. Not LEXI DENVER. Denver's don't DO angst. She was pretty sure of that anyway. Maybe.

Clenching his jaw he walked over to the farthest point away from both where he couldn't see either and sat down pulling out his book and supplies. He was half tempted to leave but he wasn't about to fail a class because Lexi didn't seem to know what she wanted. He found his eyes going int he direction he knew she was in and forced himself to stare at his book.



He knew what he was going to do was going to have repercussions, but he couldn't help feeling a great deal of sympathy for Ivan. Lexi as well, granted she was one of his friends and he hated the look she had on her face. So, he did what felt right, but perhaps wasn't one-hundred percent logical.

Giving a grin to Arya, he slipped past Lexi, affording her a warm hug and a rub on the back before moving over to Ivan who was all on his lonesome. As per the last time he met the boy, he pointed to the seat beside him. "Do you mind if I join you?" He wasn't picking sides, simply trying to be understanding hopefully without any whiplash; because there was nothing worse than being alone when you were in a rut.

Bennet glanced to his left as another student, one who looked a few years younger than him, took a seat at his table. Bennet nodded a greeting, tacking on at the end an ever-so-loquacious, "Hey."

And all that positive energy that has been there really made her feel hyper and suprisingly excited. Ready for Ancient Runes!!!!!!

Wow it's your second year and you get lost...idiot, she thought to herself, at least I'm not late. Her robes were neat and clean for the most part, but within her thoughts of potentially being late her tie was more hanging around her neck rather than tied. Her hair was partly up in a braid; she had bags under her eyes from last night. Under the given circumstance she was actually very happy to start class and meet the Professor.

She opened the door and walked in. Slightly embarrassed by her appearance she looked partly at the Professor, mainly looking at the top of his desk and smiled, "Hello there." Quickly looking for a seat, she saw Jacqueline. "How are you? Ironically, I'm starving." She giggled

Rowan finally made it to the classroom and took a seat at the very back. Trying to catch her breath, she pulled out her book, some paper, a quill and quietly waited for class to begin.

Roselyn 01-10-2011 01:58 PM

Merlin she was surprised she could even get up that morning and actually walk a straight line. Blinking (to try and get the sleep out of her eyes), and running a hand through her tangled hair, having actually forgotten to brush half of it in her haste to get out of the common room and to class before she was late, the Slytherin sighed and decided to dig in her school bag for a hair tie. She knew she had one in there somewhere.

It was a RULE that she had to look presentable enough for Professor Truebridge's class! Anything under presentable was just...well it was just unacceptable.

However, her nights sleep was just that; unacceptable. Stupid horn. Where did Destiny get that monstrous thing anyway!? Oh, goody, she was already at the classroom. "Good day, Professor Truebridge." she said quietly, loud enough for him to hear over the music playing though, patting her hair down in the process.

Aw, here was her hair tie! Plotting herself down next to Marie, giving no thought that maybe she'd wanted Jimmy to sit in the seat next to her, the Slytherin quickly put her hair into a messy braid on the side before getting out her runes notebook and quill. Eh, not really in the mood to talk.

"Thirty-six, thirty-seven, thirty-eight... ARGH!" He jumped in his seat as one of the occupants of his table began to speak to him, despite it only being a harmless salutation. "Hi," he quickly said, before averting his eyes back to his fingers and starting again, "One... two... three..."

However, this reign was short lived also as yet another person began speaking to him. Tyler was more alert this time, so did not proceed to scream and only winced a little when this conversation was started. "Hi. I am already seated, but thank you for your kindness and offer," said, again, with very little eye contact and in such a fast pace that it may have been difficult to decipher what he just said.

"One... two... three..."

Heather wasn't used to his nervousness. She got up from the table for a second and walked over to him. She tapped him on the shoulder and sat down next to him. "You know, I don't bite. You can look at me. Come on." She took his hand and led him over to the table where she sat him down next to her. "Gotta name, kid?" She asked raising an eyebrow.

Kurumi glanced to the side as she found herself distracted by the conversation and...counting? going on beside her. What was this boy doing? Kurumi leaned over a bit to see if there was something he was counting like...words in the textbook, dots on the ceiling, people in the room, but he didn't really seem to be focusing on anything in particular. "eleven....twelve...thirteen..." Kurumi said joining him in his counting. Perhaps he would explain what he was counting? She certainly was curious.

