Zeke & others heheh Jaemin could cling like the best of 'em. He was the Devil's Snare of small children, a champion of holding onto things and people that didn't want to be held onto. It probably came with being very small and having to keep a grip on his mom and dad in crowds. He couldn't intercept the ball if it were thrown, as he was far too close, but he could try to keep it from being thrown! Even if the guy got all hissy at him. He shook his head and wrinkled his nose at him. Nu'uh dude. He'd have to throw the small boy as well if he wanted to throw the ball. ...why was this girl getting mad at him?! Who was attacking anyone??? Not Jaemin! "I'm allowed to try and stop him," the little boy said petulantly, squeezing a bit tighter. "I'm not hitting him or anything!" Just squeezing his arm and hand and hoping he would let go of the ball! Deeeeefense! |
4: Steal attempt from Hufflepuff again Quote:
What!? Katherine was too ANGRY to even react. "You're not even a Hufflepuff!" she exclaimed as she GLARED. This was stealing! UGH. But - of course. It was her fault. She should have been more cautious. This was a competition - an ugly one. She looked over at the Slytherin side and ALMOST went over to steal HER ball that belonged to RAVENCLAW, but they were currently ripping apart a boy, and she didn't want to deal with that at all. Therefore, she huffed at the stupid boy and turned to steal from the Hufflepuff once again. Bounce, bounce, bounce. She was too angry to enjoy jumping this time, and she quickly went over and juuuuuuuuuuuuumped to steal ONCE AGAIN. |
6 - Stealing from gryffindor Olly kept his eyes on the girl for a moment. She better not be thinking about coming over and trying to steal back that ball from the Slytherin platform. In the end, it looked as if she had decided against it. Which was the right decision, because Olly was definitely not going down without a fight. He cast another suspicious glance around the room, making sure nobody was getting any ideas about trying to steal from Slytherin. That firstie seemed to be doing a good job of defending the platform. So Olly jumped away. He simply jumped into the air, letting himself float whichever way nature chose. Of course he must have been leaning one way or another, but it was not on purpose. Either way, he ended up landing in the direction of the Gryffindor platform. Looks like that was settled then. Olly leaped again, this time closing the rest of the distance toward his competition. His hand closed around one of the red balls before he turning, silently searching for an open Slytherin. |
PASSING GREEN BALL! and mentions of that hullabaloo with all you snakes and Zeke XD SPOILER!!: Daxton Another small victory, although the man's face showed no indication of gloating. Even if he was terribly pleased with himself at the moment. "Very well then," he nodded, his wand out to summon some more parchment from his desk across the way. "In place of participation, you may sit and write out a chart comparing and contrasting Mars and Earth. Use of textbook permitted." Although Mr. Prince probably did not need to use such tools to accomplish the task. This plan was two fold, really. On the one had it would, hopefully, keep the Ravenclaw occupied for the remainder of things - which would not be too much longer now - while also creating something that the professor could utilize in the near future. So he could allocate his time to more pressing matters. Quote:
But as long as no one was crying, he wouldn't draw further attention to matters. Although Miss Lynch's words sounded like an invitation to him. Ahem. "WAND AWAY, MISS MOSS!" he shouted at the Ravenclaw. Which seemed to be a moot point considering that her spell hadn't worked in the long run. Oh well, word of caution to all then! Quote:
"Alright, it's yours," he mused, haphazardly tossing the ball towards the first year as though he were a rookie pitcher taking the mound in their first game of the season. OOC: approximately 10-12 hours before the activity closes ^_^ |
Post 9: Moving on from that mess and Open for catching! With a clear confirmation from Zeke that he was indeed fine..and even joking about the matter Hady dropped the situation. It seemed that Professor Airey didn't mind either as he clearly saw what was happening and said nothing. Well either she misunderstood the idea of this activity or nothing made sense anymore. Shaking her head and then running her hand through to hair to get it out of her face she moved her attention to everywhere else in the room. She'd help her house mates out if they were to steal a ball from another house but otherwise she would remain where she was. Speaking of house mates she was totally open, her eyes meeting Olly. He could toss the ball her way when he was ready. |
catching that ball for Slytherin so it doesn't fall into Gryffie hands again Quote:
|
6: From Gryffindor/Throwing Olly could see Hady near the Slytherin platform. At first he thought she was busy defending it, or heading to steal one for herself, but then he locked eyes with her. She knew that he needed help, and he knew it meant that she was open. He nodded and threw the ball as hard as possible. He hoped that it would reach her before someone from a different team was able to intercept it. |
Catching pass from Olly! When her eyes met with Olly's for that brief moment she knew that he understood. That's all that mattered. Hady watched as he threw the red lions ball her way. Sailing. Sailing through the air. Hady leaped off the snakes platform her arms up to catch the ball. Smooth pass this was! Catching it easily enough she jumped into the air the second her feet hit the floor and tossed it onto their platform watching it turn green. A quick thumbs up was sent to Olly on a nice pass! |
5: Pass attempt Katherine JUMPED when Professor Flamsteed warned her like that. She went as red as the Gryffindor's balls over there, and looked down in shame. She meant no harm! She failed the whole class now, didn't she? She didn't even get it. Was using wands not allowed altogether in this class? Eh, whatever. She just... jumped towards the Ravenclaw side to hand-deliver the ball this time. She WOULD make it up to the professor, she would! |
