Cleaning Post 1 curly haired prefect - "sometimes I get angry!" - 30/90 - *chicken emoji* - probably @ Disney - I speak dog This was so stupid. Why did CALEB need to clean the telescope?! Wasn't it Flamsteed's JOB to do that for them? As a full grown wizard, he hardly thought it would be difficult for him to clean them quickly with a few waves of his wand. Ugh. So annoying. So, despite his complaints, he found himself entering the astrophysics lab on a Saturday afternoon, ready to clean - after all, this was worth POINTS.
He took his time selecting one of the telescopes and then pick it up out of the pile, bringing it over to his station. He got a bottle of the cleaning solution that Flamsteed had set aside for them, poured some on a washcloth, and got to work. He knew he had to apply a LIGHT layer otherwise it would never dry and he'd be here forever, so he quickly ran the washcloth over the whole telescope once. There. One layer down.
After about five minutes, the layer had dried, and now he had to do it AGAIN. There was a spell or something that he could use to do this faster, right? Why hadn't they learned THAT in Charms? So much more useful than Arresto Momentum! He made sure that he was doing it in a circular motion as instructed, and that he got that looking glass NICE and clean. That was the important part, after all!
And of course, the part that his EYE went on. He wasn't going to stick his eye on a dirty lens or whatever it was. Gross.
Now that he'd gotten it REALLY clean, he grabbed a towel and wiped it off - only to find that it wasn't TOTALLY clean just yet. It was definitely improved compared to how it was when he first started - but still, it needed at least another layer.
GAH HE HATED CLEANING.
