Katerina spotted a older Slytherin girl near by. Perfect. She watched her sideways. Wow she knew what she was doing. The first year inched over to her and watched her complete the first step. She knew what she was doing clearly. Kat didn't quiet catch the wand movement. She was going to try this again. She cleared her throat again rather loudly. Hopefully getting the older girls attention. "Alohomora!" poking the lock on the cabinet. Big sigh. Ugh. She turned and smiled at the girl. "Mmm hi. Can you show me the wand movement to Alohomora, please?" She poked her bottom lip out slightly. Not over killing it there. See Kat knew what to say she just didn't know what to do with her wand.


Fully aware of the eyes on her even before the girl had cleared her throat, Brooklyn had continued her own spellcasting. Before she applied her attention to the box in her hand, she had to re-lock the cabinet after all. “Colloportus,” she cast, tracing the appropriate wand movement out as she aimed her wand back at the cabinet lock. It was only after she’d heard the click indicating the lock was engaged again that she deigned to turn to look at the girl. A Hufflepuff. Of course. It always seemed to be one of those who chose to bother her, except for Frankie.

“It’s a backwards S,” she said idly, feeling as if that should’ve been obvious. She’d known the girl had been watching her, after all. As if she was demonstrating, she laid the box out on the palm of her hand and pointed her wand at it. Tracing out the shape, she spoke yet again. “Alohomora!” As the lock on the box made a soft click to indicate it was opened, she looked back at the girl. Pouting didn’t work on her, so if she hadn’t been watching she wasn’t about to repeat herself.

Instead, she merely opened up her box, pulling the small slip of paper out and then murmuring a quick “Colloportus” to relock the box. She had the paper already, and the extra practice never hurt. Now she just had to get into the other room and hopefully away from people who expected her to help. It took a lot to get her to bother expending her energy in helping anyone. The little Puff ought to be glad she bothered.
