"It's so adorable," she said quietly, as she reached out a hand, to scratch the kitty behind the ear. It was a bit larger, of course, than her toy lion. But it was a lovely, little ball of fur, the kind she could have cuddled and played with all day long. AND the thoughts were distracting. She was thinking of her own kittens, High Heels and Mr. T, now.

Right. Back to work.

If Gold had been trying this spell verbally, she knew she would have been able to ace it, in the first try - she had lots of practice, with that. She had not done it much non-verbally, however - barely. Not to mention, this was actually a live object. That would make the transition more difficult. Concentrate, she told herself. What did she want? Something smaller, not furry, quite alike in appearance but not able to breathe, more mould-able, all plastic.

"Reverto!"

OOPS. Her Her toy-lion was back, but with a tail that was like the kitten's - no, that was the kitten's - and wagging quite unhappily -- and real paws. Kind of big, for a smallish, toy lion. Gold bit her lip, and looked up at Professor Kingsley. "Um?" she offered. "I think I could do it perfectly, if I tried the spell verbally," she added, thoughtfully.

Preston smiled. It was a good first attempt. As he approached he shook his head, however. "Again, nonverbally. You'll need to... in the future." A good practice in concentration for her.

Ugh, mate, dis-gust-ing. But on to another attempt.

Re. Ver. Toe. RE. VER. TOE. REVERTO! the boy thought, shutting his eyes to better focus as he flicked his wand at the puff!cake.

He opened one eye cautiously at first and then the other and breathed a sigh of relief. Whew, that cupcake looked fully pink.

"Would you like to taste it, sir, to make sure I performed the spell correctly?" Fletcher raised his hand and asked the professor. Merlin knew he wasn't going to try tasting it again.

Preston eyed the cupcake. It certainly looked alright. "If you are confident in it's return to it's normal state, then perhaps after class, Mister Fletcher."

It wouldn't do well to break his own rule.
