Dylan, deciding not to be a jerkface about life at the moment, took out his notebook, ink, and quill...and started taking notes. No, he was not taking these notes on the desk...but on his lap...Ink well in one hand, quill in the other, notebook on his lap...He had it worked out. Also, it was good to know that they'd be cleaning up this mess soon...The Captain had an aversion to filth. One so bad that he'd lost almost two entire weeks of sleep in the Slytherin Common room because of it.

Finishing up with all the spells that had been offered by his peers, he put the items away into his bag...and withdrew his wand. Scourgify was his best charm...for obvious reasons. He legit performed it at least ONCE everyday...So, now...when the Slytherin about about to perform the spell, the motion and incantation came easy. It was said aloud this time...for Professor reasons. Dylan didn't know if she'd appreciate his performance of the nonverbal...and really didn't want to chance another face-full of dust for his trouble.

"Scourgify!"

Smirking as the dust cleared and lifted from the desk, he quickly turned his wand on himself, saying "Scourgify!", again. The dust particles clinging to strands of his hair vanished...and Dylan immediately felt better. He also may or may not have repeated the spell for his face...and outer robe. Ahem.

The Slytherin felt ready to try this new spell, though. The wand movement was already kinda awesome...being that it was shaped like a SNAKE. Bam...but first things first. Whenever learning something new, he liked to familiarize himself with the shape of the spell...and go through sounding it out.

Poh-lee-OH-tuss.

"Poliotus!" Dylan traced the "S" motion out over his desk....and waited with baited breath. Like West had mentioned, he knew the other polishing spell...but this one was for surfaces...Super helpful and needed considering things.

It took some minutes...but the desk seemed to gleam and shine now...with the sun shining through the grungy windows.

Who was a boss? HE WAS.
