Roleplaying as a first year.
I absolutely love this new professor!
That was Quinn's first thought about the new History of Magic professor. He was prepared for another interesting, albeit dry, histiry lesson. As luck would have it on that fine day he would be learning another useful spell. Well all spells could be useful given ingenuity and a clever mind, or at least that is what Quinn was told by his Maiméo.
That was besides the point he missed the first part of the professor's explanation. A bit of a problem, but not to worry Quinn had thought quickly and decided to observe the others do it first. It was amazing to say the least, and after a few minutes of careful observation.
"Alright let's try this bubbly spell!" He excitedly told himself. He decided to get into a relax, but solid stance holding his wand in a loose but firm manner similar to how a conductor holds his baton. Might as well try to impress the new professor. "Bella-rom Im-mer-tollum!" As soon as he spoke the words he just knew it was wrong. The sickly and malformed things that barely looked like small beans came sputtering out. A sigh came out of his mouth, and he tried it again.
"Bulla-rum Immor-talem!" Yes it sounded correct that time. He was glad he had paid such close attention to how the others said the incantations. A second letter beautiful golden bubbles started to come out and in a whimsical manner much like a conductor, conducts a symphony he moved his wand. With a bit of work he managed to form,albeit a poorly formed, version of his last name. The work was worth it to make it though now his vision was quite obscured, but he did it!
"Take that ya spell!" He triumphantly told himself.
You've learned the spell!

"You sure showed that spell, Quinn!" Alpheus grinned as he passed the young boy's desk, giving a nod. "Great effort, looking forward to seeing how well you do with future spells!"
The Professor grinned again as he gave a finger gun to the boy, before moving on.
"Bubbly spell. Hah!"
To fear the unknown is to fear progress, don't shy away from it. Embrace it and discover something new.

Bubble-Producing Charm, First Year
"So, let's get crackalackin' and fill this place with bubbles!"
Scott never knew it before, but he'd waited all his life to hear those sweet words.
They had him with his feet bouncing up and down on the stone floor, his fingers gripping excitedly after his wand and his lips blowing hair out of his eyes. If there was one spell he should know before graduating his first year, then it was darn well the Bubble-Producing Charm.
Professor Wordsworth had quite rapidly started becoming one of Scott's favourite teachers. Of course, it might not take much to be liked by the eleven-year old, but an eccentric personality as well as bubbles were sure ways of making it happen, and seeing as the professor was pacing around the room commenting on the others' work, Scott readied himself to attempt it as soon as possible too.
Before him on his desk lied a book. A History of Magic: useless for this particular lesson one would think,
but one would be wrong. Taking to his feet, Scott aimed his wand to the brick of literature before anything else (the way he'd often fantasised of doing with another, more destructive spell in mind) and thought over the notes the professor had given them.
Bullarum Immortalem..
Bullarum Immortalem..
Bullarum Immortalem..
"Bullarum Immortalem!"
Scott tensed his grip around the wand as large, round bubbles began to emerge from the tip and covered the pages of the open book before him. Upon studying them closer, he discovered to his disappointment how they were very muddy, and not at all as clear or golden as the Professor's had been. Was the problem his emphasis again? Which were the parts he should let "zing"?
Scott looked around at all the other semi-successful bubbles in the room with a sigh, and admitted calmly to himself that impatience is never the key..
But this was not the unlocking charm.
"Bullarum Immortalem! Bullarum Immortalem! Bullarum Immortalem!"
Experimenting with emphasis after emphasis, Scott studied every bubble as if it were is last. One was oblong, the other very small.. the next would have green tint to it followed by one that was nearly invisible.
Even if he would sometimes discover a near perfect, shimmering and golden sphere disappear down behind another, they came with unpredictable intervals between them that Scott was too excited to calculate.
He was producing bubbles! Many, many bubbles..
You've learned the spell!
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ♦ ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
"You're doing well, Scott!" Alpheus said as he ducked and weaved through the numerous bubbles the young boy was sending through the air. "I can see some gold ones in there, which means you're closing in on perfecting it... keep trying, keep practicing, and don't give up!"
The Professor grinned and poked one of the bubbles with a finger, sending it sailing across the room to mix with the mass of bubbles in the area.
"I love this!"
The biggest thing you can say is 'elephant'

