That was probably THE dumbest thing Alice had ever heard. Ever. From a Ravenclaw, too, for shame.

It was likely the fact that her hand was still aching like nuts from those buzzers that made her so sour toward the whole prospect of a safety lesson, which she clearly didn't need. Clearly. Hand up. Not to answer the Headmistress' question, just to pick at Nigel, because his answer was stupid. Even if he'd used air quotes. "Being brave doesn't mean you have to constantly risk your hide and kill something and toss all safety rules out the window."

Just saying, because people implied that about Gryffindors all the time. It wasn't like Alice's favorite way to pass time was MURDERING things.

"Being brave is being courageous, which really isn't impulsive or dumb or anything that you all are making it out to be. Just a state of mind that lets you face danger with confidence." That's what it WAS, they all needed dictionaries. "And if you're in a dangerous situation, you're probably going to need that. So being brave is a rule FOR safety. It should be in that acronym somewhere. Cowards don't do well in sticky situations."

Her hand still hurt. It had stopped smoking, though, joy.


Nigel listened to Alice tear into his air quotes brave response. She really did not like brave and recklessness in the same sentence. Nigel just shrugged and guessed she did not know or bother to look it up what air quotes where.

"True and that is called Recklessness". Like West said. "Which is what I was talking about with the air quotes." Some people can't understand sarcasm. Shame.

He did agree with her definition for brave and what if you are a dangerous situation and nodded along to that.
