Did professors normally announce that they were not in a foul mood? So, the first lesson that she had with Bellaire was truly how she acted every day? Well... in that case AJ would just have to enjoy this "non foul" mood for as long as she could. The first year listened intently on what the professor was saying because she did NOT want to make a wreath instead of a flower. Third branch of Transfiguration? There were branches? Deciding that she would NOT bring up that, she worked on the incantation some.

Orchideous Stiriacus. That was a mouth full. "Orchideous Stiriacus." It wasn't sounding quite right. "Orch-i-deous Stir-a-cus." AJ said it over and over again until it didn't feel so foreign on her tongue anymore. Next came to wand movement.
Without saying anything she moved her wand in a semi circular motion in a clockwise direction. She didn't really need to practice that more than once.
