She gave it a small smile then plopped down.
How many rocks would she get away with hurling at it today before it got fed up? Normally it didn't mind the first ten or so but what if it was in a bad mood today? She didn't know.
Lex took a rock and eyed it contemplatively for a moment before giving it a good throw. As expected it was swatted away...but not at her...?
Weird....
Okay...Good...no being squished yet. Oakey moved a step closer again to begin his thanks to the Tree again. Maybe the Whomping Willow really did tolerate him now.
"Wight if The Whomping Willow, accept my thanks.
Henceforth may your might be in this branch!..." SMACK! "Ow!" Holy Hippogriffs that stung like hell! Oakey rubbed his shoulder vigorasly to try and soothe the pain that was now stinging even more.
"ow ow ow ow." What did? Did the Willow just pelt him with one of it's seeds or something? Oakey looked down at the ground and found the culprit. A rock?...What? How did the Willow get a hold of a Rock? Oakey looked around him and spotted something even more suspicious. Alexa...yeah that would explain it.
First he needed to finish his thanks. He held his shoulder and rubed the pain a little more before starting over.
"Wight if The Whomping Willow, accept my thanks.
Henceforth may your might be in this branch!
Magically bound to the bright runes, Sowilo, Kenaz and Raidho
Working my will with speed and wisdom."
Once he finished he gave the Whomping Willow a smile, twirled it's bark in his hand and moved over to Alexa, sitting down beside her.
"You throwing rocks at my good friend?" Oakey asked giving her a sour lemon glare.
