Awesome... The compass. He took his watch and made the cross-sign a few times.
Top to bottom, left to right... Tap the object... he thought to himself over and over. When he heard popping noises from other students, he decided to put himself to the test. He wished after a few times it would be more authentic looking. He did the cross sign, and tapped the object.
"Comletia," he spoke very clearly to the object. Immeadiatly it popped into a compass, but the needle started growing up, to the sky. The glass broke, and the needle started growing bigger and bigger. Hugo looked in amazement while the compass needle grew almost to his neck. When he looked around and started to think this was getting weird he incantated:
"Immobulus!" and the needle stopped growing. Phew. What did he do wrong? Didn't he concentrate hard enough? Did he tap it too hard? He walked over to the professor's desk.

"Umm, professor?" he asked the teacher, holding his compass with a three feet tall needle sticking out.
"If you don't mind, can you teach me how to turn it back to a watch? I would like to learn it." he said.
"If it isn't too complicated." That wasn't bad, right? A Ravenclaw just wanted to learn stuff, not have it done for them.
