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.
Lex grabbed another stone and got sent to hurl it when she heard...oh dear...She leaned to the side to get a better look around the tree and spotted an injured Oakey.
Oops...
Her first thought was to get up slowly then make a run for it but then...after hurting a Puffer one did not simply
run. THAT was bad karma and she'd done well surviving this term so far...no need to acquire some now. NOPE. Instead she sat where she was and watched to make sure he didn't suddenly topple over from a concussion. So far so good.
But then he was walking over.
"I am, we're playing a game and right now I'm winning." She grinned up at him. Yup, she totally was.
"You wanna jooooin???" And more grinning--oh! But see, now she also hopped up and poked his face. It was a habit that wasn't gonna die.
