Rita sat on her desk, checking her lipstick in a compact.

"Good morning, girls and...boy. Today's an easy day. I want you to tell the class what you investigated, and what you discovered. Was it difficult to get people to open up to you? Did you even talk to people, actually? Or did you go the surreptitous route of avoiding human contact?"

She waved at a tray on her desk.

"And do turn in your written findings, please."

Rory signed in, in a very nondescript and generally boring way.

Chloe signs in, just a little more excitedly than Rory.

John summarizes his his investigation. (http://imanaturalblond.livejournal.com/2417.html?thread=11633#t11633)

"For my investigation, I chose a professor that shall remain anonymous to protect her and her family. Once I chose this professor, I investigated the probability of said professor being wed. I asked the tough questions, she put up a good front but I think I made a breakthrough. What breakthrough, you ask? Well, this professor is very obviously married but also has a very close, non weird, relationship with her brother."

"I investigated Jeff, the God of Biscuits. You know, the bakery? It's actually owned by a guy named Steve. Who lives in the basement. He doesn't like people. And he's ironically an atheist. And also? They sell cookies, but not biscuits. So I don't know if that't a British thing or just a way to confuse us."

Rory certainly looked very confused.

"I investigated Locker 327," Chloe explains. "Or, well, I investigated one of the recent incidents that happened with the locker, concerning Professor Cregg and the Doctor getting sucked in and coming back out as teenagers. I fully plan on investigating more about the Locker if I can. And if Professor Eppes doesn't get us killed before I can find anything out, of course."

Turn in the Assignment

50-60 words, please.

John turns in his written findings.

I investigated the possibility of one professor having a secret husband. During my investigation, I asked many probing questions and sometimes met many brick walls. In the end, though, I was able to put the pieces together. This professor is definitely married, has possibly been married twice, and has strong ties with her brother but not in an illegal way.

After Class

If you need Rita for anything (say, to pester her about her nonexistant husband or to secure an SC note), here's the place to do it.

Anakin walked into the classroom looking very, very sorry to be there. "Professor Skeeter, may I have a moment of your time please?"

Re: After Class

[imanaturalblond.livejournal.com]

Rita smiled. It wasn't particularly nice.

"Surely, Mr. Skywalker. What can I do for you?"

Re: After Class

"I was in the library trying to get source material for class tomorrow and the information I want about the Jedi is kept in Special Collections." He stopped staring at his boots. "I was wondering if you might be able to write me a note to allow me access to it. Please?"

Re: After Class

Rita raised a brow, and picked up her wand.

She idly flicked it in the direction of the green quill on her desk.

A second later, she handed Anakin a note.

Please allow the light-footed Mr. Anakin Skywalker to visit Special Collections. He is reasearching a rather unique and fascinating project for my class, and his work in that branch of the library will surely be an attempt to prove his masculinity and heterosexuality. Ergo, as I am always open to my students trying to challenge obvious truths, I am more than happy to grant my permission.

Anakin read the note and choked.

"Thank you," he said, red to his ears.

Re: After Class

[imanaturalblond.livejournal.com]

Rita nodded. "You're more than welcome, darling. Run along now."

Re: After Class

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Anakin turned tail and fled.

Err, made a strategic retreat.
