or maybe not . . .

G2 and R2 filed into the classroom. Most of them happily. There was only a couple of days left, and one of them included absolutely no lessons.

But there was maybe a couple or more solemn, or grumpy faces in amongst the cheery ones.

They took their seats and awaited their instructions.
Grady took this as his que to start talking. "As you may well know, this is the last day of lessons. Now when muggles have their last day of term, the teachers usually let them do something fun, so I thought we could play a few traditional muggle games." he said grinning.

[.magnarock.]

The class murmered excitedly, anything with the word 'game' in it couldn't be bad.
"Now, I know quite a few of you like wizard chess. I myself am a pretty keen player, but muggle chess is very different. Does anyone know why?"
A hand went up and an answer was offered.
"Exaclty. The pieces are inanimate, they are not charmed."
Disbeliving murmers went round the class.
"So, muggle chess is pretty boring and we won't be playing that. We'll be playing other board games, these ones use electricity, not 'muggle magic'." The class giggled. "Not naming any names." He continued giving a pointed grin at a small group of them.
"We will be playing the following games."
He wrote on the whiteboard:
"Buckaroo
Mousetrap
Spin the bottle"

"You will get into groups around the areas where they've been set up, and then, the games will begin!"
He began numbering off the class.

[ yay!! lols, tobi and cenizo are on spin the bottle!! XD ]

Once all the students were stationed around their game, they were aware that there was a sheet of muggle parchment, otherwise known as paper, with instructions on how to play the game on it.

[.magnarock.]

Grady smiled at the class as they began to play, reffering to the instructions every move. He had asked Herschal to go through his already simplified instructions, pointing out anything he didn't understand, or wasn't crystal clear. He sighed. I'm sure he likes me. I'm sure of it! And I'm sure I've made it... fairly obvious, that I like him too. I wish I wasn't so shy about this stuff!!! Looking out of the window, he saw a seventh year flying lesson, not being taught by Herschal today. Maybe he's having a day off...

[cenizobelle]

Cenizo read the instructions quickly and passed them on to Tobi, who he was sat next to.
"Ohemgee, I can't believe Grady's letting us play spin the bottle!!!" Elsie excitedly blabbled.
"Yh." Cenizo said, looking at the ceiling. "Who wants to spin first?" he asked.

[cenizobelle]

"I will, I will!" Eva said and spun the bottle so fast that it took nearly half a minute to stop spinning.
It landed on Dhatri. Eva grinned. "Alright . . . I dare you to . . . spin around while hopping on one foot and sing the school song really loudly."

[.magnarock.]

Dhatri giggled and attempted this feat, much to the amusment of her peers.

Grady watched the children as they began to get stuck into the games. Looking up as he saw something from the corner of his eye, he saw Herschal walking past the open door.
"Excuse me for a moment class. Don't be too noisy!"
He smiled at them and left the room.
"Hey Herschal!" He called quietly, catching up with him.
"Oh, Hi Grady." Herschal smiled. "What's up?"
"Errr, nothing really. Just saying 'hi' I guess..."
Herschal looked at Grady as though trying to figure something out.
"Um, what's the look for?" He asked, noticing Herschal looking at him.

[cenizobelle]

The bottle spun again, but none of the students noticed, a rush of noise had engulfed the classroom as soon as Grady had stepped out.

Pupils were talking to the friends, shouting across the classroom so they could be heard above the rest of the hubbub. Cenizo turned to Tobi and smiled.
