He did not want Lafay to be angry with him so he followed her instructions like he always does. He was pealing the skin off the creature, slowly and gentle. He did not want to screw up. After a couple minutes he got the skin off into four pieces. Nigel was happy about that and maybe next time he would get it in three pieces. He then put the pieces in the harvesting tray and waited to see what the they would be doing next. |
If anyone was looking for Ella she was still sitting there...peeling the skin off of the plimpy...yup. Just peeling away...like it was her job. And it was taking forever too. Luckily the second year had managed to get off three large pieces after the first piece ripped almost immediately. Now she had about half of the plimpy left to peel. That wouldn't be too bad right? Picking at the skin with her fingernail again, the second year was able to get a piece lifted up so she could grab on to it. Right, now all she had to do was pull. Slowly and carefully, Ella tugged on the skin. And she was pleased too, cause it was actually coming off in one piece. Woah! She was like a peeling expert now. Mwahaha! Take that, plimpy. Now you're skinless. Yup. And with a small smile, the rest of the skin was off. And then the second year placed all of the disgusting skin bits on to the tray. NOW was class over? |

With a slight jump, the almost-permanently wincing Ravenclaw watched with quiet horror as the Potions Mistress simply turned the Plimpy over with an audible smack. And rrrrrip goes the skin. He gripped the edge of the table so tightly because he could feel himself slipping towards the floor. Woe is he! Woe is he! With every lift and tug and ripping sound of flesh separating from muscle the Ravenclaw inched his way along, a barely audible groan emitting from his tightly sealed lips whenever pieces of skin would come off in his hand and he had to start teasing and lifting whatever's left on the body. Finally after what seemed like an eternity of peeling he had a small pile of oddly shaped pieces of skin on the harvest tray. He slumped back into his seat, his own skin still crawling and twitching as if someone's been trying to de-skin him too. SPOILER!!: Vickers' notes |

I. Want. This. Class. To. Get. Over. RIGHT. NOW. Chelle was growing agitated. She didn't want the peel the skin off. She wanted to conjure up a dagger and destroy the plimpy and go back to her dormitory. She was tired of harvesting. But since she was a good and sincere Ravenclaw, she wasn't going to make a fuss. And this was good for her. It helped her practice being strong-willed. She examined her nails. They weren't very long, but they were long enough. She started from the top and started gently peeling off the skin. For a brief moment, she thought she could go halfway down smoothly, but then the skin tore. "Ugh," she cursed. She tried again with both her hands. She separated the first piece and put it on her tray. Then she struggled again to get the rest of the skin off. After what seemed like two hours, she had rid the fish completely of its skin and on her tray lay five odd-sized peels of plimpy skin. She felt as if she was going to collapse. |
Jory got all the slime off of his hands after a while and got it into the tray. Next, he turned the plimpy the way Professor Lafay had turned hers. Peeling the skin off wasn't as bad as harvesting, right? Jory set to work. The skin came off in various shapes as it was peeled off. He carefully placed the pieces into the tray, not wanting to break them into even more pieces. |
Glancing down at her gloved hands, Kurumi leaned over her table just a bit until her left hand was hovering over the tray and used her right index and middle finger to squeeze any slime off her fingers and into the tray. She repeated the process with her left two fingers, and then again with her right, and again with her left, until there was no more slime to remove and her gloves were clean. For the most part at least. They still had a slight glimmer to them but the only way to get that off would be to remove her gloves and put them on the tray. Kurumi's face was one of horror then Professor Lafay essentially slapped the plimpy down on the table like a slab of meat. Sure, the creature was dead and gutted like a fish fillet now, but was there a need to just slap the creature down like that? The woman could be a little more respectful. So, Kurumi gingerly turned the creature over as instructed and then tried to find an edge of its sliced skin that she could begin to work with. Starting somewhere towards the bottom of the plimpy, Kurumi wrinkled her nose as she began to pull upwards on the creature's skin and bit down on her lip at the squish!rip noise that came from it. This was...disgusting... Kurumi continued to pull when the skin ripped and she placed what she had managed in the first go, which wasn't much, onto the tray. She lost track of how many pieces somewhere around five, but continued to work until she had removed all the skin from the creature. Now it really looked like a fish fillet...at least now she was able to detach herself from it being a plimpy. |

Merlin's sparkly hat! There was nothing good about that icky yucky thing! Anyway, the only reason Nora didn't want to waste any of it was because professor Lafay said so, and the girl was too afraid to do otherwise. When she was done with that, she turned it around as she kept making disgusted faces at the not-anymore-plimpy. It was... blehh, it couldn't be called a plimpy anymore. And now... THE SKIN?! ... She closed her eyes again, no surprise there, and started pealing the THING'S skin off... but of course she couldn't do it the way professor Lafay did it. She did in four pieces, but at least it was good enough... so she tossed them into the harvesting tray. |

