Charms 1
 

As you walk into the charms classroom, you will see the room as it normally is. Straight rows of desks and chairs, all facing the front of the room where there is the chalkboard and the professor’s desk to the left of it. Your Charms professor, Professor Fuller, is leaning against his desk with his arms crossed over his chest, waiting for you to enter and take a seat.

Do be seated quickly, class is about to start! Class has now begun!

3. Introducing the charm. Practical instructions.

Eden wondered what Charms would be like. She was horrible at the magic stuff--well, anything involving a wand. She got nervous. And her wand LOVED to shoot up sparks when she was nervous.

Thanks, wand.

She was here a little early. Well then. "Hello, Professor--" why were all the professors at Hogwarts super cute? Well, NOT ALL OF THEM. Professor Walton, and now THIS one--she just sat down and siiiiighed. Boys her own age never looked like that. It was such a pity. A few boys did come close, though.

No one was here. Well, not anyone she was friends with. So she just tried not to blush too much OR speak too loudly. This class had Eden VERY nervous. Would her wand behave? Would SHE behave--as in, just have self some CONFIDENCE in herself?! PFFT. This was her mother's fault. She blamed her mother. EVeryone else in her family did, so she would TOO.

Thanks, Mam.

She spotted Maddie, who was also here, and waved. "Hi. Maddie--" the girl was so SMART. Eden wanted to be like Maddie...even if the girl was younger. She was still wise.

Charms class was today! Connor found charms to be interesting, well to be honest he found all his studies to be interesting. Punctual as usual he stepped into the classroom and greeted the Professor with a smile while he found a seat. "Hello, Professor Fuller." He greeted the Charms Professor as he took his seat, not too close to the front or not too far in the back.

But he was hopeful about this class, it would be a good one right? Divination freaked him out, Crystal balls and all that.. So he figured Charms would be simpler, maybe even fun? He did love to learn and maybe he'd get to sit next to his friends, or maybe make a new one. But now was time to wait.. he cleaned his glasses as he did so. Hmm. But with his glasses back on he spotted one! Eden. He got up and moved closer to her, mmhmm. They seemed to find each other most classes. "Hey.." He said through a smile toward her.

Charms. A subject at which Adi did fairly well in. It was no Care of Magical Creatures but he did manage to get by. The fourth year stepped into the very much familiar classroom. It seemed nothing had changed.

And there was the Professor. "Hello, Professor,'' Adi said cheerfully. "Hope all's well with you.'' Greetings out of the way, he waved at the few students already gathered as he settled down in a seat.

Ew. Girls.

The worst thing about coming early to a lesson was possibly being alone in a room with the teacher...and just girls. Gabriel was facing this very problem at the moment; two of which were in his House...as he'd seen them around the common room. When he wasn't in hiding. That was important to point out.

...And a Gryffindor boy he didn't care to know for reasons. Important reasons......Clara reasons.

...and a Badged person.

Making a particular FACE, Gabriel quickly decided he was just going to sit as close to the professor he possibly could. For now.


"........"

He'd been meaning to greet the man...but nerves. Staying silent it was, then.

Charms. It was an okay subject. Chance wasn't brilliant in it but he knew his way around the subject. Entering the class, Chance shuffled to a desk and laid his head down on it. He was tired, cranky, and impossible at this moment. Terrible things had happened today and he was in no mood to be his usually happy go-lucky self.

He looked up at the Professor to see if class had started. It hadn't. He nodded to the professor, a ghost of a smile playing on his lips. He didnt want to be rude to the professor. They hadn't done anything.

Looking back down at his desk, he would wait until the Professor started speaking. Then he would be a good little student and do what he was told. Until then, his head was going to be on his desk. And that was that.

Jasmine arrived for Charms class fairly early. Entering the classroom and looked around. Seeing Professor Fuller at his desk, she said, "Hello Professor". She then addressed her classmates. "Hello everyone". Jasmine found an empty desk and sat down. She put her bag on the floor and leaned over to take out her supplies. Time to wait..... hopefully not for long.

Despite sleeping for the majority of the last week and a half, Toby still felt exhausted. And kind of achey too, but that always happened after he did the whole crawlspacing thing. He just put it all down to the process of getting back his usual bounce and ~went with it~.

Upon reaching the Charms classroom, Toby was glad to find that his usual seat, at the side of the room by one of the windows, was still free, and he moved towards it as quickly as his tired self could handle. Once there, he took a seat and got out all his note-taking thingies, ready to... y'know... do this learning stuff.

The Hufflepuff yawned, and quickly covered his mouth with the back of his hand; okay body, we're sitting down now, chill. But he was forgetting something... what was he for- OH.

"Hey sir," the Hufflepuff looked up to the front of the room and finally greeted Professor Fuller, suddenly smiling as he turned his yawnin' hand into a wavin' hand. 'SUP. LET'S LEARN.

All that done, Toby leaned back in his chair and slumped relaxed for the meanwhile, looking out of the window until they started. He supposed it was too cold to open the window up, but the breeze would have been welcome.

It was time for Charms, and AJ was looking forward to it. She managed to do so-so in the class. The only problem she really had was the spell work. At the end of the day though, she normally managed to scrap by. Things could be different this go round considering she did have one whole year under her belt.

