Who is he?
"He's Professor Brennan's brother," Lana whispered back. "He works for the ministry and is watching the lesson." She turned to face front and tried her best to pay attention. She wanted to beat the boggart on her first try and thought that would be the best way to get the professor's attentin.

Asher was looking out the window, trying to think what his boggart would be. He didn't really like clowns or spiders and such, but he couldn't think of something he truly feared above all others. And if they were gonna have to face a boggart, he didn't want to make a fool of himself in front of everybody by not knowing how to make his boggart funny.
((Ahh... can't think of something that Asher would fear...))

((lol, same. Spiders is good Ron Weasley!!)) Summer nodded, "Ahh." she merely said as she wondered how on earth could two brothers be so distinctively different. Shrugging it off, she joined Lana in paying attention to the Professor as she wanted to handle this boggart that they were going up against, in order to secure her position for the seperate group.

Damien entered the DADA classroom, feeling quite stupid at his tardiness. He glanced over at Lana for a brief moment and remembered her words that pretty much explained he wasn't supposed to give any sign of knowing her in public. Therefore, he sat in the back of the class and did his journal topic.
Evan watched a Gryffindor enter the room tardy and was about to comment on it, when he realized that Jack could easily get off on him for showing a disregard for the Gryffindors. He ended up ignoring the boy and continued on with his lesson.
Jack was stunned to see that Evan didn't say anything to the boy that was tardy. Evan was generally very open with his dislike of Gryffindors, yet he didn't say anything about this one. He's just making one big act, thought Jack.
"So yes, that's correct, Artemis," nodded Evan. "No one can see a boggart, because by the time they get a good luck, it's already transformed into someone's worst fear." He paused and said, "Now there's a key to defeating a boggart. It involves laughter and the incantation of the spell. What's the spell?"

"Riddikulus." Sami said, she actually knew that one. "You think of the funniest thing you can and then say it. And the boggart turns into it."

Lana saw Damien enter in the classroom, late nonetheless. But, she kept her head forward and made it her intent on pretending not seeing him. She didn't want him to wave at her or show some kind of recognition if they made eye contact or something. She thought she would get her mind off of it by thinking how to make a barking dog funny.

Ginny sighed, lamenting the fact that she had already learned all this stuff in the D.A 3 years ago, as well as in class. But then again, the rest of the students here were younger than her and needed to know this stuff as well. She played with her quill, standing it up on its tip and watching it fall when she let it go.
OOC: Anyone know what Ginny's fear can be? Lol I personally have no idea what to write... She's supposed to be good at this stuff and since they learn it in 3rd year I'm just gonna say she already learned it... yeah... But I still don't know what fear she should have...

IC: Jasper listened, bored.

((I always thought the bigger question was if they could burp... I dunno. Jasper could just laugh inside or something... And I have no clue what Ginny's patronus would be. Nor do I have a clue for any of my characters either, lol.))
Evan nodded. "Riddikulus is indeed the correct spell. Of course, like Ms. Daven said, the spell involves more than just the incantation. You have to think of a funny thought as well. It's quite comparable to the Patronus charm in that matter, but that's beside the point. We're going on to the practical part of our lesson."
Evan waved his wand at a corner of the room where there was a curtain. The curtain flew up and revealed an old wardrobe that looked like it could use a good paint job. Every now and then, the wardrobe would rattle as if ready to fall over; obviously this was because of the boggart. "Now we'll be facing the boggart. If you're too afraid to face it, then I hope you're happy with a failing grade for class today. Now go on and get in line..." Evan looked around and waited for the students to start moving. They weren't. "We don't need to wait for the butterflies to pass, get in line." Evan rolled his eyes at the lack of obedience coming out of the students.
Jack grinned at this since he could see Evan getting tired of the students. "Seeing as Ginny Weasley has already learned this bit of magic from what I presume, she should probably be doing something more productive," suggested Jack.
Evan would have loved to say a snide remark but refrained from doing so. He turned to Ginny and said, "That's true. I doubt you need to do this, so you don't have to perform the spell if you don't want to. However if anyone needs help, please do so for them."
((There. Happy, Amelia? Lol))

OOC: What's Jasper gonna do? He'll just say it on the inside... poor guy... he can go after Ginny. But how'll he say that... oh well. I'm just going to say mutes CAN laugh and all that good stuff... because they're cool.
IC: Jasper blinked. If he had to go, he might as well go after the red head. Get it over with. After the red head went. He stood up, and walked to the front of the class. Though he made sure it didn't look like he wanted to go first.

((OOC: Yay, thanks Riley! Only it seems OOC of her to turn down the chance to do practical, since it's her favourite subject, lol. So yeah, Ginny will perform the spell anyway so she can show that she can. Now I need to think of what her fear could be... Lol don't make her first, I still need to think of what her fear could be... Maybe seeing her family dead? Or her mother killed by Voldemort? Lol no one has any idea whatsoever?))
BIC: Ginny smiled as the man at the back of the room said that she didn't have to do the spell. Though, it seemed that Evan would have liked for her to cast the spell anyway. She didn't particularly want to make the teacher mad, so she decided to go along with it anyway. "Thank you sir," she said to Jack, smiling at him greatfully before turning back to Evan, "But if you'd like me to do the spell as well as helping others, I will."

((Probably her dead mother. Or like siblings or something. I'm guessing it's gonna be like Mrs Weasley's in the 5th book (I think... yeah...). Her husband, the children and Harry. Haha, Summer's probably going for her brothers (who magically appeared cause I forgot to write about them in her profile!! I KNEW I forgot something!!) and then Asher, maybe lol)) Summer nodded, and got up to go into the line. She wondered what was funny to her. Most of her funny memoirs were linked to the bad ones, and this was one of the reasons that she wasn't too good with the patronus charm either. Every happy memoir of hers, clung on to a darkened and saddened one after it. She thought about her youngest brother when he was only 1, such a doofus, who made her smile at the thought of his stupidity.

((I read a story that had what I thought was a really great fear for Ginny but it might be hard to deal with. The Bogart ends up turning into Ginny. However to understand it I will make you go and read it yourself, it is just a little one shot. I'll be supprised if it is over 500 words long. The story is called Dancing with shaddows by Mosylu and is a great read. If you don't use it I might have one of the twins but I give you dibs. LOL Ok, now back to your regularly scheduled programing LOL))Mel and Syne stood up and headed to the back of the line, neither was sure what their greatest fear would be. Syne thought she had an idea but had no clue how she could make the loss of her brother funny.

Lana lined up, ready to face the boggart. She remembered when her father actually took out in the muggle world, a dog started running up to her and her father, foaming at the mouth. The dog, of course, had rabies, and it was a good thing her father used magic to silence it. However, he got into alot of trouble with the ministry and that's when the rift between her family and the ministry started. She patiently watched everyone have their turn at the boggart.

Artemis got up slowly into line. She really wasn't sure what to think of. She had some happy memories but she wasn't sure what to think really.
Jessica got into line quickly. She thought about what her worst fear would be and thought immediately, My grandparents...
