Kurumi continued to look around the pride of lions gathered in their corner of the room wondering what all they were going to do when...

Kurumi just FROZE and slowly turned her head towards the professor. Wait...that was HER name! Not that she hadn't volunteered herself, she just hadn't expected that the professor would be the one to call on her to do it
even if Kurumi's house elf connections made her a very proficient cleaner. Still, hearing her name called out did cause her to lose focus on the broom that had been bouncing next to her and it fell to the floor with a loud THUD.
"
Y-Yes, professor," Kurumi said offering the woman a polite bow before turning her attention to her lioness partner and giving her a quick thumbs up. Kurumi then scrambled after the broom and picked it up before fetching another one. Merlin....TWO brooms... At least this wasn't a Flying lesson, right? Kurumi probably would have broken out in rashes by now if they were being told they had to straddle two brooms while flying around.
Professor Vindictus better not be able to read minds...from where ever he was on campus...
Refocusing, Kurumi leaned both brooms against the wall and pondered being able to charm them both at once or not. She usually worked with only one object at a time, unless they were cookies, so this could be a little tricky but all she needed to do was focus, right? Erm....hopefully. Wand at the ready, Kurumi pointed it at the two brooms and took a deep breath, trying to visualize them both springing to life
and hopefully dancing in rhythm to the same tune as earlier. "
Liberum Arbitrium Brooms," Kurumi instructed, swishing her wand and following with a clockwise twirl. She made sure to place special emphasis on the 's' part of the word, hoping that that and her extra focus would be enough to charm both brooms at once.
Both brooms began to shake violently and Kurumi held her breath while she waited and hoped for the spell to take hold - which it did. Thank Merlin. Both brooms stood straight up, bouncing in place
do do do before they began to slowly sweep the surrounding area. Kurumi, wand still pointing at the two brooms, began to back up at a slow hop, and the two brooms followed suit as then continued to sweep and bring dust along with them.
Do do do dodododo do do do...
