Wouldn't that have been an interesting ride?

She burst out laughing at Mo's announcement that his face may be his only source of living if Quidditch didn't happen. She could see it working for him but laughing was better than admitting, obviously. "Lucky for you I happen to have brilliant aim." Though with the way this carriage was jerking about, it was a wonder she hadn't hexed another carriage on accident.

She gave him a two fingered salute after he'd let her go then turned to see what else might be trying to get them killed. Just up ahead there was what looked like another pile of snow. "Reckon we could get him to jump?" She asked, indulging in the idea of how epic it would be for just a moment before lazily flicking her wand, no rush with it still a little ways off, "Bombarda!" Why couldn't all their classes deal with explosions?
"Lucky for us both, I'm a great driver." And really, Mo did have experience with a variety of vehicles, although none of them had a mind of their own like the Abraxan. And none nearly dislocated his shoulder when the explosion caused by Lex's wand sent it skittering on a path perpendicular to the one they wanted to be on.

UGH PAIN. "Reckon we better not. Can you try to blow those up out of his line of sight?" Mo let go of one of the reins to rub his shoulder and the carriage veered again, causing him to scrabble for the dropped rein. "You're a good partner." Surprisingly.