Post 2 - Steal Complete from Ravvie - Pass Attempt Scarlett was amazed. Apparently NO ONE HAD SEEN HER?! How perfect! With the Ravenclaw ball now safely in her hand, she crept away from the pile and with a big jump, she FLEW through the air with the help of the assisted gravity again and headed towards her home team. She HAD to be successful because she was NOT coming in last to Ravenclaw. No SIR. She wound out her arm and tossed it through the air, hoping that one of her badger classmates would be able to snag it and add it to their pile before anyone else did... |
Interception >:) Quote:
|
Stealing from Slytherin Kitty's fear of getting injured by someone blocking her too hard was gone. It vanished when she successfully stole that ball from Hufflepuff and passed it to Olivia. Now it was fun! Elated by the victory, Kitty set her sights on the Slytherin platform. She jumped on the platform and grabbed the closest ball, then turned to look for a fellow Ravenclaw to pass it to. |
6: not doing anything though XD Quote:
No, actually, Katherine was about to be real. Her own competitive side was kicking in. Her anger was rising. WHO was he, even?! A spoilt Slytherin boy who was probably - oh no. Nononono. No. He was flirting with her, wasn't he? He must have seen her during the feast and/or charms, and this was his way of drawing her attention. All the signs were there: the grin, the obsessive stalking, the heroism in the means of jumping weirdly to intercept her balls, the cheeky attitude... she wasn't that stupid, just so he knew. And she certainly was NOT that kind of a girl who looked for a boyfriend this young - she would have one when she graduated. She wasn't about to throw away her academics for him. And she wasn't that stupid to engage in any kind of conversation with him during the lesson either; she had already made Professor Flamsteed yell at her once. No, she would deal with him after class - if he didn't become more obsessive. The Hufflepuffs didn't even have any balls left, though; she wasn't going near the Gryffindors and she certainly wasn't going near HIM. So... that was it, then? |
Passing Slytherin ball Quote:
|
7: Catching it! Quote:
Thankfully, Kitty saw her. PERFECT! She quickly jumped into the air to catch the ball. She wasn't even distracted by the silly boy! She CAUGHT it, and quickly brought it to their area. THEY MADE IT! TAKE THAT, SLYTHERIN. |
Post 3- failed interception AND attempted steal from Gryffindor! Quote:
Desperately, she looked around, wondering who the next target would be. She hoped someone had gotten that Hufflepuff ball but if not - at least it was out of Ravenclaw hands. Speaking of, there was a Ravenclaw nearby who was getting ready to make a pass - and this was Scarlett's chance! One, two...THREE! She took three big steps and bounced off her last step, FLYING through the air and...GAH missed it by inches! And the intended target had caught it and tossed it in the Ravenclaw pile. Well that was just not going to do. Her first instinct was to try and steal the ball back - but she had a feeling that was not going to end well. They'd already seen her try to take them out! So instead...she turned to Gryffindor. Time to take from the top! Apparently Scarlett was going to have to hold down the entire Hufflepuff fort on her own. Sigh. |
Quote:
He blinked. This was a surprise; Daxton had been expecting to have to complete some equally undesirable task as those students currently flailing around the classroom, who were by now practically body-slamming into each other. But the task he was being presented with was downright appealing. Almost suspiciously so. Daxton hesitated for a very long moment, thinking hard about any way this could backfire on him, but ultimately reached out and took the parchment, nodding his head as he did so. No further reaction or comment (silent or otherwise) was really necessary, so Daxton manoeuvred his way back to where the desks were pushed up to the edges of the room, having slight difficulty what with still not having fully adjusted to the gravity situation in the room. But once he was there, Daxton climbed up to sit cross-legged on one of the desks, as far away from the action as possible with his back against the wall. Other than looking up to check the situation in the classroom every few seconds (because this was not a comfortable environment, and all he could do was remain alert and aware, and keep one ear uncovered) Daxton got stuck right in with writing out his chart, using pen on parchment as usual and leaning against his notebook as a makeshift surface. But if anyone did anything that dragged him into the proceedings - including, but not limited to, throwing one of those balls at his head, and that seemed highly likely - Daxton would be out of here, and he would give nobody the opportunity to stop him again. |
Post 4 - Steal complete from Gryffie - and calling out Flamsteed! :P WOOHOO! Scarlett had managed to snag one of the Gryffindor balls this time without anyone trying to stop her. It seemed the Ravenclaws were totally DOMINATING this game though. And her Hufflepuff teammates were NOWHERE - absolutely NOWHERE - to be found. She had to pass it to someone, as she couldn't very well just run around scooping up all the balls herself, and when she noticed that Professor Flamsteed had just dropped a ball towards Ariadne - well, this was her chance! "Psst! Professor! Could you put this on the Hufflepuff pile for me? PLEASEEEEE?" she called out. They couldn't finish with a COMPLETELY empty pile! With that, she tossed it to him, hoping he would catch it and play along with her. He wouldn't let a poor firstie finish this lesson totally empty handed, right?! |
Interception Quote:

Post 8 :: Airey's toss and attempted steal from Ravvie Quote:
Quote:
It was thrown, and just as Ariadne was about to get it, another boy STOLE IT from her! It was those Gryffindor boys again, wasn't it?! Frown on her face, Ariadne floated around to see that it actually wasn't one the Lion cubs, but one of her own teammates! She changed her expression to a smile and gave the boy a thumbs up. So she was a little disappointed that she didn't get to make the catch herself, but at least it had been a Slytherin this time! Deciding that the Gryffindor boys just weren't going to let her win, Ariadne floated over to the Ravenclaw platform and took one of their balls. Maybe they would be easier to take from! Now...where were her teammates? |
