Smack dab in the middle of the day, History of Magic may not be the class you want after enjoying a relaxing lunch break but want it or not, it’s what you have. Making your way into the classroom the first thing that hits you is the nice cool breeze coming from the open windows.
At the back of the classroom, away from the last row of desks, happen to be two extremely old chairs. They appear as though they may be on the verge of breaking, but they must be there for a reason.
The desks have been arranged in their normal positions, two side by side. The only real difference happens to be small stack of papers on each desk along with an individual pack of coloured pencils.
As your eyes quickly dart to the front of the classroom you’ll notice that Scabior isn’t in his normal spot leaning against his desk, that would be quite a hard task considering the number of thin books stacked on his desk. Instead he sits behind it, like an actual respectable professor. He however, is not the only one at the front.
Sitting cross legged on a desk chair with wheels is a boy who looks slightly too young to even go to the school. He is continuously spinning around in circles until he catches sight of you, stops, and grins. “HELLLOO! Sit down, sit sit!”
OOC: Class has started! You are welcome to jump in just pretend like your charrie has been there all along! Class will begin in like...20 hours . Please familiarize yourself with the updated classroom rules. Your characters can chat, eat cookies, do a rain dance. Just remember Scabior is there, and SS and RPG rules apply.

They were learning about superheroes agaaaaain? Gah. Milton knew absolutely nothing about superheroes or comics or anything, even after all the Muggle Studies stuff last term. He didn't really pay attention. Comic books were simply not his thing, and a grown man wearing blue underwear over a stupid spandex outfit REALLY did not sound appealing.
So, he sat there. And stared at the kid. Because he didn't know what else to do.
They were learning about muggle comic books? And some guy named Superman...he looked a little funny in his outfit, but Sue wasn't going to say anything since she could tell that the professor's son was really into it.
Sue didn't really know anything about Superhero's or comics for that matter. So she decided to let other students in the class answer while she took notes...did they need to take notes on this? It seemed a little silly but Sue wanted to make sure she got a good grade so she continued writing whatever the younger boy said.
Oh, so he's been in the library ALL this time. Booo! That was BORING. Peyton just nodded slowly, but soon narrowed her eyes at him. It was NOT shocking to see Peyton in class. She attended them ALL, but she couldn't voice that because the lesson had begun.
Seth earned a sturdy glare from Peyton. Then she flipped her hair, and turned her attention to the front of the class. His NERVE. Hmph!
Seth held in a smirk and raised his eyebrows. He was always trying to push, Peyton's buttons. Yup, he was a fearless guy like that!
....
Keeping his attention on the lesson, he decided not to answer this question until something relevant comes of it.
Seriously? What's next? Anything that will actually be useful for school, or is this all they were going to learn?
Seth respected, so he'll just sit there quietly and listen to everyone's answers and to what the Pro- ...er kid, had to teach and so on...
Aw. Kyroh looked out at the class, noticing a few people who looked SAD. They just looked sad. And they didn't answer. Making his way over to three of them he placed a chocolate frog on their desk and gave them each a pat on the arm. "It's okay if you don't know! Don't be sad!" BECAUSE he was teaching them! So they would know!
Rachel looked down at her chocolate frog, smiling. Kyroh was so cute!
She obviously had no idea of what Superman's real name was, so she remained quiet but still smiling.
The Ravenclaw took notes of everything Professor Scabior was "writing" on the board.
SPOILER!!: You Awesome people, Kyroh says you're all RIGHT
Aw. Kyroh looked out at the class, noticing a few people who looked SAD. They just looked sad. And they didn't answer. Making his way over to three of them he placed a chocolate frog on their desk and gave them each a pat on the arm. "It's okay if you don't know! Don't be sad!" BECAUSE he was teaching them! So they would know!
"EVERYONE is right." Kyroh said with a grin. That made him want to spin around in the chair again. Instead he chose to remain standing but still managed a full spin. "But-uh-you-her." He pointed to the girl who first recongized as a Slytherin. "She said it best. He has superhuman everything. He can do all the cool stuff that everyone wants to do. It's like is Superman was your best friend you'd be all happy at first then you'd get kinda sad because everyone would love him and he could do everything but you couldn't so he had more fun than you." Having superman as a best friend would NOT be fun.
"So, Superman doesn't walk around with his underwear over his pants all the time. Only when Metropolis needs to be saved. Most of the time he's dressed up like a normal person like you guys or me." Kyroh paused. "But not really like you guys because you guys are wearing robes and Superman doesn't do that." Annnyyyywaaaaays. "When he's ready to save people he's known as Superman. But when he wears normal clothes he has his real name. Which really isn't his real name but we'll just say it is." Was that confusing? Did they understand?
"Who knows Superman's real name?" Did they know it?
Kyroh was actually doing pretty good considering the fact that he had told him to say whatever he thought was important. As answers were given off, Scabior tabbed his wand against the board creating a list.
Superman "Real" Name - ? Powers-
Super Strength
X-ray vision
Heat vision
Can Fly
Super Speed
Super hearing
Rejuvenation
Eidetic Memory
Super everything
Dylan just stayed quiet cause he had no idea who that guy's name was, he barely knew who he was from his mom trying to get him interested in muggle stuff. But he was always partial to the wizarding world stuff, which always made him mom sad. So he just listened to what others were saying cause it seemed that they all had very similar answers, saying his name was Kal-El or something funny like that "What everyone else said" he said after putting his hand up of course, cause they just had to be correct.. yeah? You couldnt have a whole class saying the wrong answers.. right? So he says that everyone was right and that it was that Kal-El business.
He then looked at the bored of this guys super powers, and Dylan's eyes were as wide as saucer. "Cool!" he blurted out without meaning to and immediately pretended to be noting down these superpowers, cause he didnt say anything at all.. nope not him! Man he would LOVE to have all those super powers, that would be so cool to do and to actually have those powers? Amazing!
Clark Kent. That was an easy answer and students began repeating it. Peyton decided that her participation was not needed since there were two answers to it and everyone seem eager to answer. She paid attention though. She had to. If not then she'd most likely get distracted and have no idea what was going on, and when it came time for homework she'd be forced to cheat off of Seth.
That and she HAD to keep her grades up or no Quidditch. That's a deal she made with her daddy. Oh weeeeell.

