"Those are excellent suggestions, and lots of them relate to what we'll be doing in class today. House points to everyone who shared a suggestion!" she said, lowering the chalk and dropping her wand to her side. With the second list done, Lexi turned back to the class. A few people had either asked a question or made a point that she wanted to address. "Go ahead and add that second list to your notes. You'll need it for homework, too." "You're exactly right about that. Gamp's Law of Elemental Transfiguration tells us that we can't produce food out of thin air. We can, however, move food, change food, or use other objects to help us with our food," she explained. Merlin, all that talk about food was making Lexi weaker by the moment---she wanted cupcakes! "Magic can most definitely make our lives easier, which leads me to...those," she said, using her wand to point out a box of aprons near the front of the classroom. Walking over to the box, Lexi pulled out a plain white apron. She directed her wand towards the apron, swished it the right, then swished it in a circular motion to the left. "Colorus Revolvo Pink!" she said.
...and that explained how the professor's apron had turned that pretty pink color. "Now this lesson isn't about the Coloring Changing Charm, but if you'd like, you may use it to change your white apron to the color of your choice," she said. ...and yes, she'd just said your apron, which meant she wanted the students to wear aprons for this lesson, as well. "Come on up and find an apron in your size. If you like the white color, then so be it, but you can take a few minutes to change its color, too. Come on now...you, too, boys," she added, waving her hand in the general direction of the box. "Remember to do your swishes in flicks in all the right directions, too. You'll likely end up with some atrocious, snot-colored getup otherwise," she said. Sigh...unless of course someone preferred a green and brown mixture. Eww. "Swish to the right, then swish to the left in a circular motion. The incantation is Colorus Revolvo, plus the name of the color you choose." OOC: I'm going to stop here (for a little while) to allow some people from other timezones to catch up. In the meantime, you may roleplay your character getting an apron and working with the Color Changing Charm. People. Were. Too. Fast.
That, and the fact Gold was too interested in Professor Carlton's cute, pink apron. "Professor!" She raised a hand. "Do you think it would be okay, if I add a few other points, to my list?" She eyed her notes. "I can think of a couple. Like, magic can help us heal, and provide quick medical aid and --" She paused. "-- and, in the kitchen, it can help us repair stuff we accidentally damage, or break." Because some people tend to break stuff, all the time. Especially dishes and goblets.
WAIT A SECOND! What was Professor!Charms saying? That they could get an apron, each? Gold beamed at the Professor's apron again, as they were told they could all get aprons for their own, and switch their colours and stuff. That appealed to Gold. She knew, of course, what colour she wanted for her apron. No doubt, there.
Once she had caaaarefully picked one out, she headed back to her desk and held it up, in the light, to see. It was nothing special, a plain apron, white in colour. Well, not for much longer. "Colorus Revolvo the!Cutest!Pink!Ever," she chuckled, before giving the charm a proper shot - swish to the right, swish to the left in a circular motion - and watching her apron turn all warm and fuzzy and cute!pink. Therrrrre.
Now it looked like hers.
She slipped into it, and then tapped her wand at the side, to print the words "Gold Laksh" on the side, in red-and-gold lettering. Nothing permanent, of course. One flick of a wand, and the wording would no longer be there. Because, you know, the apron didn't belong to her.
Not permanently. |
