If a person didn't possess enough anger or hatred, he or she wouldn't be able to utilize the charm to hurt someone else.

Moving on, though. "The correct incantation for the standard Severing Charm is dih-FIN-doh. The wand movement is a downward slashing motion. Like this." Jared glanced down at the cardboard box on his desk, took out the first item that he saw - some sort of rubber duck - tossed it into the air, and brought his wand down in a brief, slashing movement. Diffindo. The rubber duck split into two pieces, which hovered in the air until he lowered his wand, and let them drop back into the box. "If there are no questions, I'd like all of you to come to up here, grab an item or two -" He motioned towards the box standing on his desk "- and give the charm a go. Sixth and seventh years, try casting the charm nonverbally after you've learnt to cast it verbally."

The keyword being after.

OOC: There are participation points for this part, and we'll move on to the class activity in *counts* thirty hours or so? Just so you guys know.

Lara watched the Professor closely as he split the rubber duck into two halves. She kinda felt sorry for the dock it looked cute. But no time for emotions.

She headed towards the box and picked a little wooden thing from it. She stared at it trying to figure out what it is. Simply it was a mini box.

She walked back to her seat ,took out her wand cleared her throat and tested her voice "Diffindo!" Then it was splitting time! She held the mini box and tossed it into the air just like the Professor and shouted "DIFFINDOOO!" But nothing happened except that the box was flying in the air!

Lara's face reddened immediately, she walked towards the box. She picked it up and walked back to her place trying to swallow her disappointment. This time she didn't throw the box ,she just put it down and held her wand up and said "Diffindooo" The mini box barely moved this time.
She held it with anger she wished she could split it into tiny pieces with her bare hands! She eyed the box and said "Why aren't you braking?" she felt dumb for talking to it but she couldn't know what's wrong with it?!
