IC Prospective: Vashti (1st Year) (OC)

Character: Vashti Middens
Mun: Mordrid
Plot specific: N

Hi everybody! I'm Vashti Middens, and I'm really liking it here so far. The common room is a bit crowded (and it's kind of a little overwhelming!), but I expect houses don't normally bunk together, so. Anyway.

Dad said there are trips to the village for the older students? I don't know when the next one's happening, but I was hoping to make arrangements with somebody to get some blood lollipops for me when you go there. I'm willing to pay you back for them.

That would be great, thanks!

Do you remember what first year classes are like? We've barely gotten started, and Dad couldn't remember much about them. This is very different from a muggle school. The material. I guess I'm asking how hard this stuff is.

[hairflyingheartpounding]

Not a problem!

Gosh, I'm not sure what to tell you... Mum's a witch, so I was used to a lot of it, just not actually using magic.

Dad stuck mostly to potions, so I know what to expect with that a bit, but he didn't really do much of this other stuff? I guess because we live in a muggle neighborhood.

[hairflyingheartpounding]

Oh! That's lucky; I'm really awful at potions.

Anyway, I think most of the teachers make sure everyone can handle things in first year!

[skullsandstuff]

You've got to be really exact with some things, like stirring. I can see why it could be hard. I like the way they change color and stuff in the cauldron. It's kind of fun, for me at least.

That's good. Is there a class you like?

[hairflyingheartpounding]

Yeah, that can be hard for me. I do like the colours, though.

Care of Magical Creatures is probably my favorite.

[skullsandstuff]

They can turn some really awesome colors. And sometimes they glow. I really like the potions that keep glowing when they're done. Those are the best.

Oh, neat! That sounds like a cool class. What kind of animals have you gotten to learn about?
