And then he stopped the ball and Ella nodded, impressed. Good going, kiddo. That meant she was up so she raised her wand and grinned, eyes on the prize.

Concentrationnnnnnn face!

"Arresto Momentum!" Wave of ze wand and BAM! The ball had stopped. Dangerously close to her face, sure, but still stopped. That totally counted and she hadn't even flinched or anything. SKILLS.

WHATWERETHOSEEYES? Was he puppy dog eyeing her? OHMYGOSH! She couldn't stand the cute. SHE COULDN'T. She didn't know whether to squish the kid or punt him off the golden gate bridge because they were working and she couldn't concentrate with those eyes. "I'll throw it harder, no need for those." And she smiled a big smile before taking a few steps back as well.

"Ready?" And she threw the ball...harder.


Embrace the eyes, Tobias. BE ONE WITH THE EYES.

... diditwork?

Tobias focused on the scene in front of him properly and noted that Ella had STOPPED DA BALL and telling him to stop with the eyes which meant that they were TOTALLY WORKING. He grinned and readied his wand, but... how exactly did you stop your eyes doing something? Like... did they just continue being regular eyes or...?

Thinking about THE EYE DILEMMA distracted Toby a bit when he really NEEDED to be focused. The ball was flying right at him, faster than before, and the Hufflepuff had to THINKFASTTOPROTECTHISPRETTYFACE.

"Arresto Momentum!" Tobias called out as he waved his wand, and then... it STOPPED. Suspended in mid-air. "Sweet!"

That was all six, right? But Ella still had a couple more to go, so he could just keep practicing until she was done.

"Okay, your go. How many more do you need?" Tobias stepped forward again a little bit to close the gap between them somewhat and held the ball up to kinda show he was about to throw it and then he thREW IT. Not too hard though.

And theeeeeeeeen Toby raised his wand again, to kind of convey that he wanted to practice the spell again even though he was done. BIG GRIN.
