This lesson would be far more interesting than the previous, however for the misfortune of the students, Professor Styx was in a horrible mood. One could tell if they looked in his eyes and saw the fury, and that his arms were crossed, and looked very rigid. He was staring at the doors right now, as they opened to let the students in. Once they were all seated, the doors slammed shut, and Professor Styx forced all the thoughts he had except over the lesson aside as he did not need to have body bags on the side of his classroom if one student spoke out of term. Professor Styx was extremely controlled, and he had to be to keep his cover. Professor Styx said icily, "This lesson will be short for you, so count your blessings." Professor Styx knew that they would need to get as much information crammed into their tiny minds before the OWLs if they hoped to pass. "The OWLs are almost here and you need more time to study and less time to learn everything in as they are around the corner." Pausing for a moment to get a deep breath, Professor Styx continued on with the brief lesson, "Today, we are discussing the Flagrante Curse." Looking over the students, he could see who knew the effects and those that did not. "The curse is known to burn whomever touches the object that it is cast on. This curse has been known to occasionally be used on valuable items in Gringotts vaults. This is likely one of the few curses we've studied that a simple 'finite' will not reverse, otherwise it would prove pointless, expecially at Gringotts." Professor Styx looked over the class, and he knew that he was done explaining the curse, but he did keep his promise to make sure the lesson was brief, and it was. "Essay over this curse, and have it turned in by the time your next lesson begins. Dismissed," ordered Professor Styx as the doors opened to allow the students to leave. Assignment: Roleplay the lesson and do the homework assigned.Defence Against the Dark Arts,5,5 |

As soon as Vincent Della-Robbia walked into the room, he knew that his Head of House was in a bad mood. He needed to be on his best behavior today because Professor Styx was extremely strict on the students in his own house. The boy took a seat in the back and got out his materials for notes. He was pleased when it was announced that the lesson was going to be short. Vincent preferred to not spend all day in classes. OWLs were a major stressor right now, and Vinny did not really want to have to deal with them. However, he needed to in order to focus on the task at hand, which was this class. Vinny was surprised that they were going over the Flagrante Curse. The effects of such a curse was not fun, and he knew that his father used the curse on his vault in Gringotts. The explanation of the curse was so brief that he found himself packing up as soon as it finished. Since Styx was in such a bad mood, he quickly left the classroom as soon as dismissal was permitted. |

Rama was one of the last people to walk into class. She took a seat in the back and took out her notes. If she planned on being anything in life, she was going to need to get good grades in this course. She could tell that Professor Styx was in a bad mood, so she was going to make sure to keep her mouth closed today. She did not want to die just yet. The class was a simple lecture, as stated by the professor. The Flagrante Curse. Of course Rama knew what to curse was. It was complex and not easy to get rid of. She could not remember exactly, but she thought Harry Potter had run in with such a curse. Rama scribbled down small notes, as there was not much that she did not know about the curse. She was going to freshen up her knowledge about the curse after class, which was dismissed after she had that exact thought. She quickly back up her stuff and left the classroom. |

Even though Amber was feeling more relaxed and happy this semester, her stress was mounting slightly as the semester came to end slowly. For the first time she had no exams at the end of the semester, as the OWLs wouldn't come until the end of the year, but she still felt stressed. Especially because the OWLs were so very important for her future. They were way more impactful than the normal exams. As she headed into Defence Against the Dark Arts, she got the feeling Professor Styx was even grumpier than normal. She quietly took her seat, waiting for th elesson to begin. She was glad that it would be a short one, though her stomach lurched as he reminded the class of the upcoming OWLs that were around the corner. The curse they were covering today was the Flagrante Curse, one that sounded awful. It would be rather horrible to touch a harmless looking object and be burned by it, and she could easily imagine it being used for evil. Though its use inGringotts made sense to her as well. She took a few notes on the curse, most importantly that a simple 'finite' wouldn't reverse this spell. Then she noted down that the homework was to write an essay about the curse, and left the classroom.

[justify]For some reason professor styx's demeanor was furthermore dark than usual that day and it was the first thing Flavio noticed as he arrived to his defence against the dark arts class. Though he ignored it to focus on the lesson, not wanting to be distracted from what he was learning nor risk the wrath of the professor's mood. Flavio was actually relieved the lesson was going to be short and wrote down everything once the professor began explaining the flagrante curse. At least there was a reason the flagrante curse was considered to be a curse unlike the curses he learned about in his previous defence against the dark arts lesson that still had him confused to that day. Flavio wrote down that the curse is often used in gringotts, and that it cannot be reversed with 'finite'. He was tempted to raise his hand and ask what could be done to reverse the spell, but he refrained from doing so, thinking that the professors mood might worsen if he spoke up and that the class had probably not been told how to reverse it for a reason. So instead, Flavio continued to write, and noted down the homework task which was an essay on the flagrante curse. It was then that the class was dismissed and Flavio packed up his belongings, hastily leaving the room and heading to the library so he did not spend a minute too long around professor styx. He spent the rest of his day studying yet again, and attempted to complete the assigned homework to the best of his ability considering the workload he had in his other classes. [/justify] |
