Lisa has been lost in her thoughts this morning, trying to figure out just how to get the potion that she had read about to work. The first two iterations HADNT worked and it was INCREDIBLY frustrating so what was she doing WRONG?!? Ugh… she tapped her fingers lightly on the desk as she looked at her notebook. As soon as class started, she huffed and closed her potions notebook. She’d come back to that.

So she tried to pay the best attention that she could to Charms class but her thoughts kept carrying her back to that problem. Fortunately her peers’ answers had kickstarted her imagination in a different direction and it became much easier to find focus once more. Plus the spell was VERY interesting. Maybe she could become like Spider-Man and walk on walls??? The possibilities of this application were endless in her mind.

She jotted down a few notes on the pronunciation and wand movement in her notebook.

Pronunciation: Digiti Viscosi. Dig-iti Vi-scosi.
Wand movement: double tap on each foot after saying the incantation.

“Dig-iti. Vi-scosi. Dig-iti. Vi-scosi. Dig-iti. Vi-scosi,” she repeated over and over again until it sounded just as the Professor had pronounced it. The wand movement made sense so that was easy enough. Now she just had to figure out how to do the activity. When one of the swings opened, she headed over to it and took a seat. With her wand, she cast the charm. “Digiti Viscosi!” Then she began pumping her legs. She always hated not having a push when she started swinging because that would have helped her go quicker. She wondered if there was a spell that made her go faster? That would be useful right now so she could build momentum. The incantation would have to be something like momentum? But faster? Maybe citius?
