 Left Snake Piñata ~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
More and more birds were joining the surroundings. They weren’t nature’s birds but birds conjured by her classmates. Was it possible to panic when one was falling behind on their spellwork? Duh. Questions like: what if I never conjure a single bird? What if I never conjure anything in general? ran through her mind.
But persistency was in her blood and so Claudine would continue trying. A deep breath was taken then she brought up the image of a macaw in her head. “Avis.’’ A strong, confident incantation, an accompanying bird/m-shaped wand movement later, a bang and a puff of smoke later, there were two small macaws fluttering around.
Her eyes widened in surprise. Granted, the birds were smaller than she had pictured, but hey, at least Claudine was finally successful. “Oppugno.’’ The wand was directed to the appropriate Slytherin pinata. |
