At least that time, there wasn't the concern about if another person would be able to keep them levitated, whether or not the squishy carpet and all the cushions were there for their safety now. She knew she was fairly confident in her ability to perform the charm, but that didn't mean everyone else was. She hadn't gotten a partner yet, after all, and she'd switched between watching the younger students with the balls and her fellow upperclassmen partnering up, almost as if she expected to see someone hit the ground any time now.

Her attention wavered as she heard a voice speak up from right next to her, blinking as she hadn't even seen him approach her in her earlier preoccupation. "Gideon, right?," she asked, giving him a smile as she remembered him from a lesson taught one of the previous two terms. She couldn't even remember which one, but at least they'd survived it. Not to mention he was apparently a prefect now, which made her feel a bit better about letting him try and levitate her. As if being prefect meant he'd be more accomplished at the basic charm than a normal student. "Did you want to go first, or should I?," she continued, still trying to seem more confident than she was. At least when it came to the activity, not the spell in general.

She had seemed distracted at first but Gideon watched as she finally reacted to his acceptance of their need for partners. His relief shown when it was a positive reaction seeing as he really didn't want to go back to looking for another option. Not that he had had to look all that long this time, especially in comparision to the struggle in herbology but still. "Aye thats me," he confirmed, this time he was confused seeing as he hadn't reconized her. "Do we kn...wait...Stella?" he inquired hesitantly, not sure about possibly making a mistake when she clearly remembered him.

"Whichever ye prefer," he answered leaving it up to her whether she was the levitator or the levitee for the first time around. Gideon was up for both for the time being and seeing as they probably both were gonna have to go anyway, it really wasn't gonna matter much. "Ye can work on me first if ye want."