Therefore, she held one hand over the collection tray and carefully tried to use the fingers on her other hand like a scraper to get the slime off. Scraping her fingers on the edge of the tray, she switched hands and repeated the process until both gloves looked almost as clean as she could have gotten them with her wand. Hopefully that was good enough for now, and she moved on to gently flip her plimpy carcass over so the skin side was facing upward. Time to start peeling, and she wasn't about to think she could manage it in one piece like Professor Lafay had. She'd be happy with only a few pieces, but she needed to start either way. Reaching for the cut edge near where the tail fins had been, she found a tiny loose edge and managed to pinch it between two fingers. Pulling upward, trying to go as quickly as possible while still being careful, she flinched slightly at the wet ripping sound it made when separating from the meat, but kept pulling until she hit a particularly stubborn spot where the loose skin just ripped free. Dropping the skin in her hand into the collection tray, she picked delicately at the edge where it had ripped free, managing to loosen it enough that she could get her fingers between the skin and the meat again, then she pulled upward again. Once again it tore before she got all the way to the head, but she simply placed the new piece into the tray before repeating the skinning process. Third time seemed to be the charm, as she finally managed to get the last of the skin loose and placed into the tray. Now all she had left was plimpy meat, which she really hoped they weren't going to be told to eat. Not after she'd seen everything that went into getting it to that point, but while she waited to see if they were finished with the harvesting, she gingerly peeled a glove off to copy the last couple steps into her notes. She still didn't want plimpy goo on those. Text Cut: Stella's Potions journal |

He started to pluck the other organs such as the kidney, stomach, liver, etc... and placed them into the harvesting tray. After awhile he watched them as they slowly vanished one by one. Professor Lafay started explaining why they are using their hands for plucking the organs and she did have a point with it. It's easier when plucking things with their hands rather than with instruments. It's convenient that way and faster perhaps. But then they are now going to harvest even the slime. Ew. Why? Why even the slime? That's even gross than the organs. Jonathan shrugged as he looked at Professor Lafay's demonstration. After observing, with his hand, he squeezed as the blood came out and as well as the slime. He placed them carefully into the harvesting tray. Phew. |

Erin then carefully turned it around so that its skin faces her. And now...peel off. Starting on its head, Erin peeled and peeled a number of times since the skin breaks off everytime. And on to the harvesting tray. When it was almost ripped off with no coverage, Erin looked at the Professor for the next instructions. |
SPOILER!!: professor They weren't finished? And now they had to remove the skin. Wow, they really didn't let an inch of the disgusting creature go to waste, did they? Silvia flicked as much of the slime as she could into the tray, then slowly turned over the plimpy so it didn't make too loud of a slapping sound. Reaching for one end of the skin, she carefully peeled it until a piece ripped off. She placed the piece in the tray and returned to peeling until the plimpy was bare of its skin. It had taken several tries until all of it was removed. Okay, so now what? How much more did they have to do before they could leave? |

"Last two steps." She said and she hooked one finger in it's mouth. "With your finger, pull on it's mouth, it'll rip off." And as it did the sound was disgusting. "Don't worry about how it rips..." she dropped it in the water and then the harvesting tray. "Now just start ripping the meat up in pieces, oh and the sound is something plimpies make." She began ripping. The sound was loud, wet, gross and almost like a cry. "You need to make them into small two inch pieces. Try to ignore the sound of the flesh ripping." |

Jory gingerly reached over to the plimp's mouth and tugged at it. He got it off in one piece... after some disgusting sounds. After putting it into the water, he placed into the harvesting tray. He was not looking forward to more of those sounds but he gritted his teeth and began to rip up the plimpy, taking care to be sure he measured out two inch for each pieces before. |
Alyssa watched as the Professor demonstrated the last two steps...'Or so she says' Alyssa thought to herself...where she showed how to remove first the poor creature's mouth and then later on how to 'demolish' the rest of the plimpy's body. Alyssa picked up her quill, hopefully for the last time in this lesson, and wrote down the steps in her journal. Text Cut: Alyssa's Potion Journal She shook her head before proceeding to hook her finger into the plimpy's mouth and began pulling on it until it ripped right off. Still holding it hooked around her finger, Alyssa first dropped it in the tray of water to clean it and once it was cleaned, she placed it on the harvesting tray and watched it disappear. Then she turned back to what was left of the poor creature, and started tearing it's flesh apart, making sure that each piece she pulled apart was at least 2 inches in length. She kept ripping and ripping, trying to ignore the wet sounds it made as she tore apart the meat. It got to the point where it grossed her out so much, that Alyssa had to hum the song "Under the Sea" from the muggle movie, Little Mermaid, quietly just to drown out the sounds. At the rate this class was going, Alyssa was pretty sure that she wouldn't be eating any kind of fish any time soon. She continued to rip at the meat taking great care that each piece measured about 2 inches long as she continued to hum the song quietly under her breath. |

Feeling rather woozy and still with that feeling of sickness she plopped it into the water to make sure it was clean before putting it on the harvest tray continuing to rip it apart, flinching at times at the sounds, sometimes even wincing slightly. She was so glad that it was already dead. And that she wasn't the Plimpy! |

