The Bubble Producing Charm
The owl he had received from Professor Risa had sparked his curiosity. Andrew assumed that the note granted him special permission, meaning he wouldn’t be obliged to wear his regular school uniform to Professor Risa’s extra lesson. Heeding the warning, Andrew had shown up to class in a pair of jeans, sneakers, and a gray T-shirt (although he had contemplated about bringing along a pair of swim trunks, in case things might get sudsier and wetter than he anticipated). He was expecting to be drenched in soap and water, the scale of a carwash or waterpark, which popped into his mind when he had first gotten the owl. But after listening to Professor Risa’s instruction about the Bubble Producing Charm, Andrew was both relieved yet disappointed that there wasn’t more soap involved. Or so he thought. . .
Andrew fell in line with the other Slytherins, waiting and watching as the other students in front of him casted the charm. He observed what was occurring ahead; taking down mental notes, studying the other students’ techniques, scrutinizing each of their mistakes and successes as he neared the front of the line. By the time it was his turn, Andrew was fairly confident in his approach of what he ought to do in order for him to cast the charm successfully. Not to mention it was a simple charm, one without a wand movement, so that already cut the amount of work by half. Performing this spell should be as easy as pie.
Facing his partner, Andrew pulled out his wand, readying his stance as he pointed the tip of his wand straight at Yancy Clearwater, aiming to release a barrage of bubbles directly at his target. “Bullarum immortalum!” “(BUL-la-rum im-MOR-ta-lem)” Andrew uttered firmly. He waited with bated breath, hoping for a stream of gold-tinted bubbles to appear.

The Bubble Producing Charm
Xayvier sat looking at everyone else as the tried the bubble charm. He wasn't confident about producing the charm at all at first. But as he watched everyone's successes and failures, he grew to steadily feel better. He was still surprised that they were learning charms in the History classroom.Then, it was his turn. Xayvier took a deep breath as he held his wand. This would be one of the first charms he would learn hopefully. He extended the wand and felt his wand connect to him as if it were a natural part of him and had grown with him like his bones had. Slowly, he felt like magic being drawn out by the wand in his hand.
"Bullarum Immortalum." Xayvier said and he felt his magic just barely make it to the edge of the wand. But it fizzled out for the first time. Xayvier frowned and seethed. "No, I will make this happen." Xayvier growled as the others in his head all joined him in focussing the power through it. "Bullarum Immortalum!" They all cried, his voice bleeding through them all. He felt his magic burst through, his will forcing it through his arm and through his wand with all of willpower of his four personalities. They just wanted the bubbles.

The Bubble Producing Charm
To learn a practical spell in History class was quite interesting. Further more, Millie point-blank hated History. It was boring and stupid. Or, in her eyes. With much of a digress, she knew it was also important to not repeat the past. Though, it was more than likely that history would be repeated. Multiple times.
As she followed her fellow first-years into the classroom, Millie looked up at four older years. If she messed up now, she was certain the older years, and her peers would make fun of her. So her job was to not do that. Practice in her mind, imagine a success, keep your brain strong, and have an even stronger ego. Stay safe.
After the professor went over everything, Millie reminded herself to keep repeating the words. Bullarum Immortalum. They seemed to hold a type of power over the twelve-year-old. Like a type of magic refusing to be seen, only by those worthy enough to see it.
Then it was time to practice. Test your abilities. Time to shine. People were shouting the spell all around her, so Millie pointed her wand ahead, and went over the phrase in her mind. ‘BUL-la-rum im-MOR-ta-lem’.
"Bullarum Immortalum!" She cried, waving her wand in a specific manner, every bit of her body wishing, begging for the golden bubbles to erupt from the tip of her wand. Hopefully.

The Bubble Producing Charm
Fumiko's inner child screamed and jumped behind her gracefully small smile when she found out what they were learning today.
To be fair, she enjoyed History of Magic class everyday. Of course there is the regular reason of ' not repeating history ' but for some reason she enjoyed the way they learned of old people, places and news that happened before. Perhaps she just liked to remember things a few dead wizard did a few hundred years ago. Or she just felt guilty to forget what happened before her time that shaped the world she knew of today.
Plus, if she were dead and did so many things for the future only for no one remember her, she'd be very sad.
But today she had something even better than that. Bubbles. Fumiko always had an adoration for bubbles since she was a kid and now knowing she didn't need to go to the nearest toy store to buy them, she was more than ecstatic.
After the teacher finished explaining, Fumiko was probably the fastest one to whip out her wand.
She'd been practicing the incantation in her head since the teacher said it so without further ado :
" BUL-la-ram-im-MOR-ta-lam "
...
that sounded off..
she looked at the other students, already seeing bubbles of all shapes and sizes filing the usually dull classroom.
Fighting the urge to drop her wand and pop the bubbles like her life depended on it, she closed her eyes and focused on the shadowing the student's correct pronunciation .
Readying her wand, she imagined all her magic to push themselves towards her wand and softly uttered :
" BUL-la-rum im-MOR-ta-lem "

