This had to be one of the few times that Alexa had actually been excited for homework this term. Yeah there was theory, and she'd worry about that later, for now SPELLS!! Casting on each other and just giving her wand some well needed exercise. It'd been lacking in this department, mhm.

Lex walked into the arena with her kneazle tucked under her arm. She always took him with her when she did homework....except not anymore for Astronomy if the Professor was gonna be there. That didn't go so well last time.

The first thing she noted when she got there was that Dora hadn't gotten there yet. No problem. She could be a patient Gryffind--no...no she couldn't. Alexa walked over to the dummies. Might as well while she waited. Besides, the girl was good at spells, so was Lex, but she wouldn't expect to disarm her too many times. It wasn't to say she wanted Dora to go easy on her, that wasn't how life worked. Sometimes, dummies were just better for self-esteems. The fourth year placed her kneazle on the ground. "Watch this, I've gotten better at it."

A few steps back, then...."Expelliarmus!" She grinned. "See, told you I got this." Lex glanced to the door, just checking but she was less impatient now. At the moment, she was completely occupied.
