Default HoM Lesson 1: Giants

Before entering the classroom you'll see a big parchment sign next to the door in curvy noticeable letters that reads:

Task before entering the History of Magic Classroom:
Located next to the door is large rack of costumes, a variety of hats and masks as well as dress up make up and accessories like glasses and bags. Your task is to choose a costume and/or a mask from the rack and dress up as your favourite witch or wizard from magical history. (no creatures please, otherwise no limits.)


After you put on that costume, fixed that mask, adjusted your hat askew or added that last bit of eye-shadow so you look like the author Bathilda Bagshot or someone else famous from magical history then head into the classroom. Once fully inside you'll see rows up on rows of desks in pairs of three in a slightly misaligned order that leads up to the professor desk as well as the black board and on the wall to the left of the blackboard a large floor to ceiling book case. The air you feel is slightly on the crisp and icey side in the classroom even though warming spells are in place. A consequence of the winter weather and the fact that you are taught by a ghost.

Professor Helena is sitting on the edge of her desk, waiting for her students to arrive.

Class Progression:
Class has started + Questions
Responses + Give one giant fact each
Why did Dumbledore want the giants as allies for the second wizarding war?
Summing it up + Find a partner for practial activity

So they had answer Truebridge, Dumbledore, Rae-Branxton, McGonagall, Tate, Bontecou, Branxton, Leiden, Draconia, Loryen and Kobus Hendrik. The young lioness counted it with her fingers that those were... eleven. "Yes, those are enough." And one bag of candies goes to their team! She clutched the candies on her hand CAREFULLY because she accidentally dropped it, maybe the snatchers would take them and that means.... no candies for them. Boo... "Time to walk again now! Go, Sophie! You can do it, Sophie!" Ava cheered her up. Maybe after this activity she had to give her a good massage on her shoulder.

The History of Magic professors? Well, this was hard.

"Well uh... I know Professor Glendower... She was here before the Grey Lady..." And Zhenny said that she's very nice. Too bad that she didn't teach her now. "And uh... the other ghost Professor... Binns?" And... "I don't know any other than the other two..." She said in sad tone.

Oh GOOOOD, that WAS enough! "Yaaay," Sophie cheered, a little less enthusiastically than she NORMALLY would have, but they were trying to concentrate and focus and NOT mess anything up here because they were STRONG VICTORIOUS WOMEN WHO WERE GONNA DO THIS THING.

Shuffling them along and trying to keep her shoulders steady, Soph kept them going along in the race, and even though the Head Girl's face fell when Ava only knew two, her pace didn't slow down any.

So... that meant... Soph needed to come up with EIGHT.

Sweet Merlin.

"That's okay," Soph tried to reassure as brightly as she could, not wanting Ava to feel BAD about it or anything. She was just a first year who shouldn't have been expected to know these things, so really it was the Grey Lady who was dooming Soph here for not thinking this through. But... maybe she knew more than she thought she did? Taking a deeep, cleansing breath, Soph started, "Well... okay, yes... there was Glendower before the Grey Lady, and I had Professor McCormack and Professor Dursley before her..." so that was four including Binns... "oh and before I got here, I remember the... Vint...eren guy? Vinteren? And then..." Hmm. "OH, duh, Anjelica Lainey! She was Deputy Headmistress and a GHOST and she was History of Magic professor for, like, EVER. And then there was the stint of Berty Borr during her reign, too." Soph didn't know how many that was, but she was just gonna keep letting the gears turn. "And... hmm. There were a bunch... from then... till... no-- OH! Duh, Sophie - ETHAN Truebridge, the Headmistress' husband! And... and... Kyroh's dad! Scabior! He was a History of Magic professor, too!!"

That HAD TO BE CLOSE. HOW MANY WAS THAT? "Is that... is that all ten? Eight? Nine?" She hadn't been counting, she was just throwing them out there. AHHHH.

She waited as Henric listed the other five Professors and they were done! "Awesome job, partner." Of course they weren't done yet, but that had been the more tricky part. Now they just needed to get the candy down... "I think I can do this." It was a bit of a struggle but since she was taller now - like a giant - she managed in the end. "Awesome, I got the bags!"

