Maybe those cards were just naturally attracted to clumsy, pink/red-haired girls. Nika nodded her head when Ari mentioned Seborus Snipe, severious Snap, Sev- who is that?... But she just kept nodding her head and smiling, pretending to understand. She made a mental note to go to the library and actually get a book about him. If only the muggleborn read, then she would be able to understand everything.

"Yeah! Just like Dumbiedoors Army..... maybe." Dumbidoor? That's what she said right!? "Erm Ari... What is Dumbiedoors Army? Nika really needed to look these things up. She should just go and check out the whole library. Too bad she isn't much of a reader. "I don't think so. I think you just sort of show up." Zara had asked Tate about it and so it was open to everyone. Nika smiled happily as Ari did the spell and watched as the mouth began to go up and down. She applauded Ari and beamed, "It looks great!" Then she thought about Ari's question carefully. "Actually... Actually I think there is something missing." She nodded her head as she reached for her own wand in her pocket.

She took out her wand with a smile and looked at Ari. "Last term we learned a spell that transfigures trash into other things that have a use! So maybe I could use a peice of trash and transfigure it into a hat!" Now what was the spell again... Codavium or something like that right? She reached into her bag and grabbed an empty chocolate frog box, that was trash right? "I think it was erm... Left swish, then tap the item." She mumbled as she brought up her wand. "Co- vah- dium" Nothing.. Left, tap, "Co- vah- dium!" Still nothing. Left swish and tap, "Co- vah- dium!" AHA! She looked down at the box that was now a hat! She placed it on the snowman's head and beamed. "Perfect!"

Ari hadn't been so carefree in days. Maybe even weeks. It was so relaxing to be around cheerful people like Nika. The firstie laughed heartily. 'So I guess you have all the four founders then? I still need Helga Hufflepuff.' Her collection was pretty large otherwise, since she had started it long before Hogwarts. Living in the wizarding world, she got easy access to Chocolate frogs, after all.

Merlin, she had forgotten Nika was muggleborn and probably that didn't make any sense to her. 'Dumbledore.' She corrected her friend. 'He was Headmaster of Hogwarts during Harry Potter's time, and a great wizard. In Harry's fifth year, the Ministry started to interfere at Hogwarts, kind of like now.' the girl sighed. 'They had an incompetent DADA Professor, so the students decided to make up a DADA group and they called it Dumbledore's Army.' Ariadne hoped her explaination would suffice for now. Honestly, did she read too much? 'I'll be there, sounds like fun.' she nodded.

Ari smiled when Nika praised her efforts, but was downright impressed when her friend turned the box into a hat. 'Wow, that's wicked! I'll have to remember that, it's a very useful spell.' she commented with admiration. 'So, it's ready now.' the girl added, eyeing the snowman. 'Pretty cool, eh? I wish we could take a moving picture.'
