"Woah, Jill that's cool! - you're getting there," Aschere grinned. Jill was right - it was impossible to get a wand out of your sleeve if you're sitting down.

ooc: believe me - I've ACTUALLY tried!

In every other way, up the sleeve seemed perfect. It was an absolutely inconspicious action - all you had to do was straighten the bend in your arm and let the wand slide out into your fingers behind your back if you wanted to take it out quietly. It could also shoot out in less than a second if you jerked your arm straight... if you practiced, which Aschere did a couple of times. After quite a few slips, she found that it was easier to let the wand shoot through your fingers, but to keep contact with it and tighten the grip at just the right moment.
Really having fun with her wand now, Aschere tried to think of a situation in which she'd need to access her wand quickly. Striding towards an imaginary mountain troll, she swung her arm down in an arc, and in a smooth movement brought it to point the wand between the troll's eyes. Minor problem being that the wand itself had shot across the classroom. Practice, practice...!
