Mary thought for some time and asked the Professor. 'Professor, what is the Repairing Spell?How do you do the spell, Profesor?' She asked, looking at the professor. |

Ryan grinned at the girl called Cressida. It was impossible for her, with a sunny nature and a love for fun, to stay angry for long.
'I'm Ryan Carter,' she said. 'Resident Metmorphmagus and incredibly annoying troublemaker'.

"I think I guessed the last part!" Smiled Cressida.
"Cressida Lupin, generally vauge and quite a daydreaming bookster... Plus, I do like pranking my friends, so I do hope you don't have a flowerpot or something on your head by the end of today."
Cressida quickly decided that telling Ryan what she really was, was... not a good idea to say the least.

'An eye for an eye, my friend,' Ryan began. 'Who cares if it makes the whole world blind? If you prank me, I prank you!'.
Her hair was now bright blue again, and seemed to be sending out tiny fireworks.
'I keep trying to stop it from doing that,' Ryan mused. 'Last time, it set my hair on fire....'.

'Cool! Did you inherit it from anyone, or....I dunno, get it naturally like me?' Ryan asked, taking an interest in this quiet girl. 'Dad always told me Mum was a Muggle, but she wasn't, otherwise she wouldn't have died in....a Potions - accident. I'm halfblood, so Mum must've been Muggleborn,'. Ryan refrained from saying the words "I killed her". 'And Dad was a pure blood, but he died too. A couple of weeks ago, actually'.
Emotion constricted her voice.

Another thought came to her and she asked, "I notice a lot of spells ask for the swish and flick movement, why is that?" "If you pronounce it differently you could be doing a completly different spell! You could be trying to vanish a snail and end up covered in slime!"
Danni thought for a moment, "As for swishing and flicking, I believe it is because its the easiest wand movement to do and remember." Quote:

And do you have to have a wand to perform the spell each time you transfigure?" Danni smiled, "As I said last term when we studied them, I will not give out the spells required to become and Anamagi due to the fact that some students would probably attempt to do them on thier own, which is very dangerous. And no, you dont need a wand every time." Danni set her wand on her desk, transformed into her boat-billed heron, flew around the room once, landd, and transformed back. "Next question please?"

"Ma'am. How is the proper way to perform the switching spell?" Unfortunately, that lesson had been the one where his mind wasn't all there. Sure, he could read how to do it, but he preferred hearing it instead. The incantation is Fabricia then the item you wish to turn something into, 'Fabricia quill'." Danni pointed her wand at one of the roses and it turned into a quill. Quote:

"Professor," Diabolica asked, raising her hand. "How do you create a proper illusion? Like, one that looks completly real, with no way to tell it isn't there without trying to touch it?" "With an well done illusion spell m'dear." Danni answered with a wink. Quote:

Jacqui sighed and thought as hard as she could about what a useful question could be.
Quite suddenly, Jacqui remembered something she read in a rather large book once called Untransfiguration, but the book never actually said how to do this. She raised a slightly shaky and said to the teacher, "Professor, I'm sure your aware of Untransfiguration - the act of returning something back to it's original form. How exactly do you do this? What's the incantation?" "There are different incantations for different things. Sometimes Finite works though. 'Finite'" she said jabbing her wand at the transfigured quill and it quickly returned to a rose.
Glaring at the talking students Danni said, "10 points from Ravenclaw, 5 from Hufflepuff and 5 from Gryffindor. As I said before, no chatting. And Miss Quillo, it would do you well to remember the point of this class is to get all your questions out, so I recomend you stop harrassing people about how many questions they've asked."

Christian nodded his head. He watched her preform the spell while writing down what she was saying without looking at the notebook. Fabrica...and then whatever you want to change it in to.
"Got it! Thanks Miss." He smiled. He flipped through his book, trying to find something else he didn't get.

