Listen to me, please sit down and stay-
I'm gonna build a house and hide away!
Gather timber from the ground...
I'll build a castle that won't fall down.
And when I'm done the clock will stop and from,
Our heads will come bright flowers.

BLOOD TRAITOR │ FORMER HUFFLEPUFF │ CHARMS PROFESSOR
Elsie taught the sixth years and third years on Thursdays, and she was hoping her morning class would naturally be the more composed and mature of the two classes. Then again, she remembered her sixth year... She studied the board, making sure she had everything she'd wanted up there on it: in one corner the class rules were neatly outlined; in another the homework assignment, in yet another the supply list, and in the final corner, a doodle that looked like it had been scrawled by a student and smudged over, as the students began to enter the room. "Good morning everyone," she greeted the class when everyone had taken their seats. "First I want to congratulate you all on your OWLs, and for choosing to continue with this subject for these next two years. I'm Professor Shoichet, and I'll be preparing you for your NEWTs next year, but as you're all nearly adults, you'll be expected to in turn prepare yourselves for the exam." Elsie thought she might as well get that out of the way now; they didn't need her to coddle them, if they were serious about taking an advanced charms exam. "I do need everyone to give me their name and house, so I can get a sense of who is who, and if anyone has any comments on the OWL or questions about the NEWT, feel free to speak up." She was trying to be a bit more straightforward and serious with the older years, seeing as this was a bit more intense than say, the second year curriculum. Nonverbal magic was not to be taken lightly, and she was pleased with the changes to the subject matter that had been made since she was a student herself.
I don't know, I can't contain my heartbeat-
I am dancing, shrouded by green trees!
I am whirling, wearing my sun feet;
And humming children to sleep.
I love to watch the light you spread to the room...
See how it dances from you to me to you. |

S H O I C H E T BLOOD TRAITOR │ FORMER HUFFLEPUFF │ CHARMS PROFESSOR Elsie didn't have to much preparation for the practical part of this lesson, aside from procuring a box of candles, and so seemed rather relaxed when the sixth years entered, finishing writing Aguamenti in turquoise chalk on the board. "Good afternoon, class," she greeted them enthusiastically, and went down her list for attendance. "Hannah, to answer your question last class about the NEWT, the exam is entirely practical, meaning you will be graded solely on your actual demonstration of the charms. I cannot tell you what charms you will be tested on, of course, but they are designed to be rigorous tests of school. They should not, however, be landing anyone in the hospital wing- studying to the point of exhaustion will not help you during the exam. I would suggest that all of you come up with studying plans for next year, and pace yourselves depending on your total amount of exams." She looked up, raised an eyebrow, and then stood up to go to the board.
"You all learned incendio as first years, but as aguamenti, the water-conjuring charm, is far more difficult, you are learning it now. That's essentially the definition: it creates a stream of clear water, the force of which varies depending on your intent and skill level. This charm is also technically a Transfiguration spells, as conjuring is an advanced form of the transfiguring. It creates, rather than transforms."
The blonde woman turned back to the board to draw the wand movement for the charm.
"The pronunciation is AGUA-menti. Come up and take a candle from my desk, light it, and get started."
I don't know, I can't contain my heartbeat-
I am dancing, shrouded by green trees!
I am whirling, wearing my sun feet;
And humming children to sleep.
I love to watch the light you spread to the room...

S H O I C H E T BLOOD TRAITOR │ FORMER HUFFLEPUFF │ CHARMS PROFESSOR There was a noticeable chill in the room; all of the windows were wide open. Elsie was warm enough at her desk, thanks to a warming charm cast on the area, but shuddered a little as she stood after taking attendance and collecting the homework. A few birds had been doodled on the blackboard.
"Good morning everyone! I apologize for the windows, but we'll get to that soon enough. Today we'll be learning the bird-conjuring charm, or, avis." She approached the blackboard, chalk in one hand, wand in the other. "Avis is technically a form of advanced transfiguration, as it conjures living beings into existence. This alone makes it exceptionally difficult to master, and thus a NEWT level charm. The side effects of miscasting avis can be extremely... grotesque, so I'd advise everyone to pay close attention," the blonde added in warning. She did not want to be cleaning up severed bird heads at the end of class.
"Avis shoots birds from the tip of the wand, and makes a sound much like a muggle gunshot, smoke and all. The light should be pure blue, and the incantation is AH-viss, not AI-viss. The wand movement even looks a good deal like a bird in flight." Elsie drew it quickly on the board:
"Now, I want everyone to come up to these windows, and cast outside. I don't want anyone being attacked by birds, birds hitting the ceiling and walls, or having to clean up feathers when we're through."

Fianna Grey
Gryffindor │ Sixth Year │ Sixteen Years Old │ Single
Fianna was in a good mood, knowing she needed on to get through these next two periods, and aside from one class on Friday she had the weekend free. Not that she was slacking, she'd do all her homework and studying ahead today and tomorrow, but then the weekend was her's. Charms was one of those classes she actually liked, as the work came easily for her, and she liked Professor Shoichet. Fianna raised her hand, and offered, "Fianna Grey, Gryffindor House. I have a question, Professor Shoichet. I've heard the Charms NEWT is entirely a practical exam, and there's no written portion. Is that true? My older cousin told me she took all her exams Wandless; is that a requirement for the Charms NEWT if we're also taking Professor Denier's NEWT class as well?"
     Turn your magic on, to me she'd say
"Everything you wants a dream away
We are legends, every day"
That's what she told me
Turn your magic on, to me she'd say
"Everything you wants a dream away
Under this pressure, under this weight
We are diamonds"

I can't sleep tonight. Wide awake and so confused. Everything's in line, but I am bruised.
I need a voice to echo. I need a light to take me home. I kinda need a hero, is it you?

Monika entered the Charms classroom and immediately took her seat. She was having a decent day so far. She had a lot of classes, as she had for the last several years, but it wasn't anything she couldn't handle. She took out her textbook, setting it on her desk to do some reading, figuring they weren't going to be doing much more than a review of some sort today. Their professor congratulated them all on making it this far, all of them having to have scored high enough on their OWL exams to attend this class. She then asked if anyone had any questions about the exam, which Fianna Grey took her up on. Monika, however, didn't have any questions. She had earned a perfect score on her OWL, having prepared for it very well, and thus didn't have anything to ask about it. Instead, she took the time to start reading and preparing for the next lesson.

Fianna Grey
Gryffindor │ Sixth Year │ Sixteen Years Old │ Single
With the weekend nearly in her sights, Fianna was in a good mood, knowing she needed on to get through these next two periods, and aside from one class on Friday she would have her weekend free. She'd found it odd being called by older sister's name last class; the red-haired Gryffindor couldn't recall ever being mistaken for tall, willowy, indigo-haired Hannah, but then the professor had many students and it was easy to get them mixed up. As it was, she got a partial answer to her question, and for now it would suffice.
After taking down her lecture notes, Fianna went up and collected a candle from the box on Professor Shoichet's desk. Gesturing with her fingers she lit the candle with a simple, quick incantation, before going back to her desk to get busy with the class assignment. Taking Alchemy helped her with this class, as it gave the young lioness more confidence when it came to tackling advanced spellwork.
Practicing the wandwork and the incantation a couple times, Fianna cleared her throat, and intoned, "Aguamenti!" Like a frog's tongue flicking out, a jet of water erupted from the tip of her wand, snuffing the flame in the moment it existed. Pleased with her work, Fianna dried the candle so she could practice the spell again.
Turn your magic on, to me she'd say
"Everything you wants a dream away
We are legends, every day"
That's what she told me
Turn your magic on, to me she'd say
