Muggle Studies Lesson 1

[Mikayla (back <3)]

Mikayla's wavy brown hair flowed behind her as she skidded down the hall, veering to the left, to the right, a jog down a squeezed corrider, and finally, breathless, skulked into the room just as the teacher began talking for what Mika figured was the second time. She was new and had needed to pick up the Slytherin uniform and, being green as grass about the place, found she slipped through disappearing steps and tickled doors just as Brent had said. She hoped the teacher wouldn't care and didn't bother looking up to see the possible anger or disappointment, instead listening carefully to the wns of the assignment. Hearing they needed a partner, Mikayla blanched and walked slowly to the teachers desk. "Um, excuse me, Professor, but I'm new here and I'm so sorry I'm late, but I'd like to please do the assignment alone." She glanced up, blue eyes afire with a passion that did not show in her submissive, quiet form, then down before she could really see a reaction, quietly took hold of a pouch, and sat down to catch her breath once more.

Emptying the pouch on the desk, Mika took hold of a screwdriver and carefully took our all the tiny screws holding the watch together. Luckily, having lived all her life observing Muggles, Mika had a good idea of what to do. She took out a round object, looking at it with interest before placing it gingerly on her desk. Next she took out the time changer on the side, setting it beside the round thing. The rest was set apart by what looked like a tiny electrical disk, so she removed the disk, then removed the background of the watch, taking with it the two pointers. Having removed it all, Mika took her parchment and quill and began writing.

From taking apart the muggle watch, this is what I suppose it is made of:
-A stick changer seems to be a silver stick that changes the time as it is moved. Although it looks silver, it is lighter than true silver, and thus is fake.
-A round object powers the watch, perhaps it has an electrical pulse. It seems to be made of a metal of some kind, something to carry electricity from around or inside of it.
-A tiny disk is what connects the power to the front so that the pointers move. It is mostly cardboard, but parts of it are metal to carry the current of electricity.
-The background is a paper circle with all the numbers of time written on it, so the Muggle wearing the watch can see the time.
-Two pointers point out the time to Muggles, one seeming to show the hour, the other the minute, although which is which is questionable. As the longer of the two moves more, it can be assumed that it is the minute pointer. The pointers, by weight and size, are also fake silver.

Mikayla sighed, read and reread her paper then slowly set down her quill and stood, walking at a normal speed to the front of the room. She turned the paper in without a word, walking back to her desk and sitting down, breath coming forth in another sigh. Suddenly, comfortable once more, sound and sense rushed back to Mikayla. The room smelled of humans to her sensitive nose, the watch parts before her stank of age. The sound of metal on metal screeched in Mika's ears, zinging through her brain with a painful intensity. Behind that noise was the sound of breathing, bodies moving, shoes sliding, and quills moving frantically across parchment. Mikayla shook her head, brown locks flowing over her shoulders as she let her aching head sink into her waiting arms on her desk. She had a feeling it was going to be a long day.

[Heaven Casteel]

Heaven was one of the last to enter, then again that was her style. She sat in a dark corner, like usual. It wasn't that she was anti-social or hated the other students, she just prefered to be alone in classes.

Dark eyes remained focused upon her professor. She didn't really know why she was taking this class, she was from a long line of muggles, and had been raised that way. Though she had dabbled in magic through out her life, none of it was like this.

With a soft sigh she would reach into her bag, pulling out a decent size portion of parchment and her favorite quill. brushing back ebony tresses she began to write, the scratching noises filling her ears.

In my own thoughts, I don't see how Muggles are any different from Wizards aside from the magical capabilities that only wizards have.

Both of the kinds can be cruel and kind, no matter where they are from. A wizard wil hurt a child just as fast as a muggle will.

Many don't see this for the pure blood thoughs place in their minds from birth cloud their judgement. They can't see the real truth that lurks behind every corner.

The only real difference is that a Wizard may be able to do more damage. Sure a muggle can kill someone, but a wizard can make them lose their minds through torture.

