There seemed to be a recurring theme of friend vs friend in this first round of duels and, if he was completely honest with himself, he actually found it interesting. Not that he wanted the students to feel conflicted but it was much harder to face your friend than it was to face someone you hardly knew. And if history said anything, friendship duels were meant to help.

Hoping that this duel would follow that path, Hirsch watched the duel commence. It wasn't long before there was laughter filling up the arena, only to be punctuated by sneezing and the shouting of spells. Again, they were harmless spells to use but if he was glad about anything, it was that they were already getting to grips with their defensive magic. Contego might not be as strong as Protego but it was a stepping stone to good defensive skills.

Did it excite him? It did.

Unfortunately, it wasn't long after the second Contego rang in the air that the duel had to come to a close. The shield appeared between the two duellers, making the light from the Babbling Curse hit the shield and ricochet off. Oops?

"A short but sweet duel," he said, appearing from his spot in the corner. He flicked his wand at both of them, eliminating the effects of any spells that might be lingering in the air. "I have to say, I'm very proud of the use of the Contego spell. Well done to both of you!" Smile. "Since there can only be one winner, congratulations to you, Mr Ashburry-Hawthorne, for taking the lead in this duel. And well done on putting up a good fight, Miss Chosen."

With that, they were free to go.
