Sierra nodded when Schirmer confirmed that she'd at least gotten the gist of things. She figured as much. They'd been given a lot to go on. Pulling her textbook out her bag, Sierra flipped to page forty-seven. She was pretty sure she knew how to do a simple twist and tap, but seeing as she was getting older and was now a fourth year, she wanted to start perfecting things.

Right. Just as she'd though--twist and tap.

Leaving her textbook on her desk, Sierra flicked her wand out its holster and got started on the movements. The twist was first, so she held her wand stationary then twisted her wrist ever-so-slightly toward the right side. Finally, she made a gentle tap forward. The movements weren't so bad, except it was sort of awkward to tap when her wrist was turned sideways.