"We also have this one here-" He motioned to the boy on the now un-spinning chair. "This is Kyroh Scabior. My son." If the last name didn't tip them off. "And he is here for a reason." But they would realize that soon enough.
"I've said this before and I will continue to say this again, History of Magic is a complex class. But really from the name it's self you are given the gist of the subject. And for the majority of classes we learn of the history through textbooks. For this class that is not the case."
An IMPORTANT reason! The important reason was now right? Starting now. Alright. Sliding off the chair, Kyroh ran to his father's desk and grabbed one of the thin books. "Who knows what THIS is?"

"My papa brought me here today because he knows about comics but I know more." He DID! Just about comics though, nothing else. "And he wanted to talk about comics. I think. So i'm going to talk a little bit about comics and ask questions and stuff for a little while, and then he'll just sit here and talk later about history." Or when he wanted to talk. That was how it worked right?
"That's okay with you guys right?" Kyroh looked at the class and blinked, and then he waved at Sierra once more. He didn't really wait for a reply.
"So like that boy-the Slytherin looking one-" He held his hand out pointing to West "Said first, this is a Muggle comic. And then like THAT boy-" Cue pointed finger at Oakey. "Said-it's a Superman comic." Both those boys were smart. Kyroh liked them.
"Superman is a superhero. And you know...superheroes are heroes...that are super. Because superheros are so special they get their own BOOKS millions of them, like this one-called comic books." Just because they were so special. "There are so many superheroes. More than anyone can count I think, but in the muggle world there are three heroes that everyone knows." EVERYONE. Even babies. Not that he spoke to babies. Babies didn't speak, but they still knew! "The first one is Superman." He held up the comic again. "He wears his underwear over his pants and they are blue so everyone remembers him." Thats how THEY could remember him too! "So, being a superhero, Superman, saves people. And has powers. Does anyone know some of Superman's powers?""

