Haddie's voice broke his concentration though, and he looked at her as she came closer. Strawberry? His eyes went to the apple in her hands, then back to her face. "...apple." That is an apple, Hadley Denaker. He could totally help her with the spell though. Didn't mean she would be able to do it, at least not the way the professor did, because... well he couldn't do that, either. But she could get it to work a little. Haddie was smart and stuff. "I had to practice it a lot to make it stay up there like that," he murmured, glancing up at the granny smith still ever-so-slowly coming back down. "Professor Flamsteed taught me last term, and I practiced all the rest of the year and over the summer. At first all I could do was make stuff like... fall a little slower." Nothing near zero gravity. Just... less. You know? So she shouldn't be disappointed if she couldn't make the apple stay up at first, because... well they were still kids. They weren't gonna be good at everything right off. "The way he taught me, you gotta be really specific about making sure the spell gets said right, and that the circles finish right on the end of the spell. The timing is super important." Even with his improvement in timing and all his practice last term, he still hadn't been able to change the gravity this much for a really really long time. Flamsteed hadn't been kidding when he said it was an advanced spell. He glanced in the direction of Prefect Dot, immediately grinning brightly when he saw that she had gotten it to work. GOOD JOB PREFECT DOT. It wasn't a surprise or anything that she could do it, because she was soooooo smart and good at stuff. That was why she was his favourite prefect. It was just really cool that she could do it too. Hehe. |
This was pretty cool. Kaycee had zero use for this spell. But hey, it was pretty interesting. Derivo Gravitatem. Derivo Gravitatem. She repeated this to herself a few times. "Derivo Gravitatem" she said making a counterclockwise circle. Eesh. And the timing was WAYYYY off. The word was way too long. How was she supposed to get the timing right? She silently practiced her pacing while repeating the spell to herself in her head. |
SPOILER!!: Jaemin Hads chuckled softly to herself. "No, no." She pointed at the apple in her hand. "Apple." Then at Jaemin. "Strawberry," Shortcake. "Unless you want to go back to Shortstack, Strawberry." Check and mate. She listened calmly to his explanation. A little bit long-winded and he seemed way too focused on the difficulty of the spell, or at least convincing her it was waaaaay tricky. Like he wanted her to know she couldn't get it and not to get her hopes up. Ouch. Thanks for the confidence there Strawberry Shortcake. But in the midst of all that was some real gems Hadley was looking for. "Timing, got it." She aimed her wand at an empty spot on the floor, and began to practice her timing. "Derivo Gravitat..." She twirled her wand to fast. "Derivo Gravitate..." Still too fast. "Derivo Gravitatem!" Too slow this time. She practiced the timing about thrity more times before she was confident enough that she was ending the twirl and the incantation at the same time. "Derivo Gravitatem!" Twirl one a success. "Derivo Gravitatem!" Twirl two a success. "Derivo Gravitatem!" Twirl three a success. Hadley tossed the apple in the air and it fell, like an apple, with normal gravity. She caught it. "Huh." No worries. Like the tiny boy said, a hard spell. She set the apple down to try again. |
Derivo Gravitatem. Dalton traced the letters carefully into his notebook, adding details about the wand movement underneath, before lowering his pen and picking up his apple again. For a moment, he was happy to just throw it back and forth between his hands again, letting his eyes wander on the students around him as they attempted the spell. Catching the apple in his left hand, the fifth year sat up straight in his chair and fished around in his robe pocket, pulling out his wand. Three counter-clockwise circles, he reminded himself, performing the action. "Right." Dalt took a deep breath and concentrated. "Derivo Gravitatem. Derivo Gravitatem." Second circle closed. "Derivo Gravitatem." He frowned, tossing his apple up slightly, unsurprised that the spell hadn't worked. Timing the speaking of the spell with the closing of the circle was harder than he imagined. "And again." He muttered under his breath, before raising his wand again. "Derivo Gravitatem. Derivo Gravitatem. Derivo Gravitatem." |
