▬▬"An early morning walk is a blessing for the whole day." ▬▬


Vespera sat behind Jonah and Sona, and couldn't help but giggle when Sona grabbed Jonah, and Jonah grabbed Sona back. They were both so excited about animagus birds. It was kind of cute. She finished her notes and grabbed a tortoise from the table. As she approached her seat, it proceeded to pee on her. She groaned, she would have to finish all of class like this. Dumb creature. She sat it down and pointed her wand at it, imaging a tea pot, "Sciphustestudo." The tortoise turned into a teapot.... that still had the distinctive markings of a toruise (a shell design) she sighed, and then giggled, as a tail popped out of the spout, she had failed, but boy was that cute. "Reparifarge, the tortoise turned back into it's original shape, and she went back to work. She listened to Jonah and Sona and frowned, they were being very close together. What if they left her and forgot about her? They did see each other much more than her, with them being in different electives and different houses. She shook her head, surely she was just begin silly, she went back to working on her tortoise.








▬▬ "Even if that walk happens at three in the morning with your best friends." ▬▬

Sonora was ecstatic that Jonah understood her excitement--ourprofessorisaBIRD, for goodness sake! She nodded in agreement at his exclamation--and giggled when it was not at all what she thought.

At Jonah’s urging--and after double checking that her little turtle was unmarred after a successful reparifarge, Sonora took to reviewing the spell a little more seriously ”Right right,” she agreed, idly stroking the little turtle’s shell. Shelly made no comment except to move around a little bit, seeking a sunnier spot. But a few minutes later of course, Sona found herself searching the book for animagus theory instead of vertebrate transfiguration theory.

Is it a spirit animal kind of thing?” Sonora wondered, searching for clues. She jotted the note on a sticky to ask Professor Drage later. ”Maybe that’s better; I don’t know if I could choose of all the birds out there. Nightingales do have wonderful songs…but maybe a tiny bird would be more useful in curesebreaking?” She mumbled on about birds for a while longer before shrugging at Jonah's question, missing that he meant animals in general: ”If you were a bird then maybe an albatross? You’re good luck.”

Confident she had a better grasp of the theory, Sonora took a deep breath, counted to seven in her head and then tapped Shelly to warn them about a spell incoming. ”Sciphustestudo.” She pronounced clearly, momentarily clearing her mind of animagus things...mostly. The teapot was a little funny-looking, with a shell as a lid and patterned like a turtle, but at least it had two handle...spout..things. ”Or a penguin. Fun and charming. Shizam!” she giggled, bobbing Sone of Shelly's spout-handle things on Jonah’s shoulder.

She turned half around to Vespera, boppint the other handle on her hand before checking Shelley the teapot over. Definitely not her best transfiguration. But who could focus on making teapots when they were talking about turning into birds?

”If you were a bird Ves, you’d have to be a corvid of some sort. Clever and mischievous.” She added, bringing Shelly the turtle to bop Vespera’s hand. ”But what do you think? What would you want to be?

The birds, the sun, the stars, night sky,
It's such a sight to withhold.
Three-six-zero turn to see that we're not alone.
You have a house. Hello home.

On The Board:

Welcome Back!

Teapot to Tortoise
Sciphustestudo

    This spell is a more complex version of the spells we have been working on, and involves transfiguring vertebrates into items.

    The word is derived from Latin, scaphium meaning "pot, bowl, drinking vessel," and testudo meaning "tortoise." It is the incantation used for Teapot to Tortoise, and is pronounced sci-fus-tes-tu-doh.

    Looking back to the categories we have worked with, this spell falls under the Transformation Transfiguration branch. It is used to transform a teapot into a tortoise. This is an easy and simple Transfiguration spell, quite commonly used to practice at the start of intermediate Transfiguration classes. It is especially pertinent to know the components of a tortoise while executing this spell.

    The spell itself does not emit any sound or light, it strictly transforms a teapot into a tortoise when pointed at with the casters wand.

    The level of this Transfiguration is somewhat basic.

    t= Transformation of a teapot into a tortoise
    a= caster must be heavier than the teapot
    v= at least medium-mild
    w= any wand power
    c= fair
    Z= perfectly spoken, completely clear


Reparifarge
    This spell is the basic spell for Untransfiguration. It should be used to help undo mistakes during transfiguration as well as to revert an object that has been transfigured back into its original form. The incantation for this spell is Reparifarge, or for easier pronunciation, "re-par-ee-far-je."


Please Remember!
    As these spells always require the use of the formula for transfiguration, it shall be listed here. Please keep in mind the correct amounts for each part of the equation.

                                                About how we only get one life
                                                Woke me up right after two
                                                Stayed awake and stared at you
                                                So I wouldn't lose my mind

                                                Rick was sitting on his desk, a tank of tortoises near him and waiting for the class to get into the classroom before starting the lesson. The class was steadily improving, and Rick was glad to see it. He had been afraid that his tenure as a professor was going to be a complete wash, and he didn't want that. However, he knew that at least he was certain that the students were going to be proficient in Transfiguration by the end of school. At least that was his hope. He had seen them get better in the class as time went on, and he hoped that they continued to improve as much as they could. If nothing else, he was trying to make sure they were good at the subject at hand.

                                                He waited until the last of the students were in the classroom before he waved his wand and closed the doors behind them. He then looked around the classroom, deciding to get started. "Welcome back everyone. This year marks the third year that you have been in this class, which means you should have a firm grasp on the basics of Transfiguration by now. If you don't, feel free to drop by my office during free periods and I can help you out with any questions you may have, or help you out on any areas you are weak in. I do hope that your time in class has been good, so without further ado, we're going to start up on the topic of more advanced transfiguration and the potential you have in this class should you wish to push yourself for it."

                                                He concentrated for a moment, closing his eyes as he envisioned his animagus form. Instantly, there was a slight pop and in his place, a red-tailed hawk was perched on the desk instead. Rick took a moment to stretch out his wings before he took off from the desk, circling the room once before settled on the edge of the tank. Resuming his normal form, he grinned at the class, thoroughly enjoying the feeling of flying, even if he didn't have any good thermals to ride when he was in the open sky. "Now, for those of you that are unused to that form of magic, that was called Animagus, a highly-advanced and difficult to master form of transfiguration. For those that want to research it further, you may ask the Animagus professor or ask even me about the subject, but it's an example of some of the things that you will be learning from this year on out. Before, you were working on simple transfiguration, however now you are getting into the more advanced forms of transfiguration. This year is your introduction into such materials, so I advise you to be studious and work hard on your spellwork to master the subject."

                                                Looking back, he gestured to the board. "For the first lesson of the year, we will be discussing the spell Sciphustestudo, or Tortoise to Teapot. This spell is complicated because of the fact that we are not only working with vertebrates, but also with the fact that a tortoise has one thing most other vertebrates don't have. That is its shell." He calmly reached down into the tank and pulled a tortoise out to demonstrate what he meant. "The shell for this animal means that there is an extra bit of work on your concentration to incorporate it into the finished teapot. For those of you that can figure out how to do this easily, then you won't have any problems later. However, this is practice time, so I want to see everyone finish up with any notes from the board and come up and take a tortoise each. Practice the spell, and then untransfigure it again to try again. I will be walking around the room and observing, so if you have any questions or need assistance, then don't hesitate to ask."