The Bubble Producing Charm
Lallie was very excited for today. Not because she would be making bubbles, not because she would be learning a new charm, not because the History of Magic teacher was teaching a charm, but because she would finally be able to do something her brother couldn't!
She knew for a fact this charm wasn't on the curriculum when he was in Hogwarts and that he hadn't had the ability to learn it optionally. She finally found something she could do that her parents couldn't compare with her brother!
Being giddier than a kid in a candy shop Lallie cheerfully walked into the History class. She didn't really notice any familiar faces she could sit next to. Millie was there, but there weren't any seats available next to her so Lallie just plopped into a seat in the middle of the room.
Lallie looked up to the front of the board listening to the brief lecture. 'Seems simple enough, I just have to say the correct incantation. BUL-la-rum im-MOR-ta-lem' Lallie thought repeating the incantation in her head.
She saw everyone wiping out their wands and performing the incantation, some succeeding and others failing. Lallie wanted to take her time though. Learning charms was a delicate process and even though failing this spell probably won't do any damage, Lallie wanted to make it a habit to not screw up charms and spells.
She ran the incantation in her head one more time before pulling out her wand. Pointing the wand in a direction that was least likely to end with people getting soap in their eyes Lallie started the incantation.
"Bullarum Immortalum!" Lallie cried focusing on the words, what they mean, what they produce, and the image of what should appear out of her wand.

The Bubble Producing Charm
[font=book antique][/font]
River walked into the well known classroom of History of Magic. She sent Professor Risa a careful smile as she found her seat next to another ravenclaw student of her own age. As usual, she attended the extra classes out of interest in learning everything she possibly could. Still, she had a suspicion of what spell they were learning today, and she wasn’t extremely fond of it.
River listened closely as the Professor explained the lesson. Sure enough, it was the spell River had suspected, bubbles... what good can this spell do you anyway? She wasn’t too happy about needing to spend this class making bubbles appear, but she concluded that there was probably some use for it. I assume it could be used as a distraction or something.
As Professor Risa introduced the voulenteers, River immediately recognized the ravenclaw boy. She didn’t know him at all, but she had seen him around quite a lot.
When instructed, River got up and stood in line in front of Levi. She didn’t want to go first, as she liked having some time to go over the incantation in her head before actually attempting the spell. BUL-la-rum im-MOR-ta-lem, BUL-la-rum im-MOR-ta-lem... she repeated it again and again, clearly and concentrated on the spell. Luckilly, there wasn’t any movement to worry about for this particular spell, and that was a relief. Before long, River was up front in line, and it was her turn to attempt the spell. She was determined to get it, she didn’t want to waste any valuable time, so she pointed her wand toward the ravenclaw boy, and called out, «Bullarum Immortalem!». She focused her mind on the spell, and on it’s hopeful effect.

The Bubble Producing Charm
Charlotte entered the classroom, completely unaware of what they were going to learn today. She sat at the desk closest to the board, taking her notebook, quill and ink out. As she looked out the window, a slight smile spread across her face, seeing the clouds slowly fade away.
She watched patiently as the professor explained the lesson, her head on her right hand. Never would she have expected to learn a Bubble Producing Charm in History of Magic. She frowned, wondering if it was some kind of joke, but as she looked around to her classmates, she understood it was really happening.
How could that ever be useful? She didn't really know but the thought of it was quite amusing. A few seconds later, they all stood up, forming a line. Charlotte was right in the middle and felt her heart beat faster and faster in her chest and her hand holding her wand was shaking slightly. The students were all doing great and fear of failing grew stronger.
Her eyes closed, she took a deep breath as she repeated the spell in her head. What if I pronounce it badly ? What if it doesn't work? Bullarum Immortalem, Bullarum Immortalem, BUL-la-rum Im-MOR-ta-lem... That was quite a mouthful and she was sure she was going to stutter once her turn came.
Soon enough, the moment she dreaded the most arrived and Charlotte knew and felt all eyes on her. She took a deep breath, holding her wand up in front of her. Not thinking about anything else, she cleared her throat and said clearly 'Bullarum Immortalem', her eyes frozen on the tip of her wand, hoping to see bubbles, even the smallest ones.