Soooooo a new professor for the subject she never liked or understood! What an optimistic start of her second year! Louisa walked into the classroom faking a wide smile -epic fail btw- and crossed her fingers the minute her foor stepped in. Aaaand the first unpleasant Not-So-Appealing thing she noticed was the music. It was familiar but not her type at all.

Moving on. "Hi Professor--" I-Don't-Know, she added in her head and went on to the first table she came across. Trying to move faster so maybe this class would be over soon? Huh? And no she was not going to drop the subject for she must know everything about everything. :evil:

Emzily 01-10-2011 02:15 PM

Hmmm, Ancient Runes. Nathan really didn't know if he was going to enjoy this particular lesson this year. Although he was open minded about learning, Ancient Runes was just like... huh?

It was a good job that the classroom was calm and quite pleasant to be inside, actually. Upon entering the room, Nathan sat at a random table at the back, not even noticing who he was possibly sitting next to. He didn't really care about that sort of thing. He was here to learn, not socialise. Of course, that attitude only existed when he was inside a classroom. For now, and until the class actually began, he sat staring at the blackboard, as it wrote crazy words all by itself. Cool.

Tay walked into the Ancient Runes classroom absent mindedly, playing with her satchel before she noticed Draven- she smiled widely at him, and went over to sit on the same table. "Hey there!" she said, tucking her curls behind her ear and sitting next to him.

Destiny 01-10-2011 02:22 PM

Truebridge & Patroclus! :D
 
Finally!

Destiny didn't think Evelyn was ever going to wake up and get herself to class. That would be the last time she decides to wait and walk to class with her friend. Not that she was actually walking next to her or anything. Evelyn seemed to be in too much of a rush for that. Pffft, it was only Truebridge. It wasn't like he was going anywhere.

Well..never mind.

Making her way into the classroom, and snickering at the sight of Evelyn and her wild hair, Destiny scanned the rather full classroom for a place to sit. She would have sit in the empty seat next to Evelyn and all those people, but she spotted Patroclus and there was a rather shiny thing pinned to the front of his robes. "Hello Professor Truebridge!" she greeted with a salute before plopping herself down next to Patroclus.

Yes, she was eying up that Prefect badge of his. Hopefully he got the hint that she wanted to WEAR it!

Pleeeeease!?

Bennet's brows furrowed as he watched the odd situation before him unfold. This kid looked scared of his own shadow. Poor guy. Probably a first year. Bennet could relate to that feeling. He hadn't ever been particularly shy or extremely outgoing. He was simply an average kid with average social skills and comfort. But when he found out he was a wizard in a non-magical family, well... let's just say he was freaked out by himself for awhile. And he withdrew from a lot of social situations for a long time. But four years later, he'd finally come to terms with who he was and embraced it.

Did class really have to be so early in the day? Ethan was not completely awake yet, having not quite gotten used to getting up so early after sleeping in all summer long. At least he did not appear to be late yet, internally thanking whatever higher power made the Ancient Runes classroom relatively near to his common room and not like in the Dungeons or something. Lazily he shuffled through the door and, after a quick glance around the room told him that his brother was not yet present, Ethan made his way towards a random table near the back.

"Professor," he nodded a brief acknowledgment as he passed the man at the front and took his seat. Not really noticing who surrounded him - he was far too tired for that - Ethan leaned back in his chair, covering a yawn with his hand and waiting for class to begin. Hopefully it would start soon because his eyelids were getting awfully heavy...

After he returned he began, yes you guessed it, counting, "One, two, three..."

Cassie strutted into the classroom nose in the air, in her well pressed hogwarts uniform. Yep she was ready for school and here she was at her first class, with professor Truebridge non the less. What a way to kick off the school term.

" good day professor." she greeted before walking past him to join the students at a table. Well this should be quite interesting. She looked around the class room and spotted a few familiar faces, name hotboy who seemed to be waiting for someone. Hmm

Oh boy. Bennet could faintly hear the sounds of two voices counting now. He glanced back over his shoulder to see what was going on. Well, as long as it makes them happy. Although, I really hope they don't tap throughout the lesson. That could get distracting...

