Quickly and excitedly gesturing for everyone to take their seats, Professor Davershire began class for the day. "Transfigurations are not everlasting. The strength of a spell is heavily dependent upon the actual power within the wizard. If the caster is strong then the transfiguration will last for quite a long time. If the caster is weak then the transfiguration lasts for just a short time." She opened the drawer of her desk and pulled out the jar from the last class. The jar was full of all the beetles that they had transfigured into buttons. "These were your buttons." Professor Davershire said with a smile. "So the beetles came to their original shape after only a few hours, but some of them took days," she said proudly. "I can see that some of you are developing your powers wonderfully. Now who remembers covering the lesson in which transfiguration was discussed as a punishment used to turn offending wizards into statues?" Most of the class raised their hands. "We are going to do a very similar thing today," Professor Davershire added and moved behind her desk. She bent down, pulling up a a cage with lots of chipmunks confined inside. "There is one difference. These animals will not be left as a statue for a length of time. As soon as I have graded your work, I will transfigure them back. This will not harm the chipmunks, as these are the same animals we use year after year for this practice. They are well fed and cared for here within the school, many of them actually having lived longer than if they were in the wild." She knew her own fears on the topic when she was a student, and wanted to make sure to set any fears the students might have aside. She quickly began to pass the small creatures out after casting impedimenta on them so they would move much slower for everyone. They were live animals, and should be handled with care and the last thing she wanted her students to have to do is chase after them all period, possibly harming the animal or themselves. "Be careful and treat them with care. We don't want either of you harmed." "The wand moment is the same we did last week," said Ava as she walked around the room. "Visualize your chipmunk turning into a statue of any material, such as wood, stone, or metal and cast the spell. The incantation is 'Statua'. Have fun and if you have any problems, I will be around to help you out." She walked back to the front and held onto the last chipmunk in the cage, stroking it softly as she held it. Homework: RP transfiguring chipmunks into statues. Include a picture if you wish. |

The semester was in full swing and Aliyah was happy to fallen back into her normal routine. With the exception of her increased number of trips to the owlery to send notes to home, the second year was operating as business as usual with her weekly rotations of class, clubs, and homework. She sat ready at attention in her usual front row seat as Professor Davershire begun the lesson. Staring at the jar of beetles, she silently wondered how long her button lasted. Considering her beetle-button didn't look as much as button as she hoped it would, hers was mostly likely didn't hold up too well. As long as it wasn't the first to change, the second year would be content with the knowledge that she tried her best. Aliyah raised her hand when the professor asked about the punishment for changing people into status and was momentarily puzzled when she said that doing something similar. Once the cage of chipmunks appeared it was clear that turning them into statues was the day's mission. The Slytherin watched as the rodent slowly hopped around her desk. It was super cute and pictured make an even cuter statue in her mind. When the chipmunk paused to stand up and take a look around at its surroundings, the witch took the opprotunity to tap it three times and swished her wand. "Statua" The chipmunk began to freeze and glaze over turning into a small wooden painted statue. Pleased with her attempt, she examined her work and peered into its glassy beady eyes. She nearly jumped out of her seat when it blinked back at her. "Professor Davershire..." she raised her hand to get the Headmistress' attention. "I think I did it, but it is looking at me." she added pointed to her transfigured chipmunk. A small twinge of guilt racked through her. She felt like she paralyzed the creature. How confused it must feel. She waited as the teacher sorted out the situation and when the class period was over, she packed up and left the room. |
