If he was in a crash with this strategy, it would be someone else running into him, not the other way around. Number two, it was much less tiring. Number three, it took a lot of chance and luck out of the equation. Yeah, I'll stick with this for awhile.

Carefully, he slipped the cauldron back centimeter by centimeter until it felt like it was about to slide off the back of his head. Then he shifted it forward a little to make sure it would stay on.
