"It's good to be back," Professor Rae murmured to herself as she slipped into the darkened classroom. With a flick of her wand, the room was flooded with natural light from the windows and candlelight from the sconces lining the wall. A bit of dust had accumulated in her short absence, and Professor Rae took care of that in short order. Finally, the room was ready for the class to enter. Professor Rae turned to open the door, then added several basins and a stack of pillows in a pile behind her desk. You could never be too careful.

fairladyHermione 07-29-2004 12:19 AM

*Cordelia came running into the classroom, feeling extremely glad to see Professor Rae again.

"Professor Rae! How are you?"

*She asked, taking her seat.

WizardGurl4ever 07-29-2004 01:07 AM

*Vicki comes running as fast as she can*
"Hello Professor! Nice to see you again. Did you have a nice weekend?"
*As she asked, she took a seat in the middle of the class*

Wayfarer 07-29-2004 02:25 AM

"Merry Meeting, Professor Rae, I am glad to see you've gotten back okay." Andrew states as he takes a seat and perpares for class. "What's the topic for today's lesson Professor?"

"hey Professor" Feesha walks over and sees Andrew, "hey mind if I sit here?"

Wayfarer 07-29-2004 02:50 AM

"Hi, sure come on over and grab a seat. The more Gryffindors the better." Andrew says jokingly. "Glad to see you've gotten back from your trip, too."

-=He enters the classroom, sits in the back and waits for the professor to start.=-

fairladyHermione 07-29-2004 02:53 AM

"Oh wow. Theres only Gryffindors so far. Wonder where all other houses are. Anyway I'm really glad that we jumped to second place from third with only like 20 points less than Hufflepuff. We can really catch up, can't we?"

Willow_Ashebrook 07-29-2004 02:55 AM

Willow walks in and takes a seat near the front, taking out her ink, quill, and parchment.

"Hello professor"

She-Who-Is-Not-To-Be-Psycho! 07-29-2004 02:57 AM

*winks at fairladyHermione* Not such luck *smiles and seat in the first row* Hi professor^^

fairladyHermione 07-29-2004 02:59 AM

"oops. Spoke too soon."

lol

Cassirin 07-29-2004 03:09 AM

"Its good to see all of you. I'd like to remind you that there is NO chatting in here, so you can discuss your house point standings and other such nonsense somewhere else. Please get out a parchment, a quill, and your wand, and we will begin shortly."

ooc: Sorry for the disappearing act, but I had an appointment. I'm back now.

fairladyHermione 07-29-2004 03:13 AM

*Cordelia turned back around and faced the front. She took out her parchments and a quill. She wrote at the top,


Defence Against Dark Arts
Lesson 5


*Then she took out her wand.

ronslilpyro 07-29-2004 03:16 AM

sits down beside andrew, "thanx, and its good to see you too," she pulled out her piece of parchment and her quill, and wand and waited for the lesson to start

Cassirin 07-29-2004 03:23 AM

"Alright, students, today we are going to talk a bit about some simple hexes, and later in the lesson you're going to have the opportunity to practice these hexes. First, I want to know what you know about hexes? What's the difference between a hex, a jinx, and a curse? As always, only the first person to answer gets points, unless you have something significant and different to contribute."

fairladyHermione 07-29-2004 03:27 AM

Curse is a spell that cause the opponent a mis fortune.
Jinx bring the opponent a mis fortune or a bad luck for only certain period of time and a hex is similar to curse. An evil spell.

She-Who-Is-Not-To-Be-Psycho! 07-29-2004 03:31 AM

The difference between a curse a hex and a jinx is a matter of level of harm. A curse being the stronger and the jinx the weakest

ronslilpyro 07-29-2004 03:32 AM

Curses are generally used to describe a destructive spell, while hexes and jinxes are not as strong, but can still cause harm.

