He'd kept his silence as others asked frankly stupid questions and hadn't believed a word of what Tasha had said. He'd managed to turn in time to see Gavin and had doubled his grip on the carpet and Tasha the second that the carpet decided it wanted to play even more. "It's just playing, Natasha, I'm sure it will tire soon." he hoped to soothe her nerves with the possibility of this ending soon. Though, at his age, he wasn't sure he was too pleased to be on the top of a playful flying carpet.

Turning down the corridor towards the arched entrance, Alex put on her inquisitive mindset as she glanced around. Wait. "Is that a .... flying carpet?" She asked to no one in particular, oblivious to the fact that Gavin and Evelyn were right there. "This is why flying carpets are banned in Britain."

Sigh.

"Impedimenta!" the Astronomist cast toward the carpet as she withdrew her wand.

There was work to be done and she was pretty sure one of the flames under a cauldron was still going. Granted it would've been a low flame, but another explosion wasn't necessary for their department.

Do not make her take out her wand! Because...

Oh, Alex was here. "You mean, banned for being completely awesome?" Hehe. So truuue.

At least Charles didn’t appear to be injured Tasha noted as the carpet seemed to have stopped for the time being. Taking his offered hand she did what he told her but she doubted that it would make any difference. Closing her eyes she mumbled. "I'm still dizzy. And this carpet ride isn’t helping."

Gripping the carpet tightly with both her hands she looked up at Charles. "I hope for our sakes that you are right. But the carpet is magical though so I’m not sure if those tire out." Tasha honestly didn’t know much about carpets at all except that they were banned in Britain.

The carpet took off again back and forth along the corridors. At least she didn't get motion sickness otherwise she’d have gotten sick by now. Then somebody one the ground made another attempt to cast a spell at the carpet. It of course evaded it again. As it swept past everyone and out the corridor Tasha called over her shoulder "Izzy, do something! Get help from Wes."
