You suggest the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The other first grader Hufflepuff girl also votes for it. Anya votes for of course the Jules Verne. The two Gryffindors and the Slytherin votes for the A Tale of Two Cities. Hannah votes for White Nights.

>A Tale of Two Cities has been selected as the book to read this month.

You spend some half hour there, as you haven't read a book yet the club doesn't have much to talk about. The first grade Hufflepuff girl, named Mary, asks if you have meet with the DADA teacher yet. She says "I think she looks very scary... I don't know but... just something is weird about her." Slytherin boy, Raphael just shrugs and says she looks okay.

"I think she is okay... I mean my parents told me DADA teachers are always a bit different from the others anyway." Anya says she was a bit afraid when the professor first appeared in the class. Raphael says he doesn't recognize her family name at all but she seems okay.

You talk a bit more and then the club is over until the book is over for next month. After the club Anya asks you if you can help her about the Dixies homework.

>Yeah sure
>Maybe if I have the time later
>No, sorry it's your own work

>>42781111

But you gotta help me on a subject of my choice.

"Yeah sure!" you spend some time with Anya before the Transfigurations class. You tell her where does these creatures live, what do they eat, what do they like, and of course how to fend them off. She seems really grateful. At the end of your study session an older Ravenclaw boy is walking towards you. He looks quite older than you. Maybe 6th grade. "Hey, Apise!" he calls to you. "I am Anthony Latson. Quidditch captain. Do you have any interest in the game?"

"Oh really?" He looks upset. "I have only another year as captain here before I finish the school but I was looking for some good players before I leave to train in my stead..." He looks a bit thoughtful. "I asked you because I always ask to kids with some good player parents. You see every year I do my research to find kids and I look up their parents from the yearbooks. Since your mother was a good player, I thought it was worth a shot!"

"Wait..what?" Your mom never talked to you about playing Quidditch at all. You didn't show much interest but this weird that it didn't even come up. You are not sure if his guy is correct. "I am not sure you are right about my mother being a player. Also...even if she is how is this even work? You think Quidditch skill is genetic?"

Anthony just shrugs. "Better than nothing, no? Anyway just check it if you want to learn for yourself. You can just check the room where they keep all the old Quidditch cups, pictures and records and stuff. It's just downstairs. I am sure I saw your mother's team on the wall there." Then he simply walks away to talk with other students and try to recruit them.

You just need to know this. You leave the others and say you need to check something out. You leave for downstairs and find the Quidditch room.

There are many dusty stuff in the room. Everywhere some strange flags, scarves, cups and stuff. You see some team pictures finally. You manage to find the Slytherin wall and it goes chronogically so you try to find your mom's class. Then you find it finally. Damn, it's true! Your mom WAS in the Quidditch team!

She stands in the middle of the picture with another girl around her age. They both hold their bats like swords against each other and they laugh in the picture. Your mother looks young and beautiful with really long dark hair. The rest of the team is scattered around them with the Seeker holding the Cup on the ground. It seems she was a Beater.

There are also the names of the players under them. Just next to the other Beater girl, Andromeda Tonks, there is your mother's name, Joan Minerva Testudos.

You are quite surprised at this news. You think it's kind of cool.

We can either skip the class (out of the screen we will attend of course) and timelapse a bit or go to the class. I want to leave you as much as free I can, I don want to railroad.

You get out of the Quidditch room and run to the Transfigurations class and catch up with the others. The classroom is in the south tower. You can see from the big windows of the class that the sun is slowly starting to set and it is a clear day. The weather is still warm which is a good surprise for September in this region.

You wait for at least ten minutes and the Professor is nowhere to be seen. Bored, Valdis Viridian stands up and starts telling jokes. Soon all the class follows his example, shouting, making jokes, throwing papers.

Suddenly the small figurine on the professor's table enlarges with a loud "crack" and there the Professor McGonagall stands next to her table. You never seen before such a perfect Transfiguration magic.

"So it seems, even Ravenclaw students this year, has the attention and discipline spawn of an Algerian Faerie! Ten points from Ravenclaw"

Okay, not a great start.

