Tina nodded, smiling slightly at the professor's greeting. "Yes, I'm quite well, thank you, Professor," she replied. It wasn't exactly a lie. She was doing as well as possible, given the strange circumstances.

Tina's attention shifted from the assortment of objects on her desk to the professor as the lesson began. She listened intently, jotting down a few notes. So reversion… did that mean the goblet, roll, and newspaper had started out as a different object and been transfigured into their their current state? Was it going to be their task to change them back? And if so, that didn't quite explain the roll. Tina could understand the goblet and paper being transfigured, but wouldn't Gamp's Law of Elemental Transfiguration prevent transfiguring an object into a roll? Perhaps she was looking at it all wrong… Maybe instead of untransfiguring, there was a reversion spell to deconstruct the items into their most basic components?

Tina considered the professor's question carefully. The first scenario that popped into her mind was using reversion to fix an incomplete or incorrectly cast spell, but that had already been said. Ever the overachiever, Tina didn't want to piggyback off of anyone else's answer. She had to come up with one of her own, but what? All her other ideas seemed too far-fetched to voice. Her mind hopped from one thing to another, frantically searching for a good answer. Reversion… incomplete transfiguration… human transfiguration.

Tina suddenly remembered a story her guardian told her about the 1926 capture of Gellert Grindelwald… how he'd used transfiguration to disguise himself as Percival Graves. That was it! How could she have forgotten? Every kid at Chateau Croyance knew that story! Her hand went up. “Couldn't reversion be used to reveal the true identity of someone using transfiguration as a disguise?” she said.
