MERLIN, this professor liked to talk! Maddie just stared at the woman, trying to keep up with what she was saying. She'd heard of Duro before, but when the professor dropped the word 'molecular', Maddie started having to squint to keep her concentration up to par. She got the gist of it, though. Turning an object into stone changed the molecular makeup of the object, and that's what made it a Transfiguration spell.

So now they were going to practice it, which had Maddie promptly on her feet with her wand drawn. She liked getting up and moving around. Too much sitting in one place always got to her to fidgeting. "Duro! Duro!" she said, trying to remember all the things the professor had said about focus and concentration. "DURO!" Tracing the letter D in the air wasn't all that difficult either, but Maddie gave it a go a few times anyway just to make sure she was comfortable with things.

...and then the most super cool form of Transfiguration happened! The professor just KABOOM!...turned somebody's hair into a mix of boogies and vomit colors. Ewww... Then to add flames to the fire, the professor asked Maddie to wake them up. As in...possibly touch that head of hair?! Nooooo thanks! But she'd wake them up, nevertheless. She couldn't even tell who they were all thanks to the new hairstyle.

"HEYYYYYY, YOU!" she called out, in her trademark tone. "You've got a NEWWWWW HAIR-DO!!!" She poked the back of the person ever-so-slightly, so as to hopefully wake them up.
