Damien took notes for the lecture from a seat on the opposite side of the classroom from where his fellow third years sat. Michelle and Adalaide were in this lesson, along with two boys he didn't think he'd ever met. No one for him to sit with. That bothered him for some reason, although he wasn't entirely sure why. He'd never cared much in the past. He supposed he'd simply gotten used to sitting with Dominic, or, hell, even Marina, and was no longer used to being all alone. Even if he didn't speak to his friends, he rarely sat by himself anymore in lessons. But, it seemed that, in this particular one, he would have to. He doubted very highly if his cousin would respond kindly or gently to his trying to sit anywhere near them. So, he resolved to focus purely on his studies for this lesson. If he had to go it alone, that just meant he had no excuse for poor grades. He looked to the teacher, listening carefully. He'd never heard the story of Harry Potter's first year at Hogwarts, of his first real fight against the Dark Lord, in such detail. Coming from a blood purist line, and with an almost fanatical mother, he rarely heard anything at all about The Boy Who Lived. His parents might not want to kill all the halfbloods and muggleborns, but they certainly didn't like them. Although, he thought his father liked Marina... even knowing she was a halfblood. It was... strange. Perhaps almost losing his heir had taught him not to concern himself with such things. Damien shook his head. He'd never understand the way his father's mind worked.

Thoughts: '...'
╚══════════════╝ As the students proceeded to file inside of his classroom, Professor Angel’s back was turned to them as he hurriedly jotted down the spell for the day’s lesson. It was fairly easy and more than useful at times if the imagination was put to the test. Only once he was sure that every student had entered, he spun on his heel to address the class. ”Welcome back, today you’ll begin your first spell for my class.
“The corrumpo spell is a nifty little charm, which, can cause iron to turn to rust. Essentially, iron steel bars, or chains, handcuffs, even certain vaults or safes. A quick and tight zig-zag line with your wand and then thrust the point at the object—but be wary, try to keep each exact zig and zag the same size, or the spell could backfire.
“Now, I’ve a collection of iron items up here, locks, chains, keypads, keys, doorknobs, scissors—all sorts. Come up here and collect one and give it a try. If you need any help, feel free to ask me.”Quote: Name of the spell Corrumpo Pronunciation of the spell Corr-um-PEE-oh Meaning behind the name Corrumpo meaning: to break up, destroy, annhiliate / spoil, weaken Effects of the spell This spell causes any iron or iron based object to rust upon will. Wand movements required to perform properly With a swift wrist, form a zig-zag line with the tip of the wand and then thrust it towards the object. Is there a distance requirement? Item must be within sight Are the effects lasting? The effects last upon the object until the spell is reversed [[gah, sorry for not posting yesterday, still a little sick. x.x]]]

When she realized what she needed to do she moved to the front of the class and grabbed short chain. When she had returned to her desk she set the chain down and moved her wand in a zigzag line.

Thoughts: '...'
╚══════════════╝ Quick, boastful strides had ventured the Hispanic professor from his office towards his classroom, where, his first class of the day had awaited him. As the door swung open with the flick of his wand, a watering can levitated off of his desk and began to douse the foliage scattered throughout the back wall of the classroom. Manually grasping a stick of chalk from a board, Angel proceeded to sprawl the details of the next spell upon the board, ready and waiting for the students. ”Glad to see you again—today, we will be practicing the counter charm to what you learned yesterday, which, is considerably more difficult, the reason being, is that most people, or well, students for that matter, find much more ease in destroying something, than recreating it.
“Instead of beginning with the zigzag, this time, you’ll point at the object, and then finish with a zigzag—but when you conclude, you have to remember, not to thrust or make any essential point towards the object, because if you do, then it’s very possible that anything can go wrong.
“Repeat after me, and then, you can give it a go and begin practicing.” After a short round of chorus pertaining to the pronunciation of the spell, he cast a silent wave of his wand which had conjured a series of iron, or steel, all clad with a deteriorating film of rust. Quote: Name of the spell: Inveratus Pronunciation of the spell: In-VET-er-A-tus Meaning behind the name: Inveteratus meaning: hardened by age, of long-lasting Effects of the spell: Reverses the effects of rust on any iron based object Wand movements required to perform properly: With a stiff wrist, thrust the point of the wand towards the object, and conclude with a zigzag motion Is there a distance requirement?: Item must be within sight Are the effects lasting?: The effects last upon the object until the spell is reversed, or, over time, and weather permitting, rust may again appear if unkempt.

