Usually it would took Cassia a lot of time to get out of bed. But since the bed was now a sleeping bag on the floor, Cassia was so grateful for the sun to rise though she was pretty sure the sun was taking long just to tease her. So after splashing her face with water and eating a couple pieces of candy she took her bag and left the CROWDED great hall. She knew she had to practice the spells they learnt at the DADA lesson. She actually thought of practicing them on the girl who was snoring next to her last night. But she wasn't sure if she would earn points for that. She was most likely to lose points. Ehh.
The second year dragged herself and walked absent-mindedly until she found herself in the first floor corridor. Without thinking she tossed the bag aside after retrieving her notebook. After Plopping her small body on the floor she opened the notebook. What was the incantation again? Petrificus Digitirus. Did it get harder over the week?Cassia couldn't recall.
She started making random U shapes in the air for some time that she forgot what she was doing. Why was she on the floor and doing this? Oh yeah practicing. And just when she was going to continue practicing, something cute caught her attention. Not the Head Girl near her of course..but her cats. Automatically the twelve-years old headed towards them and as she neared them she heard what the older girl was saying.
Cassia gasped! "You can't do the spells on them!" And she crouched near the cats scratching them with both hands. Well, the girl Louisa turned out to be aware of this. Then turning to the girl again, "Mind if I practiced on your fingers, Luoisa?" She asked fixing the best innocent look she could manage. With the poppy eyes and all. The older girl must be prevented from hurting the cats or even JOKING about it.
The last thing Louisa needed right now was a kid sympathizing with her pets, and more importantly to find out how feeble her curses and jinxes actually are. She tapped the tip of her wand on her chin as Cassia played a bit with her cats, who not so surprisingly seemed to like the little kid. Viola even licked the girl's shoe a couple of time. That's love from first sight for sure. "Uhh.." The Ravenclaw looked down at her fingers, they'd suffered last term and now... well, they got used to those jinxes, the ones they were going to practice today weren't as bad after all. "Okay. I'll go easy on you." Not that she could go hard on the little girl.
Leaving her spot by the wall Louisa put down her book and stood in front of the Slytherin. "Let's practice the incantation first without the wands. Ready?" She generously gave her two seconds to prepare her mind. "Go! Petrificus... Digitirus. Petrificus... Digitirus. Petrificus... Digitirus..." Cassia better be repeating those words with Louisa, the head girl's fingers were too precious to be permanently corrupted.

You know when they say that Ravenclaws are smart and all. Well, not always that is true because it wasn't wise to agree letting a second-year slytherin girl practice spells on your fingers. Well, Cassia surely wasn't going to point that out because she wasn't keen on practicing on her own fingers again. WAIT! Did the older girl say she would go easy on Cassia! She doesn't remember telling Louisa that she could practice on her fingers. Unless it was obvious. Hmm…Well, at least Cassia was not worried about her fingers. The Head Girl surely knew this spell by heart.
After scratching the cute little kittens under their necks one last time ,Cassia rose to her feet and glanced down at her notebook. Before her eyes found the incantation Louisa was already uttering it. It seemed the notebook was not needed. Cassia dropped it to the floor and joined the Head Girl. " Petrificus... Digitirus.." she said. " Peeetriiifiiicuuuuus... Diigitiiruus!" She repeated stretching her mouth in all directions on every letter. Professor Romanos said to say it clearly. Then a couple of swifts in the air foloowed by different seizes of Us shapes in the air too.
Cassia then stopped feeling bored already. "Okay it's enough." She decided. "You can start on me." She swallowed and stretched her left hand out slowly. "Don't make it long..and b-be careful." Cassia knew the feeling wasn't pleasant. And better let Louisa do it first. Just in case the eagle's fingers didn't work properly after Cassia tried on her.

