Default Main Activity
That's Rough Buddy | Be the Flower | Moon & Stars

Kennedy kept a watchful eye as the students set off to practice. There were a few who sought out a strategy like in Jude’s case. That was smart. Try different options and scratch out whatever did not work for him. There were also those who seemed a bit more nervous. He observed Brandon doing well until it was time to fly downward. Ah, that could be a bit nerve wracking, especially for those scared of heights. Going up wasn’t the problem, it was the coming down part.

“You’re doing great, mister Fox,” Kennedy said, mounting his own broom and making his way over to the younger boy. “Just say the word and I’ll guide you lower,” he offered quietly as to not put the kid on blast.

His watch went off again, alerting him it was time for the main activity. The offer still stood for Brandon should he choose to accept it. In the meantime Kennedy flew towards the front of the pitch.

“Freeze!” he called. Once he had everyone’s attention, he continued. “Now that we’ve warmed up and practiced expanding our limits, it is time for the main event.” Waving his wand at the chest. The buzzing sound came back to life and--

CRACK!

The chest burst, the chains falling in pieces to the ground. From it exploded dozens of brilliant Golden Snitches. They fluttered in a friendly dance around the students, and then up and up they went, buzzing several yards above the students’ heads. Invisible walls prohibited them from flying away from the practice pitch.

“Darn, there they go,” Kennedy said, feigning concern. “As you can see, your professor has done a poor job of keeping these Golden Snitches contained. Now I need your help in capturing them.” Were they ready? “We are going to be using the Freezing and Levitation Charm in order to complete this mission. Listen up. This will test your abilities.” Despite the charms seeming simple, and something they’ve already done in Charms Class, especially for the older years, it wouldn’t be as easy with a moving object such as a Golden Snitch.

“Fourth through seventh years will use the Freezing Charm on the Golden Snitches. Once the Snitches have been frozen, first through third years will use the Levitation Charm in order to bring them back to the chest. No hands should touch any of the Golden Snitches. Today we are only depending on our brooms and wands.” Kennedy glanced up at the Golden Snitches. What beautiful chaos. Let’s see how well the students do.

“Remember to be aware of your surroundings and where your wand is targeting. If there are no further questions…GO!Kennedy started by pointing his wand at the clouds of Snitches and cast the Freezing Charm. “Immobulus!” The first set of fluttering wings froze and fell to its doom towards the pitch ground.


OOC: Hellooooo! This is the main and last activity for the lesson. You'll have approximately two days to complete this activity. In order to get full credit remember to post your character using the charm's incantation and then the result of whether they got their target or not (approximately three Golden Snitches). It's okay if your character struggles. It's all part of the fun.

The instructions:
- First through third years will use the Levitation Charm (Wingardium Leviosa) to collect the fallen Golden Snitches by levitating into the chest.
- Fourth through seventh years will use the Freezing Charm (Immobulus) to freeze said Golden Snitches in the sky.
- If your character is one of the younglings, you don’t have to wait for an older student to post about freezing a Golden Snitch.You can go ahead and play that someone else already had. Kennedy will also be there freezing Golden Snitches from time to time.

If you have any questions don’t hesitate to PM me. Happy RPing! <3
