Default Charms Lesson 1 - Bubble-head Charm

The chilly morning air might've inspired a brisk walk to class, but the temperature inside the charms classroom is warm and inviting. Classical music drifts softly through the room, meant to calm the bodies and minds of students as they settled in. The desks are arranged in their typical horseshoe fashion, though today there is a bucket of water beside each, so be careful when taking your seat. In the center of this horseshoe sits a rather ordinary fish tank, the bottom filled with different colored marbles. Are those the house colors, you ask? Why yes, yes they are.

Professor Peralta is perched on the edge of her desk, flanked on both sides by what appear to be changing rooms. She glances at her watch every now and then, eager to begin.

Please come on in and take your seat, class will be starting shortly!


OOC: Hello friends! Welcome to Charms! Please remember that although this is our first RPed lesson, this is NOT the first lesson the kids would've had with Professor Peralta! Also please familiarize yourself with the Charms Rules and SSRPG Rules before posting! Thank you! Class will be starting in about 15 hours! CLASS HAS ENDED!

Huh?

Atlas had not quite caught what Bernie had been mouthing at him, he wasn't so good at reading lips and also he hadn't been paying attention in a way where he could have interpreted it. "What was that?" He was really REALLY excited about whatever spell that was she had just cast. It looked FUN and kind of reminded him of those inflatable things you could walk inside and roll around in and bounce off things. Like...it looked like a good time. Human hamster balls! Maybe they could use those and roll there way to freedom across the lake?

Atlas still had not given up thinking of alternate plans, but the plans had to be foolproof.

So, Atlas was moving back over towards the other Gryffindor - because yes, he WAS going to stick to her for the time being and observe her movements and try to learn from her. She was his current mentor of the moment, okay?

He still hadn't managed to perform a successful bubblehead charm, so the coming activity was going to be rather hit and miss, but once he was riiiiiiiiiiiiight up alongside the fifth year again he gave the spell another try. "Viseo Ebullio..." He was determined to get it right, but not for the sake of this interhouse competition. He saw no homework as a punishment rather than a reward and didn't think that studying should be connected to compensation of any kind. He just...really wanted to get this spell right. The translucent pearly dome formed over his head once again, only this time it seemed to be sticking. "Bernie! Bernie! Look!" he chirped while tugging on her robes and pointing to his head. "I did it! Not as cool as yours though."

But still cool because HE had accomplished something!

Scampering over to the tank and taking the dive, Atlas happened to drop into the water just as some yellow marbles were being FLUNG through the water...and one of them just so happened to bounce against his bubble and POP...there it went. Spouting bubbles himself in surprise, Atlas grabbed at what it was that had struck him and felt his fist clench around it before he had to push up off the ground and resurface for air. Because someone had burst his bubble.

Once he was hanging over the edge of the tank, his blonde hair a soggy mop against his head, he opened his fist and saw...yellow. Well...oh well?

For some bizarre reason, Kizzy was HUGGING a fish. Phoebe splashed her way in the general direction of her little sister and sent a wave in her direction. It was hard to communicate underwater, but drawing a line across her throat!bubble made it very clear to KNOCK IT OFF. Gryffindor needed everyone in the game. EVEN FISH-HUGGING KIZZIES.

But anyway, onward. Phoebe pushed off toward the floor, grabbing at the red marbles with both hands. Maybe she could shove some of these green marbles under a rock, or something, but her big head bubble was making her a little too buoyant to stay underwater for long. She shot to the surface and dropped her marbles in the Gryffindor container.

Mamie was somewhat concerned about dropping her wand to the bottom of the fishtank, so she clambered all the way out to redo her bubblehead charm. Once her head was sufficiently airtight, she climbed back in with a splash! She was definitely going to get the right color marbles today.

She peered down through the water for a cluster of marbles...then pushed herself down through the water, more slowly than the last time, and feet first. That way her feet would encounter fish bubbles, not her eyes trying to see. Once at the bottom, she picked out three yellow marbles from among the various colors. Her bubble didn't seem to be shrinking yet, but she kicked off the bottom with her three marbles.

Once surface-side, she swam over to the Hufflepuff container and proudly deposited her treasure. She was pretty sure she had enough bubblehead left for another go.

