To the shock of literally everyone, himself included, Max made it to the third round. By this point the Gryffindor thought he and Mister Sterling the Auror had a bit of rapport (reader, they said not one word to another). The boy nodded solemnly to the man before turning his attention to the girl. She was taller than him and also vaguely deadly-looking, like most older girls are (except for Sloane, who was an angel from heaven). Not that the girl in front of him made him nervous or anything. Nope. During their break Tao gave him a pep talk, and he practiced this spell once with... mixed results.
He bowed to her, then moved swiftly into position. "Petrificus Totalus!" he attempted.