Now to make it back the other way. "I take it you don't want to switch?" Apparently she was very light and she wasn't sure she could carry him. Just asking to be polite.
"Great job too, Paulina!" They got the candies! Now they just need to go back to the finish line.Paulina had offered to come down so they could switch positions but Henric wouldn't let that happened. He was much to gentlemanly,he didn't want her to struggle carrying his weight on her shoulders. Although,he had to admit his shoulder muscles were starting to get sore from the constant pressure on it.He didn't show his slightly pained expression of course. Henric shook his head and smiled up at her,"Nope,I'm good...let's go!" He didn't give her time to contemplate any further as he turned around slowly and paced his way back. "Hold on tight to those baskets,Paulina! I'm going to make a dash for the finish line!" He grinned and jog a little bit towards the end point. "Oh yeaah,we did it!!" Henric cheered as soon as they crossed the finish line! Time to bring Paulina down now...*pants*...fuuu...

Then he held onto the hand of the seventh year once more, making sure that he wouldn't drop their sweets. "Take us to the end so we can eat, Mrs. Zander Adair." Was he aware of Rooney's continuous use of Mrs in conversation with him?
Merlin this kid had a whole lot of requests. But of course he was trying to stay balanced. If he didn't, very bad things would happen. Both to the Ravenclaw and also to Zander... And maybe even to their sweets. Which was a no-no, because they had worked very hard to attain those, thank you very much.

So anyways, once Rooney grabbed onto the sweets, Zander slowly turned the opposite direction to begin walking again. And this time he went a lot slower because it wasn't a race anymore, was it? And now that Rooney was holding onto the candy bags, the grip was a little looser. Precautions. For the first time in his life, Zander Adair was trying to take the proper ones.

.... And did Rooney just call him Mrs again? The Gryffindor most definitely coughed. Uh. What. He momentarily stopped in his tracks. AHEM.

Er.

Before starting to take proper steps again.

Y'know, don't call him judgmental or anything, but Zander was starting to sense some horrible vibes from this kid.

Ava counted on her finger. Glendower, Binss, McCormack, Dursley, Vinteren, Lainey, Borr(?), Truebridge, Scabior... Wait, it's just eight, or nine if Berty Borr was included. "We need two more names!" And now she scratched her head, thinking who else had been the History of Magic Professors. Ugh! "Well... Cerulean? And... and..." The younger lioness couldn't mention any other else.

"I DON'T REMEMBER ANY OTHER ELSE! DOES THAT MEAN WE CANNOT GET ANOTHER BAG OF CANDIES? OR WE LOSE???" She suddenly screamed. Oops. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scream. But but... What are we gonna do?? I'm so sorry that I don't remember any other else!" Did she mention earlier that History stuffs wasn't her thing? Yup. And she's not gonna blame Sophie if she didn't remember either. Seriously, she was just an ordinary human like anybody else.

Thanks, Henric! I wouldn't have been able to do it without your help!" It was true; he had helped her with two names and caught the fact that she had only listed four Heads initially.

They would also be moving a lot slower if it wasn't for him.

Apparently she was lighter than she had thought, because he was zooming towards the finish line with as much speed as when they started off. Paulina had to make sure that she was holding on tight while making sure not to drop the candy - something easier said than done. Thank goodness it was over with now because she wasn't sure how long she could have done it for.

Awkwardly she made her way off of Henric's shoulders. "Go us!" They had fun and that was the most important thing.

TWO more names? Sophie couldn't go back and count all that she'd listed off because she was still focusing a lot of her brainpower on making sure Ava wasn't wobbly, but... Cerulean! That was one, yeah! "You're right! She was... History of Magic professor just for one term, I think, before she switched to Muggle Studies! Then Kyroh's dad took over!" She DEFINITELY remembered Cerulean then Scabior... but... who was before Cerulean, then?

Hmm. Hmm. Tricky, tricky--

Sweet MERLIN, Ava! Soph almost jolted and would have sent Ava flying, but composed herself enough to actually laugh a little bit at what was actually being shouted. "Ava, Ava! It's okay. We'll... hang on, though. Your Cerulean mention triggered something... lemme just... think." She took a long moment to think through names, through History of Magic professors of the past... wracking her brain for the one that came before Scabior and Cerulean on the list...

..."Walton? Welton? I think that's one more." COULD THEY GET THEIR LAST BIT NOW AND HEAD BACK TO THE FINISH LINE?