Alec just blinked at the little guy -- Kyroh, was it? Yeah. -- who had stopped spinning around. Wow. This was... new. Alec put his elbow on the desk and his chin on the palm of his hand as he watched the little kid, a smile playing across his face. As long as the kid wasn't mean or anything. Oh? And what was that he was-
... GRIN GRIN GRIN GRIN GRIN.
SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUPERMAN!
Alec's eyes immediately lit up and he sat up a little straighter. This was going to be HIS FAVOURITE LESSON EVER. Especially if it was about SUPERMAN. And judging by all the questions that were being asked by Kyroh -- could he call the guy Professor Scabior Jr? -- it seemed as it it was about Superman. HOW AWESOME WAS THIS.
And everyone knew Clark Kent, yeah? YEAH. And since most of the students had already said that, the fifteen year old simply sat there and GRINNED at the comic book. ... Would he be able to borrow that...? Hm...

Dear Merlin, this class was moving along! Either that, or Sierra had pretty much zoned out for a while. How many questions had gone by? Enough for them to go from 'Hey, Kyroh' to 'What is Superman's real name'. Sierra actually knew about Superman. This was one time, in her opinion, that Muggle Studies proved to be useful. They'd done a whole year on superheroes and villans last school year.
She raised her hand. Did she have to raise her hand to Kyroh? "It's Clark Kent," she said. She had no idea about all those planet names that Kat was going on about. She just knew the basics, which was pretty much what they'd gone over last school year.

So Professor Scabior's son was the cutest and he'd given her a chocolate frog and they were talking about Superman. Best class ever? YUP!
The blonde bounced a bit in her seat as she scribbled down all the powers that she already knew, a smile on her face the entire time. This was neat, talking about comics in another class. It was something that reminded Ella of home and her Dad! Oh and Caleb, he liked comics too. BEAM.
Superman's real name? Ella smiled a little and raised her hand. "Superman is also known as Clark Kent, who's a reporter for the Daily Planet." Just saying.

Cassia liked the idea of having a kid give the lesson. Change was good, not that the snake got bored of Scabior. No the man was a bearable professor and he was on Cassia's editable list of cool people. For a very simple reason that he had taken them to the city of Atlantis two years ago! Mhmm..The snake remembered.
So back to the bouncing kid who was giving chocolate frogs...Cassia was eyeing people who got ones. So what was the man's name. The thirteen years old only remembered the 'Clark' part because it sounded cool....She thought. Though while she recalled the name like ALL the class spoke it first. The snake turned to look at her classmates and stared a bit. How come they answer so fast while it took her a while. Meh..At least she remembered...half of the name. "Clark.." She muttered with a shrug not feeling it was necessary but still. And another stare at the students.

"Hello!" He repeated.
"It was quite good, Miss Cambridge. Thank you for asking. Now, please take your seat." You were scaring his kid.
Lex giggled at the little adorable one. "It wasn't a staring contest silly, I just like staring at new things." He was new after all because she'd never seen him before and he obviously didn't attend any past classes that she was in. Was staring at new things a crime any way? It was fun and he had a nice face. Quite adorable. She liked looking at adorable things too...but only in moderation...short attention span and all that.
She looked to the Professor when he answered her question. It surprized her a bit that he actually bothered to answer so naturally she gave him a wide smile. "That's good to hear!" With that she skipped over to a seat. The lesson was gonna start soon anyway.
SPOILER!!: Kyroh's Question

OOC: Class has started so, act like you've been here the whole time if you wish to join! And I'd encourage you to!
NO WAY!
The Kyroh kid was gonna be teaching the lesson! Coool--wait...he wasn't gonna try taking points from them too like his father right? And that brought her to the next thing she would be spazzing out about. The professor had a son???
She looked at the thin book in his hand and was instantly reminded of last year's Muggle Studies class. Did she have to raise her hand for him...she did anyway. "That's a comic book!" She didn't see the need to mention that it was a muggle one...wasn't that kind of obvious?
She thought it was.
SPOILER!!: Next Question

