Dustin wished Alex was here. Alex was so calm and he always knew what to do. Dustin was never calm and he didn’t know what to do in situations like this one. He signed up to be a bodyguard, not a... whatever this was. Even against magic? Hmph. “Yes.” He had lots of things to say, but he decided to be like Alex instead. Quiet and understanding. And stuff.
“Don’t think muggles can wield wands mostly, but there are other things.” But she bet there was a way to make a wand like these carnival wands but for real life. Attach a spell to an item and trigger the spell when you wave the object around. She bet muggles could use self-shuffling playing cards... this had to be similar. She lowered her voice. “Well, I already told him like three summers ago, so that bridge has already been burned.” She shrugged. ”Oops. Come after me, I dare them.” She stared up at the sky, as if daring the universe to do it. Nothing happened. Yeah, that was what she thought would happen. Ash, interestingly enough, kinda hated the statute of secrecy. She knew better than to reveal her identity to everyone she met, but Dustin and Alex were different. If the law said she couldn’t tell them, she’d just go ahead and break it. She wondered if she’d ever be arrested for this. She doubted it.
Anyway. This was a carnival, not a discussion about when and how she was going to be arrested. She aimed at the snitch but missed, only by a little bit. Dustin patted her on the shoulder. She shrugged. “I’ll try again after you two go.”
Lisa was both simultaneously relieved and sad that Ash didn’t want to rule the world too. Ash not wanting to rule the world meant that she didn’t have to compete with her friend-sister which was a relief. And she should focus on that. Yeah, it was good not to have to compete with someone over world domination. She nodded. “
Queen’s have fun too.” Ash would still rule over something.
She nodded when Ash reminded her that there were other things Muggles could use. “
That’s true...” Other items could be helpful for muggles to use if they couldn’t use wands. Lisa listened to her friend and offered her a secretive smile before chuckling. Heh. Yes. “
I’ll be here with you. Wand at the ready with pink sparkly converse on.” She would always stand with her friends. With friends and love, they were unbeatable.
She offered Mr. Aguilar a smile and aimed her wand towards one of the Snitches. Narrowing her eyes to help herself focus, she then fired the wand at the snitch.
