And who knew Lottie was such an animal activist? Ella was surprised though her expression remained neutral. It seemed they had more similarities than she'd thought. "I think so too. It's not as if we're doing spells on each other so there has to be some kind of negative effects." Though transfiguring Lottie into a hat did sound sort of amusing to her. She couldn't help but wonder what kind of hat the girl would be. Why she had the image of a cocked Navy-style hat in mind, the blonde wasn't sure.

And look! Their boats were weathering Ella's waves quite well. The Head Girl smiled, glad her ship hadn't sunk. Something told her that the brunette wouldn't forget it if it had. "Thanks. Same to you, Wisteria." The older girl then picked her boat up out of the water and gave the younger badger a nod. "Ropes."

Back at the blanket now, the blonde flopped down gently and pulled her wand towards her. Then, after drying off her small boat with the use of a drying charm, the seventh year set it down off to the side and pulled the vine in front of her. Now if only she could remember the incantation.

"It's...Vinea Fun-something." Fun what, though? "Do you remember?" Help?


Ever since Bellaire used to teach Charms, Lottie was more than prepared for anything that may occur during her lessons. Remember that shoe, Aidan Stone? Precisely. That was a warning.

It seemed that way. The Hogwartian wasn't remotely surprised by Ella's words, she definitely looked like the kind who cared about animals. What with the dogs and the turtle, and her love of elephants. Yup. Not surprising at all. There was a smile on Lottie's face for the Head Girl, though, "Yes, I agree wholeheartedly. Not to mention that you're technically forcing the transformation onto them, and since most of them can't talk...," a language that humans understood, unlike the Giant Squid, "...then you don't have their permission." She disliked to be forced into things, can't you tell? Reason number one why she'd rather Clover not to have fancy hats or anything similar. And no transfiguration on Lottie, ever.

We still like Bellaire, though.

"Thanks!" They did a wonderful job, clearly. And should totally team up for Transfiguration in the future.

Now, back to the boat, hers was safely on the blanket, out of harm and water's way. And the vine was in her hand when Ella spoke next. Right. The spell. She remembered this one, actually. "It's Vinea Funiculus," nothing fun here, this is practice, "And pointing instead of tapping." In case Ella also needed help with that.

"Vinea Funiculus!" she said, pointing at the vine and... she probably did a terrible job at focusing because that rope seemed like it could be cut with the edge of a piece of parchment. "Like that... only much, much better." Disgusting example of magic. Mediocrity at its best. She touched the rope and wrinkled her nose before returning it to its former state.
