"Alright, I think now is about a good of time as any to start. If you haven't noticed yet, which I'm sure all of you have, we don't have the purple mats today. This is because..."
There was a moments pause where she stared at the students, and then looked up to the ceiling where every mat was accounted for, quite stuck. "They're a bit out of our reach. I'm sure our lovely polgergeist had something to do with this, but, instead of taking them down...I thought of something better we can do." Looking back down to the class, Medea grinned.
"If you're afraid of heights, you may stay on the ground, though I assure you, every precaution has been taken into mind for this. So, does anyone have any ideas on how we..." She gestured to them all before pointing to the ceiling. "...are able to get up there?"[/color]
Ella's eyes followed the Professor's, growing wide when they spotted the purple mats that were now stuck to the ceiling. O__O Merlin's beard! That was...kind of funny, actually. And meep! They had been saved from the boat pose due to this trick so that was kind of awesome. Also awesome, the fact that Profressor Romanos wasn't even mad about it! That was quite cool of her. Ella smiled, eager to know why she left them up on the ceiling like that.
Wait...they were going up there to get the mats? WOW! Ella immediately knew how she would go about the task, hand raised. "Professor, we can use our brooms!" Beam! Ella loved to fly so any excuse to get up in the air was really exciting. SPOILER!!: Professor2 Quote:

Listening to each and every idea, nodding here and there, her gaze settled on the fourth year Gryffindor and Hufflepuff Prefect. "Where's your sense of adventure? It would be just too simple and boring to let them fall down on their own. Though yes, normally, I would advise going the safest root possible when it comes to, potentially dangerous, situations..."
"Which, I must say, those are some good ideas given. I think Mister Gunter and Miss Branxton were closer to what I had in mind for today. We will be sticking ourselves up there, quite literally, and although it won't be because of a potion, there will be something you need to drink in order to keep the blood in your body from rushing to your head." Moving over to the two boxes, she scooted them out in front where all could see and opened them up. Hopefully none in front were scared of the eight legged creatures, for her mechanical spider scuttled out of one box suddenly and stood by Medea's feet. What was in the boxes though were what looked to be shoes and gloves. "And I thought, since we're up there, we might just have our lesson up there as well."
She paused and looked back to the class. "Again, it is quite safe, I promise you that. These shoes and gloves are sticky enough to keep you stuck to the walls. Trust me, I've tried them." Medea raised her hand up a little. Guilty! "But of course, I will be taking other precautions once we start getting up there. If you'd rather stay on the ground, that is perfectly fine. Being up there will give a different perspective that I wanted to aim for though, and surely something you wouldn't want to miss out on, but, that is entirely up to you. So, take a moment to think about that. If you would like to join me, take a pair of gloves and shoes and put them on. They'll shrink or grow to the correct size on their own so there are no worries about looking for a perfect fit."
"Also, mandatory for those going up, besides the gloves and shoes. Please drink one of the cups from the table over here, or you'll be coming back down to the ground every few minutes so your head won't look like a tomato." Professor Lafay was kind enough to help in the creation of the potions. The woman's ingredients were used in it after all. "Questions should be asked now, rather than later." OOC: If your character feels like going up, take a pair of gloves/shoes and put them on as well as drink one of the potions in the cups from the table, though do try to have them resist going all Spiderman in the class until Medea says it's okay. There is no problem with having your character stay on the ground as well. It's up to them after all!
We'll continue sometime around 7pm EST tomorrow.
Blink. Blink.THEY WERE GOING TO LIKE...WALK UP ON THE CEILING? HOLY AWESOME, BATMAN! That was just...the absolute coolest! And meep! They were totally going to be just like Spiderman up there! Grin. She knew several friends who would be really excited about this!
Did Ella want to go up with the other students? DUH! She hurried over and picked herself a pair of shoves and gloves, bringing them back to her spot and sitting down. She laced up the shoes quickly and then placed her gloves on her hands, smiling excitedly. Oh! And the potion! Ella walked over and grabbed one of the cups, drinking it down in one gulp. Bounce. Bounce. Blink. Time to be Spiderman?
