After copying down his notes, Austin raised his hand and waited to be called on. He remembered when he had used this spell on his dad one night. His mother had to stay late at the hospital, so his father was doing the dishes. Let's just say there were bubbles and broken plates everywhere. Again. Lucille Moore was not happy when she came home. There was more of a mess than when she had left, and his mother did not love having to come home from work, to do extra work.

Also, Ophelia Clarke only knew Expelliarmus? Well, she was a second year, so her knowledge of spells really wasn't that grand. But surely she knew more? No? Well, neither did Austin, which was a problem. Even though there wasn't much danger at Hogwarts (although the Headmistress would say otherwise) Austin still wanted to protect Ophie. Whether she wanted it or not. I guess I know what I'm doing over the summer. Homework

Once Austin was called on, he walked to the front, wand in his right hand. He was proud to show this spell since he knew it well. He would be embarrassed if he demonstrated to the whole class this spell, an choked. He knew the key to any spell was confidence, and that was what he had with this spell. "Hello everyone, I'm Austin Moore, a third year Ravenclaw." The headmistress didn't say they had to introduce themselves, but Austin felt it necessary. "The spell I'm going to present is 'Tarantallegra' or the 'Dancing Feet Spell'. The wand movement looks like a set of backwards eighth notes with bends underneath." He demonstrated in the air. "The incantation is ta-RON-ta-LEG-gra. With emphasis on the 'RON' and 'LEG'. The expected outcome is that your target will begin to dance in a crazy manner."

He turned to face the professor, and took a deep breath. Austin directed his wand at his 'target' and with the wand movement said "Tarantallegra!". He made sure to say it strongly, so his wand knew the spell.
