"Thanks. Thank you, I mean. I got it. I was saying it wrong, on account of I was thinking about how to catch the bulb when he said it the first time." Like how could she knock something back INTO her pot... and aim it correctly and everything? Maybe leave the pot propped up and hope her aim was good?
Or maybe she just sort of overwhelmed it instead? Dot propped up her pot, tilting it toward where she hoped to stand, and then she approached the cart of bulbs again. If she could just grab one, then she wouldn't even... but no. As soon as she got close, they all started to rustle, and one of them dove at her. WHAT WAS THE SPELL SHE FORGOT TO REMEMBER IT AGAIN.
OH. Yeah. "Flipendo!" And she MEANT it. The bulb spun backwards, clipping the lip of the pot, but Dot pounced behind it, flattening her hand over the bulb and shoving it into the dirt. She added two messy handfuls on top of the bulb to submerge it some more, and the poor thing stopped wriggling as it settled into its new home.
"Not so bad, see?"

Aw, man, he could spend the rest of his life watching the hooligans kids. Well, not really. They got sort of boring at the end when they started handling things well. But that was good academically. He was such a good teacher. Awesome job, Andy. Way to go.
He was walking around passing students and peering at the pots trying to point out something one of the student did incorrectly. Then someone called his name. HIS REAL name. Not professor plants or whatever.
Andrew stepped closer to the Ravenclaw who was asking an unexpected question. Huh? Did she say bulby? He was going to pretend he didn't hear that particular part. "Umm.. Sure." He answered after a moment's thought. "You're welcome to stop by the Greenhouses anytime," To check on ALL the plants in fact. But NOT to climb anything. He was going to make a sign. Yup. Oh, and did she say she wanted to watch the bouncing bulb become a grown one? Ooops. That was probably going to happen since most of the bulbs got ground into powder to be used in potions before they became too big. Better not tell her that, though. He would not like having a crying girl in his lesson.
ooc: Three hours left till the lesson officially ends. :3
Eden spotted the younger girl get it right and sent her a smile and a thumbs up.
"Good job!" she said, and she felt so HAPPY that she had actually helped someone with a SPELL of all things. Eden hardly got the spell herself. O___O
Oh. Here came Professor
Hottie Walton. Right. She smiled shyly up at him.
"Oh--so we're allowed to do that?" she asked, eyes blinking a lot and rapidly. YIPPEEEE! Bulby forever! She eyed her now calm plant and would have patted him had she not been scared of the repercussions.
She was excited, though. And she would DEFINITELY be stopping by...yeeeppp!
Layla seemed to have finally potted her plant, too. Good job, meaniehead roommate! Eden was proud of her--even if she had just snapped at Eden. because Layla was new to all this muggle stuff so...any time Layla did it right, Eden was too happy for her. She DID consider Layla a friend, after all.
