Charming Behavior: #12 Charms

“Why do you suppose they call it charms?” Tonks tapped her wand impatiently against the desk, doing everything possible to avoid having spellwork. “It makes them sound… so silly and frivolous. And charms are useful.”

“Why don’t you just practice your summoning spell and quit pestering me?” Charlie snapped at her, scratching out a word with his quill.

“Maybe because you’re so much MORE charming with the right charms?” Tonks asked, but Charlie ignored her. “Charlie?”

She prodded him with her wand, and Charlie jolted in his chair as a bolt hit him. He burped loudly.

“Apparently not,” she laughed.
