She wanted to put a dummy's HEAD in a PUMPKIN. Would Romanos mind that students were performing spells like those on her dummies? Alice sure hoped not, because she was certainly trying this.

She crossed her legs on the ground and kept reading. Hmm.. pumpkin could be shattered and the dummy's head freed, or it could fall apart on it's own? Which of those would she try with the dummy? Alice supposed it didn't matter, as long as the professor's equipment was fine. When she figured that she'd taught herself a good enough bit about the jinx, the fifth year decided it was time to try and cast it.

Couldn't be that hard, yeah? All she was doing was putting dummy appendages inside a gourd.

"Melofors." It sounded funny, but Alice thought she could get this one right quickly, so she was going to practice on a moving dummy. For the first time in nearly ever.

She could DO IT. Positive self drive. Yeah.