Nora was just about to grin from ear to ear, so happy she was to hear it, but instead gasped loudly as professor Lafay ripped its mouth. It was so BARBARIC! But apparently needed to be done. Hooking her pointer in the plimpy's mouth - or what was left of it, that is - she pulled until it made that awful noise as she managed to rip it off. Grrr. And then... the flesh. Okay... breathe, Nora... it's the last step. For this part, she really didn't have to look at what she was doing, because she could feel when the pieces were two inches or however they should be. So she started ripping, although gently, hoping that it would make less noise... but she had no luck at that. And then she ripped... and ripped... until it was all ripped. There, professor, HAPPY? ... poor plimpy. |
Drama Queen Chelle xD Quote:
Chelle felt a bit wobbly in the knees. She felt really sick, but she tried to stay strong. "Remember that the professor said it's just the last two steps," she muttered under her breath, as if trying to reassure herself. As she opened her eyes, she lifted the plimpy and grabbed its mouth between her index finger and her thumb. She applied little force and the mouth seemed to come off with a terrible sound. I can't do this anymore. Poor, sensitive little Chelle collapsed right in her spot. |

steps, as she'd thought they were finished several times before and more steps had just appeared. Either way, she decided to copy down the instructions into her journal before she attempted to add even more shrieking to the room. It had been hard enough listening to the professor's dead plimpy protesting being torn to bits, and seeing as some of the other students had decided to get the process over with as soon as possible had only added to the din. Text Cut: Stella's Potions journal A distraction was definitely going to be needed, so as she put her gloves back on to finish harvesting her own plimpy, she racked her brain for ideas. She quickly dismissed the idea of using "Blackbird" again, like she'd done before, but eventually settled on quietly humming one of the pieces Matt had played for her over the holidays. If anything, that might help her learn it when he tried teaching her to play again, and it worked to calm her down at least as she hooked a finger into the mouth. Pulling, she tried to focus on the music in her head to drown out the noise of the jaw snapping free. then quickly dropped the loose mouth into the water and then moved it to the harvesting tray. Now all that was left was dealing with the remaining meat, and she really wasn't looking forward to that. How is meat making so much noise?, she wondered, momentarily breaking her focus on the music in her head but snapping back to it before she picked up the remaining plimpy carcass. There was no way she'd retain her sanity while doing what she needed to without the distraction. After another moment, she eyed the meat in her hand and then ripped. letting the silent musical distraction get louder as the shriek happened. At least the piece that ripped off looked about two inches, so she continued. Trying desperately to ignore the protests of the dead plimpy who it seemed didn't realize it was just a fish fillet by now, and she continued ripping until she ran out of plimpy carcass. That seemed like all she could do. At least if there wasn't any plimpy left, there shouldn't be too much left of the lesson. |
he is done for *dies* XD Quote:
He couldnt believe his ears, wondering if maybe he had misheard. But he saw the Professor RIPPING the JAW out like it was nothing. But the worst was when she got to the muscles. That sound! Like painful, blood curling cries! He thought this thing was dead! The cacophony of sound echoing in the dungeon walls was too much for him to bear. He was gonna collapse. Yes he was. And retch out his breakfast. He wasnt even conscious that his own feet has tried to bring him to the back of the class before he slammed head first into the bucket. And just slumped there, not moving. |

Now came the barbaric job. "How come they make that sound if they're...dead." Louisa asked curiously, eying her purely flesh Plimpy. Unless.. they weren't dead!!! and all this was pure torture?!!! Pfffffft, right. They were dead. They harvested everything from them. They had no hearts, lungs or anything to be considered alive. Convinced, the girl started ripping off the meat, wincing at every sound the Plimpy made. She took advantage of the time she spent on altering the piece's size into the one Lafay told them... rip.. rip.. ri- Text Cut: Vickers :O -p.. rip.. THUD! Louisa raised her eyebrows before turning her head to the source of the sound. Gasping she paused in her work, "Vickers!" She frowned, concerned, and looked up at the professor. She would've pointed out that he probably just fainted... but that made Lafay highly sarcastic and annoyed the last time anyone pointed out something to her, so Louisa just looked at the Dragon lady expectantly. ...she could sprinkle some water in his face? Like she did to that girl? Only this time, it was needed and not childish. |

Does this mean the lecture will end SOOONNNN???? NOOOO! Jonathan doesn't want that to happen yet. Time just flew by. It felt like they were just doing all of these in a span of 10 minutes. The next step is to rip of the mouth, Jonathan used his finger as what is suggested and then carefully ripped it off and detached the mouth off. Good. Then he placed them over to the harvesting tray as well and saw them vanish like the rest of the organs before. The last step is probably the most gruesome thing they have to do in the whole process of this activity. Jonathan peeled the rest of the meat left on the plimpy. He did hear the sound the plimpy is making and it's just... just... just... ack. |