The mouth was agape as the younger Slytherin repeated the incantation in different tones and emphasizing on different syllables and stretching the characters so the word was barely recognizable. "No need to stretch your mouth like that. People's fingers are at risk here." That brought numbness to her own. But no need to show the kid how TERRIFIED anxious she was, it was Louisa's turn first and she had time to relax more before Cassia practiced on her fingers. "Okay. I'll be careful, don't worry. I'll graduate soon so I'm practically an adult." FAKE!BEAM.
She held the girl's left hand with her own, resting their palms against each others and concentrated very hard on the fingers, her wand not moving yet. The real challenge was to do the non-verbal incantation, Louisa's non-verbal's spells were as strong as the verbal ones but seeing as this was a curse, it would be more difficult. Petrificus Digitirus, she thought very hard before moving her wand in an upside down U motion and removing her hand from under Cassia's.

GULP.
"..."
SWALLOW.
"Well?"
The second-year's eyes were glued at her own hand that was above Louisa's. She wasn't worried about Louisa not being able to perform the spell. She just wasn't keen on experiencing the feeling of her stiffened fingers. The Slytherin braced herself waiting for the incantation to be spoken. But it didn't….Her fingers stiffened and felt like rock just like that! Cassia's eyes shot up towards Louisa's face when she realized that the older girl did the incantation non-verbally. The twelve-years old frown, "It would've been nice to warn me that you weren't speaking up." The Snake hissed at the Eagle. Cassia didn't like to be taken by surprise like that!
Turning her hand over in front of her face she saw that the effect was the same from in the class. Not like it'd be changed. But it meant it was preformed correctly both times. Yeah good job Head Gir.
Cassia reached for her wand with her right unharmed hand and with a flick she murmured, "Finite," Her hand was back to normal. She stretched her fingers just to make sure. Then she looked at Louisa and said. "Okay, my turn." Glancing at the Head Girl's loose hand by her side Cassia drew a 'U' shape in the air and uttered a bit loudly. "Petrificus... Digitirus!" See that's how to practice a jinx. Loudly!
"So…" she looked at Louisa's face searchingly.
ooc: Laila/Magical Soul & I arranged to let Cassia do the spell without waiting for Louisa to speak.

Well the girl talked, frowned and raised her hand. That was a good sign! Louisa didn't kill her. "It won't be a challenge if I had to do it loudly, but okay, I'll count to three next time. It doesn't hurt though, does it?" Nope, coz Cassia found time to demand warning. One of her cats, Cuddles, even came closer to snuggle with the snake's leg. She must've seen the frown and the passive energy and sensed something was wrong. See Louisa suspected Cuddles had some magic in her, she was a highly sensitive feline.
As soon as the second year announced her turn, Louisa closed her eyes tight and extended her left hand. She had to open her eyelids a bit though when the spell was cast. "Ow!" Her fingers bent and then jerked up stiff. It didn't hurt, but it didn't feel comfortable either. She wiggled her hand to show how the curse worked. "Good job." With a flick of her wand, the spell was broken and she could flex her hand easily.
"Okay, the next spell is Torparticus." She was still flexing and unflexing her hand. "Torp-ar-ticus.." This spell was harder and needed more focus, Louisa didn't want to LOSE her bones forever. "Torp-ar-ticus.." The wand movement was easy, a jab shouldn't be that hard to manage. "Tell me if you're ready to practice the wand movement." Louisa shooed her cat off the girl's leg but Cuddles of course didn't budge.

Cassia watched Louisa react like a HAWK. She didn't want to be responsible for any permanent damage caused by this spell. Fortunately, it seemed to be alright. Nothing that wasn't supposed to happen happened. And then Louisa ended it so all was good. Caught up in all this situation ,Cassia almost didn't notice one of the cats that had come snuggle her leg. The twelve-years old who was fond of cats grinned a huge toothy grin at the cute creature. How she missed her cats back at home.
So one spell done, now the second and last. She bent down to reach for the notebook laying on the floor but the Ravenclaw already reminded her of the incantation. But you know she was bending down so instead she caressed the kitten's ears. All cats loved this. Then Cassia glanced at Louisa who was practicing the incantation and she joined in with her. "Torparticus.." First fast try. "Tooo-rpaaartiiiicuuuus" Mmmm...Too much? Maybe again but genuinely. " Tor-par-ti-cus." Better. "Tor-par-ti-cus." Enough practicing this one was easier. Cassia always appreciated one-worded spells.
The Snake waved away Louisa, "Don't make her leave. I love cats..have two back at home. They're Rux and Fux." But she was stupid enough to buy an owl for school. An evil mean owl! Back to practice, wand movement It was an easy one.Cassia smiled proudly. "Oh this one is easier." She said knowingly. She jabbed her wand at nothing. Very easy. "Though this one make the fingers feel more uncomfortable." She shuddered remembering the feeling. "You know as it targets the joints." So not cool.
She continued to practice jabbing her wand randomly and repeating the incantation.

