It was a good job that Ella was doing all the sucking up for the both of them. Good old Ella.

O__O
"But..."
He began, then remembered about the not answering back idea. 20 minutes?! Sighing loudly, to show his annoyance, Theodore picked up the mess of the train and dropped it on their desk. Puzzles? "Umm... yeah.. yeah, I guess I'm okay at puzzles." Theodore picked up the wheels and lined them all up nicely.
But that was as much as he could do.... The rest was just a mad heap on top of the wheels. Time for a repairing charm. "Reparo." It worked like a charm before, but NOW, it was failing him.
"It's cos I'm nervous!!"
The third year watched as Theodore placed the wheels of the train where they would normally be and then just kind of heaped the rest of the rubble on top. She tried her very hardest not to roll her eyes, knowing that wasn't at all helpful in their current situation. Ella held her breath as the younger boy then tried to mend the train, frowning when it didn't work.
"It's okay, Theo." Ella said calmly, leaning down to inspect the damage more closely. Sheesh. They really had completely destroyed the little thing. EEP.
"What...about Erecto? I know that spell is used to erect structures given their pieces and erm...this train is definitely in a BUNCH of pieces." So maybe just maybe it would work. Best to give it a go, yeah? They were kind of desperate at this point, anyway.
Giving her partner a hopeful smile, the third year pointed her wand at the train
parts and concentrated on what she wanted to happen.
Oh Merlin's beard PLEASE let this work. "Erecto!"
