'Thoughts and spells'
Ed and Chris entered their classroom and started going over their notes as students entered and sat down. As Chris picked up the class roster, she nudged Ed lightly with her elbow and pointed towards a certain group of students they knew all too well. The golden trio, Harry Potter, Ron Weasly, and Hermione Granger were seated as close to the front of the room as they dared, Ginny sitting down next to Hermione and Neville sitting behind her. The five Gryffindors were excited yet nervous at the same time, and while they did have class with the Slytherins, there were also a few Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs.
Their first class of the day and already they were less annoyed, and for the fun of it, introduced themselves in a happy-go-lucky attitude "Morning guys! My name is Edward Elric, though call me Ed, and skip the professor nonsense." "Hey! I'm Christine Mousy, but call me Chris, I'm also not one for formalities." They said and the class remained quiet. Ed and Chris inwardly sighed and went on with their plans for the day "Alright, well, to start off, we aren't doing anything like notes or anything of sort today. So today is really a fun day." Chris started as Ed walked over to his desk and picked up a pile of parchment, handing one to everyone, who looked t it curiously.
"Draw a circle with a simple yet distinct design that describes you on the inside. Do whatever you want, no one is going to see them besides you and the two of us. Have fun with it. That's all you have to do for now." Ed explained as the class whispered and shrugged before happily taking out their quills and inkwells and drawing, seeming to at least be interested. A Ravenclaw raised her hand quietly and Chris nodded at her to continue "Are we going to be learning any alchemy today?" She asked curiously "Well, not today. Today is a more relax and have fun day. We'll start teaching you tomorrow. Is that alright?" Chris and Ed asked at he same time as the students merely nodded their heads enthusiastically and continued to draw their circles and chatted animatedly with each other.
So far alchemy and martial arts was their favorite class, along with transfiguration. It had only been a few hours and they were already wishing that they didn't have Defense Against the Dark Arts this year, especially if their professor was Delores Umbridge, a ministry witch who had no intention of teaching them a thing. Harry had gotten a detention for speaking the truth about Voldemort coming back and Cederic's death that he was almost happy to be going to potions with Professor Snape, with some much appreciated guests.
Ed and Chris had walked in after the class had sat down and announced that they were going to borrow a few items for the animation spell, to which Professor Snape grudgingly (and secretly curious) agreed, pointing out the needed ingredients for the spell as he forced the class to take notes since they weren't paying attention at all and assigned two rolls of parchment on the properties and uses of moonstone. Before the class had even begun to make their potions, the two new professors had done so within five minutes, secretly impressing the potions teacher as he maintained his usual scowl and mask of indifference. Long after the two professors had left the potions classroom the students had talked furiously as they worked, Snape ignoring their chatter as he observed the work intentl