If Hugo dropped her now, she didn't even think she'd care.

"Let's do both at the same time. I mean... as well as we can. History of Magic professors are easy enough. Two ghosts: Professor Binns and Professor Ravenclaw. Can we count the current one? And our last professor was Nessarose Glendower. So that's already three. Do you know any more?" She waggled her fingers at the baskets. "And Heads... Headmaster Botros, and Anastasia Truebridge who just left last term. And the one before her was... Gaellen Tate. Who was before him?"
Ballet and gymnastics. "Well that explains everything" thanks Merlin they didn't any trouble to reach the other side of the room.

"I think Botros and her" as in the grey lady "doesn't count" Hugo commented " 'Cause she said she wanted former ones" so yeah. "But adding to the professor's names...there's Scabior, Gemma Cerulean, Truebridge...Ethan Truebridge" not the headmistress "That's five names" did they needed more? "And headmasters... there's Dumbledore, Snape. That's four..." he tried to think fast "Dippet too"

He just wanted to get those baskets down. "Umbridge counts, right?"

Okay now they already counted the 5 former HOM Professor and Headmaster/Headmistress. "Did you get the candy?" She looked up and saw Angel already grabbed the candy. "I think now we have to go to the finish line." And then they're done and they could enjoy the candy. Well, Angel could. She's not going to eat it. "Do you mind to switch? Because I think I can't walk anymore." She could feel her legs about to give up on her.
Angel could tell that Candice was in a bad way, and if her friend was like that what would she be like with her friend on her shoulder. "Okay, I'm getting down." Angel said as she careful got off her friends shoulder, she had thought about just jumping but if something went wrong she had a feeling the Professor might just have shouted at her.

Angel smiled as she stood next to a table so that Candice could get on her shoulder, it was only fair after all, working for the team, you both did halves right? "I'm ready when you are Candice." Angel couldn't wait to share the candy with her friend.

Even Sophie calmed her down, but still the young lioness felt like she's useless. "I'm sorry, I should've told you that I am no good in history or memorizing past event." Yeah... She was the one who didn't remember the all five Professors. She just knew two... and three including Cerulean that she had mentioned later.

Okay, but she really NEEDED to calm down or she's gonna fall down from the Head Girl's shoulder.

"Oops, I'm sorry again. You still okay down there?" If she could, she didn't mind switching places with Sophie but it's just... impossible. And once she mentioned the last one, Ava counted back again. Yep, it's ten now! "Yes, I think that's his name." or her? Dunno which one is right. But at least they had ALL ten former Professors! She grabbed a bag of candies and... TIME TO HEAD BACK TO FINISH LINE!!! "I'm gonna give you a shoulder massage after this class." Because Sophie had been doing a GREAT JOB supporting her (literally) and helped her answering those questions.

Regardless, all thoughts of history momentarily left his head as she let go of his hands and the prefect focused on staying very very still as she reached up for the candy bar. Grabbing onto one of her hands when she was done, he frowned when the other didn't come. "Stick the candy in your pocket and give me your other hand," he said, and wiggled that hand around as he very very very slowly started walking again.

Please don't fall please don't fall please don't fall. He was barely even listening to her rattle out the list of Professors but nodded when she'd apparently finished. "Great job," he said, and then realised it was his go. Reminding her about the hand she needed to give him with a little finger wiggle, Benzi thought back friday nights at the Rider household. And then tried to recall who Janelle had just said so that he wouldn't be repeating names.

"Right, History of Magic professors... There's Professor Helena obviously and Professor Dursley, who taught here when I was a first year..," he started, then went silent for a good thirty seconds as he focused on not running into another couple of students who were getting rather close to them. "Uh, I'm basically trying to remember who my mother talked about and go from there... So there was Professor Lainey? And Professor Truebridge who's Truebridge's husband, and there was a Professor Svensson. That's five right?" was that it? Could she grab the candy bar and get off now because his heart rate was up and he was nervous. If something startled him now Janelle would be toast.

He eyed the room carefully. No one better startle him now.


Janelle laughed when Benzi said that his family talked about history for fun. Then she tried to stop herself because laughing was not good for the balance. When her partner reached for her other hand, she followed his instructions. Putting the candy into her pocket, she grabbed his fingers and held on. They were moving again. "You're doing all the work. I'm just along for the ride." Thank goodness she had a big strong partner because otherwise, this could have been a really scary activity.

