History of Magic I (1/4) *New Class 2/10*

[Yukina101]

What if, what if we run away?
What if, what if we left today?
What if we said goodbye to safe and sound?
And what if, what if we're hard to find?
What if, what if we lost our minds?
What if we let them fall behind and they're never found?

❃❂❁Chanda walked excitedly to his first ever history lesson, probably more excited than most would be. To be honest, he was still reveling in the amazement that he was finally at Hogwarts and had been across a gigantic lake and sorted by a talking hat! He'd sent a letter to his sister about that and hadn't gotten a response back but he was pretty sure she'd have something funny to say about it. After walking into the classroom, he found a seat in the front and pulled out his notebook, text, and pen to write notes. When class started he listened attentively agreeing that history was an important subject to learn. However he was slightly blindsided when Professor Powell asked them to tell why history was important. Chanda waited for someone else to go before raising his hand to answer. "History's important to learn because sometimes you only learn one side of a story or event and it's important to learn all sides equally or else we could end up repeating bad mistakes." he answered feeling a tad self conscious about his answer instinctively knowing his hair was darkening from it's normal red to a dark brown.

My youth, my youth is yours
Trippin' on skies, sippin' waterfalls
My youth, my youth is yours
Runaway now and forevermore
My youth, my youth is yours
A truth so loud you can't ignore
My youth, my youth, my youth
My youth is yours

Eiji bounced into class and took a seat next to Chanda. He grinned at his fellow classmate. Eiji quickly un-packed his book, parchment, ink and sugar quills. He sketched a chibi of his teacher and jotted down what the professor said. He then sketched a chibi of his classmate and wrote what he had responded with. He nibbled on the end of his sugar quill while thinking on what to say.

Eiji waved his hand and hopped up from his seat. "I know we can learn both national and world history." He stated. "I know they are also important for different reasons. National history teaches us what is unique about our own land and people, while world history teaches us a better understanding of how and why the world got to be the way it is."

Eiji the flopped back into his seat and jotted down what he had said as well. He then offered a sugar quill to Chanda.

▬▬"Just as there are two sides to every story, there are two sides to every person. " ▬▬

Vespera sat in History and began listening to the lecture. She loved history, but didn't want to sit in a classroom for it, reading about it would have been better. She wondered if there was a way she could miss class and still pass. Maybe if she convinced someone to give her their notes? She shook her head and tried to pay attention. "You need to learn history so you aren't idiotic about what happened before you were born" Vespera rudely answered the question. She began to write her notes in a very paraphrased outlined form, she would read about it later.

▬▬ "Within each of us is the capacity for both good and evil." ▬▬

Her very first class at Hogwarts. Sonora took a seat at the front of the classroom next to a boy with--was he eating his quill? Does it still write? Watching the quill led her naturally to notice the little chibi in his notebook. wait! Is that Professor Powell? That's adorable!

She found herself sketching the front of the classroom as she took notes along with her classmates answers and jotted down their insights into a neat little column, but Professor Powell had taken her best reason. History was full of fun stories and that was reason enough for her. She glanced over at the chibi-professor again with a small grin.

❃❂❁Chanda smiled and gave a small wave to Eiji as he sat beside him for class and tried not to watch his talented friend draw. Which of course was a very hard thing to do, especially since all his drawings were really small and cute. And he even drew him! Wicked! After he said his piece, the Hufflepuff took his turn and taking a leaf from the other's book, he jotted down what he said and nodded in agreement. It was sometimes hard to focus on other important history matters rather than just the ones from your homelands since those could cause an effect. He was pretty sure he saw a program about that in primary but he couldn't remember it all too well. Chanda eagerly took the offered sugar quill from Eiji and made a mental note to make him something nice in exchange. Maybe a handmade bookmark? Or was that too bookwormish? Maybe if he added some nice beads or charms on a tassel it wouldn't matter. He was brought out of his thoughts by the rude tone of Vespera giving her own opinion on the matter. Chanda frowned because he supposed what she said wasn't technically right (it was basically what the professor had said anyway) but did she really have to be so mean about it? "Well...that's kinda harsh calling someone an idiot just because they don't know everything about everything from the times before they were born, don't you think?" he said aloud hesitantly. He didn't want to start an argument but she didn't have to be so mean!

The classes were somewhat, 'enjoyable'. They weren't though he is wondering what the ones he didn't take were going to be. Especially this class. The professor introduced himself as this class has no wandwork and was going to be about history. After his introduction and example he asked why history needs to be learned?

Alex raised his hand and answered Professor Grayson Powell question. "By learning about the past we have a foundation to build from and influencin' the decisions we make in the future. And hopefully not repeat the same mistakes for years before."

Eiji couldn't help but nod to what Chanda said. Vespera did seem a bit harsh with her response. There was other ways she could have phrased it without it seeming like she was attacking others. He smiled encouragingly at Chanda. He the pulled out another paper and sketched a chibi of Vespera with dragon wings and breathing fire. He slid that over to Chanda with a wicked grin.

Eiji then grinned at the girl sitting next to him. He couldn't help but admire her sketch of the classroom. It always made him happy when he saw another person draw. He offered her a sugar quill too. I wonder if I can get Shiro to send me more sugar quills for Yule. Eiji thought, Not being funny, if I keep giving them away I might actually run out before the end of the year. I wonder if I bought any real quills. Oh well.

Sonora accepted the quill with a but of tentative confusion but mimicked his nibbling. It was sweet! She grinned and nodded her thanks for the snack quietly, resuming her diligent notetaking and occasional doodling of the scene. She glanced over again at the boy's pages--he'd drawn another thing but she couldn't see it clearly. He seemed to be drawing primarily characters, which made her quite intrigued because Sona had never worked on characters as much as she had drawing scenery and backgrounds.

Annie's first magical class didn't sound all that magical even though it had magic in its title. History of Magic? None the less Annie was thrilled to learn the history of the world she was just recently thrust into. Annie was the first in class and took a seat in the front, pulled out her notepad and pencil and eagerly waited for class to start. Professor Powell introduced himself he started with a little history and Annie quickly wrote 'witch burnings 1600s-Statute of Secrecy' 'crisis of last century? magical cooperation.' When Annie had a chance she raised a hand and said, "Well usually we're told that we learn history so we don't make the same mistakes as the past... I don't know how well that works though." To Annie it seemed history, even learned, tended to repeat itself quite a bit.

For a moment the hat was silent before speaking....
You're a lively one, for sure
Kind and brave, unbridled optimism
Hm, this is a tough one
But... yes, I think, for you
Hufflepuff!

Margaux was confident going into History of Magic that the class would not be particularly challenging. Her tutors had drilled her on history for years. It was likely a class for the benefit of the undereducated or the muggleborns, Margaux decided. Either way she figured an easy O was much the norm, why should a class for the dumb and muggleborns be any different? Margaux noticed the Hufflepuff twin of Jessalyn Prescott, her unfortunate dormmate. They weren't really twins but looked it and acted like it when together. Also one actually spoke and could hear. Thankfully, Margaux thought, she got the quieter one. She was sure she'd learn more on why she didn't like either as the week and years go on. Taking a seat on the other side of the room from the redheaded Hufflepuff, Margaux listened and took notes on parchment with quill as the Professor began.

His introduction proved to her about her assumption of the class. For dullards and muggleborns. Margaux listened to Annie's answer and raised a brow. That seemed awfully cynical for a person of a house that is supposed to be as peppy as Hufflepuff. Margaux offered, raising her hand, "It also shows us where we come from so we know where we can go from there."

Well, then, if you're so sure of what you want
It'd better be