Kinsay was going to name her new fish Bubbles. Maybe if she asked Professor Peralta nicely, she'd let her keep him. He was such a good lil fish to squish. In fact, Kizzy was having the time of her life squishing him underwater! So much so that she nearly forgot there was a game going on. Oops. Not until she saw Phoebe motioning and then felt the warm spell Aboli had sent her way.

...... Ew!

Did someone PEE???????????? And was it Atlas again!? (Sidenote: someone really needed to teach him how to control his bladder. Kinsay hadn't wet herself since age FOUR.)

So it was with absolute disgust (and also the immediate need to BREATHE) that Kinsay pushed off the bottom of the tank to resurface for AIR. But in all the fuss of getting air, she had accidentally let go of her squishable fish.

And now she had no marbles. No fish. And someone had PEED in the water!!! This was a disaster. And to make matters worse, all disappointment was plainly written on her face because she was bad at hiding things.

Heath made it out of the changing room just in time. He’d only been back a matter of moments before Professor Peralta moved on to the next activity. He listened carefully to the instructions, unsure what to make of it all. Swimming with fish sounded fun, but he wasn’t keen on the competition aspect. Competition of any kind made him nervous! There was always a sense of shame and failure that came with losing, and… memories of that disaster of a recycling game in Muggle Studies last term came back. Did Peralta have any idea how ruthlessly competitive some of these kids could be?

As he neared the edge of the tank, memories of Flying class reared their ugly head, and another, even scarier thought occurred to him. What if the hoods turned up and destroyed the tank with people (and fish) inside? Just like they did to the inflatable pool… He nervously glanced toward the door, half-expecting them to barge in at any moment; then his eyes flicked toward Professor Peralta as he raised his hand. “Professor, is this tank unbreakable?” he asked, meaning, had she reinforced it with spells?

Unbreakable or not, Heath knew he’d have to get in the tank sooner or later. Drawing his wand, he made a counterclockwise circle around his head and cast, “Viseo Ebullio!” With the bubble in place, he carefully climbed down the ladder into the water. The temperature was warmer than he’d expected, but he didn’t think much of it. He just wanted to get a marble before his spell wore off and before something bad happened!

He quickly swam down, his eyes scanning the water for any sign of blue marbles. He spotted a pair of them ahead on his right and swam in that direction. Just when he was almost near enough to reach, a fish appeared out of nowhere and swam across his path, leaving a trail of bubbles behind. Not now, fish! He waved a hand, trying to swat the bubbles away. As soon as the bobbles cleared, he grabbed the two marbles and swam back to the surface to put them in the jar.

"Bubbles like that cannot be popped by physical force, so you'd need magic to get you out from either inside or outside the bubble." So yes, Bernie could've gotten herself out, though she probably wouldn't have wanted to do that from the air unless she was good at the softening charm, or the cushioning one.

Huh. "Interesting. Thanks, Professor." Teddy gave a few nearby students a look as if to say, You heard that, right? Disarm the bad guys first, bubble them second? Yes? Cool. On the surface, Teddy saw it as information a first year could use for defense in a pinch, if nothing else. Hopefully they'd go practice it on each other after seeing how wild Bernie's experience was.

Teddy had suited up without concern for his physical appearance, but felt awfully sorry for those who had voiced their insecurities. Brave of them, he thought, and he admired every one of them, even the vain ones.

The task itself seemed simple enough, although the Ravenclaw had become keenly aware of the door - he caught himself subconsciously glancing at it, wondering how the creeps would react to this sight. Surely they would make it worse somehow; Teddy wasn't sure how, though, which made his anxiety levels rise. He needed to be able to predict what might come to protect his family and friends. There was nothing more important than that - especially not a battle-of-the-houses class activity. He didn't mind homework.

Not at all, and before he'd given it any thought, Teddy had climbed into the tank and swam over to Kiz, wand in hand.

