The Great Hall is empty, as there is no reason for anyone to be in the Hall at this time of day. The tables have been lined up in the center of the Hall, dividing it into two equal parts. Cluttered on every centimeter of available table surface, various dishes leftover from the past week's meals crowd together. From last night's pudding to a slightly odoriferous sauerkraut from lunch a week ago, the food is a vast variety of dishes in just as varied condition.

"We're going to have a food fight, but not exactly the fun sort that you may be used to. The point of this exercise is to keep yourself as clean as possible, using any of the spells we discussed as well as any spells you have learned during your career at Hogwarts. Within reason, of course... no theoretical spells you have never actually practiced and no spells that will purposefully cause harm to anyone else. I will remove you if you are hurting your peers. It is up to you whether you choose to play offensively or defensively... perhaps your best way to keep clean is to knock out the other players?"

He gestured into the room. "Please line up on either side of the table and we will begin at my mark."

ooc: As always, please do not RP the outcome of your casting/throwing. You are free to use any spell that there is a reasonable expectation your character knows, but we will definitely cry foul if you get way ooc. Please clearly indicate who you are aiming for.

Gahhh. Brittany had walked into the great hall to learn that they were going to have ... a food fight

. Yeah she definetly wasnt expecting this. She looked around waiting for her classmates to arrive

TeafortheSoul · 10-09-2010, 08:50 PM

"Caaaan we use cleaning spells, sir? Or vanishing spells or anything like that?" Jimmy asked.

Heheh.

Fun class!

Erindipity · 10-09-2010, 08:53 PM

Lexi lined up beside Jimmy and began to look around for anything she could use as a shield of sorts. Leaning over she asked, "Hey you wanna team up? I am sure we can take out whomever is across from us before they get us dirty." She then noticed a tray that would be great for using as a shield.

"As I say... any spell within your arsenal. We're looking at ways to use non-traditional spells in a new way, but if you know how to get the food off you once you're dirty, then go for it. I can promise you won't be able to rub out the scent of that sauerkraut with a simple cleaning spell," Tate laughed.

"In fact, everything in the room is really fair game... because I've removed everything except the tables and the food. Use the space."

lilithpotter · 10-09-2010, 08:57 PM

Nessa stood againist the wall. A food fight. She noticed Brittany on the other wall and headed toward her
"Hey Brit. How are you?" she said

Magical Soul · 10-09-2010, 09:00 PM

Oh no. Not the perfect class for Louisa that was for sure. She dragged herself into the Hall behind her classmates and stood still listenning carefully to the headmaster. Good fight, eh? If only she could use her skills from that food fight she had

Never mind. She straightened herself up and tried to recall some of the unharmful spells. She'd play defensively of course!

*Lottiepot* · 10-09-2010, 09:00 PM

Food fight?

They were having a food fight? But...But...There was things on the table Trixie would never touch, not with her veganism. The Blonde looked a little bit nervously in the middle of the table. She was going to have to try really REALLY hard not to get hit with any of this icky food.

MEEP!

The Blonde stood on the right side of the tables, by herself considering none of her friends had actually turned up yet.

She was playing defensively, she was NOT getting dirty. Nope. Not. At. All. She probably hard a bigger chance of getting dirty if she was playing offensively, be too hard concerntrating on hitting others. Then again, circumstances might change as the game progressed. Knowing her she'd probably get too lost in it.

Salander bounded into the hall, listening to the Headmaster's instructions. "Food fight! Oh yeah!" the lad grinned as he took a spot next to Jimmy. But what he saw on the table got him to wince a little "Spoiled food? Nasty!" he chuckled. As much as he hated to get hit with it, he found it more enjoyable to hurl it at someone else.

Roselyn · 10-09-2010, 09:07 PM

As Evelyn followed behind, she leaned against the door frame to the Great Hall as they finally made it there, crossing her arms and staring at all the food. Oh, Merlin what was that smell?

A food fight!? WHAT!?

No, this was not like the maze they had the time before. This was worse. Much worse. This was spoiled and disgusting food that SMELLED and she had to dodge it! Not little paint bubbles that washed out easily. She needed to put her bag safely somewhere. Like, outside.

Maybe she could stay outside too.

...

Lindzers · 10-09-2010, 09:09 PM

AWESOME!

Melanie had never actually been in a food fight before. And they always looked so fun on TV! Magic could only make one funner, riiiiight?

Smiling to herself, Melanie lined up on the side of one of the tables next to a plate of particularly nasty looking mashed potatoes. She wrinkled her nose, repulsed by the smell the food. The girl didn't need an incentive to stay clean. She did NOT want that food on her robes.

~~...It may be fun to get it on other people's robes though.~~

"Suure. Maybe we should assemble a team." Heh. He grinned at Lexi.

~~News Team Assemble!~~

So someone safe behind a shield, say a giant tray or something, could be the one to do things like.... clean their teammates? Man he wouldn't mind a pretty girl toweling him off. Who wanted that duty? Huh? Huh?

"and we're trying to avoid the spells from that list?"

Questions. Man. He had them.

Jimmy gave Salander the 'sup nod. Very manly

Oh hello. Target. Jimmy grinned over at a certain Slytherin girl.

AlwaysSnapesGirl · 10-09-2010, 09:12 PM

A food fight? What a waste of food! It should be eaten, not thrown at people!

Then again...that week old food was definitely not meant for eating. So...maybe a food fight wasn't such a bad idea after all

Vashti took a spot between Louisa and Trixie and listened to the Headmaster as he explained what to do and answered some students' questions, but at the same time, she tried to run through all the spells she could think of that she could do. She'd obviously need them if she wanted to stay clean and make the others dirty. But as she did so, a thought occurred to her and she raised her hand to ask about it.

