Water balloons? Alice squinted at the professor, eyes flickering to her clothes. The fact that it had taken her quite a bit of time to master the spell properly wasn't reassuring at all, and for the first time in forever, she wished they'd gotten a little more practice time before trying something hands-on. But no, Professor Facial Hair was going to be throwing a balloon right at her, and if she didn't cast the charm right...

.. well. Wetness. She could avoid that. Maybe.

Stepping into the line, the sixth year twirled her wand between her fingers as she muttered the incantation to herself again and again. Arresto Momentum. Ah-REST-oh Mo-MENT-um. Arresto Momentum. Taking a splash to the face didn't seem like the most awful thing in the world, but Alice's spell work was always adequate. Always. Especially in the presence of such lovely goatees.

When her turn at the front came, she stepped up nonchalantly, face not hinting the slightest bit at the amount of focus she was using up. Was PFH going to send that balloon flying yet? Alice didn't have all day, did he- BALLOON THERE WAS A BALLOON COMING AT HER FACE STOP STOPSTOP STOPSTOP STO- "Arresto Momentum!"

Oh, look, it stopped.

Grabbing the balloon out of midair, she grinned a toothy grin at Professor Facial Hair, whom she was seriously considering chucking the balloon at, and sauntered on over back to her desk to gather her things. All in all? Decent lesson. Just as good as Knox, except plus the perks of a mustache. "Thanks for the lesson, Professor Full..." ... of gorgeousness.

".... er. Fuller."
