Though the class is taking place at it's usual time, bright and early 9 am, there is something very different about the location. What? Well naturally even the least awake among you would notice that instead of standing in neat rows in Classroom 2E you are all headed out by the rickety wooden bridge that leads to the rest of the grounds. The trek out here should be a good waker-upper for those that need it.
The scene is as unassuming as any other with the exception of the area getting warmer and warmer as you approach. Yes, the Professor has taken care of that pesky little weather hitch that happens at this time of the year while you're here out on the grounds. There is still a bit of fog lingering but it's expected to clear up or be removed by the time the activity rolls around. The air is crisp and has a freshness to it that you couldn't get even with the wide windows of the classroom back in the classroom flung open as they usually are.
A peaceful morning really.
As you cross the grounds and come to a stop at the bridge, you find the Professor leaning against the railing with his eyes cast down into the ditch that lies below the bridge. Might be he's looking at something. Might be you can see it to. Just might be he's bored and waiting for his students to arrive; there's really only one way to find out.
Gather around, the lesson will be beginning shortly.
OOC: Class has not yet begun, be sure to brief yourselves on the rules once more before posting. I'll be moving this class in about 12-18 hrs hopefully ^^
COLORS? Man, this was gonna be RADICAL. Colors were some of Norah's number one most favoritest things in the entire universe, which was pretty convenient considering most of the stuff in the universe had colors too. She'd have to ask Quigley later if glitter counted as a color, but for now just practice, yeah? Maybe the Professor would help her with the glitter thing if she did extra well with the boring-er colors. That didn't mean they were boring, just boring-ER, but you really couldn't blame all the other colors for being boringer than glitter 'cause glitter was very hard to live up to. That was for sure.
She loosened her tie before lifting it up over her head, whispering the spell under her breath as she went. "Colovaria. Colovaria. Co-lo-va-ria." Easy peasy pudding and pie? Aw yeah. She had a good feeling about this one, considering she was practically a professional on this color stuff. The fourth year pointed her wand at the bright yellow tie and imagined it going bright red. Like a tomato! Except no because tomatoes were gross. Okay. Somethin' else. Geraniums! Geranium red. The super duper bright kind. Perfect. "Colovaria!" Norah watched the tie with eyes narrowed, waiting for it to turn the bright red she was thinking of. Aaaaaand it kinda did? Ish? Orange. That was deeeefinitely orange. Carrot orange or pumpkin orange or clownfish orange but certainly not Gryffindor red or geranium red, or even capital G Gross tomato red. Booooooo. At least she'd gotten somewhere, right? There was still hope for her being Princess of the Colors 'cause Norah Lillian Kittredge did not simply give up on the most importantest dream EVER. Princess of the Colots was a very big deal, okay?

Cool - they were going to learn how to change things to different colours! That was so cool! How many other things could she turn into different colours? What a cool way of keeping clothes fresh and fashionable? Zhenya would have to send a letter to Bianca and tell her about the spell, surely Bianca would like to keep her clothes the seasonable colour. She'd have no use for ties of different house colours, being that she was in her final year, and they didn't offer house changes, but perhaps if one of her younger siblings needed help with second hand clothes, hopefully not, she could be of use there. But how many other times could she use this spell? LOADS! Zhenya was really looking forward to changing some things in her wardrobe.
Zhenya took her Slytherin house tie off and held it in front of her. She'd do Ravenclaw first. Even though she'd practiced the wand movement LOADS of times with different spells, it always helped to practice. So, she held her wand at the tie, practicing the point, before holding it down to practice the incantation. "Co-lo-va-ria, Co-lo-va-ria, Co-lo-va-ria," she said a few times. That just came off the tongue easily.