As before, Benzi named the professors like he practiced it at the dinner table........which he did. Now all they needed to do was get the last candy bag and they were almost home. Once they reached the second candy basket and Benzi had finished naming, Janelle let go of his hands again. Standing up straight, she reached for the bag. It was easier this time, thank Merlin. I've got the second one. You can go now." First, Janelle scrunched down and grabbed Benzi's hands again. Go go go! She thought in her head, but she didn't say it out loud. She didn't want to throw her partner off his game. Instead she settled for, "You've got this." "We're almost there."

Norah didn't mean to steal Tia's opportunity to list names, but there was no telling how much longer she'd last up there. She was proud of that last one, too, which she'd only looked up in Hogwarts a History because it was cool to know who was the professor when you were born. And everybody knew about Professor Binns. It had seemed like a big deal that a ghost had taught a class, y'know, before this happened.

She tried to turn her head towards Caleb but threatened to wobble again so she turned quickly back to the front. "Yeah! You can definitely join." Prefects uniting 'n all that. Another awesome idea from Tia. Man, she was on a ROLL.

No offense to Tia and all maybe a little, but he was thinking that only because she had annoyed him so much recently...
Well they had a group of three now, so rotation would totally work. Though she wasn't too sure about either of them lifting Caleb on their own , unless they did it together. Actually that could work if he wanted to see what it was like to be even taller. She beamed when she heard Norah call out one more history professor and then another two, well all one word that time. Maybe she should have a rest and let Norah have a rest from being in the air. It must be nerve-wrecking being in the air. "Erik Vinteren" Tia said as the fifth history professor, before she looked at Caleb.

"Yes, but not because I want to tag out. But because I did offer to let you join us." Because she CAN be nice and surely he should appreciate that. Pausing, she bent her knees as much she could while keeping balance and moved her hands up to reach for Norah's hands to help the fifth year climb off. "We're missing the candy bags, aren't we? Do you need a break from being high up, Norah? And we need to name some headmasters."

He knew he had picked the right person. Well of course he did, who didn't want to work with her?! She was awesome. "Glad you feel that way. So you mind being known as 'Little Dude' or shall I use your name?" Cause you know she was nice like that. Giving the kid choices and all. "I'm Hady by the way." In case he didn't remember that or even know. Most knew her as Zeke's friend or the girl with green streaks in her hair. Whatever really worked for them.

Kneeling down on one knee she rested a hand hand on her own knee and the other on the wall to keep herself steady. It took the boy awhile to get up onto his shoulders and she was about to ask if he was alright when she finally felt a hand resting on her head. Way to steady yourself kid! There was some wobbling going on but Hady kept a firm hand pressed to the wall. "Up we go!", she answered slowly rising to her feet doing her best not to wobble as she did. Rising up she slid her hand up the wall and her hand that had been on her knee moved upwards to grab the back on one of her partners ankles lightly to help support him. "You okay up there?"

And she was fully standing and she hadn't dropped him yet! Yes! "Here we go!," Hady warned Phillip moving her hand from the wall to hold his other ankle. Whoa!!!!!

This was a little awkward alright. Taking a small step forward then another testing her balance and his. When she was sure she could hold him up and he wasn't going to hit the floor the brunette continued forward with sure steps. "So can you name any former Professors or Headmasters?" See what this kid knew first before she added more to the list.


Did he mind being known as Little Dude? Interesting. Why? Because truth be told, he didn't really know. But his own name tended to sound boring after a while and there was NO WAY he was going to let her call him PHILLY. He just about managed to handle his own SISTER calling him that. "My name's Phillip but no one calls me Little Dude so you can call me THAT." It made him feel COOL, after all. As if he was a teenager already. "Nice to meet you, Hady with the green streaks in her hair." What? It was better than 'giant buddy'.

WHOAAAAAAH!

Okay, they were up. They were going UP!

Despite the fact that the girl with the green in her hair had been holding onto a wall, the minute she started to get up was the minute that Phillip was finding it hard not to struggle to stay up on her shoulders. His confidence was starting to wobble as much as he was but he TRIED not to let it show. Was he okay? AHAHAHAHA! "Yeah, this is BRILLIANT!"

What a big, fat lie.

