INTRODUCTION[/u] Group #1: Ravenclaw Sixth & Seventh Years Group #2: Hufflepuff Sixth & Seventh Years Discussion: Knarls
Hagrid beamed down at the his students whom, even though they were some of the eldest in the school, the tallest still never quite reached Hagrid's torso. He cleared his throat and raised his hands in order the quiet down the group and, much to his relief, they immediately hushed up. That was the best thing about Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs. Although he'd always had a soft spot for Gryffindors, those two house were none to be the most respectable - Ravenclaws because they were wise and clever, although he'd always found that somewhat intimidating, and Hufflepuffs because they were kind and, usually, very sweet. Generally, they were easy to control because they were actually interested in the subject and respected him as a professor. Slytherins were the worst, really. Still grinning, Hagrid lowered his pan-like hands and observed them carefully before speaking again. "Today we'll be discussing Knarls. Now, some of you may already know what Knarls are, if you own a garden. They're cheeky little buggers, used ter get in trouble all the time 'cause me mam thought I was the one ruining the gardens." He chuckled to himself and a few students chuckled along with him, much to his relief. "Now. Can anyone tell me the difference between a Knarl and a Hedgehog?"

Pippin had always liked animals, so taking Care of Magical Creatures was really a no-brainer for her. Learning about unicorns last year had been a mega-highlight, however silly that sounded. The creatures this year seemed less dangerous, which was disappointing, but the classes were still interesting. Pippin was waiting for the day when Dumbledore gave Hagrid permission to teach them about dragons and actually bring one onto the grounds, though she wasn't gonna hold her hand over her ass waiting for it to happen.
Today didn't seem too exciting, but Knarls were adorable as fuck because hedgehogs were adorable as fuck, and Pippin found herself ooh-ing over the cuteness as she shoved her way to the front. Whatever Hagrid's question was, Pippin didn't really care. She had one of her own, which she didn't waste time in voicing:
“Can I have one of the hedgehogs when this lesson's done?”
