It was something Nina Castillo never had an issue with. Concentrating on one task at a time came rather easily to the young girl, despite her constant analyzation over thoughts and patterns. She attributed her ease of concentration to maturity. That's why Celine and Eloise had the attention spans of goldfish. However in this moment, the harder she worked to concentrate on the task, the more difficult the task seemed to be.
Especially because Eloise kept whispering in her ear every time Professor Barlow turned around. The fourth year tried very hard not to react, but it was very difficult. Her words sent a shiver down Nina's entire body. Her only saving grace was the fact that Eloise wasn't being loud enough for the rest of the class to hear. But still. The words. Hearing both Calyx and Navid's names. Nina's blood was starting to boil.
She picked up her jewelry box and walked over to the first station almost robotically. Eloise was getting to her. She may have been physically present, but mentally... Nina was long checked out. She had decided against practicing the incantation and movement at her desk, as she was ready to move at the first opportunity. So she began practicing when she reached the first work station instead. "Mutatis Mutandi... Mutatis Mutandi... Mutatis Mutandi," her voice lacked any real sense of conviction and she absently moved her wand before giving it a flick, repeating the movement a few times without really focusing.
She looked at her box, and then at the feathers before giving her wand a flick, "Mutatis Mutandi." Unsurprisingly, the spell had yielded no result whatsoever.
