The problem with tests, assessments and really ANY kind of challenge... was that he was lost in his own little world. So unless someone was going to poke him, they no longer existed at the present time. It was him and the box, people, him and the box.

He inspected the box quickly, looking over it's sides, but then moved to secure the cabinet door from which it came. "Colloportus," he cast at it, content with the soft clicking sound it made to indicate it was locked. He tested it with his hand, just in case... but was quick to move on after he was successful.


...


Somehow though, it was no longer just him and his box, there were others in the room... and there was too much voice... and pleas for help. Sigh.

When she entered the last thing she was expecting was for the room to be empty. Why was it empty? Where was the desk, chairs, and all other object to help them learn?

There was obviously a reason why the room was empty and sure enough an explanation was written on a board. So this was some kind of challenge. She was always up for a good challenge, but she was a little hesitant to trying out her first spell EVER.

Oh man! Oh man! Oh man! What if it doesn't work.

Bella pulled out her wands and gripped it a little too tight as she nervously approached the cabinet.

"A...a....alohamora!" she said, pointing her wand at the cabinet. She forgot to give it a wave.

Nothing.

"Alohamora!" She tried again, but this time she waved it a little.

Nothing, still no click.

"What am I doing wrong?" She looked down sadly, trying to figure it out. Should she ask for help? She probably looked pathetic unable to do such a simple spell.


"Hey," he greeted the ickle Gryffindor. Yeah. You. Hi. "Don't be nervous, if you have uncertainties it might not work, speak confidently and clearly," he started with a general tip, yes. Simples, right? "Also make sure your intention is clear, visualise in your mind what you want to happen.... then, point and try again."
