"I... never really considered that as an option before." Kellen blinked. He'd always thought of dueling as intricately connected with Defense Against the Dark Arts, and possessing of its own set of spells. Sure, that seemed like a pretty naive way of thinking now, but at the time it made sense and he hadn't had a reason to think otherwise.

On a slightly different note, he observed, "So obviously you not only survived your NEWTs, but they treated you well. I saw one of the other seventh years dragging his feet all the way down here earlier."

That would be awkward considering her family were dark wizards and all. "No way. See the reason I'm good at it is because I'm totally creative and stuff. Transfiguration and Charms are my best subjects, and I always worked to apply those sorts of spells in a duelling situation and because its unexpected, thats usually why I win." She explained. "I used to make lists of charms and try to figure out how they could be used in a duel. Like Glisseo is my favourite, you can use that to make your opponent slip over or even lose their grip on their wand. Or you can turn their shoes into stone, make their toenails grow - thats really effective. Painful but effective. You can transfigure their clothes, either to make them heavy or make them restrictive... theres a lot of possibilities and you don't have to bother with the negative intent thing required of jinxes and curses and you get the element of surprise working for you too. Its not about the duelling so much as about the magic." "I... never really considered that as an option before." Kellen blinked.
