But that was not his particular area of expertise.

"That is looking much better, Mr. Song," he nodded approvingly. "Nothing like a jolt of light that you are accustomed to seeing. It's much more subtle, almost like a gentle mist made of white light."

So go on and give it another go.

A 'gentle mist made of white light'. The small boy frowned a little while nodding, because that had definitely not happened just now when he'd done it again. He wasn't sure if it was because of his timing, or because of the fact that he was so young and inexperienced... maybe both? Probably a combination of both, he decided silently. But the professor seemed satisfied with how he was working, so he wasn't terribly worried... the spell would come to him eventually! He could make it work.

"I'll try again," he said with determination, holding his wand up. No distractions this time... all of his focus on making the timing match up, because that was the first hurdle to overcome. He started the movement, speaking the spell softly but clearly; the first one ended right on time, with the spell and circle coming to completion at the same time. Yes, good. He started the second round... and he managed it again.

Just one moreee. The boy moved quickly on to the third circle and third intonation of the spell, eyes set on his wand as it moved so he could make sure the timing was spot on. He'd managed to make three circles right in a row! He was grinning almost immediately, but the grin faded a bit and he started squinting instead.

"...is that..." the vaguest hints of white light, possibly? Or were his eyes deceiving him?
