Also, although midnight chocolate runs would be a possibility, he feared losing some business to the fact that as an 'of age' student, Cambridge could leave the castle for a spree at Honeydukes during their normal operating business hours.

There was a lot of damage, he imagined, Alexa Cambridge could do between morning and evening.

"Hexes and Curses? Merlin, Lex. I wish you'd teach me some of that. Most of the books in the library don't even cover how to. I mean, they'll tell you certain hexes and curses exist, but not how to do them." It wasn't subtle, exactly. He'd asked for what he wanted.

He stood back as Lex detonated the dummy with her spell. "I mean I do know of one. Reducto. Which I came here to practice. The particles just aren't of a fine enough grade for me. So I must be doing something wrong." Maybe she could help him with that and later, he'd ask her about the book she'd read last year: A Compendium of Common Curses and Their Counter-Actions.

"Reducto!" He said firing at one of the relaxed defense dummies in the corner and reducing it to a thick black sand-like ash.


Lex surveyed the dummy she'd blown up again. After some thought she figured she wasn't satisfied simply because she was hard to please and was perfectly okay with this. It meant she would always be striving for something until there was nothing else to be attained at which point she would have achieved perfection. There was nothing more thrilling than the perfect explosion.This was common knowledge.

Her expression lit up some at his request. Not many people went asking her for help with that kind of thing...or any kind of thing really and that didn't bother her but there was just something about Cutty. It didn't feel right having him NOT know any of the epic stuff. "The library's far too sheltered. Anything useful's in the Restricted Area but it's hardly worth the detention. You should buy your own books like I do. They're brilliant." It'd shocked her father the first time she opted to use candy money to buy a book but after learning of the subject it all became clear. "I'd love to help you. There's so much to learn."

Oh? Reducto? "Homework?" She KNEW she'd been forgetting something when she walked in here. It was good of Cutty to remind her even if it wasn't intentional. "Maybe it's like you said and you need different material." If things weren't fine enough she wouldn't go recommending people. Those took certain other curses to get just rightly dissolved and out of your hair. Instead, Lex stepped back and watched him cast.

"That wasn't half bad at all. If you really want it finer you'll have to imagine the power behind the spell even while you cast. You're gonna have to really want it shattering into fine pieces of dust. Like this." Lex took aim at another dummy not far away and actively thought about the most annoying person she'd every met, then "Reducto!" BOOOOM! There was a brief gathering of dust and smoke that quickly dispersed, revealing the fine dust of the once dummy on the floor. He was free to have a look before they tried again.
