Minerva watched and waited would it work. Would the gargoyle come to life. It wasn't that she wasn't confident in the spell. She knew she knew it well. She did the circus didn't she, she just wasn't sure it would be that easy. A smile crossed her lips as she saw the gargoyle come to life and head over to her. She clapped excitedly, "Awesome" It worked.. it worked, but now it was looking at her with those cute stony eyes.

She looked back at Wade and that's when she noticed Henry was missing.. Wait.. he left? She assumed he'd be the one that would get them out of this plant maze. She sighed and looked back at the Gargoyle as Wade started talking. "He probably did, he got his workout flying us here. He did great though and so did you." She knew he would be sad to see the hippogriff go, but she assumed it was his time to head back out.

Continuing to look at the gargoyle she let the words Wade were saying run through her head. "Yes Praise could be that if one couldn't talk." She assumed the gargoyle couldn't talk it was a statue after all and to talk she would have to use the record charm, but this was transfiguration stuff. "I could try to have him clap. That would be a way of showing praise for sure."

She looked back towards Wade, "The way out, yes maybe he could do that, but let's try clapping first." She smiled back at the gargoyle, now her mind was racing did she have to say the spell again? No.. he was looking at them so he was still alive or well acting it. "We got to ride a hippogriff, we made it to the center of the maze, and we brought you to life." She couldn't help but smile at their accomplishments so far, but actually telling someone to praise them felt a little awkward, but it was part of the riddle. "Clap and praise us.. please." She watched as she gave the command hopefully this was what they were suppose to do.
