The dungeons smelled faintly of smoke. That is more smoke than normal. Finn was almost always brewing something, for class, for a student, for another professor, for his family. For himself. Finn actually really liked the sounds and smells of the potions. So every so often he would just brew himself something amusing, or work on improving potions. So, the dungeons were always smokey, but they were a bit more smokey recently. Finn didn't mind the smoke, but he figured most of the students would, so he set up a few wind/air charms to get rid of the bulk of the smoke.

There was an air of exhaustion around Finn. He was slightly pale with dark circles under his eyes. He felt like he hadn't slept in a week. Finn could not handle this three course work.... how the heck had it happened, anyways? He'd probably made some joke about dropping in on flying, but at least that class wasn't too often, not every week like potions, which of course, unless he and Reagan decided not to teach anymore, was his main position, but Theory... how had he gotten that one? Maybe he subbed it once.... or was being sarcastic but taken seriously, oh.... he missed Pickles. In either case, instead of sitting on the back of the chair as was his custom, he was leaning against the board, watching the students as they came in, each to sit at their own cauldron.

Zaine came in and sat on the left side of the dungeons in seat 01 of table 01. He noticed that the weather was getting cold down here, but then again he was in the dungeons what did he expect. Zaine said "hello" to the professor through the smoke of the potion he was making. He did not mind the smoke, because of the experimental drinks he would make at home with Tor, sometimes they would explode and make enough smoke to fill the house, and then he would have to leave and wait for the airing charms to kick in. Zaine did enjoy potions he liked the feeling of having created something himself, and of course he loved the effects it had on the environment and people around him.

Zaine began to study the classroom he saw that he was the only student here so far, this was good as it gave him time to think before the lesson started. He saw that the professor was looking really tired well he dose work 2 classes at least it's bound to catch up with you he thought. While waiting for other students zaine was having a daydream about flying. It was his dream to play Quiddich for the house team and maybe one day an international team, but he could not remember the last time he was on a broom and he was not sure if he was any good. With the thought of playing for England in the back of his mind Zaine took the potions book out of his bag, put it on his desk and waited for the lesson to start.

Katy walked into the Potions classroom and it was quite grim and cold as she predicted on the journey from the grand hall to the Dungeons. The temperature change was quite big from the 1st floor to the Dungeons but what could be expected. She saw 6 tables with around 4 seats on each one. She grabbed seat 3 of table 1 and saw a boy in front of her (Zaine) she had ocassionally seen in most of her classes but she hadnt gotten to know anyone really except Lia who she hoped would be coming to this lesson.

Katy was very happy about Potions as she had a lot of experience brewing them at home since her dads hobby was brewing potions and he loved to do that, only when he got time off work and her mothers life outside of being a secretary was being a gardener and a mini Herbologist in her home. In front of her desk (in front of everyones desk) was a cauldron and so she moved it a bit to the side so she could get out her textbook which she assumed they would be needing in todays lesson.

All the way down the moving staircases, Hugo was whistling some tune that he'd forgotten the name of. The echoes of the tune bounced around the walls, and he'd tried to kick the tune out of his head, but there it was, stuck forever in an endless loop. Not that he minded, he was in a good mood and the music helped him keep the momentum of his day. If he could only figure out what the name of the tune was. he caught up with Valentina on the way down the stairs, and walked with her the rest of the way to the dungeon level of the school. Then, they could catch up on their schedule for the day, and talk about what to do around dinner time.

Potions had been subdivided into lab sections, with each grouping around tables of four. Hugo went to table 3 in the 3rd and Fourth year section, and sat at seat 3 for the day's work. Professor Kelly was there, doing something with a potion already. He smiled in his general direction, but wasn't sure he could see much of the class because of the smoke. Hugo's book was soon open to the Chapters, and he thumbed down the list of potions just for readings' sake. He was trying to figure out some potions that would affect memory, but only knew one in particular. Hopefully Cerise would be here soon, for she was much better versed in potions than he was.

Anja dreaded the afternoon that day since she had to go to her potions class. She did not mind Professor Kelly now, for she knew he tried his best to help all the students. When she first started potions she used to fear her professor like the plague. Anja was just down right horrible with potions no matter how much practice she had. Now being in third year, Anja was surprised she scrapped by in potions considering she melted at least one cauldron a year. Her mother was never pleased when Anja had to send a note home for her to buy and send her another cauldron. She tried to enter each of these lessons with a positive attitude in the hopes that it would improve her potion making ever so slightly.

Upon entering the class, Anja noticed the room was divided again with first and second years on one side of a barrier and third and fourth years on the other. She spotted Hugo sitting at table three in the third and fourth year section and waved. Anja refused to look at the front of the classroom to get any indication on what they were doing for that day's lesson. She gave Hugo a quick hug and sat next to him at table 3 seat 2. Anja knew that her friends wouldn't let her down and that they would help her pass the lesson. Her main hope was that she wouldn't melt yet another cauldron.

Theodore made his way to Potions, the class he dreaded most. It was most definitely his worst subject, which was a shame because he knew it was useful. The October air began to chill the grounds and the dungeon was cooling as well; Theo felt it and pulled his robes closer against his body. The dungeon was dark as always and depressing. He couldn't help but wonder what potion he would be attempting to brew today, he was sure the product would be less than perfect. As long as he didn't end up causing an explosion he would be perfectly content with the class. He sighed as he approached the door to the Potions classroom.

He entered the room and the smokey aroma wafted into his nose, remnants of what had previously been a room covered in a thick layer of smoke. He scanned the room momentarily and saw the tired looking Professor Kelly leaning against his chalkboard, looking paler than usual. The term was apparently beginning to get to him. Theodore sat at table 2 in seat 1 behind a Gryffindor boy (Zaine Gregory) that looked about his age. He stared at the cauldron, hoping that they weren't going to be brewing anything particularly complicated in today's lesson.

If Larken thought her other classes were hard, potions was even worse. She had to be able to see in order to get the right ingredients and do what needed to be done to them. But she also knew that she couldn’t use her blindness as an excuse to herself for not going. She could summon the things she needed, use the charm that Hugo and Alan taught her, and hopefully do what needed to be done. There really needed to be more spells to help the blind. Maybe she could ask Professor Kelly if he knew of any. He was a smart man after all. It didn’t matter at the moment since it would have to wait until after class was over.

Silently making her way into the room, she carefully made her way to the third and fourth side of the room. After all these years, she had a pretty good idea of where to go, so she quickly sat down at table 5 and in seat 4 before she sighed. She just wasn’t feeling classes these days. They got harder and harder for her as the year went on and she struggled more and more. Even with Alan and his friends trying to help her out. It wasn’t their fault that most of their assignments were hands on. Propping her head up in her hand, she silently listened to the conversations going on around her.
