Grace smiled and shook her head. "Oh, I just thought ..." she began, "I'm just being silly." Now she was thinking allowed and while she was at it she decided to continue, no matter how silly she would sound. "It's just that I think we've met before but I can't remember when or where. But I don't think we have ... have we?" She frowned.

Post by Loren Hayes on Dec 8, 2006 21:25:03 GMT
Loren skittered quietly through the door at the back of the room, knowing full well that she was very late and most unlikely going to impress the new Potions Master with her tardiness. He would, of course, have to get used to it - Loren was never on time.
She scanned the room slowly as she slipped off her bag and sat down. Only the two Ravenclaws - a girl and a boy - looked familiar, but the blonde head just in front of her reminded her suspiciously of someone. It was when the girl spoke that she realised it was Grace Marks, one of the Hufflepuffs she had met the day before in Madam Puddifoot's.

Andie frowned. "No... I don't think we have..." She looked up as a new girl came into the room, then turned back to Grace. "You do look familiar though..."

Grace looked where Andie had looked and saw ... "Loren, hey, welcome!" She turned back to Andie and smiled, "maybe another life or something." She giggled at the notion then turned her attention back to Loren. "Hey guys, this is Loren." She smiled at eveyone and pointed them out in turn. "That's Alec, and LC and Andie. And that's Prof Black."

Andie smiled as everyone was introduced. Then, turned her attention back to the front of the room. Her mind however was thinking about other things... particularly about a certain Ravenclaw named Russell...

Amanda tiptoed through the door, hoping that she could sneak in unnoticed. She hadn't meant be this late, but she had overslept. Plus, being a first year wasn't making it any easier. In fact, it was making it harder. Plus she couldn't find her hair dye this morning. Today her hair was a dark purple with light pink streaks mixed in. She breathed a sigh of relief when she realized that no one had noticed her, and took a seat in the back of the room. No one's noticed you yet. she reminded herself grimly. Don't you think I know that!? she argued with herself irritatingly. Just letting you know... Shut up!. Unfortunately she had accidentally said that last bit outloud. That got their attention. "Oops.." she whispered as a blush spread over her cheeks.

Loren had just been about to reply to Grace when someone loud and spontaneous shouted just behind her. 'What the...?' The Ravenclaw turned to see a small, pixie-like girl sitting a table away, an expression of mock innocence on her face as if she had just been caught in the act of something. 'He hasn't noticed me,' Loren whispered with a wink. 'But your hair might catch his eye!' she giggled.

Amanda smiled shyly and giggled in reply. "I'm used to my hair attracting attention. It's always like this. Well, not always purple and pink but always some outrageous color." she paused for a moment to catch her breath, then continued, "I'm Amanda Leveque."

When Loren turned and looked at something, Grace smiled at Andie and looked too. It was a small girl who looked like she had also been hit by a hex like she had been a year ago. Grace smiled at her. "Welcome Amanda!" she said very smartly, then whispered, "don't worry, we'll all act like you've been here the whole time!" Grace looked over her shoulder and saw the professor was still distracted, then looked back at the small girl and winked.

Amanda smiled and laughed softly. "I'm actually surprised no one noticed me the second I walked in. I mean with hair like this. I'm kinda hard to miss. Or at least, that's what one would think!" she paused for a moment before continuing, "Who's the teacher?"

'My parents would murder me if I came home with my hair that colour,' Loren laughed. 'You're lucky you can look they way you please, even if it does draw attention.' She studied Amanda for a moment. The young Gryffindor seemed somewhat quite and timid, and Loren found it bizarre how much a mousy girl in personality could have much a miss-match outrageous appearance.
Loren looked to the front of the room where the professor sat at his desk. 'I don't know to be honest... I think he's new. Who is he, Grace?' Loren asked the Hufflepuff.

Amanda laughed. "My parents are really cool. Actually when I'm, at home, my mom helps me do my hair. Actually, she does the same thing to her hair!" she paused, "So do either of you sing or play any instruments?"

Caleb stood up from his desk knowing that more students have arrived. He pulled out his wand and in a deep blue he wrote his name in the air. [glow=blue,2,300]Professor Mandrake Black[/glow] He quickly changed the letters. [glow=red,2,300]Professor Caleb Black[/glow] "Now that new arrivals have came, lets start the lesson anew. Now who can tell me what are in the five cauldrons? And the people that answered earlier, please refrain from telling." Caleb said giving the class a warm smile. |

Amanda looked down at her potion, and raised her hand. "I'm not sure but I think it's Amortentia, sir. It's the most powerful love potion in the world. I recognize it because of its mother-of-pearl sheen, and the smoke rising in characteristic spirals. Also, it smells differently to each of us, according to what attracts us. Of course Amortentia, doesn't really create love, since love can't be created, but rather a powerful infatuation or obsession" she paused as she waited for an answer, she hoped she was right. She would be extremely emabarrased if she had just made a fool of herself in front of the whole class.

"So sorry but incorrect. Amortentia has the same characteristics as this potion but its not. This..." he said signaling with his hand to the potion Amanda was at. "Is Wit-Sharpening potion. Its used by Aurors and the common wizard. When one needs to ponder over something important a little bit of this and you'll be able to figure anything out. It is illegal however for tests at ALL wizarding schools. Can anyone tell me what ingredients are in this potion?" said Caleb to the class as he took a seat at his desk to take a swig from the glass on the table.
