Note to self: Warn people next time before you assume that they're paying attention. The moment the water bottle flew from her hand, while it was a nice throw, Skylar watched in horror as it came smack with the Healer's forehead. Oh, Pretty Healer's face, by the love of Merlin, Skylar just hoped it would survive. But, what came next, distracted the horrorstruck look on the fourth year's face as he proceeded to award her points. Wait, wait, she hit a professor - albeit on complete accident - and earned points? Unexpected, but not entirely unwelcome either. Even if she'd mostly obtained the extra bottle of water because she was getting one for Brent and figured she might as well.
"Thanks, and uh, sorry about your head." Hey, at least it didn't look like an injury that would land him St Mungos like with Noah. And Valerie was coming to, for which Skylar decided to not watch her conspicuously at least and instead took note of the fact that Brent pretty much downed the entire bottle of water in like one gulp. Just how dehydrated was he? Allowing herself to fall into his one-armed hug, she smiled and glanced up at him. "Anytime," and wait, was he amused by her hitting the healer? Or earning points for it? Or both? Her cheeks growing warm, as she pondered more about the incident, it wasn't until she noticed the Headmistress that she realized they had yet to announce the winner.
Deep down she of course wanted Brent to win, even if she knew that he was undecided yet about University, but there was also the logical part of her brain that was telling her that he hadn't performed as well as the other three. They were all brilliant though and regardless of who won, it couldn't be denied that they all showed incredible amounts of magic and skills, proving themselves worthy of even the opportunity to partake in the competition.
In fourth place, Brent Westwood ... and honestly, as soon as she heard that, the rest of the Headmistress' words trailed off and became a blur. While she was immensely proud of him for even making it to the top four of two prestigious Wizarding Schools, it didn't really matter to her who won. And it wasn't until the Headmistress started walking toward the competitors that she realized she missed the actual announcement of who the champion was. See, all that suspense and prolonging? For what?
Oh, when she felt Brent turn from her side, she glanced at who he congratulated. Kyle Baker, she should have known. The kid was pretty genius when it came to his wand and spell knowledge. At least Ilvermorny didn't come as the guess school in vain, but got to go home victorious? It actually, in some sense, made Skylar wonder about the quality of education over at Ilvermorny versus Hogwarts. Even in the third challenge, they were dominating Hogwarts and for one of their own to take the championship. Good for them.
"Congratulations," Skylar muttered to Kyle out of politeness, since she had been standing relatively close.
Okay, could they go now? While it was because of IMPS that gave her a boyfriend, she was actually grateful that it was over. And that soon the castle would be much less crowded, with it being just the Hogswartians again. "Ready?" she asked, reaching for the older snake's hand.