She-Who-Is-Not-To-Be-Psycho! 07-29-2004 03:37 AM

DADA ideologies consist in using every kind of curses, jinxes or spells only for defense purpose. Going on about our previous discussion about dark magic it is questioned if hexes, jinxes and common curses should be illegal as the Unforgivables. The Ant-hexes, for one, are described as hexes with a nice name. Ususally the damage a curse do is the highest and difficult to reverse. The hexes are, well, mostly a way to incapacitate you on a lower level, or molest you. Like the Knee-reversing Hex for one. The effect are more easy to fight. The jinx are mostly used as pratical joking.

The incantation for petrification is Petrificus Totalus, and it is considered a jinx. Hoever a more powerful petrification is considered cursing.

She-Who-Is-Not-To-Be-Psycho! 07-29-2004 03:41 AM

Oh, also, the jinx are a one-moment spells. They mostly last for the duration of the intention the spell has... if that makes any sense :huh: Well, what I am trying to say is that a jinx could, say, trip you (Trip Jinx) but then you will be able to walk again once you stand up. The Locomotor Mortis Curse, on the contrary, will leave you completely without your legs functioning for about as long as the caster wishes. The hex effect, yes, vanquish after a period of time.

Cassirin 07-29-2004 04:07 AM

"Five points to fairladyHermione and Nadia," Professor Rae said before continuing. "Nadia really hit the nail on the head by pointing out that hexes, jinxes, and curses are really just varying degrees of spells that cause harm. Of course, I won't have us try out any curses today, but I think there is some good that can be derived by you knowing some common hexes. Can you think of any reasons that I might be focusing on that today? I'm sure most of you know how I feel about using Dark Arts, and this isn't Dark magic, but I'm still encouraging you to know a spell that causes harm. Any ideas why?"

This could serve as an explanation, I am guesing. We are dealing with a lesser form of harm that we use in Defense Against Dark Arts. It is impossible to defend without offend. For example, giving you time to run away. And the hexes are a good way to defend ourselves without doing a real -serious- harm on your opponent.

ronslilpyro 07-29-2004 04:16 AM

feesha raised her hand, and tried her answer,
"Well we would benefit from knowing some common hexes, because they are ones that would be used in combat if that were the case, to either make us be at less of an advantage against our opponants. Also at most of or level, in the school, many of us would only be able to do common hexes, and therefore we should learn about them, and possibly learn how to block them."
After saying her answer, she waits, thinking I bet its all wrong

Cassirin 07-29-2004 04:25 AM

"Yes, five points each to Nadia and Feesha... those are my two main reasons as well. I think its important you all have a basic knowledge of hexes because they are an easy way to defend yourself in a crisis situation, allowing time for escape or a bigger spell, such as Incarcerous, as well as you must understand a spell before you can avoid or defend against it."

She-Who-Is-Not-To-Be-Psycho! 07-29-2004 04:31 AM

*nods, the speech about 'having knowledge' ringing in her ears... she had already heard that somewhere :shifty: *

"Not to mention mastering a spell, whatever it is, is as good as a mildly powerful curse. We can master them until the point of turning them into curses even like in the case of Petrificus Totalus - well, that's my belief."

MadEye2004 07-29-2004 08:07 AM

There's the Bat Bogey Hex...one of my favorite hexes, and Furnunculus, that gives the enemy boils, and Densaugeo, that teeth-enlargening hex. Those three are all useful in certain situations.

serenasnape 07-29-2004 11:38 AM

I'm all for learning a few new spells, as well as the counter-jinxes/spells/curses as well. It helps to know as many as possible, since you have no way of knowing what situation you could find yourself in. You definitely can't rely on only one good jinx or hex.

angelwings 07-29-2004 11:44 AM

Eric nodded in agreement. "Definitely! A few hexes/jinxes would definitely do us good. Are we going to try some of them, Professor?"

Wayfarer 07-29-2004 03:18 PM

Andrew nods he agreement with learning hexes to defend himself. He thinks hard about what jinxes and hexes he already knows and listens to others name thiers waiting his turn to response.

