SPOILER!!: Aldous

REALLY GOOD?! Zeke beamed, the kid was going to do fine, for a bookworm he seemed physically able enough for the task. Besides, it WAS about the charms work, really... so it couldn't be TOO challenging. The class activity set them up for this perhaps too well. "Cool," he nodded, "and don't worry about it, you'll be fine, if not at least you'll get some practice in." Heh. It would be a win win for the kid.

As Aldous came to a stop, Zeke paused behind him, peering down at his companion and giving him a pat on the shoulder, "Looks good to me," he confirmed, accepting the ball that was offered to him. "You ready?" he asked as he started distancing himself from the first year, taking a few measured paces backward. Banishing the ball would be easy enough, but slowing it before catching it... weeelll... Alders better have good timing.

Zeke slipped his wand out his holster, rolling it around his palm a little as he held the ball out in front of him.

Ready?

Set?

"Depulso!" he recited as he completed a clean sweeping motion with his wand, sending the ball toward his partner swiftly.

And this one was included. His only concern was to find someone older to partner up with because asking one of his firstie friends was going to be a bit dull since they both were going to be practicing only one charm and have to manually throw it. It'd work but so dull. So when he met Zeke the only obstacle was removed and life was good again. And whenever the Ravenclaw ended up with an older kid he seemed to have this desire to prove that it was NOT a mistake to partner up with him. So when he was asked, most likely as a way to start the conversation from the Gryffindor's side, Aldous immediately answered, "It's really good!" Yeah, he needed to calm down... and be completely honest. Zeke was gonna find out eventually. "But my throws aren't strong," He admitted glancing down at the ball in his hands, that they just collected. Honesty was key. Did he still want to be his partner after he found out the truth? Did he open up TOO MUCH? But hey, strong arms weren't needed, right? That was what the wand was for. Plus his task was to slow down the thrown ball. Yup, yup. All was good! He was FINE. "I think here is good?" He said coming to a stop and offering the ball to the older kid. There was good amount of space and not too many people to ~~injure~~ hit with the ball. Or they could MOVE if he didn't like the place! REALLY GOOD?! Zeke beamed, the kid was going to do fine, for a bookworm he seemed physically able enough for the task.
