"Okay, you two," Isabelle gestured to both of them, letting them know they could come up to stand by her side. "Seeing as you're so eager, Miss Cambridge, you can be the one to stand inside. Mister Gunter, you can do what I would have done and provide the water for the testing. That okay?" It would kind of have to be, because she said so.
Eeeeep! They could both go!! Lex shot up to the teacher with a wide smile across her face. This wasn't any adventure with Mr. Giant Squid but it would do...for now.
She squealed a bit wen the Professor said she could be the one to stand in the shower part. This meant she'd be the one being the guinea pig and all that. Normally that wouldn't seem like a good thing but to her it WAS okay??? She looked over at Oakey. If her assumption was correct he'd be squirting her with water...was that it? What testing???
SPOILER!!: Professor

"Okay, now as Alyssa guessed, we'll be making umbrellas today. Plastic framed ones to be exact as they're easier to produce. The spell will elongate the shoelace, one end will curve to form a handle and the other will separate into spokes and a covering. With any luck." She chuckled. With any luck. Yes. And then Alexa wouldn't get wet. No, she'd done this spell loads of times, it was more the kids doing it for the first time that might need to be concerned. They had worn clothes they didn't mind getting wet, right?
Holding her wand directly over the straightened out shoelace, she drew a line in the air, finishing it by going down and then up diagonally, as if tracing a small triangle at the end. "Protegamur Aqua!" The words came out at the same time as she did the wand movement. And just as she'd said the shoelace started to change slowly.
After a few seconds though, a fully formed and brightly coloured rainbow umbrella was laying across the table. But it was closed. And now she had to open it to make sure there were no holes. A quick push upwards of the prongs and it opened to show a large umbrella, big enough to cover her and perhaps one other person.
Isabelle twirled it around before handing it over to Alexa with a smile. "Now, Miss Cambridge, if you wouldn't mind stepping inside the cubicle with this. Oakey, if you could just produce a shower of water over the top of the curtain with your wand, we'll see how well it holds up."
OOC: Please don't RP each others reactions, just your own characters. Fanking you muchly. ;D
When the Professor was done explaining and giving the instructions she took the umbrella--such a pretty one too--ahem, right, she took the umbrella and practically hopped into the cubicle thingy. This one was foolproof because Professor Magnus made it herself and the woman was like a genius at transfiguring stuff so there should have been nothing to worry about...'cept...how boring was that? Since it had the Professor standard going for it any expectations she previously had were ruined...
Deciding not to let this ruin it for her she held the umbrella above her head and waited for the shower of water that was supposed to be crashing down against this thing.
It would be just like dancing in the rain!!! Of course...they would be inside...and there would be no rain...a-and no one would really be getting wet but you got the idea.
"Whenever you're ready Oakey!" BEAM.