Ella smiled, nodding her head. "Yes, homework...how could I forget?" Giggle. "I have to admit I've been procrastinating a bit lately." Shrug. She blamed Quidditch, honestly, and Harvey, and just being too all over the place in her head.
At the mention of Hogsmeade, Ella smiled and chewed on her lip a little. "Oh yeah, I was there too actually." Grin. "That sounds like fun. I... Well their names sound really familiar actually so I'm sure I met them there." Nod. And Ella also wanted to ask about Logan but she wasn't sure if it was her place or not.
"I um...I saw Logan in Honeydukes." She said, a small smile playing on her lips. She waited for Ameliah's reaction to see whether they could pursue this topic or not.
Minerva chuckled, "I know you wouldn't, you seem to nice to want to poison anyone, even if it was a snake." Minerva had to think, was there anyone she would ever want to do that to. Well if there were it was most likely not a snake.. Maybe....No, no Minerva could never think like that.
She waited for her question. She could feel her nerves jump a bit waiting on the question and then it was. She wasn't sure how to answer it, but before her mind could really even think about it she was answering. "Well yes, don't all girls think about that." Laughing about it like it was no big deal. "Well, there is a boy Maxwell I started thinking about marrying him. He is super cute and fun, and like one of my best friend. He has come into my head many times about marrying, I actually had placed on my parchment last term Minerva Rookwood a few times." She was giggling now like a silly girl the she leaned in like it was a big secret. "Now there is a new boy..." **giggle** **giggle** "We just started talking, so I shouldn't think like that, but... She pulled out her parchment from her bag and written with silly hearts and flowers was Minerva McCarthy a few places. "I know it's silly, but why not think about it. It's fun to think about... There has been older students I have thought like that as well.. They were puffs, but one was Aaron and the other was Keefer." She just giggled and giggled needing to just stop talking, who was around listening to her spill all of this..
Sarah had regretted asking such a question, yet as she had she just went with the flow. This potion seriously made them spill everything. Not that Sarah minded of course. She was the kind of person who did not mind people pouring out their life story to her, infact she quite enjoyed it! She was a curious person after all! And this girl was so normal! She also had crushes and stuff! Sarah had not gotten around to doodling things yet, because she felt bad about having a crush.
This girl was giggling so hard! Now what next... Sarah did not know what to do! How does one stop this potion anyway? "Thank You so much for testing it for me! I am glad it works!" Sarah said.

Yep, the cat definitely liked this girl. Louisa watched her curiously, "No wonder my cat likes you. This is Cuddles and the other one playing by herself is Viola." Her thumb pointed over her shoulder to the tabby cat by her bag. "She licked your shoe earlier so it means she likes you too. Cuddles likes everyone and cuddles with everyone." So yeah, don't feel so special. Heh. Louisa didn't practice jabbing her wand, she'd done a thousand time since she got into Hogwarts and up till now. The girl was doing fine though and the older smiled and nodded encouragingly.
"It does seem easier but it's harder to get the hold of since it targets the joints." The more specific a spell is, the harder it is and more concentration they need to get it done as needed. "Okay... I'll do it first." She held Cassia's hand in hers again, grabbing her fingers gently and taking a deep breath. "One.. two.. three.." she jabbed her wand and thought Torparticus! letting go of the younger's hand. A concerned look passed over her face immediately, "Are you okay? did it hurt too much?" Since when was Louisa a compassionate Ravenclaw?

