Default Herbology 1

The door of Greenhouse one is wedged open and ready for students to enter for the first Herbology lesson of the term. It's a bit chilly, but comfortable. The large, and relatively empty working table in the center of the room has seats all around it for each student.

Professor Millard is standing nervously at the front of the table, hands behind his back and rocking slightly on his heels. As soon as you enter, however, he straightens up and intensifies his expression. He greets each student with a nod.


ooc: Hello! Class will hopefully begin in around 14-15 hours.
Class has officially STARTED.


CLASS PROGRESSION:
Greetings and first question

~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.

What was needed after gloves? Oh yes! A pot and soil. Adi set a pot down in front of him and following Professor Groundskeeper's demonstration, he used his hands to add the soil to the base. Next up was the poor toadystool. The Hufflepuff gently took hold of it to transfer it to the freshly soiled pot. "Aguamenti!'' After the fungus received some water, he ended the charm then turned his attention to the mooncalf solution.

Three drops of the solution did the trick! The toadstool's colour was changing. It was on its way to being healthy again! "Awesomeee!'' Ahhh. There went the weird noises! And just listen tot that! The toadstool was imitating his awesome! Even the extra 'eee's. How cool was that?!

dream until your • dreams come true ~ Human pygmy puff

"OK little toadstool. I'm going to fix you right up." Janelle had finally gotten the hang of the water spell so she was hoping that that part would go smoothly. Taking out her wand, she made the proper movement and said, "Aguamenti" Water began to stream from the tip of Janelle's wand. With a relieved smile, she directed the water into the toadstool's pot. Careful not to over water it, she said, "Finite" to end the spell.

Reaching for the Mooncalf solution, Janelle carefully placed three drops into the soil. Then she waited. Slowly, her little toadstool started to perk up. It didn't look quite as peeky as before. It seemed to stand up straighter and didn't look quite as pale. Just like the Professor's, Janelle's toadstool began to make noises. "There, that's much better", she said. Janelle had to laugh when she heard, "much better", repeated back to her. Well the toadstool was definitely on the mend and starting to talk. Janelle placed it in a sunny spot on the table. Then she wondered what they would be doing next.

The Idea Man Kori-Kins

Angel knew that now she had the soil in the pot it was time for the poor toadstool, she just hoped that the Professor hadn't left it too late, could he tell she was a plant girl and loved plants, she had a garden at home and she was missing them all dearly. Angel put the toadstool in the fresh soil and smiled.

Angel then knew the next thing was to water them. ""Aguamenti!!" Angel did the wand movement and then she watched as the water came out of her wand, when it was sure there was enough she ended the charm.

Angel then turned her attention to the solution. She picked it up and then smiled as she gave a few drops of the mooncalf solution to the toadstool and watched as the colour started to change and it started to act differently, she was sure it was on it's way to being healthy.

Oh... OH... HIS BRAIN... huh... yeah well... "Okay." Mmmhhmm, he understood now. Though he wondered how it was able to speak or mimic sounds if it didn't have a brain. Weird. Also it was a shame about the tea thing being wrong, he didn't see why plants couldn't appreciate a bit of tea too. It was all organic matter after all... it couldn't be all that different to compost. Right?

Admittedly the demonstration for the whole toadstool reviving thing was pretty cool, and the sound mimicking was interesting. Noting down the steps, Zeke pulled on his gloves and got started on the task.

Lalalala.

Step one.

Soil IN pot. A bit... half.. or something like that. Zeke took a handful of the mixture that was waiting to be used and pulled a spare pot closer to his person. In it went. Zeke shook his glove off, letting a bit that was clumpy to fall into the bottom of the pot. He wasn't satisfied though, and so going back for another grab, he took another pinch of the soil and added that too.

Huzzah!

Next step. His toadstool!

Gently scooping it up into his gloved hand, he lowered it into his pot where he stood it carefully into the soil that was there. This seemed easy enough to him. Score! But before he could get to the proper fun stuff, he gave it a light watering. "Aguamenti," he stated clearly as he let the controlled trickle of water moisten the area around the toadstool, right near the stem.

With the dirt in his pot settled after its addition, Benny turned his attention to the toadstools available to help out on the table in front of him. He picked one out of the bunch, placing it down on top of the dirt before shifting it around slightly until he was satisfied with its location in the pot. There....that was looking like the best option, centered in its new home soon to be surrounded by what would be helping it feel better.

