She was right? She'd gotten a question right...in Herbology?? Emmeline was pretty sure that that was the first time EVER, and she couldn't stop her lips from curling up a little bit when the professor said that she was the closest. Still, sort of right was close enough for Emmeline -- especially in this subject. As she listened to all of the professor's talking (and started becoming WAY more disturbed, to be honest), Emmeline's gaze flicked towards Stasya and Derf sitting by the door. She felt a little...uncomfortable sitting where she was without Stasya. Even though she didn't think Isa or Miss Skylar would let Professor Myers do anything to her from here, the door and her veeeery best friends seemed like a MUCH safer place to do this lesson from, mhm.

Plus, she should've done what Stasya did as soon as she'd noticed Derf lingering in the doorway -- gone over to him riiight away. So as soon as Professor Myers dismissed them all to spell practice, Emmeline hopped up and made her way over to Stasya and Derf's side before plopping back down next to them on the ground. She smiled a little sheepishly and said, "Hiii guys! Want some chocolate?" 'Cause she had some in her bag, she was pretty sure. Also, Luna was hiding in one of the outside pockets of her bag too; her little pink nose was barely visible if you looked carefully at the right one. Emmeline preferred to keep her pygmy puff close these days 'cause of the rodents that had been killed to make the blood bird -- but she'd stopped letting the purple fluff ball ride around in her robes after the vines thing in DADA. She'd had plenty of nightmares over the past couple weeks about what would've happened if she hadn't left Luna sleeping in her dorm that day...

Anyway, back to this spell. This lotus fruit stuff didn't sound good at ALL; Emmeline was almost positive that it was another name for the "goblin fruit" that her family had told her about when she was reallllly little. And that her big brother had reminded her to stay away from in the greenhouses at Hogwarts before he went off to Durmstrang and she came here last year. Which meant that it was SUPER dangerous and stuff, mhm. She shot her friends a skeptical look and went on softly, "Luna's free for cuddles too if you want. I don't like the sound of this fruit at ALL..."

It just seemed all too easy to use this sort of thing for evil. It didn't even have to be Professor Myers who used it that way, though after her detention Emmeline thought that he was definitely scary enough to do something like that. Just the fact that there were loads of it HERE and it came from allll of these flowers, if she'd heard that right -- well, that was a biiiiig supply of scary fruit that could be used for alll sorts of bad things, mhm.

That just meant that learning this spell was a realllly good idea, though. Emmeline figured that it could be super important some day -- like life and death important, maybe. So she pulled her wand out and practiced the flicking movement that Professor Myers had shown them several times, 'till she was comfortable with it. Then she moved on to sounding out the incantation, saying "NATE-UR-AH-BAH REVELIO, NATE-UR-AH-BAH REVELIO," under her breath several times until it rolled off her time like any other spell that she'd known for a long time. 'Cept Emmeline had spotted a bit of a flaw in learning this spell, mhm. She raised her hand and asked Professor Myers tentatively: "Uhhh, Professor... But if we're just LEARNING this new spell, how do we know if it's doing nothing 'cause the fruit isn't magical or if it's doing nothing 'cause we don't have the spell down yet?" She hoped her question made sense. 'Cause her new spells almost never did anything anyway the first time she tried them for real and stuff. Sometimes it even took her multiple attempts to get the spell to do anything at all -- and that seemed like possibly a dangerous gamble, depending on what activities the professor had planned.
