Kylie nodded, she hadn't ever actually gotten to know Mina... but no time like the present!

She kept her head to the project. The more people that came, the more difficult it would be to balance all the weight. And the bigger they would have to make their raft.

Oy.

"Maybe we should save some weight on the rope and just double up on sticking and binding charms. After all... charms don't weigh anything.. rope does... and with all these people..." Kylie didn't want to kick a soul out of the group. The group was PERFECT, all friends who were all willing to work together. She just figured that rope, especially wet rope, could get heavy.

And rope didn't float like wood did.

So far, so good Sho thought as the one called Chosen showed them the designs. " Those...they look very ark-y." Sho said, nodding a little. She couldn't say anything against them, really because well she couldn't draw very well herself.

She was more preoccupied with the fact that Brinkley still hadn't taken that potion and was looking more and more frazzled with each passing moment. But thank GOODNESS he was finally seeing the light and making some gesture that she took to mean he wanted the potion.


While Brink calmed himself down, Sho paid attention to Raiden's questions. Was she good...at anything? She wasn't sure. " I can kind of do sticking charms. But I'm not super good at it." She said honestly. " I think we're going to need...a lot of rope, actually. And we're going to have to curve up the edges if we want it to look all ark like." She then wondered if maybe no one cared that it was actually rounded like the ark. Maybe they just wanted it to be big.

Suddenly, Brinkley was speaking. To everyone. In a calm, almost amused voice. Blinking, Sho stared at Brink, obviously confused. She'd never before seen a Calming Draught work so well. It almost changed his personality entirely.

Utterly fascinating.

Her eyes widened and she looked at Raiden as if to ask how strong that potion was just as Brink's arm found its way around her shoulders. " Um. yeah. We'll do sticking charms. " She said, smiling a little and then turning to Grayson. " Well. We could ask her what she wants to do." She offered, still a bit bewildered by the Calming Draught version of Brinkley.

Okay, Kylie was officially crazy. Destiny took a few steps away from her, so SHE wouldn't catch the crazy. Not thank you, Destiny liked to be NORMAL. Adjusting her duckie floatie a bit, Destiny gave a salute to HER group. She was the Captain and all.

And by being Captain meant she didn't have to do any of the raft building. She would just overlook her minions friends progress, and if they needed it, she would be the one to give them all a kick in their backsides. Yeah, she might like the Captaincy a liiiiiittle too much.

Destiny nodded, in a very Captain way, in approval at Evelyn's request for sides on the raft. She didn't want her crew members falling off and all! She did like the idea of having a boat better, but since she wasn't actually building the thing, she really had no say. "We could always tie you to the raft, if you are afraid of falling off." she smirked. "Unless there is a better way." Which there was, most likely. And there was. Marie had suggested having poles on the sides, and Destiny once again nodded in approval. Now they just needed to start the building.

"Let's go!" she clapped her hands together, "Get to work people!" Yeah, they could argue over what they were going to do and use to build this thing.

Destiny would just start on the flag for their raft..

..a flag with HER face on it.

No appreciating the day? No? Now, that was too bad. But what could you do? it wasn't like she just go and boss everyone around; it wasn't like she ~rolled~ in all honesty, so for all she cared they could just...

... Oh. Brinkley was being... weird. He was being like... like... friendly.

Jack frowned, obviously displeased at the entire ordeal, and definitely not in the mood for singing. Besides, the only thing that she would lure would most likely be Toussaint's weregoat, a few mermaids that would sink their ark and possibly a centaur from the forbidden forest.

Possibly.

Still frowning and then frowning some more at the sight of Legend Chosen's drawings, she followed Chez, to lay out the boards.

Patroclus smiled as he was welcomed to the group with Open arms!

Patroclus laughed at Destiny's comment on the brightness of Carters floatie, "They really bring out your eyes, Mate!", as he nudged him, "And don't lie you love 'em!"

The group was underway tossing out possible ways to build the raft/boat, and Patroclus had a suggestion to put Evelyn's mind at ease, "By putting side, on it may cause too much weight, so an easy and effective solution," He winked at her, "Would be to make a rope guard rail, using excess rope! Like a small fence all the way round!"
Patroclus was hit with an excellent Idea, "In honour of our Captain, Destiny I suggest we name the raft after he beloved pet, Captain Walker D. Plank!"

