She was SURE they wouldn't enjoy this pose. It did require...balance.

"Ve're almost done. I promise. Just one more position. The tree pose. Hold your hands together like so..." Demonstration time! "Then take your foot, and carefully hold it over your knee." She would make it a little less difficult by keeping the hands mid-level and not above their heads like she was used to doing. Before their complains could fill her ears though, she continued on.

"So, ve've discussed the three categories for dark spells. The jinxes, in which cause damage or negative effects. The hexes, which are the simplest of malevolent spells to cast, most often having some sort of transfiguration or other negative effect. And then the curses, which almost always are intended to cause grave harm to the victim."

"However, is it just the spell itself that makes it dark? If a vitch or vizard used one of these spells, vould that automatically make them a dark person? Vot makes someone a dark vitch or vizard?"

The Tree Pose

Harvey let go of his foot as instructed, he was hoping the lesson was over already.. that was until he was given another pose to do.. the tree pose.. reluctantly he did as he was told.. barely holding his balance.. before he lost it and had to put his other foot back down again to stop himself from falling over.. he tried again and this time he managed to keep the pose. He then put up his hand to answer the question "Professor I think it is the intention of causing grave harm to the other person using one of the 3 unforgivable curses that could automatically make them a dark person, or it could be someone who gets happy or finds pleasure in causing grave harm to another person using the spells. This could also make them a dark person automatically" he answered as he held the pose, he was trying hard to keep his balance..

Good." Probably talk about it later. Defensive curse? "Yes, most curses can be blocked by counter-curses. Not all though. Good." She had a feeling the unforgivables would be popular examples. Oh, apparently not! Good. Variety with examples was needed. "Yes the gemino curse. Most often confused vith the geminio spell. Good." Medea couldn't help but smile at the way the girl started her answer. "It definitely vill. Good." "Yes indeed. Good." she nodded. "Yes, they are not generally taught in schools, and I vill not see them being used here unless under strict supervision." she said, talking to both the girl and the rest of the class. Also depended on the spell. "Good though." "Yes, unfortunately some are almost impossible to stop. Good." Yes, quite unfortunate. "Yes, good." she nodded. "Yes, good. The focused intent is the most important vith the curses than vith any other spell. Othervise, the spell may not vork properly or even be successfully cast at all." Always came down to the intent. "Fiendyre is indeed one of them. Good." she nodded. Medea nodded slowly as she spoke. "Those two particular spells still affect the victim's own will to move freely, which labels them as curses, however...you are right. Compared to other curses, these are some of the least harmful." She smiled, lowering her voice a little. "Quite frankly, I'd prefer to use those two when dueling also, if it came down to it. There are always other vays to take down your opponent though vithout resulting to curses." Make someone ill... Blowing away a piece of stray hair away from her face, Medea blinked at the girl. Football? Alrighty then. "No. Miss Hyde, if you can please stay behind after class?" While Medea formed it into a question, the girl didn't have a choice. Medea smiled. Not because of the correct answer, no. Well, that too, but the lack of balance in this room was unbelievable. "Definitely not cool. Good." ... Pardon? Medea shook her head a little, not familiar with what the girl was saying for a moment before it dawned on her. Awww haha. Cheeky student. "Since this is defense against the dark arts, I'd say it's safe to presume ve'll going vith the magical curse." She could talk to her muggle studies professor for information about muggle curses. "Yes, to obtain information was a very popular reason that the cruciatus curse has been used in the past, and possibly present." However unfortunate it was. "Good." ...Dear Merlin, don't let the girl pull this one into the shenanigans. "The flagrante curse is indeed a good example. Good." she nodded. Medea nodded. "Good. Vith curses, the intent is very important when casting the spell." Yes, unfortunately... "They can be used to protect, though it usually comes down to the intent of the caster, and the situation they are in. The shriveling curse is a good example, yes." "They certainly can. Good." she nodded. "None of the three unforigivables are acceptable. Which is why they are...unforgivable." she smiled a little and nodded. "Good." Least the girl knew that the spells should be used sparingly if at all. "The blasting curse indeed. Good." she nodded. Medea nodded. "It certainly is severe. Any idea why the body-bind curse has been listed as a curse?" She just wanted to know the girl's thoughts and if she knew. Medea nodded. "Preferably in the presence of adult supervision. Good." She didn't want to hear that a wall was blasted open on the opposite side of the castle after this. "Yes, good." she nodded. The body-bind as well as the unforgivables seemed to be the most popular. "Yes, good." she nodded. Though she did have opinions on what was the worst spell. She wasn't going to put down the kid's own opinion though. "Deadly indeed. And I, as vell as the rest of the staff no doubt, vill not tolerate having that spell used." Just a warning for everyone. "Good though." "Yes, good." she nodded. "Intent is very important for curses." "Yes, good." she nodded. "Sometimes confused vith the blasting charm though." "It does harm one in a horrible vay, indeed." she nodded, though not delving further into the topic. "Good." "Yes, good." she nodded before moving on to the next student. "The unforgivable curses are indeed good examples, yes." she nodded. "Not the only curses though." she said with a slight grin. She knew what the girl meant. "Good though." "You can remove most effects of a curse vith the use of a counter curse." she nodded. "Good." Medea paused in replying to contemplate the way the girl's answer was worded before slowly nodding. "Yes, okay. Good. Curses are indeed strong, but not the strongest when it comes down to it. Other spells can be just as strong and just as harmful." "Yes, intent is very necessary and important when performing curses." she nodded. "Good." She was a bit bemused on his thoughts of the reductor curse, but the other two she could understand. "That is...a vise decision." she nodded slowly. "Perhaps think about it a little more and whenever you think you're ready, you can give me your answer." Whether it was during the next class or the end of the year, it was up to him. "Yes, intent is indeed important. Good." she nodded. "Indeed, the unforgivables do not have a counter-curse. One of them though, can be resisted, but it takes a very strong vill to do so." Hmmm. "Not really for self-defense." she shook her head. "Some can be used for self defense, if not all of them vithin reason, but most often they are used for offense purposes intended to harm. Good though." "You can let go of your foot now."
