Truebridge ducked.
"A bit too much passion in that Kenaz perhaps, Kurumi."
...
Really. Couldn't have been that bad.
"Stand up, you're fine." Suck it up. Really. "A scratch like that is easily dealt with." Truebridge did try his best to sound comforting.
He tried.
"Let me take a look."
"Alright Kurumi. Take a seat and try to keep a hold of your piece of wood alright?" Truebridge winked at the Gryffindor.
Seeing as Professor Truebridge had come to check on Adam, Kurumi nodded to the professor and grabbed her piece of wood that now had Kenaz carved into it despite it flying halfway across the room. Settling down at her seat once again, Kurumi set the piece of wood down and stared at it for a few moments before turning to her textbook again to see what rune to try next. Wunjo looked like it was pretty simple and would be useful as well.
OK, less passion. Focus was good, passion was a little too much. Got it.
Kurumi pointed her wand at the piece of wood and repeated the wand movement. "
Intaglio wunjo...wunjo...wunjo...wunjo..." she said in a steady rhythm and in a much calmer voice this time. When the saw dust had cleared, Kurumi looked down to see Wunjo carved rather nicely next to her Kenaz rune. No flying wood. No smacking people in the head. No water all over the place.
Mission accomplished.