And then she was walking.

Merlin. MER-LIN.

Anyone looking up at Phillip's face could probably see him furrowing his eyebrows in concentration as he stared ahead of him. Looking down at the floor was only going to make him nervous.

And what made him even MORE nervous was that they had to recite the former Headmasters. UH. The first year knew NOTHING. "Well, there was Dumbledore with the loooooooooong beard." That counted, right? Right. "And oh! Hey! The lady before Botros with the flaming red hair! What was her........ her na-- TRUEBRIDGE!"

Apparently she was lighter than she had thought, because he was zooming towards the finish line with as much speed as when they started off. Paulina had to make sure that she was holding on tight while making sure not to drop the candy - something easier said than done. Thank goodness it was over with now because she wasn't sure how long she could have done it for.

Awkwardly she made her way off of Henric's shoulders. "Go us!" They had fun and that was the most important thing.
As soon as she stepped off from his shoulders, Henric stretched his shoulder muscles from knotting up. Once done, he grinned and put up a high-five for her."Brilliant work, partner! Pfft. Naarh... we did it together! Most importantly, we managed to get those candy baskets from on top of that ceiling,"he beamed, proud that they finished the activity with no major mishaps.

"So can I have a bag? Do they have chocolates in them? I love chocolates...any sort really..."he asked as he made his way closer to her to see what was in the candy basket. Henric needed a sugar booster to regain back his energy and perhaps, a water bottle too. He felt like he ran a 100m heat race or something. Merlin...he was perspiring quite a bit.

Little Dude it was! If that's what he wanted to be called then she'd comply. It was better then just calling him kid or 'Hey you!' Or something. There was always Little Snake but she called Lucas that so it wouldn't do. Therefore she'd sticky with what she already called him. "Sounds good to me then," She laughed quietly.

There was a lot of wobbling going on from not only herself. Holding someone on your shoulders that was roughly your own height while they were standing was no easy task! However she kept a straight face and her focus on the task at hand. Neither had fallen so plus there. Brilliant? It probably was. "Good job. We can do this." She was sure of it.

Hady focused on what Little Dude was saying. "Yup both count. There was also Severus Snape, Dolores Umbridge and Minerva McGonagall," Hady added to his list as she continued walking stopping beneath the first basket. "As for form Professors there was uh..." She stopped for a moment as she gripped his ankle better while trying not to fall over still. "Binns, Glendower, Lainy, No ire and er..." Ah geez that was four. They needed another. Little Dude?

The students partnered up and Helena watched as all the pairs approached the task she had set them with different attitudes towards it. If only she could have known what thoughts circled in their minds. She heard experts of words that floated to her from the pairs as they chose who did what and got into action. It was interesting to observe from the sidelines how they all fared. When the first pairs crossed the finish line with their candy safely in two Helena beamed at them. Looking over at the antique clock she had placed in the bookcase by her blackboard Helena cleared her throat to get attention. "Great work everyone! You've all impressed me with your skills in working closely together with a partner(s) and your knowledge of past school faculty, giants and that you can think and discuss not just recite what is written in your textbooks. We are out of time class time sadly. Feel free to enjoy your candy in your common rooms. Homework will be posted later this afternoon. Class is dismissed!"

Ooc: Thank you all for playing with me and making this lesson memorable. I will leave the class thread open until around 7 am GMT Monday October 12th. Please finish your activity posting until then.

Angel smiled as she stood next to a table so that Candice could get on her shoulder, it was only fair after all, working for the team, you both did halves right? "I'm ready when you are Candice." Angel couldn't wait to share the candy with her friend.
As soon as Angel got down from her shoulder, she could breath again. Its like a weight has been lifted from her shoulder. Well, it just did. "I think we did a great job." Halfway without any accident. Now they just have to walk to the finish line and then Angel could enjoy her candies.

Candice climbed to the table and then slowly she climbed to Angel's shoulder. Wow! Okay. She thought standing in her friend shoulder was much easier than doing the walking while carrying her friend in her shoulder. Apparently this was HARD too. She tried to maintained her balance. She didn't want to fall. "Let's go, Angel!"

How did Angel do this again? This was HARD! But at least her shoulder was not hurting. She saw some of her classmate already crossed that finish line. "You can do it, Angel!" She hoped her friend was okay down there.

