Yeah I broke that mirror, so what? ll NOT backward ll Official Gryfferin ll Lemon's favourite

Why didn't he want her casting a whole bunch of shield charms? It should have been obvious, even without him giving an answer. In fact, there were a few obvious answers he could've given--y'know, if his tongue wasn't otherwise in danger of babbling away incoherently. No use responding when she wouldn't be able to undersatand.

Remove the charm you say?

But then he may be inclined to return to verbal spells and those were far less useful against someone so keen to continue shielding like it was the only spell he'd ever taught her. It was a disappointing display, to say the least. If all she did was hide behind a shield, she was much less likely to be showing off her repertoire. He wanted to see. He wanted to know that her spellwork was coming along well.

He preferred the times when she showed tact and her magical prowess.

To demonstrate as much, Malachi silently cast a protego maxima.

The Headmaster stood behind the shield watching it absorb each round of "expelliarmus" the young girl had attempted. Even after the last, it remained firm and impassable. And there he waited...and waited....and waited.

She would get the picture soon enough.
