Seeing Kurumi work on the spell, she thought of one, "would swishing and flicking the wand work as a wand movement?" oh sure, maybe.
"I think we could use that," Kurumi nodded jotting it down. Matching that with one of the spells on her parchment was an entirely different matter however.

He pulled up a seat rightto Patroclus side and looked over his shoulder to what Kurumi was writing.

He didn't know a thing about latin - other than that it was really old and according to his muggle English teacher was supposed to be a dead language.

Which meant he had no desire to learn it.

"How about we try something ending in -ifors?" he suggested. They already knew spells that ended that way... so that meant it had a higher probability of working... right?

He snatched the younger student's dictionary out of Patroclus's hand.

"So.. like contegifors for a shield..." he said. He then tossed the dictionary back on the table for someone else to use. He'd contributed. And that was enough latin for him for one day.

"I'll add those to our Latin word bank," Kurumi said acknowledging his contribution to the discussion. Looking up at the older Gryffindor, Kurumi's cheeks flushed. "Don't suppose you know what that suffix stands for, do you?"
SPOILER!!: Big Brother Lion Patroclus <3

"Everyone has great ideas so far," he smiled nodded at all those who had offered up a suggestion, such as Kurumi, Selina, Zara Nika, and Tayla, but he also smiled at the girls that hadn't suggested something.

"Kurumi seeing as though you have an awesome list of notes already do you want to have the task of Lion Scribe?" he asked on his precious little Lion Cub, he knew he could trust her.

"Zara, for the time being I think we might save the practice run until we have something that couldn't get hurt to try our spells on!" he smiled in reaction to the girls offer to be the test-dumbie, he didn't want to vanish anyones clothes, not in a room full of students!

"Shaw!" he called to the Man of the Hour, "Could we perhaps have a dumbie in Gryffindor Robes to try out our spells on!?" You never know something may work!

"So," he turned his attention back to the group, "We need wand movements, Rosemary, Christina, Heather and Janet, do you have any ideas of a good wand movement?" he asked of the few girls who seemed a little lost.

Then turning to Kurumi he sumarised some of the spells they had already suggested, "So we have had; 'Verto Galea', 'Verto Pilleus', 'Verto Parma', 'Verto Armatus', 'Gignatis Ferrum', 'Corpus Armatura', 'Corpus Armatura Cassida', 'Cambrair Scutum' and 'Contego' but we need more!"
More they needed, MORE!

Blushing a bit, Kurumi gave Patroclus a quick salute before returning to her parchment to write down the spells that the prefect had just mentioned. The Lion Scribe...hm...that DID have a rather nice ring to it.

"What do the spells you just mentioned do?" Kurumi said scratching her head with the tip of her quill. If she was going to be the Scribe, she needed to be as thorough as possible. Checking her Latin notes at the top of her parchment, Kurumi tried her best guess as everything, but quickly gave up knowing that she had a Latin expert in Selina sitting right next to her, and raised her eyebrow at being on Team Shaw.

The man frightened her...chainsaw and all...

After having completed her notes up to that point, she passed them to Patroclus. "Does that look about right?" she asked looking up at him for confirmation as well as to her right at Selina.

SPOILER!!: Kurumi's parchment
