Remember that whole standard, boring classroom setup thing? Not strictly true.
With a quick flourish of his wand, Barlow lifted the disillusionment charm that had been placed on an unsuspecting table pushed up against the wall on one side of the classroom. On the table there were props aplenty. Playing cards, rope, metal rings, feathers, ping pong balls, cups, coins…… there were more than enough to go around.
“I spotted a few of you got your wands out ready for the lesson,” he started again, practically bouncing on the balls of his feet. “But for now, wands are banned, alright? I don’t want to see any of you cheating, that’ll take the fun out of it.” Brown eyes lingered on certain individuals. He’d temporarily confiscate wands if he absolutely had to. “Go grab yourselves a prop or two and have a play around. I want you all to have a go and see if you can perform magic the good old fashioned muggle way and while you’re doing that, think about or discuss amongst yourselves how you think Transfiguration could be used to make these tricks easier…… or more exciting!”
This was still a Transfiguration lesson after all.
Oh, great. More Muggle magic. Eni was absolutely miserable at the thought. Not all Muggle magic was this lighthearted and she just couldn't do this. She was gonna have to talk to the Professor after class. Her parents said she'd be fine here and for years it was true, but apparently not anymore if this was going to keep happening. She'd have to drop the class, which doesn't work for her desire to be a Healer. Anything else,
anything! she would do it. This wasn't something she could bring herself around to. It was just too hard.
Walking up to the table she grabbed some playing cards and started to shuffle them to make it look like she was planning to do something. She could stall. If anything a good game of solitaire wouldn't hurt.
