Phoebe (name check??) did not even need magic to knock her over. The wind seemed more than capable of accomplishing that feat.


"Yes," he agreed. "I think that is probably safest." Yes, there was condescension in his tone. But he had been shackled to a second year for duel practice. He was allowed to be slightly irritated by his luck. It was not like Miss Growl was going to do be able to do anything about it.
He was just the slightest bit mean, which meant that Phoebe adored him immediately. She raised her wand, but since the Headmaster wanted them to focus and since she wanted to be good at this dueling business, Phoebe was naturally completely distracted. That was the way it worked.

"I pulled Slytherin's beard." She lowered her wand. "It's really stuck on good." But focus, James. "Sorry. Expelliarmus." Weak sauce, but maybe she could take a page out of the Headmaster's book and overwhelm him with mediocre spells, but lots of them. "Expelliarmus. Expelliarmus. Expelliarmus."
