He glanced at the young Gryffindor when she offered to levitate him up the stairs "You can do that?" he asked awestruck. Well if she can pull a dugbog so easily she probably has pretty good wand skills. Wouldnt she? "Well ok.... what do you want me to do?"
Alice nodded.
"Yeah I can do that," Alice said pushing herself off the wall.
"My guiding isn't great but it's alright, I'll keep you levitating near me so I can guide you some with my hands."
Alice pulled her wand out of its holster.
"Alright, just step away from the wall a little bit." Alice made sure no one was around that she could bump him into before saying,
"Wingardium Leviosa!" Alice got Salander off the ground a little ways.
"Fixate," Alice said once she got him at a good height.
"Alright, I think it might be easier if you try and lay flat?" Hoping Salander didn't mind she grabbed him by the hips, which was the only place she could reach and pushed him down gently so he looked like he was lying on a bed.
"Alright, here we go!" Alice said brightly.
"Locomoter Salander!"
Alice had to admit she was hating these stairs. She carefully tried to guide Salander but she misjudged a corner and sent Salander's shoulder smacking into it.
"Sorry Salander!!" Alice said apologetically. Alice didn't think she was moving him fast enough to leave a mark, but if she did they were still on their way to the hospital wing anyway, right?
Alice continued up the stairs, resuming to hit Salander against the wall, and nearly knocking herself back down the steps when she had to move him out of the way of a passerby. Given different circumstances this could have actually been pretty comical.
"How are you doing?" Alice asked, once she saw the third floor in her view.
