 Rhibear ~ Madam Solo ~ Dark Brooding Girl ~ Accio Jedi ~ Gryffinclaw ~ Just a doll
Tina had just raised her wand to conjure another cloud when Professor Darlington vanished everyone's clouds. Oh well, she could always practice again on her own time, and she was eager to see what they were doing next. As the lesson moved on, something the professor said gave her an idea. If visualization and determination were key, maybe she could create a cloud in a specific shape just by visualizing it. That would be fun... she was definitely going to try that later!
Somehow Tina had a hunch that rainclouds were going to be the next topic, even before Professor Darlington's instructions to get a rain mac. She didn't think she'd need a mac - she could always just use the impervius charm on her uniform - but she walked toward the clothing rack more for the sake of following directions than anything else. Eyes scanning the rack, Tina doubted there would be enough to go around. If that turned out to be the case, she decided she would give hers to a younger student, but for now she picked up a mac she thought would more or less fit her. She thought wrong! It was too short at the arms and too wide in the middle, but it would have to do!
Tina rejoined the group, carefully considering the question.
Her first thought was herbologists cultivating plants, but that had already been said and she didn't want to repeat answers. Another idea came to her, but she thought it was too far-fetched to voice out loud. She was afraid of looking dumb, but she didn't want Professor Darlington to think she wasn't trying, especially since she'd been too flustered by all that lava nonsense to answer the last question! She tentatively raised her hand and waited to be called on. "Weather spells could be useful in quidditch, " she said. "You could conjure rain or wind for players to practice flying in adverse conditions, or say a dangerous storm started in the middle of a game, you could use a weather modification spell to stop it so the game could continue as planned." Was that a bad answer? Probably... she was going to stop talking now.