"Hey, hey," he started, seeking to soothe the horror off her face, "It's okay. We're okay. Come on, do this just like me." Teddy gave an encouraging big-brother smile and a wonky sort of nudge underwater to entice Kiz to get her wand at the ready, too. "Counter-clockwise. Confident. Cool," he instructed lowly as to not attract the attention of their peers. "Use those fish as your motivation. The better your bubble, the longer you get to mingle with them! You'll have to introduce me to your new friend when we get down there." His smile turned a little lopsided, vaguely playful. "You've got this. Viseo Ebullio." Coupled with a deliberate wave of the wand, his bubble was ready to go.

How about it, Kiz?

Kiz didn't want to hop out of the water and risk any trouble, but she also wasn't having much fun anymore. So when Teddy began to swim over, Kiz worked to meet him halfway. And when he spoke, Kinsay was listening (or at least she was telling herself that she was listening), but the look of horror on her face stayed firmly in place. It had little to do with the spell that she had convinced herself she couldn't do (or maybe it had something to do with this too). No, this time there were more pressing horrors at hand.

"But Teddy, someone PEED !!!" It was meant to be a whisper, but she was a little louder than she meant to be.

IN. THE. WATER.

SOMEONE PEED IN THE WATER!!!!!

Default No marbles. C's just swimming with the fishies xD
~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.

Three green marbles deposited for Slytherin, Claaudine dived back down again. Her focus for now was her Charm. Was it still strong enough? A few breaths told her that it seemed to be for there was no water seeping through. Perfect. Her focus turned to her surroundings. She saw familiar faces: Heath, Mamie, Kizzy... but Claudine being Claudine stayed clear of the crowd. Introvert here, after all. Besides, she was more inclined to swim with the fishes.

And swim with the fishes she did. There was another school passing and very much distracted and admiring their colours, she swam slowly behind them. They didn’t seem to notice her, or they didn’t care for her presence. Whatever.

Claudine was having fun.

The activity was momentarily forgotten.

Which came first, the phoenix or the flame?

Ash dived back into the tank. She picked up 2 marbles. But then she got bored. She sorta abandoned the activity to swim around and do cartwheels and cool water stuff. Her bubble burst. And then she swam around some more. Perks of being a swimmer. BUT THEN... someone peed in the water, according to someone????? yuck. Was it even true? Either way, Ash got out of the tank. Quickly.

Mamie was mentally preparing herself for another dive and the grabbing of more yellow marbles when she heard Kinsay announce...somebody had peed?! In the pool water tank? They were all old enough to hold it...or pee before getting in the water!

She swam over to Kinsay, a little doggy paddle to avoid kicking any fish or other students. "Who peed?" she asked. The marbles were forgotten. She didn't want to dive in pee-infested water, bubblehead charm or not. Maybe Peralta could...clean the water? She wasn't sure how that would even work.

Unless...had Kinsay been talking about fish pee? Or her own?

"Not unbreakable, Mr. Jones. It is reinforced, though. It'd take a sizable force to break it, don't worry." She was confident the tank would survive this activity without a problem.

Neva had been watching the kids, a mixture of amusement and pity playing on her face. Some of them were hopeless. Completely. Devastatingly so. They still had the cute going for them, at least.

...Until the mention of pee.

Pardon?

"EVERYONE OUT!" Pee? Someone peed in the tank? With a shudder, the Charms Professor waved the kids out of the water and then turned her wand towards the surface, making sure no traces of this rumored pee could've remained.

Ew.

Pausing to compose herself, the brunette looked around for the culprit. Her money was on Flamsteed. She'd heard things. "There will be no relieving yourself in the water, thank you. If you need to use the loo, go. Otherwise, you've got about fifteen more minutes to dive. Marble updates are on the board." Pee. ...Unbelievable.

Though Teddy's speech was incredibly motivational, Kinsay could not in good conscience, let them continue swimming in pee infested water!! So of course, she started swimming to the side of the tank, tugging on Teddy all the while before climbing out of the water. Ew. So gross!!!!!

And when Mamie came over to ask about the pee-er, Kinsay just gave her a big shrug. "I don't know." But she did turn to pointedly look at ATLAS. He had a reputation for peeing, so Kinsay wouldn't exactly be surprised.

Still gross though.

