 Andy O'Farrell
first year // ravenclaw // muggle-born // gender-fluid
____________________________________________
Oh, thank the gods Andy wasn't late this time! They sidled into class, one of the first to appear and looking sharp in their uniform (they had gotten one of the older boys to help them with their tie, finally). Taking their seat, Andy watched as the professor traced the wand movement on the board and explained the sort of charm they would be practicing. Though Andy was excited, they were also nervous. This was to be the first time they ever attempted to perform a piece of magic with their wand... What if it didn't work?
Andy chewed their lip fretfully, but dutifully stood and walked to the front of the class to take a feather and return to their seat. There, Andy took a steadying breath and gripped their wand tight. '.. Here goes...' They practiced their wand movement a few ties in the air to warm up, as if they were about to do a sprint. Then, as clearly as they could, the spoke the incantation aloud. "Wingardium Leviosa!" Concentration, check. A swish and a flick. And suddenly, their feather was hovering several feet in the air, and they exclaimed quickly as a smile lit up their face. "Look here, Professor! I'm doing it!"

《《《《 I just want some action so gimme my turn 》》》》 Charlie was a bit nervous for today. This was the first time he was going to use his wand to do a charm. He took hardcore notes and even tried to do a pronunciation key and motion diagram. Once it was practical time, Charlie grabbed a feather and returned it to his desk. He decided to just go for it. Though it suddenly felt like a bad idea once hi did it as he lit the feather lightly on fire. Nothing big but it made him slap the feather a couple times to prevent a larger problem. 'Well at least I can set things on fire....' He thought looking at the burnt edges of his feather. He took a deep breath and gave it another go. Ok this time it wasn't on fire but it tried to fly. Third times a charm right? Well it was for Charlie as his singed feather floated in front of his smiling face. 《《《《Like a Chinese drama and conspiracy》》》》

 I don't have time for dancin'
That's just gonna have to wait a while
Ain't got time for messin' around
And it's not my style... Calliandra entered the class when there were still only two other students in the room, making it easy to find a seat on her own, where she could concentrate on her work. She started writing her notes, nerves and excitement making her feel a little sick. She had never tried to cast a spell before, though she had seen it done often enough. But she was fairly certain she could manage. She marked the correct pronunciation and stresses, drawing a quick sketch of the correct movement for her wand. She drew a box around the image, labeling it to make sure she couldn't get confused later, and practiced the shape of the movement with her finger when she finished writing.
As soon as Professor Shoichet invited them to come forward and collect the feathers for their practicals, she whispered the incantation a couple of times, making sure that she said everything perfectly. She didn't have the experience, but she had done all her assigned reading and more, so she was as well prepared as she could be. She would just have to make sure that experience or no, she would still impress.
It was only after she was feeling confident in her abilities that she went forward to gather a feather. It was light and pale, and Calliandra couldn't stop herself from spinning it in her fingers while she walked back to her desk. Once she had returned, she settled back into her seat and placed the feather before her. A last quick practice of the movement, this time holding her wand, and Calliandra took a deep breath. "Wingardium Leviosa!" The feather shuddered a little, and Calliandra scowled. The stupid thing wasn't floating. She took another deep breath and settled herself. Carefully, she focused her mind before she tried again. "Wingardium Leviosa!"
This time the feather slowly rose in the air, higher and higher until Calliandra carefully pictured the feather stilling and staying in one place, imagining her will as a string to hold it in place. She put all her focus on keeping the feather exactly where it was, and she smirked when it obeyed her will. Perfect. And I'm almost there
I'm almost there

Listen to me, please sit down and stay-
I'm gonna build a house and hide away!

S H O I C H E T BLOOD TRAITOR │ FORMER HUFFLEPUFF │ CHARMS PROFESSOR Elsie sat at her desk, marking down each student for attendance as they entered the classroom, and waited until most of the seats were filled before rising from her seat, textbook in one hand, wand in the other. "Accio homework," she said cheerfully, collecting the papers, and turned to the correct page in the book as she wrote REPARO - THE MENDING CHARM on the board in bright red chalk. "Good morning everyone! Today we'll be learning about and attempting the mending charm, which should prove extremely useful to you over the course of your years at school." The blonde witch remembered being a gawky teen herself, and the sheer number of things she'd broken by either forgetting she'd left them somewhere, tripping over them... it went on.
"The mending charm was invented by a resourceful witch named Orabella Nuttley, who worked for the Ministry of Magic as a member of the Improper Use of Magic Office in the 1750s. When the Colosseum- yes, the one in Rome- was accidentally destroyed by magic, she created this charm to repair it. When cast effectively this spell can do amazing things- restore houses after natural disasters like earthquakes or floods, repair roads and bridges, and so forth. Obviously today we'll be practicing on a much smaller scale," Elsie added reassuringly.
"Reparo will return any broken object to its former state, and works on most everything.... with the exception of cursed or enchanted objects. However, and this is very important, so I want you all taking notes- this charm can only be used on inanimate objects. You cannot cast it on a person or animal. It won't work properly and you could scar someone terribly. Now, the pronunciation is reh-PAH-roh, and the incantation means 'to repair'." The professor turned back to the board, and sketched the wand movement of the charm:
"I have a number of broken items up here in this box on my desk- teacups, spoons and forks, plates, eyeglasses, latches... Come up and pick out something, and then you can get to work practicing." I don't know, I can't contain my heartbeat-
I am dancing, shrouded by green trees!
I am whirling, wearing my sun feet;
And humming children to sleep.
I love to watch the light you spread to the room...
See how it dances from you to me to you.

