Today West had come not with just his wand, but a rather suspicious looking brush and jar full of an indistinct sort of liquid. He had his reasons though, mostly reasons for his own entertainment, but still, reasons. Had his start started to die yet? West was hoping so, then it'd at least be interesting to see if he had the power to revive a star. It would be like playing god in a way. Should any witch or wizard have that sort of power? And also, were the spells, which he hadn't yet practiced actually, only to work in relation with a small star? How many wizards would it take for instance, if the sun started to burn out and it needed a bit of temperature help? They could save the whole planet! And stuff.

Since today he intended to actually do stuff with his star, West went ahead with his labcoat and goggles, which he'd not bothered with when he'd popped his head in the other day since he'd just been looking and not actually doing stuff. He was gonna entertain himself even if his spell didn't nee... oh! Hey it was white! But a dull sort off off white, with a very feeble glow. Almost a grey glow. Could grey glow? West wasn't sure but he was pleased. NOW it was time to fix the star and maybe in the process he could find its name. He put his paintbrush and other!jar aside and set himself up at a workbench.

He didn't have the instructions in front of him but actually West didn't need them. Whether people knew it about him or not, his memory was impressive and he had, upon reading over his scribbled copy of what did what and what meant what the first time he'd come in, remembered it. So his star, being white (ish) needed more hydrogen. Crescere Hydrogenenii was the incantation he needed. West picked his wand up and practiced the wand movement: circle and jab. Circle and jab. It was easy to know what to focus on: moar hydrogen. He could do this. He unscrewed the jar lid, revealing his star. His nameless star.

"Crescere Hydrogenenii." He tried it on for size, just saying the incantation for now. Okay. Tongue twister a bit, but manageable. Circle and jab. West focused on the star-in-jar "Crescere Hydrogenenii!"

DIDITWORK? Had he saved the star?