*ahem* Stealing Attempt from Gryffindor Seeing as Mr. Prince was taking care of, the astronomer turned his attention to his sundial watch and then back to the action. Hmmm...where to go next...perhaps to his own house's platform just to throw a wrench into their defenses? Always expect the unexpected! Quote:
"ALAS!" he lamented, snapping his fingers for additional effect. Then, he jumped up towards the Gryffindor platform and reached out to snatch a red ball from it. Heh. OOC: no more updates at this time. CARRY ON! |
5. defending attempt (Flamsteeed!) She was back near the Gryffindor area somehow, all this jumping around had brought her back to the HIGHEST PYRAMID BALL PILE almost like she was a worshipper of it. The jumpy dancing around only adding to the effect. Arms up and everything. Speaking of arms up, WHAT WAS PROFESSOR FLAMSTEED DOING? "TRAAAAITOR!" Charlotte jumped UP and DOVE IN BETWEEN THE PROFESSOR AND THE GRYFFINDOR PLATFORM. NOOOOOOOOO! |
Attempted steal: Ravenclaw PROFESSOR FLAMSTEED HAD BEEN STEALING FROM THEM? Mel watched in disbelief as she moved over toward the Ravenclaw platform. Her footing sure and deliberate as she made her way toward them. Surely they weren’t as suspicious of her as the Slytherins were now? Right? With that the little first year jumped with all the gusto she could muster and lifted her hands up grabbed onto the edge of the platform only to swiftly swing herself up onto it and sit down. Ravenclaw was going dowwwwwwnnnnnnn. “ANYONE WANT MY BALL?” she yelled as she grabbed a blue ball and held it in the air ready to throw it to a teammate. |
Quote:
And yea. He'd let her do that. Yup. While he inched away... He was halfway back towards the Slytherin platform when he skidded to a halt. When did Mel get to the Ravenclaw side? DIDN'T MATTER! He changed his direction and stood underneath the Ravenclaw platform. "HEY MEL! Toss it down!" |
Pass attempt Quote:
She liked him…well, for that at least. Lifting the ball she chucked it down to him. “Keep up the good work Lance” she grinned and got ready to steal again. |
Catch! Quote:
Leaping up to the Gryffindor platform, he placed the ball down. RED, YOU WILL TURN. |
post 9 i think ... stealing from slytherin and drop-kicking :P SPOILER!!: Zeke and Amur Dreams only of Maggie. And what was that, fat chance of what happening? Ugh, she definitely was not in her wisest mindset when it came to tackling the fifth year it seemed. No seriously. As he kept her firmly gripped her arms away from the ball, he did something she really should have expected. Considering this was the same kid who was using the ceiling as a medium... After he had called incoming and drop-kicked the blue ball, he wriggled free of her and was on the move. Tia had nothing left but to just sit a moment and watch. Because she wasn't in the mood to tackle anyone else and most of the movement seemed to between Slytherins and Gryffindors anyway. She did noticed Daxton trying to slip away, to which Flamsteed stopped; in a way she was kind of proud of her Ravenclaws for not being so competitive and blood-thirsty. They were winners in her eyes for being respectable. After a moment or two, and once it was announced that Ravenclaw had surpassed Hufflepuff in balls, the seventh year stood up again, making a decision to steal from the house they were next closest too in ball count. Quietly slipping over and across to the Slytherin corner, she quickly plucked one of the green balls from their pile. But didn't make any sounds, instead she just took a tip from Zeke's book and drop-kicked the green ball quickly and accurately across the room towards the Ravenclaw corner, hoping one of her Eaglets was paying attention . . . |
Gryffindor ball TOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS Quote:
"Come come now, surely ONE ball is hardly enough to be considered a traitor," he mused, his feet planted firmly on the ground once more. "Simply checking that you are all on top of your game is all." Which, he was pleased to say, they WERE. But if she really wanted it back... With a lazy underhanded throw, Airey released the red ball back HIGH into the air. |
Post 5 - INTERCEPTION! Quote:
Getting ready to bounce, she was just about to jump off from her right foot at Ariadne when she noticed that Flamsteed was now in possession of another Gryffindor ball, and it was flying in the air.... THIS WAS HER CHANCE! FOR HUFFLEPUFF! Changing her direction, she jumped with her momentum towards the Gryffindor ball and managed to GRAB it out of the air. YES!!! SUCCESS FINALLY! She landed and darted right towards the Hufflepuff platform, finally adding a ball to the very lonesome looking platform. This was just SAD. |
xD I think its a battle of wills as much as over the ball now... SPOILER!!: Hady She was trying to snatch her green ball back when......Hady came over to butt in about the battle over the ball. Why was she interjecting? That wasn't her place. She wasn't a prefect, she wasn't a professor, and she was not anyone's mother. No one was actually hurting anyone else and this was a ball war. He didn't say they couldn't take their balls back out of stealers hands, so therefore she felt it was completely fair game. She wasn't the only person to have done it, but yet she was going to choose her to try and reprimand? Umm no. She didn't argue her case or defend herself though, really she just didn't answer. She was getting this ball back, go play how you want to with your own interpretation of the rules Miss Goodie Two Shoes. SPOILER!!: Jaemin xD The little snake defended his position and was still trying to get the ball. Ilia found him particularly endearing and firmly wanted the boy to have the ball. He was trying so hard. She remembered being that size, it was hard! Heck, it was still hard.... SPOILER!!: Zeke lol Her again. "More like you again." She muttered a little. If he would just go away and attack the other platforms they would not be having an issue right now. His laugh though....kind of bugged her. He was not as funny as he thought he was..........not even remotely. Did he think because he was a guy and bigger that she wouldn't fight him for it? Nope. Wrong. Bring it! The little first year attached to him made her more intent and more fierce about it even than her little over competitive self would have been. Get her own ball back? "That is exactly what I am doing." She retorted as she tried to pry her fingers between the ball and his hand. It was green and it was theirs, just hand it over and leave. The struggle would be over. He just.....called her a psycho. Something her cousin had taught her popped into her head and came out of her mouth as a retort."I'm not a psychopath, I am a high-functioning sociopath. Do your research." She hissed at him and used all the strength she had to try and pry the ball out of his hand. His smirky smirk grin......really irritated her. He seemed to think he was something.....and it made Ilia just want to shove his head into the dirt. Her home life was leading to anger management issues it would seem..... She was not giving in or dropping this issue until this ball was in that first years hands. Submitting is not something she was going to do. She had no intention of letting go until that orb was reclaimed. |