"Does anyone know what is the Gamp's Law of Elemental Transfiguration?"

>Raise your hand
>Don't raise your hand
>Other

You have %60 chance to remember what it is fully. I want a 1d10 if you decide to answer. 1-2-3-4 rolls fail. I take the second as always.

>>42782465
>Raise your hand

Rolled 8 (1d10)

>>42782465
>Raise your hand

Rolled 6 (1d10)

>>42782465
You should only raise your hand when you fully know the answer.
So, my vote is "remember, then raise hand, or dont remember and keep it down".

>>42782465
>Raise your hand
I'd think we wouldn't raise our hand if we don't remember so see if we remember it first, then raise hand if we do.

>>42782506
You raise your hand and Professor lets you answer. "Gamp's Law of Elemental Transfiguration is a law governing the magical world. It regulates the rules of Transfiguration." Then you continue to explain a bit more. You are thankfully, correct!

You can see some students look at you for a few seconds like with a "this guy knows a lot" look in their eyes.

Professor McGonnagal then proceeds to teach you how to turn the matches on your desks into needles, which is the most easiest Transfiguration spell.

Viridian manages to burn his match, Anya manages to nearly achieve a perfect needle. Glenn seems to be not so bad but not good either.

>>42782698
It's funny how the 'turn match into needle' charm is so similar to the 'detonate your own spleen' spell

>>42782698
Your match, just stay as it is. It doesn't even catch fire. Just stays completely unchanged. You seem to understand now that no matter the theoratical information you have, you need to have also some practical experience.

Professor praises Anya as she was that most successful student in the class.

Your homework for next two weeks is to study and learn on the Avifors spell.

You have lunch now and then Charms class. Between you have some time to kill as you want freely.

>What would you like to do? Feel free to discuss and get a consensus.

>>42782861
Maybe ask Anya for help with the Avifors spell

>>42782861
Time for pooling knowledge and being helpful to pay off. Poke Anya about helping you figure out the spell.

>>42782907
Second.

Double up study.Doxy for Avifors.

We could write a letter to our parents, and tell mother about finding her picture in the quidditch room.

>>42783002
Hmm, yeah we could do that too. Don't know how much time we have before the next class, though...

>>42783002
Maybe mom will send us some more...pictures.

>>42783002
Letters can also be made at night. Give us ample time to write and deliver in the morning.

>>42782907
>>42782916
>>42782936
You come up to Anya to get the studying started! You ask her if she knows anything about this new spell. She tells you she has some kind of idea but not fully. "It is used to turn the target into a bird I think or some creature that is like a bird, like a bat or something. I think if you master it you can actually send a flock of birds where you want with a flash of light. So I think it is a useful spell!" Then you two spend some time until the Charms class reading about the spell. Now you have some kind of idea on the spell but you need more studying.

Just when you are finishing up a flock of owls enter the Great Hall and bring some papers. They bring mostly copies of the Prophet. It seems some kind of news happened to force the paper make a new print at midday. You can hear Bill Weasley reading some of the headlines "Wow even more Death Eaters has been sent to Azkaban! Antonin Dolohov, Harry Thernian.... Jugson... sent to Azkaban, Luisa Testudos, Walden Macnair, ...Yaxley avoids Azkaban..."

"Hey John, can you help me with something tonight?" Glenn asks you and you lose your focus on the Weasley boy.

>Yeah sure!
>Hush, grab a Prophet
>Depends on what it is
>No way man I need to study
>Other

>>42783002
>>42783084

>"What do you need?" No commitment until after.

>>42783262
>Depends on what it is

Looks like our aunt just barely avoided going to Azkaban.

>>42783262
>Depends on what it is

I get the feeling we've been so disconnected from our family stuff, we're as in the dark as muggles would be, and have no real interest in the news.

>>42783331

"Well it depends on what do you need? I need to study also you know." Glenn looks around to make sure nobody is listening. Then he whispers. "I know you can cast some spells and usually good at this kind of things...and you seem to know your way around Herbology too. I need to get some kind of plant from the Herbology class... but I don't want to deal with the Professor or anything. If you can help me I want to take it at night. I need it for my health."