"Sir, are we supposed to use only spells to throw the food and keep clean? Or can we also pick up the stuff with our hands and throw it?" She thought she might already know the answer, but it was best to ask anyway, just in case. It was crucial information, at least for her.

Throwing it would be loads of fun.

*Holmesian Feline* · 10-09-2010, 09:13 PM

Simon had followed the professor at the rest of the class to the Great Hall awaiting whatever the practical part of the lesson was to be. A food fight...of old food, he thought to himself once again glad he had done as told and worn old clothes. Not that he intended to get that dirty for this was another test of his charm skills.

The Gryffindor boy listened to the Headmaster's speech and moved off to one side of the Hall to be ready for when they were given the permission. His wand in his hand yet straight at his side in wait.

EXACTLY! "Yes, a team indeed. What about that guy?" she said as she nodded toward the Slythie (Salander). She was beginning to make a battle plan in her mind. "We will need a few people behind shields and someone to clean the other... one or two to counter attack," she said quietly as she made shifty eyes around at the others. Oh yes... Lexi was out for blood... Um... victory. She wanted victory. Yes.

Cassirin · 10-09-2010, 09:14 PM

"Nah," Tate shrugged. "Those spells are now fair game. This is challenging enough without that added pressure."

He raised his hand to begin, but a thought occurred to him. "Anyone with a strange food allergy is excused from participation, but for everyone else, you DO get points for actively participating in this part. No cowering under the table the whole time! And now... BEGIN."

lilithpotter · 10-09-2010, 09:21 PM

That was her cue Nessa grabbed her wand "Wingarduim leviosa" she levitated some of the macaroni that looked like it was cooked billions of years ago and tossed it. She was aiming for James the fifth year ravenclaw. Just becasue...

Magical Soul · 10-09-2010, 09:22 PM

The word 'BEGIN' rang all over the Hall making Louisa panic by the sound of it. She ran to the closest wall she could get to and rested her back on it while holding her wand in her hand tightly. She was ready to 'Protego' anything flying comes from anywhere

*Lottiepot* · 10-09-2010, 09:22 PM

Oh My Jeez

O_O

Trix was actually kinda scared. Could Veganism count as a strange food allergy? Err...Er.. As long as no one DARED to throw anything like that at her then she was happy. NO being a coward now. Nu uh. True she was never gonna be a Gryffindor with all this braveness and whatever but she was going to participate. Mhmm!

They were beginning? The Blonde shot a nervous glance over at Vashti whom was stood by and then eyed the table and then those stood on the other side. She didn't know what to do.

"Wingardium Leviosa" Yeah nice one Trix. Just levitate some random pile of mashed potato why don't you? Because THAT'S gonna do a lot on your behalf. What now??

*Flail*

*Gulp*

SilverTiger · 10-09-2010, 09:23 PM

Walking into the Great Hall behind the others, Grayson's eyes had lit up at the idea of a food fight, and then dimmed slightly as she saw it was all old stinky food. Good thing she'd chosen to leave her bag behind in the classroom. Looping around, continuing to listen to Headmaster Tate, she flipped her wand out of it's holster before coming up behind Salander, Jimmy and Lexi. "Whose going to strike first?," she said randomly, before darting forward to pick up a stinky pudding from the table. Weapon chosen, wand ready, time to figure out where to strike.

"Protego!," she cast as she saw macaroni flying their way, aiming the shield to block Jimmy as well as herself. She was sort of out in the open, after all, from grabbing the pudding.

Salander turned his head at the pretty Gryffie. "I am Salander m'lady" the lad replied giving her a small bow "And I would be most honored to be part of your team"
After all, no one would want to suffer his his fast ball pouched egg heh.

That's the cue! "Wingardium Leviosa!" the lad on a plate of unhealthily green spaghetti and quickly spun it ...... towards Evelyn.

Oops.

hermygirl · 10-09-2010, 09:27 PM

Nia glanced round the room, trying to get a feel for what is where. And who else was there. Going from last term's cake fight in the Common Room, she wanted Ellie, JD, Vashti and Jacob all on her side. Definitely Ellie. She was the one that meant Nia had icing in her hair for at least a week.

So. Plan. Hmm. Protection. That's what she needed to start. "Protego," she muttered, deciding the basic shield would function perfectly well whilst she was thinking. She did NOT wanted to be covered in food. The icing at the end of last term was enough, thank you very much. And that had been fresh, yummy icing. That had been such an awesome celebration.

Aaaand back to concentrating. Must. Not. Get. Dirty.

"Yeah. He's cool." So far Salander had met with Jim's approval. "Sounds like a plan." But before he could go into it with her, things started.

And... set.

Jim grinned at Grayson.

"Thanks." His wand was in his hand and now it was time to play some himself.

He levitated a bowl of rancid peas and FLUNG them at a Gryffindor on the other side of the table. He'd been tempted to go for Evelyn himself but... he wasn't mean.

And she didn't seem the rancid peas type. *Grin*

Throwing it would be loads of fun.

"You can throw it with your hands, I suppose, but it's probably more fun to try to use spells. At some point, we will all descend into magic madness and this place will be a mess," Tate laughed, easily side-stepping food as it splashed against the floor.

Out of the corner of his eye, he sess Grayson raise the shield charm on herself and Jimmy. "That takes care of them... Wingardium Leviosa!" he said pointing at the macaroni and cheese and swinging it at Nessa.
