Rhibear ~ Madam Solo ~ Dark Brooding Girl ~ Accio Jedi ~ Gryffinclaw ~ Just a doll Tina almost laughed at the tattoo conversation taking place between Professor Dopple and one of her housemates (Indigo). So Dopple had tattoos removed at some point… that was surprising! Tina tried to imagine a much younger version of the ghostly professor sporting tattoos. It was a bit funny to think about! Dopple didn't seem the tattoo type at all!
Tina's amusement quickly turned to embarrassment at her own answer. Yes, Professor, she knew she could charm her clothes to be longer (and had done just that on a number of occasions). The point she was trying to make was that it was annoying to have to do that, especially during the summer when she had to ask someone to charm her clothes for her, as she was still underage and technically not allowed to use magic outside of school. She hated asking people for help! Never mind… she reminded herself that the professor was probably just trying to be nice. Okay, moving on…
So they were keeping with the theme of appearances for the next question. Did that mean they would be learning some charm to enhance one's appearance? Tina hoped so! Otherwise, this conversation amounted to nothing but unrelated nonsense! At least this question was a bit easier than the first. She could think of plenty of things people used to enhance their beauty. How was she going to pick just one when her mind was swirling with possible answers.
In the end she went with the beauty enhancement she was most familiar with using. She raised her hand and waited to be called on. “What about nail art, Professor?” she said, showing her own brightly painted nails as an example. “Some people -” Herself included. “- use nail polish to paint colors or designs on their nails, which one can argue enhances their beauty by making them more colorful.” Though the extent to which it counted as a beauty enhancement was debatable, she hoped it was an acceptable answer nonetheless.
