The first thing you notice as you walk into the charms classroom is that the tables and chairs have been pushed into a ring around the walls, creating a large open space in the middle the room.

"Good afternoon class," a worn-looking Professor Branxton greeted he class. "Today we will continue to perfect the Diary Charm wand movement and then introduce the incantation. Please take out your wands and demonstrate the movement for me as I walk among you."

Cassandra shook her head watching the first year Ravenclaw with his wand.

She wanted to test the notebook, but the Professor hadn't told them how to set the password... what would hers be...

griffin_girl · 08-10-2007, 09:27 PM

Clow-saltus...Ofrimo...OBFIRMO! That's it!

Mallory clapped her hands together as she remembered the spell.She gripped her wand tight, and with the wandmovement practiced earlier, she tried doing it with the incantation. "Clausaltus Obfirmo" she stated. "I think that was right..." she said, covering the tip of her wand with her other hand. I'll have to try that spell on my journal tonight...she thought, smiling to herself.

Jezz took out her wand and did the motion a few times before saying, "Clausaltus Obfirmo!" She wasn't sure if she had done it right becase she had no clue what was supposed to happen. Her note book still looked the same though.

Golden Monkey · 08-10-2007, 09:28 PM

Ariana had been practising the wand movements for a very long time and was sure she had it right. Now for the hard part, saying the incantaton. She took a deep breath and began to mutter the spell under her breath "Clausaltus Obfirmo" Hm, it seemed difficult getting the oh sound right she thought frowning slightly as she put down her wand and began trying it out again. "Clow-sal-tus Ob-firm-o" she muttered quietly to herself, memorizing the incantation with every being of her soul.

She kept repeating the word over in her mind, thinking she was finally ready to try it out. Picking up her wand, she swirled it three times in a circular pattern, than gave it two quick flicks, before pausing and ficking slowly. "Clausaltus Obfirmo" she said with a strong voice. Nothing seemed to happen, but she wasn't too surprised either, she had a feeling she messed up the wand movement again.

Antwone Thomas · 08-10-2007, 09:28 PM

Antwone looked again over to the older Slytherin girl and noticed her shaking her head at him. So that's why she answered my question! She wasn't helping me, she was showing me up. Still Antwone left his hand raised for the professor.

*PhoenixRising* · 08-10-2007, 09:50 PM

Amelia shook her head sadly, that wasn't right... it just didn't seem right to her. why couldn't she think straight today? Must be that secret party she had coming up very shortly. She sighed, as she listened to Ariana say the correct spell. She smiled at her friend, and then tried to mimic her by sounding each syllable out carefully. "Clow-salt-tus Ob-firm-o" She shook her head again, knowing she added an extra letter in the first word. Her mind just was not with it today.

Biochemkris · 08-10-2007, 09:59 PM

Doyle raised his voice. "You should NOT be using your wands at this time. We are learning this charm in stages and we are not yet ready for the full spell. We haven't finished learning all there is to learn so, put your wands down and practice the timing with just your hand.

"Clausaltus obfirmo," Professor Branxton incanted while demonstrating the wand motion with his empty hand).

krazypenguin · 08-10-2007, 10:02 PM

Jezz dropped her wand back into her bag. "Clausaltus obfirmo!" she said, doing the movements with no wand. She thought she had it down, but was unsure so she she kept practicing. Her headache was back though, and the bruise across her forehead was still slightly visible.

Antwone Thomas · 08-10-2007, 10:03 PM

Yikes! Antwone quickly stuffed his beech wand inside his robes and started practicing with his empty left hand.

GlassXRose · 08-10-2007, 10:04 PM

The professor's voice made Ponessa jump slightly, but then again, everything did. She continued practicing the incantation-she wanted to make sure no mistakes were made, "Clausaltus obfirmo, Clausaltus obfirmo..." She repeated softly.

Golden Monkey · 08-10-2007, 10:08 PM

Ariana chided herself as she put her wand away in her pocket, silently fuming. Shaking her head again, she tried saying the correct enunciation of the spell "Clausaltus obfirmo." she repeated silently to herself, concentrating on her and no one else. She was going to pay attention if it hurt she thought with a nod as she practised. "Clausaltus obfirmo." she said again, not looking in any direction but in front of her, feeling her self-confidence lower even further. She was having a horrible day.

griffin_girl · 08-10-2007, 10:08 PM

Mallory quickly pocketed her wand, and began practicing the movement once again. Clausaltus Obfirmo...she repeated over and over in her mind, as to not to forget.

Accio Firebolt · 08-10-2007, 10:10 PM

Esmeralda put her wand down and without the wand, she said "Clausaltus obfirmo!" quite clearly. "I think I got this." she muttered.

*PhoenixRising* · 08-10-2007, 10:13 PM

The loudness in the Professor's voice made Amelia jump, even though her wand was still on the desk near her. No wonder his children were missing; they were probably scared of their father's wrath. She silently chuckled to herself, sighing, and then tried again with the incantation. "Clow-sal-tus Obturator" She shook her head again, that last word definitely it isn't right, but what was the second word? Amelia racked her brain, but could not think of anything but random muscles and nerves. She totally was going to be a healer when she graduated.

