 The Last of Her Kind
Okay, so Adrienne probably shouldn't turn anyone into a hat. But still, the fact that she could, if she wanted to, was pretty empowering. Look at all of these petty humans! Look at how easy it is to make them into stylish, skin-covered accessories!
...yeah, she needed to get her thoughts back to class, and especially the rabbit that was squirming around in her hands. She let go of it with just one hand to grab her wand, but to her surprise it gave a particularly fierce wriggle and managed to hop its way onto the desk in front of her. "Petrificus Totalus!" she said quickly, and its front legs locked, its muscles tensed up, and it froze in place; the only thing moving was its small black eyes, which were creeping her out a bit anyway.
"Lepus Caput," Adrienne muttered under her breath and, confident that she could say it correctly, she did the wand movement once too. There, that was fairly simple. "Lepus Caput!" she said again, this time at the same time as she waved her wand at the stock-still rabbit, and... well, it sort of worked. Its facial features seemed to be gone, and its legs, and it was certainly much more round than it used to be, but a pair of ears and a fluffy white tail were still very obviously here. Humph.
