As they raised their wand, however, they caught a glimpse of someone out of the corner of their eye. Another second year who had previously found it impossible to keep her mouth shut. At least, it seemed, until now, though it was doubtful she'd keep that up.

Nem watched her for a moment, attempting to cast on a beanbag. Well, attempting was not exactly the word. The attempt was lacklustre, there wasn't much in it. So Nem, most helpful of all students ever, raised their wand without moving from where they stood, and aimed it at the beanbag as well. "Bombarda."

It went more with a FLOMP than with a bang, its innards spraying everywhere in a reaction not unlike a volcanic eruption. "Hey, you. Kinsay James," Nem said, to get her attention. Yeah. Yeah. You. "It won't work if you're not trying. Make sure you do what he said, and practice on the tech as well." Helping, see? Yes, yes, very helpful. Wouldn't want anyone to get in trouble for swerving the major equipment.

To emphasise the point, Nem turned back to the arcade game they'd lined up. The first failed nonverbal had left a lingering, bitter taste, so they didn't attempt another one for this demonstration. Just raised their wand at the arcade game, repeated the triangular movement, and spoke another assertive, "Bombarda."

Boom. Peace out, Pac-Man.
O_________O

Kinsay James absolutely SHRIEKED in the face of the suddenly-exploding beanbag and immediately ducked for cover. That's what you were supposed to do when beanbag innards went flying in every which way. Safety first, obviously.

If only she could stay ducked like this forever. Unfortunately, if she did that she might find herself in--HUH?! Having heard her name, Kinsay popped her head up in a way such that she resembled a deer caught in wandlight. It only took her a few seconds to realize that it had only been another student calling her out and not their scary new headmaster, but those few seconds of not knowing were filled with enough fear to get the point across.

And even though she tried to listen to the (cute) older student, Kizzy was hesitant to do as told. So quietly and from her safe distance, Kinz watched he blow up one of the arcade games. It made her wince and her whole stomach felt like it was doing cartwheels (not in the good way though).... Um.

She stayed still for a moment longer before deciding to inch her way towards the (cute) Slytherin. "Can you help me?" Despite not wanting to admit it, Kinsay James was not very good at magic. Apparently that's what happens when you have a Professor who takes away your wand for the first week of classes and then doesn't teach you any spells in your first, formative year of magic. Plus. She still felt guilty about blowing anything up after the whole screaming dummies scenario from before. And maybe she could latch on to the older Slytherin and find comfort in his arms? Nem was good with spells, clearly. So he could keep her safe!

She practiced her cutest most PLEADING, kicked cruppy look. Please?