Huh. Turning the comic around so he could look at it, Kyroh nodded. He hadn't looked at it when he picked it up from the pile. "You're right! It's that too. But I was just wanted you to say comic." That was okay. Kyroh walked over giving him a chocolate frog as well.
"You're right too!" He ran over, giving her a chocolate frog.
"I didn't even ask about Superman." He stared. And blinked. Maybe she could read his mind? Maybe she was so excited that she just went BAM and read his mind? That made sense.
"You're right! But no chocolate frog because he had to sae them. Alrightt Kyroh went up to the boy and gave him one too.
Uhhh...uhhh. Kyroh looked to his father, then back at the boy. "I'm not a Professor. I don't think that's allowed. I don't even have a wand yet." Sorry?
"You don't have to explain it. Everyone who knows what a comic book is knows what its like." Gosh. That was just silly. That was alright though. He walked over placing a chocolate frog on her desk too because she tried!
Kyroh frowned. "It is. And you're suppose to be happy about it! Because the people inside SAVE people! From bad stuff." She didn't want bad stuff to happen did she?
"No." Kyroh shook his head, back and forth and back back and forth. "He's Superman first, then he's known as the man of steel." Okay?
Before his son could say anything, Scabior was on the question. "Yes it is. As I stated before." Unless she was not listening. "Hold on, everything will make sense eventually. Just listen."
Kyroh blinked, and then suddenly appeared put out. "You're ruining it for anyone who wants to read!" He shouldn't ruin books! He thought this guy was one that he LIKED.
He knew X-Men! Heh! Kyroh smiled."I do!! I'll let you see them soon." There was a whole stack of those.
-
Scabior didn't interrupt as his son addressed the class. In fact he moved to his desk, and dragged the chair from behind it to beside it, then took a seat.
Running back up to the front Kyroh grinned. "I never knew your class was so smart!" Really! They had to be right? Because a lot of them knew about Superman. "So-" He took a deep breath. "My papa brought me here today because he knows about comics but I know more." He DID! Just about comics though, nothing else. "And he wanted to talk about comics. I think. So i'm going to talk a little bit about comics and ask questions and stuff for a little while, and then he'll just sit here and talk later about history." Or when he wanted to talk.

Just because they were so special. "There are so many superheroes. More than anyone can count I think, but in the muggle world there are three heroes that everyone knows." EVERYONE. Even babies.

"He wears his underwear over his pants and they are blue so everyone remembers him." Thats how THEY could remember him too! "So, being a superhero, Superman, saves people. And has powers. Does anyone know some of Superman's powers?""
Well of course they were smart and Kyroh was plenty smart for realizing that. He was a pretty decent kid who seemed nice and excitable. That was the best combination right there, especially the excitable part. Who didn't like a hyped up kid?
She sat forward on her seat, resting her arms in a folded position on her desk. See? She was even being interested--but only because this didn't have anything to do with history so far and she was more than okay with that.
His next question wasn't too bad either.
"He's got super strength and super speed and a whole bunch of super other things!" That right there was a fact. The dude was superman, he had to have all that and more or he'd be some lame rip-off that got stones hurled at him every time he walked around a muggle market or something by unsatisfied children who'd all gotten their dreams crushed. Duh.

Lex eyed the board suspiciously. Was she supposed to have taken those things down? They were common knowledge for the most part. If it came up again she'd taken them down but for now she'd keep her attention on the 'new' professor.
Pfffffft.
Was that a serious question.
"Clark Kent." She said with a nod. Yeah she knew the answer. She had been knowing the answer for the whole class so far. Professor Scabior needed to take a page out of his son's book. The kid knew how to entertain so naturally she'd be more likely to pay attention. When the Professor did stuff she didn't have a clue what he was going on about!...or maybe that had more to do with the subject matter that he was teaching....

Nuh-UH. Mo slumped against his desk, chin on his fist as he considered the course of the class with interest (and with some consternation). He had only offered the premise of the superhero, not the whole plot of the thing or anything. Anyone who knew Superman knew that the guy was an alien with superpowers. Duh-the-end.
And since everyone in the class knew his secret identity AND his alien name, it seemed to prove Mo's point. He raised his hand. "Tiny professor, I'm pretty sure I didn't ruin anything, on account of everyone already knew the premise of Superman, and if they didn't, I was just explaining the plot. But I'm sorry if I ruined it for someone, because Superman who is Clark Kent who is Kal-el is a pretty awesome dude."
Selina totally knew what was going on. Yeup. Except she had never read a comic book in her life, which, she supposed, was a SLIGHT hiccup in this lesson. But come on, look how cute the kid was. She had to at least try her best to understand what was going on.
So she just listened to everyone around him and then rose her hand copying answering the question, "Is his real name Clark Kent?" Or was it Clark Gable? MERLIN SHE COULDN'T REMEMBER!

