A-Ah...

[Said uninspired nonsense has absolutely worked, unfortunately, if the way Constance's cheeks immediately go red has anything to say about it. To pass Level 1, but trip instantly at Level 2...how terribly embarrassing...]

You are...too sweet, Hilda...

[As much as she would love to insist that that was flirting, definitely, that was definitely her responding to that flirting...

...not quite. It's enough to get Constance to step away for a moment, to try and get herself back under control.]


Oh, I completely fumbled it, didn't I! You're far too good at this!

[She's always been a firm believer in practice makes perfect (unless you're already perfect, which in many ways she is!), so it would make sense that a woman like Hilda - who makes all this look so easy, you'd think she sprung from the womb ready to charm the midwives - would be incredibly good at it. But still! Why is it so simple to master complex spells from complicated textbooks, but this...something that should be so straightforward and easy is causing her to completely unravel?!]
