Charms Newt

"Very good Mr.Poe!" he said. He wondered if this kid was going to answer every question he asked. "Alright, so you know the charm...you know what it does!" he said grinning. "Who can perform the spell? Anyone?" he asked them all. He pulled out a cage, "I'm going to take a page out of Gildroy Lockhearts books...No pun intended. And I am going to release this cage of pixies..." he said. "We're running short on time and I'm sure you all can perform the spell." he added. "Your task, is to immobulize as many pixies as possible and transform them into a human replica of...Elivs Presly.." he added grinning. "Anyone who can do this succesfully will earn their house 50 points. The person with the most pixies, gets 20 points! Now! BEGIN!" he said opening the cage.

(How many pixies are there?)
Arthur looked at the crazy pixies roaming around. Those blue critters really annoyed him. He picked a group of three that were joking around and aimed his wand at them. ''Immobulus'', he fired the spell and froze the three pixies. He pulled them to his desk non-verbally and placed them in a line. ''Now, Elvis Presley you say? The King of Rock'n'Roll! Homorphus'', he fired the spell at the first and it transformed into Elvis. He did that with the next two and all he managed to produce is two more Elvises. ''This is ridiculous. I have three Elvises on my desk.'', he said and conjured three towels for them all.

''Now, professor, before they all start calling me daddy, is this enough or do you need more''', he asked.

(They are thin Elvises XD)

OoC:there are well around 50 and I find it very unrealistic that you have five on your desk so if you don't mind, can you please edit to 1 or 2.

Mariana jumped from her chair covering her head as she woke up from her nap and saw the pixies all around the place. She covered her head while she had time to draw her wand. "What was the spell again?Imobulus!!" she said freezing a couple of pixies trying to remember the spell she read in Lockhart's book about Pixies. "I think i read something about Pixie Pixie Pasternomy..." she said trying to remember.

Amelia was unsurprised when Arthur provided the answers to the questions Professor Gibbs posed to the class, easily fulfilling the role of class know-it-all. Having already answered one of the questions, Amelia had remained quiet during the rest of the questioning period, taking notes but not speaking out. She did not prefer to make a scene of herself in the classroom, nor anywhere else for that matter, but Arthur seemed hardly to mind drawing attention to himself, demonstrating this once more as he performed the homorphus charm effectively in demonstration for the class.

Amelia probably should have been impressed by this feat, but her dislike for the Gryffindor boy kept her from celebrating his personal successes. It wasn’t that she considered him competition – Amelia was far more likely to compete against herself when it came to academics than to compare herself to others – but rather that he seemed to have a completely different mentality than she did about showing off his talents and abilities. His pompous attitude and inability to keep thoughts to himself annoyed Amelia immensely, so much so that she disliked him without ever having spoken to him for longer than a few seconds.

Upon receiving the instructions about the pixies, Amelia pulled her wand from the waistband of her skirt and held it tightly in her hand. Although the professor had worded the task such that it was a competition between the students in the class, Amelia instead chose to set a personal challenge, hoping for three Elvises (a muggle figure she knew only because of her serious obsession with music of all kinds). It would be a feat to get that many, Amelia knew, and she was probably overestimating her abilities, but it had always been her policy to challenge herself beyond her expectations. That way, if she fell short, at least she had still accomplished something.

The pixies were flying all around her and the other students, causing some of her peers to duck for cover, others flinging spells haphazardly around the room. Amelia took time to focus on one pixie in particular, one who seemed to have a wounded wing and thus would be easier to hit with a spell. Just as the creature flew past her forehead, Amelia pointed her wand upward and immobilized it with the flick of her wand, the blue thing falling to her feet.

Deciding to complete the task in parts, Amelia began looking for another pixie which she would be capable of hitting with an immobulus charm. All the slow ones seemed to have been taken by now, and thus the faster pixies were darting among the heads of the few students who were still on the lookout for prey. Knowing she had to act quickly, Amelia spotted one that was flying in front of Arthur and flung an immobilizing charm toward the creature, but at the last moment, the creature whizzed out of the line of her spell, leaving the charm directed right at Arthur’s chest.