Superman had a name? WHAT? Wasn't his name just Superman? Alice stared at the little kid blankly. His name was Superman, wasn't it? If wasn't, then why did they even call him that? Comic books had been LYING to her, hadn't they? Betrayed That's how she felt.
So apparently his REAL name was Clark Kent, then?
Superman sounded much more awesome, though. Just saying.

Superdorkgirl decided it was time to pipe up again, because Superman was superawesome and had a superboring real name...except his krypotonian one that is. That was simple, to the point, and awesome.
"Er, his kyrptonian name is Kal-El...well, Kal is the first name El's the last name...according to kyrptonian traditions." She nodded excitedly. "But he's um...named Clark Kent otherwise by his adoptive parents. WHO are super lucky i might ad. How many people can say they adopted an alien?" Yeah lucky.
She wanted an alien super-person-family member.

Penelope was actually sorta enjoying this class. Or at least she was enjoying it more than usual. Probably because the kid - Kyroh, right? - was talking and teaching, and he was honestly pretty entertaining. She hadn't really provided any answers, partly because the other students answered a lot faster than she could think of the answers, but she WAS still paying attention and actually listening instead of only half-listening or pretending to pay attention. She continued with her silence for this question as well, but maybe the next one she would attempt to answer.

Checking his watch one final time he flicked his wand closing the door. "Afternoon everyone." Standing up from his seat Scabior moved toward the spinning chair and rested a hand on it stopping it instantly. "Today our lesson will be a little bit different then usual. As you can see we have some board candidates at the back." He motioned to them. "Please don't distract them and they won't distract you." Got it? Good. "We also have this one here-" He motioned to the boy on the now un-spinning chair. "This is Kyroh Scabior. My son." If the last name didn't tip them off. "And he is here for a reason." But they would realize that soon enough.

An IMPORTANT reason! The important reason was now right? Starting now. Alright. Sliding off the chair, Kyroh ran to his father's desk and grabbed one of the thin books. "Who knows what THIS is?"
Oh...so he was Scabior's son? Cute. Nina wasn't expecting Kyroh to give the lesson which was weird because a little kid was now their professor. Hmm. The Slytherin eyed the book the boy was holding and everyone had to know what it was. " A comic book" she nodded. Easy one.

"So like that boy-the Slytherin looking one-" He held his hand out pointing to West "Said first, this is a Muggle comic. And then like THAT boy-" Cue pointed finger at Oakey. "Said-it's a Superman comic." Both those boys were smart. Kyroh liked them.
"Superman is a superhero. And you know...superheroes are heroes...that are super. Because superheros are so special they get their own BOOKS millions of them, like this one-called comic books." Just because they were so special. "There are so many superheroes. More than anyone can count I think, but in the muggle world there are three heroes that everyone knows." EVERYONE. Even babies. Not that he spoke to babies. Babies didn't speak, but they still knew! "The first one is Superman." He held up the comic again. "He wears his underwear over his pants and they are blue so everyone remembers him." Thats how THEY could remember him too! "So, being a superhero, Superman, saves people. And has powers. Does anyone know some of Superman's powers?""
Kyroh's explanation made Nina chuckled. Now the class was more interesting and again the boy asked another question and even though many had already answered she didn't cared and said "He can fly" Yes and that was cool.
SPOILER!!: Kyroh

