Bold was a must and one couldn't be bold without being creative...or something like that. "I'll add your suggestion to the list."

"Thank you," Kurumi said nodding and adding the desctiption to her notes.

"We still have a few more spells that we need wand movements for," she looked to the first years hoping that she could get some of their input as well. It had been a confidence boost for her when she had been a first year and the older students had been patient and allowed her to contribute to class discussion.

SPOILER!!: Kurumi's parchment

Selina admired Kurumi's patience with the first years but she was not going to wait for them to decide to input an idea. When she was a first year she was never afraid to speak her mind and throw her ideas in the pot in class projects. In fact Team Kurina had supplied Gryffindor with many house points on many occasions. They were a good team, affective yet patient... for the most part.

She leaned over Kurumi's body again to look at the list. They only had a few left so Selina picked another random spell, "Okay Verto Parma. We could make the wand move in a small counterclockwise circle and then a sharp movement downward. Kind of like making a P but more involved. Only because of the word Parma. And it also makes the design of a shield with an arrow heading toward it." The movement reminded Selina of Dido being struck by Cupid's bow. The doe had never expected it.
