One of the reasons why he'd never qualify as an instructor in a school would be his impatience toward children. The former Slytherin did a low growl as he turned just in time to see a kid (Jackson), about Ethan's age, go on offense mode right away. He did hear that the arachnids found them, but their presence was not enough excuse for their group to strike. Somebody in school should teach those kids how to fight with finesse, because attacking right away isn’t always the solution. The blonde woman (Cassie) was on the right track...see if they can convince the arachnids to let them go, or at least go into a negotiation. But because of recklessness, they all found themselves in trouble.

Mordred kept quiet as he let the others do their thing. He was kind of busy over in one spot trying to get another human adult out of her web. The former Slytherin no longer paid attention to who it was, as he busied himself severing the web around the person. Hopefully, it was the Headmistress that he's setting free, because it could only mean that they can finally move out of the clearing, and back to the safety of the castle.

Another turn of his head, and his face came in contact with a wand tip. Soon, the disillusionment charm was off him, and in return he just stared back at the man who did it. No words were said to him...for now. Only, amid the chaos, Mordred etched the face of the man who lifted the charm in his memory. He couldn’t remember running into the man in the Ministry, so he was sure he’s a professor. He'd have to cross-reference him with Ethan's description of his new teachers: One was named Quigley, the other one was Dakest.

Once he was done with the web, he overheard the freed student that 'Lux' doesn't have her wand with her. "Not good." he thought. And who on earth was Lux? Of course he'd come across that name, thanks to Ethan, but he's got no clue as to how she looked like. "Those who don't have their wands with them, stay in the middle. Get cover behind those who does." And one of the acromantulas decided to pounce on another adult. “Now...quickly.” Mordred instinctively held his wand up as soon as the blonde woman counterattacked, and pulled the man (Leo) a few steps back toward their group so he could regain his composure.

A plan formed inside his head, as soon as the spiders closed in on them. As he stood among the group in the middle, he chose a spot facing the mouth of the trail where they entered. "We have to clear that section, and start moving towards that direction as one unit..." he murmured to one of the professors closest to him. Another idea came to mind, but he'd have to see if it was really the best option. But wait. What is this? Mordred's brows furrowed in irritation as he kept his eyes on the arachnids before him, while his ears listened to one of the students. Seriously. A diplomatic speech right after attacking them? If he was one of the arachnids, never will he believe her words.

But then again, what if there's another way around their situation without attacking the giant spiders like barbarians? Besides, they were already wasting time by talking nonsense to the creatures, so why not make use of the opportunity to learn a thing or two, yes? While the beasts were distracted, Mordred stood calmly with his group, and subtly pointed his wand at one of the arachnids. Non-verbally, he ran his experiment. "Animalis Fidelis." Well, it would take an impossible number of wizards and witches to perform the charm on a dragon, that he knows, but Mordred secretly hoped it will work on a smaller beast. "Come on. Let us go, and let us pass." Based on his comrades words, they all seem to be sharing Harmony Skylark's sentiment: Peace and Love all the way.

AND SAY WHAT?! Say what Knight??! The Ministry will stay? Well, he can go and stay and play the hero if he wants, but Mordred won’t. He already offered his hand to help in this mess, but no thanks, he’s not offering himself to die. Seriously, what kind of negotiation is that?

“You have to be kidding me.” The former Slytherin muttered under his breath without taking his eyes off the arachnids before him. At that point, Mordred wanted to kick his co-worker real hard. Was the concept really hard to grasp? They will fight as one, and they will get out of there as one.

Where was William Williamson when you needed him? His former professor and mini-bossman would know what to do...or say to charm the acromantulas.

Good Merlin.
