Sweet!
Wow. Bad pun. Five points from Hufflepuff for terrible humor!

We'll pass it around and see how well you can all focus so that your spirit animal can pass the secret message on. If you participate you'll earn house points, and get some practice in for your particular homework, which will be different from the students who can't yet cast a corporeal form." Althea informed them.
"Who is going to play? Evelyn Flores, Lexi Kennedy, Arya Lovegoods, Josh Carter... anyone else?"
Game? Yes, please!
"
I'll play, Professor!"
Though he wasn't familiar with the Muffliato spell, he gave it a try anyways. "
Muffliato," he said. Nothing happened.
I wonder what's supposed to happen, did I do it wrong? He tried casting it again, just to make sure.
He watched the younger students separate themselves from the older ones. "
Good luck with your Patronuses!" he said to the students he had been helping.
This left Keefer to wait for Professor Scabior to start the message around. He wasn't very confident in his ability to send a message with a Patronus, since they hadn't been told how to and he had only managed a corporeal Patronus once.
