Toby was prepared this time. Like, he KNEW that something would likely happen with this spell that was out of the ordinary. He had his second flowerpot ready to go, but was casting his gaze very quickly over the pumpkins that other kids had managed to grow. There was a big variety in the size of pumpkins, so did that mean this his one might grow huge, as well as fast? Could he repeat that trick? Because the Herbology enthusiast part of his brain wanted to see that done again.

So, here goes then...

"Vitari!"

Toby did his best to mimic that last casting of the spell, but instantly he knew he'd not been able to repeat it. The pumpkin started to grow, by no means slow but muuuuuuch steadier than that last one. Toby watched to see if it would get any bigger, like some others he saw, but when it stopped at roughly the same size at the last time, he still wasn't disappointed with the little guy. It had done its best.

He gave the pumpkin a reassuring pat to communicate those thoughts, before using the marker to label the flowerpot just like last time.

And there, that was his two done. For a moment, Toby cast a longing look at the other flowerpots, wanting to try the spell over and over again to see what results he'd get (ideally, a huuuuuuge, super-fast-growing pumpkin), but resisted the urge. It was meant to be for eeeeeveryone after all. And it was probably unwise to bury his feelings in pumpkins, because Toby was sort of aware that that had been part of the temptation.

So instead, he could go enjoy this party now. The boy Pluto, formerly known as Tobias, turned back to the room and sort of skirted round the edge a bit, looking for something to really delve into. Something fun. Or... or he could go eat lots of food; that was a viable option.