A glance at the board reminded him to give the toadstool some water before moving on, and Ben moved to do just that in case it was best for it to come before the mooncalf solution. "Aguamenti..." he cast, keeping it a small stream that dropped onto the soil around the toadstool, casting a quiet "Finite," to end the stream and make sure he didn't overwater his charge.

Was it just him...or was it already looking better?

Regardless, he wasn't quite done. The Gryffindor reaching to receive a dropper of the mooncalf solution, adding a few drops into the mix around the base of the toadstool. Now it was definitely starting to look better. Benny could see the change as he straightened back to watch. "There..." he absently said for his own benefit but soon enough the toadstool seemed to make some noise to react to it.

Now that was cool.

Certain his toadstool didn't need any more water, Zeke stopped watering with the simple command of, "Finite." With that task done, there really wasn't much left to do.

Reaching for the mooncalf solution, the Gryffindor unstopped the bottle and with the little dropper thing added a couple of drops to the soil. Just the two drops to begin with, but then he added another.... and another. And weeeeeee! It was working!!! He could already see the colour returning, the toadstool no longer looked like a sad, bruised button mushroom in the bottom of a grocery store box. Yep. It was healthy looking.

"Hi," he said to the fungi, grinning as it mimicked his sound only the tone was higher, squeakier even.

Alright so Hady had the toadstool nicely set inside the soil in the pot. Now it was time for a bit of water. Pulling out her wand she pointed it at the toadstool clearly stating the simple spell, "Aguamenti." A thin jet of water sprayed from her wand wetting the toadstool and then the soil in was planted in as well.

Cancelling the spell with a quiet "Finite" and pocketing her wand it was time for the final step. Checking the items on the table she quickly located the dropped which held the mooncalf solution. Picking that up she very carefully added a few drops to the toadstool.

Keeping a close watch it was easy to see that nearly instantly her toadstool began to look healthier taking on a brighter color. This was good, very good. Then out of nowhere 'he' (the toadstool) began to make a soft whiny noise gradually getting louder. "I did it..." Hady whispered softly with a small grin the toadstool mimicking her words over and over making the second year laugh quietly.

Tia understood Herbology, but honestly didn't comprehend why anyone would want a talking toadstool. Wasn't it better to talk to creatures than plants? But she guessed some people maybe were more of a fan of the green life. So they were repotting the toadstools to try and restore them. Simple enough.

Pulling on her gloves, the fourth year made a face at the next task. At least she had on gloves. Couldn't she just pour the soil into the pot though instead of using her hands to add fresh soil? Sighing, she patted the fresh soil lightly and then lifted her sick toadstool from the old pot and into the new soil. "There, there," she whispered to the plant. Ugh. Now she was talking to plants. "Aguamenti" she cast, watching as water trickled from the end of her wand onto the plant. What else did she need now? Oh right.... Mooncalf solution.

One drop. Two drops. Three drops. Four ... oops, there's a fifth drop.

Now just patience. The Fourth year rested her fingertips lightly on the edge of her table spot as she watched and waited ... Hopefully she didn't drown the poor thing in mooncalf solution ... Biting her lip nervously, she swallowed and then suddenly, the plant started brightening up.

"Hi?" Tia asked tentatively. What was she supposed to say to a talking toadstool anyway? It turned out, not much, since after her greeting, the plant started yapping and whining.

Raising her hand high in the air; "Uh Professor? How do we make it stop? Can the silencing charm work?"

So now it was time to add the solution. Or was it the water first? Hmm. Maybe he should have written them down after all. Eh. Next time maybe.

Casually the sixth-year started scanning the area around him looking for someone to copy. He found a couple and waited to see what were they going to do first. And that wasn't cheating. Nope, not at all. Aand it was water first. He totally knew that, just wanted to make sure.

Pulling out his wand, the Slytherin waved it and muttered, "Aguamenti,". Water squirted out of the end of his wand. He waited a few moments before casting Finite ending the spell. Not time for the mooncalf solution.

Dante set the wand aside and reached for the bottle. Carefully he uncapped it and tilted it. One drop.... two drops.... three drops. That was about it.

After capping the bottle again, he turned his attention to the toadstool. It looked totally better but how was he gonna know if it worked. He obviously had to say something. "So," Pause. So. It repeated. Dante rolled his eyes, "Good it worked," he said. Good it worked. Now that was irritating. Though, it did remind him a bit of his little brother who liked to play this game of imitating.

Hughbert liked how direct this Professor was. He seemed to be interested in getting the information out and then let them to their work, which he admired. Hugh was not a focused enough kind of person to really indulge in professors who went on and on and on about their subject. It was a particular brand of teaching that he could not subscribe to, yo. He just didn't learn that way.

