He was growing even more aware of the throbbing coming from where his chin scrapped against the ground. Still he didn't get up right away, trying to allow his legs the comfort of just lying there for a second. Or sort of comfort. There was nothing comfortable about this, actually. Hadn't Professor Dakest said no injuries?
And that's when he saw the hand reaching towards him. Oh, well that was the least the guy could do. Offer him some help of the ground. Yeah, Zander wasn't angry then. Obviously this person didn't mean for him to get hurt. Offering a hand. It was a peace thing, he was sure. So before he got up he cast a quick, "Finite," on his own spell, allowing his entire self to reappear, before reaching over to grab the individual's hand. "Thanks," he said finally getting back on his feet with the help of that extended hand mhm.
Also, Merlin there were scrapes along his arms and legs too. Welp. You can't win 'em all. "I er... Owe you this, right?" he extended his sash over, clearly embarrassed that he had to give it up to a much... younger student. He sort of recognized this kid. He was the earmuff guy, right? Daxton was quickly growing impatient, stood there with a hand outstretched to an invisible person, looking like a total idiot, probably. He gave a huff, just as the boy on the ground became visible again. The Head Boy, Daxton quickly discovered, which was... interesting. One would have thought that the designated head prefect would have had a smarter plan for hiding than the one he had opted for.
Of course, there was not much time to continue on this line of thinking, because not a moment later, he had grabbed Daxton's hand.
Daxton froze, his eyes going wide as he stared at their hands, unable to do much else. It felt as though a thousand volts were going through his hand, like it was burning, and after a split second Daxton wrenched it away again.
Once the panic had passed, anger quickly took over. When the sash was dangled in front of him, Daxton snatched it from the older boy and promptly responded with an almighty shove (not unlike the time when Char had grabbed his hand when they had first met, causing Daxton to send her right into the fountain), maybe even giving the Head Boy an accidental zap with his wand at the same time. He did not hang around to exchange pleasantries (or not-so-pleasantries), but turned on his heel, shoving the second sash down his shirt with the first as he went.
Moments later, Daxton had scaled his way back to the top of his wall in the ruins, turned, and fixed the Head Boy with an unmistakeable glare. By his side, Daxton flexed and shook the hand that had been grabbed, trying to shake off the pseudo-pain that lingered. He had not even been hiding, and yet someone had still managed to inflict physical contact on him. This entire game was stupid.
Daxton took both sashes out from his shirt and bunched them up in his hand. In his other hand, he gripped his pine wand tightly. Nobody else was getting near him. Nobody.