And it's not my style... Calliandra settled into her seat, remembering to place her wand before her on the desk. She sat and waited for class to start, reading to keep herself entertained. Quickly, she slipped the book back into her bag as the professor stood up.
The professor Summoned all their homework, and Calliandra watched in amusement as her work pulled itself out of the stack of her papers. She wanted to learn that spell, and she decided that she would look it up. Perhaps she could teach herself. The spell looked interesting and useful. She took clean notes, mentioning the history of the spell as well as the mechanics. careful to make sure that she sketched out the movement to the spell just as she had made notes for the last spell they learned and drew a box around it. Making everything match would make life easier if she needed to study it again.
As she had done before, Calliandra murmured the incantation under her breath, keeping her hands off her wand, then she practiced the motion with her finger. Once she felt comfortable, she moved up to the front of the room, choosing a pair of eyeglasses that looked like something her grandmother would wear. Maybe that was the reason she chose them, but she didn't bother to think about it. Instead, she sat back down at the desk and looked at how they were brother. One of the lens had a large crack running through it, and she pictured the crack shrinking and becoming shallower until it disappeared.
"Reparo!" She watched as the the glasses were fixed, smirking broadly. She was learning how to control her mind then - this time it only took her one try. Improvement was always a good goal, and it seemed she was meeting it. And I'm almost there
I'm almost there

Thinking:Yes! Everyday a little better, and before long I will be as close to perfect as is possible.

Charlie arrived to class with an apple in his mouth he didnt recall a food rule it there was he would plead ignorance. The light breakfast was not going to last him. He had snuck into the kichen to but after being spotted by one of the house elves he made it out with an apple. He had it mostly gone by the time he had arrived he arrived. He looked for a trash can, but he saw none. 'Darn I guess I'm keeping it with me.' He thought as he found a seat. He stuck his wand and apple core on the desk and got to the note taking. He wonered if his did this spell on this apple would he get a new apple. When it came time to practice he opted for a plate because he was always breaking them back home. He wanted to pay up the karma bill he was racking up. Setting the plate in a way so it would merge back just fine. He focused on a non broken plate in his mind an gave it a go. "Reparo!" He said at the plate. Sure enough it was whole again. He put the fixed plate to the side and decided why not try the apple. "Reparo!" He said at the apple. It didn't fix but now he had a singed apple. It did smell like baked apples now, so win?

 Gertrude Laura Adelwood
Adopted Muggleborn
First Year Hufflepuff I go by Gertie... Oh and I'm 11 years old... Location: Charms Class - Tuesday @ 8:00am Gertie was enjoying charms. It was a fun class, a challenge sometimes but fun. As she sat in the class the red headed girl took out her stuff. She began taking notes on the spell Reparo. It was the mending charm which sounded pretty handy to her. This Orabella Nuttley was pretty smart although she hoped she wouldn’t need to remember the person invented it. “Wow…” Gertie muttered to herself thinking to was amazing. She wanted to be able to fix everything too! Gertie took the time to write in big bold letters important next to the fact that the spell could only work on inanimate objects. She would never try. That was a promise. Not that Professor Shoichet’s was asking her to promise. Drawing the same squiggle that was on the board, Gertie smiled. “reh-PAH-roh…” She whispered to herself as she wrote down the pronunciation and then next to it the meaning. Once finished Gertie got up and got a teacup. It reminded her of Chip, the chipped cup from the Beauty and the Beast. “Okay Chip, let’s see if I can fix you.” She said with a smile before setting it down. It had a little bit more than just a chip but it counted. “Reparo.” She said doing her swirl like wand movement. “I did it!” She said in delight, the teacup fixing itself and becoming good as new. Status: Happy Wearing: Hufflepuff Uniform With: Class... OOC: --- No one's doubting your brains or creativity
But it's your heart I'm interested in
Ravenclaw's nice, but I believe you'll flourish best in
Hufflepuff!

