Herb HW 1 post 2 A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself.
Finding the soil, Kevin didn't even bother trying to summon it because he was still bad with that spell and he didn't want to make a mess of the greenhouses when he knew he had to clean it up himself. So the Gryffindor walked to grab it.
Returning to his station, he put the three pots in a row and added some of the soil in all three of them until they were half full. Then he looked over at the cart with the bouncing bulbs and grabbed his wand again.
He sneaked up on the bouncing bulbs from behind so that if he had to use the knockback spell, which he was sure he had to, he could push the bulb in the direction of one of the pots. Another step closer and the bulb began to shake, another step and it began to bounce slightly. He stopped in his track , held his breath and then reached out with both hands to grab the bulb.
With the bulb in his hands, Kevin RAN towards his station to put it in the pot but even before he reached the table the bulb slipped out of his hands, hit the floor, jumped up by the impact and hit him right in the face. "Owww!" he yelled as he rubbed his nose. That HURT! The bouncing bulb continued to bounce and the Gryffindor didn't take another second and pointed his wand at the plant. "Flipendo!" he shouted. Why hadn't he done that in the first place?!
