"I think I might just do that, as a matter of fact. I have been looking for an excuse to hex people," she said with a smirk.
Then she turned her attention back to Finlay and SMIIIILED brightly. "You could work with me. If you want to," she said with a giggle. Yes. Let me hex you. Please.

Ooh. And Lexi was talking to him too. So it wasn't too bad that he'd come over really. At least someone would be talking to him. That was good. "Hey Lex..." He smiled, pretending that like it was not awkward at all right now. Lexi wanted to work with him? Mmm. Well that was probably because she would get to hex him, and any other girl he wouldn't be that scared, but this was Lexi, and he knew she would be good. "Sure...." Why not?

"Oh don't be scared. Use a shield and you'll be fine," she said with a grin. Really it was the best bet. "You've been well though, yeah?" Teensy bit of convo never hurt anyone.
"Did you hear Jim say what hex he was teaching? The nettle hex," she said as she set her parchment aside and shrugged out of her coat and unwrapped her scarf from around her neck. She then removed her wand from it's holster and walked back toward Finlay.
"Riiiight." Jim eyed the two of them. "If you're just dueling, you'll have to go next door." Yeah look at him being all responsible. Weirder things had happened though.
Heh he was sure though, that those two COULD learn a thing or two if they actually wanted to participate in the lesson.
He rubbed at his arm a bit and then gave up and conjured a salve, which he stopped to apply liberally. Better. It'd do until he could pop up to see Moretti, or maybe get a potion from Lafay.
Dilemma. Both were temptingly hot as far as perving went.
"So yeah." He returned his attention to his friend.... and the head boy.
"Wouldn't want any stray hexes flying around."

"Careful." He noticed the tight grip and grinned when she relaxed a bit. "Hard to cast with much finesse or dexterity gripping it like its gonna run away any second and all. We'll start on something new now, but one of these guys can show you the nettle hex later maybe, it'll be good practice for them too."

What!? No slap? Instead a "good job"?
Nika smiled happily and looked up at the much taller seventh year. "Thanks." Hey at least she was getting it. "Are you sure you're alright?" She could always run and get him ice or something... Maybe the healer would have something for him...
Now what was she supposed to do?... "Should I keep practicing this hex?" Or maybe perhaps she should go to the other group...? She was honestly just waiting for more instruction because she felt like a lost puppy. Nika was ready to do what ever Jim said she should and she honestly didn't care if it meant practicing this hex for another two hours.
"s'all good." Jim answered, indicating the salve he'd just conjured and applied. "It'll hold. I'll get it sorted later." And the salve was already calming the angry red weal.
"I think you know enough to practice more on your own, so we'll move onto another spell now."

Jim nodded. "Sure. Just wander back this way if you wanna try something else." He turned his attention back to the kids learning offensive stuff from him and shot a glance at Lexi before he spoke.
"So next up we'll try the antler jinx. Good fun that one." Mmmhmm. Right Lexi? "Y'all got your wands ready? The incantation is Anteoculatia." What a mouthful. "
AN-tea-oh-cuh-
LAY-chee-a. This one is a jinx. We'll get onto the wand movement in a second but do any of you lot know about fundamental differences between hexes, jinxes and curses?" Might as well throw a bit of theory in there and all, yeah?
