Having repeated the incantation and practiced on several times, Skylar felt comfortable enough with it. Only, when Professor Myers demonstrated it again for them, a fruit glowed. It was faint, but definitely there and then ... it wasn't. So what did that mean? Had she missed her fruit glowing, which was she hadn't thought it worked?

Okay, deep breath, you could do this. And then, her neighbor and self-proclaimed Herbology tutor (Isa) started exclamations of question after question and Skylar just stood there, petrified for a moment. Because yes she had questions about Herbology, but none of them were that focused. No, her questions were basic and juvenile in comparison and the fifth year just .... FOCUS. FOCUS. FOCUS. Skylar mentally scolded herself. "Naturaba Revelio," she whispered focusing her attention on the fruit, on the tree.

And then, enlarged lotus flower was swaying and Myers said something about it would bounce you back and that had Skylar wondering more juvenile thoughts. Like, what kind of bounce? Was it like one of those inflatable bounce-y houses? Could they fall into it on purpose just to see? Yes, she might have been fifteen years old, but her dorm room's signature food item was marshmallows.

Despite eying the enlarged flower with lust of wanting to experiment with it, Skylar reminded herself of the task. Collect four magical fruit. "Naturaba Revelio" She flicked at one of the fruits, and ... again, nothing. Maybe she was doing something wrong. Or maybe all the magical ones had been found. But no, surely he wouldn't task them with finding FOUR, if there wasn't enough for them all, right? "Naturaba Revelio" she cast again, on one that she nearly missed, super close to the ground. Suddenly, there it was, that faint glow, like Myer's had demonstrated. She found one!!! It was kind of on the smallish side, but she found ONE!!! Can she bounce into the giant flower now? Just to see what it felt like?
