He liked the natural growing process better.. watching the seeds you've planted and cared for grow all by themselves.
Of course, he didn't say any of this out loud! Nope, he drew his wand and practised on the flame lillies he'd planted in demonstration.
Wand work wasn't his strongest subject.. he'd always been gifted with the more hands on subjects like Care of Magical Creatures.
He wasn't expecting to be a TOTAL failure though.
...
He muttered the incantation and imitated Lexi's wand movements.. and to his horror, his plant pot exploded with a loud CRACK!!, showering him and anyone in a 2 meter radius with soil.
"Oops."
Cue the burning ears.
...

What. In the. Name.
Of Merlin?!?!
It was FLETCHER! It had to be! Somehow, that boy was always standing around nearby, wand in hand, when a catastrophe struck. Lexi spun around, her eyes scanning the crowd for the Hufflepuff boy.
...and that's when she saw it. Or, saw him rather.
Sage. Sage had been the culprit?! Sage? As in...Sage Dodson?! Lexi turned to him, a blank expression on her face, and then she giggled lightheartedly.
She had soil everywhere, even on her face. She picked a piece off and jokingly threw it at him.

She didn't know that those crumbs were from a chocolate frog he'd eaten just before the lesson. HEHEHE.
"...ewww," she mumbled, now thinking different thoughts about the soil all over her face...and arms...and clothes. Dung!
Dung! All over her!

Better than getting himself, amiright?
Once the water had stopped, Alex threw his hand into the air and pouted slightly. "Teeeeeeeeacherrrrrr! My wand is being a goober-head."
One teacher... ANY teacher. Preferably Carlton 'cause the other one... well... he'd kinda cracked his own pot. But yeah, beggars can't be choosers, right?
...and water, too, apparently. Lexi wiped a hand across her face and spit a bit of water out her mouth. Well, at least she was no longer covered in dung! Turning toward Alex, Lexi just laughed.
"Apparently, a lot of wands are acting like...goober-heads. Either that, or we've all gone mad," she remarked.

His wand which gave him away by turning into some kind of sprinkler in midair, just... revolving and spraying.
"... SEE!"
A wand-sprinkler? Seriously? The class was in chaos, and...it was oddly all a result of whatever it was Sage had been trying to do. She glanced back over at him and giggled again. She honestly couldn't be angry with him! His poor ears were already burning bright red, just like they always did when he got embarrassed.
====================
Soil...water...DUNG...all of it was just too much. Hilarious, but a bit too much for one class period! If Tate walked by now, he'd likely ask Lexi and Sage for a
word in his office later on. So as amusing as class was, Lexi really needed to get the student's attention.
Raising her wand into the air, she muttered a spell, and...
POW! POW! BOOM!
Her wand released a few loud firework sounds
(OOC: No fireworks, just sounds).
"Attention!" she called out.
...and now that she had their attention, she said,
"We are dirty...we are wet...we have dung all over us," she said, her eyes scanning the room.
"...and this needs to be fixed immediately. On the count of three, raise your wand into the crowd of students and cast Aguamenti. Ready?! One, two...THREE!"
...and on that note, she raised her point, pointed it into the crowd of students, and released a stream of water.
