Maybe someone else had lost their temper or it was a prank or something. Could be, yeah?

Primarily focused on Holly still, Cameron used his wand to Accio them both a rain mac. He had not intentions of getting caught off-guard by some bad weather someone else had cast. They were in Scotland after all, they had enough rain as it is. About to pull back and suggest they team up, Cameron heard the professor's words, telling Holly to release him. What?! "She's upset." He said, narrowing his eyes at Professor Darlington. Did she not have any sense of compassion?!

Nonetheless, he did as he was told and let go of Holly, holding out the rain mac to her before putting one on himself. Right. Now, the clouds. "Nubecula!" He cast at the sky before looking to his sister again. "Do you think you can do this with me?" Cam asked softly, CLEARLY worried about her current state of mind.

Some of them were getting stuck in, some of them were still on the hunt for a partner. “If you can’t find someone to work with, just join in with anyone. I’m glad to see that the majority of you have good manners but if this were a real dueling scenario many of you would be a lost cause.” Just being honest.

Especially that one over there. The little fire starter.

“Miss Tamesis, please release your brother immediately and get to work or else you can be partnered with me.” And that wouldn’t end well for the second year at all.

“Everyone else, keep at it! I expect you all to have mastered this spell by the end of the lesson.”
It wasn’t too much to ask. “If you haven’t, you can expect extra homework on the importance of concentration while conjuring.”


OOC: Thanks for playing along everyone. Just a reminder that you’ve got until Thursday 24th January, 6pm EST-ish to keep at it. Like Joyce said, if you can’t find a partner, don’t worry, just join in with anyone.


If Cameron didn’t know and Professor Darlington said she had started the fire and she was sure she hadn’t… Who was right?

Sniffing a little as she tried not to get upset and cry, Holly focused on Cameron instead. That was safer. Much safer.

Oh. Right. They’d need one of those jacket things. … What were they even supposed to be doing? She hadn’t been listening…. Annnnd she was also pretty sure she was going to end up in detention or loosing points by the end of this lesson.

Blinking up at her brother, from where she was still hugging him, she took a step backwards. She was now sure that Professor Darlington really didn’t like her. Looking at her feet instead of around the class, she rolled her wand between her fingers before she took the jacket Cameron was giving her. Thumbing the material she contemplated walking out, after all she had only mucked everything up so far… but that wouldn’t get her anywhere and Cameron would help her.

At least Professor Darlington had gotten that part right, Cam would always help her.

Taking a deep breath, she nodded and raised her wand. Okay, focus on wispy clouds. Focus. Focus on how Cameron is saying it, and copy him. “Nubecula...” Soft, floaty wisps left her wand, though they were nothing like she needed - they were also better than anything she had managed so far. Trying again and again and again - she got her cloud to form on the fifth time with encouragement from her brother.

Wasn’t he the best person ever?
