Azura entered the Transfiguration classroom and smiled over at the Professor. "Hello Professor Riveroll, how are you today?" She asked as her purple eyes flicked to the board and then down to the desk.

"Thank you for the brownies. " She said with a smile as she took one and then looked around the room..

Where would she usually not sit? Back and to the right it was! She headed for her seat and sat down.. eating her brownie carefully as she looked around.

"Good morning Professor Riveroll," said Kitty with a smile as she walked into the Transfiguration classroom and made her way over to the front of the lesson where she usually sat. "Thank you for the brownies," she said, taking one of politeness. She sat down at her usual spot in the front and to the left, and waved at Azura. Why was she sitting in that chair?

Then the board caught her attention. "Oh!" She sprang from her chair, almost tripping over her robes as she did so. "Sorry Professor, I didn't read the sign. I'll sit in the middle since I never sit there." So she made her way over to the middle and sat down.

Whew!

Kimi entered the classroom and said "Good day Professor Rivoroll, thank you for the brownies" It was lucky that Kimi had read the sign and took a seat in the middle of the classroom away from his usual seat at the front

Super. A class that was going to help with wand work. Aoife enjoyed pretty much all of her classes at Hogwarts, apart from flying, but Transfiguration was particularly FUN. Her face lit up even more at the brownies that were on offer, and she skipped on over to pick one up before looking around for a seat.

Sit somewhere she wouldn't normally sit? So, at the back? Not gonna happen! Aoife perched herself close to the front, but on the sidelines. Not the best view but she'd make it work. "Hello, professor. Yummy brownies." She commented after demolishing the brownie after about three bites. Aoife rubbed at her lips just to make sure there was no excess chocolate, before pulling out her wand and resting it very neatly in front of her.

Henry generally like Transfiguration as it was one of those classes that was mostly practical. He did like using magic and learning new spells, and he wasn't half bad with spells that were at his grade level at least. So hopefully it wasn't a theory-only lesson today.

As he entered the classroom, the fifteen year old first noted the professor, then the brownies, and then the notes on the board. "Good morning, Professor," he grinned as he helped himself to a brownie. "Thanks for the snack!"

Sit in an area he wouldn't normally sit? That was a tough one. If the seat wasn't already assigned to him, Henry often chose different seats depending on where he felt like sitting. Sometimes he sat by the window, sometimes front and center, and almost always by one of his friends. He turned to take a look at the set up. Closest to the door - he didn't usually choose that seat, and that was today's choice.

Kat headed into the transfiguration classroom. It was a good day. A Monday and a Monday morning at that but still good. She had improved amazingly in this subject this term and it made her very proud of herself.

"Good morning, Professor Riverroll." She smiled as she walked past to her seat. But stopped just before her nose caught sniff of the brownies on the professors desk. She took a few steps back to get a brownie. 'Thank you." The third year smiled brightly.

As she headed to desk she looked around for a place to seat. She seen Az and give her a little wave. She had decided that she was done being upset over what happened between her best friend and the Ravenclaw. So with this though and a the professors sit where you normally wouldn't sit request. The Hufflepuff took a seat next to the Ravenclaw girl. "Hell Az. Ready for the lesson to start?" She also seen Kimi and Henry, who both got waves as well.

The brownies looked SO good, but all the processed sugar was starting to wreak havoc on this poor baby Slytherin. She sighed over the plate, gave the Professor a bitterly sad look, and then took a seat near her old buddy Henry. He got a broad wink and a grin.

"Good day, Professor. Did you bake for us? That's so kind of you." And good day, old buddy Henry.

OH, Brownies! Juno immediately grabbed one upon entering the classroom. "Hello and Thank you, Professor!" She said with a smile and a wave. So they had to sit somewhere they wouldn't normally sit....usually she sat as close to the front as possible. So that would mean today she would have to sit in the back.

Juno quickly found an open seat in the back left side of the room. She sat her brownie on the desk, then pulled out everything she would possibly need for today's lesson. This had to be a good one...there were brownies.

Timidly stepping into the classroom, Paige opted not to take a brownie - although did find it kind of the professor to provide for them. This subject offered its own set of distractions without having the addition of baked goods - chances were that the sticky sweet residue from the brownie lingering on her fingers would cause some sort of ridiculous repercussions to her anxious spellcasting.

"Good day, professor," Paige greeted, offering the woman a sheepish smile as her blue eyes drifted to the instructions on the board.

