Krissy raised her hand quickly " An ankle holster is common, but I don't think it to be very useful unless it holds a spare wand." Krissy shrugged | "You are correct. Could you come up to the front of the class please." Quote:

Cam raised his hand. "A belt holster?" | "Or better known as a hip holster. Please come up to the front of the class." Quote:

Lettie raised her hand, "Is there also one for around the waist? Kind of like how a belt would be?" She wasn't entirely sure, but it was the best thing she could think of. | "Yes there is Miss Dubois, could you also please make your way to the front of the class." Quote:

Raiden returned to his seat and raised his hand immediately. "Uhm... that girl over there pointed out that you could use a leg holster sir..." He thought for a second. "It would be a bit inconvenient to have to bend down to get your wand in some cases, especially in one on one combat when there's nobody to back you up, but... it's an option. And I suppose that's only if it's around your ankle. It could be on the side of your leg, but then it would have to be outside your robes, wouldn't it? And then it would be obvious..." | Marcus nodded at the young boy. "Yes you are correct and we will demonstrate that in a moment. What is your name by the way?" Quote:

Cela looked around, knowing full well that people were only supposed to have one wand, not that she had more than one or needed more than one, "...weapon. It's easy to reach and keeps the wand safe when it's between your shoulderblades, the only thing is that it's really obvious when you draw it so your opponent might be able to stop you before you even get your hand on your wand." | "Excellent answer answer Miss Toussaint and you correct in your assumptions. Although I could not imagine a student needing more than one wand." Marcus smiled at the bright Ravenclaw. Quote:

Hayley thought for a moment, before thinking back to some of those muggle wild-west books her parents had let her read, raising her hand, she answered what she thought my be a legitimate answer, "Well Sir, there are waist holsters, right?" How many kinds of holsters could there be? Waist, wrist, ankle?!... | "Yes there are Miss." Quote:

Loss of certain body parts!? Clifford's face paled at the thought alone and he gulped nervously. That was the last time he shoved his wand down the back of his trousers. He was getting himself one of those things Celandine had. Yup. He wanted to keep ALL his body parts thank you very much. Shuddering a little, Clifford raised his hand, "Can you get one to put on your leg?" | "You can indeed Mr Carden. A lot better than down your pants eh?" Marcus chuckled at the Head Boy. Quote:

Oh, so she and her classmates had definitely been correct. Celandine and her wrist holster had stolen the show! Anna watched in amazement as the professor demonstrated his own wrist holster. She had to admit, that method of wand-drawing was really awesome! She'd have to get her one of those holsters sooner or later. Wonder if Celandine had an extra one?
Raising her hand, Anna said, "I've read that there are holsters you can attach to your belt. Although that wouldn't necessarily be the fastest and most effective manner of drawing a wand, I suppose those who still choose to have it there would use the belt-clipped holster." | "You are right Miss Greingoth, but with practice it becomes second nature to draw from a hip holster."

"And chest hosters," Diane added. No matter if she was repeating herself. Many here had already come up with the answers she could provide. | "Chest holsters? I have never heard of one of those before but I suppose you could have a chest holster. Good answer." Quote:

Miranda raised her hand "Sir, are there holsters that go around your...uh, yourself, like the ones you see in those action movies and they pull out their bangbang's from under their armpits to protect themselves?"
Her dad, being a wizard, usually sat and watched movies. Specially James Bond movies. Much to the annoyance of her mother. Snort. | Marcus felt his lips twitch into a smile at the girl's analogy of the muggle weapon. "Yes your are correct. Please come up to the front of the class." Quote:

LIES UPON LIIIIES UPON DECEIT UPON LIIIIIIES!
Truth be told, Jake never kept his wand anywhere, other than his hand. It was just natural. But right now there were more important things to attend to. He raised his hand. "What's a holster?"
Sure... people kept talking about it and Lawson showed them it, but he didn't get it. Plus, there weren't many practical places to keep one... imagine on on the leg, you'd have to hitch the leg up and stuff. |
Marcus turned to Jacob and let a sigh of exasperation. "Were you asleep when we discussed holsters and what they were used for Mr Upstead. I just finished demonstrating what a wrist holster looks like. I suggest you pay closer attention Mr Upstead, you still have to meet me later in the dueling arena. You might just find this lesson useful." |
