 Zombie Apocalypse Team Leader ★ ★ in a crown of pepperoni and artisan cheese
Well, that was okay. The professor was super busy helping everyone, and Olivia, who didn't have a clue, felt it was a good enough job to practice on her own a bit. Maybe... if she just memorized how the spell was supposed to go, it would come a bit easier. It had been said more than once that practice made perfect, you know?
The first bit.... Swishing. She, of course, knew how to properly swish. It was a wand motion she implemented in her charms work, which actually came much easier than all this. This being Transfiguration. So, waving her wand about, Liv kept her wrist lax, which helped with general swishing motions. To be honest, it was kinda like the levitation charm. Swish and Flick... but without the flick bit.
.... But the incantation.
.... Mutare pellem. "Mutare pellem." It was easy to say. Wow, and getting it out didn't feel that awkward to her mouth. It wasn't like some of the more Latin-derived incantations, anyway. That was most of her problem. She just wasn't that great at the more complicated pronunciations. Because.... Well, they were super complicated. Easy to get all tongue-tied on. They took loads of concentration and her wandwork suffered due to it... Not to mention her focus. That was probably why she failed so hard at it. She was always so all over the place.
"Mutare pellem." Swish. SWISH. Swiiiiiish.
