 Post #3; Water urine trouble | Pat's Strong Confident Other Half | Pees Like a Champion Unicorn Racehorse
So this was not working.
It wasn't that he wasn't trying because he WAS. This wasn't like a piece of home work that he was doing half-heartedly because he hated the lesson and didn't understand and generally had very little motivation for anything. No. He could feel himself trying hard to stare into the depths of the water to try and see something other than his own reflection but nothing was working. All it did was make him steadily more and more frustrated with both himself and this means of scrying.
Freaking bowl of water showing him NOTHING. Grayson prodded it with his wand, letting the ripples flow out. In the meantime, he could think of a NEW question. Try harder. Whatever it took. The fifth year closed his eyes and tried to clear his mind of all thoughts. Kinda hard but whatever. He could TRY and there was a chance that it could pay off well. There was a chance that he wouldn't have to make things up but that didn't mean that that option was off of the table. Oh no! He needed a backup.
His blue eyes snapped open and he glanced down at the bowl of water. Concentrate. CONCENTRATE. He wanted an answer to questions about his future because maybe, just maybe, that would make him less scared about it all. And the bowl of water had better not lie. All Grayson could see was his own face glaring back at him but he wasn't paying attention to that. Nope. See? Full level of concentration happening here.
And what was the water showing him? Nothing, that's what.
Grumble.
