She was still pretty tiny, but she didn’t think the grey Lady could hold her up. Or stand on her shoulders for that matter. That meant they had to at least get along for however long was left in the lesson. However long they had to accomplish the activity, and even she was curious if there was anything good in those candy bags. She wouldn’t find out until they’d gotten them, though, and that meant starting.

There might have been a slight look at the ridiculous idea that she could hold him on her shoulders. Even if she was inclined to do the work, he still had several inches on her and most likely weight as well. “I’ll climb on your shoulders,” she replied. There. That was decided. No crazy other options, or at least that’s what she thought until he’d spoken again. “Do I?” Did it look like she knew a ton of former History professors and headmasters?

She tried to think if she knew of any from when her sister was at Hogwarts. Of course, they’d had a few headmasters, or headmistresses, since even she’d been there. But that didn’t necessarily mean she’d memorized their names. “Do you think the current ones count?,” she asked, climbing onto his shoulders carefully. Especially since she thought they were supposed to stand. All the stuff about standing tall as giants and that. She just hoped he didn’t get any funny ideas while she was up there.
'Do I?'

Frankie gave Brooklyn a look. Uhh ... DUH! Did she honestly expect him to know these people? He was an expert on giants and other things that actually mattered, not former professors or headmasters. So it was only expected that she pick up the slack today. Especially since he was the one doing all of the hard physical labour.

"Then you do the former history professors. I only know of Glendower." Because having to put on costumes and 'act' out history during her lessons was still ever-present in his mind, even though he remembered very little about the subject-matter. Plus he didn't spend his free time thinking about old professors. But he did have confidence that he could easily fake headmaster names.

He simply shook his head when the redhead asked if current professors counted as she climbed into his shoulders. The blond was sure they didn't, since he knew that former meant no longer there or dead. So there would be no shouting the ghost lady professor or Bostros' names. For once Frankie liked where Brooklyn was going with that; it would have been two less people to try to name.

Faces were made when the Slytherin got up on his shoulders. The Gryffindor did his best to not grunt or make rude comments about how a certain someone must've ate one too many pumpkin pasties. He was a little too focused on getting candy for that. "Doing alright up there, Brookie?" he asked as he made the first step toward a candy basket. And was she was ready to rattle off some history professors? He was more than prepared to drop her if she didn't. Just saying.
