Adalaide BlytheHufflepuff // Second Year // HoM Classroom // WearingCURRENTLY WITH // MichelleCURRENTLY FEELING // CalmCURRENTLY THINKING // 'A no-stress class... just what I needed. Perfect end to the week.'═════════════════════════════════
Adalaide shrugged a little at Michelle's question, offering a small smile. "I'm just glad the week is over, I guess. I wasn't a very nice first week back." She leaned forward, using her hand to support her chin and blowing out a puff of air to get her bangs out of her face. She was trying really hard to convince herself that it would get better, that it wouldn't get worse... Honestly, she was having a bit of trouble with it. But, she was generally an optimistic person, so she was sure that, the further she got from the feast, the better she would feel. "And I'm glad that we're in this class. Not the most fun, but at least it doesn't stress me out."

Grayson Powell History of Magic Professor Former Ravenclaw
≎≎≎≎≎≎≎≎
Now where did I put that wand?
Grayson walked into the classroom, eyes already taking in the room. He walked up to the chalkboard and, picking up a piece of chalk, quickly wrote something on the board.
Placing the chalk down, he looked over the class. "Welcome back, class. Last time, we went over what you had previously learned in class last year. Today we're going to be going over the history of the Ollivander family.
"The Ollivander family arrived in England around the time the Romans did about 382 BC, when the first Ollivander arrived. Upon seeing the quality of wands the ancient Britons used, he decided to set up shop and provide a better quality to the people here.
His descendants practiced the art of wandmaking, each successive generation building upon the knowledge of the previous. Each brought a distinctive viewpoint viewpoint to the craft, and even specialized to suit their needs, as well as the needs of the wizarding community. The last Ollivander to own the wandshop, Garrick, even went as far as to ensure that only the finest products would go into each wand, and also had a knack for remembering every wand ever sold in his shop."
He looked about the classroom. "Now, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask them. I'm pretty sure that there are some floating about in your heads, and I have no problem answering them."

Adalaide BlytheHufflepuff // Second Year // HoM Classroom // WearingCURRENTLY WITH // Marina & the othersCURRENTLY FEELING // CalmCURRENTLY THINKING // 'Oh, learning about the wandmakers...'═════════════════════════════════
Adalaide saw that all the students who had arrived in class seemed to be sitting together, although there weren't very many of them just yet. She joined them, happy to see that she recognized them all, except one girl, a Gryffindor. Not wanting to interrupt the Professor's lesson, she chose not to introduce herself, but instead sat on the opposite side of Marina. She offered the Slytherin a small smile before pulling out her things and turning her attention to the Professor. Ollivander's, huh? That would be really interesting to learn, she thought. She, like many of the other students, felt her hand move unconsciously towards her wand, smiling as she felt the cool wood under her hand. Just this summer, she'd finally sat down and taken a good long look at it, and had burst out laughing. She'd known that the wands chose the witch or wizard, and that it was almost impossible to get a less than perfect match, but her wand had turned out to be much more well suited for her than she'd ever considered, to the point that it was almost eerie. She'd noticed the faint carving on the wand the moment she got it, and the faint know at the bottom of the hilt. But, she'd never really paid attention to the specifics. But then, sitting in her room, she'd finally noticed... the knob at the bottom was a perfect, intricately carved pumpkin, and the vines on the shaft of the wand were, in fact, pumpkin vines, down to the exact right leaf shape. It made her smile just to remember that moment, and how silly she'd felt, not noticing it until then. She thought this lesson would be rather interesting... it would be nice to learn about the family of wandmakers.
