Professor Styx had entered his darkened classroom to see that he was right on time and all of the fifth years were already seated and ready for the lesson. Making sure that no one was here late, Profesosr Styx closed the doors with magic and he addressed the classroom with curses that he was sure that they would know about at this point, "We are discussing two curses, and why these curses are labelled as such and not mere jinxes. However the debate between the two being labeled as such are widely disputed as of right now." The chalkboard seemed to have a life of its own now, as it started to write down what he was going to be saying, just waiting on the key words. Professor Styx paused as he faced the class with his arms crossed over his chest. "You'll be required to recollect the Jelly Legs Jinx from second year for this lesson, and once you have that in your mind, think about these two new curses; the Jelly-Fingers curse and the Sponge-Knees curse. The effects are rather obvious, as one causes the victim's fingers to become like jelly, and they are unable to grasp anything while the other causes the knees to become sponge-like and prohibit walking." The chalk barely kept up with how fast Professor Styx spoke to the class. Now this was more like an opinionated class once again with why this would be a curse and not a jinx. He decided to know what the class thought on what they would think on this debate. "Now, why are these two curses be considered more of a curse than a jinx wheras the Jelly-Legs Jinx is not considered a curse at all?" Professor Styx noticed that many students rose their hands. Professor Styx himself did not care, and he did not have an opinion on these matters. Once he had called on two people who had shared their answers, Professor Styx nodded slightly to ensure that he too was listening to their opinions. Professor Styx said simply, "The theories are in speculation right now, and the clearly defined as either jinxes or curses but everybody seems to have different ideas as to why. I don't have my own theory about the two, as I simply just don't mind either way, a spell is a spell, and the effects are the same." Professor Styx shrugged lightly as he did not really care on how the Ministry applied things. It was as it was, and he did not care for the subject at all. "Your homework is studying for your OWLs. Dismissed." Professor Styx returned to his desk and the doors opened to free the students to do what they willed today. Assignment: Roleplay the lesson. First two posters answer the question.Defence Against the Dark Arts,5,4 |