They were practicing a spell that would simulate what it was like to have no gravitational pull? She had a bad feeling about this one. If they were going to be doing this spell on themselves this class, it would be just her sort of luck to fall and break her arm or something. Knowing Azura, the younger Ravenclaw female was likely to somehow break her nose. Having students do this on themselves would just be asking Ravenclaw females to Ravenclaw female. This was not likely to end well. At least it was only apples for now. With no other forces acting on it, an object at motion would stay in motion until acted on by an unbalanced force. The apple would keep going until it hit the ceiling. Time to try the spell. Penelope said the incantation three times, each time making a counterclockwise circle with her wand. "Derivo Gravitatem. Derivo Gravitatem. Derivo Gravitatem." She picked up her apple and lightly tossed it into the air. The apple came back down and landed in her hand. Gravity was still acting on the apple. Now for a second attempt. "Derivo Gravitatem. Derivo Gravitatem. Derivo Gravitatem." Penelope made the counterclockwise circular motion with her wand three times as she said the incantation. Upon tossing the apple into the air again, it was discovered that gravity still worked as normal. Penelope moved her wand in counterclockwise circles as she said the incantation again. "Derivo Gravitatem. Derivo Gravitatem. Derivo Gravitatem." This time when she tossed the apple into the air it continued to move up until it hit the ceiling and ceased to move. Success. Hopefully none of the apples that had already made it to the ceiling or were being tossed and falling back down would fall on her. Should she be helping younger students? |
Torn between being excited to learn a spell and baffled as to exactly why anyone would choose to use a more difficult spell when there were others that were easier and did similar things, Charlotte's attention, quite naturally, wandered. Instead of working on the spell or her notes or anything else, she started mentally ranking the boys in the room by order of cuteness, and tried to be objective about it too. It was strange really, it was sort of like some people had a kind of gravity about them, like they PULLED your attention towards them? Relevance! Perhaps she was on task after all! |
Fiyero blinked. He wasn't exactly sure how he felt about an anti-gravity spell. Were they going to be using it on themselves later? That sounded fun... but hard. He didn't understand why they couldn't just use Wingardium Leviosa, but then again he wasn't the Astronomy teacher. He looked around the room and saw that many of the older students were having trouble with the spell. It shook his confidence a little, but he wasn't one to back down from a challenge. He tightened his grip around his wand as he pointed it at the apple in front of him. "Derivo gravitatum," he said, tracing a circle around the apple. "Derivo gravitatum. Derivo gravitatum." Had that worked? Did he do it? As Fiyero set his wand down, his elbow bumped the apple. It rolled off the desk, but he just managed to grab it before it could go splat. Well, that answered that question! Fiyero wondered what he'd done wrong. Had he been tracing the circle the wrong way? No, he was sure he'd done it counterclockwise. Still unsure, he tried again. "Derivo gravitatum. Derivo gravitatum. Derivo gravitatum." He tossed his apple, watching it as it went up. For a split second, he thought he'd done it... until the apple came back down. He caught the falling apple in his left hand, setting it down hard. Why couldn't he get it right?! He was beginning to get frustrated! |
SPOILER!!: Rooney! Sweet solstice what was it with these kids and apples?! "Apple down, Mr. Bronwyn," the astronomer warned. Maybe he SHOULD have done something to the apples. SPOILER!!: Tenacius Back to the class for a moment while he wrote a few things on the blackboard, but offered the Gryffindor a glance over his shoulder with his question. Did the boy mean other than what he had already addressed? "There are quite a number of differences," Airey nodded. "One being that the spell does not influence the object itself exactly, but rather the air molecules around it. Also, once performed correctly, there is no need for your wand to guide it. In fact, there is no guiding that can be done at all with the wand." Just for starters. Attention back to the board, Airey finished up what he had been writing before the Gryffindor's question and then turned back towards the class....which also meant that he caught the movements of a certain Ravenclaw. "Mr. Prince...you have not been excused. Back in your seat." Quote:
"An object at rest tends to stay at rest," he said, pointing to the darts specifically. "Unless there is an outside force acting upon it. That outside force will be the very apples in your hands. Using the spell you just practiced, your goal is to hit a dart and send it sailing up towards the balloons and, hopefully, pop one of them. Your apple will rebound back to you as is indicated by Newton's third law. Once you retrieve your apple, you may try again. The goal is to pop the balloons belonging to the house other than your own." And there was no need for anyone to be concerned about falling debris seeing as the balloons and darts were enchanted objects and would vanish upon impact. Something he ought to have said aloud, but alas. "Which ever house has the most balloons remaining by the end of 30 minutes is the winner! Oh your mark...get set...ENGAGE!" OOC: ACTIVITY TIME! Please keep the following guidelines in mind as you RP. |
