Jack Harkness was supposed to be teaching the class, if anyone knew who he was they'd be in for a bit of a shock because Jack wasn't going to be actually taking his first lesson. Nope. That joyful challenge fell to one Doctor Owen Harper. Who, when had been told this great news by Jack spent the next half hour swearing at him and stomping about the

He sidled over to the side, near them, ignoring the pixies. "Tell me, have you got anything on a Time Lord named the Doctor? I'm looking for him."

Now Turlough's interest was definitely piqued. Another companion? Turlough's met a total of four (five if you count the Brig). Jack wasn't one of them.
Avoiding the pixies again, he made his way to Jack.
"So. I heard you've travelled with the Doctor too."

The other reason he didn't want to get involved was the real reason he was at the back of the class room. His wand was in his hand, pointing down to the floor. As quiet as he could be, he stood there, expressionless and neutral. He was there to use the reversal spell. There were some kids in this class that clearly were, well, like Jack in a way perhaps. Mischief, but a good and innocent mischief, and yet mischief just the same.
He saw Jack and shook his head. Poor bloke. Well, this is what he got for letting Owen teach.

As Jack approached, he reached out with his free hand. His movements were slow, subtled as his fingertips brushed against Jack's knuckle. At least Ianto could be subtle.

Jack had given up subtle decades ago. He reached out and held Ianto's hand as he leaned against the wall. "I bet you." He leaned in a whispered low so Owen wouldn't hear and he hopefully wouldn't disturb anyone. "Something will happen to him during all this."

"Eh-oh!" the Teletubby chirped brightly to Luna. He tried to fit his bulky bottom into the seat next to hers, but couldn't fit between desk and seat, so finally plopped onto the floor. As ever, a jingling sound punctuated the moment when Tubby booty met the floor, and Tinky Winky giggled and kicked his feet a little.
"One day, in Hogwartstubbyland, Tinky Winky attended an actual class!" said the Narrator.

"Dipsy has a rod-shaped antenna," the Narrator reminded Tinky Winky.
"DIPSY! Dipsy have wand! Ohhh, Dipsy," the Teletubby moaned, raising his mittlike hands to his face and rocking back-and-forth in sudden emo despair. "Tinky Winky miss Dipsy."

"Okay. THAT is not funny."

They began to move across the room, dragging the pixie behind them, and she tossed off another stunner before diving for the glasses, which had started to fall with her concentration on the summoning broken. She came up with them in her left hand and looked around for the owner.

I'm getting off topic, the point is that he could still see names well enough, and he found Naomi holding a pair.
"Oh, please say those are mine."

She'd listened to the lecture raptly. She hadn't taken notes, but she'd hung on the professor's every word. And, the pixies having been released, she stood up, scowling in fierce concentration (a look that did not do her appearance any particular favors), and set to stunning pixies. This required her to tune out the rest of the people in the class, which was good because some of them did not seem to be much interested in actual studying. To her surprise, she was actually good at this activity, and within a few moments she actually began to enjoy herself.

Brienne was one of the few people here he recognized (he also recognized Wishbone the talking dog, and hoped to stay well away from that confusing canine). Simon watched her dispatch pixies with aplomb. A soft and amazed grin spread over his face.
"Wow." (Okay, it was the Chinese equivalent of wow, but the mun doesn't know Mandarin and doesn't trust fan sites.) "You're really good with that, Brienne."

Then he realized, as ever, too late; now I'm going to look like a coward to her.
"But I might as well try ... that's what classes are for." He took the wand with a grip whose firmness might be somewhat surprising given his less-than-forceful manner. "Here goes nothing. Stupefy!"
A pixie stopped in mid-flight. For a moment Simon thought incredulously I've done it. On my very first try I've performed a magic spell. I've --
Then the pixie stuck its tongue out at him.
Apparently it had frozen not in stupefaction, but in surprise at Simon's effrontery.
