Upon seeing a finger being pointed at him, Kayne couldn't help but chuckle a lit bit. The Slytherin boy lazily shrugged when the notion came up that transmutation and transfiguration were two separate things. Surely, the Professor still most likely understood what he had meant. Hopefully. Otherwise, Kayne really seemed dumb then. In which case he just had to step it up a bit to make sure that others weren't outshining him. Even though he knew that transfiguration was by far nowhere near his strong suit, Kayne still highly disliked being the worst at anything; including the things he didn't even really like.

When the Professor had announced the next activity for class, Kayne immediately got set to work, closely examining the three objects laid out before him.

First there was the leaf. In his mind, this would most likely be the easiest thing to transform. However, a question was raised inside the boy's head. Kayne couldn't help but wonder if this was some form of trick question. Was the leaf meant to throw the students off from the other two? Going down the list of information on the board, he cross examined the leaf with each variable. The weight was obviously lighter than both the ice cube and the stone. Viciousness had currently applied to none of the three as they were all inanimate in their current states. Concentration was the variable that tripped him up the most. Because concentration really also varied from person to person. Some people had it easier than others when it came to focusing on things, but, taking into account the rest of what was written down, the leaf would most likely be considered to be the smallest on the table. It had less mass than the other two, which Kayne also took into close consideration when coming up with his answer.

Then he moved onto the ice. Moving through that same process, the young rascal could tell that this was most likely going to either: A- the object that would be considered in the middle when it came to difficulty if the leaf was actually the easiest one to transfigure. Or B- that could actually be the easiest one to work with. One thing was certain about the ice cube, Kayne knew that there was a higher chance of the ice cube being easier to utilize than the stone. He was almost certain on this fact.

Lastly, he moved onto the stone. This object was by far, the heaviest of the three. So, using a form of point system for each variable, the stone would have the most points for weight. It all came down to concentration. After pondering over the information he thought about for the previous two, Kayne decided that the stone would most likely require the most concentration, so he was able to come to the conclusion, that the stone was definitely the hardest object to be subject to change.

Pulling out his quill and parchment, Kayne proceeded to write down his best guess at the answer to the question being posed.

SPOILER!!: Notes