Hopefully Atlas was paying attention when Professor Peralta insisted using the LOO. Kinsay didn't need reminders like that because she was responsible and would never pee herself, but maybe Atlas never learned these things. Even Artemis didn't go around peeing everywhere like that. Also. Kizzy was going to wait for someone else to dive into the water first before she did the same. Just in case.

Aboli was happily going after some more green marbles, the jet of hot air forgotten as Peralta called them all out. She had no idea what chaos she had caused; she merely made a disgusted face at the mention of PEE. WHICH of the first years had done?! She eyed them all with distaste. SERIOUSLY? Was nothing SACRED?

Ugh.

Once that was cleared up, Aboli hopped back into the water, kicking her feet rapidly to propel her downward quickly. She was elbowing fish out of the way. Excuse you, yes, get out the way. Claudine better get her act together, too, for Aboli had SEEN her getting distracted. Aboli was about to send HER a warning hex as well. MERLIN.

Grabbing one green marble, Aboli swam around looking for another before she went back to the surface.

It looked FUN and kind of reminded him of those inflatable things you could walk inside and roll around in and bounce off things. Like...it looked like a good time. Human hamster balls! Maybe they could use those and roll there way to freedom across the lake?

Atlas still had not given up thinking of alternate plans, but the plans had to be foolproof.

So, Atlas was moving back over towards the other Gryffindor - because yes, he WAS going to stick to her for the time being and observe her movements and try to learn from her. She was his current mentor of the moment, okay?

He still hadn't managed to perform a successful bubblehead charm, so the coming activity was going to be rather hit and miss, but once he was riiiiiiiiiiiiight up alongside the fifth year again he gave the spell another try. "Viseo Ebullio..." He was determined to get it right, but not for the sake of this interhouse competition. He saw no homework as a punishment rather than a reward and didn't think that studying should be connected to compensation of any kind. He just...really wanted to get this spell right. The translucent pearly dome formed over his head once again, only this time it seemed to be sticking. "Bernie! Bernie! Look!" he chirped while tugging on her robes and pointing to his head. "I did it! Not as cool as yours though."

But still cool because HE had accomplished something!

Scampering over to the tank and taking the dive, Atlas happened to drop into the water just as some yellow marbles were being FLUNG through the water...and one of them just so happened to bounce against his bubble and POP...there it went. Spouting bubbles himself in surprise, Atlas grabbed at what it was that had struck him and felt his fist clench around it before he had to push up off the ground and resurface for air. Because someone had burst his bubble.

Once he was hanging over the edge of the tank, his blonde hair a soggy mop against his head, he opened his fist and saw...yellow. Well...oh well?


Bernie had spent an INORDINATELY long time behind the changing screen, putting her wetsuit on, trying (and failing) to make it look better, and then secretly practicing the bubble head charm in the privacy of this area so that no one else in the room could see her fail (again). It was embarrassing, okay? She was good at magic, she was. SHE WAS.

Once she had something of a grip on the spell, she slunk out to the tank where everyone else (and Atlas Flamsteed) were playing the game. "WELL DONE," she cheered the boy, even though he didn't realize he was doing an entirely different spell from her ebublio earlier. Now Bernie had to get in the tank after someone's peepee incident (was that ALSO Atlas's fault? She wanted to say it wasn't, but he did seem like the likely culprit?). And she had to make it look like she'd been trying to find marbles all along instead of what she'd really been doing (hiding, avoiding all work/punishment, lingering in the corner, etc.).

Bernie took a breath and pointed her wand at her face, C A L M L Y stating, "Viseo Ebullio." No extra syllables or letters, no thank you. Finally, a bubble appeared around her mouth and nose, satisfactorily allowing her to breathe as she climbed into the giant tank.

Did Bernie dive for any marbles, though? No, that was also a no for her. She swam elegantly (or so she imagined, in her head; the reality was that she looked more like an awkward flying squirrel propelling itself through the air) toward the fish in the corner. Hah. Fishies!!!!!!

Ash didn't see any pee. Maybe it was a false alarm caused by someone being overdramatic. Whatever it was was gone now. She hopped back into the pool and did some cartwheels. Then she grabbed the three nearest blue marbles she could find and got straight back out. Juuuust in case whoever had panicked was telling the truth.

