Does this one have a time limit that it can stop or slow things down for?" he asked, finally grabbing hold of a small box of Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans from the bottom of his school bag and setting it on his desk. "Otherwise, couldn't people switch out Impedimenta for Arresto Momentum in duels and stuff? Because this one seems better and makes the other one a bit redundant. Especially if you can do non-verbal spells." Because of the incantations, though they were both a bit long, just one syllable separating them in length.
Right then. RIGHT.
Now to start throwing sweets in the air. "Yes, they are quite similar, the only main difference being the Impediment Jinx only lasts 10 seconds. And, being a Jinx, it is idea for practicing duels. If you stopped your opponent from moving indefinitely... well, that would be a boring duel." As for a time limit on Arresto Momentum... "If you wish, you could add a time limit to the charm, but that is a bit more advanced." So they wouldn't be learning that just yet. "Or, alternatively, you could cast Arresto Momentum on an object and simply cast Finite Incantatem once you are done." A simple alternative. SPOILER!!: Zahraaaaaawr Quote:

He .... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Zahra wasn't mad. She'd been hit by worse. Lots worse. Plus, she LIKED when Professors played with her. She stood up and CHUCKED her last eraser at Professor Fuller. "THINK FAST PROFESSOR. ARRESTO MOMENTUM IT!" HAHAHA! Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, good, she wasn't mad. He was hopin- HELLO ERASER. "Arresto Momentum!" Professor Fuller stopped the eraser just in time for it to stop two inches from his face. That was a close one. "Ever thought about playing quidditch?" he asked. That girl had quite an arm. He flung the eraser back at the girl. "Your turn!"
And then he headed back up to the front of the class, because it was time to continue.

Pierson clapped his hands twice to get the attention of the students. "Alright everyone, time to move on! Since you all should have mastered this skill, we are going to put it to the ultimate test right now. I want everyone to line up, single file, down the middle of the classroom. Make sure you are at least 15 feet away from my desk," he ordered, pointing to the isle in between the desks in the middle of the room.
As the students lined up, he went behind his desk and pulled out a giant bucket of colored blobs. Also known as WATER BALLOONS. He took one in each hand and showed the class. "These are balloons. Full of water. And I will throw them at your face. Your job is to stop them with the charm you just learned before it explodes on your puberty-infested noses, alright?" He grinned. Encouragingly. This would be fun, right? "Once you're successful, you are dismissed from class!" "Alright, first person up, step forward!" And when the did, Pierson got out his wand and pointed it at the balloon while he looked at the student. "Oppugno!" he cast and balloon shot forward, hurtling towards the first student in line.
..... "Next!" OOC INSTRUCTIONS: This ONE post is for ALL of you. I'm not going to post for every single student because there's a LOT of you. What you need to do is RP your student coming up to the front of the line (you don't have to be nice and take turns) and pretend Professor Fuller shot a water balloon at them, just like I just RPed up there, and then use Arresto Momentum to STOP the balloon from hitting their face. Feel free to make your character get hit with the balloon, but if you do, make sure you make them get back in line and try again, because I'll only give you points if they get it right! If this doesn't make sense, try to see what your classmates are doing. If this still doesn't make sense, PM me and I'll try to explain it better. Note: You only need to make one post, but you can make more (don't go crazy). I will close the thread in approximately 32 hours.
Note: Please do not continue working on the first task, your time is up. Please move on to the second task now.