...Merlin help them. Raiden half-stared at the drawings done by Legend before looking at the rest of the group. This wasn't so much a design as it was... well... it looked like a steak. A steak that hadn't been cooked in the middle.

"Er. Alrighty then." Raiden looked at the others in the group. A basic outline was... good... but they still had to know how long to make it and stuff. Raiden glanced at the boards and then recounted the people in their group.

"Legend, could you... uhmmm... help Chez set out the boards. Because you're the one who knows best what it's supposed to look like." And he was a boy. Jack shouldn't be lifting boards around. She was... slight. She didn't look as if she should be dragging them around. And even though Chez and Legend didn't seem to get along... well they were all right there so if they tried anything, he'd probably hex one of them. "Greyson can help with the sticking charms too, I guess? And... actually I was wondering a bit about something, so... Brink. And Sho."

It was good that Brinkley was recovered. But no, no they would not have animals on their boat. They'd be lucky if there was enough room for all of them. And unless they were planning on rowing the entire way across, without any help... Raiden stepped closer to Sho and Brink and gave his hand a little wave to get their attention.

"Jack, do you think you could go over there and get a few of those oars, and some of the canvas?" They were lighter than the boards, most likely, and Jack was Ravenclaw enough to think to levitate them, right? He turned his attention to Brinkley and Sho. "We should probably have like... some kind of sail? Because rowing is tiring." He glanced at Legend's drawings again. "Where would we put it, though?"

It couldn't be too close to the back, but the front seemed like a terrible idea, too.

Looking over at the pile of logs she seen Mina standing there... alone. "Hey Mina, wanna come work with us?" They had room for one more in their group, right?
Mina looked over as she head someone calling her name. Turning completely, she realized it was Marie. "Hey Marie," she replied as she made her way over. "Sure, but is it okay? I wouldn't want to intrude or anything."

Chez shot a glance of ice cold death to Raiden. Not particularly because he was now working with Legend... but because he was stripped of the opportunity to speak to a female.

HE NEEDED PRACTICE. Plus she was, cute? Yeah, cute.

"Uh... I guess you're needed elsewhere." Chez said with a vague frown and flushed face, looking over as Legend made his way. Excellent.

"Get out your wand," Chez said to Legend coldly, "These boards need to be airtight." He bend down and started to set them in a platform like fashion. "And they need to be curved... concave. I don't know the charm for that though."

He knew little charms. He was generally AWFUL at that subject.

"If I had a knife I could do it by hand." That was Chez' motto. Do it by hand. Not wand, a bit sad really.

Mwaha! Marie was her favorite right now. Of course it wouldn't be a problem that they put at least ONE side up. She really didn't feel like being pushed into the water. Who knows what kind of creatures there is in the deep end of the lake...

At the mention of adding someone else to the group though, Evelyn's eyes widened as she counted how many there were. Seven of them. They were all going to be squished onto this raft. There needed to be sides because if any of them got into arguments and shoving occurred...hmmm.

"You sure that the raft will hold and fit seven people on it? Think we should make two rafts?" she asked, glancing around at everyone before suddenly thinking of something. "Wait, are we gunna have that thing in the front that looks like a really big flag but really it's used to make the boats move?" That thing, that the wind blows against and pulls the boat forward! Except, they were making a raft... "Do those even go on rafts?"

And now Patroclus was her favorite in the group. Rope sides she guessed would be good enough if she couldn't have a regular side, and judging by everyone's response, that wasn't going to happen. So rope sides it was! Hopefully.

Listening to Arya suggestions, she nodded along. Speed and comfort. That sounded admirable in a boat. "Yeah I totally agree." Looking around at what they had at their disposal, she tried to think of the best way to make a small craft that would go fast.

Scratching her head, she put her mind to thinking. "I'm guessing the fastest boat would be a small one..." she mused aloud. "But not too small, since we want to be able to lay around..."

They could always tie wood together but that seemed a bit unsafe. And what if water leaked through? What if their boat sank? Well actually taht would be fun- but sadly against what they were supposed to do.

It was while pondering these ideas that her gaze fell on a large fallen trunk not too far off. Hmmm...

