Transfiguration Talent
Early May, 1990
First Year
"Could I have your attention please? Today, we will be transforming objects into a bird. Like so. One, two, three. Avifors." With a wave of her wand and a flash of blue light the small orange statue on the stool in front of the black board became a small orange bird with a bluish beak.
The bird chirped and flew around the room before settling above the door. Professor McGonagall left them to their own work. The classroom was abuzz with spell activity. Flashes of blue light lit the room and by the end of class several students had managed to turn their statues into brightly colored birds.
Jo was discovering her knack for transfiguration and her bird had taken a liking to her, hopping around the desk and chirping. Leili however was discovering her lack of talent for transfiguration and had managed by the end of class to turn her statue into a bird, however her bird remained stone.
Leili stole a mildly jealous glance at Jo's bird and nudged Jo with her shoulder, "Lucky duck."
