Derf had been distracted by the bubbles ever since entering the Charms classroom. While to everyone else they were the house colors, to the thirteen year old they were shades of yellow, olive green,
and blue...so there were no real conclusions to be drawn for him. Although his mind could imagine that they were house colors - given that the variety of hues were not enough to indicate the colors of the rainbow. Were they to pop them somehow? Or summon them or...

Distractedly, Derf still managed to find himself a seat next to Natalie without realizing it until class had officially begun. Bubbles were distracting, you know? But once class had begun, his blue eyes swiveled to the Slytherin and he offered a bit of a sheepish grin and accompanying hair ruffle.

Speaking of distractions.

Swallowing, Derf turned his attention forward as the professor began speaking. Prizes were something he had come to expect from the Charms professor, but THESE were particularly neat. He could not remember where he had put his eraser previously received...but notepads...with ENCHANTED paper? Know what would be neat? Being taught the charm that made paper do THAT.

Which made the Hufflepuff's heart feel a bit crestfallen since it was clear that that was NOT what they were going to be learning today. Or perhaps he was assuming too early...but it would be NEAT to learn to charm paper to fold itself into a paper airplane and then send them off up towards the bubbles to pop them, yeah? Maybe.

But right...Flight Charms...

Derf's eyes looked up at the bubbles once more and instantly thought about Levicorpus. Only that was a jinx and not a charm...not even a Dark charm. Which made his gaze briefly fall on Jessa for a moment.

"And flying carpets," he added to Skylar's response. "Or...really any object you want to make fly...like automobiles..." Er...that really wasn't adding all that much to the conversation now, was he? Back up to the bubbles went his gaze and then up went a pointed finger. "Reckon a Flight Charm could help us pop those bubbles...Rocket Charm maybe."

Imagine launching each other up in the air....