Charms was Ana's destination. She held her head high in the halls as she weaved her way through gracefully in order to reach her next class. It was fair to say that this one was towards the top of her favorites. She enjoyed the professors lessons, and felt she eased into the subject with little resistance from her wand. It made her feel proud and eager to keep on learning. These trips to each of her classes were always very interesting to her in any case. The sights and features of the castle and the people watching she did on her way kept her extremely entertained. The time flew by and then she miraculously made it to class with time to spare. Strutting in the room with her chestnut locks flowing behind her, she found her normal seating arrangement and assembled her necessary items for class.
The instructions were written on the board as well as explained in detail by the professor. Today's lesson was on the 'Reparo' charm. A spell that was intended to fix destroyed objects. Multiple broken items were spread out across Professor Shoichet's desk, and each student was to choose one to practice fixing. She watched as the other students around her chose their items, she waited just a moment before escorting herself to the front to grab her own. She had decided on the latch, seemingly difficult enough to really challenge herself. She slid back into her seat and gingerly let the fragile item rest on her desk. Gripping her wand with dainty fingers, she swished her wand in the proper formation before echoing out a strong incantation. "Reparo!" She commanded firmly. She watched as the latched jiggled for a moment before settling back to its original unbroken form.
A smirk inched it's way on her lips. Her pride swelled as she completed it on the first try. She wish to grab another item, but also didn't want to steal from the other students in the class. Grabbing a bit of partchment from her back, she tore it gently in half and laid it out on her desk, just as she did with the broken latch. Again, she repeated the motion and the spell. "Reparo!" She watched as the paper molded itself back together, as if she were watching it tear in reverse. She clapped to herself for a moment, before clearing her throat and checking to see if anyone had noticed her little outburst. She was just proud of herself.

BLOOD TRAITOR │ FORMER HUFFLEPUFF │ CHARMS PROFESSOR
It was Tuesday morning, which marked Elsie's second day of classes. Luckily, her only class today was the first years, and if she'd handled the second and fifth year yesterdays, she was sure she'd be fine. She rearranged her desk for the millionth time, made sure the door hadn't swung shut on her, and began to write on the board as students began to file inside; the 8 o'clock bell was sure to begin to toll within a minute or two, marking the beginning of the first period of classes. When she was done writing she turned to face the class, wiping a bit of errant chalk dust off of her jeans. In one corner of the board the class rules were neatly outlined; in another the homework assignment, in yet another the supply list, and in the final corner, a doodle that looked like it had been scrawled by a student and smudged over. In the center WHAT IS A CHARM? was written in bright yellow chalk, and underlined. Twice. "Good morning everyone," Elsie said brightly, hoping she didn't sound condescending or as if she expected them all to chorus 'good morning' back. "I hope you enjoyed your first day of classes yesterday. This is Charms, and I will be your Charms instructor for the rest of your time here. My name is Professor Shoichet. I have a list with all of your names, but I'd like to put names to faces, so if you could all go around the room and tell me who you are and your house, that would be excellent. No need to stand, just be loud and clear. And ten points to the house of anyone who can tell me what a charm is while they're at it, alright? The tall blonde woman sat rather casually on the desk, long legs easily touching the floor, as she went down the list with her wand, looking up at the sound of each student's voice. I don't know, I can't contain my heartbeat-
I am dancing, shrouded by green trees!
I am whirling, wearing my sun feet;
And humming children to sleep.
I love to watch the light you spread to the room...
See how it dances from you to me to you.

 Rhett Fang Ye
<1st year>
☯
Rhett was a bit surprised he was the first one in class, never figuring himself to be a particular punctual individual. Then again this was the first class of the day and yesterday evening they had Astronomy. He had woke up early today eager for class and when he came in a bit surprised to find a different teacher than who taught his sister. Or he was pretty sure until Professor Shoichet introduced herself. She looked young, though, and a new professor meant no expectations for him to be like his sister and Rhett did enjoy being seen on his own merit (though if it was the same Herbology professor he would take Lola's good impression she left the grouchy man happily).
He frowned slightly when asked what a charm was. He knew he should know it and probably did but he couldn't come up with a textbook definition today. Oh well he would at least introduce himself when it came to his turn. When it did he stood (even though she said he didn't have to) and said, "Hi-ya, I'm Rhett Ye and I'm a Gryffindor."

Drew arrived to sit in the second row: not too near yet not too far. She was pretty much one of the early students to come here, and she had Ivar to thank for that because he warned her about how the interior can be... challenging. Drew was fine with that, she loved solving for the unknown, anyway.
The Gryffindor quietly listened to Professor Shoichet, then made herself ready when it was her turn to introduce herself. "Drew from Gryffindor, professor." She piped in, "Short for Drew-Jenna Eide. A charm is a type of spell that..." She paused and hummed thoughtfully, trying to explain it in her own words rather than looking as if she swallowed a book, "It adds or alters properties or traits of a certain target. Like, changing the color of an object."

