Well, that didn't take long.
"Yeah, cool. Thanks," Sierra said, walking over and joining the group of three. Now four, since she was joining. She looked away long enough to see Hollingberry and the Gryffindor Quidditch captain win the race. Of course they won. Hollingberry always had to win everything, didn't she?
"Ugh," she mumbled.
"Well, I don't think we have much time to discuss what type of cart we should make. It looks like winners are already being announced," she said. They might not have much time left.
"I think we should just start building the shape of a cart and see what we end up with." As long as it got them across the finish line and scored them the points, she didn't care what they ended up with.

"And I think we're supposed to use the sticking and unsticking charms, right?" Adhaero, Avexis, Adhaero, Avexis. Must. Memorize.
"So maybe something like..." Ariana trailed off, imagining a wagon with five pieces of wood stuck together, then perhaps two axles through the sides and two wheels on either? But how to get the axles into the slabs of wood...
It took Ariana a moment to remember that neither Nerida nor Butterfly could understand her thoughts, so she accio'ed five large pieces of wood, two axles, and four wheels over to where she and her two partners were standing, and then she began to attempt to make the wagon.
She lined up two wood slabs and pulled out her wand. "Adhaero," she said, and then tugged on the two pieces. Firmly stuck together. Perfect. Oh wait, there were other people. She should probably explain.
"I was thinking just a simple topless box, then punch four holes in it and add wheels on axles. Any objections or suggestions?" Wait, since when was Ariana in charge? Since she was the oldest, she guessed. Shrug, whatever.
Sierra watched the slightly younger girl work out a plan then stick two boards together.
"Whatever works is good with me," she said.
"We at least need a floor, four wheels, two walls, and a handle." As long as they had the required parts, the look of the wagon didn't matter to her.
"So those pieces," she said, pointing to the two pieces the fourth year (aaetha) had fixed together, are what part?"
"What if we make that the floor?" she suggested, pointing to the pieces the girl had stuck together. "Then this could be the left wall." Sierra picked up two boards and lined them up side by side.
"Adhaero!" she said, swishing her wand. The two pieces stuck together. Then she took them and lined them up just next to the piece she'd suggested be used as the floor. If this didn't work, they could always unstick it.
"Adhaero!" she said again, and stuck her piece to Ariana's piece.
OOC: I'm not sure what part you were building there, but I went ahead and assumed it was the floor. So I just had her add the left wall. Maybe the next to post can add the right wall? Then we'd have floor, left wall, and right wall. If this worked, the cart now looks like this: L Quote:

Surely Liesel wouldn't mind, right?
"Oh," Sierra said, turning to face a girl she remembered from the Quidditch team.
"Sorry, but I just joined a group of three, and we're only supposed to work in groups of two to four." The girl had someone else to work with though, so Sierra assumed she'd be good without them.
