The wand movement is to the tap the top or surface of the target, with your wand, twice. So." He rapped the top of the lantern he had set down earlier, said the incantation out loud, and the lantern seemed to disappear. Jared cast Finite - verbally, for the benefit of the students - and the lantern re-appeared.

"Concentration and focus are more essential to this charm, than many others. The more you concentrate, the better your results. If your mind isn't on the charm, it's likely that half the target is going to disappear, and half remain in plain sight." No good, that.

"Go ahead and try it out on your lanterns. And," he added, before any of the students could start getting ideas. "No one is going to cast the Disillusionment Charm on themselves and then move away from their hay bale." They could cast it on themselves. If they remained on their hay bales until they nullified its effects. He wouldn't put it past some of the students to sneak off. "If anyone does so -" And he would know if someone did - "That's fifty points from their house and a week's worth of detention."

Yes. Finally. We're doing something!

Savannah took out her wand and pointed it at her lantern. Umm...what's the spell again? "Disil-Disillu-Disali-Disillusiona?" she guessed hopefully. Her lantern faded a little, but not completely. It turn into a shade of purple from where Savannah was standing. "Er..." She poked the lantern carefully, it felt cold yet not freezing. She better try it again, more clearer this time.

Savannah tapped the top of her lantern and cryed. "Disillusiona!" And woo hoo! It became invisible! Well, at least it looks invisible. But after a few seconds, the lantern came into view again, then back to invisble, then flashed back again. "Er...proffessor? Is this suppose to happen?"
