The classroom is big, surrounded by high windows, has four rows of three desks, and still has enough room for several cages and bookshelves, two chalkboards, and a desk for the Professor. Several candlesticks stand lit behind the desk.
Current Assignment: Successfully use Cortinam cribrum to turn a cauldron into a sieve. You can practice away from class and will be graded when you show Professor Papers what you can do. Extra points will be given if you can also change it back and/or explain how this spell can be useful.
Students in this Class:
Timothy Melody
Nimue Barker
Katie Hull
Dawn Sterling
Kayleigh Lipy Sigma

Professor Eric Papers Sometimes I get confused on whether I'm a free bird...
He rubbed his forehead thoughtfully. What has gotten into her? The professor wondered. He meant Miss Woodrynth, of course. Eric had noticed that she was walking around a lot more and interfering a lot more than usual Maybe she got a bit more free time? He sighed and looked at the tests she'd shoved under his nose. You'd better complete them all! I don't know about you, but I'm starting to feel a nice change in the air. She'd smiled and vanished, maybe back to her office. How should he know? He just hoped he do something else that was equally important instead of test marking.
Or a trapped professor.

Telia skipped up to the door of the Trnafiguration room and knocked on the door. "I hope he's not too busy," she said to herself as she pushed the door open. "After all, it's five o'clock, our usual private session time." She stepped inside the door and looked around, her eyes moving to the professor. "Are you busy sir? If you are, I can come back another time."

He jumped up, sending his paperwork everywhere. "No don't! Don't leave me with this damn paperwork!" The professor walked around his desk and dropped to his knees, picking the sheets up and carefully placing them in a strange order that only he understood. He scowled as he looked at his messy desk. "I'm such a clutz."
Or a trapped professor.

Telia giggled and covered her mouth with her hand. "You're so weird Professor Papers!" She turned to close the door, then skipped over to his desk, pulling out her chair as usual to sit across from him. "Well then, if you aren't busy, would you like to have a private lesson?" She looked over the papers strewn all over the desk. "What are you working on sir? It looks like way more than your usual paper load." She sat forward in her chair and put her elbows on the desk and her chin on her hands.

He sighed, dumping it into the middle of his desk and stretching up "Miss Woodrynth just gave me a bunch of tests. I think she's inhaled too much ink, she's in a very up-beat mood." He stood in front of Telia and pointed at her. "Right, we're nearly there, I think. Don't say anything and don't use your wand, think of your happiest moment and try to cast a patronus. Or is that too much, do you think?" he asked uncertainly.
Or a trapped professor.

Telia put her hands on her hips and cocked an eyebrow. "C'mon Professor! Is something wrong today? You never second-guess yourself!" She pulled her wan out of her pocket and put it on a desk behind her, then turned, taking a deep breath as she did. She grabbed onto her happiest thought and pushed her magic, screaming the spell inside her head until a thick mist poured out of her wrists and fell to the ground, solidifying into a husky on the ground. It ran in a circle around Telia, growling at the professor before racing out the window and disappearing. Telia fell to the ground on her hands and knees, breathing heavily but grinning widely. "How was...that, sir?" she landed out, looking up at him.

He put a few fingers over his mouth as he thought, staring at her in the eye. After awhile he finally brought them away and leveled his shoulders. "It's good for your age, but you're still too weak to pull the main spell off." He thrummed his fingers on his desk as he leant back on it. "Have you been practising?"

Telia's mouth went from a wide smile to a frown when Professor Papers told her she was weak. She knew she shouldn't let it get to her, but she couldn't get past the fact that she had been working so hard and yet the spell still caused her to almost black out. Almost missing the question, she looked up as comprehension dawned in her eyes, although the frustration remained in her eyes as well. "Of course...sir," she said, her tone a tad bit icier than usual. As soon as the question was answered, she looked away as angry, frustrated tears began to well in her eyes and prickle in her tear ducts.

He double turned as he was about to open a book on the subject, when he noticed her eyes tear up. "Telia, please don't say you're about to cry! What's wrong?" he hovered around her uncertainly, not knowing what to do with a sad student. "I'm terrible with sad people, I don't know how to cheer them up!" he gasped quietly and shifted to an eagle, then hopped over to her and twitched his head sideways. Then he wiggled his tail feathers and attempted a cartwheel in his bird form, only to find that his wings couldn't hold him up and he slipped, falling unelegantly on his side. He stuck his tongue out and played dead, pushing his wings out dramatically.
Or a trapped professor.

Telia quickly wiped the back of her hand across her eyes and laughed a little bit as Professor Papers tried to cheer her up. When he finished, his wings flung out dramatically, Telia smiled and shook her head. "I won't cry, I promise, sir. I'm just frustrated with myself. I practice all the time but it doesn't seem like I'm getting any better. I'm sorry if you took that as me being a baby." She stood and brushed the dirt of her knees, her breath restored. "Shall we try it again sir?"

He flapped back to his front un-elegantly and flew over to his desk. When he shifted, he was sitting on his desk, thrumming his fingers in thought. She definitely has a happy memory, but she gets so weak after she's done the spell. I guess that's all I'm worried about. What is she transforms herself and doesn't have enough energy to go back? He smiled and pushed himself off of his desk. "Ok, then, do it again."

Telia set her feet, putting her weight evenly between the heels and the balls, feet spread shoulder width apart. She took a quick inventory check of her energy: a little depleted, but it shouldn't be a problem. She took a deep breath and filled her head with the memory of Professor Papers finally agreeing to teach her how to be an Animagus. It flowed to every part of her body and filled Telia with a warm feeling. When the feeling was hot, she screamed the spell in her mind. Almost instantly, the mist flowed out of her wrists and shaped itself into the familiar husky. It looked around, searching the area for danger. Finding none, it looked at the professor for a moment before howling and running out the window. Telia's legs were shaking and her breath was hard but, by sheer willpower alone, she remained standing. "I...did it...sir," she panted. "How...am I...doing now?"

He hesitated as he thought he saw something in her eyes. He smiled and walked over to her, then patted her on the shoulder "A few more days and I think you could be ready." he told her "If you keep progress like that up, anyway!" he chuckled, but stopped for a moment and touched her forehead. "Are you ok?" he asked uncertainly.

Telia looked slowly up at Professor Papers, eyes slightly glazed over. She realized that he had asked her a question and she shook herself slightly. "Yes sir," she said quietly. "Let's go again." She closed her eyes and tried to cast the spell, but nothing happened. She tried again, screaming the spell, seizing her happy memory, but the small husky refused to appear...there wasn't even a mist to cover herself. Her legs started to shake and her vision started to go fuzzy when Telia finally stopped. She looked up at the professor. "I don't think I can do it again right now."
