"Alright. Do you know anything about cleaning books, Miss Wheatborn? Its important to dust thoroughly at least once a year and for some reason dust likes to accumulate faster in the castle, so I like to do it twice annually." Althea took the first book off the shelf and held it in her hand, closed.

"Each book needs to be dusted carefully, closed first. You'll use the first charm to blow the dust from the top and the sides, so that the dust is loosened. Then use the second charm to siphon the dust up." Was she following so far?

"The first charm is mitisaura, its a gentle breeze charm, and will channel cool air in a steady, gentle stream, much like those gas air cannisters muggles use." Assuming she knew what Althea meant. The wand movement is a twirl and point. Tergeo, the siphoning charm, is a simple point." Althea demonstrated with the first book and then looked up at Minerva to see if she was following.

He needed to sign himself up for remedial classes and make nice with the charms professor...even if he hadn't ever really seen her smile.

He wasn't nervous though, if he could tame dragon lady Cameron and have her love him, he could handle their charms professor.

He knocked on the door and waited....he even started measuring himself up against the doorm noticing that he hadn't really grown much over the summer. He was only a head taller than the door knob!

A knock????

Hmmm that was strange, she had no appointments.

"Come in!" Althea called down from the mezzanine level.
