On a 7-9, you arrive dry on the shore w/ magical backfire, a CONSEQUENCE, and GET OUT OF TROUBLE.

A strange sensation surges through your body, as if you were fading in and out of existence from the inside out, but far, far too quickly for any pain, only slight discomfort. Your ears pop, the air is pushed out of your lungs, but in a split second the feeling is gone. You gasp- around you, you hear a clamor of voices going "What?" and "Whoa!"- and as you open your eyes, you find the Prefects mere feet in front of you. You glance around, seeing the shivering students around you looking surprised, some shocked, some intrigued, some... amused?

"Well," your Prefect says, "nice job getting across, kid,"

"Thanks," you say, chuckling a bit, savoring the feeling of not shifting wood under your feet, but sand between your toes.

Wait, you think. What?

"But," he continues, "looks like you still need a bit of practice, huh?"

You shiver as a breeze brushes along your bare skin. Your eyes finally drift down, hands darting after them to cover your exposed manhood as you realize that only you made it across- looking over your shoulder at the boat tells you your clothes didn't, laying in a pile on the deck. You blush, though you suppose having your cheeks burning red is being freezing and pale. Still, small solace when all your talent did was set your nudity apart from the rest...

(CONSEQUENCE: Embarrassed at being the naked center of attention.)

"To your credit, that was an impressive display," says the Minerval prefect. You think you see her eyes dart down for a moment as she says it.

"Not so sure it should get him out of taking a dip, though," mutters the Leontes, but before she has a chance to press the issue further, her eyes drift up. "Oh, hell,"

You follow her gaze and catch the Leontes freshman getting into position on her broom. Apparently, your unintentional attempt at getting across unscathed has inspired her to go ahead with her own plan. She hovers in place for a moment as she takes a deep breath, drifting back slightly, before shooting forward in a flash!

"Expelliarmus!"

...Right as her Prefect casts a spell, sending her broom clattering away from underneath her. Her arms wheel as she pitches in the air, creating a big splash as she ends up in the water about halfway between the boat and the shore. A second or two later, she drags herself out of the water on her arms and knees. Muscles flexing under bare brown skin, curly hair now slicked down with cold water both over her eyes and between her legs, but with a glimmer in her eyes and a smirk on her now blue lips and chattering teeth. You readjust your hold between your legs as your gazing takes an effect.

"Worth a shot," you hear her mutter, as she clambers to her feet, finally covering herself loosely.

"Right," the Leontes prefect announces, taking charge, "you get points for trying, but no ones getting past without taking a swim. Now hurry up!" She shouts to the people on the boat. "We've already spent too long out here!"

The other three look between each other and quickly seem to decide that a third attempt at escape won't get them anywhere. One right after the other, they swim across; Nadia going first revealing a lithe frame under her baggy robes, the Minerval next shivering as goosebumps spread over his pale skin, and finally the Draconis, huffing and puffing as she quickly covered up any other red hair besides that on her head. Nadia nods and walks over to you when she gets through the water.

"Sorry your trick didn't work out, but it looked pretty cool!" she says. "And at least it's all over now, right?"

"Not quite."

You both look over and see the Leontes head and find that she's staring straight at you. "I said ALL the incoming students had to take a swim. You look the part, but that doesn't get you off the hook."

"That seems a little extreme..." the Minerval prefect mutters, but she doesn't move to stop her peer as she moves on you.

She can't be serious, can she?

You have 1 XP and a CONSEQUENCE: Embarrassed at being exposed.