............somewhere she wouldn't usually sit? Merlin why?

Feeling even smaller, the seventh year made her way towards a cluster of desks in the middle of the room and towards the front.

Ug.

Monday morning and they had transfiguration class. Thankfully not too early, but still, breakfast had happened before making sure she had all her books and supplies for the lesson. Cassie caught the sound of classical music coming from the classroom as she approached, causing a brief smile. That and the fact that there didn’t seem to be any assigned seats. She liked having the choice more.

“Good Morning, Professor,” she greeted the woman happily. Accepting a brownie for a mid-morning snack, she added, “Thanks for the brownies,” before moving to take a seat in one of the quartets of seats in the back of the classroom. The Ravenclaw tended to be seated near the front so this was a change of pace. And it wasn’t like she couldn’t still see and hear everything.

Bella thought she was going to be late as it got closer to ten o'clock. She was nearly out of breath from running as she reached the door and walked into the Transfiguration classroom. I made it.

"Good morning Professor." Bella greeted with a polite smile, before turning to read the instructions on the chalkboard. Yay! There were no assigned seats today; therefore, she could sit where ever she liked, but it had to be somewhere she didn’t usually sit. Hmm... the back. She grabbed one of the delicious looking brownie and walked over to empty desk towards the back to sit down.

Azura was still eating her brownie when more people started to arrive and she waved at Kitty her prefect as well as Henry and Paige But what surprised her the most was the fact that Kat was coming to sit down next to her..

*blink**blink blink blink*

Azura's purple eyes were blinking a bit.. she was the last person she thought Kat would sit by.. due to what had went down between her and Brady.. Azura was just under the impression that everyone in Brady's circle hated her..

It wasn't a thought she liked and yes she lost sleep over it but..

She sent a warm smile to the blonde and she nodded "Hey Kat, and I am actually, what about you?" She asked with a grin. "Have you had any of the brownie yet? It's pretty good. "

Yeah small talk.. she couldn't exactly say 'Hey I'm sorry I broke your best friends heart, I still feel awful about it..' now could she?

Quietly, Jace made his way to his Transfiguration class, and gave Professor Riveroll a nice bow of his head. "Goodmorning, Sensei." And...brownies? The Ravenclaw took two pieces with him and bowed again to her to say his thanks.

And...what about this weird sitting arrangement? Clustered and...what?

Jace glanced at the very back of the room, and slowly made his way there. Azura was already with a group, so the Ravenclaw instead sat on an empty chair at the very back...and at the very corner.

UGH. He hated this.

Stepping into the room, Hadleigh smiled warmly at the professor. "Good morning, professor. Hello everyone," she greeted making sure no one was left out. It was best to always include everyone if she could all at once.

Seeking out the board had become something normal to her when she first entered a room. Lately the professors liked to leave messages on them. Today wasn't any different it seemed. What was this, sit somewhere she wouldn't normally sit? Um well alright then. Where wouldn't she usually sit? Probably in the back...hmm. Finding an empty seat way in the back Hady slipped down into the chair grinning when she realized who she had just sat with. "Hello Jace, mind if I seat near you?" She didn't think he would but she would make sure. The last lesson they had worked together in they had worked together nicely.

Noelle was excited for Transfiguration. She headed to class and took a look at the board once she entered. Sit somewhere you normally wouldn't sit. Hmm... okay..

Taking a brownie, she observed the room... trying to determine where she normally wouldn't sit. Of course, her first option would have been to sit next to her best friend, Azura or her big sis Hady. But the board said sit somewhere you normally wouldn't.

She sat towards the front or the middle usually so she headed for the back. Sitting beside, Bella. "Well hello"

Sit somewhere they usually didn't? Was she taking a different potion? Nat just looked at the writing and glanced at the Professor. "Hello" giving a small smile as she turned to look around the room. What did it really matter where they sat to be honest. Wasn't class just class? She would just find a seat as usual if it was where she usually sat so be it.

Setting her bag on the floor Nat pulled out her parchment and quill. Setting these things on her desk she then grabbed her book before turning to see who she sat down next to. "Hello Henry, how are you?"

It was someone who she knew and a place she had sat at some point before, but she was ready to start when the professor was.

Miranda skipped her way to her transfiguration lesson with an extra dash of pep today... Things at school were going well and socially too.. Not that her social life was much to talk about... But still life was good and this trickled into her mood..

