Regardless, all thoughts of history momentarily left his head as she let go of his hands and the prefect focused on staying very very still as she reached up for the candy bar. Grabbing onto one of her hands when she was done, he frowned when the other didn't come. "Stick the candy in your pocket and give me your other hand," he said, and wiggled that hand around as he very very very slowly started walking again.

Please don't fall please don't fall please don't fall. He was barely even listening to her rattle out the list of Professors but nodded when she'd apparently finished. "Great job," he said, and then realised it was his go. Reminding her about the hand she needed to give him with a little finger wiggle, Benzi thought back friday nights at the Rider household. And then tried to recall who Janelle had just said so that he wouldn't be repeating names.

"Right, History of Magic professors... There's Professor Helena obviously and Professor Dursley, who taught here when I was a first year..," he started, then went silent for a good thirty seconds as he focused on not running into another couple of students who were getting rather close to them. "Uh, I'm basically trying to remember who my mother talked about and go from there... So there was Professor Lainey? And Professor Truebridge who's Truebridge's husband, and there was a Professor Svensson. That's five right?" was that it? Could she grab the candy bar and get off now because his heart rate was up and he was nervous. If something startled him now Janelle would be toast.

He eyed the room carefully. No one better startle him now.


Janelle laughed when Benzi said that his family talked about history for fun. Then she tried to stop herself because laughing was not good for the balance. When her partner reached for her other hand, she followed his instructions. Putting the candy into her pocket, she grabbed his fingers and held on. They were moving again. "You're doing all the work. I'm just along for the ride." Thank goodness she had a big strong partner because otherwise, this could have been a really scary activity.

As before, Benzi named the professors like he practiced it at the dinner table........which he did. Now all they needed to do was get the last candy bag and they were almost home. Once they reached the second candy basket and Benzi had finished naming, Janelle let go of his hands again. Standing up straight, she reached for the bag. It was easier this time, thank Merlin. I've got the second one. You can go now." First, Janelle scrunched down and grabbed Benzi's hands again. Go go go! She thought in her head, but she didn't say it out loud. She didn't want to throw her partner off his game. Instead she settled for, "You've got this." "We're almost there."
