SPOILER!!: Carl!

Hady could feel the younger Hufflepuff watching her every move. It was totally fine by her really. That's how people learned most of the time. Watching closely and then giving it a go on their own. "No problem, just always remember to make sure you're being clear about what you want. Never ask the wand to do something, you need to tell it to do it," she explained with a light laugh. Stepping back a little bit to give him room she watched as he gave the charm a try. First time was a no go but the second time worked jsut well for him. "Nice job and sure thing. It's basically the same thing just saying 'Colloportus' rather then 'Alohomora'. It's a little tougher but I bet you can get it in no time. Give it a try?" Hady pointed her wand at the cabinet before them and cast the locking charm, hearing it click locked tight she then cast the unlocking charm once more so that Carl could give it a try. "Once you got that down it's the same unlocking charm for the box."

SPOILER!!: Daxton!

With the glass fixed Hadleigh turned her sights on the younger boy once more for just a second. He might not have spoken at all but the shake of his head was enough for her. At least he hadn't been hurt at all even if the glass breaking was done on purpose. No more words were said to him but she did give him a small smirk at his creativeness to do things on his own without the use of his wand.

SPOILER!!: Haddie!

Brushing a lock of stray brown hair from her face the female snake completely ignored the eye rolling from the younger girl. The attitude she was also given went uncommented on as well even when her arm was grabbed and she was pulled along. Lightly pulling herself free she blinked at the girl. No need to start anything Hady. Mouth shut she looked at the cabinet and how the girl was working the charm. Form was right, wording correct. Hmm. "I see. That's rather strange. How about giving it a go on a different cabinet real quick? Maybe there's just something wrong with this one." It was unlikely yes but it was possible. If the same thing happened on a different cabinet then it was clearly something with how the first year was casting the spell and Hady would have to try something else.

---
Hady didn't mind one bit giving assistance to anyone else that may have needed it. However she couldn't forget that she herself still needed to complete the test. So without waiting another second she knelt down on one knee, set the box down on the floor a few inches away and aimed her wand at it. "Alohomora!," she cast clearly. It took hardly a second before she heard her box click open just as she knew it would. Prefect.

And opening her own box! Otter This World ♡ Catpurrccino ♡ Slotherin ♡ Pandamonium SPOILER!!: Carl! Carl thought hard, his brows furrowed. What had gone wrong? He knew for one thing that he did not say the word right. "Alohomora, Alohomora, Alohomora." He repeated under his breath, making sure that he said every syllable clearly. Then, he saw an older girl make her way to a cabinet near him. Carl smiled back at her, wondering if she saw his weak attempt at the unlocking charm. Apparently she did, for she shook her head gave him more advice. Stepping back from the cabinet immediately, he listened carefully to everything she said and watched her demonstration. Aaand her cabinet was unlocked! "Wow. I mean, thank you." He said and turned to his own task. He pointed his wand at the lock and said, "Alohomora." There was movement at the lock! Or ... maybe it was just a trick of the light. The cabinet was still shut tight. Carl cleared his throat for another try. "Alohomora!" He said clearly, pointing his wand firmly at the lock. With a click, the cabinet opened up. The Hufflepuff grinned properly for the first time since the door to the charms room shut. He pulled out the small box inside and closed the cabinet door again. "Uh, could you teach me the locking charm too?" He asked, looking at the girl. Hady could feel the younger Hufflepuff watching her every move. It was totally fine by her really. That's how people learned most of the time. Watching closely and then giving it a go on their own. "No problem, just always remember to make sure you're being clear about what you want. Never ask the wand to do something, you need to tell it to do it," she explained with a light laugh. Stepping back a little bit to give him room she watched as he gave the charm a try. First time was a no go but the second time worked jsut well for him. "Nice job and sure thing. It's basically the same thing just saying 'Colloportus'** rather then 'Alohomora'. It's a little tougher but I bet you can get it in no time. Give it a try?" Hady pointed her wand at the cabinet before them and cast the locking charm, hearing it click locked tight she then cast the unlocking charm once more so that Carl could give it a try. "Once you got that down it's the same unlocking charm for the box." SPOILER!!*: Daxton!* So, exactly how was this number code kept inside the box? On parchment? Carved into the bottom of the box on the inside? Daxton only hoped it would not jump out of him, accompanied with glitter and confetti or anything like that, but one could never be sure. He tried to pry it open sans magic, just to make sure this was not a test to make sure they were checking all the obvious answers (it was not), then held the box by his ear and gave it a good shake, to see what he could hear. Not that that would help him get into it. Daxton was fully aware that the Unlocking Charm would likely be the only way of getting inside... unless he found a way to destroy this, too? Alas, he had no hammer. Maybe a heavy textbook, dropped onto it from as high as he could reach? The Ravenclaw was struck by a sudden idea, and surveyed the room once again. But before he could find what he was looking for, he noticed an older student approach, and he blinked at her. Frowning, mostly in confusion, Daxton only shook his head in response to her latter question, despite being visibly fine, and watched as the older girl (Lynch? Was that her name? Daxton thought it might be) fixed the glass. He had not asked her too, and it was sort of annoying in that so many older students just thrust their assistance at him regardless of what he wanted, asked for, or accepted... but now his cabinet looked exactly like those of the students that had followed the instructions exactly. This had all worked out quite well for Daxton. He continued watching the girl even as she turned to help another student, considering he carefully. After a moment, Daxton decided against using her for his plan, in case it gave her the impression that he appreciated or required her help. Instead, he scanned the other students in the immediate vicinity, fiddling with the box in his hands, looking for something in particular. And waiting... waiting for the right moment... With the glass fixed Hadleigh turned her sights on the younger boy once more for just a second. He might not have spoken at all but the shake of his head was enough for her. At least he hadn't been hurt at all even if the glass breaking was done on purpose. No more words were said to him but she did give him a small smirk at his creativeness to do things on his own without the use of his wand. SPOILER!!: Haddie! Haddie scoffed and rolled her eyes. "Uh huh, yep. Yeah. That's what I've been doing. Exactly. A lot." She sighed. Old people! Always think it's because you're not doing the simplest things. Every time. "Here, see." She grabbed the older Slytherin girl's hand and dragged her along to the cabinet Haddie was using. "Stand here." She positioned the girl by the shoulders. "Watch." Haddie turned back to the cabinet, raised her wand and checked to make sure the Slytherin was watching. "Colloportus!" Her voice was filled with the same confidence that was quickly becoming her signature. Click. She tugged on the cabinet door, showing it was locked. "See, it works." Haddie folded her arms and waited a moment. "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaa, " she gasped, "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa," Click, "aaaaand there it is." A quick tug on the door and it popped open. "See?" She paused, then tried again, this time to illustrate that even keeping her mind on it staying locked didn't seem to work. Haddie aimed her wand again and closed her eyes. A simple lock appeared in her mind, locked tightly and staying that way. "Colloportus!" Click. She kept her eyes closed, kept that imagine of a lock staying forever locked, never unlocking, never budging, just remaining locked and... "Click. Haddie sighed, turned to her tutor and shrugged. "So now what?" Brushing a lock of stray brown hair from her face the female snake completely ignored the eye rolling from the younger girl.
