Leo Fischer
Leo rolled his wand in his hand, waiting as the line edged forward. They had finished the written portion of the exam and had now moved on to demonstrations, the Levitation Charm first. Wingardium Leviosa was a spell everyone in the room had known since their first year. Leo was no different, and Charms was one of the two subjects he excelled in. When he reached the front of the line, he raised his wand with practiced ease and his movements, while not necessarily elegant, were efficient and clean. He spoke the charm without hesitation, watching as the feather lifted into the air. It rested in place for the required time, not moving an inch more than Leo let it, and then he lowered it back to the table.
The Cheering Charm was next in line. Leo was less enthused about the addition than the rest of the students. He didn't like the manipulation of emotions, no matter the purpose, but at least now they weren't required to partner with other students for the casting. The effects had to be monitored more closely now, because even if this was for moral, it was still technically part of the test. It was, however, clear that students were getting into the spirit of things. The charm was being cast on friends as the test went on, smiles gracing the faces of many in the room and the professors not moving to stop anything, though perhaps that would change if the casting got too out of hand.
Eventually Leo's turn came. He raised his wand towards the volunteer, casting the charm and watching as a large grin formed on their face. Leo nodded to himself, happy with the outcome. Though he hadn't practiced this charm too often, he'd controlled it well. There had already been a few volunteers escorted from the room, laughter coursing through them -more than Leo would have thought, but he suspected that could be attributed to the stress from certain recent events- and it had certainly risen the spirits of the students watching. And with his turn finished, Leo rejoined the line, watching as the remaining students cast their charms before the exam would move on to the Deprimo portion.
