Default Lesson Two: A Pirate Life 'fer me!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~



~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


The History of Magic Classroom has changed alot since the first lesson! It has been charmed to look like the deck of an old pirate ship. There are still walls of course but the setting of everything in the room looks like the front of a ship. You can hear the ocean and birds just like if we were sailing away. There is even an occasional burst of wind that livens up the room a little bit. Nothing too crazy, but just enough that you swear you can hear the sails billowing above you. It is very magical and exciting.

There are still desks scattered around the ship's deck. Feel free to sit wherever you would like.

The professor has written a message on the board that is enchanted to scribble out in a messy but readable handwriting and stay for a few minutes and then erase and start again:

Quote:
ARGGG!!!

Ahoy t' Lesson Two: A Pirate's Life fer me!

Captain Gemma Cerulean
The Professor can be found at the door shaking everyone's hands as they enter the door dressed in her Pirate outfit. As you enter she greets you with a firm handshake or a pat on the bag and a hardy, "ARGGGG Matey!"

SPOILER!!: Gemma in Pirate Garb...haha...




OOC: Once again I'm sorry for the delayed start...yesterday our internet went down and I just couldn't force myself to post a new class from my phone...AHHHH!!!....so here we go!....

Please come in and have a seat. You may chat but keep it to a minimum. Remember that when class starts, you need to cut out chatting. Also don't post yourself coming in late, Gemma hates late arrivals and will not give you a warning, she will deduct points from the first time you are late.

I'm going to give you a few hours to get settled so I'll see you a in a little while!!! *huggles you all*

It made sense that not all pirates were violent, after all, and some, as wizards, could have been escaping persecution. Maybe the pirating itself was a reason to retaliate that persecution so that they wouldn't always be so helpless. They probably really were misrepresented and misunderstood, but responding with fear, theft, and death might have not been the best option to blend in, instead it only set them further apart from society. Eino wrote those thoughts down in his notes in addition to whatever else he was able to catch from the Professor. After that, he wrote down his homework and was all set. History of Magic lessons always made his hand cramp, but this time he hadn't even noticed it until the very end. He packed all of his belongings, waved good-bye to the Professor, and headed towards the plank. What a shame the History of Magic classroom was on the first floor. Although, at least the students wouldn't be harmed this way, but where's the fun in that?! He ran along and exited the classroom pretending he was falling into the ocean by making a splashing sound when he landed.

Helena wrote down the assignment, and then quickly packed her stuff to... leave on a plank?! Was professor Cerulean serious? But... no sharks under the plank, riiiight? Right. No sharks.

"Goodbye, professor," Helena said, as she passed the woman. And here it was. The scary plank. Almost tempted to walk with her eyes closed, just because she didn't like the idea, the girl made her way quickly out of the classroom or pirate ship or whatever it was.

Penny copied down the homework and stuffed the parchment, ink & quill into her back pack.
Then looking up the professor said "Ahoy, thanks professor, that was a verily good lesson... Aye, me parrot concurs".

Slung her pack over her shoulder and walked the plank that was connected to the slide..."Ohhh, this is gonna be fun"...

Kurumi narrowed her eyes for a moment and the professor, but not because she had done something wrong, but because Kurumi was deep in thought. Professor Cerulean sure seemed keen on reminding them that pirates were not always out for treasure and conquering. It was all very...suspicious...suspicious indeed.

Before she could let these thoughts develop any further, class had been dismissed and they had been instructed to...walk the plank?! Kurumi didn't like the sound of that at all. She then reminded herself that they were not on an actually boat - that had been Herbology - but still on the first floor of Hogwarts castle, so there really wasn't anything to worry about.

After gathering her things and checking the homework assignment over once more to make sure she had no further questions, Kurumi approached the professor and gave her a quick, but polite, bow. "Thank you for the lesson," she said before turning around and walking out of the classroom.

One more class where she had been struggling to understand what was being said down. Although, the woman had stopped speaking like a pirate after the first 10 minutes of class or so, which is probably why she remembered the latter half better.

Isabelle got up and joined the line to "walk the plank". She would freak if this was a real pirate ship. "Good day Professor, thank you for the wonderful lesson. It was quite interesting. I plan to ask my brother who goes to Durmstrng about the ship."
With that Isabelle walked the plank.

Kimalia smiled in relief. Another class done, now she only needed to work on the assignment. Scribbling it down into her journal she quickly got up to wave the Professor good-bye. "Have a good day, Professor." Smiling before leaving after everyone.

The class has ended already? But it was quite fun! D: Oh well, she better start doing the assignment. She has so much free time anyways.

Aiden grabs her bag and slings it onto her shoulder. As she about to leave the classroom ship, she looks over the professor captain and gives her a salute.
"Have a jolly day, cap'n," she smiles faintly before she "walks the plank".
