First You See It, Now You Don't [CoMC lesson - open]

Kaleb Allaway stood on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, waiting for his class. Stretched out in rows before him were earthy stumps, with a branch curling around to form a desk. These artistic works of natural art were of his own making, and transfigured from a collection of buttons that were not so naturally-made. Oh well - whatever worked, right?

In back of the professor was a chalkboard. Much like the chairs it also had an arboreal touch, with tree roots magically coaxed out of the ground to hold up the chalkboard. Off to the side was a fairly large fenced in area, where a cluster of squat, stubby-tailed birds pecked at the ground with clumsy beaks and sidled across the fresh, loose soil nervously. One vanished in a flurry of feathers, then reappeared again, which startled the rest and made them do the same.


Kaleb chuckled at the birds and sat in his own chair-stump, on the lookout for today's students. Until they arrived, the werewolf crammed an earphone into one ear and gave a magically-modified, little red mp3 player a tap with his wand. He then tapped the chalkboard, and a series of words splashed onto the slate surface.