Gryffindor Rocks!!!

loony 4 ........ 07-29-2004 03:22 PM

i like the bad bogey hex too mad eye 2004
and petrificus totalus is also useful

ashpg_hermione 07-29-2004 05:06 PM

*Angel nods*

"Some hexes, jinxs, and curses are quite useful like the Impediment Curse that freezes the people of thing for a short while so you can escape."

demented_death_eater 07-29-2004 05:31 PM

Kay scribbles down her notes while listening to her classmates discussions. She nods her head in agreement with Professor Rae's reasoning, understanding the importance of knowing the jinxes and hexes as well as how to avoid and defend one's self from them.

Mrs. Weasley 07-29-2004 05:39 PM

Mrs. Weasley carefully writes down her notes trying not to miss a word of what is being said. She then asks, "Professor Rae, I understand that jinxes and hexes are lesser forms of curses, but are all curses considered to be Dark Magic? Or does the intentions of the wizard using the curse still determine if it is Dark Magic or not?

ronslilpyro 07-29-2004 05:46 PM

Feesha continued taking notes, writing down everything her classmated pointed out

Riiya 07-29-2004 09:31 PM

Riiya writes down her notes for her DADA class as she hears them...

Zekk 07-29-2004 10:00 PM

*Writes down notes, making sure not to leave anything that might be important out*

"We might actually try some mild hexes today?" *Zekk says in a very nervous voice*

*hears Mrs Weasley and raises her hand* Might I respond, professor?

I believe that not all Curses are illegal. As a matter of fact the using of said curses, hexes and jinxes are legal; what is illegal is the use you give to them. (Also the definition of Dark Magic falls on that description.) In each case it would be needed a trial to determine if the use was correct, self-defense, etc. There are certain restrictions for the using of those spells too: usually the curses will have more restrictions that the hexes, and the hexes more than the jinxes. There are certain areas or places where they are allowed, for example. A Blasting curse is completely legal in a Duelling Tournament, but in public places where muggles can see you wouldn't even be allowed to perform a simple lumos spell.

The ONLY spells that are not legal in ANY case are the Unforgivables, hence the name.

dobby1989 07-29-2004 10:04 PM

*Claire takes some note.*
Will we be trying any today?

Wayfarer 07-30-2004 12:18 AM

Nadia, you miss the fact that Professor Rae told us when we did the Unforgivable Curses and that is an Auror on Ministry Business can use the Unforgivalbes Curse so even they aren't illegal everytine they are used. This is why we have the Wizengamot. They decide if the use of the three Curses are in fact illegal. Harry Potter used the Crucio on Bellatrix during the historial fight at the Minstry and he wasn't punished for it. The circumstance in which it was used is all important. There are times when the Unforgivables Curse are allowed.

fairladyHermione 07-30-2004 12:29 AM

"It depends on the circumstants. All of them, I think.
But generally, they are not supposed to be used. That's why three of them were given a special named of the Unforgivable Curses. Though unfortunately, there are those who do not obey the law. Taking other people's suffering as their joy.
There would be no need to worry about all this, if the curses, hexes and jinxes does not exist, but then again, depending on the circumstances there are times you must use them.
In terms of legal matters, I think using them as your self-defence is all right but what I don't understand it, how can these 3 spells be used as self-defence?
Is that possible?"

ronslilpyro 07-30-2004 12:43 AM

Well, spells, or hexes like the Impediment Curse, as someone mentioned, can defend you by freezing someone and you can escape, As for the unforgivable curses, in some cases its kill or be killed, and although its not always the best thing to do, sometimes it can't be avoided

