And yessss. Enthusiastic nods. Nico. Her brother. Nicholai Toussaint. Co-founder of GothSaint Enterprises, the potions company that had that big St Mungos contract. Nod nod. And worked with Sierra's big sister. Nod nod. And now she knew and now she was practically family!
They were like ALL ONE BIG FAMILY HERE!
"Totally got to be powerful for all that." Nod. "The thing about meaning is that once you and a bunch of people decide that a word or collection of sounds actually means something, it gives that new word power, and that is one of the ways that incantations come about." And "Yes! Timeturners are a good example toooo. Lots of bewitched items are used without a wand."
Hmm...
Sierra couldn't decide whether or not she wanted to go and talk with the headmistress abou this. On one hand, it'd be cool to know how to just chop somebody's hair off. On the other hand, though, Sierra wasn't sure if she was tops on the woman's favorites list right now.
Wait...
"Did you say Professor Bun?" she asked. That sounded awfully similar to another last name she knew.

"Lets all line up now! Off the wall, wallflowers! Out of the corners! Come stand out here in front of meeee with a bit of space around you so you don't stand on anyone's toes once we get started. I hope you're all warmed up!" Yeah! Enthusiasm!
"Okay SO one of the COOLEST kinds of wandless magic is.... dance magic! A lot of Dance Magic also has some really crazy incantations or rhymes that go along with it. That's the FUNcantations part. Basically what Dance Magic is, is a series of steps, sometimes really complicated, sometimes easier, that are in essence instead of the wand movement. So its like your whooooooole body is the wand." Shaaaake it out. She did jazz hands and a shimmy with great enthusiasm.
"Rain dances, are examples of this! And some of you might have heard of Wakefield's Sambata. That is an example of Dance Magic. And there are a BUNCH more. Can anyone think of any? Has anyone heard of any other particular dances that bring the magic? And if you haven't, what would you like to call a dance magic spell, if you got to make one up? And what would you like it to do?"[/COLOR]
ooc: This is where you get to be CREATIVE. Two options here:
1) Make up something like 'Wakefield's Sambata' that supposedly already exists in the Magical World that your charrie has heard of. They don't have to know what it does, or you can make that up too. They definitely shouldn't be able to actually DO it 
we're just talking about hearing about something in passing. Creative license is fun.
2) Have your charrie think up a name for a dance magic spell. For example, if West was in class he might decide that it'd be cool if there was a spell called 'West's Wombat Hustle' which allows the caster/dancer to conjure up a Wombat.
Sierra smirked. She really wanted to make up something called the Smush-a-Puffer, where...well, you know. Those Puffers just wouldn't stand a chance. She also didn't want to share that information with this Cela lady. She had a feeling that with the woman's enthusiasm and love for all of mankind, Sierra would be forced to hug a Puffer by the end of class.
NOPE.
So she sat back and started thinking about a dance that she would actually appreciate. Hmm...
"What about Sierra's Phoenix Flames?" she suggested.
"It just sounds cool." She shrugged
"...but also, I think it'd be neat to dance yourself into some fake flames and then reappear somewhere else." It might be impossible, but it sounded impressive to her.
