You can do i..." he began, but trailed off, his fingers slacking behind his back.
She couldn't do it. Trying not to let his face fall, Adam realised he should've guessed. "Yeah, we tried that," he said, motioning to the paste covered burn on his face. Result of Lori's failed attempt at 'Reparo'. Not that it was her fault. She hadn't known that it wouldnt work.
"I think I heard something about that, yeah..." Adam said with a shrug, running his hand through his hair. "I'll do that. Write to Olivanders..." Yeah, he would. He'd go and find Lori now, and then go to the Owlery, and send it to the wand shop.
"But thanks Miss," he finished. Standing up from the edge of the bed. "And thanks for the advice and everything."
When Adam motioned towards the burned area of his face, realization dawned on Gabriella. Ahh, so
that was what happened! She considered that scenario for a moment while she continued to study Adam's face. When he spoke again, her eyes flickered away.
"I see," she muttered.
"It's too bad wands aren't easily mended, or I'd have done that for you in a heartbeat."
It was amazing how bones and deep gashes could be mended with just a few swish and flicks, yet nothing could be done for a wand---a piece of
wood. A
magical piece of wood, though, and that was the cause of it being so difficult to mend.
"You're very welcome. Have a good day," she added.