" Good morning, Professor Riveroll... Great day isn't it..? ", she said brightly as she passed by and took her usual seat.. Looking around the class as she put her bag down and took from it her textbook and paper and quill and placed them on her desk...

Oh.. she spotted a few of her friends and gave them an enthusiastic wave...

Jace already devoured his first brownie and held out his hand in search of a napkin. He forgot how messy brownies could be, and hated the feeling of having an oily, chocolate stained hand. The Ravenclaw's mood started to slowly spiral downwards when a familiar voice called him out.

Jace looked up with his sticky hand in front of him, and grinned at Hady. "Hi!" The younger student then waved a chocolate-stained hand at her and scooted further to his right to make more room for the Head Girl. "I don't mind of course." he said, flushing a bit because of the state of his hand.

Spare parchment, spare parchment. Jace hurriedly searched for one in his bag, so he could finally wipe his dirty hand. Anything but his robe, shirt, or trousers.

As he waited for class to begin, Henry did not rush to get out his class materials. Instead, he made use of that time to eat his brownie. And it was a pretty good brownie actually, nice and chocolatey. He did wonder if Professor Riveroll made them herself too, when he heard Katy ask her that as she took the seat next to him.

"Hey, Katy," he grinned back at her as he continued eating his snack. "No brownie for you?" He'd certainly recommend them, they were that good.

Henry glanced up again as he heard his name. "Hi, Nat," he smiled at the older girl. "Doing well, how about you?" He couldn't complain at lease. And where was her brownie? What was with these girls and their turning down free food? They didn't know what they were missing.

"Do you know Katy?" He figured he might as well ask since they were all sitting together, but even though he was trying to be polite, he felt a little dumb right after he asked. Even if they were a few years apart, they were in the same house so they probably did know each other.

Wait.... what? She was supposed to sit somewhere new? But why? Char's first choice was always the middle to be in the middle of the action, or the front to really be involved in what was going on, sooooo.... that meant the back?

Back it was!

"Hi professor!" And noooo she didn't want a brownie. Char skipped to the back of the room, found a spot, and arranged herself in it.

Carl followed the sound of classical music down the corridor happily. Transfiguration was his favorite class and he was excited for the lesson. He entered the classroom and smiled at Professor Riveroll. "Good morning, Professor!" He said, then looked around the room. Hmm, no seating assignments? His blue eyes wandered over to the chalkboard where they were instructed to sit somewhere where they wouldn't usually sit.

Aaand there was a plate of brownies for them too! The Hufflepuff found this strange since the class rules said eating was not allowed, but still took one nevertheless. He paused briefly at his usual seat at the front, then moved on to the back left side. He sat down at a desk next to Juno, his House Prefect. "Hey, Juno! How are you doing?" He said brightly, before taking a bite of his brownie.

The hour certainly didn’t bother her. 10 am wasn’t early, exactly. It had given Brooklyn time to herself, and even though she still missed certain professors, nor was she an Animagus like Hady, it wasn’t as if it was difficult to get her to Transfiguration lessons. She’d walked up to the classroom a few minutes before the lesson was supposed to begin, just so she wouldn’t ruin her leisurely morning by rushing, and walked in with her usual demeanor. Namely, giving the people who deserved it greetings, even if they were generally nonverbal, and just acknowledging the others with a glance. Aside from the professor, of course.

“Good morning, Professor Riveroll,” she said, giving the woman a polite smile and declining the brownies on the plate. Not because she declined the offer, just because she still wasn’t too fond of chocolate. The instruction on the board received the slightest raised eyebrow though, as she wondered what would have happened if someone felt the only area of the classroom they’d never sat in was the professor’s desk. As it was, she just chose a random location, seeing as she hadn’t really picked a specific area to always sit in during this subject. It wasn’t Potions, after all.

May her successes be many today, and her stress be zero. Please.

... but with this being Transfiguration, Olivia was not at all confident, even though she had improved somewhat over the course of the year. At least, she'd been able to start performing First Year Transfiguration spells with some continuous success. Even a few Second Year ones...

Parking beside Charlotte in the back of the room, because they were apparently meant to sit someplace new, she nudged her fellow blonde. "Hey."

"Hi Liv!" Charlotte brightened even more, which WAS possible. It had been ages since she'd sat with her younger friend. See, professor? Totally doing what was told on the board!

She lowered her voice to a whisper though. "Its going to be so hard to pay attention from back here." Confession for you, Olivia Phillips!