Angel looked up at her friend as she slowly started to move towards the finish line, her friend seemed to be a bit worried and Angel decided to lighten the mood. "Hey Candice, What's it like feeling like an Angel?" Angel was sure her shoulders and hands were shaking a bit. "We look like that scene from the Titanic film, obviously if I was the titanic." Angel continued to slowly walk to the finish line.

Angel was doing anything to get to the finish line without falling or making her friend fall. "So Candice, what you been up to?" Angel then added. "And if you say just hanging I might have to scream." Angel suddenly realised that they were getting closer to where they were going.

"This is the captain of AngelForce One." Angel pretended to speak to her passage. "We would like to tell everyone that has been on this flight tonight, that we are coming towards our final destination, we would like to thank you for choosing us and we hope that you have a pleasant day." Angel crossed the line as she was saying it.

Finally. The slow-poke was making a move. Rooney held on tightly as his partner carried him towards the finish line, jumping off his shoulders as soon as they passed it. Actually, he probably should have waited until Zander had stopped moving to jump from up in the air, but he was trained in jumping from heights and landing efficiently onto his feet. Which was, exactly what the second year did and succeeded at doing. One of his arms extended in the direction of the Head Boy and Rooney handed him his basket of sweets.

"Pleasure doing business with you, Head Boy."

Not.

BUT IT WAS TIME TO LEAVE. YES!

"Thank you, Professor! Great class!" And definitely as great chance to dress up, because that was also one of Rooney's favourite things to do. History of Magic was going to be good this year, Rooney could already tell. He de-Spencer-Moon'd himself until he was finally Rooney Bronwyn with just a little bit of drawn on stubble and ran from the classroom to go read some more about ex-Professors of the school.

Okay, but she really NEEDED to calm down or she's gonna fall down from the Head Girl's shoulder.

"Oops, I'm sorry again. You still okay down there?" If she could, she didn't mind switching places with Sophie but it's just... impossible. And once she mentioned the last one, Ava counted back again. Yep, it's ten now! "Yes, I think that's his name." or her? Dunno which one is right. But at least they had ALL ten former Professors! She grabbed a bag of candies and... TIME TO HEAD BACK TO FINISH LINE!!! "I'm gonna give you a shoulder massage after this class." Because Sophie had been doing a GREAT JOB supporting her (literally) and helped her answering those questions.

Was Ava really apologizing? That was... very cute and very sad at the same time. "Nooo, Ava, it's all right. You're only a first year, y'couldn't possibly be expected to know this stuff. I dunno why we're expected to know it, actually, 'cause... I mean, professors are important and all, but what good is it knowing ten past History of Magic professors? Headmasters 'n stuff I get, but..." Soph would've shrugged, but Ava was on her shoulders, so instead she just made a soft noise of displeasure.

"You did more than we could've expected you to." Truly. The kid had listed off a few names AND she was doing a dynamite job up there not falling and gathering the candy bags, so really, it worked out just fine. "Uh huh, m'fine. Ready to finish this thing?" Soph turned them around carefully and headed for the finish line, keeping her body level and well-balanced so Ava wouldn't topple off, and she smiled at the Gryffindor's words. "Y'don't have to. I mean, y'can if y'really want to... but it's okay." She was already planning on giving Zander's shoulders a massage after this and figured he'd return the favor, too.

Also, had Soph mentioned that she was very grateful that Ava didn't have stinky feet? That would've made this whole thing a million times worse. Probably would've been weird to express her gratitude for it, though, but she was sure Ava was glad to not be stinking her out of here, too.

When they crossed the finish line, Soph let out some cheers of elation, then slooowly crouched downward, her hands up in the air to help Ava get down, if she needed the help. Or maybe the girl would just jump? Who knows. At any rate, they were dismissed, and Ava had their CANDY. Best day ever, right?

And would the Grey Lady notice if she kept the tiara?

Phillip was going to take that laugh to mean that she LIKED the nickname, which only made the first year puff out his chest slightly. Yes, he was PROUD, okay? Okay. "You're really motivational, Hady with the green in her hair." He would have reached down and patted the top of her head but that would require bending down and risking them falling and he wasn't about to do that. Nope.

