Post 4: (two hours later) Little Fox | ½ of Lauralie | Ravenclaw with a Hufflepuff heart and a Gryffindor soul | #HouseNATARIANA At least two hours had passed now.
By this point, Clara was convinced that something was wrong with her bracelet ... and she didn't mean the runes she'd very roughly drawn on it. She couldn't possibly have recited the chant so badly so many times. It just wasn't plausible. Not to mention how embarrassing it would be. Ugh.
She wasn't giving up just yet, though. The 'claw resumed pouring the potion onto the plant, and chanting slowly and carefully. "Sowilo sowilo sowilo, u u u u u u u u u, s s s o o o l l l, ju ja ji je jo, us as is es os, j j j e e e r r r a a a, si se su sa su, u u u u u u r r r r r r, s s s s s s s s s." PAUSE. Nothing. This was getting ridiculous and ... she could feel people watching her and laughing at her struggles. Granted, there properly wasn't anyone doing that, but that's what it FELT like. She refused to look, just in case.
.............................
Again. She positioned the vile over the plant and poured extremely slowly, this time not even trying to recite from memory at all. She read from the board, very slowly and very precisely. "Sowilo sowilo sowilo, u u u u u u u u u, s s s o o o l l l, ju ja ji je jo, us as is es os, j j j e e e r r r a a a, si se su sa su, u u u u u u r r r r r r, s s s s s s s s s." Now, instead of there being no reaction, the bracelet glowed. IT FINALLY GLOWED ..... Trying not to let that distract her, she continued the chant, but unfortunately, just as quickly as it begun to glow, the glow faded away.
It may as well have been a trick of the light. |
