They were the same... But different. "Perhaps one changes the part temporarily and the other changes it permanently?" Hugo asked hesitantly. Oh, Hugo was first!
Hmm. "I'm afraid not, no. They both change it for however long you want, until you use the counterspell. Good try though," Issy grinned. Quote:

Until those two spells went up onto the board.
Evelyn had no idea what they were, nor could she split the words up and figure it out. Everyone was saying things about hair but, was that even right?! How would they know? Hesitantly raising her hand as she stared at the two spells, she shook her head slightly with a mighty confused look on her face. "Does one...change your eye color and the change it back again?"
Shrug. "You are very close to the right part of the body, just a little further north." Oooh, cryptic. But she was sure Evelyn could work that one out. Quote:

"Umm can it possibly be about changing someone's body part into the form of a cat's? Because of the 'felin(e)'..." The Gryffindor hoped it was at least close. "That is a good guess, based on the words..." *pause* She didn't know his name. Ploughing on. "But we're not doing human to animal transformations in today's lesson." Grin. Quote:

Of course quickly he had checked the holster and...phew!...the hazel wood was safely there. Good good good. So nodding at the professor again, he directly made his way towards where Evelyn pointed him, the moment he caught the eye contact with her. During the first question, of which answer was this Metamorphmagi thing, was asked, the lion boy was too busy with making himself comfortable on the seat and making sure his girlfriend looked to be happy with it as well.
Changing appearances...huh? He doubted he wanted that but it could have been useful at certain times of course. No problem if he was not a metamorph...thing anyway. What was the Polyjuice Potion for?
And to be honest he had never heard of the spells on the board and he had no idea what they did but...what were guessing games for then?  ''What about...nose, professor?''
Because that was going to be the only thing he was going to change on him. Not that he was unhappy with it, he just did not want to do further changes than that. "Go a little further up and you'll get the right area." Isabelle winked at Josh and walked past to the next person. Quote:

Jesifur raised her hand. "Could Felintas possibly give you a cat like appearance? Ristaris sounds like how you would restore what ever you may have done." "It sounds like it could, but no, I'm afraid it doesn't. And Ristaris is not the counterspell either, we have another for that. Good try though." Quote:

She also felt a bit sad when she mentioned that they couldn't be taught how to become a metamorphagus, even though she already knew that.
As for the spells...
She raised her hand. "The first spell makes me think of felines," she spoke hesitantly, looking from the two spells to the professor. "We're not going to get whiskers, are we?" As much as she loved cats, she wouldn't enjoy having only parts of one. Aww, this one seemed nervous. Whether it was about getting the answer right, or that she'd be turned into a cat, Issy wasn't sure. But she reassured her anyway. "Not whiskers, no. Not today anyway." Quote:

She even tried to pronounce the words that were written on the board.. with no such luck, of course.
After writing the words down, she listened to everyone's answer before raising her hand. "Maybe they change your mouth." Pfft, Evelyn said eyes. And Josh said nose. Mouth was next! "Again you are very close to the right area, just a little bit away from it." Isabelle nodded at Destiny as she walked past the girl's desk. Some of them were getting SO CLOSE. Quote:

He knew he had to wrong but at least he was trying, right? Sweat dripped from his face as continued. "For instance, if you had straight black hair, you could possibly use one of these spells to change your hair into curly blonde hair?" Quote:
Originally Posted by elllla_Wtwins Thea blinked. Whaaa? Was it time for guessing already? Oh dear. 'Can one of them change.. the colour of something? Such as your hair or eyes?' Could be handy for disguises. 'Can another change things completely? such as your hair style?' These guesses were getting worse. Thea stopped talking and just sat there looking completely puzzled.

Well they were very lucky. Ind would've loved to change her hair. That would've so much fun. Indiana wrote a few things down on her parchment, before looking up, and listening to the professor. She had no idea what those spells meant, but she figured that they must change part of her apperance. Indy decided that she may as well guess, that was the teacher was asking for right? Indy thought, before she raised her hand. "Maybe....they change your hair? Like does one change the length and the other the color?" AND BINGO.
Especially bingo to the young Ravenclaw girl with the curly hair. "You three are correct! Especially you my dear," she pointed at Indy and smiled. "They do indeed change your hair. Felintas changes the length and style, and Ristaris changes the colour - it can also be used on eyes, but not today." Quote:
Originally Posted by Board FELINTAS = LENGTH AND STYLE OF HAIR

"Now, I don't know if any of you were aware that a carnival rolled into Diagon Alley over the summer..." she looked around them and smiled. They seemed like the sort that would have gone. "But that has influenced how I want you all to perform these spells."
The grin on her face twitched wider as she pointed her wand at her head. A quick tap and her once long brown hair shrunk and became frizzy, until it looked very much like an afro style. Another tap changed it to a bright red colour. Surely they could now see where she was going with this? "That's right. You're going to become clowns for this lesson." Evil? Probably to those who cared what they looked like. Fun? Heck yes. "Before we get on with the spells though, I want you all to look the part. So please find a partner for this bit, because it's more fun that way, and come up and collect one of these sets of face paints." Isabelle reached inside one of the boxes on her desk and produced a pile of other boxes, each containing paints for them to use. She then walked over to the trunks and threw back the lids. "AND I have costumes for you to wear! Come and get one, get changed, then please do your partners make up. We'll move on when you've all completed that." OOC: You don't NEED a partner for this bit, but it is fun to paint all over someone else's face  If you want to do it on your own that is fine. Just have your character come and get a costume, change, and then pick up a painting kit. Sit in your pairs (if you're in one) and have fun! We'll move on later. Chatting about the task only please! |
