Like a sideways candy cane.

The movement was awkward and it took him a dozen tries to before he had it down pat. And then he sounded out the incantation.

"Henshu." It sounded so weird.

Michael was just about to try the spell on his shoe when he noticed Little Bunny a little away from him and she seemed to be doing a pretty good job. So he moved over to her and tapped her gently on the shoulder. "Hey can you show me how you did that?"
The one time she'd gotten a spell in the first try, and that actually worked, seemed to have worked TOO well. She was stuck. Like, her feet couldn't dislodge themselves from the floor, and the more she moved, the more she wobbled in her posture.

SIGH. These things only happened to her. WHY?

Then she was being tapped on the shoulder. If it wasn't for her predicament she would have taken a step back. As it was she was STUCK. She almost lost balance, but she quickly reached out and grabbed Train Boy's arm. She'd recognized his voice. Maybe it wasn't such a bad day.

"Hi...sorry." She let go off him and grinned with a nod. "All you do is a twist and horizontal flick with your wand." She demonstrated while trying to keep her balance. "Now, when you say the incantation, you want your words and intent to be clear." Or he'd end up with no sticky feet. Or no boat in her case. Transfiguration practice had been terrible.

Beverly gazed at him expectantly as if saying, Go on, try it.
