Jade found the entire lesson highly amusing. Muggle magic tricks and Transfiguration - one of the hardest branches of REAL magic - who would have thought this would work?
After taking down relevant notes (not too much of those), it was time to practise the spells. The second year took out her wand and pointed it at the air in front of her. That was the difficult bit about conjuration - with transformation you could at least concentrate on one specific point, but with conjuration spells you just had to SOMEHOW produce things out of thin air. Jade obviously thought she was a very competent witch for her age, but she still struggled with conjuration. She was going to try her best, though. "Pileus Turritus," she said calmly. Nothing happened. "Pileus Turritus, Pileus Turritus, Pileus Turritus," she repeated, with more confidence in her voice and making sure to pronounce the incantation correctly. Still, she did not succeed in conjuring a top hat.
Come on, focus! Visualising a simple black Muggle magician's top hat in her mind, Jade inhaled deeply, performed the wand movement and said, "Pileus Turritus!" And... tada! A battered old top hat appeared on the desk in front of her. It wasn't exactly what she was imagining, but she did it! Woohoo!
