 Anashti l Brat Pack l Sally & Dr. Finklestein
Mouse only realized she'd fallen a bit behind on learning spell two when she heard Professor Carton calling for attention for the third one. She'd clearly spent too much time on her cardboard - turned - wooden - planks. One had come out a decent shade of a red wood as she'd been trying to visualize, but it was clear that her attempts of adding design for added interest was not a good idea when it came to the timing of things. So after listening to instructions for Taque, it was time to just jump straight into the most straightforward approaches.
Grabbing her pipe cleaners, Mouse focused on this next - testing the word in her head as she separated one from the others and laid it out in front of her. "Palus" She said as a test, feeling satisfied with how the word sounded the same as Professor's before she added her wand movement. A simple flick, was the instruction, which was what she did with the combined word. "Palus!" This one had been much easier, as try one and a pole sat in the place of a pipe cleaner. Mouse smiled a bit, before taking a few more of the cleaners and doing the same to those as practice.
Satisfied with her work there, she jumped into the last one. The word's pronounciation seemed a little more difficult, so she set aside a minute longer just to practice and pay attention to how her mouth formed the words. "Ta-Kay, Ta-kay, Ta-kay... Taque". Once she was feeling a little more confident, wand made it's way back into her hand and she pointed it at the first button, another flick. "Taque!" Hmmm... not as successful this time. A small crease in her brow, and she tried again. "Taque!" Still nothing. Practicing the flick a few more times and clearing her mind of anything other than a simple nail, she tried for a third attempt. "Taque!"
And there was the money. Another smile as a nail sat in it's place. Sighing in relief that she was semi caught up, the Ravenclaw moved on to the other buttons - giving herself more practice.