Minerva was laughing and having a good time. Thinking about her previous crushes through the terms. Oh she had a few, but the first two were more then just crushes. She laughed again and then felt a bit odd. What was wrong, she was so happy now she felt foggy looking at Sarah she gave a weak smile. "I am assuming the potion worked by the foggy feeling I'm having. " She tried to think about what they talked about and wasn't really sure, "So.. What did you ask me, because I'm having trouble remembering it..." She was hoping she wasn't completely dumb or anything.
Looking around Minerva was glad they weren't around to many people in case she did say something embarrassing or something of that sort. She hoped it wasn't to bad, but there wasn't much she had to offer that she wouldn't have told someone without the potion so she wasn't horribly worried about something, unless it was about someone else's secret, then that could be a problem. She might not have many of her own, but she had enough friends, what if they told her something she wasn't suppose to say. That's where the worry started a bit.
Ella smiled, nodding her head. "Yes, homework...how could I forget?" Giggle. "I have to admit I've been procrastinating a bit lately." Shrug. She blamed Quidditch, honestly, and Harvey, and just being too all over the place in her head.

Ameliah laughed. "Yeah, well when you're a Claw, homework is top priority." Well.. maybe not TOP TOP. She had already promised she'd blow a weekend if she had to so she could get home to hang out.
"LOGAN?!?!?" Am grinned really hard and blushed a little... okay a lot. "I met with him at the Broomsticks!!"

Since when was Louisa a compassionate Ravenclaw?
Cassia glanced at the two cats smiling. Cuddles and Viola…those were cute names she thought. She made a mental note to ask Louisa if she could play with the cats sometime. The second-year had a list of all the students who have cats in the castle. Well, not all but most of them. And she had asked all if she could play with the cats. She missed her cats a lot so she had to find a replacement.
Then it was time for the spell. Cassia swallowed when Louisa took her hand in hers. At the lesson she hadn't liked this one. Not like she liked the previous one but that one was more bearable she thought. Stiffening fingers are more bearable than jelly joints. The second-year looked away when Louisa started counting. She didn't want to watch how her joints were will turn all jelly-like.
Aaaaand...Torparticus.
Cassia winced at the feeling. Her fingers didn't hurt but it felt awkward . the slytherin dared a look at her fingers and wrinkled her forehead at the sight. Her fingers were dangling it not a pleasant view. She looked up at Louisa with her forehead still wrinkled, "Not hurt." She said. "It's so not a pleasant feeling." She didn’t look again at her hand. Okay now this time is really the last time she was going to have such spells cast on her own fingers. Homework or not.
Cassia reached for her wand and flicked it towards her hand without looking," Finite," her fingers were back to normal. She sighed relieved that she got rid of the feeling. She brought her hand up in front of her face and flipped it over wiggling her fingers. It felt so good now.
"Ok now you're turn." She announced." Fingers please.."

Louisa wanted to share her previous experience with jelly fingers, awful looking, numbness and helpless hand. But she didn't feel so comfortable sharing the fact that she got hexed by a younger girl and did nothing but yell back at her and then rat her out to their Head of House. "It looks worse than it feels, right?" She had first-hand knowledge about this. Louisa scooped Cuddles up and the cat meowed at Cassia before licking her jellied fingers.
The Ravenclaw put the cat down then and kept a close eye on Cassia as she ended the spell, then Louisa tucked her wand temporarily in and extended her hand over to the younger girl. "Just concentrate well on the incantation and keep your intention clear and strong." She didn't want to end up with a completely jellied out body, you know.