So they would know!
"EVERYONE is right." Kyroh said with a grin. That made him want to spin around in the chair again. Instead he chose to remain standing but still managed a full spin. "But-uh-you-her." He pointed to the girl who first recongized as a Slytherin. "She said it best. He has superhuman everything. He can do all the cool stuff that everyone wants to do. It's like is Superman was your best friend you'd be all happy at first then you'd get kinda sad because everyone would love him and he could do everything but you couldn't so he had more fun than you." Having superman as a best friend would NOT be fun.
"So, Superman doesn't walk around with his underwear over his pants all the time. Only when Metropolis needs to be saved. Most of the time he's dressed up like a normal person like you guys or me." Kyroh paused. "But not really like you guys because you guys are wearing robes and Superman doesn't do that." Annnyyyywaaaaays. "When he's ready to save people he's known as Superman. But when he wears normal clothes he has his real name. Which really isn't his real name but we'll just say it is." Was that confusing? Did they understand?
"Who knows Superman's real name?" Did they know it?
Kyroh was actually doing pretty good considering the fact that he had told him to say whatever he thought was important. As answers were given off, Scabior tabbed his wand against the board creating a list.
Superman "Real" Name - ? Powers-
Super Strength
X-ray vision
Heat vision
Can Fly
Super Speed
Super hearing
Rejuvenation
Eidetic Memory
Super everything
This next question she decided not to answer because it was pretty clear what was Superman's real name. Instead Nina waited for Kyroh to continue on and see what this lesson was going to be about.

Were her eyes glazed over yet? No? 'Cause was getting boring and everyone was just repeating answers. So, instead of adding to the growing pile of 'Clark Kent' answers, Sky asked a question of her own. "I'm sorry, but what does this have to do with History of Magic? Unless you're about to tell us that Superman is real and a wizard.....?" She said it in the politest way possible.

Minerva listened as other spoke and then the boy talked again. So this was interesting not hearing Scabiors talk.. The boy was interesting even if it was just dumb comic books.. Minerva had no interest in comics and didn't understand how it went with history of magic, but maybe because superman had magical powers or something.
Putting her hand up she waited her turn, "Well I'm not sure if he had a different name on his planet, but on earth his secret identity name was Clark Kent." Well at least it was in the TV show her mother use to watch when she was young. Louis and Clark was something her mother loved to watch. She smiled thinking about it.

Then she heard the first question. What was the thing the professor's dad was holding. Belle already knew it was a Muggle Comic Book. It was also Superman on the cover. It seemed so rare. Belle would have like to get her hands on it and read it.
Then she heard the second question. What was superman's abilities? Belle had to think about this...Belle knew Superman could fly. Belle raised her hand. "Superman has super strength, x-ray vision and flight." she said listing some off.
Then she heard the next question as she was listing Superman's powers in her notebook. Belle raised her hand and knew the answer to the next question. "Superman's real name is Clark Kent." that was an easy one to know.

Nigel had to think about wizards having to hid you they are in the muggle world and how it is the same with super-heroes. It was a cool comparison.

Being the deputy headmaster's kid didn't mean that he could teach, could he? Like, seriously, Ira herself was definitely older than Kyroh. And then just like that, the lesson started with.. Superman? Or Spiderman? And with all these thoughts, Ira had completely skipped the first questions.
And now.. real name? Oh yes, Ira, of course knew it! Being a muggleborn, Superman and other action heroes was one of the very few things that she had in common with the other muggles back home. "Its Kent! That's Spiderman's name." She answered, raising her hand up up up and almost bouncing in her seat. It was a really cute name. "Atleast it was Clark Kent on earth."

She did. He was so irresistibly cute in one way or another.
Anyway, back to the class proper. There were still candidates observing and Scabior was still their professor, watching them. Ok... Superman's real name. Kat's hand shot right up. "He actually has two real names," Kat explained. "His earth name is Clark Joseph Kent but his other name, in his Planet, is Kal-El." Actually, Superman was an alien.
That was scary.

"Kyroh, the name Superman was given by his birth father, Jor-El was Kal-lel. But in order to protect his identity, his adoptive parents called him Clark Kent. But I think that was also to prevent him from getting teased by the other kids."Alyssa explained.
'I mean which kid would want to grow up with a name like Kal-El?' Alyssa thought to herself.

Some people were saying Superman's real name was... Kal-El? Eh? She had never heard of that. "I've also heard it's Clark Kent." She said, agreeing with the others that were saying that. Though Nigel's answer really enlightened her about this Kal-El thing. It did make sense! She smiled at him before turning her head to face the cute ickle boy again, giving him a warm smile as well.

