"Yeeeeeeaaaaaahhhhh but there's a sub-clause that says if you're cute enough to get away with it then you're totally not breaking any rules." TOBY!GRIN.

'Cause he was TOTALLY cute. YEP. Most of the time anyway, ehehe.

With one last wave of his wand with that final casting of reparo, the crack was soon completely gone. So now to kind of dust it or whatever, beFORE using the cleaning solution or magic.

Wait a second... "BRAIN twins? That sounds pretty neat!" Made sense too. Yeah, he could roll with that for SURE.

Now armed with the rag again, Tobias started wiping and dust or dirt or anything else from the back of the suit of armour. He'd decided to focus on the back, because if he cleaned the whole thing that would take away opportunities for other people to clean and they'd have to do the essay even if they didn't want to. SO. Just the back.

As he gently but firmly wiped off any loose dirt, Tobias thought on the return question. After a while, he spoke. "Maybe. Sometimes you get spells that are different because they're for specific things. Reparo just sounds like a little spell for books and glasses and shoes. If one of the towers in this castle collapsed, would reparo work?" He mused, working at the suit's back. "Or Reparo Maxima?"

Adding 'Maxima' to the end of any spell instantly made it awesome, obviously.

"I was just wondering, 'cause suits of armour used to be really really valuable even then, didja know that? Full suits weren't often worn into battle... too valuable... and probably too restrictive. Sooooooo because they're so valuable... maybe they had their own special set of spells?" Tobias finished wiping away the grime with that, and leaned around the suit of armour and picked up the cleaning solution. "I was just doing some reading and it made me wonder."

Sometimes his brain did the thing with the clever.
