Now, now. Did not everyone sound ridiculous repeating those words? Yes they did. Cassia was having a trouble not laughing. How could the Professor keep a straight face while that. At least Cassia was chanting along with the others and she could not really see how it went like the man was able to.

Ahem. She needed to focus on the incantation. "Mu-ta-reh Fa-bu-lah!" Oh, and someone was echoing her. Lex! Good bestie who knew to chime in without disturbing. She had many good qualities, this lioness did.

Bluntness, however, was not one of them. Cassia paused and turned to look at the fourth-year. "Nope. You're not finding another partner." Yes, Alexa, you are stuck with the snake."And of course we're taking turns. Psht." Initially that wasn't decided but knowing Lex, Cassia could very well see her threatening to jump off the horse until she was given her right of leading and mounting the horse. Let's not kill the girl. She had a loving nice father.

With that settled, she got back to business. "Mu-ta-reh Fa-bu-lah," it was getting boring you know. "we need to choose a rune, too, right?" Or was that part of her imagination.