The Ravenclaw put the cat down then and kept a close eye on Cassia as she ended the spell, then Louisa tucked her wand temporarily in and extended her hand over to the younger girl. "Just concentrate well on the incantation and keep your intention clear and strong." She didn't want to end up with a completely jellied out body, you know.
Cassia didn't know what to say when Louisa said that the spell looked worse than felt. Because she hadn't looked closely. She only barely glanced at it. It wasn't cool to see how your fingers looked all Jelly. And did the older girl seem to have an idea about the effect of this spell? Had someone cast it on her? Cassia would've naturally stormed the girl with questions but she was now busy casting spell and stuff.
The second-year reached for the abandoned notebook and checked the incantation one last time.She didn't want to cast another spell accidentally. Better keep the aftermath of this practice session clean."Torparticus.." She said just reminding herself how the spell sounded. "Okay, don't worry I cast it on my own fingers at class and they are still solid and attached to my hand." She reassured the ravenclaw.
Raising her hand up and aiming it at Louisa's hand. Cassia nodded reassuringly at the older girl before jabbing her wand at her fingers."Torparticus!" she uttered. And immediately the fingers...well were like Jelly. Cassia looked away once she made sure she got the spell right. She inserted her notebook and wand into her wand. Because the Head Girl would be able to stop the spell. And leaving the girl to enjoy her jellied fingers, Cassia reached for the cat and scooped her up scratching behind her ears and under her neck.
"Not so pleasant,huh?" she said her eyes never leaving the cat.

"Not so pleasant,huh?" she said her eyes never leaving the cat.
That was why working with younger kids was not Louisa's big moments. They paid so little attention to basically anything that doesn't taste sweet or feel sticky, and now Cassia revised the spell incantation once before quickly putting the notebook aside and talking about her epic skills in the torparticus hex. The Ravenclaw nodded slowly and doubtfully, at least the girl did practice in class? And like she said, was still alive and finger-ish.
BAM. Louisa's fingers went limp and numb all at once, she frowned down at them as she wiggled her hand. They flailed about making her wince. "Yeah. You did it perfectly." Her voice wasn't proud really, she was just pointing out a fact. Cuddles was snuggling against Cassia's body, happy with the attention and the snug. The seventh year used her other hand to do a finite on her jinxed fingers, and like professor Romanos had said Louisa felt the blood rush through her veins tingling before the fingers felt normal again.
Yeah, not a very pleasant practice.
"You can play with Cuddles for a while. I'll be writing down my notes over there." She offered the girl a measured smile before moving to where her backpack laid on the floor and taking a spot near it. She took a parchment and her quill out.

"LOGAN?!?!?" Am grinned really hard and blushed a little... okay a lot. "I met with him at the Broomsticks!!"
Ella grinned, nodding. "Yeah, I suppose that kind of goes with the territory of being in that house." Though Harvey seemed to be doing quite a bit of slacking, at the moment. Ella really needed to force him to come with her to the library with her or something! "We've kinda been bombarded lately with it, the homework and classes. It's kind of making my head spin, actually." And taking up most if not all of her time. Which was fine really, as they were at school.
So Ameliah's reaction caught Ella off guard and she giggled a bit, noting the serious blush that had spread across her cheeeks. "Yeah Logan, you know nice and cute and plays the guitar?" And she smiled knowingly, resisting the urge to nudge the girl. "You did? That's good. I um...well he told me that you two were um dating now." Which was good really, Ella was happy as long as he was. "Congrats, I hope you guys are really happy." And she really meant that.

Ameliah nodded. "Yeah, they're already preparing us for OWLs. I know you can never be too prepared, but... well even I think it's overkill." She was already close to cracking, just imagine OWL years! *shudder* It'd be enough to drive Am insane!
She giggled - yes, confident Ameliah GIGGLED - and her cheeks went a little pink again. But she couldn't help it-- what Ella said was true. Logan was INDEED nice and cute and wicked at guitar. "Yeah, we are!!" Which was kinda funny since it seemed she, Harvey, Ella, and Logan kind of flip-flopped. Weird, huh?
Ethan walked briskly through the corridor, his homework nearly finished but not quite. He was nearing on the deadline and he still needed to practice one of the spells before it could be complete. The overwhelming amount of homework and studying left the boy with nearly-missed deadlines for previous assignments and this seemed to be a repeat of that.
The boy's eyes searched the corridor for any sign of a person. And of course there was no one. He probably could practice the spell on himself.. but it was so much easier to practice on someone else. He would literally ask the first random person that came walking down the corridor.. and if no one did in the next five minutes, he would be casting it on himself.