Thanks, fairlady, that was exactly what was answer was going to be to Andrew (?Animagus)'s response
*turns to him* But I guess you are right about some times being this excuses... I once heard that muggles was something alike too: killing is illegal, but there was this time when this man was so furious and killed a buglar but there were no pressed charges because he was driven by a 'rage blackout'. Or passional fury. I guess Harry Potter case was like that. About the Aurors, I am pretty sure they are not allowed to use the Unforgivables, but if being in a circumstances that call for it... the same a common wizard would be allowed; I don't think Auros have privilegies in that area.
Still those answers seems to contradict, because we don't know if the Unforgivables can or cannot be used in Self-Defense situations... I guess, the only spell is the Killing Curse, the only way it can serve as self-defense is when our attacker cannot be stopped by common spells. Say, if fighting an acromantula or vampire maybe... :ermsmile:

ronslilpyro 07-30-2004 01:09 AM

"good point"

Cassirin 07-30-2004 03:01 AM

ooc: Wow, I was totally going to apologize to you guys for disappearing last night when my power went out twice in a row, but after this amazing display of a lack of common sense, I'm withholding such kindness. I'm not sure what exactly you think chatting means, but basically, the fact that you guys tried to carry on teaching yourself defeats the whole purpose of us trying to RP. I"m all for class discussions, being a teacher myself, but that's not what this is... please, in the future... I'd like to leave the thread open and not have to worry about you behaving like children. This is an RP, which means you need to act in here like you would in a real classroom. Don't carry on with the lesson blithly or try to teach it yourselves. I will always come back. Now, i don't want about 10 "Sorry, Professor" posts, so let's just forget this. If you think I've been unduly harsh or you want to chat with me (and for the record, I love to chat), feel free to PM me or visit my office.

Cassirin 07-30-2004 03:18 AM

"Today we are going to be learning two very common jinxes. In fact, I think many of you probably already know them. We're going to be working on the Jelly-Legs Jinx and Tarantallegra. Now, let's see how clever you really are: any guesses on why I chose these two in particular?"

fairladyHermione 07-30-2004 03:21 AM

"Well, they both involve legs. Jelly leg jinx cause your legs to wobble uncontrobly. The jinx and its counter jinx is very simple so anyone can use them as a small prank. And Tarantellagra forces victim's legs to a crazy dance. Perhalps because Tarantellagra is a more stronger form of the jelly leg jinx?

Willow_Ashebrook 07-30-2004 03:35 AM

*Raises hand* The Jelly-Legs jinx gives you wobbly legs, whereas the Tarantallegra is a stronger spell (or hex) that makes your legs dance like crazy

Cassirin 07-30-2004 03:43 AM

Professor Rae laughed. "Yeah, fairladyHermione, I think you're close enough. They are very simple jinxes, and they wear off very quickly. Also, I'm amused by them both dealing with legs."

secret_garden32000 07-30-2004 03:51 AM

The Tarantallegra spell makes the victim's legs dance like crazy, where as the Jelly-Legs Jinx makes the victim's legs wobble. So it is safe to say that the Taratallegra spell is a stronger version of the Jelly-Legs Jinx. Also, besides the fact that they involve the legs, I think They involve the legs' muscles. Both the Jelly-Legs Jinx and Tarantallegra make the victim lose control of their legs. If we had teh time actually, we could possibly go in-depth on how the spells affect the muscles, and everything else. But that would take a long time.

*Takes a breather...*

I would also like to add that the Jelly-legs Jinx should be renamed Jelly-Legs hex not jinx, while the Tarantallegra spell should be a jinx or maybe even a curse.... But that depends on teh casters, and everything....But that is my opinion.

Cassirin 07-30-2004 04:07 AM

"That was very impressive, but I'm not sure I agree with part of your statement. The Jelly-Legs Jinx is not a simplified version of the Tarantallegra spell, as they really perform two different functions. All they have in common is that they effect the muscles of the leg, although you are correct in making the assumption that Tarantallegra is stronger and would take more power to perform."

"The Jelly-Legs Jinx, with the Gelatinus (jel-AH-tin-us), feels as if your legs have turned to gelatin. It is actually the numbing of the nerves, among some other effects to the muslces themselves, that cause this feeling. Anyone who has ever had their leg or arm go "to sleep" knows how this feels to a lesser degree. Meanwhile, the Tarantallegra causes a person to perform complicated foot movements that are very amusing to watch, but very tiring to actually perform. Very tiring," she added with a wry smile.

