Fine by him , the 5th year straightening up and trying to decide who it work with, his eyes flittering amongst the older students since he wasn't sure of working with those too much younger.
Looking around, he saw a Ravenclaw boy seemingly around his age practicing wand movements so he approached. "Care to be partners?"
Vickers was in mid-flick when he felt someone approach him. He looked up just as the boy asked to partner up, and had to gulp unconsciously. Does it have to be a Gryffindor? From the Gryffindors he's met so far, practically all of them had a tendency to fight to the death. And thats not necessarily their own.
"S-Sure..." he replied nodding his head, then shot a glance at the DADA Professor. How far will she be when they start dueling? Would she be near enough to hear him yell for help? Oh wait, since light travels faster than sound, would she be able to keep that spell from hitting him in case he freezes in sheer panic?
"I-I'm Vickers." he said introducing himself and offering to shake the boy's hand. Maybe if he realizes he's peaceful he'll go easy on him
"H-H-Have you done this before? The Disarming spell I mean?"
