Potions Lesson One - Fourth Years

[Evangeline Webb]

Evangeline was getting more and more settled into her role of professor here at Hogwarts and she was even beginning to want to come to lessons, where as before she had merely gone out of boredom and to have a quiet place to clean souls away from the world, she often liked to do this while sitting down lately it meant that she improved her skills but that she also could do other things at the same time, where as if she was doing the rounds physically it would take her so much longer and she would be far more tired when she had finished.

With a small smile on her lips she sat in the middle of a ring of cauldrons and their eerie green light reflected on her pale skin, the book for the potion recipie open in front of her, Evangeline waited for the others to appear, her scythe set on the wall behind her, it was pleasant to be down here when she was alone, and she hoped that the arrival of students would not ruin this calm and almost serene atmosphere as the base potions splashed lightly against the side of the cauldrons.

On the board she wrote down the lesson topic for today;

'Black Fire Potion'

[Marylin Mason]

Marylin sighed a little bit as she made her way to her lesson. Her holidays had been boring and, largely, annoyingly unproductive. But there was nothing to moan about now since the lessons were starting, meaning the holidays were well and truly over for another year. Hopefully they'd be interesting the next time around.

Moving into the classroom, she moved to his desk to wait for the other students and the professor's cue to start learning. She nodded to the professor,

"Good morning professor."

Nicholas sighed to himself as he put on a bright smile and walked towards his lesson. He longed for the day when he could act like he normally did. How he wanted to act all the time. He was getting sick of having to hide behind a fake smile. He wanted people to see the real him. But they wouldn't understand.

So he sat down in his seat with a cheerful smile and waved to the professor,

"Good morning professor."

[Evangeline Webb]

Evangeline saw that there were students in her class, noted the time and she thought that it would be time to start the lesson, drawing herself out of her thoughts with only a faint glow of her eyes showing that she was now ready to teach the lesson. With that same neutral expression on her face she stood, and walked over to the board where she tapped the lesson topic.

"Today we are learning aboutblack fire potion, can you tell me the effects of the potion on the drinker?" she asked the students sitting in front of her, who didn't seem to be as excited as she felt inside to begin the lesson.
