post 7 Unforgivably Cursed | adultescent
Ethan had grown very distracted with the thought of practicing the non-verbal spell on his mind. He wandered the classroom in search of something else to clean, having little luck with all the other students doing such a great job of making the place tidy again. The walls were clean, the windows were clean, the floors..
He looked down at the floor, his eyes wandering to his shoes, and he remembered his earlier thought about wanting to polish them. That wouldn't hurt, right? He would be practicing the spell after all, and he was doing plenty of cleaning around the room besides. He swished his wand in an S shape towards his shoes and commanded, "Poliotus!" Much better, he thought with a grin as his shoes were instantly shinier.
And now to work on the rest of the room. He wandered near the doorway, his eyes cast downward. There were a few dust bunnies on the floor behind the door. Pulling his wand he cast, "Deletrius!" The dust bunnies turned to a very fine, almost imperceptible dust. And he sucked that up with a "Tergeo!" Hmm, could he try a non-verbal there too? It wasn't really that dirty right in that spot anymore, but he supposed he could practice it just to be sure. He pointed his wand and concentrated on Scourgify in his mind. It seemed cleaner there.. maybe he was getting better, but that remained to be seen. He needed to try it on something dirtier.
