DADA Lesson 1 - Introduction

[Milificent Bergstrom]

Kris rubbed his eye and grumbled. "Bloody polterguiest" He mumbled to himself and kept his head down, not wanting to look at the professor. He didn't know why but this professor set him at unease, he would have to ask Milli about it later he figured.

[Sami Daven]

Sami rubbed her eye, "That sounds great Professor."

She was practically blinded in that eye because of the poke.

[Jessica Adams]

Artemis slouched in her chair and stared forward. Now that the poltergeist (however you spell it) was gone, she was rather bored. She nodded at the professor's words, wondering who the 'select few' would be. It probably wouldn't be her. She was never chosen for things, got in too much trouble.

[Hermione Granger]

((Don't want Ginny to get in trouble for being late to D.A.D.A., seeing as it's supposed to be her best subject, so I'll pretend she was here the whole time))

BIC: Ginny had rolled her eyes at Peeves as he entered the classroom, but decided that the best thing to do was just to ignore him. He had no vendetta against her and she'd like to keep it that way. Earlier, she had written her entry, along with all the other students.

Lesson One
How much do you already know about DADA?: I can sucessfully use practical spells such as the shield charm, patronous charm, boggart-ridding spell, expelliarmus and other defensive spells that have been taught to me over the years. Admittedly, I am slightly lacking in theoretical knowledge of spells, compared to practical.

Satisfied with what she had written, she had placed her quill down and waited for Peeves to leave the room so the lesson could begin. She had heard what Evan said about boggarts, but wasn't particularly attentive seeing as he had learned the "Riddikulus" spell in the D.A. two years ago. She sighed and began doodling randomly on a spare parchment from her bag.

[Cynthia Veneficus]

Summer's face bore one of amusement as she watched the polterguiest in action. She nodded at the teacher's word, glad that this subject was going to be far more interesting then Potions. She smirked at the "seperate group" that the teacher may be organising, and knew that she was going to be having a lot of fun in these lessons.

[[Lol, for the "ministry approved" lesson, Jack could be there to supervise it Was going to say Lizzie/Deity but Jack seems like a way better option =P Oh and yeah sure you were there Mia Always there...]]

[Lana Lee]

Lana was happy to hear that there would be a separate group. For once a teacher is going to step outside the Ministry's control and teach what is necessary. She raised her hand.
"Professor, what would we have to do to be selected for the group," she asked.
She was going to do whatever it takes to get in that group.

[Mnemosyne Malfoy]

Melpomene walked into the Defence Classroom and quickly walked up to professor "Sorry for being Late Professor, We ran into a bit of a poltergist Problem and that is the second time today, it's getting a bit annoying really." With that she turned to look for a seat for her and her sister.

[Kristoff Bergstrom]

Kris looked up at the new Gryffindor girl's as they entered the classroom. He winced at hearing they had a run in with Peeves, bloody menace he was. His eyes landed on the one with the curlier hair and noticed how lovely she was. True they were twins but there was something he liked about her more than her sister. Blushing slightly he turned back to the front of the class and tried to pay attention to the professor.

[Asher Seagle]

Asher was scribbling on his notebook when he saw Kris's face blush. A smirk formed on his face. Well well well... What have we here? He looked to see where Kris's eyes were directed and Asher's head moved to one of the Gryffindor girls that had just entered. He shook his head in amusement and went back to work, but not without clearing his throat slightly as if to give Kris a warning that his blush had been notice.

[Kristoff Bergstrom]

Kris heard Asher clear his throat but didn't need to look at him to know that his blush had been noticed. 'great' he groaned inwardly and put his head in his hands. He just hoped the girl had not noticed his blush or his glancing at her, or if she did that she did not think of him as a freak.

[Evan Brennan]

((Fine... Ginny shall have been there. We'll just say no one seemed to care about her enough to notice her, lol, j/k. ))

Professor, what would we have to do to be selected for the group?

Evan turned his head to see who asked that and found himself looking at a Slytherin with a determined look featured on her face. No surprises there. He thought for a moment and then spoke, "I'll be looking to those who seem to show an apititude for the type of magic I'm going to teach. And of course I'd want to trust the students too."

He paused for a second and then a smirk formed on his face. "One way for me not to like you is showing up late which I see two more students have done." Evan glanced over to the two newer students; he generally would not have called them out like that, but since they were Gryffindors, he would do so. He didn't know they were Malfoys though or else he would had more respect. "And what are your names?" he questioned simply.

[Jessica Adams]

Jessica nodded to the two new gryffindor girls, she was glad to have more people in her house. It was getting better.

Artemis grinned when they mentioned Peeves but noticed Kris' anger but not the blush. Apparently he didn't like Peeves, Best avoid him... probably won't like me either.

[Mnemosyne Malfoy]

"I'm Mnemosyne Malfoy, but you can call me Syne. People tend to have a problem pronouncing my full name. This is my Sister Melpomene, or Mel for short." Mnemosyne noticed the cute boy look at her then blush and made a note to find out his name. Spotting two seats near the back of the class 'there at the backshe thought to Mel and headed to the back of the class. Pulling out a notebook and quill she quickly did her journal assignment and hoped to not draw the professors attention again.

Mel noticed the exchange between her sister and the cute boy and bit back a smile. She followed her sister to the back of the classroom and took her seat. She pulled out her notebook and quill and after a moments thought wrote out her journal assignment. When she was finished she eyed the professor warily, he obviously hadn't recieved their uncle's owl yet or he wouldn't be looking so confused at having two Gryffindor Malfoy's

[Kristoff Bergstrom]

Kris glanced around the room, hoping to see the girl again. He spotted her and her sister at the back of the class. 'Pity.' He thought sadly. He had hoped that she would find a seat closer so he could introduce himself, oh well it would now have to wait for after class. He turned back around and listened to the professor.

[Lana Lee]

Lana smiled, knowing that she was more than capable of being selected. But, when the professor called out on the two late Gryffindor, Lana smirked. There was nothing more fun than picking on Gryffindor, especially when it comes from a professor.
