Offering up her BIGGEST, brightest, and warmest smile, which wasn't much of a change from her usual expression - she was just a happy girl, okay? - Rea wiggled. There were always good vibes with Soph. Very refreshing. She wanted to BASK in it. "I don't mind!"...but she thought it was lovely that her friend had asked. So considerate!...And, to be honest, Reagan was just happy there weren't any green balls to distinguish from. Her poor eyes that day...and Slytherin how won. Hopefully, that hadn't been her fault...."Are yooooooou ready?" Sophie LOOKED ready, but it was polite to ask, you know? Just in case!

Taking a deep breath and focusing her mind, which was much easier to do one on one...she beamed at Sophie; lifting her wand. Concentration and intention. That's all there was to it! She wanted the ball to go from her friend's hand to her own; the one outstretched in preparation. Not her wand hand, obviously...but that was obvious. Also, Rea was concentrating so hard, a small crease had appeared between her brows...which might've looked a little odd with her almost manic smiling.

Whispering Depulso! in her mind, the Ravenclaw traced out the 'M' shape with her wand.

Reagan was THE absolute cutest, and Soph couldn't stop smiling huge over at her. She was like a ray of sunshine, did she know? Or... more like the ACTUAL sun. Yes, Rea WAS the sun.

Sophie was ALWAYS READY. "Yep!" She let the ball balance on her open palm and watched it carefully, looking between Rea and the ball, watching expectantly...

Aaaaand after a moment of silence, the ball was NO LONGER IN SOPHIE BROWN'S HAND, and Soph BEAMED over at Reagan where the ball had gone. "Look at you. You're a professional. Y'make this look super easy. Are non-verbals your thing?" Because they weren't Sophie's thing at all, though she was trying VERY HARD, OKAY?

She was half tempted to cheat, to practice this little activity with verbal incantations... but of all people Soph could fail at non-verbals in front of, Rea was probably the best possible person. Reagan wouldn't make her feel stupid or look down on her or be disappointed in her. If anything, Rea would just build her up, right?

...But she was still a little apprehensive, and she subtly tried extending her wand outward, waved it in a sweeping motion, and tried to silently cast, Depulso!
