 Baguette | there is no D in my name | TRAITORclaw | Queenie of Narnia
Even just a little bit of Quidditch stuff helped a little. Paying attention to throwing and catching the Quaffle, plus keeping an eye out for the snitches the professor would release, distracted Ivy enough to ignore her anger for now. At least the pool did allow the students whose brooms had been destroyed to participate, even if it wasn't the same.
There was still some lowkey chaos going on, and then the five snitches were out and about, but for a moment it felt like normal flying lesson chaos.
Ivy directed her broom down, diving for the easier-looking snitch that was just hovering above the water.
And then the hooded creeps made everything even worse with all their nonsense.
Water was pouring out of the pool, people were yelling, kids were falling - including her, startled as she was by the new turn of events.
She pulled up, not sure she was quick enough to avoid a rough landing, but suddenly her broom sloooowed...to a stop, her feet hovering a few centimetres above the ground, thanks to the quick spell from the Professor.
Merlin's beard...yeah, the anger had returned again.
But still, Ivy kept her mouth shut, focusing instead on lowering her broom the last little bit so her feet touched the ground. She dismounted her broom, still gripping it tightly in one hand. She hadn't really touched the water, outside of grabbing the ping pong ball earlier, so she didn't need to use the towels.
She almost wanted to hang around to make sure everyone else was okay, not that she could actually do anything. The Healer and Professor Aguilar would take care of them just fine, and sticking around might somehow make everything worse. So she settled for walking by the professor and saying, "Thanks for the lesson, Professor." It wasn't his fault everything had gotten derailed, and she appreciated how he had tried to keep the lesson moving and allowing everyone to participate.
But it was time to head back to the castle now, so Ivy followed a few of the other students heading in that direction.
