Didja hear that? Didja HEAR THAT? A real live Professor Dakest had asked if SHE was alright. Man, this was probably the most historically important day ever. Norah beamed at him from behind her hands and nodded. "I'm alright, Professor." Asdfjdflkjdhfakjsfd okay MOSTLY alright, 'cause if he kept looking at her she was going to fall off her chair or something horridly ridiculous like that. She let out a long breath as he turned to the next student, and smiled at her parchment as she began to write down the words and words and WORDS of new information. So. Many. Words. But really all the word weren't that bad 'cause by the time she was finished with all her notes her cheeks felt like they were less on fire, which was always good.
The Hufflepuff stepped back from her desk!dummy thing and began to mime the wand movement just like Professor Dakest had, with all the twisties and the jab it was kind of cool. Like a sword! "Manis invisibilis. Manus invisibilis. Manus invisibilis," she repeated, then raised her wand. Alright, dummy arm. You're goin' DOWN. With a twist and a jab of her wand in the direction of the dummy's left arm, she cast, "Manus Invisibilis!" and watched carefully as absolutely zero things happened. Uh. Excuse you, dummy. She focused again on the invisible hand thing making the arm stop moving just like Dakest had described, and tried again. "Manus invisibilis!" TWISTANDJAB. She squinted at it. Was it just her, or was the arm moving slower than it had before? She squinted harder. Maybe? The mean old thing was still moving, though, which meant another try. Come ON just freeze up so it looked like she could actually do stuff, yeah? It was the least it could do for her. Well, maybe it wasn't but it WOULD be nice, okay? "Manus Invisibilis!" Once her twist and jab were finished, she let her arm hang to her side 'cause guess what! It wooooorked. The once-flailing arm was not paralyzed and boring, just like she'd told it to be. So there.
