Maddie had been quite busy practicing the whole Locomotor Planet THING when Professor Flamsteed called for everyone's attention. By THAT point she'd managed to move her little orb in a semi-direct path, though like the best people, it still seemed to have its own opinions on where it should be going. Not much she could do about that now considering they were moving on.
The second year wandered up and collected her gear, wondering what they would be doing that'd require them to protect their heads and chests. She slipped the armor on first before donning the helmet like a crown and fastening it securely under her chin. All the while doing her best to follow the star man who'd gone off on another one of his long and drawn out rants. The man could talk, there was NO denying that. His words weren't as interesting as all the desks moving, though. Could he teach her THAT? Because she wouldn't mind doing some redecorating in her dorm room.
The little makeshift solar system was neat. Also the fact that they'd be trying to destroy other planets. She liked a challenge, Maddie did. She also liked destruction when it had a purpose and it seemed the purpose of this was destroy the other houses' planets. She could do that, little budding mastermind that she was.
After directions were given, Maddie focused on her orb. She'd gotten it to move before but now was a different story. This was a game and she wanted to win. Eyes narrowed, she said clearly, "Locomotor Planet!" And move it did, slowly but STILL.
As the brunette navigated the little ball in front of her, she kept watch on her targets. One that stood out was a particularly slow moving red planet and she figured she might as well give the whole flinging thing a shot using that as her focus. So after taking a little breath, Maddie gave a firm flick of her wand and watched as her little orb went hurling towards one of the gray objects, the one directly in line with the red planet she was aiming for.
Come onnnn, asteroid.