"Superman's real identity is Kal-El of Krypton, but on Earth and to those who don't know his Superman he goes by Clark Kent."

So he just listened to what others were saying cause it seemed that they all had very similar answers, saying his name was Kal-El or something funny like that "What everyone else said" he said after putting his hand up of course, cause they just had to be correct.. yeah? You couldnt have a whole class saying the wrong answers.. right? So he says that everyone was right and that it was that Kal-El business.
He then looked at the bored of this guys super powers, and Dylan's eyes were as wide as saucer. "Cool!" he blurted out without meaning to and immediately pretended to be noting down these superpowers, cause he didnt say anything at all.. nope not him! Man he would LOVE to have all those super powers, that would be so cool to do and to actually have those powers? Amazing!

They'd done a whole year on superheroes and villans last school year.
She raised her hand. Did she have to raise her hand to Kyroh? "It's Clark Kent," she said. She had no idea about all those planet names that Kat was going on about. She just knew the basics, which was pretty much what they'd gone over last school year.

Mhmm..The snake remembered.
So back to the bouncing kid who was giving chocolate frogs...Cassia was eyeing people who got ones. So what was the man's name. The thirteen years old only remembered the 'Clark' part because it sounded cool....She thought. Though while she recalled the name like ALL the class spoke it first. The snake turned to look at her classmates and stared a bit. How come they answer so fast while it took her a while. Meh..At least she remembered...half of the name. "Clark.." She muttered with a shrug not feeling it was necessary but still. And another stare at the students.

He was new after all because she'd never seen him before and he obviously didn't attend any past classes that she was in. Was staring at new things a crime any way? It was fun and he had a nice face. Quite adorable. She liked looking at adorable things too...but only in moderation...short attention span and all that.
She looked to the Professor when he answered her question. It surprized her a bit that he actually bothered to answer so naturally she gave him a wide smile. "That's good to hear!" With that she skipped over to a seat. The lesson was gonna start soon anyway.
NO WAY!
The Kyroh kid was gonna be teaching the lesson! Coool--wait...he wasn't gonna try taking points from them too like his father right? And that brought her to the next thing she would be spazzing out about. The professor had a son???
She looked at the thin book in his hand and was instantly reminded of last year's Muggle Studies class. Did she have to raise her hand for him...she did anyway. "That's a comic book!" She didn't see the need to mention that it was a muggle one...wasn't that kind of obvious?
She thought it was.
Well of course they were smart and Kyroh was plenty smart for realizing that. He was a pretty decent kid who seemed nice and excitable. That was the best combination right there, especially the excitable part. Who didn't like a hyped up kid?
She sat forward on her seat, resting her arms in a folded position on her desk. See? She was even being interested--but only because this didn't have anything to do with history so far and she was more than okay with that.
His next question wasn't too bad either.
"He's got super strength and super speed and a whole bunch of super other things!" That right there was a fact. The dude was superman, he had to have all that and more or he'd be some lame rip-off that got stones hurled at him every time he walked around a muggle market or something by unsatisfied children who'd all gotten their dreams crushed. Duh.
Lex eyed the board suspiciously. Was she supposed to have taken those things down? They were common knowledge for the most part. If it came up again she'd taken them down but for now she'd keep her attention on the 'new' professor.
Pfffffft.
Was that a serious question.
"Clark Kent." She said with a nod. Yeah she knew the answer. She had been knowing the answer for the whole class so far. Professor Scabior needed to take a page out of his son's book. The kid knew how to entertain so naturally she'd be more likely to pay attention. When the Professor did stuff she didn't have a clue what he was going on about!...or maybe that had more to do with the subject matter that he was teaching....

So she just listened to everyone around him and then rose her hand copying answering the question, "Is his real name Clark Kent?" Or was it Clark Gable? MERLIN SHE COULDN'T REMEMBER!

"But he's um...named Clark Kent otherwise by his adoptive parents. WHO are super lucky i might ad. How many people can say they adopted an alien?" Yeah lucky.
She wanted an alien super-person-family member.

Woah. They really DID know a lot.

