Or so his BIG OL' MOONCALF sized eyes were trying to plead with the woman when she came over as well. He couldn't be TOO sure why Olivia was acting all weird...but it wasn't the fire or the smoke since she had been fine up until they had started practicing. Which made him wonder why Cameron had peeked in and then bolted earlier...but he could think about that later because right NOW Olivia was in distress.

So...she had been OKAY until...oh...well...he wasn't sure WHY - other than he had a fear of plants and any time HE saw one of those he got all frozen in place feeling like he might secrete himself and such - but he definiately recognized the look in her eyes. It was one he saw in Abey too, you know? Not entirely the same but the pit of self doubt was there along with OTHER things.

Not knowing WHAT to do but racking his brain for something transfigure-y he rolled with the first thing that came to mind. Even IF it was plant related.
Only he got about midway through his clockwise circular rotation before remembering that he really could NOT do this spell properly. Like...at all.
Oh well here goes nothing? "Orchideous--------s S-s-stiriacus?" It was wilted, lacking petals - like...there were only three on it and in varying sizes - and definitely made from something more like felt than ACTUAL flower...but he had conjured it.

A pathetic daisy.

Which he held out to Olivia to take her mind off the other things being transfigured? Maybe?

Was someone speaking to her?.....

Eyes quickly darting around the room, they came to rest on little Derfael. He was...offering to help her...Blinking fat tears out of her eyes, Liv offered a watery smile (as best a smile as she could manage). Let's be honest here, it still looked completely painful. "I'm.....I'm going to....to leave." With too much talking, the sobbing had grown more noticeable, so she quickly shut her mouth, shaking her head towards their professor. Did Olivia need help out of this room? Maybe...but did she want anyone disrupting their classwork?...Not really. If they were comfortable with all this, more power to them. She could sort herself out. Had been for a while now.

Liv did, however, drape her arms around the Puffer boy for just a moment....catching sight of Stasya. Her little lioness didn't need to worry herself. She'd be okay...after some tea and a snack. Hopefully. "No...I'm just.....No, it's okay."

Don't worry Derf, Camilla saw what he was trying to do and had to smile. His efforts in making the older girl feel better was very sweet. She also understood Olivia's need to leave the room just then. "You're welcome to go into the sitting area at my office for a bit if you like. There's a table with tea, water and some pastry's," she offered quietly. It was up to her what she felt up to doing.

****************

It was time to get everyone's attention and end the activity. "Alright everyone," Professor Stewart called out waving a hand in the air to gather everyone's attention. "That's all the time we have for the days activity so please put your wands away and your daggers over by the boards against the wall." She would take care of them once the lesson was fully over, they still had just a couple more minutes. "You all did an amazing job today. As far as points go for the activity... Hufflepuff has 21, Gryffindor has 13, Slytherin got 4 and Ravenclaw has 3." The activity hadn't been much of an easy one so she was actually surprised they had done this well.

Pulling her wand out from her robes the women gave it a wave reveling her desk that always sat in the front of the room. On top of the desk was several bags of marshmallows and sticks. "With a lesson such as this one that had a clear danger factor to it, you all proved not only to me but yourselves how serious you all can be. For that, before you all gather your things and leave you may get yourself a stick and some marshmallows to cook over the fire-pits." They had all earned it.

"While your getting your things together and eating I'd like what you all think was important about today's lesson. What was the importance of the activity, what was I trying to teach you and what did you get out of it?" This was always an important aspect of each lesson. Hearing what her students had or hadn't learned helped her to know where each of them was at in the subject and what they might need to focus more on.

OOC: That's the end of the lesson everyone! Thanks so much for coming!

I'm leaving this open a few more hours for the students to pack up and roast some marshmallows if they like! (Cami and I feel they all earned it!) There's also some quick questions they're welcome to answer before they leave if they choose to. <3

You may also finish up the activities if you like as always!
