Gaston felt awful for not excusing Skyler! Merlin knows he didn’t want to; the sad look in his eyes reflected that. He could only hope she would understand he was saying no to protect her. The last thing she needed right now was a surprise encounter with the fearsome four (aka Scrimgeour and his minions)! He was prepared for an argument to follow, but thankfully, that didn’t happen. He breathed a silent sigh of relief; he didn't want to have to punish her (or anyone else) for what would've been completely justifiable anger! He returned her nod, giving her a small encouraging smile, but his expression turned to surprise when she said she was okay. He hadn’t expected to recover that fast… not that he wasn’t pleased, of course! Still, he kept close watch on her as she went about her work.The successful Episkey earned her a beam. “Great job, MIss Queen!” he said, and his voice dropped as he added, “I’m so proud of you for persevering!”

Gaston was so busy with Skyler that it took him longer than usual to notice Lucas struggling with the spells. He crossed the room to the boy’s side, but by the time he got there, he’d already performed the spells… well, kind of. That bandage looked a bit untidy, but that was fairly normal for a first try. He smiled. “Well done, Mr. Dakest!” he said. “Don’t worry about the bandage; it’ll get tidier the more you practice. What matters is that you got it to appear and more importantly, you didn’t give up.”

After a few minutes had passed, the professor checked his watch again. Wow, was that the time?! They had to be moving on. He turned around, sparing Slate a glance as he made his way back to the front of the room. “Excellent, Mr. Ryker,” he said, giving the Slytherin an approving nod as he passed.

Resuming his normal place at the front of the room, Gaston addressed the class, “Time is up! If you haven’t finished, you’ll have a chance to catch up later, but we have another spell to learn first…” He gave the students a moment or two to refocus their attention on him before continuing, “There’s a reason I asked you to leave the deep gashes alone; this is because the spell we’ll use to treat them is much more difficult than the two we’ve practiced so far. That spell is…”

With a wave of his wand, the writing on the blackboard vanished, all except the spell at the top of the list made earlier. “Vulnera Sanentur. As Daisy said earlier, this spell is used to treat large wounds. It was invented by Severus Snape, though it didn’t become widely used for until many years after its invention. This spell is the only known countercurse to Sectumsempra…” As he talked, the following words appeared on the backboard behind him:

Quote:

Vulnera Sanentur - heals large wounds

Invented by Severus Snape
Only countercurse to Sectumsempra

“Its effects are threefold. Who can name one of them?” Gaston finished, looking out at the class for hands to go in the air.
