How cool! Certainly one of the more interesting lessons and reminded him just a tad of Lafay's lesson the previous term on moving pictures. Now there was a corresponding spell that rounded it out to make a whole photo and frame set.
Statua Habitum
Gideon wrote it down in his notes, practicing it in his head as he did so before speaking aloud though quietly a few to practice saying it. "Statua Habitum...Stat-UA HAB-itum...Statua Habitum." Now for the drawing part, the 5th year tracing a square on his piece of paper with the tip of his wand, trying to visualize it in his mind. He then imagined it becoming what he wanted it to be...a three-dimensional square frame.
Easier visualized then done of course.
Taking his wand up from the paper, he knew he had to actually try it. "Statua Habitum..." he finally cast, moving his wand in a square above the paper as Professor Magnus had demonstrated. Gideon watched the results as he had tried to focus on what it was to be but it had developed all wrong, looking instead like a square of twigs. Sighing softly, he moved to change it back. "Reverto," he cast, the object reverting to its original paper form, eying it slightly as he tried to figure what he had done wrong.
