"Are you?" When Peter mentioned he was an Animagus; however, the way Albus asked sounded like he wasn't surprised at all. "That is quite the feat. Very few wizards now how to transform their own bodies into that of an animal. Very impressive. Which means your skills lie within the transfigurations part of magic." Albus beamed a bit, it was his area of expertise he loved. When hew as in school, the professors were amazed at what he did with his wand, especially when it came to transfiguration. "It is confidence. Something happened to you that is causing doubt which can eventually lead to the simple spells not working. I think we should build on your confidence and go from there. And Peter, this is not something to be ashamed off. Many wizards go through this. You are not the first nor shall you be the last."
Albus stopped walking once they were outside of the village. It was dark as Albus pulled out his own wand and waved it effortlessly as candles appeared in a circle around them, giving them light. "I would like to see you perform the spells and charms that you do know on this scarecrow." Tapping on a rock nearby and transfigured it into a harmless scarecrow.
