It was a massive relief when the beautiful pale blue butterflies actually managed to flutter out from the flower and she hadn't somehow screwed up her own spell due to all the nerves; even if she didn't win the competition, she hoped that lovely display of feminine magic put her above her competition in the eyes of the suitors that may have been watching. Speaking of the feminine, she had to literally choke down her hysterical laughter at not only Miss Flitwick failing so miserably at the last round, but the picture perfect Miss Thompsett and the elder Miss Adebayo. She supposed if nothing else, Minnie could say she beat them. Of course, she couldn't rest yet, as there was still the younger Miss Adebayo, along with some of the older debutantes to compete against. She supposed she wouldn't be angry if Mattie won, or even the young Miss Gambol, but now was not the time to throw in the towel already.
Illusions... they were much more complicated, and would take Jessamine's full concentration; and for that, she forced herself not to look out at the crowd of people watching them as if she spotted someone there for her, even if she knew they were there in the back of her mind, she feared it would throw her off. As she wanted to distance herself a bit from her competitors, whom she figured might try to make themselves blonde or green eyed, or some sort of beauty thing, she decided to go with a little more complex Disillusionment Charm that would blend her well into the background of the event, almost rendering her completely invisible, should she do well enough and concentrate hard.