Excited now, she poked her friend and pointed to it."Hey crazy idea, but what if we work on that trunk? Its huge and we can both fit in it if we hollow it out.." Her mind reeling she continued quickly. " We could use Defodio and stuff that way we don't have to worry about holes between the wood and then we can add a mast and use the canvas for a sail and make a ruttter and..."

And she was off rambling on and nodding her head. Turning to her friend, with an aura of question marks every where she brought up her hands smiling ruefully. "What do you think?"
Shifting her feet on the pile of wood, she listened to Ivory speak. Her eyes continued to scan the materials they had at thier dissposal. There was a lot of things the two of them could use, and even more ideas running around in her head.

Her mind wondering a bit, she almost didn't catch what her friend was saying about the tree trunk. Her eyes lighting up, she nodded her head in agreement. "That sounds like a great idea, and we can have a square hole in the middle on the floor so we can see the creatures below. It will have a clear covering, of course." Taking her friend's hand, she climbed down the pile of wood and over to the log.

Running her hand through her hair, she pulled out her wand and twirled it between her fingers. "So where shall we start?"

Annnd by the look on everyone's faces they hated his drawings. That was alright. They were pretty...ugly. "Thanks it's suppose to look like an Ark." He replied to that....Sho girl.

Only this once would Legend admit to doing something horrible. Everything else he did was perfect. Obviously.

Float or drown? THAT was the spirit!! Brinkley was finally understanding things! There was no point in being nervous. Everyone was doing some reassigning. And he really didn't want to listen to Brink....he seemed out of it from the potion. Turning to Raiden (the only people who seemed sane in this group) Legend nodded. "Finne I'll work with him."

Then maybe later they could go into the forest and capture Unicorns for the Ark and he could fed Chez to a Thestral. Maybe if he was lucky.

Waving his wand he levitated some more boards to where Czes was. "Alright we need like room for about...6 or 7 people to like sit. Then we need room for that sail. Hee had no clue. That's what his drawings looked like though. Oh and Chez was actually giving good ideas for once.

"Like concave how? Shouldn't they be flat and the end and side of the Ark be curved?" Reaching into his pocket Legend pulled out his pocket knife and passed it to the Hufflepuff. "Don't ask why I have that."

Really. Don't

Oh! Patroclus was a GENIUS double time! Not only did he have the solution for her crew members falling off the raft, he also came up with the name of the raft! Destiny nodded her head in approval at both suggestions. But.."How in the name of Merlin do we get the rope to stay up?" It seemed to her they were still going to need some type of pole thing..to hold up the ropes. "The name of the raft, good thinking, buddy!" she gave him a thumbs up. If someone argued over the name, they would..walk the plank!

Yeah! Their raft should totally have a plank!

Ohhh, ANOTHER person!? Sweet Merlin! Their raft was going to sink with all these people on it! Heh, it would be quite fun actually, so Destiny chose to ignore it. If the raft sunk, she would be fine. She had a floatie and all.

Leaning closer to Evelyn, she dropped her voice into a whisper, "If there isn't enough room on the raft, I say we push the people off. Starting with the Gryffindors." That solved THAT problem, now just to figure out what flag thing she was talking about. "Wait! We have to get this raft to MOVE!?"

Why didn't someone mention this EARLIER!?

Hearing a whisper quite close by, Evelyn turned her head just the slightest to see Destiny there. Bahahaha! Brilliant idea of course. Except Patroclus. They didn't have to push him off. "Perhaps the Ravenclaw as well." she whispered quietly back with a small smirk/smile as she looked back around at the others. Hmm, maybe even the Hufflepuff too. No! No no no. Stupid idea.

Standing there quietly, Evelyn looked up at the sun for a moment, grimacing at the heat, that is until... ROFL! "Where have you been the whole lesson? How do you think we're to get to the other side of the lake?" she asked Destiny, laughing and nudging her slightly. Oh, wait no bad idea.

Meeep. No tensing! Personal space issues should just not exist for this class period.

BRILLIANT IDEA! Saves all the weight and everything. CHARMS! MORE OF THEM!

