Water wasn't all that bad and Alice had managed to remove most all of it.
Ahem. She thought it was HER turn to cast now, but noooooo, Alice had shot another aguamenti at her. Sweet Circe. "Cut that out."
Lex looked to her robes that were soaked again. She had to get them dry, but did it really matter? Her Captain would just drench her again until they'd gotten in enough practice. "You're finding something else to make a target of after this." She said, eyes on her for a moment.
Again there were the two clockwise circles. "Siccus Aerous!" Please work? Please? She'd said please. Not audibly but it still counted, yeah?
...
......Again she failed to remove ALL the water but her robe was getting dry, it was far less wet now. Progress.
"Cut what out?" Cue innocent face. She made her most convincing confused face at Lex, pulling all the dramatics until the younger girl started blabbering again.
What? Another target? No. Nooo.
"Why? I haven't ever had a target as brilliant as you." Really, she hadn't. More cooperative ones, most definitely, but the fun ones were the squirmy ones. Like Lex.
"Siccus Aerous." After tracing the next two tiny clockwise circles along the length of Lex's robes, Alice quickly shot another water-making spell at the fourth year, then ducked below the table to take cover.
Because surely she was going to get splashed back now.
