 ~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
Claudine decided that speaking to plants was almost like speaking to animals. Except that plants don’t usually respond. In this case, the plant she was working with did not. With reassurance to the little fellow out of the way, the Snakette pointed her wand at it. “Lumos,’’ she said in the usual commanding, confident manner. Her focus wasn’t on a bright, startling beam of light. Instead, she tried to picture that soft version Flamsteed spoke of.
She really went all out to maintain focus when her wand was illuminated. That was the challenge. But Claudine managed it, and she was proud. Slowly, the petals began to move. They were indeed opening up now. |