And since everyone in the class knew his secret identity AND his alien name, it seemed to prove Mo's point. He raised his hand. "Tiny professor, I'm pretty sure I didn't ruin anything, on account of everyone already knew the premise of Superman, and if they didn't, I was just explaining the plot. But I'm sorry if I ruined it for someone, because Superman who is Clark Kent who is Kal-el is a pretty awesome dude."
Tiny Professor? Premise? Hmmm. "You're right!" Kyroh said happily. "Loooots of people know. So it's okay you didn't ruin it!" Kyroh even threw a chocolate frog his way.
Chocolate frog for not ruining stuff!

Er-....Kyroh blinked. And then scratched his face. His eyes flickered to his father a little defeated.
She didn't want to learn about Superheroes?
It was the second time that the question had been asked and that was TWO times too many for Scabior. "Like I said before which you would know if you were paying attention, it will make sense soon. So if I were you i'd either answer the questions or take take notes." Right? Good.
He flicked his wand once more, updating the board before motioning for his son to go on.
Superman "Real" Name - Clark Kent Also Kal-El Powers-
Super Strength
X-ray vision

Can Fly
Super Speed

"Um...." Kyroh looked down at the ground, suddenly sad because...there were some people who didn't want to learn about superheroes. "Um...." Walking over to the desk he grabbed another comic. "So, everyone was right. Almost everyone. But I think that counts for everyone. Superman's real name was Clark Kent but it was also Kal-El." Kyroh said a bit quieter.
If SOME of them didn't want to learn about Superheroes then they could go to sleep. The couldn't learn and sleep right?
"Do you guys know who THIS is?" He asked holding up the comic. The guys real name. Or his superhero name. Or BOTH. He was The BEST MUGGLE Superhero EVER!! So they HAD to know!!
OOC: Joining in after the class has stared is COMPLETELY fine. Catch up posts however are not. "catching up" will not earn you anymore points. In fact there really is no point of them. They only confuse the timeline of the class. So I ask that 'catchup' posts not be posted, just answer the most recent question asked. Thank you!

Alex was a bit confused as to why they were learning about superheroes. He was pretty sure this had NOTHING to do with history. Still, he knew a thing or two about superheroes and if it got him points, so be it! He raised his hand with a smile.
"That's Spiderman. Also known as Peter Parker," Alex said with a grin at the little boy. Awwwwww he was so cute. Hehe. And so excited about teaching the class! It was precious.

Nolan sat in the back of the class next to Erik and gave the man a look of confusion and raised his eyebrows. Wait, wasn't this History of Magic? Then why were they learning about superheroes? And why was a CHILD teaching them?
Nolan simply hoped that Scabior would eventually get to the real point of his lesson soon. He was really lucky that Nolan wasn't the one EVALUATING him and he was just here to...watch. Then again, maybe Nolan just had high hopes. After all, he'd only ever experienced LAINEY as a History Professor and honestly, she was hard to beat.
Still, he just didn't get the superhero thing. Hmmm. He just sat in silence, watching intently and straightening his bowtie every few minutes out of boredom.

Laura looked at the Professor and raised her hand. "It's Spiderman." Laura really thought that he was awesome, "He got.." she stopped, she knew how he got the name also but he would probably ask that later so she held her tongue for now.

Professor Scabior should be sued for having such an adorable kid like Kyroh! It was true that she, herself, didn't understand why they were talking about muggle superheroes at the moment when that class was History of Magic. Magic? History? Superheroes? Go figure. Yet she didn't care. REALLY. No care. Because Kyroh was TOO adorable of a kid to even think about the connection of the subject to the current discussion. She was taking a few notes though.
She was in love.....with his charm.
O.O....... Er, yeah. HUH? *BLINKBLINK* What in Merlin's trousers was she thinking?...Pssh. She was having too much pineapple juice these days that her mind is spewing nonsense. BUT...BUT...thinking that Kyroh was cute wasn't nonsense, right? She badly wanted to pinch his cheeks! Uuuggghh.. Mind! STOP!
Okay, okay....back to the lesson. MEH.
When mini!Scabior held up another comic, Beezus' hand went up. "That....." Omg. You're so cute! LET ME CUDDLE YOU! *coughcough* "....is Spiderman. He's also known by his non-superhero identity, Peter Parker." She said.
