But now there was a DIFFERENT sort of distraction and the Hufflepuff really wasn't quite sure how to deal with it. Although he did learn one thing for sure...he had been sorta saying the incantation wrong.

"At least it shot out sparks!" he chirped with his own shade of optimism. "You know...instead of something off topic." Sparks were still light and stuff, you know? Clearing his throat, Derf gave tracing the star in the air another go. "Stellaris!" A little ball of light appeared again, this time without the after effects of a sparkler, but it didn't really fly OFF his wand and just sorta...stuck to the tip. Like a glowing lollipop.

"..............um."

It seemed they were both on the right track, but just coming up a little short. Yes, sparks were better than.. bubbles, she supposed. Natalie giggled a little, just enjoying Derf's company. She was taking the lesson rather lightheartedly. No sense in getting worked up when it didn't work the first time.

When Derf started working again, Natalie observed, still glued to his side. "Yay!" she cheered when a light orb appeared...

"Oh." It was stuck on the end of his wand. "Err.. trying waving it off..?" That's what she would do. Perhaps not the safest route, but maybe it was just stuck? It just needed some ENCOURAGEMENT.
