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.
"You're game bruised my shoulder pretty badly" Yup Oakey was still holding his shoulder. No need to complain about it any further though. Healer Tillstorm herself said Bruises were not worth crying or fusing over. Or she said it some other way...ah well, Oakey wasn't going to complain. Yup none of that.
"So if you're winning now, how would the Willow win?" Oakey almost regretted asking that question as he turned his bark in his free hand.
"Don't say getting Squished." He took his hand from his shoulder and grabbed his wand. He peeled off the top layer of bark of the Piece of Willow the broke the pieces of stripped bark into smaller pieces.
"You keep playing your game. Just as long as the Willow really isn't angry with this game of yours." He broke the pieces down further and further, then took his wand and started to silently shave the pieces with simple Diffindos. Once he was down, he reached into his bag and pulled out a satchel filled with a few sickles. He emptied the sickles into his bag then poured the shavings into the satchel.
