No, it was no good. Abra couldn't remember, not for the life of him. Or, well, he could remember, but it was only the latter instructions that were coming to him clearly. The earlier ones were all fuzzy and he couldn't think of what order they came in.
So, naturally, he did the only sensible thing and asked the professor to repeat himself please took a peek at what everyone else was doing. What harm could there be? It wasn't like potions where copying someone else and then accidentally doing things in the wrong order would end in an exploding cauldron. Not... not that Abra... well... yes, that had actually happened.
Those around him were laying their stones down on the ground, which of course jogged Abra's memory about the instruction regarding a flat surface, so he did that too. Was it now that he was supposed to stick the, erm... well, the stick, to the rock? Wait. People were using Diffindo. Right, yes. Duh.
Abra raised his own wand to point at one end of his own stick, cast, "Diffindo," and lopped the end of it off. It was supposed to be straight, yes? He remembered that part. And now they had to stick it to the rock. Yes, yes, it was all rushing back to him.
He held the stick upright, flat end down, right on the middle of the rock. Raising his wand yet again, he cast not one, but multiple sticking charms to make sure it stayed stuck fast. "Adhaero. Adhaero. ....... Adhaero."