#1 - No ballon popping *casually appears in lesson**been here the whole time, lalala* THAT was going to be a FUN activity! Matt eyed all of the balloons floating way above their heads and the DARTS. Those looked pointy and ready to POP the balloons, but they were also way above their reach. Matt was still holding his apple, having failed the several attempts to get the spell to work. He had not given up, though! He wanted to POP them BALLOONS!! ALL of them! ...Even Gryffindor ones. But he wouldn't do that because that would mean they would lose and Matt did enjoy winning sometimes. RIGHT. Spell. He waved his wand in a counterclockwise motion aroooound the apple. Three times. And each time he repeated the incantation. "Derivo Gravitatem. Derivo Gravitatem. Derivo Gravitatem." The boy created a nice fun rhythm to say the words as he did the circles and soon enough he had a tune going on, to which he bopped his head as he kept trying to get the spell right. "Derivo Gravitatem! Derivo Gravitatem! Derivo Gravitatem. Boom boom boom boom!" No dancing this time, though. Matt actually wanted to get the spell right to he could POP SOME BALLOONS. Apple drop. Meh. "Come on, apple!" |
Post 1. No Balloon The game was starting and Olly had not successfully performed the spell. It was hard. But he had been looking around and there were some other Slytherins who had gotten it. Namely Jaemin and Dot. That made him feel a bit better about the game, but he still had to try getting the spell himself. He lifted his wand in front of the apple and tried again. "Derivo Gravitatem." One circle. "Derivo Gravitatem." Two circles. "Derivo Gravitatem." And three circles. He tossed the apple into the air, but caught it again because it did not stay up. Darn. He tried again. Three incantations and three circles. Did the apple fall back down slower this time? He could only hope. Olly sighed and lifted his wand again. He glanced up at the darts and the balloons. Was there a way he could do this without having to perform the spell? Surely he could just...throw the apple? |
Post 1 (No balloons popped) Fiyero blinked dumbly. Let's see if he understood Professor Flamsteed's instructions... So he was supposed to use a floating apple to hit the darts and make them pop the yellow, blue, and green balloons on the ceiling? That sounded hard... especially considering the fact that he hadn't been able to cast the antigravity spell yet! After several failed tries, Fiyero was no closer to reversing his apple's gravity than when he started. He didn't think he was ever going to get it right! He thought about giving up but decided to keep at it; Fiyero Jones was no quitter! His mind ran through his past attempts, and suddenly he realized what he'd been doing wrong. He was circling his wand around the apple much too fast! He remembered Flamsteed saying something about three rotations, each ending on the last syllable of the spell. With a look of deep concentration, Fiyero once again pointed his wand at the apple in front of him. "Derivo gravitatem," he said, tracing one perfect circle as he said the word. "Derivo gravitatum. Derivo gravitatum." Fiyero hesitated about throwing his apple; he was sure this time would be no different than the others. He held out his free hand to catch the falling apple, but this time nothing happened... no apple dropping into his hand, no loud splat sound. Weird... He glanced up to see his red apple floating overhead. Whoa... he actually did it! He was feeling pleased with himself for finally casting that spell when he remembered getting the apple in the air was only half the challenge. He still had to guide it toward the darts - and fast, before people starting popping Gryffindor balloons! |
Post 1 (No Balloons) WHAT?! No. There was noway possible that it had been ten minutes already and she still hadn't managed to get this darn charm to work! Airey was seriously messing with their heads cause he was eager to get on with lesson before the ghosty lady said anything else about him. That had to be it because there wasn't anyway it had been the amount of time the man was claiming it had been. Hadleigh frowned. Actually frowned right then staring upwards at not only a ton of balloons but darts too. Now normally she would be jumping for joy about an activity like this but not today. Not when her focus was lost and she couldn't even cast the stupid charm. She was about to make a complete fool of herself even worse then she had been lately. Was it possible for her to just sit off to the side and watch the others? It wasn't like she was going to be of much help to her house right now anyhow. Sadly she really didn't think so as her eyes strayed towards Airey and then around the room. How was it possible that first years could make it work and she couldn't?!?! Grumbling quietly under her breath she pulled her attention from those little ones that were doing things right and onto the apple which she still had to pick up from the floor. Getting up and grabbing her apple she returned to her seat. Aiming her wand at it she slowly made a circle over the top of the apple. "Derivo Gravitatem." Then another circle while saying the incantation again and then once more for the third time. Picking the apple up she tossed it into the air for it to promptly fall straight back down only this time into her awaiting hand. SIGH. |
