Flitwick gave a chuckle, "I'll leave you to it then" he said before he went to join the other professors at the head table.

As soon as he was out of earshot Magnus grinned to Andromeda, "that was brilliant, Snape looked like he wanted to hex you." He chuckled to himself.

Andromeda smirked, "I wish he would have tried, it would have given me ample reason to kick his arse all over the great hall, never did like him even when we went here together." She mused as she began to fill her plate from the food on the table.

Meanwhile, up at the head table, the sounds of Snape complaining to Dumbledore could be heard as he began to go off on a private tirade about how insulting it was to have another potion master teaching here as if he wasn't good enough.

Only for McGonnagal to cut him off mid-rant, "Oh would you give it a rest Severus, you have no one to blame but yourself. It's not just Filius but myself and Pomona included who have gotten numerous complaints about your teaching methods over the years."

"If you didn't want someone to come in and do a better job than you, you should have stepped up, as far as I'm concerned it was only a matter of time until this happened."

Snape looked furious at the insinuation and stood up from the table with a scowl on his face and with a final glare at McGonagall and then at Andromeda turned and left through the back entrance the door banging shut behind him.

Andromeda smirked and glanced to Professor McGonnagal and raised her glass, a gesture that the Scottish woman returned both smirking.

---------

By coincidence, it just so happened that the Ravenclaw and Gryffindor first years had potions class later that morning.

So it was no surprise when each and every one of them turned up outside Andromeda's classroom door on the second floor of the castle.

Magnus was already waiting outside with Daphne and Tracey when the Gryffindor students began turning up. He smirked when he saw Harry and Ron coming down the hall, "Hey cousin, you skipping out on Snape too?" He joked.

Harry gave a smirk, "Are you joking, of course, I am. Your Aunt is bound to be way better at teaching than Snape."

Magnus smirked, "true, though she might be my aunt she's your cousin, once removed remember."

Harry's smile grew at that remembering the long chat he and Magnus had the day before, he had been extremely happy to learn that he had way more family than just the Dursley's.

Ron, on the other hand, seemed to scrunch up his face, "what are you on about Black, you two aren't cousins!"

Magnus rolled his eyes, while Harry sighed, "yes we are Ron, my Grandmother was a Black before she married my grandfather and became a Potter, that's how I'm related to him," he explained.

"So yes Weasley Harry and I are related," Magnus added, "and although it pains me to admit it so are the two of us."

"What!" Ron said wide-eyed, "no way I'm not related to you!" Sounding completely scandalised.

Magnus nodded, "we are, your grandfather, Septimus Weasley, married Cedrella Black, that makes us related by blood, though thankfully it's distant like second cousins once removed or something. Though I'm not sure if it still stands seeing as she was disowned for the act of your grandfather."

Magnus explained and looked to think for a moment, 'hmmm perhaps that would be a good way to make House Weasley an ally, if I were to welcome back Cedrella back to the family, if she's still alive that is,' he thought to himself, 'I'll have to ask Andy about her,'

Ron looked to be getting redder by the second, "she was not, my grandmother wasn't a dark witch, take that back!" He yelled.

It just so happened that the next second the classroom door opened to reveal Andromeda standing behind it, not looking impressed in the slightest.

"I will have you know Mr Weasley, that my great aunt Cedrella was a very dark witch, one who cared about family dearly even though she was as dark as the rest of us, and it broke my heart when she was disowned for marrying your grandfather, but she was content with it."

"It was she who offered me aid when I was cast out of the family for marrying my husband, a muggle-born, and I still to this day meet up with her twice a month to have tea and catch up." She stated firmly.

Magnus smirked, 'well I guess that answers that. I'll have to send a couple of letters later then,' he thought to himself as he looked at Ron who was reaching a new shade of red.

"My grandmother was not a Dark witch! You're all liars!" Ron yelled before turning and stomping off angrily, the other first-years moving out of his way as he went.

Once Ron was out of sight Andromeda just shook her head, "I swear Molly has ruined that boy," she muttered to herself before looking to the rest of the students, "well what are you waiting for, come in and sit down, two students to a cauldron," she instructed.

The students were all quick to obey and filed into the classroom which Magnus could see had been well outfitted on such short notice.

There were many desks set up in five rows of four, with two cauldrons on each desk, meaning that the classroom could manage up to forty students at a time which was more than enough space for everyone.

One of the walls had three large windows that were open wide that left the room floor with light, as well as let a crisp breeze in from outside to vent the room.

Andromeda quickly made her way up to her desk which was to the left of a large blackboard with a large trunk under it.

