The amount in their cauldron might be right, but what they shooted out of their wands wasn't water! So, none of them was on FIYAH or anything. Cosgrach drew his wand, and vanished them in the order they used the spell.

"It's Aguamenti, people!" he said somewhat in stress - he wouldn't let anything go bad today! "So use the correct incantation this time." Please, would they?

Maybe he shouldn't be very hopeful about this class, since TOBY got such an easy thing wrong too.

Cosgrach wondered why Kevin looked at Zander. Sure, Kevin looked like the most persuasive person, and Zander - GASP! What if Kevin was secretly bullying Zander!!!??? The man was too shocked with this idea to speak for a moment, and he took a mental note to ask it to Sophie or someone after class.

"Then, yes, that person would be even more persuasive." Should he forbid Kevin to drink it?

His mind was still on Kevin, but his eyes were on Dante. It was a good question. Was everyone listening?

"Then you'd be arrogant." So it would be 'excessive'.

Cosgrach wasn't happy, no.

If anything, he was CONFUSED. What was wrong with her? Was she just angry because the ends of her hair burned a little? He didn't know, but he had to ask.

"Would you stay after class, Miss Glasswall?" Because he didn't want to lose a very good student.

His mind was still on Annabeth, so he didn't offer his usual smile to Zander.

"Yes, it'll be your homework," he said absent-mindedly.

Mhmmm, he got her owl about the Workshop! He smiled at her.

"That's even more compelling," he said, "but I'm sure you can do it." Mhmmm, not going to discourage her from trying it.

And he didn't miss it.

He read it, then frowned to himself. She did look like her... and the name, it was French again. Cosgrach walked to the girl.

"Are you Jasmine's sister?" he asked with a small smile, because he liked the girl. Should he hope that the sister was just as bright?

Paloma...

Almost as if this school didn't have the common names such as 'Elizabeth, Jane, Mary' and such, huh?

"Is it 'Pah-lo-ma'?" he asked. He'd like to pronounce it right, y'see.

*COUGH, COUGH* -_____- She would get baptised by her cauldron.
Raspberry mint spray?

'Fans'????

Cosgrach couldn't help but laugh, all in good amusement, because he thought the girl did that so, anyway.

"You made sure I'll never forget ya," he said, because she deserved that much acknowledgment with pink hair and that remark. Rorie. Got it -

Notgonnalaugh,nopenopenope -

"Hahaha!" THAT was some show too! HEHEHE.

Cosgrach read his name, and nodded to himself as he muttered "Scott Weller." Now, this was a common name. Got it.

I'll show ya the magical way. So allll we gotta do is cast the charm first - Incendio," she demonstrated even though Dot had already done it, and the flame lit under her cauldron. "Then, turn your wrist like this clockwise," and so she demonstrated, still with her wand pointed at the flame, and the flame was raised to a maximum. "See? The flame'll only get so big here, it knows what it's doing, so y'just twist the wand to the right till the flame won't get any bigger." Make sense?
Ah, how wonderful it was for students to help each other! Certainly made his job easier!

"Take 3 points each," he said and smiled at each of them. Thank you!


Everyone seemed to be done with the first step, so he walked to the front and tapped the blackboard for it to show the next 2 steps that were easy.

"Next two steps are: first, add the scarab beetles without plopping them down, and after that, add half of the lion fur." He had learnt to read the steps out loud no matter what in his first year here. After that, he began to walk in the aisles slowly again.


OOC: I'll post 24 hours later.