As she walked into the room, she spotted the professor. "Hello, professor." He had helped her pick out some books on unicorns, and for that he was pretty cool. Her boyfriend was already here, so AJ walked over and took a seat by Adi. "Hey," she whispered.

hehehe hi Gabe
 

Angel skipped into class, she was in a totally happy mood today. "Morning Professor." Angel smiled. "It's a lovely day today isn't it." Angel couldn't wait to see what they were learning today. This was going to be an epic lesson she could tell.

Angel smiled at AJ and Adi and then went and found a seat where she could sit. Once she had found one she sat down and waiting for the lesson to start. She wondered if Ben would turn up soon.

Ian walked into the classroom, fresh from trying to find something to eat. He was feeling a little sleepy and poorly rested. He hoped he'd have the concentration to handle today's class. His concentration skills had been rubbish for the most part since the feast. Understandable, but unfortunately not very useful. As he walked in, he made a point to actually speak to the professor. G'day, professor. Having gotten the obligatory pleasantry out of the way, he looked through the room for a seat.

Gazing around, he saw Adi and AJ (mental note, sit away from them). He saw the girl he'd sat near in History of Magic or DADA. He couldn't remember which and a few other students he wasn't sure of who they were. He decided to head for the back. He walked to the far wall, took the wall down toward the rear of the classroom and sat in the back corner seat, farthest from the door. In a challenging situation, he'd be the last to be able to make it from the room. Maybe not the best choice, but it was his choice. He looked through his satchel and found a bit of scrap paper and his quill. He took them out and began to doodle, while he waited for class to start.

Time for Charms class. He actually found this class interesting and challenging at the same time. But he didn't understand why professor's needed to start classes so early. Didn't they know teens need more sleep now more than ever. He managed to get some breakfast in his system but it didn't mean he was cheery. As he got to the classroom and entered, he noticed some students beat him here. He was usually fashionably late anyways. He saw the teacher at his desk and nodded and said, "Good morning Professor Fuller." He wondered if he was tired too?

But as he said his greeting, he made his way to a desk near the back of the classroom so he could hopefully try and take a nap before class begins. He put his backpack down and went onto to do some doodling or you know his backpack looked like a nice comfy pillow. He might use it.

Oh. Gosh.
 

...............What?

Having busied himself with getting materials ready, Gabriel expected to be left alone...considering he was near the professor. People usually avoided sitting too close to professors, right? So, when he heard a voice...it made little sense to him as to WHO would be willingly sitting this close....What was wrong....with....

........

..................

Oh.

Oh. No.

Gabe openly gaped at her a moment...but eventually...slowly nodded. He....didn't want to be mean to her....okay? She was really nice to him...and that was perfectly normal and not at all anything to get weird about. She was just...you know...less scary than.....the other ones...

Panicked. He. Was. Panicked. Why lie?!

Welp.......

Maybe this was a bad idea.

The whole gaping thing kind of put her off, made her feel uncomfortable and strange and maybe she should just continue on like she'd said nothing or-

Oh. Was that a nod? As in he was saving seats? "Oh... Well... that's okay." she forced a little smile, feeling dejected and started to move from him when she spotted her Soph. HI SOPHIE. She moved from Gabe and followed after her bestie, tickling her in the side as she caught up with her, desperately pretending she wasn't the tiniest bit sad.

"Mind if I sit with you and Toby?"

Sophie, not having seen a thing that had just taken place except for her perfectly executed fun-poking at Fuller, JUMPED when someone tickled her side and turned, giggling against her will and hugging her side protectively to see... CORAL-BAY ALDRICH.

"I'd be offended if you didn't," Soph grinned wide at her dormmate and took her hand gleefully, not at all picking up on any traces of sadness that might have been lingering in her bestie's demeanor as she walked with her the rest of the way to the empty seats by Tobes. "My two best friends." She gave a smile and a 'sup' nod to Tobes at this as her choice of greeting and veryyy casually peeked back up to the front of the room at Fuller as she took her seat.

Hehehehe. Hey, professor. Hey.

Charms always freaked him out. Mostly because he wanted to be good at it and the thought of failing made him feel as though he wanted to throw up. Kyroh had a brave face on though. He had been practicing his spells over the summer thanks to his mum and he was sure he could do it. He had to. Making his way into the classroom he glanced around and spotted Professor Messy Hair (what was his name again?) first. Last year he thought it was cool but that was before when he had worn his hair messy as well. Did the Professor know that Miss Dora said combed hair looked better? Maybe he had to teach him how to comb his hair yeah?"Hullo Professor Piersie!!!"

That was his name right? Cough.

"If you need help, I can teach you how to comb your hair okay?" Cool!

Spotting Maddie he smiled as he slipped into the seat next to her. "Who's that?" He asked pointing to the paper.

couldnt resist tbh
 

Toby wasn't really paying attention to anything other than the view out the window. He knew the scene from this position pretty well by now but that didn't mean he still couldn't become distracted by it. Lalala, pretty outdoors, lalala. He was too busy staring to WATCH the Soph!glitter!sass, but was sort of listening before becoming vaguely aware of her sitting beside him.

In fact, he was very happily away with the fairies and his thoughts, until he heard it.

Professor Piersie.

Still looking out the window, Toby burst into laughter, but VERY VERY QUICKLY forced out some coughing to cover his little giggling fit, and raised a hand to cover up his grin. COUGHCOUGHCOUGH. AHEM. COUGH. Gigglesnort. COUGH. He looked away from the window and around the room and LOOKED AT SOPH who was beside him and quickly looked straight back away again and OUT OF THE WINDOW.

VERY INTENSE WINDOW STARING.

COUGHGIGGLEGRINCOUGH.
