You see? I told you the best strategy was to simply breathe and move along. He surely can't expect you to get everything right all the time. You're still learning - and he's still learning what you're capable of doing, remember.
Ronald? He's doing better than I expected. He did take a fall this afternoon but it wasn't entirely his fault.
They were supposed to each run an obstacle course, in turn, that we erected overhead. The course had a hidden cantrip that would temporarily blind each person, however, and his team members were told to help him get to the other side. (And of course, we changed the point at which the cantrip would go off, and the course itself, each time, so they couldn't use their memories of doing it to help the next person.)
Well, Ron volunteered to go second on his team, once he saw what they had to do, but he didn't realise that the course would change. He and his team members tried to recreate the same route as his first teammate. He stepped right when the ropebridge was swinging to the left. Down he went. Fortunately we were prepared for a lot of falls today, so no harm done.
He's really very friendly with Parkinson and Perks, isn't he?