Post 2 (No balloon) Try try again. Olly stared at his apple, a little angry it wouldn't float. As if that was the apple's fault. He liked to think that maybe it was a little bit. Except it probably wasn't at all. He just couldn't do the spell correctly. He would be really careful this time, make sure everything was said at the exact right time. "Derivo Gravita-tem." He made sure to close the first circle right on the last part of the incantation. He made a second circle and repeated the incantation. "Derivo Gravitatem." Finish the circle right on the end of that incantation. He started a third circle. "Derivo Gravitatem." The third circle was finished right as he finished saying the incantation. He was hopeful that it might work this time. He aimed toward a dart and tossed the apple. It flew up, up up. The apple hit one of the darts and sent it flying, though it did not hit any of the balloons. But instead of floating like it was supposed to, the apple hurtled back to earth because stupid gravity was still acting on it. |
Post 1 No Balloon popped Azura grabbed her apple as it came back down to her and she held it for a moment, her fingers gently stroking it's green skin as Professor Flamsteed talked. Her purple eyes went wide as she watched the balloons come out and then.. out came the darts as well!! She bit her lip as the Professor explained the rules and she instantly felt a bit bad. She didn't want to pop any other houses balloons! She liked the other houses! She had good friends in them all! Her cousin and Noelle were in Gryffindor, so was Mel. Torie, Esme, Juno and Brady were all in Hufflepuff, Cornelius and Ariadne were in Slytherin.. See ALL friends of hers and she didn't want them to get mad at her if she popped their houses balloons! So.. She hatched a plan, she still wanted to play, because well, it looked super fun! Also she wanted to see how good of a thrower she was.. So she would toss her apple up there.. and hopefully hit a dart but miss a Balloon! It was all so very Ravenclaw of her! Hehehehe! She took her apple and took out her wand and very slowly and carefully said the spell while tracing her wand three times counterclockwise over said apple."Derivo Gravitatem, Derivo Gravitatem,Derivo Gravitatem." She set her wand down and then picked up her green fruit and looked upwards her eyes scanning for some gaps in between the balloon.. There was one!! She tossed her apple up, and it actually hit a dart! Azura was.. shocked by that.. because she literally threw like a girl! Her apple came back to her, and she managed to catch it, and then turned her eyes back up to the dart, it went straight up and hit the ceiling! Yasssssss!! One point for Azura.. |
Post 1 No balloons hit! Ooh a game! It sounded safe and fun (not to mention it didn't require much physical effort) so this was something Kitty was looking forward to. If only she could perform the spell. "Derivo GravitaTEM!" Still nothing. Kitty fought back mounting frustration. Getting frustrated was the last thing you needed when trying to solve a problem; this was something she knew well after having answered all those riddles to get into her common room. "Derivo Gravitatem!" This time she didn't put any emphasize on the final syllable. Swoosh! The apple soared into the air and flew towards the darts. "Yes!" Kitty crowed excitedly, not minding in the least that it failed to a balloon. |
1; blue Haddie had been doing really well with the timing... all she needed now was the juice behind it all. He'd had to work up to that too, so she would get it eventually! He grinned at the girl before directing his attention back to Airey, holding his hands up to catch his apple as it came back down. They were gonna pop balloons... with darts and apples? He looked up, tilting his head curiously as he stared at the colours above them. So he had to gravity his apple back up... hit a dart... and hope it hit another house's balloon. Right. Good. He could... hopefully... do that. He gave the apple a light toss, humming to himself when it didn't come back down immediately and reaching to snatch it before it got too far away. It would last for a bit, hopefully... because he wasn't sure how many times he could cast this spell effectively. It wasn't easy. But he'd make use of what he already had... the small boy stood up and looked up at the darts, nose wrinkling in concentration as he tossed the apple up once more. It shot up rather quickly, bouncing into the bottom of two darts standing closely together. One was caught by the rounded edge of the apple and shot off to one side, rather than straight up; Jaemin blinked in surprise when it hit the ceiling in a spot not concealed by balloons and disappeared immediately. Waaaaaahhh... The other glanced along the side of a blue balloon, splitting it open with a quiet 'pop'. The apple was coming down, but slowly... what was the summoning spell, again?! He couldn't remember suddenly, and the small boy stood there, drawing a blank and waiting for the round green orb to come all the way back down on its own. |