6 - stealing attempt from Slytherin Okay the problem with DIVING all eagerly like that was that it was kind of tough to control your trajectory and she went hurtling off on an angle. Good thing she wasn't currently trying to catch anything. After some effort she straightened up and jumped towards the Slytherin platform, reaching out to grab a GREEN BALL. THIS WAS IT. THIS WOULD BE HER GLORY. Or something? |
Steal attempt: Ravenclaw Mel was still sitting on the Ravenclaw platform…it was nice over there the blue color, the quirky people and really it didn’t seem like people were paying much attention to the interloper. She grinned and gave Lance a little nod. “LANCE” she called out as she held up another blue ball and readied herself to throw it to him. Come on Ravenclaws…she was sitting on the platform stealing candy from an unguarded candy store. Too easy. Blue ball in hand, she was so ready. |
post 10 - running to catch the kicked ball *ahem* No one was noticing her which was good because it meant she could get away with the stealing from the green pile more easily. Except also none of her Eaglets were paying attention either, so Tia did the only logical thing she could thing of. Deliberating a moment, she quickly ran after her own kicked ball and swooped it back up again. Success. Grinning at her own stealth, Tia went and deposited the green ball into the pyramid of blue balls and watched as it turned blue. Since it seemed none of Eaglets were paying attention, that also meant she should probably take over as defense, in case any Gryffindors or Slytherins went for retaliation when they were done being competitive with each other. So for now, she stood by and guarded the blue balls. They'd have to go through her if they wanted to steal from Ravenclaw and she was not going to let her guard down so easily. Which started with a simply interception of the one ickle Mel just snatched ... ... "Uh, where do you think you're going?" She tapped the girl's shoulder and outstretched her arms to reach for the blue ball in her hands. |
open for steal-pass Quote:
He waves his hands at the blonde one “Over here!!” |
Quote:
Well... He was open... he supposed. Though Merlin's shining light! Hearing his name, he flipped around towards the Ravenclaw side, sighing in relief. Even more so after seeing whatshisname helping out whatshername. "COMING!" he called, jogging over to the blue platform. GIMME THE BALL. |
7. Pass attempt Green ball in hand, Char descended to the ground and bent her knees, ready to push off the ground and chuck it at someone. BUT WHO? WHO WANTED IT. "I GOT ONE! RAWWR!" That meant, hey Gryffindors, look HERE. Butt boy was ignoring her probably. WELL SHE WOULD DEAL WITH THAT LATER. THERE. THE SOMERSAULT KID. Probably she should find out his name. Charlotte pushed off the ground and tossed the ball at the first year. GOOOOOOOOOOO! |
Catching! Quote:
"Alright come to Papa!" SWOOP goes the ball in his hands RED goes the ball on their platform SCORE! |
Pass attempt Quote:
Still turning her attention to Lance she nodded and sent the blue ball soaring toward him as quickly as she could. The ravenclaws were going down. THIS was a joint effort wasn’t it? The gryffindors were like a well oiled machine of EPIC. |
Catch! Quote:
Sweeeeet. "GRYFFINDOOOOOOOOOOOR!" he roared, doing his best to get to the red platform in as few leaps as possible. Use those leg muscles! With his feet on the surface, he smacked the ball down onto the platform, turning it red. |
Post 6 - Pass Attempt? Hufflepuff was losing. Everyone kept stealing balls from each other now that there weren't any more balls in the middle platform to take from. What sort of game was this? Couldn't they just SHARE an equal amount!? His values felt it had been stabbed repeatedly. His stomach churned, watching at how the students were going at each other. He stopped bouncing and stared at the barbarity of the situation...Sigh "Anyone of you puff lads want this ball," Henric called up to the hufflepuff platform so he could pass this ball up to them. Honestly, at this point...he wasn't feeling it. My fellow Hufflepuffs, good luck. Henric heard shouting. Her voice sounded familiar. He glanced back towards the Slytherin platform and was shocked to find llia literally trying to get the ball out of Zeke's hand. Bloody merlin...what was going on there?! |
8. Charlotting YAY SOMERSAULT KID! Now that that was out of the way, Charlotte was free to steal again! Except.... except she kind of felt bad. Look at poor Hufflepuff. Not that she was gonna HELP them.... except in her thoughts. She bounced up and down and THOUGHT GOOD LUCK REALLY HARD IN THE DIRECTION OF EVERYONE ELSE. .... that would be enough contribution right? To the other teams? Good wishes? RIGHT! Back to it the--heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy what was Daxton doing over there?! |