"Why do you think these would be good defensive tools?"

Willow_Ashebrook 07-30-2004 04:10 AM

*Raises hand again* Because if you can perform the tarantallegra on the enemy, their legs will go out of control, thereby making it harder for them to retaliate because they will have a harder time aiming for you?

Cassirin 07-30-2004 04:59 AM

"Yes, Willow, five points for Ravenclaw. You are certainly on the right track. Both spells cause a loss of motor skills that could prevent even the most advanced of Wizards from fully performing at capacity."

"Are there any questions at this time regarding either spell?"

Mrs. Weasley 07-30-2004 05:03 AM

Mrs. Weasley, sorry that her previous questions caused such a problem, raises her hand and asks the Professor, " in a defensive situation, Professor Rae, which jinx do you feel is the better to use?"

Willow_Ashebrook 07-30-2004 05:17 AM

What is the counter-spell for the jelly-legs and the tarantallegra?

Cassirin 07-30-2004 05:29 AM

Quote:

in a defensive situation, Professor Rae, which jinx do you feel is the better to use?
"That's a good question, Mrs. Weasley. I think it really depends on your level of mastery, which is why an opportunity such as this is so important. The Jelly-Legs Jinx is much simpler and could be performed by even a first year with little practice. The Tarantallegra is more difficult, but is the more powerful spell."

Quote:

What is the counter-spell for the jelly-legs and the tarantallegra?
"Both spells will wear off in time, although the tarantallegra takes a while. However, a Finite Incantatem should suffice, although it is very difficult to perform on yourself under such circumstances."

"Five points to both of you for being brave enough to ask a question. Now, let's practice a bit. Please find a partner. I'm sure you're surprised that I'm letting you cast such a spell against one another, but I'm sure you also know better than to even try it outside of the classroom unless directed or threatened. Let's practice the Jelly-Legs Jinx first. The incantation is Gelatinus (jel-AH-tin-us) and the wand movement is like a loose lightning bolt." She demonstrated the movement. "Go ahead and cast it on your partner. For the caster, try to focus on the feel of the spell, and for the 'victim,' try to accustom yourself to being wobbly and see if you can Finite Incantatem yourself. Once you are done, you may switch and cast on the opposite partner."

ronslilpyro 07-30-2004 05:37 AM

feesha gets up, "hey does anyone need a partner?"


OOC: if anyone needs a partner and they pick me, I'm going to bed right now, but i'll be on in the morning, so just keep going and pretend like I'm there

Aschere_Tonks 07-30-2004 05:56 AM

"Hey Feesha. I'll be :)"
Aschere and Feesha moved a little away from the desks and faced eachother, wands out, trying to decide who would go first.
***
They practiced the wand movement and the incantation a few times.
"Ready?" Feesha asked.
Aschere nodded.
"Gelatinus!"
The spell hit Aschere, and her legs began to feel odd... sort of wobbly and weak and rather numb. However, it hadn't completely inconvenienced her yet. So pointing her wand at her legs, and hoping she wouldn't miss - what with the way they were continuously shaking -
"Finite incantatem" the weird feeling went away and was replaced by a tingling sensation for a few seconds before returning to normal.

"My turn. You ready?"
At the signal, Aschere traced her wand in a loose zig-zag movement and said,"Gelatinus!"
The spell seemed to have the same effect on Feesha, who was able to de-jinx herself too."Guess we'll both need more practice, huh?" Aschere grinned.

Riiya 07-30-2004 11:07 AM

Riiya writes down a few more notes and then places her Quill down on the parchment. she then gets up and asks, "D-does anyone want to be my partner :) "

groovychick 07-30-2004 01:09 PM

*turns around to Riiya* I'll be your partner. Do you want to go first or should I?