Bubble-Producing Charm, First Year
Who knew there was a spell for making bubbles? Amanda thought to herself as she walked into History of Magic class. Such a spell seemed silly and useless to Amanda, but she had decided to hold of her judgement until she actually tried the spell. She sat down in her desk and directed her attention towards Professor Wordsworth. He seemed excited and peppy, but then again, when was he not? The professor proceeded to tell the class about the spell. At the word “crackalakin’,” Amanda burst into silent giggles. There was just something about that word that made it funny.
Amanda pulled out her wand as Professor Wordsworth released them to practice. “Bullarum Immortalem!” she said enthusiastically. Bubbles came streaming out of her wand tip. Amanda was ecstatic until she noticed that their was something wrong with the bubbles. They were all long and funky-looking. Oh well, Amanda thought. I’m not always going to get it right the first time. So she tried a second time. “Bullarum Immortalem!” More bubbles came out of her wand, but this time they were tinted with a sickly green color. Amanda wrinkled her nose. It really wasn’t a very nice color. Third time’s the charm. “Bullarum Immortalem!” Amanda said again, really letting the words zing like Professor Wordsworth had instructed. This time beautiful, golden-tinted bubbles came flowing from her wand. Amanda smiled. I guess a charm for making bubbles isn’t really that silly after all.

"Excellent, excellent, Amanda!" Alpheus said as he ducked and weaved through the numerous bubbles, grinning widely. "Keep up the great work and don't stop practicing!"
The Professor gave a thumbs up and continued around the class...

Bubble-Producing Charm, First Year
WizKids? Gravissime?
Cel had nothing against the term "WizKids." She had no grievance against the professor insofar; in fact, she easily noted his enthusiasm and apt ability to motivate other kids, the ones with less than perfect alacrity. No, he was a good teacher, and she liked the class very much, but... WizKids.
All right, it wasn't so bad-- just a label and a nice, casual one at that. It just sounded... unprofessional. It made her want to cringe but giggle, and there was a time and place to giggle-- during an interesting History of Magic class was not one of them. But the professor was also, alas, not the subject at hand, and neither were his speaking habits-- no, right now, she needed only to pay attention with all due focus, for it was a spell he lectured about at the moment, and she would never waste a chance to learn one.
Bullarum Immortalem-- it was quite strange, quite amusing that Cel could gather the meaning and usually the use of each spell purely off its incantation from their nearly exclusively Latin etymology. Peculiar, it was, even though the same thought occurred to her several times already, almost every time she happened upon the chance to learn a new spell. The young Ravenclaw watched, keeping her mouth shut firmly as usual, as other students shouted out answers to the professor's unfinished sentence. Decoration was not quite what she would have thought of, and she would much prefer silver and teal to gold if she was given the choice, yet it was an idea nonetheless, and one that she would not have thought of-- a good thing, too, for hearing one's own contemplations from others' mouths did not help one to learn.
Either way, it was time to practice now, and the girl flicked her wrist to encourage the chestnut wood wand to slip out from her robe sleeves. A few extra shakes were taken for the wand to fully escape from the fabric-- the sleeve of the shirt she wore under the school uniform, a hoodie of a dark cyan color, was fitted closely to her thin arms-- before Cel folded her delicate fingers around the carved handle of the wand.
Bull-a-rum Immor-talem, it was-- she repeated the words, her Latin accent fitting into place like puzzle pieces snapping together. The words, bubbles immortal, rolled off her tongue easily, like quicksilver. Gold bubbles, shimmering and round, like the ones that the professor had demonstrated, were the desired result. She turned the long wand, etched in design, over in her hand. A true Ravenclaw, she'd never had trouble in her studies-- she had the motivation, the skill, and the interest to do well in all of her subjects. Spellwork had been no exception: Her wand gestures were sometimes a bit off-- the wand had, at first, felt a little awkward in her hand, though she had mostly gotten used to it throughout the progress of her first year at Hogwarts-- but the pronunciation of most incantations came quite naturally to her, more likely than not and perhaps even certainly because of her familiarity with the Dead Language, Latin, and she usually didn't have too much trouble with focusing, as her interest could be aimed at exclusively the topic at hand if necessary. With a school such as this one, it was necessary quite, quite often.
Necessary now, in fact, as she raised her wand, drawing the focus she needed to utilize in the casting of the spell. There was a moment of hesitation before one spins the roulette, the fraction of time before one does something that might be right, might be wrong, yet did not know which would be the outcome, no matter the odds. The uncertainty, the unsureness would creep in then, making it difficult to continue, making it so much easier to stall, until the person at hand would realize that either he or she would be right or wrong-- and that wavering would not improve the results.
Inhale.
"Bullarum Immortalem," the Ravenclaw chanted, the tip of her wand pointing straight ahead, and then a stream of gold began its steady march out from her wand. Shiny, gold, round, iridescent-- they looked relatively similar, if not identical, to the Professor's.
The girl blinked once, quickly before taking a hesitant step back in surprise-- it wasn't common for her, for anyone in her experience, to succeed on his or her first try. Perhaps it was because this particular charm had no real wand gesture? Another few flicks, as she'd seen Professor Wordsworth indoctrinate another student, and the stream of gilded bubbles dissipated, only air in its wake. Cel did not only grin in satisfaction or raise her eyebrows in surprise as most might-- no, when she learned something, she would do so even more. She'd always want more, and she knew this as she stared in wonder at the shimmering reflection in the surface of the opaque, round structures.
"Professor-- Professor. Is there anywhere else that I might be able to look further into the history of this particular spell... or spells in general? A book, perhaps?" The young girl tapped one of the bubbles with her index finger as she spoke, watching as it floated slowly among the others. A thought occurred to her as she gazed with her head cocked to one side at the wall of bubbles before her, and she raised her wand again, hoping her aim was all right and that nobody stood too close to the wall.
"Flipendo!"
Scattered, the bubbles were now, as her wand delivered a blow to the packed wall. The light coming in from the windows illuminated each shimmer, each sparkle, as the bubbles ricocheted against the wall she stood most near to, flying out of place. A genuine smile-- only the success of gaining new wisdom could make her smile like that.
And that was why she liked History of Magic.

