SPOILER!!: Professor June is so helpful

Mamie was relieved that the professor came to help her--and another first year, too--before she had to wave her arm around too much. She held the stem as the professor indicated, watching closely as she cast the spell. Diffindo, Mamie repeated in her head. Diffindo, diffindo, diffindo. She would try not to forget that one, as it appeared quite useful. She wondered if it could be used to slice bread or tomatoes or tomatoes. "Thank you professor!" Mamie chirped. Though she supposed Professor Flamsteed was just doing her job.

She glanced nervously around at all the little ~~potatoheads~~ gnomes running around. They seemed to not be coming too near her, so she decided to attempt the wolfsbane cutting herself. She grabbed the stem and pointed her wand at the top of the root. You can do it, Mamie, Mamie thought to herself. Diffindo diffindo diffindo.

After the brief mental pep talk, Mamie cleared her throat and flicked her wrist like Flamsteed had shown them. "Diffindo!" she said loudly. Then, she held the wolfsbane aloft proudly as it came away from the root. "I did it!" she shouted. True, the cut was sort of jagged and not as neat as the professors, but still! She had learned a new spell!

Now what were they supposed to do? Levitate it into a pile? She was about 80% sure she could levitate it successfully. Setting the wolfsbane on the ground, Mamie pointed her wand again. "Wingardium Leviosa!" she said, swishing and flicking her wand the way the spell demanded. The wolfsbane hovered above the ground. Mamie looked around. She was a little worried about getting caught in the gnome commotion on her way to wherever she was supposed to put the wolfsbane. Mayyybe she should just stay here with her floating wolfsbane? Where was that pile anyway?

O_O AWAKE! SPOILER!!: Professor June is so helpful Quote: Originally Posted by Samia June was feeling so happy seeing them all work. It was also official that the ones helping others were her favourite. It was all so wholesome and nice. When the elder Miss James spoke up, June nodded, *“Excellent idea, why don’t you all gather up the severed roots by -- that* tree” she pointed - smiling at her little, diligent, awesome workers. Hearing Miss Turov in need, June was making her way over to her when Miss Cambridge spoke up as well, “Why don’t you two do this with me” she offered and settled down next to a plant, “Now, Miss Turov, hold the stem” she instructed and retrieved her wand. “It’s all in the flick of your wrist and how good you aim” she told the girls, and then cast the spell: “Diffindo!” “Easy enough? Miss Cambridge - now you try — ” How can anything be so simple though? Because suddenly there were little potato heads everywhere! Watching the gnomes ATTACK, June stood there a moment completely stunned. What in the world? But soon she found herself sighing, because you know what June was actually worried about? What would Airey Flamsteed think of this mess of a class? Awful, just awful - she felt like such a failure at this point. “No, Miss Cambridge, we cannot keep one” It didn’t look like they wanted to be kept either “But yes, Miss Quartermaine, it will most definitely kill them if they grabbed one by the roots” she confirmed as she waved her wand to stun one who was running - only to be of no use as Miss Jenovick knocked one back instead. Ouch. “Incarcerous” she waved her wand right after, immediately binding the confused looking gnome on the ground. “Good work, Miss Jenovick” Now where were the others? OOC:** Awesome work, you guys :3 Class will be ending soon in about 14 - 16 hours. Let's wrap things up! <3 Mamie was relieved that the professor came to help her--and another first year, too--before she had to wave her arm around too much.
