Post 1 HeadGirlMC | Treddie & Trixiver <3 | Copy Girl | Katie's Ickle Minion | I love YOU more Although the subject was really interesting and Terry enjoyed hearing about all the spacey stuff, Astronomy, he feared, would not be his strongest subject. He didn't mind sitting back and taking the occasional note on his parchment but he didn't feel the need to speak up and answer questions like everyone else was doing. His mother had not really spoken much about the subject and therefore he didn't really understand it as much as an older student would yet. But this making a rocket business? This sounded right up his street.
The twelve year old hiccuped as he finished off the fizzy drink and stared at the empty bottle. He would risk using the Scourgify spell but he chose to wash it out in the basin anyway, just in case he couldn't get it exactly right. Once it was perfectly clean, he left it on his workspace whilst he went to collect the items from the box.
What was it he needed? Another bottle, some cardboard, a plastic bag, a piece of dental floss? Thankfully this task didn't seem too difficult for him, it was lucky considering it was his first class of the term, of his schooling life. He picked up the equipment and headed back to the table where he had been sat. It was a shame really that he hadn't made connections with any of the students here yet but he was going to make sure that he did soon enough, he didn't want to be lonely in class.
The blonde boys eyes drifted over to the board where he took in the instructions of what was to come next. Being a new student, he glance over at what everyone else was doing, hoping to imitate their spells in order to get his completely right. "Diffindo" he muttered as he waved his wand, mimicking what he saw everyone else doing. To his delight, the bottle was sliced where it was supposed to. He slid it onto the other bottle and grinned at his handiwork. That was one part down, only a few more steps to go.
The next step involved cutting and Terry hoped that he would be able to do this with a pair of scissors. It would be so much easier after all. He cut the cardboard so that it was flat on one side and points at the other, like a right angled triangle. He traced round this using his quill onto two more pieces of cardboard so that they would be of equal size and then cut them out as well.
It was going well so far.