"A great effort, Celynne!" Alpheus said as he watched the bubbles floating, before listening to the girl's question. "I do have some further reading for those interested, let me see..."
The Professor walked over to one of the numerous shelves, ran his fingers along a row of books, before he found the one he was after. Picking it out of the space, he walked back to Celynne's desk and put it down with a grin.
"This should help, try page three-hundred and seven... I look forward to providing any further knowledge for that keen, sponge-like mind."

Bubble-Producing Charm, First Year
Crackalakin? It was a word she had never heard before neither did she knew what it meant. It was probably another one of the funky proffesor’s slang.
Bubbles. It was what she played with when she was a kid. Now it wasn’t very interesting for the eleven year old seeing orbs of soap pop into thin air. She didn’t see how the spell would be any use of besides just entertainment for children. There was only a slightest of chances that a bubble might enter someone’s eye and cause a distraction in duels.
What was that? Bullar- bullarum Immortalem. The incantation was a mouthful, why did a spell for creating bubbles have such a long incantation?
“Bullarum Immortalem. Bullarum Immortalem.” she repeated to ensure she got it right. She waved her wand around as she repeated it once more. Dark coloured bubbles, as if they were formed of diluted ink, were produced from the wand. But instead of the bubbles going straight from the wand, the orbs went backwards as if there was a strong wind blowing against in her direction. She fanned them with her hand, popping the orbs as she did.
Had the spell just backfire? Clearly. She had not known that even such a spell might backfire, but from what she learnt from the charms lesson, almost all spells could be casted wrongly without the concentration. Her mind must have been thinking about something else besides the spell.
She took a deep breath and tried again. “Bull-ar-um immortalem,” she breathed as the top of her wand danced around in the air. This time, a trail of gorgeous golden bubbles emitted from the tip. A couple were enough, she didn’t want to add her bubbles to the ones already flooding the room. She tilted the wand down and the production of bubbles stopped. It wasn’t a very useful spell, but at least she learnt a new one to add on to her list.

"Amazing efforts, Aurelia!" Alpheus said with a nod and a thumbs up to the young girl, watching as she stopped short of casting more bubbles. "Don't be afraid to have some fun. Nothing wrong with that!"
The Professor grinned and poked one of the bubbles, before moving on with a chuckle...

