Fun with Magic | Friday, First period

Class today was to meet in the Danger Shop; when they got there, they'd find themselves in a bright little gazebo on a sunny day, though there was an odd fog concealing the landscape

"Welcome!" Bob grinned. "We could probably have done this outside, but...well, the safety protocols seemed like a good idea." And then he'd gotten a bit creative.

"Today, you've got a different sort of equipment." Which Anders had probably noticed was suspiciously light as he carried the box from Portalocity. Bob waved at the box, inside of which were brightly coloured life-vests. "Everybody put one on, and then your task for the day is to race to the other gazebo exactly like this one on the far side of the room. Doctor Lecter kindly was nagged into donated chocolates for you all to share once you arrive. Winner gets the best choices," he pointed out.

"Winner won't necessarily be the fastest, though" he said, grinning. "You've also got to find your way there." He gestured and the fog lifted, to show a hedge wall several stories high. "The hedges form a maze. You'll have to think to get through it. Oh," he added as if in afterthought, "and it's three-dimensional. So you'll want to work on your flying."

He smiled at them all. "Any questions?"

Lottie picked up a bright neon green vest and put it on. And promptly started doing little somersaults in the air. She pulled out her phone to get a selfie and promptly dropped it, only to end up swimming awkwardly through the air downwards to try and get it back.

Still. FLYING!

So Lottie knew allllll about regular mazes and how to get through them. Always turn in the same direction. It was elementary mystery-kid knowledge.

She hadn't really thought it through for a three dimensional maze you flew through, though. You couldn't always turn up, could you?

I have the "I'M FLYYYYYYYYYYYING!" song from Peter Pan stuck in my head now and it's ALL YOUR FAULT.

Neon pink! NEON PINK!

Alluka beelined for a pink one and slipped it on. Then she bounced into the air and, as she did a spin, just started giggling.

This was the best!

"Lottie, Lottie, Lottie! Hi!" Alluka said cheerfully, flailing her way after Lottie. Alluka was not super great at flying, but she was enthusiastic about it! "Can I come with you?"

Pleaaaase?

Anders was more interested in flying than in TA'ing, truth be told, but he was around. And probably up for another race.

Anders put on a neon blue vest, and then followed Lotie's lead and did little somersaults. he couldn't hold back his laughs of delight as he floated away.

Dipper grabbed a neon blue color and did his best to figure out how it worked.

He spent a good deal of the time hanging upside down before he got the hang of it.

So Dipper was taking his usual analytical approach and was going to diagram each turn he took so he could work out a virtual map of the maze.

It wasn't going well.

"Sure!" Lottie said. She was always up for enthusiastic company. Alluka reminded her a little of Little Claire -- only probably not that into setting things on fire. "D'ya happen to know anythin about the THIRD DIMENSION?"

The way she said this, one might think that it was something mysterious and impenetrable, rather than just "up" and "down".

Alluka windmilled to a stop in front of Lottie and blinked.

"Um." She thought hard about that. "It's really big?"

It SOUNDED like it should be really big! That had to be it!

"Anders!" Why yes, that was a happy sibling flying towards him. "Hi, hi!"

And if he made no move to stop her or get away, she was going to do her level best to hug him when she got close enough.
