Yeah I broke that mirror, so what? ll NOT backward ll Official Gryfferin ll Lemon's favourite Jessa was set to stand and begin the exercise but paused halfway up to raise a brow at the Astronomy man. It.....hadn't at all been necessary to go barking orders. While Hogwarts had indeed become more militant, it still wasn't trying to raise an army. Marchand's instructions had been enough. Perhaps the man--and indeed some of his colleagues needed to take a few pages from Noble's....and she hated to say it....but Fletcher's and Scrimgeour's books. The men were strict without trying to be boisterous drill sergeants excuding unnecessary amounts of testosterone and masculine aggression. Y'know, the stuff that were intimidating for all the wrong reasons.
The Head Girl looked the man over for a moment before drawing her wand and in one smooth motion performing the wand movement. He was new here. He didn't know she'd already long since completed the Hogwarts syllabus. Taking her NEWTS privately during the summer that just passed, she felt all the more confident in her knowledge and magic.
Practising was literally to humour Marchand so he wouldn't have an absolute heart attack about the Head Girl being lazy or defiant.
Over and over she performed the wand movement, barely mumbling the incantation below her breath. What was the point? She would cast non-verbally anyway.