Katelynn walked through the door into the classroom, and was overwhelmed with amazement; she didn't quite know how to describe the room - but it was definitely different from the other class rooms she had seen in her life. She walked along the bookshelf looking at all the different books..
Then she realised that she was here for a lesson!

" good day professor." she greeted before walking past him to join the students at a table. Well this should be quite interesting. She looked around the class room and spotted a few familiar faces, name hotboy who seemed to be waiting for someone. Hmm

Still trying to wake up, Ethan tried to focus on something - anything! - remotely interesting. His eyes fell on a young boy, intently tapping his fingers and counting along with each tap. The behavior struck the sixth year as slightly odd, but as he watched he began to zone out even further. The counting had a sedative effect on Ethan, much like counting sheep, and his eyelids grew heavier still until they closed completely.

The sudden appearance of another at his table startled the boy awake, however, and he quickly sat upright, combing his fingers through his hair trying to nonchalantly regain his composure. Noticing that the other person was female - and a rather attractive one at that, Ethan gave the girl a small, crooked smile and brief nod. "Hey, how's it going?" he added, as he resumed his casual lean back in his chair, followed by another yawn that he quickly covered with his hand. Oops, still tired.

Roxana walked into the class room. "Good morning", she nearly whispered. A few students looked at her, but no one said a word. She never had any lesson ancient runes, so she was excited as hell. She didn't know how it was going to be and she sat down quietly. Rox wanted to give her best in this class. And that would just work, if she didn't talk much. After pulling out her things she stared at the board. So, let the class begin, she thought, smiling.

"Hey there." Heather whispered trying to get the girl's attention.

Table or area with Salamander, Evelyn, Marie, etc.
 
Sierra would have long ago considered just turning around and walking right back to the Common Room had it not been for the fact that she'd just seen Salamander, Marie, and Evelyn walk through the classroom door. There had been others enter that she'd seen around, too, but she hadn't been introduced to them just yet.

...but she had heard horror stories about Ancient Runes. All from her older sister, of course, which very well could be due to the fact that Anna was terrible at Ancient Runes. Or so she claimed to be, at least. She'd taught Sierra absolutely nothing about the subject, and so the first year was now pretty much about to walk into the classroom blindfolded.

Maybe if she just sat in the back or near a lot of taller students, she'd go unnoticed and could just listen the entire time. That sounded like a good idea to her, so with some sort of hope, she opened the door to the classroom and stepped inside. A song about castles on a cloud streamed beautifully throughout the room, and for a minute, Sierra almost forgot about how uncertain she really was. "Hello, Professor," she said, greeting the man she was sure everyone but herself already knew. Although she'd heard he was new to his current position, it seemed almost everyone she'd talked to had been in a classroom with him at some point and time before.

She bee-lined to a table where her Slytherin friends, as well as a few others she'd seen around, sat talking amongst themselves. She smiled at a few of them before pulling out a chair and joining them. They all looked tall enough for her to blend into. She wasn't going to read a book, though, as she saw a few others doing. Merlin, she'd be lucky to translate a title in Ancient Runes, much less a whole page!

Drawing her attention back from the rest of the room Cassie finally really looked at the person she was sitting at the table with. Her eyebrow raised as she watched the boy move from being almost asleep to seemingly wide awake. Well that was interesting. She smiled at him however and rest her chin in the middle of her palm as she quickly looked him over. Hmm not bad looking and he was wearing a RavenClaw tie which meant that supposedly he was smart.

Her eyes followed him as he raked through his hair with his fingers. Rawr.[B]" hey, I'm good and awake. You however seem to be half asleep." She said referring to that yawn that he had tried to cover up." Cassie Storm. How are you?" she offered him her hand.

Rox looked immediately at the girl which was talking to her. "Hi. I'm Rox, and you? Is that your first lesson, too?", she whispered while Professor Truebridge was talking in front of the class. The girl next to her looked nice.

Bennet didn't want to pry or seem nosy, so instead of explicitly asking what happened yesterday, he inquired, "Do you want to talk about it? Ya know, about whatever happened yesterday?" Bennet was mildly curious about the 'drama' she referenced. Not in an edge-of-his-seat, can't-mind-his-own-business kind of way, but in a it-might-be-good-to-know-what-other-students-are-doing-around-this-place kind of way.

