Here are our answers!
- Heather: Expelliarmus would be the best, like Tqwana says, it’s Harry’s go-to.
Tqwana: I have to be like Harry – Expelliarmus! Or Protego, but I’m not sure that’s a 2nd year spell.
- Everyone knows the bit of the person you’re turning into, so we don’t mind sharing that one. What else???
- Heather: Can I be Caitriona Balfe for a day? Making out with Sam Heughan, hanging out on the Outlander set, wearing beautiful costumes…
Tqwana: I think I’d like to be Michelle Obama for a day. She’s just so fit, gorgeous, statuesque. Doesn’t hurt that she’s married to POTUS. And those arms! It’s mostly for the arms…

1. Expecto Patronum! It’s always been my favorite spell! Especially because I like to think my patronus is a donkey! ???? Don’t ask me why ????
2. Oh I like this one!!!!
– Fluxweed
– Knotgrass
– Lacewing flies
– Leeches
– Horn of Bicorn
– Boomslang Skin
– and a piece of the person you want to turn into (for example: a hair)
3. Of all three questions, I find this one the most difficult one… But I think I would like to be the Duchess of Camebridge for one day. Just to know what it’s like to be a princess in the British Royal Household! Although I do prefer Prince Harry more than Prince William ????????

I was just thinking… Expecto Patronum is not a spell for second years ???? Will have to go with Expelliarmus then as well! ????
