More damage than a jinx? "Yes, okay." she nodded a little. "Good."
Oh yes, here we go. "Yes Miss McIntyre, they can be used for defensive purposes." Though if she saw any used without permission, well then... "Good."
Medea nodded. "Yes, good." She had no idea how that could be considered moderate suffering though.
Hmmm, yes, it was the in-between wasn't it? "Yes, very good." she nodded, her smile widening a little as the girl went back into the King's Dancer pose.
"Indeed it does." she nodded. "Good."
The kid was right. Unfortunately they were used for jokes. "Yes, good." she nodded. There was no need to use the stinging hex as a joke though. There wasn't anything funny about it.
Medea nodded. "Yes, good." She could just see the field day the flying instructor would have if that spell was used.
Would it have been wrong if she found the wobbling funny? "Yes, indeed it does. Good."
Medea nodded slowly, contemplating the answer. "Yes, alright. Good." Simple version.
The in-between. Well, whatever got them to understand it. "Yes, good." she nodded.
"Careful on your choice of vords Miss Wilson. Not all hexes cause pain." she said before nodding. "Take your Twitchy Ears hex suggestion for example. Good though."
"Okay. Good." she nodded.
Medea nodded. "Yes, good. There are a small handful of hexes that do not cause any pain to the victim at all, but like you said, can be rather distracting. Just like your Twitchy Ear hex suggestion."
Simply indeed. "Yes, good Miss Castell."
There was a nice, clean, way of saying things. "Yes, good Mister Vanderbilt." she nodded, smiling a little before moving on to the next student.
She may have missed the stumbling, but of course, she didn't miss the girl's answer. "The horn-tongue hex indeed. Good." And now there was more wobbling.
Ow? Medea's eyebrows raised, staring at the boy struggling with his balance. Perhaps he was stepping on something... "Yes, good." A rather disturbing spell.
Medea nodded. "Now you're thinking." she said with a smile. "Hexes are quite frankly, the simplest of malicious spells, though they aren't particularly longer lasting. They are a bit more potent magic than a jinx, like you've said, which in turn, causes people to believe it is darker magic, which in a vay, is generally true. Their effects are indeed, quite discomforting or eventually help vith more greater tasks, but usually people go vith the disillusionment charm when it comes down to it. The bedazzling hex does cause minor discomfort. Very minor though."
"Yes, the stinging hex. Good." Quite a popular one too.
"Yes, good." she nodded.
Medea nodded. "Okay. Yes. Some of the spells are a bit more painful than others, but all of them cause pain. Keep that in mind, Miss Potter."
"Pain may not be the right vord. Not all hexes cause pain, much like the bedazzling hex, and some are even just annoying, like the twitchy ear hex. Good though." The bat bogey one was both quite discomforting and annoying.
"And inconvenience, indeed. Good." she nodded.
Way to keep talking even if his balance was troublesome. "Yes, good." she nodded.
Medea nodded. "Okay. Good."
This girl concerned her somewhat. "No, Miss Hyde." she shook her head, frowning a bit. "Vot you are describing is a curse, in which the killing curse would be labeled under. Ve'll get to that in a minute or so."
"Good." she nodded.
Hmmm. "Most objects that kill people have been cursed, not hexed."
"Okay. Good." she nodded.
"Not exactly, no." she shook her head. "Ve'll get to as to why in a moment."
"Yes, good." she nodded.
"Yes, good." she nodded. Whoever thought of that spell needed some serious counseling. Seriously.
"Yes, indeed." she nodded, grimacing at the thought of a curse being used for amusement. "Good."
"Good." she nodded.
Medea nodded. "Hexes can indeed be used for defensive purposes, as vell as any other spell if the situation is appropriate to do so."
"Not exactly more dangerous than a jinx, but good. The hurling hex is a nice example." she nodded.
...
Sir?
She raised an eyebrow at the young boy. "Not exactly more harmful, no, though their effects have been known to be a bit more potent. Mostly any spell can be equally harmful if enough power or intent is put behind it."
"A hex can indeed be used for both good and bad, much like any other spell. Even jinxes. Though their differences don't fall in whether they are used for good or evil."
"Yes, very good." she nodded.
"Good. Yes." she nodded. The antler hex has got to be the most amusing one. Terribly, but amusing.
Medea nodded. "Indeed. Good."
"One vould certainly suffer vith that spell. Yes." she laughed. Moving on!
Looking over to the young boy, an eyebrow raised, seeing that Mister Katharos wasn't participating. Not that she minded of course. Surely Miss Stone wasn't already influencing people, was she? "The instant scalping hex certainly is one. Good." Letting go of her foot, she bent down and wrote a few things on her parchment before standing up again. Alrighty then.
Deep breathe and...
"Switch legs."
Certainly not done yet. "Ve have just a few more topics to go over, and then you can get out of here." Was that going to stop them from doing positions though? Well, that was up to them. "The final category is curses, and some of you seem to be a little confused on the difference between a curse and a hex. Or a curse and a jinx. So, who can tell me vot a curse is? And an example please, if you can."
Next leg...
It was a nice pose, not that she was saying it wasn't sore, but.. nice! More... Okey Dokey! She grimaced a bit not to the proffeser though... ''A curse is the worst of all magic... It harms one in a horrible way, which you can not fix! It is banned from using it on other witches or wizards,'' Then what was the point of the spell.. Really? What use would it be? Ever... other than... Hmm... LuLu glanced at other students... Like she'd ever to that! HA
