"Alright then....initiating countdown to lift off ... 10.....9 ....8..." Never mind. That was taking too long. He should have just started at 3. " 7654....3...2...1...UUUUUUUUUP we go!"
Bending at the knees, the astronomer picked the bag up with a little more haste than he had anticipated - momentarily forgot about the whole no additional weight effects of the enchantment - and stumbled backwards a step or two.
"Whoops, sorry there," he chuckled as he gave the two a salute. "Allow me to take this opportunity to thank you both for allowing me to cross off not one, but two things off my life's bucket list. In fact, 4 points each." And with another salute he lowered the bag back down to the floor.
Thornton stumbled as the bag was lifted up and he opted to sit down, lest he completely knock Dante over. The sensation was odd, being carried inside a bag had the feeling of being lifted, but none of the visual stimuli of a change. Thornton found it dizzying.
But quickly, they were back on the ground.
Standing, he considered how exactly he might get out. The lip of the bag was too high to simply push himself out - he didn't have the upper body strength. Maybe he should tip the bag and crawl out? That could end badly.
He looked to Dante and then up at the Professor.
"That was fun, but, uh, how do we get out?"
