User Name: LilyEvansDouble
Teacher name: Emily Anne Wixom
House: Ravenclaw
Year: 2nd year teacher
Age: 19
Description: Emily is a muggle born with a wand is 15 inches of willow with a pheonix feather inside.
History: Emily’s mother was an only child but had always wished she had siblings. Growing up she was very smart and caring and that is how she met her husband. Emily’s father met his wife when he needed a tutor so he could pass Math, and Spanish to keep from getting suspended from the baseball team. The two hooked up and soon got married. Emily’s father had been from a larger family and loved it. When his wife got pregnant with Emily he took very good care of his wife, so much that she started going crazy from lack of things to do. After the baby was born they learned fast that Emily was a very bright and as she grew older she excelled in school. When the younger 5 were born Emily also stepped up and took responsibility to help care for them, but everyone knew that she was special in more than just that. The speed with which she progressed, her ability to do things non-human, and the ability to do things others could at a much better ability.
Emily was closest to her father and the two were nearly inseperateable. Anyone that knew Emily knew that she was her father’s favorite. It was this way until the January she turned 11. Emily and her father were riding in the car and were in a terrible car crash. Her father was killed instantly trying to cover Emily, and had to be cut out of the car before being life lighted to the hospital. Emily once again displayed her special ability and made a remarkable recovery that the doctors couldn’t explain. When she was sent home it was to find her mother a wreck and Emily couldn’t feel the sorrow she felt at losing her best because she had to step up and care for her 5 brothers since because her mother was in deep depression refusing to do anything. The rest of the school year and that summer Emily spent her time caring for her family and trying to help her mother cope while shoving her pain deep down. It was the middle of July when she finally broke under all the pressure. She yelled and cried all day and her mother finally realized what she was doing to her family, especially her daughter. The very next day Emily received her letter from Hogwarts explaining why she had always been so different. At first Emily decided that she couldn’t go but her mother told her that she needed to go back to being a kid and that it would be a good way to get her mind off things and intermingle with kids her own age with her abilities.
As Emily arrived at the school she was fascinated with the world around her. When she tried the sorting hat on she was immediately sorted into Ravenclaw and it wasn’t long before she was top of her class. Emily befriended students of every year and every house and always kept perfect marks. She played Seeker for the Ravenclaw Quidditch team but on the ground she has no coordination. In her 5th year she was selected for the Female Ravenclaw Prefect and her 7th year she shined as the Head Girl unaccompanied by a Head Boy. This year was another traumatic experience as Head Mistress Caroline Walker was killed by the 6th year Female Slytherin Prefect Alyssa. She was the only one to see it except her friend Angela Yelsah who is a death seer, and that summer her cousin made sure that her memory was erased. Emily also had a battle of knowledge with the brilliant Auror Jonathan Yelsah that year though she had no idea until much later. Emily then accepted a position as the Charms teacher from the new Head Master Conan Dasklin, as well as another traumatizing experience as the domestic Charms teacher though she was only 18. She took the position of teaching kids she had been good friends with just the year before and helped some of them cope with the traumatic year before when Angela Yelsah’s memory came back and Alyssa remembered that she had killed the Head Mistress. Her youngest brother also started Hogwarts last year, and he is the only other one in her family with magical talent. Joshua has always been more adventuraous than Emily and while he is there she has an extra responsibility to make sure he doesn’t blow up anything. Now she is returning for her second year as a Hogwarts Professor and is proud to be working among a wonderful crew. She sends the money she makes from teaching home to her family since after her fathers death the family grew fairly poor and gave up a lot just to send her to school. Now she put’s Josh through school and sends home a lot of the rest to help her other brothers and mother. She does not plan on teaching domestic charms this time around though.
Personality: Emily is a complete space cadet. She just graduated Hogwarts 2 years ago, so many of the students still know her and she is friends with everyone. Emily doesn't hold grudges because she believes that hate is a learned behavior and one she refuses to learn, but she does get angry and when she is angry you had better watch out. She knows how to lead since she has spent the past 8 and a half years being the second parent to 5 boys while hiding her own feelings. Safety is one of her biggest rules and she is very serious when it comes to it because of her responsibility of being the oldest child and then her father’s death. Emily is usually laughing, but knows how to take her position as teacher and head of house seriously. Her favorite thing is to tease Dasklin, but she always knows when to draw the line. Emily also takes orders from Dasklin alone though she will respect others opinions and admires John Yelsah. She takes her position of Head of Ravenclaw house very serious and expects her Ravenclaws to follow a very high standard.
Pet: She has a snowy owl with black tipped wings named Alice, and a pure bread Siamese cat named Jasmine.
Position: Emily is the Charms and Domestic Charms teacher, as well as the Head of Ravenclaw.

