 Unforgivably Cursed | adultescent
Now that was a lot of talking. Henry was still rather distracted with his mutant doodling that he wasn't really paying all that much attention to the actual process of becoming an animagus, mostly because he wasn't really interested in doing so. And it was a whole lot of information at once. Of course that didn't mean he wasn't listening, just not completely processing everything.
He paused in his doodling to look up as the professor mentioned the spell that they'd be learning. Cool! He did like spellwork and changing one's skin sounded interesting.. as long as it was temporary... but he immediately had a whole bunch of questions. The first question was how, exactly, would it change. Was it simply a matter of envisioning what you wanted the effect to be or something else? But as that was asked by Charlotte, he wouldn't repeat the question. It would have been really cool if the professor showed them, just so he knew what it did and could make sure he was doing it properly, but he could also watch his classmates do it too, he supposed. Had any of the older students tried this one before? He saw a few of them get started, though he couldn't tell if they were just practicing from where he was sitting.
But he did want to add on to the questions that were asked, so he raised his hand. "And also, how long does the effect last? Do you just end the spell with Reverto, or another incantation?" He knew that was typically the reversal spell for most Transfiguration spells, but sometimes there were exceptions. "Or does it eventually wear off?"
And as for actually doing the spell, he'd wait until some of the questions were clarified. But he did write down the incantation in his notes, and tried to pronounce it aloud a few times, just for practice. "Mutare Pellem.. Mutare Pellem.." And then a little wand swish.
