With a small smile, and a patient tone Tristan turned to Eddie, "Of course there is a spell to clean it up, but we aren't cleaning it up. If we use that spell it would completely disappear and we don't want that." He said shaking his head. "We are harvesting it so that Professor Myers can use it before the sun comes up. I am sure you were paying attention all through out the lesson and heard not only myself, but your classmates say that Mooncalf dung is one of the best fertilizers for magical plants." Actually, he was pretty sure Eddie hadn't been listening. "It is highly sought after and rare fertilizer. So, we don't just want to get rid of it. Of course there are charms that can get it into the bucket as well, but some of your classmates may use those as a chance to fling it at each other, and that would be an extreme waste and would cause a lot of people to have detention." He said with a pointed look.

He continued with an even more patient tone, "Therefore, buckets and hand shovels it is. It's not like you have to pick it up with your bare hands. And seeing as I know you like to experiment on things, if you do the task, as I told Jessa, I may let you take some." Instead of being sneaky and stealing. Tristan wouldn't put it past the young man to do it. He watched him very carefully at the Salamander lesson. He had that gleam in his eye. "If you chose not to participate, however, and your house wins, you will not receive the prize." And of course, would lose participation points. But that was his choice. He wasn't going to force the young man to do anything he didn't want to do. He just wouldn't reap the benefits either.

Tristan moved closer to the containers so that he could see their progress. He folded his arms, and grinned watching everyone running around with buckets of poop. He hadn't noticed at all that Derfael had picked up the poop with his hands. The young man was kind of out of site at the moment. He did notice, however, that Natalie had just sloshed poo all down her front. "Scorgify, Natalie! Scorgify!" He called out, holding back a chuckle. Tristan looked down at his watch to check the time. He cupped his hands around his mouth and called out, "5 minutes have passed! You have 15 minutes!"

OOC: You all are doing great!! Keep it up! You have until the 25th at 11:59 pm EST! So a little shy of 48 hours!

Well that was just gross and Eddie made a face.
Why would anyone want to throw it at anyone. He wasn't that sort of student that was for sure. He kept to himself and didn't tell anyone his plans so he had a very puzzled look when the professor made it out to know he experimented on things, but unless he was a mind reader he couldn't really have known that. There was the chance though that Professor were really going through their personal things and someone got ahold of his notebook.

Taking a quick reach into his robe he made sure it was stashed in it's usual spot and it was, so yeah he couldn't see how the professor would know anything about him really. The most he knew was Eddie didn't keep friends, didn't truly listen in class, and passed things by a point or so just to keep his mother and the other adults out of his business.

"I still think if there was a harvest spell that it would be easier for everyone and better for the dung to be placed right in the greenhouse than all these steps that could break it down or contaminate it." Though could you contaminate dung?

Professor man might have caught his attention with keeping it but again how would he even know Eddie wanted to keep it? The dung he had in his room he had gotten from Peeves and he rarely went near the stables. He knew when kidnapping animals to test on to grab random from the castle, not come and touch a barn full of animals.

Picking up the bucket and shovel he went to the field, though he might not come back with much of anything, because he still wasn't all about this.
