He was facing off against a friend which made Leander a little more ambivalent about who would win. He did hope it would be himself, though. To start them off, Leander cast the jelly fingers jinx.

With a smile at Mr. Hobday Sisse took a stealing breathe. Just treat it like class or a Dueling club meeting, she coached herself. She had done these competitions before, every year except the last, but that year without seemed to make this time round that much harder.
So she started safe with a shield charm, casting it with a gently spoken, "Protego."

"An excellent shield charm, Miss Thompsett," Hamish commended, the Gryffindor making easy work of Hobday's own spell. "You may begin the second pass."

The spell without a hitch and Sisse found a smile on her lips at the praise. This was what it felt like.
With a bit more confidence she cast a tickling charm.
