Silvain frowned at that.
"...What kinda spell?" he asked, curious. Part of him was indeed genuinely curious, but another part was suspicious. That wasn't unusual for him, but this time his suspicion had a reason. Regardless of what this guy said, he was still Slytherin, and could very possibly be completely lying about everything just to get him in trouble or teach him a spell he either shouldn't know or one that would backfire on him and get him in major trouble.
Still...curiosity was the stronger of the two forces, the ever-present Ravenclaw curiosity to learn something new.

Malachy smiled, "It's called the Patronus Charm. It is used for two thing's that I am aware of. one os to care messages and the other," He paused for a moment he needed to think of the right words. "It is also yous to repel the most vile and evil magical creature in the wizarding world. It any one but that creature the spell is completely harmless."
He could tell that the first year was suspicious and decided that a demonstration would be in order. He brought forth the memory of his own first kiss, and before the boy next to him could react in protest he pulled out his wand and pointed it at Silvian from under the table. "Expecto Patronum." He said in a calm but strong whisper.
Suddenly a glowing silver cobra burst from the tip of Malachy's wand and passed strait through the other student as if it where a ghost. Instead of passing on the feeling of cold and discomfort that contact with a ghost had, it emitted emotion of warmth and happiness. The snake twisted around the Ravenclaw and hung weightlessly around his shoulder. It's hooded head turned and looked at with its peicing while globes for eyes. and it began speaking in Malachy's voice. "Everyones Patronus has a different shape but each has the same purpose." It said clearly. Malachy withdrew his wand and the serpent vanished. "So what do you think?" He asked with his own mouth.
(if this was to much power play, tell me and I'll change it.)

((Nope, that works.))
Silvain started, gasping as the thing went through him, but he giggled despite himself at the sensations it brought with it. He stared at it in a child's wonder as it spoke to him, and tried to touch it before it vanished.
He looked up at Malachy in interest, grinning slightly. Maybe he was wrong. Maybe this guy was just what he said...
Expecto Patronum...The Patronus Charm...He'd have to look into that one more, that looked interesting...
"I could do that?" he asked, pointing to his shoulder even thought the thing wasn't there.

"I'm pretty sure you could. And I can bet you that used be the only first you to know the Spell if you learned it. It's actually not to hard. the hard parts are the attitude, and itt's difficulty reaches its peak if your trying to cast it at the creature that's repelled by it." He said explaining then he deicided that the boy should learn what it defends against and hoped the the thought of the creature didn't scare him too much.
"Speaking of the creature I think I should describe it to you so know when you need to use it as a defense." He paused for a moment the started his explaination. "The creatures are called Dementors. And they are with out a doubt the most vile creture you should never have to face. Dementors are about 7 feet tall and wheres a black flowing hood cloak of mist like quality. Now its what they do not how they look that's the bad part. As a Dementor breathes it soaks up all positive emotional energy from around it. Being near one will cause someone great despair, a feeling of never feeling happiness again. And oddly enough chocolate seems to be the best cure for the after effects of of being around one." He paused again to let the notions sink in before going on. "The Ministry of Magic has control over most of them and they are used as security in Azkaban prison, and on extremely rare occations are used as a means of capital punishment. You see a Dementor is more devious than to suck joy out of the room, it also has a sinister ability known as the Dementor's Kiss. If applied the victim of said kiss, looses their soul to the Dementor. Their identity and free will is completely ripped from their mind. this is a fate far worse than death. " He allowed that to settle a little. and wondered what was going through the boy's mind.
"A Dementor is only repelled by one defense, The Patronus charm. The entity brought out by the charm is a shield between you and and the Dementor, canceling out its Joy draining breath, and pushing it away like positive on positive magnet. That is what this charm can do. That is the power it offers." He finished with a bit of lusting grin as he talked about it.

God. Just hearing about the thing described like that drained the happiness out of Silvain. He was a slightly alarming shade of white by the time Malachy finished, eyes wide and fearful.
"Uhhm...Maybe...I...shouldn't...be worrying...about those...like...kinds of things," he said quietly. "What...When are we supposed to be learning...about them?" he asked, kinda hoping that the school didn't teach it and he wouldn't ever have to.

"I'm not sure exactly when it's taught. I learned it on my own. not even sure if the school teaches it, but it's cheaper and more personal than an owl. And It's not likely you'll have to use it to defend yourself. If any free Dementors are seen the ministry jumps on capturing and keeping it under control. I think the last reports of them being out of their confinement to Azkaban was about 60 years ago. You shouldn't have to worry about Meeting those creatures." Malachy shivered a little at t imagining meeting one. "I only know what I know from what I've read about them no personal encounters and I plan on it staying that way. But the Patronus as a great spell. Look at it this way, wouldn't it be better to have learned it and never have to use it as a defense; than to need it's protection and not know how use it?" he asked knowing the answer. To him it would be better to at least know it. He had no clue why he was pushing the subject.

"I guess..." Silvain said, looking down. He nodded to himself, then looked up again.
"M'kay, but...not right this second, 'K? Maybe...maybe later, I have some stuff for Astronomy class to look up."
Malachy was right. He ought to at least learn the spell, even though he didn't like the idea of learning from another student. But that was just him.
"Maybe outside?" he asked. It was cold out, but he figured he'd be less nervous of breaking something than if he was inside in an empty classroom.

"Sure," Silvain said, nodding. "Maybe...Sunday?" he offered. He figured Sunday was a good day. Everyone out of classes, probably a lot of people outside to look on and make sure nothing went wrong...Maybe even a teacher or two out there to help or give guidance...

"Sunday sounds good, Right after lunch? Maybe I could get Ashlie Rainier. the Gryffindor prefect to help out I don't think she would object but it's worth a try. Having second opinions and alternate means of advise can be quite helpful." He suggested. Had he not already befriended the prefect it would be an empty hope but Malachy planned on At leas sending an owl, or in fact a Patronus asking if she'd help.
Post by Silvain Aurel (is leaving) on Dec 29, 2007 22:42:13 GMT -5
Silvain thought about that. A Gryffindor would make him feel much better, even if he'd never met the one Malachy mentioned before.
"Sure, okay," he said. A prefect had to be an asset, right?
"Thank you," he said. "...Why do you want to teach me a Patronus, anyway?" he asked.

Now for what Malachy hadn't really thought about. "Not exactly sure. Partly because I have nothing better to do. and partly because I just feel like And I want to be able that I thought a Ravenclaw something they didn't already know." He said with a shrug. "Well I think it's safe to at least send her the message. Expecto Patronum." He remembered when he got the snake ring on his finger as he said the incantation of the Cobra went on its way passing strait through the stone wall.

"...Wouldn't other people...notice that kinda thing?" Silvain asked, watching the snake twist away. "I mean...it's kinda hard to miss this white floating snake..."

Malachy shrugged, "Probably but it can move threw the walls and stay unseen. And it's one of the few spell that's allowed to be used in the hall. so i won't get in any trouble anyway." He explained.

"Well yeah, but what about real life?" Silvain asked. "I mean, if you're trying to send a message to someone...other people are gonna know you're trying to, won't they?"
