He’d still put her answer with other people’s. Brooklyn had sort of side-eyed the professor for that, but she’d stayed quiet while he’d been talking. That and scribbled down the additional notes as they’d appeared on the board. At least the short break had rested her hand so there was less chance of it cramping up. Plus, they were being excused from the notes to actually do something, which was even better. Learning spells was always better than just being stuck taking notes like they were at some Muggle school. She was here to learn spells and magic, and all of that. Anything that could help strengthen her superiority. Could help her be respected, if not feared. Feared could be nice too. It meant people wouldn’t mess with her, which was the important part.

The fact they were learning a Severing Charm made it even cooler. She still knew better than to try it without practice, after all her other classes and everything. She didn’t want to accidentally cut herself either. Other people might have been fair game, had she not been in a lesson, but she wasn’t about to hurt herself. “Diffindo,” she said to herself, feeling out the incantation and its pronunciation. After repeating it a few times, she ducked under the table to find the wood that Professor Walton had said was there. She wasn’t practicing yet, but she was going to be ready.

First she wanted to practice the wand movement. The not-finished W shape. Taking her wand out, she traced it in midair a few times, thinking about the incantation just so she didn’t feel like she was stupidly waving her wand around for no reason. She wasn’t good enough to cast it without physically saying the spell anyway, so thinking it shouldn’t be an issue. Once she was ready, though, she took a breath and pointed her wand at the piece of wood. “Diffindo!,” she cast, flicking her wrist and tracing the W-shape out again while she focused on the wood. Namely, cutting a piece off one end of it, and a brilliant grin appeared on her face as it happened. A tiny slice of wood separated from the rest. See? She didn’t need any help.
