"The color looks sparkling on you, I must say. Where did you find such a pretty pink pair?"
1. Levitate using a swish and flick of the wand plus Wingardium Leviosa.
2. Fix your object in place by pointing your wand at it and saying Fixate.
3. Move your object around the room by saying Locomotor ___ (insert object in blanks) and guiding it with your wand.
"Now then. Work on those step by step, and I'll stand nearby if you have any trouble," she said.
"Quickly finish levitating your light, medium, and heavy objects," she said, addressing the class as a whole. "We'll be moving on soon!"
Professor Carlton did not seem happy or amused with some of the people in the class. Alice had managed to float the clock (without slamming it into the ceiling this time) and was getting ready to move on to the spoon when she heard Professor Carlton scolding Salander, Fletcher, and some other boy she had never seen before. Alice was planning on minding her own business when Professor Carlton complimented Fletcher on his pink boots. Pink boots?
Alice stealthily looked over at Fletcher's feet and oh my those were some pink boots! And they weren't just pink, they were hard to miss standing a mile away pink! Not to mention all the sparkle...Alice imagined Edward's feet probably sparkled in the sun the way Fletcher's shoes were sparkling right now.
Surely he hadn't come in with shoes that color and so...girly? Alice shifted her attention to Professor Carlton who had a pretty satisfactory look on her face. Alice laughed quietly. A teacher with a sense of humor...she liked that.
Alice focused her attention back on the spoon.
"Wingardium Leviosa," Alice said while swish-and-flicking her wand. The spoon came out quicker than she had been anticipating, flying up and smacking into a light fixture on the ceiling. What was the deal? She was hardly moving her wand at all? Alice raised her hand.
"Professor Carlton? Do you think you might be able to show me how to stop the lighter objects from flying out so quickly? I feel like I am hardly moving my wand in the motion at all, but as you can tell," Alice said, as the spoon fell from the ceiling and plonked her on the head,
"it's not working very well." Alice grabbed the spoon off the floor and rubbed her head gently.
