As is the current state of the school, it wasn't only educational of Professor Flamsteed to hold a class about black holes just recently wherein they were able to utilize vacuums for the lesson's activity, it was also utterly helpful not only to them students but for the entirety of the school as well.

At least that was what Beezus thought.

The homework assigned to them was a definite plus. Not only will they be able to clean off because of the lack of house elf to do it for them, they were also gaining house points in the process. Kinda hitting two birds with one stone, right?

And so...after carefully retrieving a blue-colored vacuum cleaner from the cabinet outside the Professor's office, Beezus returned to the Ravenclaw Common Room in with a smile on her face. It was going to be her turn to clean now. Her housemates had a done a great job thus far at keeping everything tidy. They had initiative like that. When they learned that the absence of the house elves, each Ravenclaw had agreed to take on cleaning duties and had designated the act of labor properly.

This was going to be extra work for her but she didn't mind one bit.

......

......

She decided to start off with her own things.

You have to begin with yourself, no?

Groaning, she pulled out her trunk from under her bed while the vacuum lay on the side. *cough cough* "It sure is dusty on this part." She even scraped the surface the trunk had once occupied and gathered an ominous amount of dust on her index and middle finger. Things really got pretty dirty without the house elves.

Sigh.

Oh well. This means they had to be more responsible and independent. Probably a good thing in disguise, you know. Scratching her nose, she tugged on the vacuum, grasped its nozzle so that it was situated on the appropriate spot where it could suck up as much dust as possible. Then she took out her wand, "Vacavus!" With a loud whirring sound, the engine came to life and began to slurp the dust.

SSSSssssSSSsssLLLLuuuUUUUuuUUUUUuUUURRRRRRRPPP

She repeated the same until the entire space under her bed was covered. When she was done, the brunette wiped sweat off her forehead with the back of her hand. Phew!