Too swept up in big ideas.

But this, this he could do. So he grabbed a toadstool and potted it. There was no hesitation, no nothing as he looked at the shriveled up old mess that was the toadstool. Hugh just wanted to get the project done.

Then he drew his wand and whispered, "Aguamenti." He watered it for a brief moment before uttering, "Finite."

Perfect. No hiccups. Now it was............mooncalf time, right?

But sadly no.

Now the fun dirty part. Dante filled the pot thing fill to the brim with soil. That thing was never starve on Dante's watch. Well maybe if he forgets. This was not the most interesting of things Dante has ever done. Not even top 10. Sorry.

Put the pot was full and that is what counts. Only thing left was water, toadstool, and mooncalf.

Now the interesting part. He did not know the water spell. So....

Yeah.

"Professor M. I need some help. I don't the water spell....Aquamenti or whatever it is"
Time to test out the mimicry skills of the talking toadstool. Cutty felt silly speaking down into it, so he took it around the room on sort of a mini roadshow. That was when he noticed Barrington hadn't gotten too far in his progress. "Barrington, put yer toadstool in the pot and I'll walk yer through the rest." He somehow made this sound as if Dante were missing out. And he sort of was. Who was up for teaching the toadstools stupid long words and inappropriate-for-their-species sentences later?

"I'll walk yer through the rest!" Repeated the squeaky little toadstool Cutty had been carrying, going so far as to mimic his Northerly way of speaking.

Mooncalf solution for his toadstool.

Technically not his toadstool, but the schools. Unimportant distinction in the grand scheme of things. Except for Hughbert, yo. He always liked to be annoyingly accurate when it came to everything.

He took the solution, uncapped it and tilted it to the left to let a few drops fall out onto the fungus. While he waited for it to return to the land of the living he capped it and waited.

And waited some more before the toadstool regained a hue (heh) that resembled a living fungus and not a dead one. Then he EYED it. He wasn't going to say a thing. Repetition was taxing.

Okay, had to water it. Toby paused a moment, peering around in search for his wand. He really was so awful about misplacing that thing. But then, aha... hidden away... in his pocket. Merlin only knew why; he had a holster for keeping it in but apparently, nope, it liked to chill out in his pocket instead.

Toby pointed his wand at his own replanted toadstool in the soil and cast the spell. "Aguamenti." A steady stream of water trickled out onto the soil and toadstool and soon the soil inside was nice and damp and good to go. Which meant there was only one more step.

He set his wand down now and reached for some of the Mooncalf Solution that waited in the middle of the table. Just as he'd watched Millard do, Toby dropped out a few drops of the solution, waiting to see (and hear) any changes. It was kinda tricky, as other kids had already got their Toadstools 'talking', so Toby had to lean in close after each drop to work out if there was any sort of progress.

After the fourth drop, Toby heard it. A strange sound, like a mixture of squeeing and cooing, was emitted from the toadstool, and Toby couldn't help but smile.

"Cool," he said, before replacing the dropper to the Mooncalf Solution, and the Solution to the middle of the table. Even as he did so, he heard the squeak out a little 'coooool', mimicking the way Toby had drawn out the word.

Nice. So... success?

Maybe he should just forget about it and not do it. It was an option you know. But before he could even think about killing of his toadstool in the most humane like way. Or would it be most toadstool like way. Interesting. He heard his name....Oh, Cutty was going to help him. The first question you ask is why. But then Dante needed the help and at least he knew him.

Kind of.

"Okay. Thanks Cutty"

Dante put his toadstool in the soil and had sure it was replanted. No mistakes. Now onto the part he did not know.

"Thanks Cutty, thanks Cutty." Came the annoying little echo from the older Slyths pot.

The shriveled and poorly thing Dante had replanted was looking better already in Cutty's opinion. It was packed in and secure. Maybe Barrington had strong hands. He'd be a good shake down officer for debtors who borrowed too much credit for their sweets habits. Someone who could handle the lit'luns.

Cutty pulled himself from the private reverie the thought of such a thing had brought him and went back to helping Dante. "Good job. Right. Then, yer going to give it soom water. Wave yer wand slightly and say 'Aguamenti'." Should he have explained that it was conjuring?

Archie was only happy to help with the water spell. He smiled and made his way over to the boy, only another student appeared to have gotten there first. That was fine, too. "I can see Mr Mordaunt is doing a great job at teaching the spell. If you need any more help then call me over again." He nodded.

