What did he think would happen when a ball hit a glove at high speed like that?

They hit the wall and Mo sort of clung to the bricks for dear life. "I'm okay," he muttered to poor Alice, who hadn't deserved to get thrown against a wall just because Mo couldn't catch. He felt awful about that. "Are you hurt?" He tilted his head down to look at her and watched the meteor practically float into her glove.

OKAY NOT FAIR. Mo gave the remaining meteors a hard look, like he blamed them all personally for not flying into his glove immediately. He sort of DID blame them, actually. "C'mon, Your Highness. I gotta get me some meteors," Mo reached for Alice's hand until he was hanging upside down. This was... different. Not bad, but not... really very good either.
Alice didn't like the wall, no. She didn't know if it was worse than helplessly drifting around like a stray balloon, though, so she didn't complain. "I'm fine. It could have been worse, yeah?" Much worse. She wasn't all that hurt, really. She was tough, didn't all Beaters have to be? The lioness would let Selina could take all the credit for her ruggedness. YES. Ruggedness. She had loads of it.

She almost laughed, though, at the look that he was giving the meteors. Alice tilted her head upward to stare at him quizzically. "Why're you glaring at the stars, Cactus? If you want one, you can have mine." Because she could catch three, of course. She was just that awesome, hadn't he noticed yet? The fourth year's faze froze a little bit as he reached for her hand, though. Vivi wouldn't be skeptical of that, would she? .. She could probably leave that out of the usual owls. Yes. She could do that.

So Alice took his hand, flailing and kicking over to another patch of meteors that seemed to be moving slowly enough for them to catch. "These. These look okay." OH. And that blue one.. yes, that one was hers. Mo could take his pick out of the rest. She kept a hold of his fingers while extending her arm toward the meteor, so that she wouldn't start spinning away and out of control again.

It wasn't helping, though, that for every inch closer she moved, the star moved an inch back. Stretch.