Welcome to a new year. First I want to knock out some rules that I expect to be followed no matter what year or house you belong to because you are all students and I don't play favorites.
Respect:
As long as you respect me and the other people in my class I'm very content. I believe that respect goes a long way and we will not get very far with bad attitudes. If your respect slips towards either me or a classmate in my presence at all I will correct you and the next time you will trade 5 house points for a detention. I have better things to do than take attitude from teenagers.
Talking:
Please do not talk during my lectures. I give you plenty of time for chatter while you are practicing and I hope that you will take what I say seriously because I am the Professor and can help you out a lot. If you are speaking during my lecture I will stop until I have gotten your attention and then remind you about my respect rule. If it happens again I'll stop my lecture and write you a detention slip dismissing you to your Head of House and taking 5 house points because I don't need you disturbing the rest of my class. If you are in my House you will get the privelege of sitting right next to my desk doing absolutely nothing until the end of class at which time I will speak to you.
Passing Notes:
DON'T do it. The only time you would have to pass notes is during my lectures and I won't stand for it. It is very rude and I have a quick eye. I have cared for 5 boys since I turned 11 and they have tried just about everything. By now many of you will know my younger brother James and if I can keep up with him I can keep up with you passing notes. If I see you passing notes I will take it and read it to the class. If it is offensive to anyone everyone that had anything to do with the note will trade 5 house points for a night of detention. The second time I take a note I don't care what's on it, EVERYONE that had ANYTHING to do with the note will trade 5 house points for a night of detention to double if it's offensive when I read it to the class. All students involved with the note will also be dismissed to their Head of House and Ravenclaw's will sit quietly next to my desk doing nothing the rest of the period.
Wands:
The ONLY spells you are to use are those I have told you to. If I have not told you to do magic or a certain spell and I see it you can bet that you will IMMEDIATELY find yourself stunned with a week of detention, 20 points from your house, a confiscated wand that you can pick up AT THE END OF THE DAY from your Head of House, and a dismissal from my class for the day. I WILL NOT stand for unsupervised magic because it's a safety hazard and something I refuse to condone.
Fighting:
Fighting will gain the same punishment as if you had fired spells without my permission even if it's muggle fist fighting. It's something I WILL NOT condone and you can guarantee that your Head of House will have a visit from me before you can say oops. Once again you will be without your wand for the day, you will be dismissed from my class, and you will trade 20 house points for a week of detention. This goes for ANYTIME I have to break up a fight and this punishment will be handed out to EVERYONE involved. Even if you are trying to stop it. If you are on the grounds and caught fighting everyone around will get the punishment for not running for a staff. This goes even for you Prefects and Head Boy and Girl. My 7th year at Hogwarts I was stopping a fight on the quidditch field and punished with the others when Dasklin showed up though I hadn't yet done a thing and I was Head Girl so I know the Headmaster will back me up on this.
Homework and Tests:
Homework will only be given if you are not catching on and I believe you need further practice or the class manages to piss me off and I give written work. If in the event this happens I WILL expect it to be handed in at the START of the next class. Any late homework will receive a 0 and you will lose 5 house points and make up for it with a detention. Tests will be given randomly and they won't be big but I expect you to work on your own and do your best.
Tutoring
If you feel you need extra help feel free to stop at my office during either of my free periods, or before or after classes. I make no promises that I'll be there ALL the time because I do like to explore and need breaks but I will do my best to help you if you tell me in advance. If you don't tell me in advance then you'll just have to chance it.
Foul Language:
I don't hold with foul language and if I hear it it's a violation of my respect rule. This one doesn't leave you with a warning though so you had better watch it. That's how serious I am about the language you use. You will immediately lose 5 house points and I'll see you for detention.
Detention:
As you have probably guessed... I don't hesitate to give out detention and each time you gain detention you lose house points. Don't think detention with me will be fun. You have wasted my time and while you are in detention it's my chance to waste yours. You will therefore do anything that pops into my head from helping me with papers the DON'T concern your year, to scrubbing my office clean. I guess it also depends on how bad you piss me off. When you show up for detention I expect you to have to slip I gave you signed by your Head of House or I will not accept you and it will go down as a skipped detention. You also must be on time for detention. I'm usually lenient about timing but detention is where I'm strict because it's when you've sacrificed all your time to me. If you are even a minute late I will not accept you and it will go down as a skipped detention. Any skipped detention will gain full punishment with a loss of 20 house points, and the one night of detention turns into one week. I advise against it.
Tardies and Absences:
Except for during detention I'm pretty lenient with tardies. That does not mean that I condone it so listen carefully and we may get through this. If you are no more than 10 minutes late you will be fine even without a note. If are past 10 minutes though I expect a note or you will trade 5 house points for a detention. I also don't want you coming in late all the time. You are permitted to be late 2 days in 5. The third time you are late without excuse will cost you a night of detention and 5 house points. As for absences I expect you to be in my class. If you miss and you don't have a note from either the Head Master, your Head of House, the nurse, or 2 valid witnesses that your excuse is legitimate and good you will be given detention and lose 5 house points. Your two witnesses MUST be from outside of the class you are skipping.
I believe that wraps it up so I hope you all have fun and I look forward to another wonderful year.

He sat down in the row infront of her, taking his bag off his shoulder and placing it onto the floor beside him. Crossing his legs, he sat sideways in his seat as he flicked the blonde hair from his eyes boredly. At least he was early rather than late. He didn't want to be the one to make his house lose points for such a silly reason.

