Oh, look! There was Bee! The blonde bounced over to her pretty friend and pulled her wand out, waving it as a way of greeting. Now, she could help Bee with trimming, she could. She'd done it enough times last term to probably be able to say the incantation without tripping over it so she aimed for a really awkwardly angled branch and breathed in deeply.

"Flipnsnipwitit,"
she muttered, slashing the branch off quickly along with a few other braches that needed pruning. Snip, snip, trim, trim. This was actually really fun, even if she was mostly only doing it for homework. It was very rewarding homework, though and Professor Bentley didn't have to know that.

Tasks
1) Clean and prep the student gardens for the coming cold season
Rake Leaves
Trim Plants
Prune Plants
Water Things
2) Add organic waste from the student garden maintenance to the compost bin located behind the outdoor stores cupboard.
3) Turn the compost.


She was about to move onto her next task when she looked up and spotted Beezus and Elise. She just walked over to a little bush though and decided to continue working on her next task. Now she was going to trim things. She looked at the plant in front of her and glanced at a rather awkward looking branch - that was the branch she was going to go for.

"flip-n-snip" she tried the first have of the spell feeling the weight of the words on her tongue. "wit-it" and she tried the second half. It felt right so far. "flip-n-snip-wit-it" and she practiced it all together.

And then with a smile on her face she did the wand movement, the wish was like coming home. She had done it so many times that it was like breathing. "Flipnsnipwitit" she added the swish of the wand and her disasterously pokey-looking thing fell to the ground as it was trimmed right off of the bush. She was glad of that. That meant that she had gotten the spell right of course.

Whooooo to latch onto?

Her eyes scanned the garden, stopping by the pretty Flutterby bushes.

And Beatrice.

She zoomed over to the Eaglette, surpressing a giggle. She came up right up behind the prefect. "BOOO." *giggle!snort* "Did I scaaaare you? Are you talking to yourself, Beeeeatrice?"

There was no getting rid of her now, sorry Bee.

"Want help? I'm gonna help you." Blue grinned all toothily up at the slightly taller girl. "Should I water it? I'm gonna water it." Blue pointed at the plant. "Aguamenti." A short stream shot out from her Hawthorn wand.

Beam!Beam!Beam.
Beezus has just straightened up, having finished flipnsnipwitit'ing that part of the bushes when her Captain bounced towards her. Elise was even waaaaaaving her wand. "Hey, Captain Sparrow." She greeted back with a two-finger salute despite her fingers being smudged with dirt now. She did love playing with the soil.

Would you look at that...Elise was helping her trim out those bushes. Right-o! The more the merrier. And their party was getting bigger because here's Mika, joining them too! Ravenclaw girls and their trimming abilities? One of a kind, really. You can never find a bunch of girls who said their flipnsnipwitit and did that karate chop (HAYAAAAAH!) movement like Ravenclaw females do it. Right?

Right!

"Nice to see you here, Mika." Beam! And more trimming on her side....this bush was nearing "decent stage"...meaning it was close to looking more decent now unlike minutes ago when it looked like a miniature sunken nose of a ship.

A little trimmy trim trim here and there. Clip, clip at that side. And VOILA! Decent stage REACHED! Huzzah, huzzahness.

And then came that BOO! ..."Sonofahippogriff!" She jumped. Nearly tripped over even. She didn't see her little dollface Blue coming over. Merlin... "No, you didn't scare me." Boo. "So what if I am talking to myself? I need expert advise sometimes." Not a really Beezus response but hey, she was learning from people. They were teaching her to be witty and all. That was witty, no? Hah. But she really did talk to herself. It comes off naturally.

Okay, okay. Blue was joining the fun! "No, no...not yet. Don't water yet." Watering comes after the whole clean up process. Did she not know that? Now she would. "Help me rake these leaves and trimmed down bits and all that?" Heh. Nope. She didn't have a choice because Beezus was handing her out one of the hand rakes.

All right!

"Elise, Mika....you guys continue trimming, while Hazel and I rake." That way, they'll finish faster. Less hassle too. Chop chop, eaglettes!