Yeah, okay, so the Prof had a point. She hadn't shown up at his office because she wanted to go in ready to parlay, but maybe she'd never really be ready enough to discuss this topic. Not with an expert, nope.
But anyway. On to the topic at hand... practicing the charm. A color changing charm would be VERY helpful in the particular set of hobbies that Dot found interesting. Imagine being able to change thread and cloth so easily! Like this tie... her Slytherin tie. If she changed it to blue, could she pretend to be a Ravenclaw all day? Hmm?
"Col- col-o-varia." It was a little like chomping on marbles, wasn't it? Again. "Colovaria." Now... what color she she try first? Perhaps she'd like to be a Gryffindor for a while. Dot tried to think about red. Roses and apples and fall leaves and sunlight in her hair. Red red red.
"Colovaria." And the tie was... kinda red. Good job, Dottie.

Zhenya looked down at her green and silver Slytherin tie and pictured it as a blue Ravenclaw striped tie. She could picture it very well, because she'd seen the house colours almost every day for the past seven years. With that image locked into her mind, she pointed her wand at her Slytherin tie, "Colovaria," she said clearly, and watched as the tie suddenly became blue! Nice. She put it on, ignoring the green on her robes, and the Slytherin logo, and looked down. It didn't look as good as the green, but it did look good. She removed it again and decided to go with the house some of her favourite people were in; Hufflepuff!

INSPIRED EVEN, he said, WITH AN AMUSED HEAD SHAKE AND ALL. She simply beeeamed in reply to his response and, once again, was looking entirely too pleased with herself.
She loved this class.
Sophie Brown paid close attention to everyone else's answers, especially those of her friends. Most of them said they would be polite and keep it. Tobes' answer made her smile, but Zander's had her concerned. So... if she gave him something he didn't like, he would fake it to make her happy then shove it away, never to be seen again? That was... a little unnerving. She didn't want him to put on a facade for her. Consider this Ravenclaw disappointed. And... what was the deal with Cutty's answer? She didn't know what the word he corrected himself on meant, but she most certainly followed his gaze and noted Eden's reaction. What... was he doing to that poor girl?
She didn't dwell on those two long, since they were getting down to business. Colovaria, eh? Co-lo-va-ria... Co-lo-va-ria... She repeated the name in her head a few times to get it down and absorb the pronunciation, first and foremost. It sounded cool, seemed easily enough, and had useful enough effects. But... why were they outside to do this, hm? She was tempted to peek over the bridge to see whatever it was that Quigley kept not-so-subtly looking at, but she resisted for now. This was probably the kind of forthcoming activity that would be better off a surprise when the professor explained it.
And... for the ties. Sophie took hers off, now mumbling the pronunciation of Co-lo-va-ria under her breath, and admiring her tie fondly before giving Quigley a questioning sort of look - were they JUST supposed to aim for a solid color, like red, green, and yellow? Or were they allowed to try for a two-toned tie with BOTH house colors, with yellow and black for Hufflepuff, and so on? She didn't feel much like asking for permission, so for now, she was just going to give it a shot and possibly see for herself if she could get it to be two-toned instead of one solid color.
With Hufflepuff on the brain as cutiepie Norah was right beside her, Sophie pointed her vine wand at the tie in her hand, envisioned it as solid yellow, and cast, "Colovaria!" The tie was now a simple, bright shade of sunshine yellow, and then... she hummed. She could try for the two colors, then, right? Now that it was already yellow, she could envision the black lines alternating with the yellow. Easier that way, than changing it from her original tie to the two colors right off the bat. At least for now.
"Colovaria!" she tried again, envisioning a tie with black and yellow stripes... and there was SUCCESS.
So... one step at a time was a safe way to go, wasn't it? What if she tried for switching both colors at the same time next time?

