She was about to scream yell that he put that away because the rope was fine but it was too late and he was casting. She squeezed her eyes shut waiting to lose her leg....sniff that was her favourite leg too...but it didn't happen. She was fine.
Slowly she began smiling again. Very slowly. She was still getting over the initial shock but now she supposed she could add him to her list of safe casters. It consisted only of people she was confident wouldn't get her blown up trying to perform a simple spell. There weren't many people on that list.
Now she was distracted by the talk of leaving her clothes for a few days. No problem. She was in no rush to try that had washing thing again. No thanks. SO, hopping!! "OKIE DOKES!!!" She got to lead the count. It was better than following it. Nodnodnod. "On three. One...two...three!" Hop. Hop. Hop. You can do it Oakey!!!
Alexa's overly excited attitude was rubbing off on him. He had not been smiling and laughing like this since they lost to the Gryffindor's in the first match of the year. Yeah Hufflepuffs laughed and had fun even after losing. It was their thing. Could he duplicate
THIS Alexa, shrink her can keep her in his pocket to brighten his day when he needs to?
"Yup OAKEY DOKES"
And hopping he went with Alexa..
SPLOOSH! Oakey almost lost his balance on the first jump but had to regain it quickly as Alexa was still hopping along
SPLASH the Goo went up and behind them right in the direction of both
NIGEL and
BLUE. That totally wasn't intentional at all. In the amusment of sending Goo back towards the Claws Oakey missed Alexa's third jump and slipped face first into the goo, taking the Gryffindor with him.
