Repeat this process a few times until you feel comfortable with both spells, and don't worry if your aim is a little off. Just try to get as close to the trunk as possible. Let's get started then!" OOC: There is no minimum post requirement for this mini activity. YOu have 24-36 HOURS to complete it. If you have questions, please indicate in the title of your post; I'll be checking back periodically to answer. Okay, Char wasn't MAD at the activity exactly, but she hadn't begun and was already bored by the idea simply because she was pretty cool with both of the spells already.

..... though that was kind of a first? Yay! Milestones! Was this TRUE evidence that she was officially one of the older kids now? Idly, Char 'practiced' the wand movements, which was really not so much practice as actually doing them with that kind of comfortable knack that suggested she wasn't about to have any trouble at all. Upside down U... waaand sweep.
Upside down U... waaaaaaaand sweep. Except really, Char's upside down U was more of a half circle, not with extended sides. You had more control over it if it was a half circle rather than if you dragged it out. It was kind of nice knowing something like that actually, for a change! "Accio!" Char summoned one of the puff balls, wand arcing into that upside down half circle, and caught the cottonball with her free hand. Then she tossed it up in the air a bit in front of her and, "Depulso!" A sweep of the wand and the puffy ball was shooting right back to the trunk.
With accuracy, which would have been more exciting if it was ACTUALLY her first time doing them, but it wasn't. These were every day spells in her arsenal.