Gifts that gave you pause...
Sure he had gotten a few of those over his even short lifetime. Adi's birthday gift to him a couple of years ago had certainly given Benny pause. But he wasn't sure what to say on the matter in answer to the professor's question. At least it seemed there were enough of his classmates willing to speak up in his absence. So the Gryffindor simply listened to the discussion going on around him.
And then they were onto a spell to learn. Colovaria...a color changing spell. Benny mentally tried to take notes since he wasn't in the best position to write anything down. At the direction to take off their ties, the sixth year obeyed, loosening it up at the knot before slipping it off up over his head. One step done, he just had to try out the spell they were being taught.
"Colovaria...Co-lo-va-ria....Colovaria...Co-lo-va-ria," he practiced the incantation over and over quietly. The point at the object you wanted to change, like the tie, was simple enough.
Kace was glad he got the answer right. I mean it was something he would do. Now as he heard the Professor go on and answer other students questions he kind of zoned out. As he heard the topic of the lesson, he grinned with glee when he learned they were going to be using the color changing charm. Wonder what he could do with that at his house. Oooohhh the possibilities. I mean he could possibly teach Braedon this spell too. He didn't think they were learning this at Durmstrang. Anyways onto the spell itself, he began to copy it into his notebook....
SPOILER!!: Kace's Notebook
Spell: Colovaria
Pronunciation: Co-lo-va-ria
Wand Movement: Point at target
There now that seemed simple enough. He began with pronouncing the spell because that was really important. He cleared his throat and began with the first set.
Alright three to four times should do the trick. He began to piece it all together and pronounced, "Colovaria." he nodded and got the hang of it. The wand movement was a simple point at the target. Simple enough for a seventh year. Now onto making changes to his tie.
She was staring at her tie. Right. "Colovaria..." easy. She cleared her throat and pointed her wand to her tie and...Oh. Did they just...think of the color? Eden bit her lip, looked around, and felt...too upset to ask Professor Quigley anything.
So she just...assumed that if they thought the right color, the spell would work.
"Colovaria..." she said softly, her wand pointing to her tie, thinking of yellow, the Hufflepuff color. It didn't work, but Eden wasn't very surprised. Her mood was shot, and since when had magic been easy for her when her mood was gooey?
"COLOVARIO!" she cried, this time with a bit more zeal, thinking AGGRESSIVELY of yellow. The tie immediately changed to yellow...oh good. That was nice. It looked nice. She wondered how she'd look in yellow. It might bring out her eyes more. Did she really need that? No, and Eden was currently trying to just blend in, anyways.
She also wanted to boycott doing a green tie.

What? They were going down the ravine later? Puck grinned at the idea, okay so maybe that would have scared a normal person but when had anyone ever ventured to call her normal? Still she hadn’t even answered the first question…but was going to now.
“I’d probably drop kick it off of a wooden bridge? You know if it was absolutely garish or really just uncalled for” she glanced around, “but if it were from someone I really rather liked or cared about I’d probably just store it in a box somewhere and wait until it came back in trend again and sell it as a ‘collectors’ item.” What? Sometimes horrendous things were worth money.
Still, it was time to move on. To cast spells…to learn! Puck listened to the spell and grinned. “Co-lo-va-ria….colo-varia…colovaria” there it wasn’t that hard.
Now, with the pronunciation down she could think of the color she wanted. Focusing with all her might, well not all, just some of it because she didn’t have to think that hard about colors…really, anyone who did probably wouldn’t finish the simplest of spells augamenti would be a drip from a broken faucet compared to anyone who well had a handle on it…or were more powerful than they were.
Thinking about the bronze and blue of Ravenclaw she simply tapped her wand against the tie “colovaria” she cast and grinned at her handiwork. “Awesome, it looks great.” One house down, three to go.

