Nathan chuckled as he heard Jenny say he was not quite done yet. He felt her put cold paint on his nose and knew it must be red. She also brought them both a mirror as specified by the instructor. He could not wait to see what he looked like. He looked in the mirror and cracked up. He looked like some sort of strange diseased clown. When hw finally stopped laughing he jotted down some notes on the spell the professor talked about:



Then just before he was about to try the spell when he heard the professor scream and jumped slightly. Goodness, was that really the way to handle the people who were doing spells they should not be. Well, I don't wanna loose points so maybe I can talk to him after class in his office, yes. For now lets try the spell.

Nathan looked at himself in the mirror and imagined his short brown hair to have twxture of a scraggly mop. "Felinitas", with that he saw his hair turn slightly scraggly but not quite fully yet. He concentrated, "felinitas", that did it. He smiled into the mirror and then cracked up again.

But now was the time to get on with this lesson.

Unfolding her arms, Issy walked back to the front of class and changed the words on the board.



"Now you will note that the way you perform this spell is the same as the previous one. But the outcome is very different. This only changes colour, not length or style - which hopefully you have all already done." Yes, no? Scanning the room, she couldn't really tell, but most of them did have strange hairdos.

Holding her wand to the top of her head again, Issy tapped once and said the spell clearly so they could hear. "Ris-TAR-is!" Her hair changed from it's usual dark brown to a brightish blonde. Similar to the way she had changed it a couple of terms before for the Prefect's tea party. "You have to add extra emphasis on the middle portion of the word for it to work properly.

Smiling, she re-holstered her wand and leant against her desk. "I don't expect you to all turn it red like I did before. I was having fun with that - clown hair can be any colour you like. Whatever you feel fits with your make up and costume. And you CAN do it in pairs if you so wish. Getting a colour wrong is nothing that can't be fixed, unlike length and style change, which is why I wanted you to do that to yourselves."

Isabelle fiddled with her newly blonde hair, before flopping her hands into her lap. "Please begin, and if you need any help at all, just put your hand in the air and call me over."



OOC: I'll be off to bed soon, so probably won't post again tonight. Isabelle is always there though - but PLEASE listen when a Prefect asks you to do something. Any questions, or help required, will be dealt with tomorrow. Have fun choosing your colours!
