Bad joke? See, it was moving now...

"Right, well, that was then and this is now. So, let's see what we can do about this, shall we?" he said while placing the gargoyle back down on the desk. "As I am sure you were told, magic is almost entirely about intent. So, before you give the spell a try I want you to close your eyes and REALLY visualize what your gargoyle should do after the spell has been sucessfully performed. Think positive and you should get positive results." OH! He had a thought. "Here. Ice cream should help. Works for me these days when I need a pick me up."

And he pushed a bowl of ice cream towards the boy along with a proper spoon.

Forrest didn't quite understand what Professor was doing with that gargoyle in his hands, so... he didn't comment. Don't comment and don't stare. It always worked.

...

Forrest was tired of standing there with his bag on his shoulder, so he placed the bag on the floor and shifted his weight, hands inside his pockets again. This was his way of showing his reluctance to do something, as if his expression wasn't enough to show it, but he nodded when the professor was done. He would try it. But he didn't have a hope at all.

Yeah, ice-cream was all good in the beginning, but after the second week here, he almost vomited every time he'd heard the word. "Thank you," he said politely, but didn't make a move towards it. He was full with potatoes, thank you.

Back to the business. He took one last look on the lion-shaped gargoyle and closed his eyes, visualising it simply getting up. It would be a big success for him if he got even that so... yeah. Standing up. Visualised. Done. He opened his eyes a few seconds later and said "I've visualised."
