DADA for Muggles, final class [Wednesday]

It had taken Remus and Sirius slightly less time this go around to program the Danger Room to do what they wanted (Sirius contended it was because it had threatened the computer with a good hexing, but that was debatable), but for a final examination, the professors felt that a bit of effort should be expended.

"Welcome to your exam," Sirius said with a slightly fiendish smile, extending his hand to encompass the scene before them: a large grassy area (complete with a different castle in the background. They missed Hogwarts a bit, so hush) covered in a variety of obstacles. "Hopefully you remember what you have learned. You will encounter a series of practical exercises in order for us to determine how prepared you are to face the Dark Arts in every day life. Good luck. If you get too hexed to continue, Professor Lupin and I will step in, but I don't think that will be entirely necessary."

Priestly knew from cabbages. For instance, that they didn't tend to have teeth. He was sure to do just fine on this one.

Didi found a pencil and poked at the cabbages until she got one that didn't bite. Problem solved.

Dinah had the dragonhide gloves on immediately, but was using her TK to poke at the vegetables, waiting for one of them to look back at her. Yeeeee.

Alex's day kept getting better because he didn't move his hand away from a chomping cabbage quick enough and ended up getting bitten.

Cursing like a sailor, he guessed right on the next try and grabbed a stupid cabbage.

Yeah, Effy wasn't about to put her hand in there until she was damn sure what she was poking at.

Until then, a boot-covered foot was getting used to nudge at the cabbages until one of them moved, or didn't bare its teeth.

Diana missed the gloves they had when they did this in class and ended up gingerly poking at them with a finger.

Jenny got out a pencil to poke the cabbages. Once she found one that didn't bite the pencil, she zapped the rest to preserve her fingers, then darted in to grab the normal one before the toothy ones recovered.

Francine also knew from cabbages, but that didn't mean she was skipping the dragonhide gloves when she reached for the one she was pretty sure didn't have teeth.

Sam was the dork with the gloves and a pencil, poking the cabbages to find one that didn't bite.

Right. Momoko had on gloves, sure, but she was still pondering the pile. She was fairly sure she could tell a real cabbage from a living one - except that real cabbage was alive, too. Or was it dead? Not the chomping ones, the ones that you chomped. Not that any of that helped. "Hmm. Maybe it's that one?"

*CHOMP*

"Ah! Ok. No." She shook the little bugger off and frowned. "Right! If you don't speak up, all of you are going in the pot!" When that didn't get a reaction, she went back to picking up ones that looked likely. Hopefully there wasn't a time limit?

Jack put on the gloves and stared at the cabbage-y-things.

He tried one. It bit. He flailed. The Chinese chomper went airborne and landed back in the box. He glared at it, and tried another.


The fifth time, he got a cabbage. He still flailed.
