OH GOOD! The boy was focussing.

Losing track of the bowl of ice cream, Airey watched the Hufflepuff intently. He would ask what it was he had visualized, but Airey was hoping the boy would just be able to show him. "Good. Now, keep that image as vivid in your mind as possible. Really reeeeeeeeeeaaaally focus on it and then try casting the spell."

And don't be too disappointed if it didn't work?

To depressing a thought, so the astronomer would keep that to himself.
Vivid? As in, as vivid as a stone gargoyle could be? Forrest wanted to laugh, but the gravity of failure for the millionth time kept him back. He set his jaw tight instead, and bent down on his bag to get his wand out. He hesitated only a moment before grabbing the magical stick and got up, not looking at it again.

His hands shaking. It wouldn't look too well now, would it? He tightened his grip on the wand and pointed it at the gargoyle. His face was stiff too, but even he couldn't tell whether it was out of concentration or mortification.

He paused to imagine it getting up again, and said "Piertotum locomotor."

...

... ...nothing.

Guess a vivid gargoyle was this.
