Splintering wood would happen any second the way this was going... except he looked around, dropping his attention from the chains in favour of looking at Ves... who looked a little.... uncomfortable. He casually went over to her.
"Hey Ves." And quietly, because... y'know, didn't want her to get embarrassed in front of everyone. "You're overthinking it. Psyching yourself out. You can do it. Just relax okay? Forget about everyone else... and focus. K?" He gave her a quick smile and then hummed the beginning of a particular song, one he knew she'd recognize. Use the music, Vesper. Focus.
Vesper was doing a fantastic job not acknowledging the fact that others could be potentially watching her fail. She was never one to try and stand out, anyway, or be too seen. So, she'd relaxed somewhat...and had even been able to frustratedly laugh off the failure...
That was...until West stepped into her line of vision. Was she blushing again...? The heat in her face seemed to tripled and she couldn't quite meet his eyes.
"Hey, West.".....And...if it were possible, she felt more embarrassed now than she had earlier. The professor would've been fine. It was in her job description to see her students fail and help them...but West was going to help her...
Vesper didn't know whether to be extremely happy, cry (from embarrassment), or...ermm...hide (from confusion
and embarrassment)...and they were whispering sorta. She was grateful West seemed to understand her need for some semblance of privacy. He was sensitive to that sort of thing...
"I can never seem to get these types of spells worked o-...."
Was he humming
The Chain to her?
O.O "W-what helps you focus?" Yes, Ves was forcibly pushing her mind into a different direction. No going near dangerous territory. Nope...and really, it was hard to
use the music...with how the music was...being presented to her.