"AHHH! IDEA!" Kylie couldn't help but screaming. It was such an amazing idea. "EVIE! Do you remember when I held your cat in with that thing? I can do that again. But with PEOPLE! It won't weigh ANYTHING! And you'll stay in! And so will everyone else! And we won't need more logs OR rope!!!!"

Kylie was a little excited at this point. Just a tad.

MORE IDEAS!!! "AND we could get it moving by doing that charm that I used back in our first year! Remember? It blew me into the air and you guys thought I was flying? That's how far it pushed ME... so imagine how much it could do if a couple of us did it?!?!"


Kylie was on a roll...

A tiny grin had crept onto Grayson's face as Brinkley had fired Legend from ark design, just because she thought he deserved it. Not just because the drawings had been even worse than anything she could do, since that was just something that made her happy. Just, he deserved to be shot down. Didn't matter why. But she'd managed to make her expression innocent again by the time the attention went back to her, even though an amused sparkle stayed in her eyes at how possessive Brinkley was still being of Sho. Interesting, and made her wonder if that was still conected to his expression way back after Sho had said hi to her.

But he'd mentioned her, so he was still on her good side. Not that it was hard to stay on her good side, since only Legend had gone to the other side as of yet. But attention on her was good, since she didn't like being ignored. Being ignored led to her doing things to not be ignored, and even though those things were fun, she wanted to try and avoid them right now. She looked back at Sho with a smile, as the idea of asking her what she wanted to do came up. Yay Sho. And then Raiden spoke up, and her eyes went to the prefect. "Yeah, I can do sticking charms. Um, if someone reminds me what they are." Stupid not having been at Hogwarts the last couple terms. But at least she was good with charms. She sighed, though, as the attention switched again. No need to pay attention to the bicker brothers, especially since she figured Legend would argue with anyone.

But Raiden was asking Sho and Brinkley about sails, and Jack was off getting more supplies. "Shouldn't a sail be somewhere sort of in the middle of the boat? Ark. Whatever," she said, trying to help. "And we'd need a big pole to attach the sail to." The mast she'd mentioned earlier when she'd been teasing Brinkley about tying him to it. She couldn't do sticking charms without anything to stick, so she needed to help where she could. And she wasn't unfamiliar with boats, not really. She'd never made one, but she knew what they looked like.

"Jack don't go!" called out Brinkley, reaching out for her with his free hand dramatically. He chuckled before continuing: "Come back, Jack! Jack! Jack!" Brink gave Sho's shoulder a good squeeze before finally letting her go. This whole ark project was far too amusing and it reminded him of that muggle movie Tamara liked to watch about the sinking cruise and the old lady flinging a very expensive necklace to the depth of the ocean.

"Alright, I'll stop monkeying around, you can stop giving me the eye now," he murmured, glancing at the prefect out of the corner of his eyes. "Sail....hmm, we should probably consider the current wind's direction for that...maybe. I hate open bodies of water," he confessed freely, his olive eyes on the lake now. "I've never sailed in my life. There you have it. A bit of biography. As long as it isn't right in the middle or at the extremities of the ark I think we're safe."

He was still hot. Grimacing, Brinkley took off his robes, exposing the class to his almost radioactive pastiness. He would apologize but that would mean admitting his insecurities openly. Brink just wasn't calm enough for that yet.

The group was now swelling to a great number, but Patroclus liked it that way! They were like a group of sailors from Ancient times, off to search for Buried Treasure! Argh!

Patroclus listened wide-eyed as Kylie went crazy and screamed ideas at them all. A moment of silence followed, Patroclus not at all sure how to reply! However finding his tongue Patroclus ventured some of his own ideas!
"An easy way to solve our size problem could be if we all use Engorgio, on the raft once complete, that way it would be large enough for all of us," However the down side which he kept to himself, would also be the fact that the spell would eventually wear off......moving on!
"The way we will move Capt'n, " Patroclus added in just for fun, "Is by the large sheets Evelyn mentioned also known as Sails! However we may also need to use some muscle power and row if their is no wind, or Kylie's air spell fails us!" The image of them trapped in the center of the Lake had Patroclus smiling....on the inside!

"I say we start building," Patroclus mentioned as he drew his wand from his ankle holster and flicked it length ways at the center of a log, "Deffindo!"and the log split straight down the center

Wowza!