Ryan blushed slightly, and turned away from Cressida with a rogueish grin. She didn't mind losing house points, as long as she could manage to build them up later on, something she intended to do....just not now.
'So...how do people create spells?' Ryan asked interestedly. She had no intention of doing so, she would leave logical-sounding stuff like that to the Ravenclaws, she just wondered how it was done.

Ari shook her head in shame, they were never goingto catch up now if people kept talking, this was why she didn't like her house. She belonged in Gryffindor she knew it, yet no the Hat had to place her here.
Suddenly she thought of something. "Professor, how do you make an object speka? I know there's a spell that makes the Sorting hat speak but I can';t seem to find it." she asked a smile on her face.

Aha, Ryan thought. Years of dedication involves patience. Soooo not my forte.
'When you cast a spell, is pronounciation important? I mean, could it have a complete other meaning if you get one letter off?' she asked.

"I hve a question about untransfiguring something. First, is there a way to tell if something has been transfigured? And if so how would you untransfigure it?" she asked polietly.

Ryan yawned widely. She had barely been sleeping, which was half the reason she wasn't paying much attention. The other half of the reason was that she was a restless twelve year old with a short attention span, but that really didn't matter.
'What does Priori Incantatem do?' she asked, giving a shuddering yawn as she did so.

Ari blushed realizing she hd been lost in her own little world before and missed the answer before. Nodding she smiled and said "Thank you professor." now she just be able to find her missing stuff back home. Of course someoene else would have to untransfigure it for her but now she would at least know what to look for.
Writing the last part down, she found herselff yawning and loked over, seeing the girl who had been rude to her before yawning. Yawns are contagoues she found herself thinking with a shake of the head as she continued writing.

Ryan nodded, before resting her head on her folded arms. Maybe she'd be able to sneak a few minutes of sleep? Then again, she might end up losing yet more house points, something she didn't really want to do.
She then remembered a question she had carried with her since the start of term, and although she had no wish of using the answer, she still wondered what the answer might be.
'Can you like...stop being a Parseltongue, or a Lycan, or a M-M-Metamorphmagus?' Ryan yawned, rubbing at her tired eyes with her jumper sleeve.

"Oh..." Began Cressida, before the Professor took away some house points for chatting; and Cressida shut up quickly to listen.
I'll leave Ryan a note when I leave... Cressida decided. Then I can talk to her without losing house points...
Cressida quickly put her hand up and asked polietly. "Professor, can you transfigure objects to life and vice versa whilst leaving the being at significant intelligence?"

She suprised herself, being able to come out of her shell and ask the professor these questions so openly, rather than being shy and hesitating to speak up.

Mary looked above from her text. 'Professor, what are the five exceptions of Glamp's Law of Elemental Tarnsfiguration?' she asked, looking at the Professor.
ooc: I'm not sure if I should ask it like this, but I asked a question too in the above post.Thank you.

Cressida looked down at her scrap notebook, and scribbled a note saying:
Uhm, hi, Ryan.
Just saying that I'm going to the, uh, Wall... And if you wanna join me... I'll be there! LOL. Anyway, I'll leave this on my desk when I leave.
See ya, Cressida.
Cressida packed up her books and quill and ink, and considered staying till her question was answered.
Oh well. She thought. I'll find out in the Library sometime. There must be a book about it, and I'm seriously hungry right now, so I really don't wanna stay longer.
Standing up, and tapping Ryan silently and *accidentally*, on the shoulder; Cressida left the note on the desk and addressed the Professor. "Please excuse me Professor, but I really must get going." And, with a small nod, Cressida left via the door.

Marco looked up from the desk.
"Professor, how might I make someone's head grow exceedingly large? You know in case I wanted to. Not that I do right now," he asked, "Or how might I transfigure someone into a notepad, to remind them to do things?"

Ryan read the note that Cressida had left her, then heard the question that Slytherin Quidditch captain had asked. A notebook? Of all the strange things that you could Transfigure someone into, he would choose a notebook?
Making a sound that was something between a laugh and a yawn, Ryan rested her head on her arms and closed her eyes.
