With the balloon in one hand and wand in the other, Zander said the spell under his breath a couple more times. Okay. He could do this. Just had to concentrate. "Helic umtus," the Gryffindor flicked his wand and waited... Nothing? Hmph. Merlin. Sweet Merlin. Why.
He didn't want to have to ask for help, especially because it looked like some others were already figuring it out! He'd look like a total loser if he couldn't get it now! Okay, okay once more. "Helic umtus!" Zander waited again, this time anticipating the incantation to do it's thing, the magic thing, but again. Nothing. Welp. This was bad. Okay, okay one more time, "Helic umtus!!!" And before he knew it the balloon was filling with air! It was working!! FINALLY!
Now how would he know when to stop--
POP!!
O________O
...oops.... Heh. Okay, well now that he actually understood how to do it, it wouldn't be all that hard right? Got it right once, he could do it again. This time, with more confidence he tried once more, grabbing another balloon that he found on the table. "Helic umtus!" he said firmly watching as the balloon filled um with helium. YAY!! This time before the balloon could fill up too much, "Finite!" Perfect. It was beautiful. Well... it was a balloon. And it wasn't a popped one? Now for the hard part. Tying it.
It took a couple of minutes and a few tries. The balloon had significantly decreased in size by the time he had tied it off, but it was still rather large. So that was the good news.