Didymus 07-30-2004 01:53 PM

Didymus set down her quill after she had written down some notes.
She stood up,stretched,picked up her wand and then looked for a partner to practice with.

serenasnape 07-30-2004 02:01 PM

"Hi Didymus, I'm Serena, if you want to partner with me you can go first." Serena said... hoping she would still be able to stand because she was already clumsy on her own. :hello:

Mike_The_Mighty 07-30-2004 02:06 PM

* gets up looking for a partner. * " I need a partner anyone willing? "

meesimouseiskool 07-30-2004 02:08 PM

Mesum brightened up. "I'll be your partner!" she said excitedly, whipping out her wand. "Do you want to go first or should I?"

Mike_The_Mighty 07-30-2004 02:11 PM

" Oh ok. Oh ladies first. " * he takes out his wand. *

Didymus pointed her wand at Serena,ready to make the wand movement.
"Gelatinus!"

meesimouseiskool 07-30-2004 02:18 PM

Mesum smiled. "Okay, here I go!" She stood opposite Mike. She practiced the movement a few times, and then she said the incantation.

"Gelatinus," she said. "Okay, I think I've got it." She pointed her wand at Mike. "Gelatinus!" she yelled, swishing her wand in a lightning-bolt shape. She watched Mike start to wobble. "Yay!" she said happily. "I did it!"

OCC- I have to go but Mike, just pretend that I'm still here.

Didymus gripped a nearby table to try and steady herself as her legs began to feel like they'd lost control.
She laughed slightly at the strange feeling and pointed her wand to herself.
"Finite Incantatem!"

Didymus 07-30-2004 02:48 PM

Didymus laughed too and then smiled.
She sat down at her desk once again and wrote down on another piece of parchment some notes about the jinx.

ronslilpyro 07-30-2004 04:52 PM

OOC: thanx Aschere,i"ll pretend like your here to make up to you
After practicing the spell to each other not using they're wands they prepared to try again.

Feesha: "You ready for another go?"
Aschere:" Ready when you are"
Feesha :"okie, Gelatinus!"
Aschere's legs began to wobble and more than last time. She almost wobbled right into the side desks, but caught herelf before she made contact
Aschere: "Finite Incantatem!", okie your turn"
Feesha: ready!

Achere: Gelatinus!"
Feesha began to wobble, she wobbles around
Feesha "whoa this is weird"
She then wobbled in a desk, and fell to the floor
Between laughs she managed to stop herself, "Finite Incantatem!",
She stayed on the floor laughing, " I guess we got a little too good at it, " she continued alughing and then stood up


they both went back to their desks and wrote down how they had felt,

Aschere_Tonks 07-30-2004 05:06 PM

Aschere smiled at Feesha and made short notes on her piece of parchment.

Mesum wobbles around. "This feels so weird..." she commented as she pointed her wand to her legs. "Finite Incantatem," she says and her legs to back to normal. She takes her notebook and begins to write notes.

loony 4 ........ 07-30-2004 06:11 PM

She-Who-Is-Not-To-Be-Psycho! 07-30-2004 06:19 PM

"Yep, loony," Nadia said, lazily taking notes about the Jelly-legs Jinx. She looked around restraining a yawn to see whom she should practice with (I even confused myself). Taking her wand in her hands, she tipped her head thinking.

loony 4 ........ 07-30-2004 06:22 PM

well i need some practice too nadia...oh by the way im SABINA

She-Who-Is-Not-To-Be-Psycho! 07-30-2004 06:48 PM

*turns to her* Why, hello Sabina. Sorry, I didn't know your name. Want to be pairs? *stands to face her*

WizardGurl4ever 07-30-2004 07:17 PM

*Vicki stands up and looks around for a partner to practice the spell*
"Hmm. who shall be my partner?"

She-Who-Is-Not-To-Be-Psycho! 07-30-2004 08:03 PM

*raise hand* "Professor, might Vicky work with me and Sabina?"

"Hey Vicky, I'll be your partner. You go first...hit me with a hex." Andrew readies himself to be hit with the hex by graping two cushions and throwing them behind himself in case he falls. "Okay, I am ready."

