Fun with Magic | Friday, First period

Class was out on the lawn again today. The muggy, hot, summer lawn. Not that Bob was bothered by the temperature.

"Well!" He clapped his hands together. "I hope you've all had a fun time and learned a bit about what magic can and can't do for you. I realise that mostly we've been using spelled objects or illusions, but for our last class, I won't be the one supplying any of it. Well, except for these."

He nodded at the box Anders had set in front of him, which this time contained ten flags - five red and five blue, each on a stake about two feet long. "You'll be in teams for this one." He mimed cutting the class in half and shoving them apart. "Red team, your leader is Anders. Blue team, yours is Elsa." The colours were completely unintentional, naturally. "The object of the game is to capture all the other team's flags. You can't outright hide your own, but you can make them difficult to find."

He grinned and nodded at Elsa and Anders, then cheerfully turned to the rest of the class. "Mind the cold!"

Didn't every summer class want to end with a massive snowball fight?

Okay... Okay, Elsa could do this. As Bob spoke, she was peeling off her gloves, and taking a deep breath, and she could do this. The trick was to make enough snow that was going to melt again after class was through, and she was pretty sure she had that part figured out.

Once Bob was finished speaking, she held her hands up into the air, and the area around her team was filled with falling snow.

...

That actually worked? It actually worked!

"It's a nice break from the heat," Elsa replied, smiling faintly. "And from the status quo. My dog appreciates it, too."

That was because he was a malamute, Elsa.

"Do you suppose so?" Elsa blushed just faintly at the thought. "I suppose there is something to be said for not sweating all summer through. It's not really a problem I've ever thought much about, I'll admit."

"I... don't." Elsa looked thoughtful for a moment. "I don't really remember a time I ever felt uncomfortably warm. Or cold. I can often feel when there's a chill, but even in the middle of winter, I only really wore winter dress more for appearances."
