Sarah walked swiftly into the classroom, ready to begin her first class. She frowned, looking around the room and flicked her wand carefully. The shelves filled with books and papers appeared on each of the desks. She nodded, smiling. And turned to the board. She flicked her wand at the board and it read:
Lesson 1 - What exactly is an Animagi? 1. What is the difference between Animal Transfiguration and an Animagus?
Don't worry this will not be graded.
She walked to her desk and waited for students to arrive.

Summer strolled in, glancing around, she noticed that there was no one else in there. Shrugging to herself, she quickly found her way to the middle row. The middle row as this subject wasn't boring enough to go to the back and yet she didn't know how interesting it would be either. She grabbed the equipment that she needed as she scanned the board with her brown eyes.
She frowned it thought. She knew what an Animagi was but was unsure of how to describe it compared to Animal Transfiguration, something she didn't know. She sighed and then shrugged as she scribbled down her random answer.
An Animagi is someone who can transform into an animal, while also gaining their animal form's brain. And thus being unable to remember what they are supposed to be doing, which could cause harm to the person. While a wizard or a witch who can transfigure themselves into an animal form, whle still retaining their mental powers and knowlegde, are known as Animagus.
However the Animal Transfiguration can be preformed wandlessly, something which a few can acquire. It is possible for another witch or wizard to force an Animagus to transifigure from their animal shape and back into their human form.
Pausing, she wondered if she had wrote enough or even answered the question for that matter. Shrugging, she placed the end of her quill on her lip as she reread her parchment, before getting up and handing it to the teacher. She subconsciencely twiddled her hand in her fingers as she examined the layout of the classroom, not yet acquiring a taste nor a dislike for it.

Sarah smiled at the girl and glanced over the paper. She had gotten the basic idea of it. She sat back in her chair and waited for the rest of the class to arrive.
Artemis walked slowly into the classroom and took a seat behind Summer. She looked at the board and scribbled down her answer.
1. What is the difference between Animal Transfiguration and an Animagus?
And animagus is a person able to transform into an animal willingly and to keep human thought. They know what they are doing and are in control of it. An animagus transformation can be done wandlessly. Some can be forced from their form with strong magic.
An animal transformation is a person who is transformed into an animal but has no control over the form. They will not remember what happened afterwords either.
Jessica walked into the classroom and sat down a little ways behind Artemis. She scribbled down an answer on a sheet of parchment.

Asher entered the room and glanced around to see Summer, Jessica, and Artemis in it. He gave a smile to Jessica and Artemis but took a seat next to Summer. "Hey," he said to her as he looked up at the board. He read it quickly and rose his eyebrows since he didn't have a clue what the answer was. He ended up scribbling on his paper what came into his mind first...
Erm, well... An animagus is a much more personal type of transformation than a regular basic animal transfiguration. And that's about it. You're the teacher... so teach me.
Asher then handed it to the teacher.

((Yay to Summer! Again )) Summer glanced up as she heard a familiar voice, "Hey," she whispered back softly, as Asher sat down beside her. She was glad that they were remotely back to before and not full of awkwardness. She glanced over his shoulder, to read his answer and grinned to herself. It was a very 'Asher' reply.

Asher yawned. It was too silent. He got out a scrap piece of parchment and slowly started to scribble on it. "Wanna play hangman or something?" he asked curiously since he was bored as hell and that was the first stupid game that came up in his mind. "It's either that or me falling asleep..."

"Well you falling asleep would be pretty funny but I think I'll go for the hangman," she said grinning as she gave him a shrug. She wondered if there was any subject that he didn't or couldn't, should I say, fall asleep in. Well she thought of one, actually. But that was only cause it would look a bit weird to Miss Blondie and not at all impressive, yet she couldn't say much.

"But you'd be bored if I fell asleep," commented Asher as he started applying little small lines to his parchment for where the missing letters would go. "And my hint will be... It's something you really don't like." There were seven spaces in all on his parchment.

"Something I don't really like?" she repeated. Well she knew of two options that popped into her head. The first one was 'Blondie', yet that was a something... Shrugging, she chose the letter E, as both options had it but in a different place. So she'd know.

Jasper entered, and sat down in the far back. As usual. Taking out a piece of parchment, he wrote:
A animal transformation through transfiguration is... well, the wizard cannot turn into an animal whenever he or she wants too. And they might have it done to them against their will. An Animagi can transform into a certain animal whenever they choose.
Next, he wondered why he was doing this, considering it wasn't going to be graded.

Asher shook his head. "Nope," he said simply as he drew out the little platform and then drew a very large head dangling from it. "Lost your head..." he commented with a grin.

"It'd be pathetic if you couldn't figure this out..."

((Ok Ginny, you can just like pretend you were there the whole time and not be late... cuz I was gonna wait for you but now... I'm bored, so there *grins* haha I just figured out the hangman))
Sarah stood up and smiled under her frame of brown hair. She said in a quiet voice, "Alright class. I can see that most of you are here so lets start." She looked around and said, "Some of you know the differenc between animal transformation and Animagus and some are completely clueless." She continued, "An animagus can transform without a wand and knows what is happening. They still have a human brain. Animal transformation requires a wand, and the person doesn't know what is happening."
She smiled kindly, "Animagus takes awhile to completely control so I don't expect anyone in this class to get it right away. Most of you will sometimes transform when you don't want to," she paused, "Which can be slightly... troublesome. Once you get it though it will be fine. Any questions?"

((Haha okay. Lol if that ever happens again, just don't bother waiting even that long lol.))
BIC: Ginny had strolled into the classroom shortly after Jasper. After slinging her shoulder bag off her shoulder and onto the floor, she set her materials all over the desk, rather haphazardly; her quills looked like they would roll off the desk at the slightest movement. She looked up at the board and copied the question down onto some spare parchment.
1. What is the difference between Animal Transfiguration and an Animagus? With animal Transfigurations you can turn into whatever the caster wants, but with Animagi, you turn into an animal determined by your personality.
She screwed her nose up at the answer, not quite satisfied. Shrugging slightly, she let out a faint sigh and looked up, her head resting on her hand.

((Lol you figured it out before her )) Summer frowned, "Seven letters... What don't I like with seventh letters?" she asked herself. There was no E so Muggles, Spiders and Blondie had vanish from the deck of playing cards. Yet the rest of the pack remained, but she was clueless as to what it was. She was really hoping that it wasn't what she had a odd feeling it was. "I..." she said slowly as she waited to see if there was an I in it. Placed 2 to last, to be more precise.

Asher shook his head at the Professor's question. He turned back to Summer during the silence and nodded. "It looks like you're not as dunderheaded as I thought..." He added the i to where it was. Now one letter was filled, but the message still was quite undecipherable. Unless you're an alien. Or some creepy smart person.