Following her line of vision to the Counting Boy, Bennet shrugged. "I think so. I'm hoping so, anyway. Probably just nerves. A really bad case, by the looks of it."

He wasn't quite sure what she was saying, he was concentrating on blocking her out.

But, her persistence continued to prevail and she ended up grabbing his hand and taking him away from the table... hadn't he said he was happy with his seat. As soon as she sat him down, he got straight back up, "Thank you for showing me your table... it's lovely, now I must get back to mine. I enjoy it there."

After he returned he began, yes you guessed it, counting, "One, two, three..."



"Eight, nine, ten..." but before he could continue onto eleven and so forth, someone else already seemed to be continuing for him. His fingers continued to tap as this new girl (not the other one that insisted on touching him) counted for him. It was strangely soothing having someone join in with him instead of trying to distract him, for once. He gave her a brief, awkward smile, before placing his attention back to his tapping.

Jaina entered into the classroom reading Much Ado About Nothing, her fave play by William Shakespeare. She heard the music coming from the front of the classroom and began to hum a bit. Not paying attention, she tripped over the back of a boy's chair and stumbled to the ground. She sat up and gathered her books that have been thrown from her blue messenger bag. *mumbling* "stupid feet not knowing where they're going. probably looked like an idiot just now..." She looked up and her blue eyes met his. She shrinked back a bit waiting for the hex. She had heard that the older kids do that and being unsure of which year he was, she was sure she was gonna get it. "Um, I-I'm r-really s-sorry." She whispered barely audible. "I-I'll j-just s-sit over th-there. P-please d-don't h-hex m-me. H-honest m-mistake." She scooped up everything and sat at a table by herself. She began reading her book again, but this time she glanced every so often at the boy hoping that he would be kind to her.

Salina sat down, the Veela looking around for a familiar face. Finding none, she whipped out her textbook and began to read.

"Yep." Heather said quietly so as not to disturb anyone. "I'm a firstie."

"Umm, just something about me almost slipping a guy I had a crush on love potion. But I didn't know it was love potion or what it would do. His stupid brother just told me it would help him find his feelings and voice them and that Derian would like it." She rolled her eyes. "So now Derian is mad at me and I'm mad at his brother Rafe and I'm out of friends, with the exception of Nika."

Heather looked back over to the boy. "I hope he gets better, he's not going to survive in this school if he doesn't man up."

"Ah, okay. So, let's find out what Ancient Runes is about", Rox siad quietly. "Did you learned anything for today?", she asked carefully. She never learned a thing for the first lesson, but everyone around her seemd so prepared, that she needed to ask.

"That these ruins can be traced back to the Anglo-Saxxon time period." Heather answered simply. "What about you? Feeling the ruin love yet?"

Perhaps Jake would like to be alone? But still...

"Hey Jake." With that, the Hufflepuff prefect eased into the seat which was opposite his housemate and friend's.

"Hey," Jake responded simply, reading his book but still keeping one ear open, ready to hear anything interesting. He'd known it was Cedric straight away, of course.

When he heard some kind of problem, the girl who dragged another boy to her table, he looked up for a moment and raised an eyebrow. That was... rude.

Looking back at his textbook, Jake found it hard to focus again. It really wasn't as easy as he thought it'd be, reading with sunglasses on.

Sebastian - JeshieRAWR
 
Bonnie stopped for a second outside of the classroom and brushed down her black robes. She pulled back her hair into a messy knot and pushed open the door to the classroom. Her bag hung over her shoulder and she looked around at the different tables. First off, say hey to the new teacher. ..Well, old teacher who came back.

She passed the desk and while doing so she flashed a smile at the professor and said, "Hey Professor, great to have you back!" And she quickly looked around at the tables again and saw an empty table except for one boy. A boy she reconised well from Diagon Alley. She grinned and headed over.

"Hey Sebastian." Bonnie chirped as she dropped her bag underneath the table and plopped down in the seat next to him. She flicked back her messy knot of white blond hair and leaned down under the table to get her quill, ink, parchment and Ancient Runes book. She took out the stuff one at a time and wrote at the top of the parchment with her quill; Ancient Runes Lesson 1.