With the Hufflepuff tie colours in mind, Zhenya pictured them on the Ravenclaw tie, and she pointed her wand at the tie. "Colovaria," she said, and saw as the tie transformed, slightly differently than before. Where the Green and silver had just transformed the green to blue, this time it transformed the blue to yellow, and the silver to black. OOO she was holding a Hufflepuff tie for the first time ever! Well, she had only been holding the Ravenclaw tie for the first time ever, as well. Actually, she'd never held another house tie besides a Slytherin one. That was strange. Well, now that she had transformed the tie twice, she needed to do it just twice more. She pointed her wand at the Hufflepuff tie and pictured the Gryffindor colours of red and gold. Well, scarlet and gold. "Colovaria," she said, pointing to the Hufflepuff tie. The yellow transformed to red, and the black transformed to gold. Oh cool! That was a pretty house tie. Actually, Zhenya thought they all were. If she had been gifted any other house tie, she would have gladly accepted them. Just as mementos, really, as she couldn't actually wear them during lesson.
But now she had to transform it back to the Slytherin colours and put it back on. "Colovaria," she said, picturing her tie in her head. It was easy to picture as she had touched the tie, put it on and taken it off every day of her time at Hogwarts, and had seen all her housemates wearing the exact same colours. The red transformed to green, and the gold transformed to silver. She put her Slytherin tie back on.

This was interesting, really fun and interesting. Puck focused on the Ravenclaw blue and bronze tie in her hand she simply draped it about her neck before taking it off again. There, now, focusing on the hufflepuff colors she tried to picture the blue turning to black and the bronze well, to yellow. And as she did so she took her wand and tapped it against the tie “colovaria” she cast and watched the colors change.
Hey look. She’d look like a hufflepuff.
But that wasn’t what her idea was settled on, no, not at all.
She wanted to see if Slytherin colors fit her…because really, was she a Gryffindor? Was she really?

~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
Even more persons were thinking along the same lines as Adi, most of them Hufflepuffs which was no surprise, actually. Puffers were the nicest persons, yo! Anyway, he nodded enthusiastically at Quigley's reply. Yes, it could work.
Annnnd they were moving on! Awesomeee!
Aha. Colours, huh? Well, in Adi's opinion there wasn't a better colour than orange. He glanced at Benny. Benny always made for a nice target to practice spells and to test an assortment of potions on. The Badger wondered how the colour orange would suit his friend's complexion. Hehe.
Okay, so they were going to practice this on their ties? Alrightey! "Colovaria, Colovaria, Colovaria!'' he muttered as he removed his yellow tie. Pointing the wand was simple enough so Adi did not bother practicing that. He was going to get started now... with the Gryffindor tie! No surprises there!
''Colovaria!'' FOCUUUUUS on red! POIIIINT the wand annnnd the result? A red tie instantly. Now he had his Gryffindor tie to prove he belonged there. Hehe.
Two successful tweaks to her tie was nothing really extraordinary. She'd casted various charms on clothing before, and this one wasn't supremely difficult at all. So as she continued along, Sophie was pretty unexcited by this task. Sure, its uses were practical and it would come in handy, but... so far, it was a terribly boring activity.
She was certain that would change soon enough, though. Quiggles wasn't a boring man.
Squinting at her tie, she tried to envision it now as red - no, red and gold-striped, like the house colors of Gryffindor. Confidently, she cast with a point of her wand, "Colovaria!"
........
The tie was a solid color of auburn. Not red, not gold - auburn. One single color. WELP. Sophie quickly stole a glance at Zander to envision his proper tie color correctly and tried again, "Colovaria!" This time, her tie turned a nice shade of crimson. No stripes. So... apparently changing it from one combination of striped colors to another color combination of stripes wasn't as easy as she'd expected it would be. Meh.
Still, she wanted her two-toned tie, so she envisioned gold stripes on her already-red tie, and cast once more, "Colovaria!" The tie successfully alternated in red and gold stripes this time, which was great and all, but her morale was a little trampled. HOW COME IT HADN'T WORKED BEFORE? She was supposed to be TOP OF HER CLASS and DO EVERYTHING PERFECTLY. Sigh.

