See? That wasn't so hard. Not that she really cared about winning or even showing Flamsteed that she approved of his game, but she liked mastering new spells. And there was something very satisfying about popping a balloon.

And since there wasn't anything better to do... might as well keeping popping balloons. Maybe a Ravenclaw one this time?

"Accio apple," Dot reached out to catch her apple as it zipped back to the earth. Like a baby meteorite falling to the earth, only there was no burning up on reentry.

She cast the anti-gravity spell again, already thinking about which of those darn blue balloons she wanted to take out. Probably the one riiiiiight over Flamsteed's head. "Derivo Gravitatem. Derivo Gravitatem. Derivo Gravitatem." Again, she drew the counterclockwise circles over her apple, and when she tossed it, the apple seemed to glide to the spot she wanted.

Like sports were so hard!

She'd been hoping to clip two darts, but the one she managed to hit was good enough. Better than nothing, really, and she was awfully good at hitting nothing. The dart must have been hit at an odd angle, though, because it didn't push off toward the balloon she wanted. Instead, it spun out, careening in a wild arc away from the blue balloon and taking out a yellow one instead. Oh. Oops?