{ angela ღ к я ι s т α ღ yelsah }  So far there were very few students in the classroom and no sign of Emily anywhere. The only students that were present in the classroom were all in Slytherin. Angel still found it hard to believe that the first students to arrive are usually Slytherin when for a while it seemed like that house didn't really care. Apparently they're trying to end that streak. Walking in with Nathaniel, Angel firmly held his hand and walked inside enough for the both of them to see where they could sit. "So where do you want to sit, hun?" she asked, adjusting the strap of her book bag as it was sliding down her shoulder. For a first day of school, she sure did carry a lot of supplies and books with her. While waiting for her boyfriend's response, Angel's eyes found themselves staring at the promise ring that Nathaniel had given her during his surprise trip to Paris during the summer. It was still so beautiful to her and all the more harder to believe that she's wearing it.

Nathaniel blinked. The fact that Emily wasn't in class yet was a little unusual, but he just assumed that she was busy with something to do since she was deputy headmistress right now. Looking around, he saw a few empty seats towards the far corner of the class. "Hm...Shall we go over there?" He asked as he gently took her bookbag off of her shoulder and switched it to his. He should have grabbed it before the left the Great Hall, but the idea had slipped his mind.
Alexander sighed as he walked into Charms...It was his first class of his first day at Hogwarts, and he was nervous. He had been so nervous, he skipped out on breakfast and opted for coming straight to class. He actually had hidden in the first floor bathroom and had to give himself a pep talk in order to emerge as the confident person that he always tried to portray himself to be. After he walked in, he saw two people that seemed to be in his house, based on the colors of their robes. He also saw a couple who had walked into the room with yellow and gold...which must have signified that they were in Hufflepuff. Sighing, he took a seat next to the Slytherin boy, setting his backpack down before he turned to look at both of them. "Hi. My name's Alexander. I'm new. How's it going?" He asked with a smile.

Dez imitated puking when Angel and Nate walked in.She remembered then from last year and it was a bit disgusting to her how they were so open about their relationship.She gave a nod of recognition to the two boys."Dez,"She told them, giving a small salute.

{ angela ღ к я ι s т α ღ yelsah } Looking up, Angel followed Nathaniel's gaze over towards the seats at the far corner and nodded. She allowed him to take her bag, just because she was too tired this morning to think about arguing. Either way he was going to win, he usually did. As she walked to the seats, her eyes fell on Dezire and she sighed. "Still disgusted with love, Violet?" she asked the girl. Angel didn't really want to start anything this early morning, but she just didn't know what was the big deal with Dezire and her digust for love. Although she didn't know how that girl reacted when around her brother and Kat, but still. It made Angel wonder if that girl even wanted to have someone of her own. It must be lonely being Dez. But Angel didn't think too much about it and took a seat at the partner tables.

"Still desperate to get any guy into your pants?"Dez mumbled as she pulled out her books from her bag.Why does Angel even bother?Last year wasn't her fight with Angel, it was with Olivia and she's gone so Angel could just go back to being her regular shy self that didn't talk to anyone she didn't talk to.Dez hated when people worried about her, to her it was like they were telling her she was too weak to look after herself.

●●●hisshisshisshisshisshisshisshissӍҶζҾϨhissкєєηαηhisshisshiss♛hissMyles looked up as he heard someone sit beside him. It was a boy who looked to be around the same age as him, hence why he would be in this class. He looked at the others' smile and gave a shy one in return. "I'm Myles. . . and okay, I guess. How are you finding it here so far. .?" He asked in one breath, adjusting his glasses. He then looked to the girl behind him once she had said her name and gave another small smile. He hadn't realized she was in the same house as him before.
He then focused his attention on the small argument going on, shaking his head. Girls were so petty sometimes, but then again, he could be to. He decided to stay out of it, though.

{ angela ღ к я ι s т α ღ yelsah } At Dezire's mumbled statement, Angel turned in her seat to look at her. The classroom was small enough to here uttered words, there wasn't that many students after all. She wasn't going to start a fight like she told herself. But she wasn't going to let that statement go unnoticed. She wasn't a slut like that one girl that she had gotten into a fight with last year. "Why would I be desperate when I already have someone all to myself that can get into my pants all he wants?" she said in a monotone then turned forward. If Dezire responded, that was her business. Running a hand through her curls, Angel wondered when Emily would come. At least then Angel would have no real reason to get into a more larger argument with Dezire. In truth, Angel had no reason to dislike the Slytherin girl. Sure, she had gotten into a fight with her best friend's girlfriend. But that was last year. And the rest of the year Dezire hadn't done anything to her, not that she knows of at least. With a sigh, Angel decided that if Dezire were to respond, then it would just go unnoticed.

Breathlessly, Lenore burst through the door, terrified that she had been late. She had run all the way from her dorm, having slept in after being up late looking over her textbooks. Swiping a stray curl from her face, she dropped blindly into a seat in the second row from the back and put her head on top of her bag. This whole 'no sleep' thing is not the best idea... After a few minutes of practically-drunken stupor, she raised her head up to see who she had landed beside. It was a near-albino looking sort of boy with cutely humongous glasses. He was cute, if not a little awkward.