As Hady mentioned the names of the previous Headmasters and Headmistresses and the Professors, it seemed as though an 'oh yeah!' moment was going through the boy's mind. Why didn't HE think of any of those? And who in the name of Merlin was No ire? Weird name. Had they REALLY been a professor? Phillip didn't know but he was going to trust Hady on that one.

ANYWAYS.

Another one? UH. Merlin, this was hard. He rubbed his chin as he tried to think back to any Professor names his mum or Uncle Asher had mentioned in the past. Or any stories he'd overheard been told before. There was a name that sounded like Winter but...... different. More German? More like...... "VINTEREN!" YES THAT ONE! "He made the school go ice cream loco!" See? Phillip knew things!

And this meant one thing and one thing only: THEY COULD GET THE SWEETS!

Uh, but, there was a problem. While the pair made a giant in this case, they weren't the tallest of giants so, even with their combined heights, Phillip was struggling to reach for the sweets all the way up there. "Could you tiptoe or something? They're too far awaaaaay!" And he was going to help out by tiptoeing on her shoulders as well.

Wobble!

Was Phillip noticing the wobbling? Not THAT much. He had some sweets to grab, after all. And he was GOING to grab them, okay? Even if it meant taking out his wand and, uh, summoning them? Yeah, that. But not even tiptoeing was helping THAT much. It was JUST out of his reach. He could touch the bottom of it with the tips of his fingers. Merlin, why couldn't he have grown just that one inch taller?

Just when he was starting to think about standing on Hady's head -- what? He had sweets to get, HELLO?! -- his fingers curled around the bottom of the packet and he TUGGED it down.

"YEEEEESSSS!"

"YEEEEESSSS!"

Motivational? Her, really? Nah.

Hady wasn't motivational at all. She said what she believed. And right now she believed in their team work. "Nah I'm just stating a fact," She laughed. Thanks though Little Dude.

Even though she had stopped talking she ran over the names she gave in her head. Why couldn't she think of a fifth?! Think Hady!

Only she didn't have to come up with another one. The small boy on her shoulders causing them both to wobble a bit called one out.Vinteren. Yes! "Nice! That's five!" Five. That meant they could get a bag of candy!

Hady could feel Phillip reaching upwards trying his hardest to get the sweets they had earned. It wasn't working though. If she was just an inch or two taller then it would've been easier. "Uh- yeah. Yeah I can try," She agreed nodding her head slightly at his questions Slowly she rose up onto her tip-toes wobbling forwards a little and the back nearly toppling over as she held onto his legs. "Is that better?"

Sometimes being short really was a disadvantage and this might be that time. She was trying not to fall over even while trying to keep on her toes. Just that little bit higher, a little longer. Reach Little Dude! "Yes?" She heard him call out the word just as they wobbled more and she could feel herself almost fall. Not yet. Can't fall yet.

"Can we head back?"

Ooooh good! Tia got the last professor and everything. Norah tried to smile down at the Ravenclaw before realizing she wouldn't see anyways, and the entire process wouldn't be too helpful in keeping balanced. She took her partner's hand and climbed down from her shoulders. "I'm okay!" Tia must've been tired from all that holding, anyways. "I hope you're okay, though. If you need a massage after class I pinky swear I can give you one." Whether or not it'd be enjoyable was a whole other story, but she could try.

She climbed onto Caleb this time, standing up a little quicker than she had before. Man. It was a lot higher up here. Sticking her arms out for balance, she began, "Anastasia Truebridge, Albus Dumbledore, Armando Dippet," Um. UUUUUUM. What was that guy's name again? From ages and ages and ages ago? "Phineas Nigellus Black" Oh yeah. She'd pump her fist in the air for that one, but it'd probably comprimise her balance some more and falling right on top of Caleb's head probably wasn't the best idea. Who else? "Severus Snape!" Did he count?

She could just pretend he did. Now that they were all finished, Norah looked toward the bag of candy. SO CLOSE. She reached her hands out to grab the bag, but swiped at midair and caught nothing but a big wobble. With a determined stare, she straightened her knees all the way and grabbed for it again, closing her fingers around the bag before it slipped right out of them and landed on the floor. Uh. Oops?