Oh no! Amelia thought, both hands flying up to her mouth as she watched the beam of blue light streaming right for her classmate, tempted to close her eyes but unable to look away.

((Since I am not allowed to god-mod the spell hitting him, this situation will only be complete after Arthur posts whether or not the spell hits him.))

Arthur was playing with one of his Elvises. His game consisted of him poking him in the arm and watching his reaction, which was numb. He was not particularly fond of such games, but he had nothing better to do. After a few ''rounds'' he looked around to see how the others were doing.

The did not seem to have much trouble, but things weren't easy. He looked at Mari and saw that she was having problems with a spell. He then turned to Amelia, the other person of interest in this classroom. He did not care much about the others and their efficiency.

She managed to immobilize one, which resulted in Arthur turning back to his Elvises. But, he saw a pixie above him. He reached for his wand in order to capture it, but he felt a blow. Something hit him. He wanted to turn around, but he was unable to. He was not dead, but immobilized. A bloody idiot managed to miss the pixie. He stood there, immobilized, waiting for the person who hit him to liberate him from the spell.

Christabelle walked into the classroom holding her schedule in her hand. She was winded from running down the hall to the class having had it mixed up with a different one. "I'm sorry professor." she said realizing she had walked into a classroom containing a bunch of pixies. Oh this is just lovely. she thought looking around as she made her way to her professor. "I got this class time mixed up with another one. I've been so scatter brained lately I promise it won't happen again." she explained hoping the professor would understand.

Just as she had known it would – but wished it wouldn’t – Amelia’s immobilization charm hit Arthur square in the chest. She could see the immediate effect of the spell as Arthur’s skin warped for just a moment before becoming completely still, leaving him stuck with his hand halfway to his pocket and his eyes glued to the pixie that had been Amelia’s intended target.

Although she was mortified at having missed so badly, for a brief second she, for once, was able to find some small scrap of humor in her mistake. If there was any one person in this class she wouldn’t mind immobilizing – if only to keep him from prattling on incessantly - it would be Arthur Severus Poe. Sure, she would have preferred much more to not have hit any of her peers, for it was likely to get her into a host of trouble if the Professor had spotted the mishap, but there was at least some bright side to the situation.

The smile which had tugged at the corners of her lips did not last long, though, and Amelia moved to stand out of Arthur’s field of vision, taking her immobilized pixie with her, before quickly shooting the counterspell at his back and watching as the initial freezing charm loosened its hold on her classmate. In the hopes of not being caught, Amelia busied herself with performing the second spell on the pixie she had already caught – this seemed the safer route, now – but she was so distracted that when she attempted to transform the blasted creature into a human replication of Elvis Presley, she instead somehow managed to get the little creature to start singing “Blue Suede Shoes”, thrusting its hips like the iconic 50’s singer.

At least I got the colour right… Amelia thought to herself, shaking her head and watching the “performance” as she contemplated what she had done wrong in her haste to distract and detach herself from having immobilized Arthur.

(OOC: Sorry I have been getting a little confused with my classes, one minute we are in the middle of a class and then it stops and then there is another and it stops...I will make sure to just check every other day or so.)

Belle ran in right behind Christy, cursing herself mentally for being late. Andrian had decided they would move into the mansion and had been so exusted from the moving and wedding that she had slept right in past her alarm.

She skidded to a hault when she saw the pixies and her eyebrows rose a little in surprise. It wasn't everyday you ran into class only to be surrounded by flying and frozen pixies. "Good morning Professor, I'm sorry I am so late. I promise it will not happen again."

Alice listened to Gibbs's talk and when she heard, that they must practise, she took her wand and said, pointing to her two pixies: "Immobulus!" Then, when it was done, she said: "Homorphus." She looked at pixies, there was two Elvis Presleys on her desk.
