The dummy Larry was hexed to act as a illusion to be a unconscious human being. Larry was sitting on top of Professor Snow's empty desk. Many of the sixth years would come in to see the body and question Professor Snow a lot. Unless they read the syllabus, he wasn't going to say much. All he knew was that they would need it if anyone was in trouble and needed to be transported back to anywhere. Sad to say that Professor Snow used this once, not a nice thing to see.
But Larry was going to be the test dummy of the day. Hopefully the sixth years got a little glimpse of moving a tree last time, would make them think now: They had to move a body. He patiently waited for the students to arrive.

Mobilicorpus. Not one of Drew's favorite charms, especially when he was the recipient. Really, he'd much prefer a conjered litter than have that awful feeling of loss of control.
He entered the room and saw the dummy at the desk... the manequin, not the professor of course. Still, Drew couldn't help but crack a joke. "Professor Snow, you're looking well," he commented with a wide grin, addressing Larry as he took his seat.

Walking in with his bag over his shoulder, he noticed the dummy on the desk. He heard Drew's joke, and snickered at it. "So, uh, mobilicorpus? Isn't that like something to do with a body. Like..." he then stopped to think. Mobili, meant like moving, like the tree thing last lesson. OH! "moving a body.... we're moving this thing today?" he asked Professor Snow as he took a seat in the front row.

"Professor Snow, you're looking well,"
Professor Snow looked up at Drew and laughed. Knowing he was addressing the mannequin. "Yes, thanks quite actually," he said with a grin. He then went back waiting and thinking, then heard someone talking to him. Tristan Howard. His question regarding of the lesson today was curious on the young man's head.
"moving a body.... we're moving this thing today?"
He then shook his head, yes he shook his head. "Yes, we're moving this body today," he said sarcastically.

"Move that body... shake that body... get that groove thang... move that body..." Drew sang, dancing along in his seat before adding his own lyrics to the music. "Mobilicorpus... shake that groove thang..."
He stopped and looked up at the other two men in the room. "It just doesn't have the same kind of flava to it, y'know?"

At least with Drew's encouraging introduction of the charm they'd be performing that day, Alexander as he walked in found he had to ask no questions, and say no lines. He snorted a bit, and took the nearest empty seat he could find to the door. It wasn't that Alexander didn't like Charms, and it wasn't as if he couldn't do it, because that was not the problem, the problem was that he didn't care that much to do it. What would it help him do with his life that he wanted to keep as muggle as possible. As much as he could see, the wizarding law was just as screwed up as the muggle law half of the time, if not most of it.
He, and his talents were needed elsewhere in his mind. No matter how natural magic may or may not come to him.

Charms was a class Caleb knew he wasn't going to suck at. He was confident in his ability in Charms enough to go into the classroom without worrying about anything except not knowing anyone. He really wished he'd had a chance to get to know people before the classes had started again, but Caleb had been busy trying to figure out his way around. He'd been too occupied with not getting lost to make friends. It was really a shame.
Coming into the class, Caleb once again went straight to the professor, knowing he had to talk to each of them before the class began. He really couldn't afford to be late before he really needed to talk to each teacher.

"Alrighty class," he said as he got up from his seat. "Today's lesson is going to involve moving a body. You will need this charm if something ever happens to anyone in the future. I mean to say, that you use this charm wisely and not to fool with it. Accidential injuries using this charm on someone can put you one way ticket to Azkaban, as such this has happen before," he said as he looked at the rest of the sixth year. "Now, the charm you will learn is called 'Mobilicorpus'. Now say it with me, Mobilicorpus!. There that's better," he said. He then picked up his wand.
"Watch and learn," he said as he aimed his wand at Larry. "One.. two... " he stopped, " Mobilicorpus! " he yelled as the charm went jet flying to the dummy. "Now, moving a body isn't easy! You have to think! You have to use your strength!" he said as got the dummy to be in the air. He made the body be placed towards the back of the room, then bringing it back to the front desk, which was his. After he was done, he put his wand down. He started panting. He hasn't used this charm in about 10 years.
"Now... who want's to be a volunteer to do this?" he asked the students.

Drew had no problem performing this particular charm. He just wasn't a fan of anyone using it on him. Even when he had been unconscious, he had made a fuss after the fact. Now if he was dead, then they could do it all they wanted. he wouldn't care then.
"We're doing it on Larry there, right?" Drew asked, raising his hand to volunteer. It only made sense. What good would it be to learn a spell they weren't actually going to practice?