Bubble-Producing Charm, First Year
Here we were again. The girl had taken quite the liking to the blonde professor. He was quirky and spunky in his own special way. She had never met anyone quite like him. The man acted more as a friend than a teacher in her opinon. Unlike the wonderful professor Henley, Professor Alf didn't have as much of a parental aura to him. And somehow, not very suprisingly, Professor Wordsworth had become her favorite professor. For now, at least.
Bubbles! Who didn't love bubbles? They were something that brought delight to children like herself. Bubbles always reminded her of when her friends would play at the playground and host a game of "pop the bubbles" every now and then. The girl was childish, as a child should be. She didn't want to be mature just yet. I mean, who has fun being mature and dealing with problems?
Bullarum Immortalem. Such a long thing to say for just a bunch of clear floaty happy balls. And apparently the bubbles could actually be useful. Who would've thought that the soap water magic would help someone if used correctly? The long lasting bubbles could obsure someone's vision or maybe even act as a distraction. Spells like "flipendo" would knockback the orbs so you could move them further.
Following the Profesor's demonstration, Frost picked up her wand from the desk, holding it with a firm grip. Holding the wand right in fron of her chest, she cleared her thoat. "Bellarum Immortalem." Nothing happened. Not even some misshapen bubbles. So she tried again. "Bellarum Immortalem." Still nothing.
"Bullarum Immortalem!" The ravenclaw girl squeaked. A beautiful stream of perfect, golden bubbles streamed from the tip of the other girl's wand. Bullarum? Bulla instaed of Bella? Maybe that was is. It never hurt to try.
The ginger pushed her glasses back up. Lifting her chin a little higher, the girl tried again, but this time with the proper incantation. "Bullarum Immortalem." Akward green bubbles streamed from her wand. Oddly deformed, and quite funny looking. Frost giggled at the funny looking bubbles. "Oh, no," She grinned. "That wasn't it at all."
She stared at the bubbless the class had added up together. They were shiny, golden and all perfecly uniform in shape. The girl pointed her wand away from them, not wanting them to be upset if her bubbles turned out weird again. "Bullarum Immortalem!" A nice stream of golden-yellow orbs floated along in the direction she faced. Frost laughed and twirled the wand around her body, making the stream of bubbles incase her. She stopped the stream and looked up at the blonde professor.
Poking one of the bubbles, she asked the man, "The 'Immortalem' part of the spell kind of sounds like 'Immortal'. Is that what makes the bubbles be un-poppable, sir?" The girl raised her eyebrows, curious to see if that was why. "And, how often do you think this charm would be used in a duel, sir?" I mean, he was the "Duel Master Man". He must have some idea. Maybe if Frost was ever in a duel, she would know how to properly use it to her advantage.
You've learned the spell!
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ♦ ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
"It is, indeed, Frost!" Alpheus said as nodded, smiling. "The etymology of Immortalem comes from the original Latin Immortalis or Immortale, which effectively means everlasting, eternal, perpetual, and so on. Very astute!"
The Professor raised an eyebrow at the second question.
"As for duelling, the best method is by flooding an area with the bubbles, obscuring vision and making it difficult to aim at the opponent. Simple, effective."

Bubble-Producing Charm, First Year
She had enjoyed eating breakfast, which had been a loud affair, as some students dreaded the trip to the eccentric professor’s classroom, while some couldn’t wait to learn about history, or whatever they were going to do in the classroom of a man who dressed with a cape. He reminded Eris of one of her comic book characters, and she couldn’t decide whether that was good or bad yet. Maybe a mix of both. Eris slid into her desk in his classroom, towards the back of the class with a few people she knew.
When he mentioned something fun, Eris beamed at the professor, watching him pull a wand out of his cool pocket holster thing. She waited until it was time to start the spell, zoning out as ravenclaws complained, or did something else. She said the spell with the professor, sounding out the words in the typical fashion. Most students didn’t practice their words with the professor, but Eris had learned that you always had to pronounce the words right, or else the chance of failing the spell and embarrassing yourself in front of the whole class. That would be embarrassing, and had happened far too many times in the course of Eris’s school career.
"Bullarum immortalem!" Eris finally screamed out when it was the class’s turn to practice the spell, but in her haste to cast the spell, Eris forgot to use any incantation, or to slow down the pronunciation, as no bubbles came out of her wand. Scowling, Eris retraced her steps, face flushing in shame as she realized that she had just rushed and gotten the spell wrong.
Eris didn’t dwell on her sadness over failing the spell, although she was not proud of herself. She remembered what the professor had said and made sure to emphasize the correct parts of the word this time. "Bulla-rum Imm-ortalem!" she cried yet again, and this time, bubbles began appearing from the tip of her wand. They floated all around her, as Eris pointed her wand around in circles, watching the bubbles circle around her. She didn’t know exactly how to pop the bubbles, but Eris grinned, letting the cloud of bubbles obscure her vision. Maybe the professor would come, but for now, Eris wanted to see if she could fly on a cloud of bubbles.

