Honestly this Charms class seemed way too similar to Muggle Studies for Emma's taste. Really first they started out with finger painting, and look at that, now that the professor had arrived they could move onto using a paintbrush.

After impatiently cleaning her hands form the messy finger paint, Emma added some palm trees and stars to her painting. It was a pretty enough scenery, even if it wasn't very related to charms. Oh well. Maybe Hogwarts charms just couldn't compare to Durmstrang charms. Finished with the painting she smiled as the Professor, Primeaux she thought his name was, introduced a charm. That would be fun!

Saying the incantation to herself a couple of times, Emma finally drew her wand and inspected the picture. What to animate indeed? It was just a landscape. But there were stars, she could have a shooting star, and maybe the palm trees could blow in the wind. That would be pretty also. Tracing a star first she said clearly, "Animatae". Quickly the simple star was transformed into a shooting star. Then Emma traced the palm trees and said the spell again "Animatae". The imaginary wind blew the trees, creating a nice scenery of swaying trees and shooting stars. Beautiful.
