 Which came first, the phoenix or the flame?
Brandon took very very very very detailed and organized notes about what they were doing. Jude guessed one of the lesson spells, which impressed Brandon. Jude was so smart. And nice. Brandon thought he was a great role model. "I will." He wouldn't really nudge him, but he would keep the offer of help in mind. And maybe watch the older Hufflepuff to mimic his spellwork(because seventh years were good at those things).
Brandon set his pipe cleaners and buttons aside in very neat groups, bringing the cardboard pieces in front of him. "Tem-ran ma-de-ra," he whispered, reviewing his notes on the spell. "horizontal line." When he thought he was ready, he tried the spell. "Temran Madera? Temran Madera!" It definitely didn't work. Frowning, Brandon tried again, pretending that the cardboard was stubborn and he had to order it to transfigure. "Temran Madera." That was more like it. He grinned, getting to work on the rest of the cardboard. |
