 Rhibear ~ Madam Solo ~ Dark Brooding Girl ~ Accio Jedi ~ Gryffinclaw ~ Just a doll
Desiree listened closely to the next set of directions, eager to see where this project was going next. Ooh, a new spell? Fun! She copied the information for Glacius in her notes, giggling softly as she drew the wand movement. That wand movement kind of looked like two mountains with a stream!
Hmm… if she knew they were going to be freezing the foam spheres, she would’ve chosen a more Elsa-inspired color palette for her ribbons. Oh well, too late now! She stuck the wooden dowel into the sphere and started tying her ribbons underneath. First pink, then dark blue, yellow in the middle, then light blue and purple on the other end. She smiled, admiring her work so far. That really did look like a fairy wand!
Setting the fairy wand comet aside for now, Desiree picked up her wand to practice the mountains-and-stream movement for Glacius. After a couple of tries, she had the hang of it and practiced the incantation a few times before combining the two. “Glacius!” she cast, making the funny movement with her wand. In an instant, the foam sphere was encased in ice. Cool (no pun intended)!
“Comet” in hand, Desiree got up, softly humming Let it Go to herself as she moved to the edge of the room. She blinked, totally at a loss for an answer to the question. Seriously, where was Adam when she needed him?! Her brother was a lot better at this science-y stuff than her! She thought back to her textbook and vaguely remembered something about a comet’s tail made of dust. While she was not at all confident in her knowledge, she didn’t want to look lazy or dumb for not trying, so she timidly raised her hand. “The other tail is made of dust... I think,” she said. “And… it’s bent because of light from the sun.” Was that anywhere near right? She had no idea!
