Dont be distracted, the familiar feeling of a jellyfish swallowing you, a short gesture with both hands at once again, I didnt even have time to understand what exactly I did, but for some reason I knew that if necessary I could repeat it. Sharp shards of glass and ice, scraps of apples and, for some reason, paper hovered over Applestones table, as if in a freeze-frame. Some kind of note or letter.
This shocked and offended expression will probably give me nightmares. Goggled eyes, a glance slanted towards the bridge of the nose the fragments hovered literally an inch and a half from Applestone's face. And he, it seems, could not decide now what should be more surprised: that he was still intact or that he had made such a mistake.
Congratulations, Mr. Obley, you have a worthy competitor, the professor appeared next to me, I felt him behind my shoulder a feeling of strength and for some reason security. Let go of the shield, Miss Blair. Follow the group while I deal with the effects of Mr. Applestone's brain softening. A hand flashed in front of my face, taking a piece of paper out of the air. Hm. You may be pleased to know that this worthy young man lost control of the experience because he was trying to impress you, Miss Blair, with his poetic talents.
Oh yes, I couldnt resist. I was amazed. Right into the liver.
She lowered her trembling hands only realized that until now she had unconsciously, on a reflex triggered by Charlotte, been holding the shield. And I fell in love with Norwood. He now looked like a conductor or a surgeon. The fragments collided with a quiet ringing sound, gathering into a prickly sparkling ball, similar to a curled up hedgehog. Scraps of apples and scraps of paper were strung onto hedgehog needles, and then it all simply evaporated. All that remained was Applestone's stunned face although no, no longer stunned, but frightened. I realized how it could end.
If anyone else wants to hit the object of their dreams, please do not stifle your impulses. Alchemy lab is the perfect time. I will be happy to personally escort you to Mrs. Maskelynes office for your documents and with no less happiness will say goodbye to you forever. Mr. Applestone, gather your things and leave the classroom. Tomorrow after classes, Im waiting for you at the department with all the knowledge you have. We will decide your fate thoughtfully and comprehensively.