Golden Monkey · 08-10-2007, 10:21 PM

Once Ari had the saying right, she went back to praactising the wand movement with a quill, knowing nothing could happen with a quill. Waving the quill in a circle three times, she than proceeded to flick twice before pausing, than gave a long slow flick upwards, still not quite absolute on the ending. Her quill slipped from her fingers and she stooped to pick it up, shaking her head at her clumisness. Trying again, she tried again, circling her "wand" three times before giving two quick flicks, a pause and another slow flick upwards, while saying "Clausaltus obfirmo" over and over.

laudienne · 08-10-2007, 10:32 PM

Lauren took a breath after practicing the wand movement with an empty hand in conjuction with the incantation. It was hard for some reason to do both at once and, because of that, she was glad they hadn't been allowed to use their wands yet. Gathering up more motivation {yes, Lauren, you will be able to do this - just practice!}, Lauren swirled her wrist clockwise three times, round and round and round, then used her wrist to make her clenched hand {which was still wandless} create two quick, sharp flicks. She paused, then recited, "Clau-sal-tus Ob-firm-o!" Then she finished with one final, flourishing flick of her hand. She smiled slightly - she didn't think that one went too poorly. Still, she pushed the sleeve of her robes out of the way, closed her hand as if she were holding an invisible wand, and began again.

*PhoenixRising* · 08-10-2007, 10:33 PM

Amelia listened in on her classmates practicing the spell, hoping that it would trigger something in her memory as to what the second word was. Obfirmo. Of course it is. She then recited the full phrase before she confused herself again, "Clausaltus Obfirmo. Clausaltus Obfirmo." She grinned broadly, knowing she finally got the incantation down; well, at least she thought she did.

Biochemkris · 08-10-2007, 11:14 PM

Professor Branxton took a seat behind his desk, removed his glasses and held them loosely in his hand as his elbow rested on the desk. He rubbed his eyes and then put his other elbow on the desk as well, bowing his head, supporting it in his hands. He needed to find his children. He hated being in here teaching when he should be out looking for them.

SweetAussie · 08-10-2007, 11:18 PM

After a lot of practice of the spell Agie believed that she had mastered it. She noticed that the professor look really down so she went over and asked "Is everything alright , professor?"

Thump0427 · 08-10-2007, 11:57 PM

Clausaltus obfir- what? This ones odd.. Thump closed his eyes and took a deep breath, shutting out and ignoring mess of mis-pronunciations around him. Raising his empty hand and going through the memorized movements once more he attempted the spell again only letting it out in a small murmor to himself. "Clausaltus obfirmo..Clausaltus obfirmo.." he repeated over and over timing it with his wand movements. He smiled to himself and lowered his hand.

Cracking open an eyelid and looking around at the rest of the class he chanced a look at the Prof. again. "Man Branxton sure is looking rough...this whole kid thing must be a pain...clearly someone needs to invent some sort of wizard leash spell or something" he said quietly to himself with a bit of irony "If I had any idea id offer to help look for them but-...ehh..maybe I will..after the lesson...or at least go talk to him. Parents im sure tend to beat themselves up when stuff like this happens" he mulled over before opening the rest of his eyes and turning back to the class waiting for further instructions.

Christian kept doing the movement. In his head was turn, turn turn, flick, flick, pause, and flick. While muttering the spell. Every know and then he messed up the incantation, but he kept trying. Usually he'd be annoyed by now, but he was actually pretty cool. He just wished he knew where his cat was. He took a mental break and saw that professor dude needed a break of his own. He gave the professor dude an encouraging smile and went back to practising the movement and spell. Without really paying attention, he did the movement (turn, turn, turn, flick, flick, pause, flick) and said the incantation (Causaltus Obfirmo) with awesome timing.

Score.

i m a g i n e · 08-11-2007, 12:19 AM

Eternal wiggled in her seat, thinking about how Braxton's babies were missing. They needed to find them. She heard some noises on the Sixth floor, but it couldn't have been the babies.

She shrugged and looked over at a fellow Ravenclaw that was talking about the subject she had just been thinking about. "That would be nice, for you to talk to him. Be reassuring." She nodded while smiling.

pgspickles · 08-11-2007, 12:20 AM

Pauline used her finger as a wand and did the motions while saying the spell. "Clausaltus obfirmo" she said and hoped what she was doing right, but really she wouldn't know until she got to use her wand. She would not use it though cause testing Proffesor Braxton would put her in great danger of his wrath and she preferred not to be in that direct line of path.

She continued praticing until he gave the next instructions. As she waited she noticed not many people were in this class. Maybe that was why he wasn'y saying much.

momentai · 08-11-2007, 12:36 AM

Christian train of concentration was broken was a hufflepuff suddenly burst into the room. Great...right when I was getting the hang of it..., he thought and gave the hufflepuff and look of pure loathing. He joined in with the other two Ravenclaws,
"She's right. He looks like he could use a nice pep talk." He said while practising the routine once again.

Torchwood · 08-11-2007, 12:47 AM

Qaz kept trying to perform the charm. 'Clausaltus Obfirmo' with the wrist movement. It reminded her to much of conducting the flutophone band last yeaer in her muggle school.
