"Aye...I'm here," he answered once more, raising his voice a little so Vickers might hear him this time.
Then a thought crossed his mind and he couldn't help frowning. Maybe he had been wrong and the Ravenclaw was a year younger then him and so lost his hearing instead of his sight. That would make things harder since they couldn't really communicate with each other all to well then. "Um...okay," Gideon answered, using the last two replies to turn in the approximate direction Vickers appeared to be in. He would need to be cautious to catch the spell as best he could.
And when he heard the spell cast, Gideon raised his wand in defense about to cast his own spell only to freeze once more as his eyes were greeted with light once more. The blinding spell obviously having been taken off, the answer as to why soon was heard as the professor told them all to cease everything. He lowered his wand back to his side with a sigh of relief, briefly wondering where Vickers' spell was since it hadn't hit him until he spotted his partner facing a dueling dummy.
Whew...at least somewhere it was harmless...and hopefully they were done.

Jumping a little as the Slytherin girl suddenly spun back around to face her, wand pointed at her and all, she was a bit taken aback to really...do anything but...DUCK AND COVER!
Flailing to the side, she reached over and pulled down the blindfold from Sierra's face. "Wrong...person...Miss Greingoth. Didn't you hear?" Didn't she???
Glancing past Sierra towards Olivia, she stood up a little more straight after that small-ish attack was over. Hmmm? Halfway to opening her mouth, she snapped it shut. Right. She wouldn't be able to hear her. Yet as someone else was calling out for her, she held up her finger to indicate she'd get back to that topic.
Glancing towards Laura and her partner, her eyes widened a bit at the sight of the spots. Uh huuuuh. Yet before she could lift the spell from the Hufflepuff girl so she could hear her speak, Medea heard yet another person calling for help.
This one sounded a bit more urgent though. "HERE!" she said, spinning around and holding up her hand. Wait. Who was the one calling for her? A blindfolded student or one who wouldn't be able to hear her?
Finally though, she did spot someone who looked just a bit more upset than she'd expected. Oh Merlin. Yet on her way over to the girl, she'd passed two students practically on the floor, one who had a squeak in their voice, and a buuuunch of people who were having a hard time pronouncing the spells. Okaaay...
With a glance at her watch as she stopped next to the girl, Medea ran sighed and tapped the girl on both sides of her head near her ears to counter the deafening spell. "Are you alright, Miss Castell?" She wasn't hurt was she?
Looking out across the chaotic room, she was actually rather pleased with the results. A few mishaps, but all in all, they all did get a taste of what it was like not having one of their senses. Which was the point of it all. They practically failed altogether, but still, Medea was pleased. Especially in the conditions they were in. "ALRIGHT! Every...one..." Wait. Half the class couldn't hear a word she was saying.
Shaking her head to herself, she hopped up onto the dueling platform and made a sweep of her wand over the class. The blindfolds on the older students were vanished, and the spells effecting the younger students hearing was countered instantly. "Alright! Everyone. Stop! Hold your spells!" Stop stop stop.

Some freaked out, but that was okay. It was to be expected. "However, ve are very short on time, so I think ve'll come to a close here. If you have yet to take notes today, I'd suggest doing so now when everything is still fresh in your mind, whether it was on vot ve discussed earlier or just simply how it felt to duel vithout a sense, because you vill be having homework on this. I'll be posting it up on the noticeboard later today."
Yes, the dreaded homework. "Other than that, you are free to leave. Vell done, everyone." Hopping off the platform, she was JUST about to start cleaning up when she remembered. "OH! And Miss Hyde and Miss Hollingberry, if you two can stay behind please."
He felt the spell leave his wand. No sooner has he done so when he felt something hard bounce off at something in front of him and fall onto t he floor just as heavily. Merlin! Did he just knock Gideon out cold?
But the Gryffindor was prepared wasnt he? He heard him raise the shield spell.... or he
thought he heard him raise it....
"G-G-G-Gideon?!?? Are you alright?" the Ravenclaw blurted out in sheer panic. Just then he felt the blindfold fly out of his head, instinctively raised his arm against his face as brightness flooded his sight. Blinking a few times he oriented himself to seeing again-- then stared at the floor.
A dueling dummy planked before him.
Whut???
For a split second he thought he accidentally turned Gideon into the dummy when he realized he was now facing the wall. He was facing the wrong direction all this time? He turned quickly and saw the Gryffindor boy standing there quite alright. He breathed a sigh of relief
"You're ok. Awesome." Really it was awesome. He has never felt more relieved seeing a student alive and well after feeling incapacitated and from the looks of the dummy, totally dangerous with a wand.
Then the DADA Professor started winding down and mentioned homework. He collected his things quickly then turned awkwardly towards the Gryffindor
"Thanks for putting up with me. Sorry if I hurt you in any way... I didnt mean to." If only the boy knew Vickers could barely hear him.
He excused himself as he shuffled towards the door quietly, not giving the Professor her usual farewell greeting. He was embarrassed, and didnt feel like he could face the Professor after having done rather poorly in her class today.
