Her answer was right which caused Abbi to beam. You see the thing was she was far from silly, she just didn't tend to participate or pay attention but again she was really working on it this year. She even noticed others taking notes and attempted to do the some, nothing fancy just a few keywords here and there. That was good enough, wasn't it?

The next question he asked was easy enough, but as soon as Abbi wanted to mention her idea somebody else already had and then when she had thought of another such as for making things smaller within a potion, somebody else had said so first too.

Dramatic sigh. People today.

Moving along though, she said the word on the board as he began talking about it. All quietly, of course. "Di-min-u-en-do", she was barely audible.

Jars it was, yet Abbi had a question before she went to fetch one. Her hand raised and she then spoke. "Yes, Professor. Does the charm last forever?" You see she could do this concentrating thing, but she also had other reasons for wanting to know that answer.

With that the fifth year collected a jar and began to clean it. "Scourgify!" her oomph was just as encouraging as a first year as she performed the wand movement and marveled at her clean jar.

If anybody needed help well, she didn't look like a scary person to ask did she?
