Emma felt immense pride when Professor Feirgrund praised her questions. She waited as the Professor introduced the instructions which involved food, as was to be predicted. There was all sorts of foods present and as he'd hinted at the start of the lesson, it really did all smell delicious. Had he forewarned them to come to class hungry today? She couldn't really recall but this would definitely spoil her dinner. Thinking back to what food she really didn't like - anchovies - Emma decided why not try some fish but maybe sweeten it instead? Just in case it was awful, she decidedly put some chicken nuggets and chips on her plate as well.
She wasn't sure about using the flavor charms on some of the desserts, although a spicy ice cream sounded intriguing. Perhaps she'd work on that after she tried out some main food items. "Magimus," she said, drawing a circle over the fish. "Condio creo" was a U-shape over the chicken. And lastly, "Saldus" she said, making an 'M' over the chips. All three flavor charms, time to sample.
Taking a forkful of the fish, her eyes widened as instead of the usual disgust of fishiness meeting her taste buds she found a rather delightful sweetness similar to that of honeydukes chocolates. Okay success number one. Time for a chip. Huh, that was weird, it didn't taste any saltier than normal? She perused the charm incantation a moment, trying to recall what she'd said. Had she said it incorrectly? She couldn't remember, but for now she just made note to attempt that again later. Time to try the chicken.
Immediately, her hand made a fist as she coughed from the spice. A little too intense there. Yea perhaps that one too she needed some more practice on intention since she went too much. But it seemed today's class was drawing to a close. Fortunately even if she didn't take these leftovers, they had food every day in the Great Hall that she could easily turn into practice sessions on these flavor charms. Who knew what the OWL exams would hold in terms of charms knowledge and these seemed quite practical.
She looked over to Nyle, her younger housemate, as he was leaving and had to smile as he made a punny in his departure. No she hadn't noticed his failure, but she would be more than happy to help him if he asked. At least with the sweetening charm; the other two charms she needed to practice more herself. In keeping with the pun spirit, because she had one when she came in so may as well leave with one, "Thanks for a saucy good time, Professor." She made a nod at the house elves. "And thank you all too!"