Willow_Ashebrook 07-31-2004 02:01 AM

"Is anyone still looking for a partner?" asks Willow as she finishes taking some notes.

lightstar1154 07-31-2004 02:53 AM

I'll go with u Willow.

OCC: Just RP as if I'm here if I'm not, I don't care, just don't make me do anything stupid, I'm pretty good at dueling, lol.

Willow_Ashebrook 07-31-2004 03:02 AM

"Great! I'll go first then?" Willow draws her wand and prepares to try out the jinx. Once Lightstar is ready, Willow does the wand movement and says "Gelatinus". Almost immediately you can see Lightstars' legs begin to wobble.

Lightstar takes aim and gives the counter spell, "Finite Incantatum". She reverses Willow's jinx easily. "Your turn," says Lightstar "Are you ready?"

"Sure am," says Willow "But just remember I'm a first year, so go easy on me."

Lightstar grins, points her wand at Willow and says "Gelatinus".

Willow begins to feel her legs wobble and she can barely stay up. Finally, she takes aim and utters "Finite Incantatem". When nothing happened, she tried again "Finite Incantatem", still nothing. Finally, her legs give and she falls to the ground. "Could you help me out Lightstar?"


"Sure," giggles Lightstar "don't move now." She points her wand at Willow and says "Finite Incantatum". Almost instantly, the wobbling sensation faded away and Willow was able to stand again.

"Thanks Light!"

"Anytime Willow. Shall we go again?"

secret_garden32000 07-31-2004 04:45 AM

Anyone wanna be my partner? *looks around teh room...*

angelwings 07-31-2004 05:33 AM

Eric gave her a smile. "If you don't mind, I'll be your partner."

WizardGurl4ever 07-31-2004 05:34 AM

"Thanks Andrew :sorcerer: ! You're the best! Ok, here I go. Gelatinus!"

(ooc: sorry I had to go my sis had to go on)

*Vicki looks at him and hopes he is alright*

"Are you ok?"

Andrew is hit with Vicky's Jelly Legs spell. He feels his legs start to lose their muscle controls and he starts to fall with a thud onto the pillows. "Wow that felt weird, Vicky," Andrew says. Looking down he sees his legs bent as odd angles. He straightens them before performing "Finite Incantatum"

After giving his leg a moment or two to recovery Andrew stands up. "Alright now, ready for your turn at some Jelly Legs?" he asks Vicky. "We better switch where we were standing so you can land on the pillows."

"Say the word when you're ready" Andrew says.


OOC: Check to see if I'm on SS if not continue without me. I'll do the same next entry.

*Riiya hit Sarahs legs with the Jelly Legs Spell*

"Wow this is weird" Sarah said holding onto a table so she wouldn't fall over.

*Riiya laughed as she performed Finite Incantatum*

"Okay my turn!" Sarah smiled as she performed the Jelly Legs Jinx on Riiya who wobbled around the room and then fell over on a pile of cushions. "Finite Incantatum" Sarah said as Riija stood up cautiously.

She-Who-Is-Not-To-Be-Psycho! 07-31-2004 06:37 PM

*titles head* "OK, Sabina, I will take that as a yes. I will go first... But, ah, first, wait, I need to ask a question -

"Professor, we already practiced this spell with another name - I mean, it was the Jelly-Legs Jinx, but the incantation was Gelatina (jel-ah-TEE-na). Is there two incantations for the same spell? I remember because its pronunciation is the same than in Spanish."

*turns to Sabina* "Still I think I will try this new incantation and see if it works the same, here I go -

"Gelatinus!" Nadia shouted.

Cassirin 07-31-2004 10:43 PM

"Yes, Nadia, different Wizards occasionally will have varying ways of producing the same spell with a slightly different incantation."

ooc note: LOL... I didn't know a previous prof had done this, and they didn't save the classes back then. We'll all just have to work under the premise that the slate is wiped clean with a new professor in case I have to make anything else up that isn't specifically in canon.