Post 2 No Balloon popped. Azura bit her lip in excitement, she had made it a much more fun game for herself, trying to hit the darts but avoid popping the balloons! It was also kind of hard as well! She liked the challenge though, anyone could pop balloons! She held her apple up, and found a dart that seemed to be on the left of some balloon, if she hit it with her fruit justttt right! she might be able to make it go straight up and miss the balloon but still manage to send her apple back to her.. Okay! She moved into a different position, and slowly aimed her apple at the dart she had picked out! She carefully tossed her green apple, upwards, using an underhanded throw in order to give it less momentum. She bit her lip as her apple sailed up up uppppp! It hit the dart and thankfully, it went between two red balloons and hit the ceiling again! Though her apple was falling down much to fast! ACK the spell must have worn off!! She darted to where it was falling and thankfully managed to catch it, and not fall! She had saved her small little trip on the way over by holding onto a desk! Phew! She didn't want to get hurt in another class again! |
1. (Not good at this. Soz.) (& No balloons. No nothing.) From his spot on the floor, Rooney looked up at Professor Flamsteed and slowly took the apple away from his mouth. ”It’snotlikeI’mgoingtouseit.” His mumble was accompanied by the beginning of the exercise description, which meant that he wasn’t really listening. Not that it MATTERED. Because he didn’t even know what he was doing SO wrong that his spell wasn’t working as well as Azura’s. Or Miss Dot’s. Or everyone elses. Why was he, the Prefect, a failure with his wand right now? How was he supposed to become Minister of Magic AND be a Wizarding Great if he couldn’t manage this advanced spell in under five tries like OTHERS? Instead he stole someone elses apple (OOC: WE STOLE AN APPLE SORRY TO WHOEVER WANTS US TO HAVE STOLE FROM THEM), and sat with his wand. Still in the corner.. Circle, and incantation. Circle and incantation. Circle and incantation. Toss of the apple… only for it to come straight back down and for him to let out a loud noise. Loud noise that was VERY much like a wail. ”Professooooooor? Can’t I go back to my dorm? I…can’t do this. This is too hard.” Could someone offer him their shoulder and just pet his hair until he felt better about not being good at this? …No? |
Post 1 - Rooney It was a game, but then... that's what Flammy-man did, right? And Dot was feeling far too mature for a game at the moment. She held out her apple in the palm of her hand and considered just practicing the spell and missing the darts on purpose. Slytherin never won anyway. And then Rooney happened. Baby whiny prefect Rooney. Ugh. It was always the big eyed ones that made her stupid. "C'mere, Roo, and we'll do it together. But you have to aim for Gryffindor or I'm going to float you up to the darts." |
Post 1-No balloons popped As Professor Flamsteed continued the lecture, Janelle updated her notes. Newton's Laws of Motion. Got it. Well she had the information anyway. And then the Professor said the magic words. Game time! Janelle was all ears, listening to the instructions given. Balloons and darts, sounded like a lot of fun. It reminded Janelle of her favorite muggle carnival game. The one where you threw darts at a bunch of balloons and popped them for prizes. Unfortunately this game was not quite as easy, especially since she had yet to master the spell. Nonetheless, Janelle tried to remain optimistic. She palmed her apple and tried to send positive vibes its way. Taking a deep breath and trying to focus, Janelle pointed her wand right above the apple. The she made one counterclockwise circle. "Derivo Gravitatem.". Two circles. "Derivo Gravitatem." Three circles. "Derivo Gravitatem." Not realizing that she had been holding her breath, Janelle exhaled. Aiming for the nearest dart, she tossed her apple upward. The good news was, she hit a dart. The bad news was the dart missed the red balloon that she had hoped to pop. The worse news |
Post 1 - Rooney Oh good, they were just going to be popping balloons. No chance that anyone would be floating up to the ceiling and then falling back down. SPOILER!!: Rooney Sad prefect buddy alert. What was Rooney doing wailing in the corner? No, he couldn't be giving up now. Penelope walked over to the corner where Rooney was. She wrapped her arms around him and stroked his hair. "It's okay to not get a new spell right away. Sometimes it just takes more practicing to get it to work, and that's nothing to be ashamed of. I know that if you really want to do this you'll keep trying until it works. You don't have to be successful at everything, especially not when you're just learning an advanced spell. No matter what, you're still amazing. Think of all the other things you've accomplished, some of which take time to practice." He was into theatre, and that certainly took several rehearsals to put on a show. Penelope continued to hug Rooney and pet his hair. "You're an amazing actor, wonderful wizard, beautiful boy, and perfect prefect. Never let yourself think that you're not good enough." Hugging and hair petting was still happening. |
2. Lookit the ladies flockin' ova hurrr Quote:
Miss Dot really was perfection personified. And she looked exquisite whilst being so. Managing a smile, he nodded and tried to gather his things from the floor. "I bet you make all the boys go on cloud nine, Miss Dot.." Quote:
More snuggling and innocent sniffling and maybe some cuddling and tapping of his cheek because...this was clearly a cause for a kiss on his cheek. Miss Dot could come give him one too if she wanted. |
Post 3. No hit Olly was comforted a bit by the fact that he was not the only one who had not yet succeeded with the spell. Not many of the balloons had been popped yet. He was satisfied that all the green ones were still there. He stared at his apple. "Come on," he said. "Will you float just this once? For me? Please?" He was pretty sure that was not going to work, no matter how nice he spoke. "Derivo Gravitatem." He made one circle. "Derivo Gravitatem." He made another circle. "Derivo Gravitatem." And he made a third circle. As soon as he had closed the third circle and finished saying the third incantation, the apple shot into the air and hit the ceiling. Okay, well that was not exactly what it was supposed to do but it was better than nothing. It would have been awesome if it could have hit one of the darts while it was up there but nope. Of course not. And the apple didn't come down either. There it was, floating as far above his reach as it could possibly be, looking like it might as well have been glued to the ceiling. He had to move a bit to get a clear shot so he could raise his wand and point it directly at the apple. "Accio apple." And it came flying back toward him. Olly managed to catch it so it didn't hit the floor again and get more bruises than it already had. Time to try again. |
Of course he had been seen. Of course. Airey Flamsteed always saw. Daxton had made it to the door, hand on the handle, and was already pulling it open when the Astronomy professor called his name out. He had two choices, essentially: keep going, and pretend he had not heard, or go back to his seat. Daxton, being Daxton, picked the third option of doing neither, and stayed right where he was, avoiding any form of decision-making. He thought about staying, really he did. Daxton stood there, hand on the door handle, looking back at Airey Flamsteed who had by now launched into his explanation of the class activity, wondering if he could maybe get some sort of alternative activity just like he had done in past Astronomy lessons. But the fact of the matter was that it was not necessarily just the magic and the classroom activity that had had him wanting to leave in the first place. That thought was only the first that had him resuming his turning of the door handle. And then the balloons appeared. Balloons. Daxton's enemy. Or, at least, one of his enemies. Balloons. Seemingly innocuous, but so, so loud. Daxton hated them, could not spend more than a few minutes in a room with a single balloon before being sent into some kind of panic, and refused to get anywhere near them if he could help it. Despite the use of balloons being such an Airey Flamsteed move, Daxton could not help but think that the man had completely lost his mind. Probably stolen. By his baby. As soon as the balloons had appeared, Daxton had scrambled for the earmuffs around his neck, clamping them down over his ears so that the sound of popping balloons would not be quite so horrendous. But he could still hear them, even with his hands pressed down over the earmuffs as well, and each muffled bang had Daxton starting in surprise and tensing right up. No. No way. Not a chance. Too loud, too loud, too loud. With the combination of the earmuffs and the classroom commotion, Daxton actually had a great opportunity to leave. Oh, did he hear Airey Flamsteed telling him he was excused and dismissed from the classroom? Actually, no, but Daxton could easily pretend he had; it was just so easy to mishear anything and everything. Reaching behind him again for the handle, Daxton finally pulled the door open and slipped out of the room, not planning on relaxing until he was far, far away from the classroom. |
1; no balloons Text Cut: Airey <3 What. Wait. No. It couldn’t be time for the main activity already… She wasn’t ready! She still couldn’t perform the spell properly and she needed to be able to perform the spell for this activity. Pouting slightly, she looked up at the balloons and darts above them and silently wondered how on earth she was going to manage this… Even when they had been practising, she didn’t think she was throwing her apple that high… Maybe she could just stand under darts and hope she could hit them with the apple… though she doubted that would then give the dart enough energy to make it to the balloons and pop them. Sigh. This was going to be a disaster. Moving so that she stood underneath one of the main darts and figured she might as well try.. Who knew, this could be the time that it worked. She held the apple in her hand and took a deep breathe. Circle while saying the incantation. Repeat threee times. Throw in the air. SIGH. Not only did it fall straight back into her waiting hand, but she missed the darts by a good foot. Great. This was going to be juuuust great. |