They were moving on to an activity already? Lux totally approved. An added bonus was that heights weren't in the least bit involved.
Smiling, she removed her tie so that she could get to work on changing it to different colours. Would Professor Quigley let hers stay red? Probably not, but then she did have a Gryffindor outfit that Puck had given her. Shrugging it off, she decided to give the spell a bit of practice even though she was already familiar with it.
"Colovaria... Colovaria... Colovaria..."
Okay, time to get started. Lux decided to start with Slytherin, so she focused all her energy into picturing exactly what their tie looked like with its green and silver stripes. Pointing her wand at her tie she said, "COLOVARIA!"
Thoroughly humbled by the morning's events already, Sophie kind of wanted to go sit down by the railing of the bridge away from everyone else and finish their assigned task, but she knew if she did she would inevitably peek at whatever Quigley had been looking at down there. She WANTED to be surprised, but getting too close would mean she wouldn't be able to resist the temptation. But sitting over there with her legs hanging over the sides and feeling the mild exhilaration from that would've cleared her mind and rebooted her system, essentially. She needed that kind of clarity.
She still didn't understand why she didn't have success with the multiple color attempt. She was a sixth year who should've been able to do something like that with ease. Maybe... maybe she just wasn't focusing well enough. Yes. She attributed it to that, to all the distractions that she was facing in her life in GENERAL and in the current class situation right now, too. Like... okay, she always wanted to have class outside, but now that they were actually OUT there, there was so much to look at and think about and she wasn't sure that she wanted to be outside anymore because it made her lose her concentration. She wanted to go run off and be a free bird, not stick with the group and actually do work.
But... the sooner she got this little activity done, the sooner it would seem that they moved onto a bigger, better activity, right? This was just a warm-up. So, with that in mind, Sophie pointed her wand at her currently red and gold tie and envisioned it to be a solid shade of emerald as she cast, "Colovaria!" The tie turned green, and... that was enough. She didn't need to add the stripes this time - she just wanted to be finished, so she focused very clearly on the original blue state of her tie as she cast once more, "Colovaria!"
A blue Ravenclaw tie she had once more, and she immediately plopped down to sit cross-legged on the ground as she put her tie back on.
Oh, how we drift away from our friends. And the ones back home play remember when
Cilla listened carefully to the Professor's instructions. She carefully undid her Slytherin tie whilst practising the incantation in her head. "Co-lo-va-ria, Co-lo-va-ria, Co-lo-va-ria," ran through Cilla's head. She grabbed her wand and aimed it at her tie that was in her left hand. As she focused on the colour of Gryffindor house she pointed her wand at her tie and said clearly, "Colovaria."
Now Cilla was holding a red tie in her hand. She smiled a small smile.
Oh nice, Professor Quigley agreed with him! And he was glad most of his Hufflepuffians too find it was impolite to throw away gifts no matter how horrendous they might be. Yup...he never once regretted the sorting hat's decision by putting him in this amazing and nicest house ever.
They were told to take off their ties so they could learn how to change their house tie colour. Cool...he couldn't wait to try out the spell. Henric grinned at his bestie,llia, and quickly loosening his tie."Feeling a little hot in here, don't you think? You better take that tie off then,"he teased and gave her a wink. Haha! His flirt jokes were so corny, he laughed at himself next for actually coming up with it.Seriously..Henric....
Once his tie was off, Henric held up his tie and pointed his wand with his other hand at it. He imagined turning his tie into a solid green in colour, similar to llia's tie colour, concentrating silently and chantering the spell for it in his head.
"Colovaria,"Henric said and watched as his yellow stripes on his tie slowly transition itself into a green one."Brilliant!"he exclaimed, excited that he got it right on his first try. Henric turned to llia and put on his tie again to show her,"Do I look like one of you,llia?"he grinned and posed, acting like the moody boy-version of llia.

