Not in the mood? That made two of them, Lachlan. Unfazed for the most part, Valerie left her housemate alone with his thoughts. He was entitled to those as well as his mood and would not argue otherwise. She would expect the same to be reciprocated.

And while they were on the subject of not being in the mood...

First her corporeal patronus and now her hex. The miss only fueled her annoyance with everything and she could feel all the muscles in her face tightening as her jaw clenched. Tempted to cast again, her eyes caught those of Jesus' briefly and rather than a silent incantation the Wampus was groaning in her head. He better rethink his actions if he was planning on lecturing her right now, which was just the sort of look she shot him back as he moved closer. Only it seemed as though his intended target was not her for once. Far too caught up in her own annoyance to notice that one of the Hogwarts champions had also been pointing her wand at Madelyn, she was quite perplexed when it seemed as though Jesus were drawing on her when she had already holstered her cherry wood wand.

Thankfully the Hogwarts Headmistress had risen and was announcing the results along with fussing at them all about this and that (the latter of which mostly fell on deaf ears). Kyle in first was palatable, she supposed, and her indifferent exterior gave way to a satisfied smirk when she heard her name called for second place. But then there were four others called along with herself in the second place position. A five-way tie?Interesting. Still, satisfactory results for now.

Someone please teach Brenton more vocabulary? Perhaps this girl, Skylar, could do them all a favor? She quickly decided she was paying far too much attention to the lopsided love triangle evolving before her eyes and was about ready to leave when Madelyn had other plans in store for her apparently. "I was not aware you had noticed," she stated plainly. Seeing as the blonde Wampus had been preoccupied with hugging Aurora and such. She was on the verge of continuing to make her digs (apologizing for missing) at others when she once again caught Jesus' look and felt herself deflate just enough to hold her tongue.

As the crowd began to disperse, Valerie too began making her way out and stopped by Kyle to grab him by the collar of his shirt to drag him along with her out of there. Maybe she could unleash upon him before Jesus eventually found her.
