"But let us assume that a wizard uses an Unforgivable Curse to kill a Death Eater-like enemy. The spell could have been used with good intention, but does that still mark it as Dark Magic?" Magic is Magic was the best phrase James knew. But the course's very name contested that fact.
"Dark Magic is only Dark magic because of it's user?" The real question was, Why isn't this course called Defense against Dark Magic Users? But he felt that such a question was redundant.

Gabrielle looked shocked at question she was replying to.She remembered explaining that on last auror she trained. "Perhaps you didn't understand me well.Magic is a manipulation.It's possible that those curses did exsist long before dark magic appeared, but no matter how good intentioned they could be they were still manipulated for the convienience of dark wizzards." Gabrielle said feeling rather weird discussing this with a student.

"I think i told you enough Mister Wake.If you have any other question relationed to my classes strictly i'll be more then happy to reply you." Gabrielle said wanting to stop this conversation they were leading.

Cosette frowned. James didn't seem to realize that the answer she gave explained it all. It was just called Dark Magic, because people decided it was Dark, compared to light spells, like Lumos. She smiled to herself at the thought.
Suddenly, a thought occurred to her, and she raised her hand. "So, If we're preparing for OWLs, is this going to me more of dueling or.. What I mean is.. What should we expect on the test? Performing spells, answering questions..?" She trailed off, unsure if the Professor could actually answer the question, or if it wasn't allowed.

So, that makes everything easier, James thought to himself. "Sorry ma'am." He rescinded his earlier questions. Essentially, if he stuck to the rudimentary basics, nobody would sniff him out, or attack him over his views on Dark Magic. To simply accept the given definition would be enough. He wasn't in this class to make a fool of himself, nor was out to make trouble. He just wanted to find out which spells to use, and when. Flippendo was not a spell to trigger cave-ins. Dark Magic was just a name. Nothing more, nothing less. James flipped open his book. His attention was now split between the spell book and the teacher.

Jacob ran into class and took a seat. "Sorry I'm late" Jacob cringed. He got out the necessary equipment for this class and sat quietly and patiently.

Lily went to class quickly, being just behind this gryffindor boy. "Sorry I'm late" said Lily quickly and took the only empty seat, in the middle of the classroom. She sat down and put her books from her bag on to the table.

Sierra knew she was late, and knew she would be in trouble. She had lost her textbook and spent many minutes looking for it. She walked into the classroom, and her cheeks flushed up. She knew the students were already into the lesson, and she was behind. She chose a seat in the back, and sat down without a word.

Micheal snuck into DADA and looked at the professor. " sorry i am late professor. I overslept." he said plopping down in the beack and listened to her and waited for to start talking again.

Hafiz dash to his classroom. He knew that he is absolutely late. He straight to the professor and apologised "Sorry Professor. There was something came up just now". He saw Jacob and sat beside him. Although he dont know him but he quite often saw him around. So it wont be any trouble for him.

Jacob saw a Slytherin boy sit next to him and he nodded. He had been listening on a debate between a student and the teacher.