Violet's first dive had gone swimmingly (ha ha!). Thanking Miss Howard for having insisted she learn to swim all those years ago, she dived straight down to the bottom, located 3 green marbles, and swam back up to put them in the Slytherin jar.

But the second time, just when she had more green marbles in sight, she was intercepted by a fish, which blew a strong stream of bubbles right into her face. Well, not her face--that was covered by the magical bubble-head--but the stream of bubbles did obscure her vision. Nearly blinded by the bubbles, she grappled along the bottom of the tank in the place where she'd seen the marbles, clutched some of them, and fought her way back up to the surface.

Violet had thought she had 3 more green marbles, but in the confusion, she'd only picked up 2, plus one red one. Sighing, she let the red marble fall back down to the bottom and put her remaining 2 green marbles in the jar.

Constant Vigilance! O_O AWAKE!

Mamie took advantage of her time out of the fish tank to redo her bubble charm...the pee distraction had given her previous charm time to wear off. "Viseo ebullio..." Plus, she discovered that there was a way to remove pee from water using magic. Take that, Muggle swimming pools.

When they were cleared back into the tank, she plunged immediately underwater, kicking and pushing herself to the bottom. She found one yellow marble, then waited for a fish to swim out of her way to find some more.

There! Two more yellow marbles.

She claimed them, making sure all three were tucked securely into her fist before pushing off the bottom of the tank. Once she surfaced, she deposited the three yellow marbles in the Hufflepuff jar. Peralta had said fifteen minutes...that meant she probably had time for at least another dive, right?

Yeah, Claudine heard Kizzy, and she was immediately grossed out. While she was thankful that her face was encased in a bubble, she was aware that the rest of her was exposed to the urine. Ugh! GROSS. The fifth year was already kicking for the surface, abandoning the pretty fishes, even before Peralta had called them out. Once she broke the surface, she ended the Charm and climbed out of the tank.

Really. Who was the disgusting and immature person around here. Claudine glared around at the classmates. She wished Peralta had found the culprit and punished them. Anyway. After a few students had dived back in, Claudine took her turn and went immediately off in search of green marbles. after successfully recasting the Charm.

One was snagged up about a minute into the dive, and another was snagged about three minutes after. Up Claudine went to deposit them.

Getting her act together, Aboli <3

Heath nodded in reply to Professor Peralta’s answer. Hearing that the tank was reinforced eased his mind somewhat; he just hoped Rosier’s hood brood wouldn’t turn up and provide the sizable force necessary to break it! After placing his marbles from the first dive in the jar, he paused for a moment to check his bubble. It was still intact and didn’t appear to be shrinking, so there was no need to recast the spell yet. Hopefully it would survive one more dive!

He was about to go back down when Peralta ordered everyone out of the tank. What? Somebody peed?!? YUCK! He was definitely taking a shower (or three) after this class! Once that disgusting matter was taken care of, he climbed back into the tank and swam downward in search of blue marbles. So far… nothing.

As Heath changed directions, a colorful blur swirled around his head. It took him only seconds to realize the blur was a fish. Go away, fish! He tried to swim away, but the fish followed him around like a puppy. He smiled a little, unable to resist giving the fish a little pat on the head because hey, how often do you get to pet a fish? The fish nudged his hand and swam away. Okay, fish. Lead the way, he thought, swimming along behind it.

He followed the fish for a short distance, keeping an eye out for marbles until he saw a trio of blue ones close together. The fish had led him right to them. Good fishy! He paused just long enough to give it another pat before scooping up the marbles and swimming to the surface. There, three more Ravenclaw marbles in the jar!

Though everyone seemed to be jumping back into the water, Kinsay James was very skeptical. What if the person who peed just did it again??? It was a VERY logical concern. It didn't matter though because before she went into the water again, she had a very important question to ask of their professor.

"Professor Peralta? If I catch a fish, can I keep it?"

Please? Please please please please?

Oh, how we drift away from our friends. And the ones back home play remember when

Thankfully, Fiona had not been in the fish tank during its contamination. Her eyes flared rather dangerously at the thought of someone being so disgusting. It was very lucky that she had good self-control, otherwise, the culprit might have been hexed slightly.