"I think Botros and her" as in the grey lady "doesn't count" Hugo commented " 'Cause she said she wanted former ones" so yeah. "But adding to the professor's names...there's Scabior, Gemma Cerulean, Truebridge...Ethan Truebridge" not the headmistress "That's five names" did they needed more? "And headmasters... there's Dumbledore, Snape. That's four..." he tried to think fast "Dippet too"

He just wanted to get those baskets down. "Umbridge counts, right?"
"You're clever," Dot gave him a grin, although she wasn't sure if he could see her from all the way down there. There was no reason that Umbridge wouldn't count, which meant they'd definitely earned the right to claim their candy. It took a little maneuvering and leaning and fishing (and wobbling), but Dot was able to extract first one and then the second bag of candy from the basket.

And there was no way to hold onto the bags AND hold on to Hugo, so Dot was forced to tug the bags inside her robes. Being alive at the finish line was sort of her main goal at this point. Candy was a very close second.

"We should head back. Go fast and I'll hold on tight."

Hady wasn't motivational at all. She said what she believed. And right now she believed in their team work. "Nah I'm just stating a fact," She laughed. Thanks though Little Dude.

Even though she had stopped talking she ran over the names she gave in her head. Why couldn't she think of a fifth?! Think Hady!

Only she didn't have to come up with another one. The small boy on her shoulders causing them both to wobble a bit called one out.Vinteren. Yes! "Nice! That's five!" Five. That meant they could get a bag of candy!

Hady could feel Phillip reaching upwards trying his hardest to get the sweets they had earned. It wasn't working though. If she was just an inch or two taller then it would've been easier. "Uh- yeah. Yeah I can try," She agreed nodding her head slightly at his questions Slowly she rose up onto her tip-toes wobbling forwards a little and the back nearly toppling over as she held onto his legs. "Is that better?"

Sometimes being short really was a disadvantage and this might be that time. She was trying not to fall over even while trying to keep on her toes. Just that little bit higher, a little longer. Reach Little Dude! "Yes?" She heard him call out the word just as they wobbled more and she could feel herself almost fall. Not yet. Can't fall yet.

"Can we head back?"


Yes, Hady, you are motivational. And Phillip, being Phillip, simply shook his head at her answer. "Well, I think you are." And he wasn't going to accept anything else.

So Vinteren WAS a name. Thank Merlin because otherwise, he wouldn't be able to think of another name and they wouldn't be able to get the candy waaaaaay up there, which would be something close to a disaster.

Just saying.

It was hard, y'know. There was a LOT of wobbling going on, this time coming from Hady herself! Didn't she know that she was the rock? If SHE fell then so did HE and he didn't want that, okay? Spending time in the Hospital Wing did NOT sound like his idea of fun. No, thank you. So, to check up on her, the first year made the mistake of looking down.

GULP.

The tiniest of whimpers was let out before he looked right back up again. Was this better? Gulping, he nodded along before saying, "MUCH better." Don't look down, don't look down...........

And then there was more wobbling, which was starting to make the Hospital Wing nightmare dream seem more and more real. Nope, NOT going in there whatsoever! But...... if it meant getting free candy from people........

.......... No, FOCUS, Romalotti!

"Please do. RUN LIKE THE WIND, HADY!"

Aaawwww!

Well this kid was a cutie. Could she keep him too? Adopt him as her little brother like she 'had' with Lucas. Maybe the kid wouldn't mind. Hady grinned at what he said but then remembered he couldn't see it. "Thanks. You're motivational too." He was. Keeping her focused and himself as well. Kid was pretty dang strong for a firstie.

The fourth year was trying SO hard not to fall. The wobbling was bad and getting worse the longer she was up on her toes. Dancing was good for balance but your balance only lasted so long when you had someone standing on your shoulders. "Okay good, good", she muttered quietly upon hearing him.

A whimper? She had barely heard it, her head lifting upwards as she lowered back down onto her feet. Was he alright? Was he falling? Had he gotten hurt? Hady didn't know what happened but he wasn't yelling or crying so it couldn't be to bad, right?

She couldn't worry about it at that second. She was being told to run! And run she would or well maybe not but a quick walk would do. "Off we go!" She turned around carefully heading back across the room as quickly as she dared keeping her steps light and even her pace quickening as they got closer. Her shoulders and arms ached from holding her partner up but she wouldn't complain about it. Not now.

Finally reaching the other side of the room Hady stopped. "Ready to get down?" She warned him before slowly lowering down to a kneeling position. Hop down now Little Dude.
