Oh merlin.

Oh merlin oh merlin.

Eyes wide, Lucas just stared at Sandhu. This calling out in front of everyone? This only added to his embarrassment which added onto the fear of trying the skates and possibly making even more of a fool of himself. He slowly glanced over at the Nina girl to see if she was feeling the same, only to find her giving him a....... look. Okay. Maybe she did feel the same way. And it looked like she was putting on her skates so.....

Guess this was it.

He walked over to the closest pair of skates that weren't claimed yet and started strapping them onto his feet. That was the easy part, but it seemed to take forever. An odd feeling started to settle into the pits of his stomach as he slowly got himself up to his feet and just stood there. It felt....... weird? Yeah. Weird. He felt like he was going to fall to his death doom but something else, something about the skates, was resisting that? Sandhu had said that she put a charm on them, right? To keep them stable?

It was time to test that.

The Gryffindor glanced up and slowly started skating. Pushing one foot and then the other and then the first one...... trying to mimic the way he'd seen other people do it. The first few strides were........ slow. Very slow. Everyone else was rushing past him, even some of those who were on a wider orbit than him. But soon - he didn’t know how long but it was enough time - he started to pick up speed as his feet got used to the feeling of these skates. The odd feeling in his stomach? Still there. The internal screaming? Hadn’t left. But he tried to do his best to ignore that while he...... skated?

He was skating.

HE WAS SKATING.

WAS SANDHU WATCHING??

When an orbit was done, Lucas whipped out his wand and started casting the spell, wand movement and all. "Creare Orbis!" ....... Oh. Oh. That was a weird feeling, wasn’t it? But that gentle tug told him enough: that his spell had worked - success! - and he was now stuck in this area of orbit. ...... Right? He couldn’t move out or move closer if Kepler’s Laws were still intact here.

But then he felt something else. This time, there was a small tap on his shoulder from someone behind him? Looking around, his eyes landed on the Nina girl from before and he....... was confused. Did she want to talk about what happened before? Please don’t. He reaaaaaaaally didn’t want to talk at all ever about any of-

Oh. Oh right, this was supposed to be a game of tag.

Oh merlin.

Uhhhhh. It was safe to say that his brain was going into panic mode. The internal screaming only seemed to get louder, and he might’ve let out a very small scream himself as he skated forwards and towards the closest person he could find. Someone. Anyone.

Approaching, uh, someone, he reached out a hand and gave them a quick tap.

Tag, you’re it!