"I see that many of you have mastered the Jelly-Legs Jinx. You can continue with that one or you and your partner may move on to Tarantallegra now. I shall continue to circulate among you."

She-Who-Is-Not-To-Be-Psycho! 07-31-2004 10:56 PM

ooc: uh, I thought it was you the one that said the spell was Gelatina, but if not then the notes are from the previous term before you were appointed, sorry. But I like that premise :)


"OK, professor," Nadia nodded. Then she returned her attention to Sabina. "How are you feeling? I am going to remove the spell from you now. Finite Incantatum!"

Her legs stopped wobbling. Then she said, "Can I try the Tarantallegra before and then you try the Jelly-Legs Jinx and Tarantallegra both?"

Then something clicked and she needed asking a new question. "Professor, this I never tried, what is the pronunciation for the Tarantallegra spell? With stress in the 'eh'? And the wand movement is...?"

Cassirin 08-01-2004 03:11 AM

"The pronunciation is tahr-AN-tal-LEG-ra, and you cast it with a motion much like the Jelly-Legs Jinx, but tighter." She demonstrated with a tightly done lightning-bolt shaped movement.

She-Who-Is-Not-To-Be-Psycho! 08-01-2004 03:17 AM

*nods* "I see, so they must be connected somehow, having to do with lighting-bolt wand movements, mmh... thank you, professor."

*facing Sabina* "Let's try it now; I will cast Tarantallegra on you, then you put both Tarantallegra and Gelatinus on me. Ready?

"Tarantallegra!"

Wayfarer 08-01-2004 06:56 AM

"Vicky, since this is the same spell we did before I am only going to practice the Jelly Legs Hex or Jinx, oh whatever you want call to it, once." Andrew says "You ready, there?"

"Yes, I am ready," say Vicky as she spots herself in front of the pillows.

Andrew slashed his wand through the air in a practice motion to make sure he understands the loose lighting bolt figuration. He looks at Vicky as bows. He then calls, ""Gelatinus!"

He watches as the spell hits his partner. At first it seems as if the spell didn't work she just took as step back then suddenly her legs began to wobble and she said "OH, NO!!!" as she falls backwards onto the pillows. Andrew giggled because the sight of someone's legs suddenly becoming like two wet noddles was quite funny.

"Okay, there Vicky," Andrew asked as he watched Vicky trying to stand. "Errrr....I think you need to use the Finite Incantatum Charm to end the jinx before you're going to able to stand again."


Vicky performs the charm to end the jinx. "Ready to move on, Andrew?" she asks.

"Sure thing" he says.

MadEye2004 08-01-2004 10:16 AM

"Tarantellegra!" Adam casts Tarantellegra on his partner, then uses Fnite Incantantem to counter the hex.

I think one more time couldn't hurt! *says Sarah, happy that Willow was having such a good time with this*

Tarantellegra! *she shouts, pointing her wand near willow's legs, and doing a fast lightning bolt shape*

*Willow begins to wobble uncontrollably. Sarah laughs to herself, and quickly finishes it off* Finite Incantatem!

U think we should end there? U can try on me once more if you would like!

Willow_Ashebrook 08-01-2004 08:25 PM

"Oh, yes please." said Willow. "How is the pronunciation for the cancellation spell?"

"Finite Incantatum" said Sarah.

"Thanks. Here we go!" Willow made the lightning bolt wand movement and exclaimed "Tarantallegra".

As Sarahs' legs danced uncontrollably, Willow again raised her wand at Sarah.
"Finite Incantatum!" To her amazement, Sarahs' legs began to stop dancing. "Wow! I can't believe I got it right. Thanks for your help Sarah."

"Sure thing." said Sarah, "I think we've got it now, don't you?"

"Yeah, I think we're done. Thanks for partnering with me!"

"Anytime."

Siriusly_in_Love 08-02-2004 02:41 AM

Laura looks around at the other members of the class. "Would someone like to be my partner? "