Lux had no idea and she was curious so she raised her hand. "Are there boy and girl toadstools? Or are they all the same and non-gendered?" Maybe her question was dumb, but you never know when information could come in handy!
Interesting question. "Most plants have a mixture of male and female parts rather than having its own particular gender. Almost impossible to tell from just looking at them. Great question." Archie smiled.

This student was really on the ball! "Absolutely. We will be moving onto the silencing charm in a moment!" He raised his voice for the last bit, as it was getting pretty loud in here. Annoying, too.


----

As the noise in the room was making itself noticed, Archie decided that it was best to move on to the next part of the lesson. The students that were still restoring their toadstools still had plenty of time to catch up. "Great job, everyone!" He was SO, so pleased. Really. "By the sound of it, looks like most of you have successfully restored your Talking Toadstools. If you're still in the process, feel free to continue." Nod, nod. Now... Archie got out his wand for the next part.

"As Miss Mancini has just mentioned, we will be using the silencing charm to shut these toadstools up. Not only for our ears, but for them, too. Talking Toadstools do not appreciate the company of each other and tend to grow independently." Who could blame them???? "For anyone who hasn't learned the silencing charm before, listen up." He paused, "and your charms professor can thank me later." Wink, wink.

"The incantation is Silencio. Pronounced si-LEN-see-oh." Very French sounding, yes. "And is performed with a very simple jab movement of the wand." Archie demonstrated the movement. "I'll write that on the blackboard, but go ahead and try silencing those toadstools. Once you have finished, please use one of the sticker labels and pop your name onto the pot of your toadstool, and then take it to Greenhouse 2. Just leave them on the main desk before returning here". He would obviously move them to appropriate and separate places after class had been dismissed. "Hands up if you need me." He turned and chalked the silencing charm information underneath what was previously written.


ooc: Plenty of time to catch up on the mini activity if you're behind. This main activity requires a minimum of three posts for full credit. Practising the spell, performing the spell, labelling and moving to greenhouse two. Post more if you wish to.

Finally they could quiet these talking toadstools. Don't get the puffer wrong I mean they do like semi adorable but the noise was really getting to him. He was trying to polite and not cover his ears but he would if he could. He heard they were going to practice the silencio charm. Sounds simple enough. He got his wand out of his pocket and saw how to pronounce the charm on the board.

He practiced saying to himself first..."si-LEN-see-oh......si-LEN-see-oh.....si-LEN-see-oh.......si-LEN-see-oh.......si-LEN-see-oh.......si-LEN-see-oh.......si-LEN-see-oh..." a couple of times. Once he got the hang of it, he practice air jabbing the plant. He felt like he was using a sword or something. Once he got that down it was time to put this spell to the test.


Was the toadstool prepared? Well toadstool prepare to meet your enemy now.

UGHHH.

It was so hard for Lux to make out what the Professor was saying because the toadstools wouldn't stop their whiney chatter. Even though she had remained silent thus far, hers had picked up a chorus of "Great question. Great question. Great question."

There was something else she wanted to ask, but it was too hard to focus; it would have to wait for later. They were moving on, and the silencing spell sounded amazing right now because it sucked not being able to think properly.

The toadstools were kinda cute though.

She had already practiced this spell, but a refresher was never a bad idea. "Si-LEN-see-oh... Si-LEN-see-oh... Si-LEN-see-oh..." Jab jab at the toadstool with her wand.

Scribble, scribble, scribble. More notes to take, more spells to learn. Janelle felt like she had learned about a billion spells since school started. how would she ever keep them straight? Well now she had a new one to add to the list. Although this one could prove to be quite useful. Janelle supposed that a room full of Talking Toadstools would not be a good thing.

Once Janelle had finished her notes, it was time to practice the new spell. as always, she started with the incantation. "Si-len-see-oh, Si-len-si-oh, Silencio". That one wasn't too bad, as incantations go.

Retrieving her wand, Janelle prepared to practice the associated movement. Well, that didn't seem to hard either........just a jab. So she gave her wand a jab three times and figured that was enough of that. It was time to silence her toadstool. Janelle was a teeny bit sad about that. She did want to hear him talk a little more. Oh well.

Toby had one eye closed in a sort of squint of irritation. The toadstools probably wouldn't be too loud, if it was just one or two for a very short time. But... there were loads. He was trying very hard not to feel annoyed or worked up from the noise, but... wow. WOW. His own toadstool was still squeaking out 'coooool, cooooooool' from time to time, and Toby was about to say something else, another word or phrase for it to latch onto, when Millard got everyone's attention again.