Fiona repeated the counterclockwise movement and said, “Viseo Ebullio!” so that she could dive for more green marbles. Entering the tank, Fiona dove so that she was at the deepest depths and began her quest.

Pushing past a large purple fish with black markings, Fiona found a pair of green marbles. Quickly, she collected them before looking around for a third and final marble. It was taking longer than she would have liked but much to her joy, her last marble was found inches away from where she had found the previous two.

She returned to the surface, exited the tank and cast, "Finite" before depositing the three green marbles in the Slytherin jar.

Bernie just kept swimming, swimming, swimming, though once again it should be noted that she had terrible form and now looked more like an awkward tadpole than anything properly humanoid.

She heard Kinsay James' question from outside the tank and honestly it motivated her to swim HARDER. Because you know what she was going to do when she caught a fish? EAT IT. She was going to EAT IT right in front of the younger girl. Bernie aggressively paddled up to a fish in the corner of the tank, one that was blowing bubbles on her, and she began flailing at it in an attempt to smush it against the glass. IF ONLY SHE'D BROUGHT HER WAND IN THE TANK WITH HER. Then she could just stun the dumb thing.

It took some time and...well, the fish was slippery and hard to hold, but she HAD IT currently flat between the two of her hands. Did it count for points? What could she do with this fish until dinnertime? Could she put it in a baggie and carry it around the school? These were the questions SHE would ask the professor, even though the woman worked for Rosier and all.

Dahlia had been waiting her turn to re-enter the tank when shouts of someone peeing in the water pretty much took the fun right out of that. Honestly she didn't even want to know, whether it was true or not... nope, please don't tell her. The important piece of information in the current situation was how quickly Professor Peralta had taken care of it. Simple wand work and everything was clean once more.

Now that everything was good again... Lia wasted no more time. Pulling out her wand she made the circle motion around her head, “Viseo Ebullio". Dropping down into the water, the Ravenclaw headed straight down towards the bottom of the tank once again. Blue. Blue. Where were those blue marbles.

She reached out a hand to shift some green and yellow marbles aside. Blue... Where were the bl-

Fishie! Just like the first time. Fish were all up in her face. This had to be some sort of plot against her. Blue eyes followed the fish and without even thinking about what she was doing, Lia had started to swim alongside them.

Did they know how pretty they all were? Did they have names? Could they keep them?!

So many thoughts were running through her head that she nearly forgot the actually reason she was even in the water. Only when she happened to glance at the bottom of the tank and see two blue marbles did she remember. Be right back, fishies!

As quick as she could, she swam downwards and scooped up the two marbles, bringing them back up with her. Trying not to get completely distracted this time, Lia kept swimming until her head broke the surface of the water. Climbing out and down the ladder, she tossed the two marbles into the pail then ended the bubblehead charm with her wand.

Well, one thing was becoming abundantly clear during all of this and that was that the Gryffindors were way too easily distracted by the fish to be any kind of real competition for the other houses. They were like dogs in a park full of squirrels. Hopeless.

Speaking of. "Unfortunately, Miss James, these fish are only temporary." She paused, considering. "But if you're truly interested, I'd suggest you ask Professor Carton about piscifors."

Glancing at her watch, Neva noted that it was time to wrap things up. "Alright everyone, time!" She moved over to the jars of marbles so that no more could be added. "Everyone out of the water. Please do not attempt to take a fish with you." Miss Grantham was kind of freaking her out with the way she was eyeing the fish, actually. While they exited, the charms professor updated the totals and added the final count to the board.

Hufflepuff: 7
Slytherin: 21
Gryffindor: 3
Ravenclaw: 19

"I'd like to give a big congratulations to Slytherin house for winning today's little competition. As for the rest of you, thank you for your efforts and tonight's assignment is at the bottom of the board." A little light reading to prep for next class. "Please remember that the only way to master a spell is to practice, so I suggest you do just that. Now go on and change, you don't want to be late for your next class. Wet suits can be hung on the hooks in the dressing rooms." With that, class was finished. No one had been hexed. No threats. It was a nice change of pace.


OOC: Thanks for coming, friends! I'll leave class open for another hour or so in case you want to RP leaving <3