Colovaria. Okay, that sounds easy enough. The incantation, wand movement, and intent was all too easy for the young man. Shouldn’t be a problem at all. What made him think things over however, was the gifting part. He sure can just accept it, give the person a grin, and hide the hideous thing forever. Unless of course it had something to do with Starwars, then he will do something about it.
As instructed, Ethan loosened his tie and coiled it around his left hand. “Colovaria.” He said as he pointed at his tie while thinking of the Gryffindor colours, but nothing happened. Seriously? A first year can do THAT spell. Okay, maybe he needed more breakfast? Can the professor spare some apples? No? Okay. Fine. Ethan refocused his mind on his task, and visualized his tie in scarlet red and gold. “Colovaria.” Red tie. The Slytherin uncoiled his tie and hung it around his neck. Hmm. Does he look good in Gryffindor colours? Why yes of course. He looks grand in any colour.

That was a lot of discussion for a simple question. At least, Brooklyn was still convinced that the question had been simple. A horrendous gift was one that was unwanted, and she didn’t see a point in trying to transform anything like that into something else. It was simpler to just get rid of it, destroy it even. Much more pleasing, too. Although she knew there were some things she hadn’t been able to get rid of in the past. There probably would be in the future too, but they’d finally moved on from gifts in the lesson. Sort of.
She didn’t know why they needed to bother changing their tie colors. “Colovaria, co-lo-va-ria, colovaria,” she mumbled to herself as she’d loosened the tie around her neck and finally draped it over the railing of the bridge. She liked being a Slytherin, so the bridge could experience what it was like being in the other Houses.
Except…maybe red wasn’t that bad. She could really be a Lannister then. So she’d try to change her tie to red first. Not to represent Gryffindor. To represent other things. Pointing her wand at the unassuming green tie hanging on the railing, she spoke again, clearer this time and while she focused on the chosen colors. “Colovaria!” Lannister colors. That was what she wanted, and she grinned a little as the green changed into a deep crimson. She was almost tempted to put the tie back on like that and just pretend she hadn’t been asked to try the spell for the other two Hogwarts house colors. Or…she racked her brain for different comparisons. Whose colors included yellow and whose included blue…

Cilla now was ready to change the red tie into a yellow tie. She knew that if she focused on "Hufflepuff" then the spell might not work because when Cilla thought of that particular house, the colour yellow was not usually in those thoughts.
Instead, the young witch decided to focus on sunflowers, the sun and canaries. These made her think instantly of the colour yellow. Cilla pointed her wand at her red tie, focusing on a mental image of a field of sunflowers and clearly said, "Colovaria."

What IF he was in Gryffindor though? Will he be the same person if he got sorted there? Probably not. Given his inquisitive nature, he just might get himself in trouble in no time. The Lions were known to be reckless. Not that it bothered him, as long as he’s not involved in their shenanigans.
Ethan got his tie once more and held it in front of him. Should he try yellow next?
At the thought, the Slytherin grinned to himself because he suddenly remembered Ella and Alec. Mordred is buddies with them, so it wasn’t coincidental that he knows the power couple. Ella and Alec were great huggers too. He’d been lucky enough to be cuddled by both former Hufflepuffs. With them in mind, Ethan pointed his wand at the red tie, and said the incantation. “Colovaria.” The scarlet tie turned into yellow and black.

