Wait..... was it REALLY Flora's birthday?? Cause Bernie just started belting out the happy birthday song. Also, the headmaster was completely unphased by all this? And why was Phoebe relighting the candles?? What was she supposed to be doing again? Oh that's right... hoisting the moon. As high as it could go, apparently.

I think we just need to tug on the rope all three of us at the same time so the moon gets hoisted high enough into the air like Headmaster Trent wants and then we secure the rope by tying it down on something solid like i don’t know a table or a stage winch?" How high Headmaster Trent wanted it raised hadn’t been specified. Grabbing onto the rope, Cole waited for the girls to do the same before he started to pull the rope down with all his force. Hopefully the rope wouldn’t break.

Oh, wait, Trent was in here! So they weren't in Muggle Studies. They were in POTIONS.

Anyway... Isla turned to Cole, waiting to hear his explanation of what they were supposed to do. She nodded. "Sounds easy enough," she said. She joined Cole in holding on to the ropes. As soon as Carsyn grabbed a hold, too, they could start tugging on the count of three or something.
She turned back to Isla and Cole, as Cole tugged on the rope. And Isla joined in, which meant all that was left for her to give it tug too. It was like tug o' war with the moon?

Picking up the end behind Isla, she nodded at the two of them. "Alright, sooo ready set.... pull? And if this doesn't work... we always climb the rope." It would give them better pull if they could get closer to the moon, yes? Maybe? Actually she had no idea.
