What am I? (the reverse pictionary game)

It's an apple!

When I saw it, I knew I had to possess it. Its smooth, clean lines, the sound it made, the way other people looked at it - I had to make it mine. I inched closer to it, hoping no one would think I was trying to jack it. I was almost afraid to touch it, but I had to. It was still warm with the unseen power that would reveal itself only to those brave enough to harness it.

A car?

Kerr wins it!!!

This is fun!!

OK, here's another:

Even from afar, his power is obvious. The muscles are wound tight beneath his skin, ready to fly at the smallest sound. Closer, his eyes capture your attention, intelligent, observant, ready to appraise you. You think to master him, but you will learn he is not to be bested. He gives because he loves, not because he must. Your partner, your friend, your ally - a partnership perfected throughout the eons, brought to life in him, and in you. Ride long, partner!

Very close - they are sometimes found working together.

Yay for Hillary!

Now someone else post a description, so I don't totally house Willow's thread!

Trish

Window to the stars.

?

an observatory? the one that is located in chile. in the andes? the thing is i cannot figure how to post a picture. --s6

now i describe something?

the hallway is dim and very cold; green and gray linoleum, gray tiled walls. just inside the book cluttered room the air is warmer thanks to a bank of tall, old fashioned windows. the autumn sunlight pours over the geraniums on the window sill and pools in honey brown puddles on the oaken floor. eleven studiously bent heads, from platinum to raven, are intent on sus tareas . pens scratch on paper.

hope i am doing this correctly. you should be able to pin this down exactly.

Hogwarts?

almost as old as hogwarts

a high school spanish classroom in a circa 1928 building. the boiler is broken down again. the modern wing is freezing cold but the old second floor is livable thanks to the windows. so the kids are sitting in the sunlight to do their tareas--spanish assignments. --s6

this has to be fast--lunch time almost over (clue--lunchtime)

a steamy, silver cylinder topped with a black screw cap. a paper tag dangles out of the cup that usually serves as a lid.

Tea in a travel mug?

tea

in a thermos--like an old fashioned travel mug. have been swilling it all morning to stay warm--s6

do you have a description?

Densely black with membrane wings, forever flying in a sea of chemical.

A horsefly in a cloud of DDT? lol

I'll take that answer. It's my paperweight - a bat in a jar of formaldehyde.

Someone needs to provide the next description.

"in and about the martinmas

when leaves are sere and fallen" --okay, not my own but a line from an old English ballad titled Barbry Allen. what is the speaker describing here?