>Yeah why not, I like adventures.
>I am not sure this is a good idea.
>Other

>>42783425
"Wouldn't it be smarter and easier to get a seed, instead of the plant? That way, you could just maintain it in a pot. Or somewhere on the grounds that people don't look often."

>>42783425
>I am not sure this is a good idea.

>>42783425
>"What's the plant? I mean, if it's a big deal I can talk to the professor for you."

>>42783425
>>I am not sure this is a good idea.
Unless your a werewolf or something.

"I am not sure if this is a very good idea Glenn, I mean which plant do you even need? Can't you just grow one yourself?"

Glenn whispers again looking a bit distressed. "It's called Wormwood. I don't understand from plants or anything... I don't know how to grow a plant. I just need some leaves of this plant to check something. I will probably make a tea or something."

You know that Wormwood is an ancient herb used in many potions by wizards and also by muggles. Not magical by muggles of course but it is said it can be used from medicine, many magical potions including shrinking or as an antidote for sleeping potions, to see strange dreams or even to repel fleas.

>Yeah I will help you

Char sheet question, as a pure look I think we should have a level 2 skill in something, along with the two level 1 skills we already have.

Also are you keeping track of our studying hours? because it seems our little ravenclaw will max out the very first 30 hours of every week.

>>42783597

>Yeah I will help you
Sure lets help! Our first adventure!

>>42783597
"Plants are really easy to take care of. A lot easier than a pet, for sure. Anyways, I can probably get some pretty easily if you REALLY don't want to ask the teacher for some, and we wouldn't even have to sneak in at night. I mean, sneaking in is just asking for trouble, isn't it?"
To summarize my vote: Say no to sneaking in, but you'll try to get some for him through normal means.

>>42783597
>"Well, you'll have to tell me why you can't just ask a teacher."

>>42783615

Glenn look really relieved. "Thanks John! I think we need to...otherwise how can we just enter the Herbology class and take what we want?"

Both. Ask during herbology class!

Hmm, perhaps you are correct. I don't like how that section is written.
>Pure Bloods begin play with either one extra credit in each of two skills of their choice, twoextra credits in one skill of their choice, or 4 extra galleons at character creation.

So then half bloods only get 2 skill points as well I guess.

"Glenn,I am happy to help you, but I will do so on my terms. I am going to ask for the wormwood and say it is for an experiment of my own. I will then help you brew the potion. I don't want us to get in a bind because of a paranoid auror or something."

>>42783786
>We can take it during the Herbology class
>Other
We can find a potion that uses it, and ask the teacher for some because we want extra credit in our Potions class.

We're Ravenclaws; doing extra credit stuff is practically expected of us.

>>42783786

Even muggles have access to this plant. We can probably just
>We can take it during the Herbology class

"Don't worry Glenn, we can get it easily. I will just find a potion that uses it and ask to Professor Sproud some extra credits by brewing it. Like a project. And you can use the herb while I brew the potion. Deal?" "Deal."

You enter the Charms class, the last class of the day. The head of the Ravenclaw, Professor Flitwick is leading this class. He spends half of the class chatting with the students. He says his first day impression of the first grade of Ravenclaw is good so far. He tells you "We should finally win this year!" about the House Cup.

Then he proceeds to teach you the first spell of the class. The levitation charm. Wingardium Leviosa.

After he teaches you how to cast it he asks you to try it. Says the first one to manage it will get a Golden Chocolate Card.

You try to say it correctly and point your wand to the feather in front of you like the Professor showed. "Wingardium Leviosa!" In your second try the feather slowly levitates and starts hovering. You look around to check and see that it is you who are the first. Surprisingly Valdis also manages to cast it after you and even before Anya.

Professor Flitwick smiles and gives you a card as a reward and winks. You look and a woman wearing a diadem looks proud. It reads: "Wit beyond measure is man's greatest treasure." It is Rowena Ravenclaw.

You also write to her about your first week, the people you have met with and stuff you have learned. You will send it in the morning with the owls and wait for an answer.
