A thimbase was a new word, but that more or less perfectly described what Daichi had made. And it was pretty good. Isabelle smiled over at him from her position next to Laura (yes, she hadn't moved yet) -
"That's a good start, Daichi. Interesting design." Quote:

Both the pot and the vase could, after all, be used 'to hold flowers' as the incantation literally meant.
Good job she had a strong voice as the next question came from the other side of the room. Listening intently, she nodded, ready to respond.
"There is another spell that would do that, it has a slightly different meaning to it. Can't remember what it is off the top of my head. Though, there is no reason why you couldn't try and make the vase shorter and more squat, if you wanted." Quote:

Laura took up her wand and did the wand movement and said. "Floreneo." But as she said it she knocked the table and the thimble went off onto the floor and Laura couldn't stop the spell, where the table had been was now a vase. "I'm sorry Professor." Laura sighed, seriously it was an accident, hopefully the Professor would know that, well at least the spell worked.
But now to deal with this.
"You see, this is exactly what I mean about being careless, Miss Hyde!" It wasn't often that Isabelle snapped, but when the children were not taking any care with how they performed the magic, she couldn't help it.
"I'm sorry, but you have done it on more than one occasion. Once I could see as an accident, more than that is pure carelessness. Five points from Hufflepuff." Waving her wand, the desk was back to normal. Bending down, Issy picked up the thimble from the floor and slammed it down on the desk.
"Be. More. Careful. Please," she said, emphasising each word. It was almost as if the child was doing it on purpose.
