Paul looked at Serilda for a moment. "I see now. Now look, let me fix it up fer ya, and you'll be off before ye know it." He smiled and pulled out his wand. "Alright then, this'll be quick as a snitch." He walked over to Serilda, and pulled up her sleeve, revealing an already cut and bruised arm. He waved his wand a bit and muttered a charm. The cut closed, and the bruises slightly subsided. "Now then, I want ye to see the nurse once class is done, and that's straight serious girl."
He stood up and addressed the class again. "Now. That we all have our brooms ready, everyone, I want ye to straddle yer broom. Now, there's a cushioning charm on it, so it'll be a bit strange of a sensation. Like sitting on a pillow of air."
He straddled his broom slowly so the students could see. "Once yer straddled, hold the mid-tip with both hands so. Pay attention to what yer doing as well. If ye don't, you'll flip around and fall on yer head." He held up a hand indicating the students should mimick him.