Jack, though sometimes too busy wondering things that did not matter in this precise moment, was not at all oblivious. Not missing the glare Chez shot at Raiden, she snickered under her breath and then shot him a bright smile before skipping off to do as told.

Heh. HEH. Boys. They were all the same.

Hearing Brink's voice calling for her, Jack shot him a look. Not because he was calling her and laughing and acting as though he'd had firewhiskey, but because he was making a reference to the corniest of all the muggle movies.

She giggled, and levitated what the Slytherin Prefect had told her to, sending it straight to his feet.

"Anything else?" She was good at this, levitating stuff and following orders. A Follower, she definitely was. "I think you need a tan, Brinkley. We both do." Actually... it would seem that seventy percent of the class did. "We should all go to the beach in summer break!" Never mind that sharks scared her to death! Were there even SHARKS in Britain? "Christian wouldn't say NO." Except he probably would. Her dad would not approve of that trip.

Since Kylie was creeping her out slightly, Evelyn may have taken a step behind Destiny just in case the Hufflepuff decided to try anything while in this crazy state. You know, because...well Destiny was standing right there, and she needed a shield.

"I'm pretty sure that that spell thing you did around Poof, I could walk through it." How in the world was THAT going to help hmm? Oh wait, she could do it with people instead of animals. "Oh." Well, pfft. Wasn't that just brilliant? Well, it was, it was amazing for a third year in fact, but not in the way Evelyn was thinking.

Aw right, how could she forget that air spell or whatever Kylie used back in first year. Again, amazing for a first year. "Uh huh..." she grumbled, not realizing that there was a scowl on her face until she spoke. Shaking it off and putting on a neutral expression, Evelyn cleared her throat and crossed her arms before taking a step out from behind Destiny. "Okay then. Problem solved. Yaaayyy."

Mmhmm. Real emotions right there! Definitely.

But Patroclus had some pretty good ideas as well. Why didn't she think of engorging the raft!? She did it to those pillows the day they went hall sliding, she should've thought of it now. But then again, that was with pillows, and this was a raft that had to hold seven people. Eight if Josh showed up. Hmm, where WAS that Gryffindor?

Seeing Patroclus cut one of the logs that she hadn't even noticed until now, Evelyn took a step closer to him and peered down at the now two logs. "How do we build a raft?" They said to tie together logs right? Was that all they were doing? Why did they need to cut them then?

Dealing with a loosey goosey Brink was a bit fun for Sho but it was mostly just weird. Especially when he begged Jack to stay. It also seemed he was quoting something familiar line, but Sho couldn't be bothered to remember what it was right now.

" I like the beach," Sho said conversationally to Jack, trying to look normal even though Brink was still hanging all over her. Which, honestly, was kind of nice. Sho liked to hug, but she was so used to Brinkley being so anti-hugs that this weirded her out.

Well, with a squeeze of her shoulder the embrace ended but Brink was still acting loony. " That draught...was it ...strong?" She asked Raiden, sort of in a whisper. It seemed to be pretty strong, honestly. Brink was...being really open and honest but not in his usual manner. It was kind of amusing, she thought with a chuckle. As Brink went on about the mast of the ship, Sho turned to Raiden. " Yeah, I've never sailed either but all the boats I've ever seen with with sails have masts. So we need one big board, and a sheet or something." She said. Then she tilted her head a bit. " I still think we should have oars just in case though." Better safe than sorry, right?

Kylie thought about it for a second. How DO you build a raft. "Well, I mean, there are lots of ways... just one idea. Cut the logs so they're all the same size, and bind them together? If we did use multiple binds, like, a few people casting at the same time... I think they'd stick together really well. Of course, there are other ways to do things."

Engorging it! That was a fantastic idea! Well done, Patty! She was starting to calm down, but was still really excited with this whole 'building things with magic' idea. "That's a fabulous idea, Patty! Really! Nice thinking!"

She was a little offended that he thought her spell might not work. Her spells ALWAYS worked. If she was going to use one for a grade especially... But she didn't take it too harshly. He didn't really know her, how she did things, how she didn't do things. It wasn't a big deal really. He hadn't meant it with any personal intent.

