Yeah.. she could test hers out in the water, even if it wasn't the greatest looking boat. She glanced over at Bart as he pulled his out of the water.. oh, to try it again? Okay, maybe he liked the practice, she thought, then gingerly placed her boat in the filled sink. "It's working.. it's.. oh," she said glumly as the shallow boat sat on the top of the water for just a moment before water seeped into the shallow sides and it began to sink. She fished it out of the water to try again just as she noticed Bart bringing back his boat again, successfully transformed.
Alright.. while she was happy for Bart that he was getting the spell done, she was starting to feel a small annoyance at the back of her head for not getting it right herself. But she had progressed, she knew that, so maybe it would be even better this time. Deep breath. "Awesome," she grinned at him when Bart's boat floated again, shoving her hand in the water one last time to divert some splashes towards him before she got back to work on her boat.
It was going to work this time, she told herself as she placed the piece of wood on the table. "Reverto." Confidence was key, right? Brynn closed her eyes picturing the boat in her head again, then the block of wood transforming into that boat. Opening her eyes, she tapped the wood with her wand. "Lingnum Navicula." The block slowly transformed, this time into a shapelier boat. "Look I did it!" she exclaimed excitedly, super proud of herself, not to mention relieved that it finally worked. Now.. would it float? She hastily grabbed the wooden boat and rushed it to the sink, gently placing it on top of the water.
He laughed and jumped as the water splashed towards him. He acted like her elbow hurt as he bent over holding his stomach.
“Brynny.. You trying to make sure I don’t play Quidditch this year or what?” Standing up straight again he laughed more. Grabbing some more carrots and chomped on a few and waited to see if Brynn’s boat would work. He thought it was going to, but then frowned as it went to the bottom.
“Do it again you’ll get it. It’s a nice looking boat. Just needs to float if you are going to beat me at battle ship.”
As he watched his boat in the water and laughed at Brynn as water came at him yet again and thought crossed his mind.
“I know how to make this more fun.” Yes this would be great, because fun was important. He went searching in his bookbag as he kept an eye on Brynny doing the spell again.
“Great” He said encouragingly as she made the boat, now he crossed his fingers a bit hoping it would float.
Pulling out the vine he set it on the table,
“I want to try something.” He grinned looking at her, did she trust him? Tapping it with his wand,
“vinea funiculus” he watched as the Vine did nothing.
“Come on.” He had done this one a few times in class and it worked great after Alexa helped him. This shouldn’t be so hard. Really trying to see the vine in his head, which of course made him see monkey’s swinging from vines, which made him want to swing with monkey’s on vines. No.. no he needed to focus on the vine in front of him. Tapping again,
“vinea funiculus” He held his breath a bit as the Vine transformed into the rope. Awesome….
Standing near the boats in the sink he smiled,
“Now to play we have to use the ropes to try and move the boats.” He tossed an end in near his own boat and started moving it to make waves in the water. The boat moved a bit then he swung it pushing it further towards Brynny’s.
“What do you think?” Did she like the idea?