gosh... gosh... drama... <333 SPOILER!!: Jaemin and Iliya .... Okkkaaaaayyyyy. Thanks Hady, but no thanks. Didn't help. But it did make things even MORE amusing for him. Seriously, SO amusing. It took TWO Slytherin's to hold him down - though it did pose problems. Like, how was he going to get out of this without surrendering? Because he didn't plan to, AND if that was the case, how long would it take for them to let go? How long left did they have in the lesson? Flamsteed??? He kind of approved of the Squirt though, cause he was holding on for dear life. Not trying anything, just holding. Keep at it kid, we might even be gentle with shaking you off once we ditch the crazy. But blahdablahdablah... girly could talk, and whine and moan and SWEET MOTHER OF CIRCE! "Why are you trying to hold my hand?!" he asked LOUDLY, because hello, her fingers seemed to be working pretty hard trying to get between his palm and the ball. Again, with a a tight grip, ball pressed between his two hands, she would need more than a few fingers to get it out. "I don't how your boyfriend feels about this, but I doubt my girlfriend would appreciate you feeling me up like that. Stop please?" Yes, please, stop. You're really not his type. And WHAT EVEN?! "A what now?" he questioned, on the verge of laughing again. A sociopath? "So you are crazy then?" |
........i dont even know Leaving the Ravenclaw platform for a while the little Gryffindor girl just sauntered over to the hufflepuff platform and jumped up to catch the edge of it. “Hi,” she called out to anyone there…”I’m not stealing, I’m just sititng here…you guys looked lonely….i’m Mel” She added with a nod. “HEY should we give Hufflepuff another ball?” She asked because, well, their ball was going to be lonely wouldn’t it? And having only one ball made them well, the balls sad didn’t it? Maybe it did. She didn’t know. “I’m just using your platform for a trick” she nodded stood up and moved to the back of the platform where she simply ran and JUMPED hurling herself up higher into the air – hey this was fun! AND a quick summer sault and she was floating and spinning and flopping in the air like a giant mess. “THIS IS REALLY FUN TENACIUS” she yelled out grinning to her friend and gave him a thumbs up. |
Post 7: :=====O *more concern of Zeke's life* Sweet merlin! Henric's red ball was still in possesion, he bounced as fast as he could towards the slytherin platform. Oh no...he could see his girlfriend up there struggling and flipping out over the ball! ZEKE! ARE YOU INSANE MATE! His mind was racing with all the disastrous possibilities llia could do to Zeke if he didn't let go of the ball. He knew how llia could get super competitive when it came to defending her territory but he didn't expect that it could turn out this bad. Henric wasn't sure if he should come up there, he probably would lose his eyes or an arm but he didn't want anyone to get hurt. "Guys! Its only a game! Please don't fight over that ball!" he shouted over to them. He jumped up. He saw that they were still going at it! He heard the last part of what Zeke said about her. Crazy? Mate, you hadn't seen anything yet! He felt he should do something now before things got out of hand. PROFESSOR FLAMSTEED, help! |
*catches this* *throws it again* AWAY WITH YOU TEENAGE ANGST! Quote:
Leaping up to catch it, Airey held on tight to the ball as he began to fall back down to the ground when SOMETHING caught his attention. Certain loud shouts from a certain fifth year Gryffindor, to be precise. "NO PUBLIC DISPLAYS OF AFFECTION IN MY CLASSROOM!" he shouted like a toddler throwing a tantrum in the middle of Honeydukes because he could not have a chocolate frog. The professor's tantrum was even complete with him throwing the ball he had just caught TOWARDS the pair (er...small group?) in question. Which also prompted him to check his sundial watch and...oh sweet solstice! Look at the time. "DISENGAGE! DISENGAGE!" he roared from the ground. Especially those doing all that hand holding. "Time is up!" Class unofficially dismissed and would be officially dismissed once he had announced the results. Which would happen once he had contained the vein. OOC: THAT'S ALL FOLKS! (but that ball is up for grabs) Next post will be the official results of the activity :3 Thank you all for playing! |
Oh drama *hides and closes eyes* <3 Quote:
"You disgust me and so does touching you even so much as to reclaim the ball. So let go of it please and I will happily stop being anywhere near you." She retorted sharply. It wasn't about the ball anymore....nope. It was about the principle now and she wouldn't let go even if blood were drawn. It just got personal. She did her best to sink her nails into the balls surface and try to rip it from his hands. He sounded like he would laugh and it just.....reminded her of her mother and made her all the angrier. She started just trying to play, trying to win.....do something redeeming but this guy got under her skin and it was going a bit far. Quote:

SPOILER!!: Henric, PROF FLAMMERS and Iliyathecrazyone This was definitely BEYOND ridiculous for an Astronomy lesson, though easily one of the most entertaining. Brilliant. What added to the CHARGED atmosphere was Henric's appearance. Was he here to wrangle his girlfriend in? Sort her out? Calm her farm? Yes? Please? Of course, she was right, it wasn't about the game, definitely not about the game... "Dude, get her off me, yeah?" like, it was WEIRD. He wasn't into the whole sharing love and affections thing. He was a one Snake man. ... and blahblahblah, yes crazy psycho, YOU ARE CRAZY PSYCHO. There was little else that could explain her behaviour right now, she was officially nuts. The egotistical prat thing, well, yes, that was him. Zeke grinned, nodding his head as if it was music to his ears. He'd take it. But her whole tirade after that was just plain hurtful. Sheeesh, what got her undies in a knot? "If I disgust you so much then why are you still touching me?" Hhhhmmm? Really, it made no sense. Like, if she wanted the ball YES she would have to go through him, and that meant touching. Clearly she didn't mind it as much as she said she did. Women. But------ OOOOMMMPPHH... a ball bounced off the side of his head, Flamsteed's words echoing in his ears. Public displays of affection? Not him, no, HER, yes. Her fault. IT WAS ALL HER FAULT. "She came onto me, Sir!" he called out, so it was all clear. "'kay, thank you." For like totally saving him. BUT, alas, the game was over. "It was fun playing, have your dumb ball then," he quipped, loosening his grip and letting her rip it from him like the child that she was. The crazy child. Seriously Henric, you could do SO much better man, SO much better. Zeke gave him a sympathetic look which read something like 'good luck'. Still facing the mob, Zeke gave a small parting wave, and took a jump backwards off the platform. He had better places to be. |