[Data Dias]

Data Dias entered the class, fairly sure that this was going to be one of the easiest... Well, maybe...

After hearing the assignament, she seattle in one of the free seat, and started to write.

Muggle Studies' Essay

There's no much difference between Muggles and Wizards, apart for the Wizards' innate ability, and Muggles' innate genius.

Yes, Muggle are genius, because when the Wizards discovered that all they needed was a flick of the wand and one small word to move a mountain (well, ipothetically speaking... I think), the Muggles discovered that, working together, the could create a mountain.

And that's the main difference. Most of the Wizards thinks that a wand is all you need to live happily ever after, and despise Muggles because they need to work together in order to do, sometimes, even the smallest thing.

However, even if they'll never admit it, most Wizard are afraid of Muggles not only because of some Pureblood-mania, but also because the know that if you give time to a Muggle, he can knock a Wizard down in a istant, with just a single punch.

Not only that, though: most Muggles are very fast-learner, more than some Wizards, because they had been taught to work their mind on a problem, so to overthrow it, not to just learn a silly word, and simpy vanish it without thinking twice.

Speaking of the Muggles, I think that most of them are afraid magic not only because they think it's un-natural (for them), but expecially because they know (at least uncousciously) that a single Wizard could easily overthrow many Muggles together. (If he's given time to do it, of course.) That's why they think that Wizards are a menace, since just a small group of them can easily conquer any country of the world, if they let them, so in the past they tried to remove anyone who was suspected of Wizadry orWitchcraft.

Then they started to deny that magic even existed, and thus we are now in the present time.

In response to your question, yes, I think that both Muggles and Wizard alike are foolish in their own way.

They still can't, and won't, see the beauty of each other.

Konoka stumbled in late as she did normally and said to the teacher " sorry for being late" then she sat down and got to work on the assignment.

I think that muggels and wizard a vary similar to each other. Being that I'm muggel born I have reason to think except for the convince magic has that they both have a similar way of doing things. I think that the pure blood wizards think that they are better then anyone just as some muggels do. all tough many think muggels and wizards are vary different I have to disagree with what they think." When she was finished she put down her paper and puld out her favorite novel and, started to read it wile she waited for more instructions.

[zelika]

Zelika ran as fast as she could to mugle studies “oh why am I so forgetful?” she muttered angrily pulling her robes tightly around her and slotting the books she had forgotten in to her bag she almost unhinged the door when she reached it “ sorry I’m late professor she said blushing a brilliant scarlet I am such an idiot! She thought angrily pulling out her quill and some parchment out of her bag she realized what they were supposed be doing so she looked at the parchment and decided to scribble as much as she could

Mugle studies

My father is a mugle and I have also read a lot about them in books so I have the general idea of them. I find Mugles slightly confusing though very interesting, and I would like to learn more about them.

Though I believe mugles can be foolish and irritating as some strive to believe that we don’t exist, I think that we are similar in some ways and we all have our faults so I strongly believe that no one is perfect! And I would like to ad that mugles do have there good points as well!

zelika finished writing and put her hand up

[Dante Rose Black]

Dante as always took alot longer to write the pieces out. Being blind made it harder to find were her wornds went but she had mostly perfected the art. She pulled out her quill and pulled out her red ink putting her thoughts on papper.

I believe that muggles and wizards are in some respects the same and some respects diffrent. For example muggles and wizards do alolt of the same things and alot of diffrent things, we both intreact with each other, we both live our day to day lives but in oter respects, I doubt a muggle would deem it normal go to the nearst qudditch game by a porktey and I doubt I wizard would considerr going to a muggle sport in one of those muggle contraptions, or um cars.

But in the if you look down at yourself we're not that diffrent, we are people and weather or not we are foolish is between us and by who we were created.

With that finished she put away her quill and pen and turned in the papper. Lets just pray that it was good enough. She thought to herself.
