Then you carry that through to a small circle shape finished by a gentle jab at the item you are changing. But you do not need to touch it." She demonstrated what she meant by applying it to the watch she had left on her desk. Cross shape, circle, jab. "One long, fluid movement, no stopping and starting or it won't work correctly.... Comletia!" With a poof the watch became a bright red compass, similar colouring to what the watch had been. She held it up for them to see.

"Now if you wish to change the appearance even further, beyond merely making it a compass, you need to concentrate even harder, and more completely on what you wish the final object to look like." Placing the new compass back down on the desk, Issy leant her bum against it as she looked at the kids. "Concentration and intent are key to making sure you get the exact thing you are aiming for. Now please practice the wand movement without the incantation, and once you feel you have mastered it, move on to doing the two together."

Feeling the cool air blow on her face, Isabelle closed her eyes and smiled. It was helping. "If you make any mistakes, or simply want to keep practising more than the once - which I hope you do - I shall revert the compass back for you to a watch, or you can ask one of the older students for help with that. I'm sure they'd be more than willing." Right? "You may begin."

OOC: I'm going to have get an early night, I'm sorry. Just continue practising, first with just wands, then with wands and incantation. You can chat a little, but please don't go overboard. I might not be here, but Professor Magnus is still in the room, and with her headache she will take points. So please have your character behave.

Perhaps the Professor hadn't heard her initial question, but she also didn't seem in the mood to be answering too many questions at the moment.

Frowning a bit, Kurumi returned her gaze to her pocket watch and then looked back up at Professor Magnus as they demonstrated the wand movement. Well, that wasn't too complicated now, was it. Kurumi blinked several times trying to take in everything. So, first you make a small cross right to left, top to bottm...wait, that didn't seem right. Was it left to right, top to bottom? Kurumi held her hand in her right hand as she just stared at her wand for several moments. No, the movement had been top to bottom first and then left to right. Kurumi did that first with her index finger before thinking about the next step. Tracing invisible lines in the air, Kurumi made a small circle with her finger and then poked the center.

Okay, I think I've got this.

Picking up her wand this time, Kurumi repeated the same movements with her wand hand before saying the spell with, perhaps a little too much enthusiasm. There was a loud POP and smoke emerged from her pocket watch. When the smoke had cleared, Kurumi looked down to see that half of it had melted and was now dripping off the able.

"Oops..." Kurumi whispered as she pulled out her handkerchief from her pocket. She held it against the edge of her desk so as not to let the liquid metal drip on to the floor.
