After a few more tries, Kurumi felt as though she were ready to give the spell a proper go.
Until Milton spoke again.

At least he didn't mention anything about shoes, but he did get a slight eyebrow raise for his attempt at giving her a nickname or something. Still, Kurumi did move her desk just a liiiiiiiiiiiittle to the right, away from Milton and closer to Vivi and realized that she was in a Ravenclaw sandwich.

She did glance out of the corner of her eye at his attempt, straightening up her posture a bit before rolling up her sleeves and giving it a go herself. Something simple. Sandals. Nothing fancy. Just plain white sandals.

Tapping her plates, Kurumi said the incantation and then waited to see if she had somehow managed to melt things again this time. Only that didn't happen! The plates shrunk and morphed until they both turned into very VERY simple white sandals. Small smile on her face, Kurumi turned towards Vivi. "I think I might be willing to face that runway if I wore something like these," she laughed at her pretend fashionista friend. "Oh, sure. Anytime really. After class maybe?"
She ignored Kurumi for the moment, not out of rudeness but because she was pretty sure that if she attempted to multi-task, Vivi would end up with shoes that didn't fit or that were not remotely shoe-shaped. Neither of those options was acceptable to her.

She put her wand first to one plate and then the other, speaking the incantation "Pedestis" as she did so. The plates rolled up on themselves and began to shift and change outward to make objects much more suited to feet than mere plates. When they were finished, the galoshes weren't as tall as she would have liked, nor as thick, but they were black and rubber and just about the right size for her feet.

"You certainly won't fall because of those shoes," Vivi finally turned to Kurumi and eyed the flip-flips. They weren't nearly as dressy as what Kurumi had made, but the girl was obviously very concerned about falling. "You won't fall. Be brave about your shoe selection... at least for the chance to practice complicated magic." Ravenclaw has spoken.
