Text Cut: Well, it's going well. ^^

BOTH. It was both. She was encouraging Ella to use more intent while casting, and reminding herself to do the same. Two birds, one stone. ~~But mostly a bird called Ella.~~

And nice? Lottie smiled at her, "Thanks," but no, she wasn't satisfied with it and she will not take mediocrity on her behalf. None. She will not have it. It was just like with that umbrella she transfigured that time. Or the shoelaces into the umbrella, rather. She didn't stop until she thought it was perfect, which was the same for this.

Hmmmmm, bigger boats? "That's what Bellaire said, but I'm more interested in the what for part." Was she planning a boat race of sorts? That was so muggle. If that was the case... don't worry, she won't be pushing anyone off of it this time around.

"That looks better." Ella's mini-boat. It was far more better than the last one. Could be a keeper. It was up to her.

Next thing, Lottie was doing it again, transfiguring that piece of wood into a boat. "Lignum Navicula!" she said, tapping the wood again. And a much sturdier-looking boat appeared, but she was still not satisfied with it, never mind how perfect and unsinkable it looked. The Giant Squid wouldn't break it or anything. (Really doesn't matter than one of its tentacles could actually sink it, but shhhhh.) So, "Reverto!" happened.

That was more interesting. The vine/rope thing. "I'm extremely lost about the ropes, though." Like, it could be for ANYTHING and everything, sooooo.... no clue. "At least we're not working with animals, which is good." A random thought as she eyed the wood once more and performed the spell again.

This time she was satisfied with her perfect boat. Inspections were made, not a single hole in it. Perfect.

She simply nodded her head instead of commenting, though. She already knew her boat had been lame. She knew. And then it was Lottie's turn and the head girl watched curiously, wondering if she was trying to transfigure a boat or burn a hole in the wood. That would have been a neat parlor trick, wouldn't it? The eighteen year old almost wished for it to happen but no such luck. "Nice." The boat. It looked strong enough. Apparently it wasn't to Lottie's liking, though. "Probably bigger boats. Maybe we'll be making some we can float in." If they were learning survival spells or whatever, it made sense that they'd eventually use them in a real life survival situation. Plus Bellaire seemed the sort to want to put them in harms way just to watch them squirm. Best way to separate the weak from the strong. Fabulous but evil, that's what she was. Ella was sticking with that. After snacking on another gummy worm, a red one this time, the blonde focused again on the little square of wood in front of her. Intent. Strong, sturdy, and buoyant. All those things were in her mind as she eyed the wood. "Lignum Navicula!" TAP! It wasn't bad, the boat. Markedly better than her first attempt, actually. The blonde picked it up and weighed it in the palm of her hand, observing the sides and then turning it over to see the bottom. It looked like it might float well, that was for sure. "What do you s'pose we'll need the rope for?" Vine...vine rope...rope vine. That thing. What would they need it for? Ella's hopes for a rope swing were surely wrong. BOTH. It was both.
