Shera's lips twisted into a pout at the comment that they were not alive. Because could that really be guaranteed? But who was Shera to judge? At least as a first year she would be able to just do the pin... That way she wouldn't have to watch as she made a mess of a spell and would then feel bad about it.
But first thing was first.
SPOILER!!: Notes

Wand movement: Backwards L-shape, followed by a sharp flick towards the pin at the end
Remember: Focus on increasing the weight, then on its length or size. Clear mental picture is IMPORTANT!
Quality notes right there. Because this was something she'd need to practice. Especially if it was a launching point to the next step. Which was for OWLs
and she was just going to ignore that now because they had like, forever until then, right?. Although there was one thing missing.
"Hey Professor, does this spell work on things other than pins or just pins?" cause the notes only referred to pins.
Question out of the way, the first year allowed herself to get up onto her feet to grab a pin, more or less satisfied with her notes. Having grabbed it, and back in her seat very quickly, she tried to picture the pin turning into a little Ravenclaw flag. Which was awesome because she was making it to support herself! She was however struggling at even thinking about it making it to that point, let alone the change of it's weight as she held in her her hand.
Quickly practicing the wand movement without any words, she finally nodded to herself.
"Mutatis Insigne," she spoke at the same time as her wand movement finally, tilting her head to the side. Had anything happened? It might have been a teensy bit longer.... or that was just her imagination....
Guess it was time try again.
