Obviously there wouldn't be a bomb in class, but it was amusing that someone would think so. She hoped nobody had gotten hurt from spell backfiring, though. She didn't have too much time to consider, either way, as she noticed the flick in her peripheral vision and t urned back to her partner to see that he'd taken his wand out finally.

She raised an eyebrow a little at his drawn out word, and shifted her grip on her own wand to be ready to use it when necessary. Especially because she wasn't stupid. He was obviously trying to take her off guard, being one of those typical Slytherins that irritated Matt so much. Stereotypes, but it was just as obvious that he thought she wasn't going to be prepared. Dropping her wand hand momentarily, she watched the red flash of light just miss, then brought her wand back up in the tight d movement Professor Romanos requested, aiming for his wand. "Expelliarmus!," she cast, smiling a little as she waited to see if her spell would hit.

Had he really missed? Mweh. He shrugged to himself. Sometimes he lost his concentration just like that. Maybe, if he hadn't been so occupied with cautioning her first that he was shooting, he could have hit her while she was watching the commotion. Oh well. At least no one could say he hit her from her back or anything, like she probably expected.

And now it was her tu--she hit him! Not physically, but she didn't even say she was going to cast the spell. The Brazilian tried to hold the wand, of course, but it was of no use and it was gone away in that room somewhere. Nevertheless, he nodded at her for her good work. He wasn't going to smile or anything, of course, because he wasn't pleased that she had lost his wand, but at least he acknowledged it. "I'd, er, better look for my wand." Yeah. There seemed like hundrends of people were in the room suddenly. And he hadn't even watched where it went.

...with all these wands flying around, it was impossible to find his. He had to run from getting hit, of course, or be prepared for people falling over. Then there was the threat of getting hit by a spell of those little brats who obviously thought magic was casting fires. The professor announced it was time to practise Protego, and his wand was still lost. Maybe he should just take that Stella girl's wand, since SHE lost it. Stupid Ravenclaws for being good at magic.

After a few more minutes' search, he finally found it somewhere near the windows. He sighed in relief that it was still one piece and made his way towards Stella, just in time for that... blindfolded game or something of that sort. Such fun.

"So, yeah, we couldn't really practise Protego." He paused, looking around thoughtfully. "But I guess you're good at it too," at least, HE certainly was, "so are we being blindfolded now?" He'd rather pass, thank you. He wasn't going to be bloody blind in a duel, at most, he would just lose his wand and be killed.
