Cerise Aimee BenoitCerise was purposefully late. She was in her office, sipping her cup of tea, with a copy of the Daily Prophet having just arrived. There, was the headline, which made her smile. Hogwarts losing teachers left and right: why now? It was the beginning of the story. The one she was going to tell while teaching here. It was a prime career opportunity. She flipped a page, dousing her lips with another sip of her tea, reading through the articles. She glanced at the time, deciding to stay a little bit longer; she wanted to see how her new class would behave on its first day alone. One could say she was excited about this new path, and that would only be true if she was successful. In converting Hogwarts students into possible proper witches and wizards. She’d heard their noise throughout the halls. It was purely disgusting. But she felt she could succeed, if not only with her students at teaching them manners.
Within her classroom, adjacent to her office sat a cat. Its breed was an ocicat, giving it a feral, wild look though it was quite tamed. It was perfectly groomed, and barely moved, excluding the occasional flick of its tail. Its eyes watched as each student enter and take a seat before glancing toward the next student. The classroom was quiet, and it was obvious the new teacher was no where nearby.Charms Professor

Amelia Frances
 With quiet steps, Amelia entered the classroom. Immediately she felt the classroom was empty except for an adorable cat sitting on a stool in the front of the room. His eyes were locked on hers, making her smile. She stepped toward him, and he raised his head dignified, as if to remind her he was on duty. Frowning, she made her way to a desk, muttering loud enough for the cat to hear, "I bet you'd still like a scratch behind the ears." That was one thing she missed. Animals. Sure, there were what Professor Kalle brought to class in Care of Magical Creatures, but Amelia missed snuggling with her dog Maggie. She was an excellent pillow. As she took out her supplies for the class, Amelia wondered absentmindedly why dogs weren't allowed to come to Hogwarts.

Liviana burst through the doors of the charms classroom, seeing, yet still surprised to see, a cat sitting where the new charms teacher should be. She proceeded in cautiously. She had heard of other professors who were animagi spying on their classes in their animal forms...there was no way of knowing if that were the cas now. There were two other new teachers, and possibly more on the way. It was odd to see an adult in the charms classroom for once...but would it last? There had always been the rumor that the Defense Against the Dark Arts post was cursed, but maybe the curse had moved on to the other classed too!
Liviana took a seat right next to the only other person in the classroom, Ammy. She was glad to have a friend with her.

Amelia smiled. Liviana always seemed to be a rush. The smile grew into a grin when she sat beside her. Sure, she would have been awkward to sit on the opposite side of the room, whether she liked her or not, but to sit beside her definitely meant she considered her a friend. She shifted her stuff, making space for her before greeting her with a whispered, "Hey," Amelia had never heard of Animagus in her life, she just didn't want to disturb the quiet blanket that seemed to have settled over the room.

As Liviana settled into her seat, Ammy whispered in greeting to her. "Hi," Liviana breathed back, glancing at the cat/possible professor as it eyed them warily. "Excited to actually learn something in this class?" she asked jokingly.

 Harmony Trumarie...
Harmony enter the classroom with her schoolbag slung over her arm. Her ink black hair was pulled in two braided buns on each side of her head. The girl made her way gracefully to a seat, one across the room from the two Ravenclaws and the kitty-cat. Upon placing her bag down, grey eyes darted around the room observing the changes made to it. 'I don't like this classroom anymore...' She thought, eyes now focused on the window behind the professor's desk. 'I always disliked Charm class, but I wonder if the new professor just going enforce that feeling or not...'

"Cute." she said, going up to the cat on the desk. "Hey Amelia." She said, smiling. Carefully, she put her hand out, letting the cat smelling her, then stroked the cat's back. "Fluffy." ╚══════════════════════════════════════════════╝

Being a cat, for a moment it merely enjoyed the petting, releasing a adorable purr. Jerking, he straightened, sniffing haughtily and turning away from Lily. He had a job to do, and nothing was going to distract him. Though he'd probably end up in Lily's lap by the end of the class.

Amelia Frances
Amelia greeted Lily back, taking it as a sign she wasn't mad at her. Amelia had these plans when she felt those weird feelings at the library...they just didn't work out. Turning back to Liviana, she nodded gravely. She hadn't actually learned anything in the last Charms class. The three spells she had missed, she taught herself.

Amelia nodded, "She has a lot of catching up to do." She was excited for the class, and she hoped it would mean a lot of work. She needed to learn everything she could. For when she told her father she was a witch, she was sure he'd expect her to be a hell of a good one.

(( Thanks for the wonderful gift, Liv~ ^^ <3 ))
Meiko came in the room, in a sober expression and smiled at the professor. She took a seat beside Amelia and quietly smiled at them before looking at the other way with her head in the clouds.

Without any particular prior indication, the cat turned slowly towards the rear door, as if conducting the rest of the class to do the same. Within seconds, the door opened, slowly revealing a tall woman wearing a black dress suit. It fit properly, obviously tailored to her tall, curvy frame. She could easily be counted as beautiful, if there wasn’t the touch of hardness to her perfection. Everything was right, from her long French tipped nails to the black shine on her stilettos. Her brown hair was pulled back into a bun, rather large, as it held a great deal of hair, but still perfectly shaped.
She crossed the room, with her heels clicking on the hard floors, to her cat. Running a hand down her back, she watched the feline glance from one student on the opposite side of the room and another, the silent girl who was watching the clouds. In a sharp voice she announced, ”Five points to both Slytherin and Ravenclaw. And mademoiselle? I’m sure ze weather won’t be bothering us right now; eet ees teeme to start class,” her sarcastic tone scowled Meiko in the same sentence of praising her. She shooed her cat away, who hopped off the stool and went straight to Lily’s lap, taking the seat herself. With a far superior sniff, she glanced around the class. ”To begin, 'ake out a piece of parchment and write your name wiz an interesting fact about yourself.” With exasperation in her voice she added, ”Don’t let eet be your house or year, I’m perfectly capable of figuring those out myself.”
She stood as she watched the papers come out, quills starting. ”As we wait, I want one of you to tell me what spells your last Charms teacher, Professor Farmer, I believe? Taught each of the years.” Pointing to Lily, she motioned for her to stand, ”You, inform us what Professor Farmer taught ze individual years?” Telling the entire class, she snapped, ”You will stand while addressing me. In this class you will learn to behave like proper ladies as well as to master Charms.”

The teacher scowled, snapping, "I suppose you just took this time as a free time?" With a sniff, she turned to ignore her, though she wondered why Olivia, her cat, had decided to greet her. Probably was something to do with petting. She after all was only a cat. Looking around to the rest of the class, she maintained her composure though it was difficult. "Did anyone come to class and learn anything so far in Charms?" There were so few students. Cerise was amazed. Perhaps they were late? It was after all the first day. She'd speak with the Headmistress about the matter later.
