Text Cut: Althea <3

Katherine looked determined. She was going to send a letter - if the Minister bothered to read it, it'd be great. If not... well, she'd keep sending. "We won't know without trying. Would you help me write it? I can write it, and then you can check?" Hmm? Sounded good?

"So, I'll give you the textbooks I'm done with during breakfast tomorrow?" She could also give today after they were done here, but she didn't think Althea would go up all those stairs.

She smiled a little. She LOVED these compliments, and was quite proud of her working ethics, yes. They fed her drive even more. "You're intense alright." She looked at her with a you know what I mean gaze. She still thought about that pretty much every night. And she was glad Althea thought she was full of surprises - she was mainly worried she'd actually find her boring.

Anyway, right, that was a one-time thing and she bet Althea would never even want to try again, so back to work.

"Yep!" she exclaimed confidently, "it's honestly not hard at all! These are all first-year spells, you'll see how easily you can do them." Without further ado, she took a step back and brought out her wand. She combined yelling a "Colloshoo!" with the proper wand movement directed at the dummy, and nothing visible really happened - but when she tried to push it, it didn't budge.

......hopefully 'colloshoo' would come up at OWLs, then.

She also believed that if Katherine said she would write to the Minister, then she actually would do it and get her point across. Whether or not the Minister actually listened was an entirely different discussion altogether; but she would support her friend nonetheless. "I really hope you're able to reach her, I mean as intense as she is, I think she might listen to reason." Especially if the letter was worded well. As she listened, Althea nodded, though when Katherine had finished she felt that her mind was spinning. Leave it to a Ravenclaw to be thorough in all their studying materials. Still, she smiled at the other girl, grateful to have a friend who was willing to help out. "Thanks, Kath, I appreciate it." And she did. She didn't know how much she'd get through - but she wouldn't let Katherine's notes go to waste. "And I thought I was intense." A joke, of course, as Katherine's intensity had absolutely nothing to do with her study habits. So far, Althea felt that this was indeed a very good thing. The Hufflepuff moved closer to where Katherine stood to get a better look at the parchment. She was amazed at the level of detail and the neatness of her handwriting. "Full of surprises, aren't you?" Again, Althea had been under the impression that they wouldn't be doing heavy wandwork but clearly Katherine was of a different mind. "Kath, please, that...can we do that all in one sitting?" She wasn't entirely sure. Maybe it was her nerves that was getting the best of her, but she suddenly felt very incapable of performing - especially if Katherine was already a step ahead.
