He closed his eyes instead, and imagined it moving his head up and down. That ought to be easier than getting up, yes? After a few seconds, he was eyeing the gqrgoyle again as he was pointing his wand at it and said "piertotum locomotor." Waiting... And it moved! It raised his head--just raising qnd not lowering, but it did.move and--he yelled a "WEDIDIT!" with the biggest grin on his face. They made it! Together!

Airey was quite literally holding his breath now while trying to think just what it was he would do if the boy wasn't able to do the spell this time. What was it that muggles were saying about the third time being the charm? Or, well, this wasn't a charm they were working with but a spell....so maybe it didn't apply to this situation?

Or was that not the point?

Thankfully he did not need to think about what to do because the gargoyle's head moved!

"No no, YOU did that," he replied with a wink. And now the he knew that he could do it things should work out for him. "If you are not feeling too tired you can try to make it lower its head now. Or have it make a bigger gesture." Or, you know, actually eat that ice cream that was sitting there on the desk still.
