She glanced over at him with a smile when he suggested she hang the ornament on the tree. "Oh, yeah, cool!" she replied. She then proceeded to circle the tree a few times, an act which took a while to do seeing as the tree was so large and she was moving so slowly. She was studying each and every branch looking for just the right one. When she found it, she retrieved her wand and cast a little spell to cause the ornament to float up to the branch she'd chosen. When it was secure, she turned back to the groundskeeper and said, "All done."

That was when she caught sight of the other group of students who'd also been helping out in the Forbidden Forest. They looked as if things were going along just fine, so at first LouAnn just smiled and waved. "Hey, Cela, Kiri, and Raiden!" she greeted. Then things started to get a little shaky, and LouAnn could see that they needed help. "Ohh, erm...Cope?" she asked, turning towards the Ravenclaw boy who'd just helped her with the first tree. Then Professor Morgan instructed them to trust the pot, and even though she could see why they were so worried it would fall over, it probably would be best to just trust the pot.