It was really starting to become a habit of hers. She slipped into a desk and listened to the lecture on the new spell, repeating the spell quietly to get the pronunciation right before staring at her rusted piece of iron and blinking at it. In her first year she had been terrible at almost all magic. but as the years progressed she seemed to be better at the more difficult magic while simple spells alluded her. With a quiet sigh she jabbed her wand forward and made the zig zag motion while saying just as quietly, "Inveratus" At first nothing happened and she stared at the iron, cursing at it in her head, but then slowly the rust seemed to flake off and disappear leaving shiny metal in it's wake. Before the entirety of the object was clear of rust though the spell stopped working. She rolled her eyes silently and did the incantation again. With her second saying of the spell, the rest of the rust disappeared and the shiny metal revealed a simple iron key. OOC:...

 I'm looking for a place
I'm searching for a face
Is anybody here I know
'Cause nothing's going right
And everything's a mess
And no one likes to be alone
Isn't anyone trying to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home? 𝑅ichard 𝐷rage

—¤÷(`[¤* *¤]´)÷¤— After entering and taking a seat, Rick listened to the professor talk about the spell they were going to perform this class. He could definitely understand the reasoning behind having a spell reverse rust. After the professor conjured the chains, he examined the chains before he went to work on the spell itself. "Inveratus!" He frowned as the rust didn't come off all the way. It took several attempts before the redhead was pleased enough with his work to stop. ----------------------------------

Thoughts: '...'
╚══════════════╝
Several silent flicks and flurries of his wand had led directions to be scribed upon the chalk board that stood at the forefront of the classroom adjacent the students desk. Today, bronze cauldrons were placed at the head of every desk, which, for this class, had transformed into a longer wooden table to accommodate all of the ingredients and materials deemed necessary. Hasty steps manually pushed a cart that he had prepared with all of the ingredients and measuring cups needed and several of the rarer ingredients were already bottled to the exact increment, as well.
”Today, you will begin learning the Baleful Brew, which, when completed correctly, eliminates any hindrance or hesitation from fear, paranoia, or worry, or sorrow… And, as you can imagine in the time of period of alchemical heights, this potion was very, very useful when trying to attain certain rare potion ingredients. I took the liberty of completing the first step for you which requires a twenty four hour preparation period. Before you begin, I would like you direct your attention to step number four.
“That step specifies that, as you stir the contents in the cauldron, you’re allowed to stir clockwise as many times as need be, it does not matter, but if you decide to stir counterclockwise during this step, you may only stir eighteen full circle strokes, at the most and at the least, no more. So, you really don’t need to stir counterclockwise because of the risk involved, if you do it one too many times or less, then the chances of the potion brewing successfully are significantly reduced and chances for accidents increase, but if you do decide to stir counterclockwise—remember, only eighteen strokes—and manage it successfully, it will actually increase the rate of success for the potion. Now, if nobody has any more questions, you may begin brewing….
And remember, the first one to bring me the perfect potion gets to keep a small portion, and the added bonus of twenty-five points to your house.”Quote: Baleful Brew- All sense of fear, worry, and paranoia are gone, the drinker will be encouraged to act upon basic and primal impulse, eradicating any emotion and fear, and the drinker will successfully be able to do what they otherwise could not. For example, a man too fearful to fly will feel no qualms while under this potion. 1 ½ cup of Essence of Dittany 3/5 cup of flobberworm mucus 3 grams of dried Asphodel leaves 1 ounce crushed Wormwood 1 handful of Aconite flowers 1/5 cup of molten Antimony 4 Doxy eggs 2 Dragon livers 5 Eel eye 5 1/3 grams of dried Venomous Tentacula leaves 12 pints of syrup of Hellebore 6 fl. Oz of Salamander blood 11 grams of Scurvy grass 2 grams of Lovage flowers 1 milligram of powdered unicorn horn 1. Mix and stir Dried Asphodel Leaves with the Dried Venomous Tentacula leaves in a mortar and crush until contents are near powder form, and then pour into a separate basin. Stir in 1 ½ cups of Essence of Dittany, and 3/5 cup of flobberworm mucus into the basin (preferably with a wand) and let simmer for twenty four hours to let the powder absorb. 2. Pour Salamander Blood into your empty cauldron and set to boil. After precisely six minutes, drop each Dragon Liver in, one at a time, while slowly mixing in, and then let sit and boil. 3. Once the mixture comes to a boil, stir in the asphodel, venomous tentacula, essence of dittany, flobberworm mucus mixture into the cauldron *only* stirring counterclockwise. The thick, red and course potion should take on a thinner, smoother texture now. 4. Once the mixture has liquefied, stir clockwise as need be, but *only* stir counterclockwise eighteen strokes at the most, or least. (See Professor for Further Instruction) 5. Drop in the Doxy Eggs and sprinkle in one handful of Aconite Flowers. 6. The potion should then immediately morph into a deep and vibrant violet color, wafting fumes of pink hues. 7. Stir in one ounce of Crushed Wormwood, and only *six* ounces of Syrup of Hellebore. 8. Allow contents to boil for over ten minutes before stirring in five Eel Eyes. 9. Also, combine Scurvy Grass and Lovage Flowers in a separate basin; add the final six ounces of Syrup of Hellebore into the mixture and stir the ingredients until the solidity of the grass and flowers have melted into the compound. Then add to the cauldron stirring counterclockwise. 10. Finally, add a dash of Molten Antimony (1/5 cup) and the Powdered Unicorn Horn (1 milligram.) The potion will then spark with a luminescent glow if done correctly.