The History of Magic professor had enthusiasm, Dymphna had to give him that. It was almost... too much excitement? Everyone else seemed to be enjoying themselves though so as not to be a spoil sport, she smiled politely and followed along with the conversation. What was the Bubble-Producing Charm? That was an easy one but she didn't see much of a use for it outside of entertainment purposes.
"Bull-a-rum immor-talem," she repeated after him then again just for good measure. It was always best to make sure the pronunciation was correct before trying to cast. She didn't want to end up failing miserably in front of her peers. Gold tinted bubbles? Now that got her interest. Who had ever heard of such a thing and using bubbles in duelling as well?
Curious and now excited to see all of her golden bubbles floating about, she took in a breath and gently waved her wand. "Bullarum Immortalem." Almost immediately, they shot out, tailing her wand movements and she glanced at the other students progress. She hadn't been this fascinated over bubbles since her toddler years. "Impressive, Professor. I never would've thought to use this particular spell in duelling. It would certainly be a surprise to spring on an opponent."
Professor Edit: Congratulations, you've learned the Bubble-Producing Charm!

Bubble-Producing Charm, First Year
Alan was sitting in the Classroom with the fancy shade glasses he had gotten from the professor and had to push them back on his nose every few seconds as they threatened to slip from his nose and drop to the ground or on his table. Or the table he was sitting in front of, not his own, he was kinda only lending it for the purpose of studying and... he should stop rambling. He listened to the professors instructions and smiled brightly. This spell sounded fun! He could make a bubble bath out of every ordinary bathtub or pool now- if that wasn't amazing then he doesn't know what amazing is.
Like the professor instructed he waved his wand, pronouncing the charm just like the professor had instructed. "bull-a-rum immor-talem"
Alan soon found himself rewarded by a steady stream of bubbles that seemed to escape the wand tip as he could drag his wand in every direction, while the stream of bubbles followed the movement. Soon the first year found himself being surrounded by bubbles that flew around in the Classroom. It reminded him a bit of the bubble shows that could sometimes be seen when walking in cities.

Professor Edit: Congratulations, you've learned the Bubble-Producing Charm!Another day, another history class. If it had been any other class first thing in the morning, Max might show up sleepy-eyed and still blinking the dreams from his mind, but history always put excitement in him. There was almost a skip to his step as he went to his seat, carefully sliding into the wooden chair near the front so he'd be able to catch every word said. Oftentimes he didn't even need to takes notes (though of course he did) because everything learned in the class was something he listened to with rapt attention.
Today was no different, and his spine went straight as his hands curled under the desk in glee, barely restrained eagerness on his face at the thought of learning a spell that could be used in duels. It was unfortunately lacking on the historical side of things - the conception of who had made it and for what purpose was unclear - but that only meant it was left to imagination. Max was certain he'd read somewhere that it had once been used as a decorative spell because the bubbles were hard to pop, so the uses seemed numerous and as different from each other as could be.
Listening closely to the incantation, he mouthed it over and over as the professor continued on with the lecture, only the rum and talem at a barely audible level since those were the parts that needed the most emphasis. Nodding, he removed one of his hands from under the desk to scribble the phonetic spelling of the incantation on a piece of parchment to ensure he got it right. After seeing the demonstration and paying close attention to the last words, he took out his wand and waited for a moment. Watching the others and their stances helped, and he couldn't help the way his mouth twitched in amusement as golden baubles filled the room. He flicked one near him and almost laughed aloud at how dense it was; yeah, this could certainly be used as decorum.
Facing one of the stone walls, he tipped his wand at it and said the incantation strongly just for practice, his voice full of confidence after watching everyone else. Nothing happened but he hadn't put any concentration in it, and when he finally decided to actually do the spell he let the rest of the background noise fade out so he could concentrate on exactly what he wanted to do. Make bubbles; the wall was the enemy. It was like some dark wizard in history (Gellert Grindelwald - yeah, that'd be cool) and he was an old, grizzled Auror distracting the evil man from his fellow Aurors so they could capture him.
"Bullarum Immortalem!" he nearly shouted, tipping his wand in the same fashion as Professor Wordsworth and maintaining it at the same angle instead of waving it. In an instant, a jet stream of golden bubbles poured out of the tip and struck Grindelwald, causing the man to stumble back as the rest of the Aurors used the binding curse and surrounded him, but he had the Elder wand and so without his vision he might lash out and - !
No, it wasn't nearly as dramatic as that. The bubbles harmlessly struck the wall and bounced off, joining the rest of them around the room as Max cut the stream off with a dip of his wand.
