Why was she asking this in front of people? Had she forgotten that there were other students around? And why was...was she caught up in thinking that she could change what had happened just by knowing this stupid spell that kept your stupid shield up without you needing to look after it? Huh?

He left her to it, deciding to practice by himself for a bit because he was still a little annoyed after earlier things and needed to calm himself. By casting.

Wand out, Rooney shot up a shield charm without properly thinking about it too much -- it had surprisingly become second nature around the castle and especially in circumstances out on the grounds. However, he had very little time to swap out that spell for the next when he stopped in his tracks to watch his girlfriend try and try again and then just...sit down. Roo wanted to immediately go over and crouch at her feet and ask her all about how she was feeling and hold her hand and everything that he would do at any other time.

He moved to where she was once she had gotten up again and stood immediately beside her. "Tell me what I can do to help? Do you want to practice after class? Do you want me to ask Hirsch if we can leave? Areyougoingtocry?" He wasn't ready for the last one of that. "I haven't done it yet, either.." Only because he had been too confused by things going on with his girlfriend, but he couldn't TELL her that.

And for extra help for when she next tried, Rooney leant in close and whispered that he loved her. Because he did. Even if people thought he was silly and they were stupid. "Try again." He had even pocketed his wand to focus on helping her out first.

Olivia hadn't expected Rooney to suddenly materialize beside her, offering his assistance...but in response, she could only make a face. Yes, she was struggling, but that didn't mean he needed to be. "It's okay, Rooney. I'm....I'm going to be okay." What a lie, but seriously, Liv didn't want him stressed out on her behalf. She was doing that well enough all by her lonesome. So, to assure him of her words, the blonde Gryffindor forced a smile. The best one she could muster. "I just need to do better with focusing. Practice.... It'll be fine." It wasn't that she was being ungrateful or anything, but Olivia Phillips also knew how seriously her boyfriend took his grades. The devastation of not sweeping his OWLs wasn't something she could easily forget, amidst her own drama. Rooney had been so disappointed and upset....

"Come on. Let's try together." Reaching down to grab his hand, she gave it a gentle squeeze before refocusing on her task. Protego, again, came easily....but before Liv could cast the second one, Professor Hirsch was calling time on their mini practice session. They were apparently moving on to whatever the main activity of the day would be.... Which had her wanting to throw up immediately. All the food that had just been revealed from beneath the table covers.... The smell along was enough to make her dry heave. Oh no. Oh no...... Proper motivation, though?

A moment later, she was raising her wand, tapping herself in the forehead. "Impervius." Technically, it wasn't considered cheating, as this spell didn't shield in the way that they were practicing. However, if things did get through....and she were to be hit, Olivia didn't want to deal with stains on her clothing. Depressed or not, the blonde one still continued to care about her outward appearance. Messy on the inside, put together on the outside. Kinda...

Merlin, her classmates were enthusiastic about throwing food, but then again........ It took her back to the beginning of her First Year, when she'd helped Blaise and Bentley start that food fight at the Welcome Feast. That had been a fun time. Lots of laughs and smiles... She'd met Rooney, unofficially, that day. They'd been shout!singing Disney tunes across the Great Hall at one another. Well, she had. Her's had been from Bambi...His had been Singing In the Rain...which wasn't Disney, but...... Appropriately hit with nostalgia, Liv leaned up to kiss his cheek before she tugged him into battle. Maybe this was exactly what she needed. To lighten up and just..... be carefree for a few moments. Carefree and decidedly ruthless. With her shield. And the food. Ugh... Touching the food.

Liv bit back more dry heaving.

Back to the idea of proper motivation, though..... Seeing a glob of custard sailing for Rooney's face, the Gryffindor didn't give herself too much time to overthink it as her wand whipped to the side, the Protego spell slamming up at once.... as well as, "Fiano Duri!"...hoping to stop the assault on his person immediately. Herself, she couldn't protect, apparently, but him.....? Well, that was different. So very different. The shield had worked!

Take. That.

Using her wand, she levitated at plate of spaghetti slinging it across the room towards a cluster of Slytherins. Sorry, Professor. She wasn't interested in touching the food. Nope.