Minerva had just left class and was headed down the corridor. She wasn't really paying attention thinking about the homework she needed to check off her list so that she wasn't getting to far behind. Why was there so much going on at the moment. She lifted her head just to notice Ethan was standing looking around. Smiling she walked over towards him.
Smiling she kissed his cheek, "Hey you.." Her smile changed to concern when she saw the worry on his face. "Ethan, are you alright? Do you need help with something?"

And the first person to walk through the corridor just happened to be Minerva. He gave her a smile as she came over to kiss his cheek. "Hi.." he started then shrugged at her next words. "I'm okay.." he chuckled. "Just trying to get this dumb homework done. I was so busy with studying that I put it off till the last minute."
She would help him, right? He was pretty confident she would.. and it wasn't much more he had to finish. It should only take a few minutes, then she could be on her way.. or do something else with him, maybe. "Could you give me a hand?" Heh.. literally... "I just need to practice that one spell a few times.. Petrificus Digitirus."

Minerva smiled as he asked his question.. He was just so cute when he was in need of some help. oh he was working on Petrificus, that was the one that made her fingers go straight and stick together. That wasn't a big deal at all. "Ethan, of course I can help you with this. You know you can ask for help anytime you want."
Setting down her bag she placed her wand in the front so that he could use whichever hand he wanted for the spell. Turning back to him she gave a reassuring smile, "Here you go..." She lifted her hands and walked back over closer to him.

Ethan gave her a relieved smile. He figured he could count on her to help him out. "Okay, just so you know.. I haven't practiced this one at all yet.. but I don't think anything could go too wrong." What was the worst that could happen? He figured it just wouldn't work at all. They usually didn't the first time he had a go at it.
As Minnie raised her hand in front of him, he pulled out his wand. Waving it in an upside-down U shape at her hand, he commanded, "Petrificus Digitirus!" Ethan stared at her hand for a second, then looked into her face. "Well.. did it work?" He would not be surprised at all if it didn't.

Minerva gave him a cautious look.. "Well.. umm.. as long as you don't take off a finger or anything.." She then grinned at him and giggled a bit. "Just kidding, I know you will do great. I'm not worried at all." She watched as he raised his wand and made the upside down U. He did it very nicely and cute of course.
As he said the spell her focus went on his words and she smiled as he said them. She felt something going on with her hand. It felt as if a few fingers were trying to fight to straighten, but were not completely straightening. Then all at once her fingers straightened and stuck together. She tried to pull them apart, but they would not move. She then tried to use her other hand to do it, nope not happening. "Well I think you did a great job.. It work wonderfully."

Ethan's eyes widened slightly. Take off a finger.. he hoped not. But as he realized she was only joking, he chuckled a bit. And no, thankfully, he hadn't taken off one of her fingers.. but did it work? He watched carefully as Minnie examined her fingers. "It worked? Really?" The boy was quite surprised. He almost never got a spell correct on the first or second try. "Reverto."
"Mind if I give it another try? Just to make sure?" Ethan wanted to make sure it wasn't some kind of fluke to get it right away and to make sure he actually knew how to perform the spell. Besides, she already had her hand up.. surely she wouldn't mind once more. "Petrificus Digitirus," he commanded with that same tight little upside down U. "How's it this time? Still stuck?"

Hogwarts RPG Name: Michael Alexander DeLarge (a.k.a. Mick)
Fifth Year
Laura + Micky
Back in our common rooms. Everything seems normal again. Got my boots cleaned. I've got a big stash of candy under my bed. And cookies! Life is good!
I think...Mick was happily skipping down corridor, not giving a hoot if anyone saw him but the last thought that wandered into his head made him stop and frown. Great, I thought I wasn't going to worry about this again. Frustrated with himself, he leaned against the wall and lowered himself to the floor, knowing he won't have a good day while thoughts of Laura and Elliot ran through his mind. Mick replayed the part where Elliot told him of how she doesn't like the girl he's dating; he promised himself to not let that bother him and so far he's failing. They couldn't seriously hate each other, could they? I can be friends with both of them, right? No matter, he still likes Laura. Nobody has to like everybody. Even so, it would be nice if they got along.
*sigh*