fun times yes <3 With the number of balls they currently have on their platform, Tenacius had to wonder how all of them are staying in their zone. Lets just say he's relieved that it isnt crashing down on them like an avalanche... At least not yet. He saw Mel hanging around the Hufflepuff platform talking about lonely balls. Snicker snicker immature boy snickering. Yeah guy humor go figure. But finally he heard the Professor yell out disengage. Finally game over-- but GOOD game over. "Did we win??!?" it was fun but yeah he'd like to know if all the balls in the face was worth it. Also there he goes, climbing the mountain of red balls. King of the hill moment yup. |
<3333333333 SPOILER!!: Professor McAngry Suit and Zekethejerk XD Get her off of him? Eww! Just drop the ball and submit! Henric, seriously.....she tried to be good. Look at this prat! Why was she still touching him!? "Because you can't have the ball and I don't give up." Seriously, just because something was gross....it wasn't going to stop her. She was too tenacious for that and despite the outfits she wore for Henric, she was NOT a girly girl. Ugh. He had to go and roar. Lions with their big mouths. There went Professor Flamsuits....raging. Affection!? Oh no....this was the polar opposite. Hell would freeze over. Eeep! He threw the ball in his hand and she ducked CAME ON TO HIM!!!!!????? This....this was why she currently wanted to hex him. How dare that prat!? "Not even if you were the last male on Earth or Mars." Hisss. Disengage.....but she still wouldn't submit. She wanted nothing to do with him other than beat him in the test of wills. No sense backing down at the last moment and he was too smug. She couldn't let him win. She was 100% hell bent on that last moment of personal victory. If it was so dumb, why wouldn't he let go either? No, it started as the ball....then it went beyond. She could have let it go and walked away without a grudge until he had to say she wanted to hold his hand. That was like signing a death warrant. Regardless.....it did feel better to rip it from him. Some small form of victory and control in her repressed world. Once she had the ball, she chucked it back onto the green pyramid with a blank expression. She wanted to hug Henric with all of her might and apologize for her public display of aggression, but yet again....someone was in the way of that. An angry astronomy professor to be precise....... |
class dismissed! Oh sweet solstice. What had he done to deserve this? WHAT?! Couldn't students just check the teenage angst at the lint roller and not...well...NOT BE LIKE THIS IN HIS CLASSROOM BECAUSE HIS HEAD WAS ABOUT TO SPIN OFF INTO ORBIT! "And I care not if you both are the last two people on Pluto, which isn't even a planet," Airey retorted, arms flailing in the air as if smacking away any floating teenage hormones that may infect the classroom. And no, Mr. Zeke, he did not care nor want to even think about who was coming on to who. BECAUSE IT SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING IN HIS CLASSROOM TO BEGIN WITH! Or had the young man not learned his lesson after last year? "This behavior will not be tolerated in my classroom again, understood?" If not, there was a perfectly good dungeon he knew that could help illustration this for the both of them. No problem. Adjusting his tie, the professor addressed the rest of the class. "Our final standings are Gryffindor in first place, Slytherin in second, Ravenclaw in third, and Hufflepuff in fourth," he declared. "Well done everyone. Class dismissed!" Now...about these two... were they through with...whatever this was? OOC: Class dismissed! Thank you all for coming and participating <33 |
Hady had gotten herself back into a rhythm with jumping on and off of the Slytherin's platform. Her attention had been on anyone else that was trying to attempt to take a green ball from her house as well as anyone from her house that needed someone to pass a taken ball to. Even given the situation before and the continued shouting or whatever was going on she felt as if her team were still doing a decent job. That proved to be correct when Professor Airey called an end to the game as well as announcing her house came in second place. Not to bad really but Hady was positive they could've gotten first had it not been for things going on. Anyhow at the shout of 'Class Dismissed' the brunette jumped down from the platform for the last time and made her way to the side of the room where her desk had been pushed to. Putting all her things away she slung the strap of the bag over her shoulder. "Thanks for the lesson Admiral Airey!," she called out over her shoulder just before walking out the door. |
Henric was so stunned by llia's outburst, he went still for a second. Zeke, what did you say to make her mad like this? Wait...what? Nobody called his girlfriend phycho! That wasn't nice. Then Zeke began to act...well himself again. Henric knew the guy was like that since the beginning but llia didn't. Honestly, it would not end well if Zeke kept on being "ungentlemanly" towards her...nope. Not just him alone, he was a little upset over llia's abrupt behaviour too. Henric would never sink beneath their level and he would act with decorum if necessary. Thank goodness for Professor Flamsteed blowing a whistle at them, Henric honestly wanted to break this two up...by brute force if he had to. They weren't fighting over the ball anymore, it was the battle of who got the last say between them. Henric rolled his eyes at Zeke, he had nothing to say to the guy. He would rather have him leave before Professor Flamsteed gave them both a detention. Henric wouldn't want Zeke and llia ended up in the lovers lair...for merlin sake...no. Henric remained silent until his professor declared the class to be dismissed. He just stood there, staring at llia. "I'll wait for you outside class...okay?" he asked her after a moment passed. He didn't say anything more and grabbed his schoolbag before exited the classroom. Henric's face was stoic still. |
The game was done and Ravenclaw had brought third. That was disappointing but at least it wasn't final place. Rachel felt bad for Hufflepuff especially since Henric was apart of that House. Possibly they would get a win in another class. She gathered her belongings, ignoring Ilia and that other "Good bye, Professor. Thank you for a wonderful first lesson."She smiled at the Astronomer before looking around for Haddie. |
