| | The Spare Locker Room
At one end of the stadium is a massive gate that leads to the team locker rooms, but at the very end of the corridor are two doors. One is marked 'Equipment' while the other has an old sign barely hanging onto it which reads 'Locker Room.' It is through this door that you find a spare locker room which hasn't been used in years. Old wooden lockers with peeling magenta paint line one grubby wall. The floor is dusty and is speckled with magenta paint flecks. A straight wooden bench is fixiated to the floor but looks a bit splintery. Upon closer examination, of the room you notice that players of years past have left their marks on the room. On the bench you notice the word "Chudley Cannons Rule" etched in large letters with the initials R.B.W. below it. Just beware of the spiders and if you hear a noise, it might be a stray goat seeking shelter from the elements. |

Nia raised her hand. "To stop small insects and such going in your mouth and eyes, Professor," she answered with a smile. "Goggles can help protect your eyes from other attacks too, I guess."

That, and Goggles look super cool" he pointed to his which when put on, made him look distinctly like a curly blond insect himself.

Reese rasied her hand when Professor Vindictus asked another question. "You should wear goggles and close you mouth while your flying,so nothing goes into you eyes or mouth while you're flying.Like insects and stuff." She wouldn't want anything flying into her mouth while she was up in the air.Yuk!

Cale knew he wasn't gonna get all 5 points since he didn't use a broom, but that was ok. He shook it off--with his luck, he would have caused seriously damage to Tobi without even trying and then he'd feel guilty. That was never fun. He raised his hand for the next question as he unconsciously blushed for being scolded by Vindictus. "Well, you should wear goggles to protect your eyes from bugs, plus when you're flying that fast the wind can irritate them too, I'll bet," he added. "And close your mouth so the bugs don't fly into your mouth. Or the snitch. I heard that's happened before," he said.

| The Kisapaths | Sila!Roti | -2 | TouchableHair | ToiletPaperGuy | QueenOfConfusion Quickly raising her hand Nancy said while cocking her head slightly to the side, "Uhm...well, you should fly with your mouth closed so you don't eat bugs or flies or other things which fly through the air, I guess. Well, and the goggles should be worn so that your eyes don't start to water due to the cold air and...uhm...well, so that nothing can come into your eye which would then of course affect your ability to see properly." |

| Vanessa the Snot Girl l Rachels Rule | rock,tumble,&roll ❆ adorable coffee bean Vanessa thought for a moment before raising her hand. "You'd wear googles so that your eyesight wouldn't get impaired, which could be dangerous when you were up in the air. You'd close your mouth to make sure that no debris goes in, which could potentially cause you to choke or something."

She raised her hand "Also the air can get a bit cold at the altitudes you are flying and cold air can burn your lungs if you take it in too quickly with an open mouth." She added,.

Lyra placed her hand over her mouth and began to giggle at Cale having permission to smack Tobi. The class was already fun and exciting not that she enjoyed watching people being smacked around by a broom but just in general. Vindictus was just...cool.
Lyra raised her hand, still giggling. "For the fear of swallowing bugs and to protect your eyes from any debri that might be in the air," she said but then added. "And in case it rains too."

Qaz raised her hand again and offered another suggestion 'Plus, an open mouth creates resistance and could slow you down a bit. That certainly wouldn't do on the Quidditch Pitch!' |

"Two points for each of your answers," Vindictus said and wondered where Clifford was. Oh, well. It was up to him to be the jokester. "Now the only time you should open your mouth is when you're eager for a crunchy snack during a game."
He walked around the old locker room with his hands on his hips. "Does everyone have their own broomsticks? If not, you'll need to use one of the school brooms. Anything else you need to know before we go outside?"

She nodded at him. Her grandfather owned a broom company, of course she had her own broom. And she helped design the broom. She loved her broom.

Lyra nodded her head as she had her own broom in hand. First year she had her own broom and it was one that she was QUITE proud of. It took a long time to save her money for it and she was going to make sure and take good care.

Cale nodded. He had flown his new broom quite a lot at his house before summer ended, and he was eager to fly it on Hogwarts grounds for the first time. His broom was so much cooler than the school brooms anyways. He waited patiently for Vindictus to take them outside so they could get started.

| The Kisapaths | Sila!Roti | -2 | TouchableHair | ToiletPaperGuy | QueenOfConfusion Nancy nodded enthusiastically while holding her broom slightly in the air to show the professor that she did in fact have her own broomstick with her, the one Camira had given her some time last term. She then waited patiently for Professor Vindictus to give further instructions. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: *whistle* | NeeNee Omniscient Omnipotent Pie Maker Tobi's oversized body was humming with anticipation.
"I'm good. Is it time yet?" Is it time yet Is it time yet?
You can only fly so much when you run a Muggle/Wizard Inn. He was long overdue to get back in the sky, in his own opinion.

"Okay then! Everyone to the Stadium for some flying," Vindictus said and held the door open. "Don't even think of taking off until I give you the command."
OOC: Intermediate Flying thread is now open.

Finally, they were ready to fly. Bursting with excitement, Mariel clutched her broom in her left hand and, with a grin, whispered, "Congratulations," as she walked past Nancy. She hadn't talked to her Slytherin friend since she had seen the Quidditch rosters posted. She then walked out of the open door and headed towards the stadium, waiting for further instructions.

Cale grinned as Vindictus opened the door for them to leave. Having completely forgot about his little incident with Tobi now, he grabbed his broom and headed out onto the pitch, taking a deep breath of the fresh air as he stepped out onto the grass.