Andromeda tapped the trunk with her wand and it opened up as stacks of bound parchment came out of it followed by many cardboard boxes, way more than the trunk should have been able to hold, showing that it was expanded on the inside.

The parchments separated and divided up among the students and a box floated over with them to each student.

"Now then, before we begin, the first thing we shall all be going is going over the rules in this classroom, along with the safety procedures, that I expect each and everyone of you to follow."

Andromeda said as she tapped a piece of chalk with her wand and the chalk lifted up and began to write on the blackboard what she just said.

"Potions may seem simple to all of you, and at first glance many make that same mistake but make no mistake about this, it can be just as dangerous as any other craft in magic, if you make a mistake in brewing there is a very high chance that you or your partner will get hurt because of that mistake."

Each and every student in the room was sitting still and giving Andromeda their full attention. Magnus and Harry sitting next to one another at their table we're no exceptions.

"Mistakes happen to even the best of us, which is why we will be taking precautions, the boxes that you each have been given, have your first piece of protective gear inside," Andromeda said as she fished a pair of clear goggle glasses.

"Whenever you are brewing, each of you will wear a pair of these, my husband introduced me to them some years ago, they are a muggle invention made to protect your eyes should the potion you are brewing react badly and spit, each have been enchanted to make them stronger than they normally would be."

"I cannot tell you how many potential potion masters and mistresses have lost their eyesight because of a potion spitting into their eye or eyes, I do not want any of that happening to any of you."

Many students were nodding and looking at their goggles like they were rare gifts.

"Next" Andromeda said as she waved her wand and pairs of long aprons and gloves hovered out and flew over to each student.

"The gloves are to be worn when you are handling any ingredients, to prevent any of the more potent ingredients, and the aprons are to be worn at all times when brewing, both are charmed and are lined with Dragonhide to protect you should you make a mistake in your brewing and your potion react violently," Andromeda continued to lecture.

"At the end of every class you will make sure your workstation is clear and your goggles are back in their box, your apron folded with your gloves and placed neatly on top of your desk for the next student to use."

Each student accepted the aprons and gloves gratefully. Magnus took the apron, and put it to the side, he remembered Andromeda talk about all of this the night before in their mirror call.

She had been ecstatic at his suggestion that she come to Hogwarts to teach, and now he could see why.

----------

What followed after that was a fifteen-minute lecture on all of the classroom rules and what the students could expect in each of her classes before she proceeded to walk them through the brewing steps for the first potion they would be brewing, the cure for boils.

She made sure to walk through each step slowly and took them through the reason why each step took place, and why it happened in that particular order.

Explaining how each ingredient reacted to one another.

Once she was done and her cauldron emptied into multiple phials, she then walked the students through the process of how to properly clean down their stations to leave it ready for the next class.

Once she was done she began to have each student recites the brewing process of the potion before picking out various students at random and asked them what a particular stage of the brewing was.

All to make sure that they knew the recipe off by heart to help prevent any mistakes.

Only then did she let the students go to collect their ingredients and turn on their cauldrons to begin the brewing process as she walked around watching closely to make sure no one was making any mistakes.

The remaining time passed quickly once the brewing process began and Andromeda smiled as the last student was bottling their potion, another top quality batch that she would be more than happy to send to Madam Pomfrey, her stores would be well-stocked for boils after this.

There had not been one mistake throughout the whole lesson.

"Very well done, if I could award points each of you five points," Andromeda praised, "now for next class I want a half foot parchment from each of you, covering all the details on the potion we covered here today, with emphasis on the most crucial parts of the brewing process. You may begin cleaning up your stations."

Each of the students moved to clear up their stations and wipe them down just as Andromeda had walked them through.

When Magnus was finished he took the leftover ingredients back over to the expanded storage cupboard, where he ran into Neville Longbottom who was doing the same for his station.

Magnus smiled when he saw him and greeted him, "Heir Longbottom, do you have a moment to spare?" He asked politely using Neville's formal title for this first interaction.

Neville seemed to flinch when Magnus called him that but stopped none the less and nodded, his Heir training under his grandmother reminding him that he should always respond in kind when addressed by another of equal rank as such.

"Y-Yes Heir Black, I have a moment."

Magnus nodded, "thank you, Heir Longbottom, I promise not to take up much more of your time than absolutely needed but this is a matter that I have been meaning to speak with you about since coming to Hogwarts and this is the first opportunity I have had to do so with a clear mind." He explained.

"I should have approached you when I approached Heir Potter yesterday, but because of my interaction with Ronald Weasley I feared my emotions would get the better of me should he have spoken up another time."