Whew! That had been pretty fun actually, not at all dangerous like how Kitty had first feared. She had even managed to steal two balls without being injured or even stopped. Ravenclaw hadn't won, but what mattered was that they all had fun, right? Kitty skipped towards the exit. "Good Bye Professor Flamsteed, that was awesome!" Kitty waved and smiled at the professor, her usual shyness in front of grown ups completely gone for the moment. Then she skipped out of the low gravity classroom, wondering to herself if the DADA lesson would also be this fun. |
Tenacius managed to get to the top of the red But the Professor calls out the winners aaaand... "WE WON!!!" Tenacius hollered from the top of the red hill, fist pumping the air several times before yelling out the victory cry "GRYFFINDOARRRRRRR!!!" sliding down the red hill and doing final somersault into the air before floating gracefully down like a capeless superhero. "Thanks for the lesson Professor Flame-On!" Yeah he just got a nickname. Hooah! |
She just watched the entire game after stealing back the ball from the Hufflepuff snatcher.... and beamed happily. Gryffindors did very well and... THEY WON!! Ava threw her fists to the air and jumped. This was a pretty interesting and fun activity. And yeah, she didn't miss the drama between Zeke and Ilia. It was entertaining though. "We don't get any present for being the first place, Professor?" The young lioness asked. "Interesting class by the way. See you later, Professor!" |
That. Had. Been. Awesome. Sure, they hadn't won, but they hadn't been dead last either, so at least they were walking away with some of their dignity. As Ariadne returned to the floor, she made a promise to herself to find SOME way to defeat those Gryffindor boys. She didn't know how. She didn't know when. She didn't know where. She'd do it, though! Apparently there had been some kind of drama, because the professor was letting two of the students have it. Ariadne had no idea what had happened, and she was ready to go now that the game was over. She ignored the drama and instead turned to the professor with a big grin. "Thanks for the super cool lesson, Professor!" she said. She grabbed the rest of her belongings then made her way to the door. |

She was very certain of that. And of course it had been his house that benefited from the ruling. Bah! Haddie collected her things and Penny's blanket and followed her best friend out of the Astronomy classroom. It was only when they were well out of ear shot of the meddlesome Professor, that Haddie turned to Rachel and grinned. "That was fun." |
They didn't win, and Katherine was sure it was the fault of that Slytherin boy. No, having fun wasn't important. If there was something to win, having fun never mattered. So she sulked, glared at the boy again, and only tried to put on a smile for the Professor, who turned out to be a good man after all. The activity hadn't been so awful in the end. It was even safe, jumping and all, though she was too proud to ever admit that. "Thank you for the lesson, Professor," she called, and got out of the classroom quickly to catch the idiot who cost them the game. |
Awww, the game was over? Jaemin had kept his grip on the big Gryffindor's arm right up until he let go of the ball; with a satisfied smile he had let go, and settled on the floor below the platform. The game was over already? That was so sad... And they had come in second. While first would have been preferable... second wasnt bad, and the tiny boy had done his part. He couldn't have done much more, right? Lightly he patted the floor with his palms before standing and moving to collect his things. Before he would leave though... he had QUESTIONS. "Professor?" He had approached the man quietly, and very nearly reached to touch his arm before remembering the suit meltdown. "The gravity thing in here... is that a spell I could learn, maybe?" ...he had experiments to do. |
Saying his farewells as student departed, the occasional Vulcan salute thrown out as well, the Astronomy professor waited for the PDA duo to explain themselves. Or at least accept defeat. Quote:
"It is indeed," he grinned. A personal invention, actually, thanks in part to his background in Experimental Magic & Research. "It is a bit of advanced magic," he advised, and not something a first year could master but that did not mean that practice would be entirely fruitless. "Stop by my office sometime and you can practice." |
She was back on the ground finally, sadly, really. It was such a fun class! All of the running and jumping and the floating all of it had been extremely pleasurable to the little bundle of awkward that was Melbourne Johanson. “Professor Flamsteed thank you for such a fun class!” She beamed up at her Professor who was like the height of a yeti compared to her…heck, anything was a giant to her. Everyone was. “I had a lot of fun today…I was wondering are we going to do more advanced Terraforming activities later in the year?” She asked excitedly. Maybe they could take a trip to Mars?....but wait what if they got stuck there? That wouldn’t be good. But she didn’t bring that up she was just excited for the class today. With that last question she started to head towards the door. |
SPOILER!!: Sorry Professor xD Sir Suits-a-lot was at raising his voice again. Seriously? He was the responsible adult that was to be their example? And he was STILL picking on Pluto!? Seriously, what did Pluto ever do to him? It wasn't its fault that it was a dwarf! You sizest! Despite being an immature sizest, it seemed that the raging AstroNut was not going to bestow detention for her indiscretion. Good enough......"Understood, Sir." She accepted quietly with a nod and polite bow. SPOILER!!: Henric :O About time the ugly matter of jerk lions came to a close. However.....it seemed it wasn't over. Henric's face was .....way too calm. That was not like him. Stoic and indifferent was typically her face......not her Puff sweetheart's. He just stared at her and.....it unsettled her. His question, she replied by nodded silently. Any triumph she felt from beating the lion and defending her pride, fidelity, and honor was instantly laid low. All her anger was overshadowed by concern for him. What did she do wrong? Her expression threatened sorrow for the thought