"Miss Branxton! I do not know vot the rules were at your previous school, but we do not throw belongings at one another here. Two points vill be taken from Ravenclaw." Merlin, her normal accent was slipping. They could yell at each-other all they wanted, but Medea was putting her foot down when belongings were being thrown.
Now...where were they again? Perhaps the activity was working a bit, because Vivi's first impulse was to argue with the professor. That boy there with the big mouth had deserved her shoe to be shoved all the way down his throat and not merely chucked GENTLY at his head. He was rude and stuff.
But when she took a deep breath... and another... and another, Vivi had a second impulse. "Sorry, Professor. Sorry... Gryffindor boy. I apologize for disrupting class and smooshing Louisa and throwing my shoe." Deeeeeep breathing. No good getting angry and upset just because she'd lost points in the one class she needed to do well in.

O__O
There were both overreacting if you asked her. Then she heard someone mention needing protection against women? Really? Vivi didn't seem to agree with that which showed quite obviously when she lashed out and of course Lex agreed fully--until she said that last part. "Heeyy! Gryffindors are not bad! You should be more gender specific like he was!" If she was going to try getting back at him she might as well had played the same card. She couldn't see the little Gryffindor, but Vivi heard the outraged voice from somewhere in the dark behind her, and her shoulders hunched up. It happened that the first people to befriend her at Hogwarts had all been Gryffindors, and she'd sort of roundly insulted the entire house. So that was yet another reason to be mortified.

Louisa couldn't tell, and it wasn't her fault that she was jumpy! Romanos HAD to set such a perfect creepy atmosphere for them, it was all the professor's fault. Right. That felt much better. Now the Ravenclaw just fumbled on her spot and tried to re-assume her lotus position. Merlin she was still a little shaken, see her paranoia was taking the best of her. She should see professor Lafay about that again.
When someone answered with "women",the Ravenclaw frowned and opened her mouth to say something but Vivi beat her and threw something at him. That... was a very impulsive act. Louisa grinned in the dark and was about to voice out her support but Romanos' voice shut her up. She stayed still until the two points were taken from them.
Should she say something? Instead of... just sitting in awkward silence? Louisa made sure the students started answering again when she cleared her throat and whispered, "Good cause, though." Pause. "Two points are nothing." Ya know, in case Vivi felt bad for it, which was unlikely, Louisa thought but getting addressed in the middle of your first DADA class was ...uncomfortable? Vivi nodded, appreciating the show of confidence, even if the girl had just stabbed her viciously with her wand just prior to blinding her. Vivi was the one, after all, who had started things and thrown her shoe, and she couldn't exactly be testy with Louisa over any of that.
Plus she was just as injured and hadn't gotten mad. Girl had some class. "S'okay. Just wish it hadn't happened in front of Romanos." Vivi was distinctly unlotusy, with slumped shoulders and her elbows on her knees.
No. No moping! She straightened out her form and closed her eyes, her arms going flat against her legs. Ohm v2.0.

He yelped, flailing his legs until they untangled, and sat up in a huff. "A shoe?!" He glared at the blonde girl that was yelling about Gryffindors. She had NO right to talk. "See?! Crazy women!" She only proved his point.
And she only got two points deducted. How unfair. Jake could have lost an eye! That was worth more than two points.
Grumbling to himself, he re-lotused, rubbing the side of his head. He'd keep an eye out for Crazy Blonde Ravenclaw Girl. Oh yes, he would. Her ohming was disrupted by the Gryffindor boy, who really just wanted her other shoe to be shoved down his throat. Obviously. He was begging for it. But no. NO. Deep breathing. Ohm and all that.
"Can I have my shoe back, please?" Since she'd already said sorry and all.