Adalaide smiled as she listened in on today's lesson. Potions, excellent. She only hoped that she would do well. She didn't think she really needed the potion for anything, but it might be nice to have anyway, what with her terrible anxiety. Perhaps she could use it if she ever got too nervous to perform a spell in class... but, then, that wouldn't really help, because she'd never be able to do the spell again. She'd be too upset about the fact that she'd only been successful because of the potion. Oh, dear. That was... that was discomfiting. She sighed a little, starting in on the potion. She bit her lip a little. Clockwise, or counterclockwise? She knew that she could do the potion right if she did it counterclockwise, no problem. So, should she take a risk? She decided not to, too nervous by far. One day, she might take more risks. That day was apparently not today, though. She completed the potion and turned it in, hopeful that it would at least be done well. She felt like she might have been nervous and messed it up a tad.

Damien, for his part, couldn't really think of a use for the potion, at least for himself, so he wasn't overly concerned with getting it perfect. He was sure someone else would likely need it more than him, considering that he didn't know of a single reason he'd need it. Perhaps last year it would have been helpful, but today he wasn't feeling any of those things. He was actually happy, which is something he didn't recall being for the longest time. He brewed the potion carefully, still wanting to get it as close to right as possible. Once he was done, he brought it to the professor, curious as to how he'd done.

╚══════════════╝
One by one, as the students stood to submit their brew, Professor Angel smiled genuinely as he took each one without a word, but only nodded. It wasn’t until he had received the last student’s product did he finally take a moment to closely examine each potion. Some, he noticed, had the thick tinges that were nearly impossible to avoid at times, but there was one, the swished with perfect velocity. ”My, this is quite brilliant work Mister Rowley, very, very commendable, that’ll be twenty-five points to Gryffindor, and you sir, get to keep this as a reward.
“Use it wisely,” Professor Angel grinned happily as he crossed the room to return Cameron the sample of his potion, the small vial would be just enough to last roughly a little less than hour. ”Ah, it seems class time is over, you are dismissed.”
********
The professor entered the classroom and set about watering each of his plants, there wasn’t any sort of direction written on the board like there usually was for class that day. He waited patiently for each of his students, they had gone over just about everything they had needed to this year and he decided it would be a brilliant time to review what they had learned thus far.