Bonnie hummed along to the song playing on the gramaphone. She drew a little doodle on the side of her parchment and smiled warmly at Sebastian. "I've thought of a nickname for you. Sebsters. Whatcha think?" She grinned and pushed back a lock of hair behind her ear. "So, do liak Hoggy Warts so far?" Crazed!Girl asked, opening her Ancient Runes book.

She began reading her book again, but this time she glanced every so often at the boy hoping that he would be kind to her.

Thankfully the conversation about his mental stability between the older boy and the touchy-feely girl was too quiet for Tyler to hear, otherwise he'd likely be counting more rapidly than he was the now. However, the girl who was counting with him had calmed him down considerably, so much so that... well, he actually stopped tapping. "Forty-eight, forty-nine..." and that was that, he stopped. His nerves had settled and not even the enchanted blackboard made him nervous anymore.

He simply sat in silence, staring at one spot on the wall, waiting for the class to eventually start. Although his inner zen was short-lived when a girl collided with the back of his chair, causing her to fall and for Tyler's chair to be twisted slightly, all in rapid succession.

He began shaking, after being thrown off guard again. He simply stared at the girl, he didn't shout, he didn't scream, he did nothing. Just stared. The girl stuttered her apologies before heading to a nearby table to read. Ty continued to stare at her though. She seemed terrified, which interested him. It very much reminded him of what he looked like in Muggle primary schools when one of his bullies decided to introduce him to their fists.

When she looked up once from her book, he merely raised his hand and pointed at an empty seat at their table. That was all. He didn't even speak to offer her the chair. She would either realise what he was insinuating or she would remain at her table by herself. Either way, he didn't much concern himself with it.

I....LOVE..Les..Miserables O__O
 
Runes with Truebridge?!

See now THAT was awesome, and if it wasn't good enough, the minute the Head Girl strolled into the classroom she heard.. Was that.. Les Miserables? Her eyes lit up at the sound of 'Do you hear the people sing' being played over the top of the students chatting amongst themselves. That.. was.. COOL!! Typically, Trixie sang the tune quietly under her breath, not really wanting to make a complete and utter fool of herself before the lesson even began.

After she had got over the fact her favourite musical was being played, the seventeen year old found herself a desk to sit in, not really taking note of whom was in the classroom already, she hadn't seen any of her close friends as of yet, then again, she wasn't exactly paying attention.

*Squeeeeee*

Yes the music had completely distracted her from whatever it was she was supposed to be doing, which.. well it was sitting and waiting for the lesson to begin. Now.. Err.. Someone join her.. Pretty, Please?

With Cherries on top?

It wasnt long before Draven noticed another person sit down beside him. To his delight it was his favorite lady,

"Hey baby! How are you?" he said nudging her and giving her a quick hug.

He was estatic that Tay was in the same class with him and he smiled at her.

Just placing her quill down on the table next to her brand new notebook...when she heard a movement near them. Meh, movement. That meant SOMEONE was near them which meant...

Well Evelyn was just in a grumpy mood.

However, noticing it was Sierra, the Slytherin's expression became a little less glare-y and a little more...not glare-y. Sierra was an acceptable person. "Hi." Mmhmm, there may have even been a small smile with that greeting. Who knows though! It was gone faster than someone could blink. "You don't by any chance happen to know a good way to destroy metal do you?"

Obviously, she said this quietly considering a certain Slytherin She-Snake who owned a certain metal object entered the classroom... yet surprisingly sat not with them, but with a certain Gryffindor. What in the world?

"Don't look so worried." Heather said smiling. "I just read that from the book, and I'm obsessed with things like this so I have a bit of a head start. If you need a tutor or something I'd be happy to help?" She asked warmly.

"Mind if I sit here?" Chris said quietly to the girl sitting alone. She was nervous about going into her first lesson having learned nothing, and didn't want to just make things worse by sitting alone. She played with a long strand of golden-brown hair, waiting for the girl to put down her book and reply.

First Lesson of the term. Yep. Orlando was surely back to Hogwarts. "Hello Professor." he greeted the teacher before making his way to an empty seat.

Hera 01-10-2011 04:09 PM

Emily rushed into the classroom and hastily took a seat. She hoped that she was not late for her first lesson of the term.
Emily pulled out her quill and ink, followed by some parchment. Setting it down on the desk she looked around the room at her peers.

"We're on time!!!" she said excitedly as she followed Emily's lead and took out her quil and parchment.