that she may have wronged him somehow, so she choked it up back into the expressionless porcelain mask that it typically was. She walked to collect her satchel so that she could see him without any further delay. SPOILER!!: Rachel, horrible time lol She was walking after Henric to see what was wrong and what she could do to fix it, when a certain little pain in the posterior marched her self important visage into the mix. What she chose to let come out of her trap though.....oh hell no. That's it. The rage that had been stayed by her concern for Henric, just amplified and rose again. Her pretty countenance held a flash of contempt and ferocity. She couldn't stop her feet from carrying her over to the girl as she glared down at the brat with the intensity of a provoked Ridgeback. "And little girls should mind sticking their nose where it doesn't belong, lest they be bereft of it." There were hexes for that, brat. She was sick of pretty much everyone right now. Everyone but the one person who's opinion she actually did care about. "Chirp, understand. I don't really give a damn what you think." Her voice was cold and very much done. She had a lot inside that she was choking down still and Adi wasn't here to still the storm anymore. "You and anyone else who thinks that they can tell me who or what to be, who I should and shouldn't care about, and what I should and shouldn't do........can go to Helheimr and swiftly so! Don't forget to take your opinions, self righteousness, and judgments with you. Bugger off." She was over it and done with everything. Her mother, this kid, anyone who wanted to try and boss her around in whatever way, for whatever reason, could just take a hike. It was bad enough having to deal with her mother and the threat of arranged marriage, where did anyone else think they had the right? They didn't. She refused to tolerate it. No one was forcing her to be what or who they thought she should be. She grabbed her satchel, turned on her heel and stormed out of the classroom. She had no more time for this, Henric and Henric alone could bother her right now. |
Carl was not even sure what was going on. One minute he was debating about Mars, next he was doing an activity and now class was dismissed. He had not contributed much to Hufflepuff's platform and was ashamed to hear that her House came in fourth. He walked down from the platform and made his way to his desk. After packing all his things away, Carl swung his bag over his shoulder and said, "Thank you for the lesson, Professor Flamsteed!" Then he walked out of the classroom, determined to go over what he had learned in the lesson. |

"Not if you were the last female in existence," he countered, because as HURTFUL as her words were, he knew he was gods gift. She was obviously a crazy sociopathic psycho anomaly that STILL wanted to touch him regardless. He was faultless in all this. Quote:
BUT something he could help, was never rocking up to class again. That could be HIS service to the school. Mmhhmm. Also though, yay for Gryffindor winning? |
Quote:
"I'll come see you sometime soon then!" he chirped, holding up a hand and fumbling a bit to do the Vulcan finger thingy the professor's rules talked about. Still didn't understand it, still couldn't quite make his fingers go the way they were supposed to, but as with all things... effort counted, right? "Bye professor! Thank you!" And with that, the boy bounced himself right out the door, humming excitedly. He was gonna learn advaaaaaaaanced magic. |
Flaaaamsteeeeed So the Game was Over? Noooooo Tory really wished the game wasn't over, even if he only played very briefly and then spent the remainder of it pretending to fly off in his own little world. So many leap and bounds were made by the young boy. So often were his hands extended out as if they were wings. but now they were once again restricted by Gravity. What was he to do with himself. He looked at his hands then starred at the ceiling which was once closer. He then starred at the Professor. Truly this was the closest he's ever been to flying (without help from a Broom) and it was all thanks to that man. Tory grabbed his school bag, slung it over his shoulder then walked up to his Head of House and embraced him in a Hug form the side. |
SPOILER!!: THIS Of for the love of Merlin... Not that Airey actually wanted Merlin's love. What? TEENAGERS WERE GOING TO BE THE DEATH OF HIM AND NOTHING MADE SENSE. "Mr. Zeke, enough," he barked exasperated at the Gryffindor. Although it was more like a yip as far as animal sounds were concerned. "And it would do you some good to release a bit of air from that ego of yours before your head exits the atmosphere." The latter said more quietly so that only the Gryffindor could hear, of course. He glared at the pair of them again, vein now contained, but still eyeballing the both of them as they left. Quote:
Abstract terraforming. When you squinted and looked at it sideways. Quote:

Oh sweet solstice. WHAT had he DONE to deserve all this?! "Mr. Spade?" he said with a deceptive calmness. "Get. Off. Now." He inhaled sharply through his nose before adding, "...please." OOC: I will officially close this thread before I head to bed ^_^ |

The young lion shook his head his Fro bouncing about atop him. He would definitely be writing about this to his Dad. He adjusted the Bag over his shoulder once more and scampered off to the exit. "Turning around once more. He remembered one more thing he had to say. "Thank you very much for the lesson as well." Yup, Tory wasn't going be scolded by Uncle Julien for being nice to his Head of House. No Sir, he was going to be on this Guys Good Side...if there was one? The Guy did like to yell a lot, it seemed. |

Counting down from 10 in Klingon in his head, the astronomer simply saluted towards the first year as he departed. He was not going to look down at his suit and freak out about how it was all wrinkle now. Instead, he was going to politely incline his head to each of the remaining students as they exited. When the last student had left, Airey returned to his desk and scooped up Pebbles. With a few lavish flicks and swishes of his wand, the remaining enchantments on the classroom were removed and desks returned to their normal places. Giving everything a final look over, the professor left the room himself and locked the door behind him. |