He couldn't remember if he'd ever tried the Silencing Charm before, which didn't necessarily mean he'd not already learnt it. Toby was the master of forgetting, well... everything, but it was a part of life he'd already come to terms with.

"Si-LEN-see-oh," the Hufflepuff repeated, reading it off the board and twirling his wand between his fingers like a magical baton. "Silencio. Silencio." Yup yup yup. Had that part covered. As for the wand movement, Toby twirled his wand a little more until it he was able to hold it properly for spell casting. He jabbed it at nowhere in particular, jab, jab, jab, and added another, "Silencio," but without actually attempting the spell yet. Just throwing it all together, y'know.

That was enough practice though. Time to shut the 'coooooool' toadstool up a little bit.

Janelle had practiced the spell and now she was ready to try it out on her toadstool. First though, she wanted to hear him talk one more time. "I'm going to make you quiet now. You'll be OK." Then she heard the toadstool say, "be OK". Janelle smiled at little Toady and raised her wand. Giving it a jab in the toadstool' direction, Janelle said, "Silencio".

Now she had to find out whether or not her spell was effective. "Toady, can you talk to me?" Nothing. "Toady, I can't hear you." Again, nothing. "Well I guess it worked", she said to her toadstool. Having finished with the spell, Janelle went in search of a sticker. She wouldn't want her Toady to get mixed up with some random toadstool.

LOL. Behind again.

LOOOOOOOOOOL.

Oh man. He was really getting the hang of this procrastination thing, wasn't he? Whereas before, he only tried to keep it to homework, now it was seeping into his class work status and he could almost feel a mild sense of panic settling in.

And there was a voice in his head telling him off which sounded a lot like his mum's.

Yeah. Right. Whatever. Just like he'd caught up in time during his other lessons, he was gonna catch up on this one as well. So, grabbing himself a pot, Grayson started filling it up with soil. Only some of it needed to go in, didn't it? Not too much. He hasn't really been paying much attention -- was that obvious? -- but he had enough sense to know just how much soil this particular pot needed.

Smart, wasn't he? Grayson certainly thought so.

Norah grinned at the ickle toadstool as she picked up her wand. "Aguamenti!" She made sure not to drown it or anything, for obvious reasons, and put her wand back down on the table once it was all hydrated 'n stuff. But it was still looking wilty. Whyyy? Oh. The moon stuff!

The third year reached over and plucked the bottle of Mooncalf Solution from the center of the table before positioning the dropper over the toadstool. DRIPDRIPDRIP Norah grinned as the toadstool perked up a little, and leaned down to put her ear alll close just in case it was going to say something. She let out a giggle as the plant let out a high pitched SQUUUEAK, and made a squeaky sound back. The toadstool squeaked again, and so did Norah. It was like a PARROT but a PLANT at the SAME TIME. "Hiiii toady stool" Squeak. "I'm Norah. Norah Norah Norah" The toadstool made a sound that sounded something like her name, and the Hufflepuff BEAMED at it. It was so smart! Would it be weird if she hugged the pot? Whatever. She was hugging the pot.

She had to SILENCE it? But it just said her NAME almost. They were meant to be best friends, it was OBVIOUS. Norah made a few appropriately pouty faces before reluctantly picking her wand up again. "Silencio!" she jabbed her wand in the toadstool's direction, which responded with a high pitched squeal. Well, THAT obviously didn't work. Oops?

So they were going to revive these little...things. Beverly reached into her back and slipped her gloves on. A new pot, water and mooncalf solution would make it better? If only it worked in real life, ha!

Shooting Valentina a look, just to make sure she didn't set the plant on fire instead, Beverly reached for said pot and solution. She then proceeded to mimic Professor Millard as she filled the base of the pot with soil, smoothing it out a bit for the toadstool to settle in. She wasn't completely cold hearted. It was thawing...slowly.

curly haired prefect - "sometimes I get angry!" - 30/90 - *chicken emoji* - probably @ Disney - I speak dog

Was that all they were doing today? Shutting them up and then that was that? That was a bit of a let down...Caleb was hoping they were going to create a toadstool choir or something fun like that! Also, despite knowing what the incantation was for the Silencing Charm, he had never actually USED it. Probably best to practice first.

"Silencio. Si-LEN-see-oh. Silencio," he said, practicing it and practicing the jab movement with his wand. That wasn't TOO difficult.
