Then there were further exchanges of words between his colleagues and talk about brooms (quidditch at a time like this?! The broom closet was just down the hall there somewhere...he supposed...) and chocolate wands and...

SAY WHAT, MR. ZEKE?!
Head snapping towards the door, the man thrust his finger in its general direction as little by little people came running inside from the horde making all sorts of noise out in the entrance hall.
"NOW!" he barked. "Direct some of your bluebell flames with your wand at the door."
Cue the distractions! That may not actually be distractions. But they were all just going to pretend that they were for their own peace of mind and for a sense of contribution.
Live long and prosper, rescue team. A thought he had as he watched that group finally depart from the Great Hall.
It seemed that he had done his duty in informing the... troops... and Flamsteed got all COMANDING and things... and... what exactly were they doing with bluebell flames? Would that work? Couldn't they just innuendo the spiders?... like, burn them for realz?
Instead he locked eyes on someone else...

But everyone ELSE was being rude as....rude as something. She couldn't find a suitable thing to compare it to.
They were being REALLY REALLY RUDE though.
Hmpf.
Still looking for something to set on fire, Maggie was going through her robes' pockets when....Zeke came back in being all dramatic. Hey. That was HER job. Being dramatic that is. But somehow this was too real to even complain about it. In the end Maggie just stared at him for a moment. Right. They were coming.
They were going to break through their defenses.
And then they would be trapped in here.
WHY HAD SHE NOT GONE WITH THE OTHER GROUP???
Why had Healer Murdoch convinced her to stay with someone like Professor Flamsteed????
THEY WERE ALL GOING TO DIE!!!
Eventually she found a (unused!) tissue in her back pocket. That would do. Maggie cast the bluebell flames charm on it before levitating it towards the door. Not that she truly believed that would stop the acromantulas. What if they just made the entrance hall collapse on top of them when they were all inside? That seemed like a more effective was of getting rid of them.
She was staring at him... WHY? He didn't much mind, and he found his feet moving in her direction. He watched her curiously as she cast a bluebell flame and levitated it toward the door from which he had come.
...
"And what exactly is the plan?" he asked, casually poking her in the arm. It was his turn to do that staring thing, his eyes locked on her as he halted by her side.