Barry wished to make a good impression, as much as he didn't think he was going to get thrilled. On the other hand, he was being considerate because his sister Clara insisted along the lines of "Magic is great so deal with it" or something like that. Also she warned him the consequences if he ever caused trouble in class which was definitely ridiculous because by default, he wasn't a troublemaker. Sure, the time when he meet Akira and Callista wasn't that great (his cousin Kenji betrayed him by telling all of it to Barry's parents, for God's sake) but that was one time. Besides, those two Slytherins weren't bad people, Barry eventually thought, just that they're bad at not shutting up.
He sat on the third row behind his housemate Drew and quietly listened to the professor, he was planning on answering the question of what a Charm was when said housemate beat him into it. Barry gave an exasperated sigh and muttered, "Aw geez, I was goin' to answer that..."
The girl unfortunately heard his muttering and looked back to see him, smiling and sticking her tongue out teasingly at Barry, "Sorry bruv, first come first serve."
The young Gryffindor boy rolled his eyes, shaking his head when it was his turn to speak up, "Ibarra Bautista from Gryffindor." There, that's it. Because he couldn't think of a way to add on Drew's definition of a charm because she already explained it.

Rachele hurried into the Charms classroom, hugging her textbook to her chest. She was still getting used to the layout of the castle, but luckily hadn't gotten too lost on her second day of classes. She would get it down by the second or third week, she was sure. With Charms being the very first class of the day, starting at eight in the morning on the dot, the Hufflepuff had to get up pretty early to get her day started. The best thing about being a Hufflepuff, she had decided, was living right next to the Kitchens. Once she figured out how to get in, it would be awesome, that is. She still wasn't sure about it, planning to do some more research after Charms was over for the day. Once she had the entrance method solved, she could sleep in a little bit later and grab some breakfast from there instead of running all the way up to the Great Hall then up to class. But for today, she had to do it the hard way, getting up before sunrise to get dressed and ready for class, then rushing to breakfast in the Great Hall. Being a picky eater wasn't helping her time either... Oh well. Falling into the seat beside a Gryffindor girl, Drew she introduced herself as, Rachel felt as if she had been running all day, and the day was only just beginning. She took a breath, sitting up straight to listen to her professor. They were asked to introduce themselves, and were asked what a charm was. Drew answered, and a boy sitting behind her, Barry, seemed a bit upset. Rachel made a face, confused. There was always more information to add to an answer, especially one like this. Rachel looked back to the front. "Rachele Fioravanti of Hufflepuff, ma'am. In addition to Drew's answer, a charm is a spell that changes what an object does, rather than what it is. This is where Charms is different than, say, Transfiguration." Rachel wasn't familiar with many spells, only knowing one or two that she had read about before school started, but the concept was still fresh in her mind from reading the first chapter of her textbook the night before. The best way to excel, she had learned, was to be very well prepared.

 Faina Patrovna-Harcroft
Slytherin │ First Year │ Eleven Years Old │ Single
Faina was running a bit behind, as she was still figuring out her way around the castle, but still managed to get into class before the door might have been locked. She felt a bit like a slacker, finding a seat near the back of the room, but she didn't wish to be obtrusive. Her teacher would soon find out she wasn't a slug in her studies, though. The young Slytherin raised her hand, and waited to be noticed before adding, "Faina Patrovna-Harcoft, Slytherin House, ma'am. While Charms change what a subject does, Transfigurations change it's essential nature. It is the difference between a red chair becoming a green chair, as opposed to turning a man into a plant."

Lizzy ran down the hallway to where the Charms class would be, hoping that she wasn't late. She'd left breakfast early to get to class and avoid Peter, but she'd gotten lost and it was with the help of a couple of portraits that she found her way. She stopped near the door to the class, hands on her knees and panting heavily to get so oxygen back into her lungs. After catching her breath, she looked up to see that class had yet to start, to her relief. Thankfully, Drew was there as well and Lizzy slid into a seat beside her. "Hello, Drew," she smiled at the girl before pulling out her things and waiting for the class to start. It didn't take long and to her dismay, the professor wanted them to introduce themselves out loud. Drew seemed to know what she was talking about and smiled at her when she answered the professor's question, but when it became her turn, Lizzy paled and shifted in her seat uncomfortably. "I'm Lizzy, uh, I mean, my name is Elizabeth, Whyte, and um, I'm from Hufflepuff?" she stuttered, flushing at how badly that came out. She hated telling people her first name, other people always teased her for it and Peter always called her that despite her protests. She carefully avoided anyone's eyes as the next person spoke and dearly hoped a hole would opne up and swallow her down and away from here.
