When the pain subsided, Quinn stayed kneeling, the flow of tears steadily streaming. He didn't have the willpower to get up. He didn't even realize he had lied, he was just confused! And scared! He could hear the man talking from the floor. About Muggles. It was like the man was far away, though. Quinn was dissociating, and he could faintly feel the resistance to the man's words in his head, but right now he couldn't handle being... here. So his mind took him elsewhere.

The man was an idiot if he thought she'd called him 'mister' as an accident, but Phoebe couldn't preen over that win after he removed her sister's MOUTH. HER MOUTH. And he was hurting students, carving words into their heads... it made her ill.

"My apologies, Headmaster. I didn't realize you had the qualifications and educational background to qualify for the title. I won't make that mistake again." Still completely polite, no sneer in sight, because honestly there was no way to express how utterly disgusted she felt with just a word or a glance or a sneeeeeer. She did sink down to press a handkerchief against the forehead of the first year cringing on the ground near her (Quinn).

She couldn't help him all, but she could help this one. And Kizzy would forgive her for not rushing to her side. "It's okay, bud. I have something in the Gryffindor dorm that will make this feel better. Just be... brave, I guess."
