She probably made him look less guilty by proxy as well. I mean...look at her.

"I think it's an issue of fohwkiss. Although, I intended the castee to hit his or her face I really wasn't feelin' too picky, apparently. Both situations struck me as amusing, boot, having given it some thought the fist to face is really more error-proof and the next time I cast my fohwkiss will be on that scenario." Time to go forth and find the practice dummies. "D'yer think it could be anything else, Professor? Is my incantation alright?"

Honestly she wasn't sure because part of her had wanted to keep it a secret for the time being since that would be more fun. "Would the incantation generally be Latin?" she asked curiously. If so she would have to do some research on that because she didn't know a single word of Latin.

Listening to Cutty go on and explain his spell, she wondered if he knew the language. She had missed the frown he gave her earlier, so all she noticed was the fact that he really wanted his violent spell to work. "Is the spell meant for dueling?" she asked the boy curiously.


Maddox nodded slowly at the boy's inner reflection. A matter of focus sounded to be about right given the incantation being as straight forward as it was. The wand needed to have a clear idea of what you expect from it, otherwise it was likely to go a bit wonky. "I don't see much that needs work with the incantation itself. You've relayed your desire to the wand and simply need the intent to have it follow through." Again, not as easy as it sounded but there it was.

He glanced over at the Hufflepuff once more. "Not necessarily. There have been spells with English incantations; 'Point Me' for one instance and even 'Pack'." So there was technically no need to go scanning through old Latin dictionaries per say...

"Latin is simply the old tongue, as old as magic or older and thus a little easier on the wand." There was a little more to that but that was the long and short of it, as simple as possible. If she wanted anything further he could refer her to a few books so long as she had the time.

"Is there anything else I can help you both with?" While they were here and all.

SPOILER!!: Gabe

Cue excited, feverish grin. It was satisfying to FIND something after such a grueling search; even if the thing hadn't really been 'found' but freely given. He'd made the right decision in coming to the Charms Professor.

"Yes......and thank you. For the idea. It's perfect for the Prefect team."...among other things. Did he sound a bit breathless? Why, yes. Yes, he did...but Gabriel didn't mind that. It was all in the name of knowledge and he'd just learned something both NEW and highly valuable.

#Ravenclaw mission accomplished.


And just like that it seemed he'd given the Ravenclaw an early Christmas. Maddox let the boy have his little moment of grinning and happy thought and whatever else Mister Banner might have been feeling while he reached into his draw for one oft he apples he occasionally stored there.

"No problem, happy to help." Crunch. Especially when it came to a spell like that one. Had he not needed it himself at some point in his life he may never have bothered to learn it.

"Is there anything else I can help you with?" Or was he all good in this area now? Crunch.
