"Not die," he echoed her words. That was a decent plan. "Seems to be working for now," he decided with a shrug, never mind that he'd managed to put her off of her bluebell flame casting. Sorry not sorry.

But this was serious. All sorts of serious. There were giant killer venomous spiders on their doorstep. The type that liked the taste of human flesh. The only way the situation could be worse is if there were lethifolds loose in the castle. He still hadn't cast a corporeal patronus, so he would surely die.

It was while he was lost in thoughts that he noticed a figure a short way away from them. Hady. He raised an open palm to wave, but it hung stationary in the air until it dropped back to his side. Maggie's words turning his attention back to her.

Uhhh...

She thought they needed a better plan?

"I'll say, there has to be a better way of taking them out." Cause bluebell flames wouldn't stop him, let alone killer spiders. Not to mention he wasn't sure how long the charms would hold out on the entrance hall.

Hearing Professor Glendower go on about WEARING basilisk skin didn't do much to appease him either. That was... dumb. The charm already involved a basilisk. Not to mention spiders had like a million eyes and they would be able to see just fine that they were little humans with skin on them.

"We'd be better off transfiguring dragons to burn them to a crisp... or shrinking them... or enlarging one of us to squish them... or something." Yeah, yeah, those were EPIC ideas. Why hadn't anybody else thought of that? Hhhhmmm? Did HE have to save EVERYONE?

"If you want I can shrink you and hide you, you won't die, promise."

His gaze flickered back to Hady where she was casting a bluebell flame of her own. He could hide her too.

'For now', yes.

Maggie didn't quite trust the overall plan. Was there a secret passageway out of the Great Hall that she didn't know about? What if everyone outside died? Then they'd definitely be trapped in here with the weakest students ~~(and professors ahem)~~ so they would die too. Could she maybe climb through one of the windows? Maybe more fire......

Blue eyes back on Zeke she shook her head, giving him an odd look. "We're not trying to take them out." Not right now anyway. "We're trying to distract them. Or something." Something that probably wasn't very effective. Hopefully the Ministry people and the competent professors would return soon. Preferably WITH Noel. And the Headmistress.

Okay, the overall plan wasn't exactly to Maggie's liking but ZEKE's suggestions were even worse.

"They're trying to make sure they don't kill....the ones missing." For a brief second she was GENUINELY worried there. Saying it out loud was a lot worse than thinking it. Anyway though. This wasn't the point the right now. SURVIVAL was the point. Yes. "Maybe we could-"

...........

What?

Maggie blinked. Then blushed. What? "What if you die?" Good save. Ish. Maybe. Not really. She gave him a confused look before pointing her wand at the door again. Not that she was genuinely considering his offer (it was insane) but like......the sentiment was very much appreciated.
