Anyway, Kiz was reaaaaaaaaaaaally hoping that Moose would go first with the spell. Maybe if he did it wrong too then she wouldn't feel as terribly about the inevitable disaster that hers would be. Not that she wanted him to mess up, but sometimes it helped when you didn't have to feel so alone in making mistakes. But... when he admitted that he didn't want to go first either, Kizzy deflated a little bit. Oh no.

She did have an idea though. It's called the art of distraction and what you do is avoid trying the spell at all costs and ask the Professor questions until time for the activity runs out so that you don't get into any trouble for it. Except. Just as she was about to suggest this, she paused. Usually she could just practice the spell later and it would be fine. But now that her wand kept getting taken away.... Um. "Okay... I'll go." It was a tough decision because she didn't want to look silly, but she didn't want to waste her chance at finally using her wand. So. Ih-Mo-byoo-luhs. She could do that. "You should pose so that you'll look cool when I freeze you." If she managed to freeze him.

She wanted him to do what?! Pose? Seriously? He wasn't even sure he had any kind of gusto, moxie, zeal. Whatever. Usually striking a pose required some kind of spirit behind it. You needed to feel. There had to be emotion behind what pose you were going to express yourself with.

He ran through the incantation in his head once more trying his best to get it down while debating whether or not he should do this posing business.

....

....

Yeah he definitely needed more time. "Fine. I'll strike a pose if that means you'll go first." It was fair deal enough for William. He just needed to find the right motivation. Let's see? Immanent death if they disobeyed? Yeah...no motivation. Just do something. He placed is one hand on his hip with his elbow stick out. Spread his legs apart just a bit and outstretched his other arm pointing up and out with his wand sticking out from it. He tilted his head back a bit as though to inspect his outstretched arm. "There. Go ahead and freeze me." He looked like a Hero which was not something he would ever be, but it should suffice for a pose.