Exactly, Professor Quigley. Exactly.
Clara listened intently, still stifling yawns here and there, but becoming more alert and observant as the promise of charms and practising drew nearer. Colovaria was actually one charm she had found use for in the past; when charming snow globes as gifts last year, she'd needed to change the colour of the 'confetti' inside .... and, she'd managed that without too many problems.
SPOILER!!: Eden
Eden tried her best to ignore Cutty as of late. However....as he spoke....Eden glanced his way, and unfortunately, saw the way he was looking right at her. Dented..."trumpet," was she? She bit her lip and tried to keep her face as blank as remotely possible.
She stepped closer to Clara, and looked at her feet. Right. Her cheeks were flushed with a mixture of anger and....something else. She had half a mind to walk back to the castle. Could she feign sickness? She wanted to. Cutty Mordaunt had succeeded in making Eden's day turn sour. She was sure he'd be delighted to know that, though.
Before she got all emotional, though, Quigley was moving on, and Eden just glared at Cutty for minute more before turning her gaze to the professor. She saw you, Cutty. She did. Eden would not forget this. Dented trumpet. "You can still play a dented trumpet...you can't play a trumpet with its buttons missing. " She said softly, but loud enough for Cuthbert to hear.
And that as all she'd give him, for now.
They had a spell to practice. Eden pulled her tie off and just stared at the Ravenclaw colors...the overwhelming feeling of wanting to leave was so strong...ugh. But she had to stay and practice this spell. Maybe she could turn Cutty's robes red--no. NO. She was not going to do anything. She would be a bigger woman. She would act mature and adult about this.
"Colovaria..." it was easy enough. Eden kept repeating it to herself...over and over again...trying NOT to look at Cutty. Where was Clara? She needed Clara...[/QUOTE]
Before she could get started, however, out of the corner of her eye she noticed Eden move closer to her. "Eden?" Cue concerned best friend. She followed Eden's gaze and realised who was bothering her. Cutty. Uh, just typical. "Ignore him," she urged, stepping forward to block Eden's view of him. "Let's just prove how good we can be with this charm. Okay?"
Clara decided to go for a Hufflepuff yellow first. After muttering 'Colovaria' a couple of times under her breath she loosened her tie and pulled it off, tying it around one of the bridge's beams to give her something more practical to aim at. Now for the mental imagery. In her mind she pictured her Ravenclaw-blue tie turning a brilliant shade of yellow and kept picturing that. "Colovaria," she said, her wand pointed at the tie, and watched as it did exactly what she had imagined it would.
Ha, she still had it.

Next was the blue that represented Ravenclaw house. Cilla focused her mind on the colour itself and not the house. As images of a clear blue sky and bluebirds floated around in her mind, Cilla pointed her wand at the golden tie and said, "Colovaria." The tie was now a deep blue.
Cilla then pointed her wand at her tie for the final time, focused on the colour of a lush, green meadow and said, "Colovaria," which transformed the blue tie back to Slytherin green. She quickly yet carefully put her tie back on.

Hady gave a smile towards the Professor. It may not have been the correct answer but it was a liked answer which was good enough for her. Shifting slightly to lean against the railing of the bridge she listened what they'd have to be doing. There wasn't much to it really. A point of the wand, a firm though of the color and then the incantation.
Loosening the knot in her tie that hung around her neck Hady then slipped it over her head. Kneeling down on the ground she set the tie on her knee to make things easier. "Colovaria...colovaria," Hady practiced repeating the word several times. When she thought she had it perfect she removed her wand from it's holster on her wrist.
Clearing her throat she pointed her wand at the tie sat on her knee. She'd start with Hufflepuff. Picturing the tie as yellow as the sun with black strips she spoke clearly, "Colovaria!" Right before her eyes her green and silver tie changed to yellow and black. She was now holding a perfect Hufflepuff tie.
Angel smiled at the Professor as he spoke to her but then the smile went away the Professor was totally upset about something or something was going on she could tell but she wasn't going to ask about anything because she had a feeling she might get told off for being nosey.
"Colovaria!" Angel practiced saying the incantation. "Co-lo-va-ria... Co-lo-va-ria!" Angel was totally happy about this, she had no idea what she was going to do. "Colovaria!" Angel now had to take off her tie.
Angel took of her tie and then she pointed her wand at it, she thought about the colour yellow... she had always wanted to try out a Hufflepuff tie, just to see what it was like.
She focused on the colour yellow as she continued to point her wand at the tie. "Colovaria!" Angel looked at the tie and smiled it was instant and the tie was now Yellow, how awesome was that.
