Rita was clad from head to toe in bright green, a sweet smile playing on her lips.

"Good morning. Today, I'd just like you to turn in your midterm work, and tell us all what you researched."

She smiled expectantly, and pointed at a bowl of golden coins on the desk.

She smiled. "And these coins are yours, if you'd like. Yes, they're gold. Leprechaun gold. Happy St. Patrick's Day."

[Take the gold! It'll disappear in a few hours. And, actual work on the midterm - handwavey is good. But make up something to tell the class, pwease?]

"I thought that researching the Daily Prophet would be interesting," said Janet. "Since it was so well-respected and our teacher is so familiar with the subject material."
