Her fiance wouldn't be happy with him if anything happened to her, especially as he was responsible for escorting her here and back to the castle efficiently. "You look great though, Miss Dora. I might borrow your outfit one day." He would find a reason to wear it. Or he'd ask his mother to draw inspiration from it and put a version together for him. T'was a blessing to have such a talented mama.

Giving the Gryffindor a spin, Roo forced a smile onto his features. "Talk to me about how you're preparing for the next challenge. Distract me." From his thoughts. From the stir in his brain and his stomach.

Dora couldn't help but smile as Rooney spoke. "If it weren't for you I would have bolted immediately. " He had calmed her nerves just as he had following the first challenge. The Gryffindor had been less than pleased with what had transpired, but the Head boy had been able to quell her anger and make her laugh. No small feat, that. "I came with Mason. Casper had to go home for the holidays." Apparently his father had laid an epic guit trip on him. Merlin love that man!

She would have blushed had it not been for his following remark to her appearance. "A few well placed charms and a shirt instead of a corset and you're all set! You can borrow my clothes anytime. And if I forgot to say so, you look smoking hot. Every girl in here is jealous I'm dancing with you. I can feel the envy radiating over us. " FACTS. Okay maybe no one was jealous of Dora, but Rooney did looking amazing tonight. Ha cha cha!

As she spun out and back to him with ease her features creased with a frown now. "It's infuriating really. With no clue to tell me what it is, it is virtually impossible to prepare. I've read all I can regarding past tournaments here, but they're likely useless. I've trained with my uncle more in defensive magic, but aside from that just normal practice. I feel like I'm preparing for OWLs all over again." And Roo knew what THAT had done to her. It was all she could do not to freak out about all of this. Truly.

"I mean... it's to prove our worth, right? That could mean a whole host of things."