She noticed Evelyn looked like she was hiding behind Destiny.. "Evie? Is something wrong? You look like you're using our captain as a shield!" Kylie laughed. She was obviously making an exaggeration. Evie was probably just looking for something. No big deal.

Kylie felt her wand on her new holster she'd gotten. No way anyone was taking it from her now! She wondered if that was why she was so excited. She'd finally gotten her wand back. She knew that was why she wanted to do as many charms as she could get out of her little self!

Looking up from cutting the logs, Patroclus turned to see Evelyn, starring befuddled looking at him. "Well with all rafts, you need to ensure there is structure, and rigidty, the sea tosses, to and fro, side to side, so you have to make sure that your raft will be able to sustain those forces. Here let me show you, I am going to tak your hand, so dont freak out," He added the last part, with a warm smile that reached into his eyes. Patroclus took her hand and held it out between them. Grabbing her finger tips he begun his explanation. "Your hand is the raft, if we make it but just sticking one row of logs together," and he gave her hand a light shake, and waited as he knuckles moved with in reaction. "The waves with break the rafts, but,"he placed his hand on top of hers so his pinkie fingers touched her knuckles, "if we had another layer of half logs, this way, then the waves come," pushed on downwards slightly, "we will remain strong! Thank you Miss Flores for your assistance," Patroclus finished in a presenter style voice!

Patroclus levitated more logs down and began to severe them as well! "Captain you should apoint someone to work on the Sail! We need it to look spectular!

...Poor Chez. Raiden had just stuck him with someone he didn't like very much, and asked Jack to do other things.

Oh well. He'd get over it. And if not, well then. He was just being stubborn. At least the pair seemed to be getting along okay. He turned his attention back to Sho and Brinkley, though always careful to pay the littlest bit of attention to the boys. You know, in case boards started flying.

"I think a little bit toward the front, probably," he said, pointing to a spot on the... rather terrible drawing. "That way... we don't really have to worry about the wind if it's blowing in the opposite direction. As long as it's not blowing very hard... we can cast air charms at the sail and get our own wind going so it'll go faster."

Ahh, Jack was back with stuff. Raiden grinned at her and nodded.

"Thanks... uhm... hmm. That's pretty much everything we need, right? Like Sho says, we can just use a plain board for the mast part." Maybe Jack could rig that up while the rest of them worked on the actual boat/ark part? "Jack, do you think you could do something with the canvas, for the sail?"

Errr. Raiden looked a bit worriedly at Brinkley. He was reacting kinda strangely to his calming draught. Which was weird, because whenever Raiden had had them, he'd been perfectly fine. But...

"It might have been. I don't react to them as easily as most people do." His voice had dropped slightly, but it went back up to normal speaking volume at her next suggestion. "Yeah, we should. Definitely."

It would give Chez and Legend something to do while they were on the water, at least.

Darn tininess. Maybe she needed to speak louder. Grayson was just not going to think of it as being ignored. Nope. She just needed to speak louder. "Titanic? I'd think you wouldn't want to be thinking about boats sinking, Brinkley," she pointed out, idly, before glancing at Jack as she returned. Nobody had given her anything concrete to do, anyway. "The beach is fun," she said in response to the girl's comment. She'd ignored the pastiness, though. It was March, none of them had gotten a lot of sun lately. And they were back to discussing sails, and she shrugged. "North of center. Or whatever direction we want to call it. Makes sense," she said, ignoring the evil Legend drawing. They could make a much nicer boat than that picture made it look like. Well, if Chez and Legend could get along long enough to make it.

At least Brinkley had taken that calming draught thingy of Raiden's. Not that it seemed to have calmed him. But at least there weren't any more dry heaves, or massive sweating. She understood Sho's concern, sorta, though. She thought. No real way to tell. Flicking her wand idly out of the holster, she sort of looked at it for a second as things were discussed. "So boat making. And oars. Okay." She just wanted someone to put her to work

Suddenly he was vaguely aware that this Chrysanthemum girl was waving and shouting. Oh, now she's hailing the water gods, hoping to placate them for a safe journey! He gave the girl an approving nod, then sank back into his reverie, considering the fantastic possibility that the giant squid was, in fact, the water god and guardian of the Lake.
