"Because," Jared sat down, resisting the urge to smile at her oh-so-secretive expression. "Something decided it might like to have us for dinner." Sort of. Okay, not really.
"It seems most of you can cast the charm now," Jared said. He paused, before going on. "It's easiest to cast the Disilluionment Charm on non-living, inanimate objects. Such as these." His gaze swept the lanterns. "The size of the target is directly proportional to the difficulty - the larger the target, the harder it is to execute the charm perfectly but, more than that, it is the nature of the target that defines the level of difficulty. To put it simply, it's hard to cast it on non-living but animate targets, and even harder to cast it on living targets. It might not be possible for everyone that knows the charm to use it perfectly on, say, a cat; and it can take people up to a year to completely master its use on a human being." Emphasis on completely master.
And?
"That's all for today. And this year." He paused for a moment, realizing that a year had indeed gone, flown past. "If you'd like to continue practising the charm, you may do it here, right now; or in the Practice Hall, later." He was going to be here, for some time. Jared cast on his lantern, and its light streamed out in a line, lighting up the path from the spot outside the Forbidden Forest to the castle, so that the students could see the path and he could make sure they did not stray from it. "To those returning next term, I hope to see you again after the break. To those graduating, good luck. Have a good summer."
All of them.
OOC: Thank you for a fun lesson and another amazing term. You're all awesome. <3
GASP.
That woulda been an uber, spectacular, wicked adventure!
But, she understood why he wouldn't linger inside if that was the case. Not with such a big class, at least. She should convince him to take her back. As long as it wasn't an Acromantula that was going to eat them, she'd be good.
Another time, of course.
Yes, yes she could cast the charm, thank you very much. BEAM.
Ellie nodded here and there as Little Professor continued. It all made sense. Animate was harder than inanimate. Humans harder than animals...
Wait.
"I wouldn't go trying it on your cat," Yes, because it was HIS. Even though, she didn't doubt the cat would
still follow him around. It would just be hard...not to mention awkward...to cuddle with an invisible cat. And that was almost cruel.
Unless someone used it to make a cruppie tail invisible or something...to get past that even crueler law. Whoever did that would be EPIC in Ellie's mind. Unlike Saylen who goes ahead and severs tails in front of an entire class of kiddies.
Uhh....
Ellie sat paralyzed for a moment while she processed what he just said. That's it. For the year.
Wibble.
She might not have needed to, but she was going to stay to 'practice' the charm more. If it meant more Little Professor time.
Wibble.
But wait.. He was coming back next term? Ellie wanted to ask to make sure that that was what he said. To make sure that those were his intentions. After all, Reyn hadn't mentioned leaving until the final (she grasped her camera), and Dodson hadn't mentioned leaving at all. And Carl...she lied about not leaving. Liar.
She didn't want to believe it, but she didn't want to ask and have him deny it either. So she was just going to sit there. Until he left the area. Maybe she'd help him clean up too.
Yes, even clean.
