To say that Bastien had been 'a little put out' about loosing his last duel would be an understatement. He hardly EVER lost anything, and now he was loosing to Hogwarts students in duels. Never mind her being older. A loss was a loss. He wouldn't let it happen again.
So it was with a vengeance (albeit small one, since Sharky asked a favor of him) that he marched into the arena, wand in hand. He bowed, then fired off his first spell. "Everte Statum!" Then the tall fourteen year old was on the move again.

Another day that Rooney was dreading, and it was starting the way he knew it would go on. With him ultimately on his backside. The Ravenclaw had bowed to his opponent and taken the appropriate steps back, only to stumble and sit on the floor with a groan. Clearly, he was brilliant at this. Clearly, he was going to be dreadful today. It was all because he had won his last duel, honestly. You win some, you lose some. Unless you were Rooney Bronwyn and you won by default or just when you didn't deserve it. "Sorry.." He mumbled, getting back to his feet and standing with his wand at the ready. Was it possible that he could have this duel go the way he wanted today?
More than likely not.
To say he wasn't in the right frame of mind to begin, was an understatement. But Roo was quick to fire out a "Protego!" in the hopes that it would do something. He was in luck, because he wasn't thrown in any which direction, and just prayed that it hadn't been deflected into the stands. HIS WOMAN WAS PROBABLY OUT THERE. But he didn't have the chance to look for Miss Charlotte, because he was already a step ahead of himself and casting a Scorching Spell over at the other third year in the arena.

Bastien saw the shield being thrown up, and was calculating his next move when fire was sent his way. No way he was gonna try and dodge that. "Aguamenti." A stream of water was sent at the flames, dousing them all, and leaving up a cloud of smoke.
Deciding to try and use this to his advantage, he then cast a Shooting Spell, using the air from that spell to send all the smoke at the other boy as a distraction. Then he followed that up with Stinging Hex.

Bugger.
Rooney took a quick breath of clean air before the smoke came his way, but it wasn't good enough. The Ravenclaw felt his lungs fill with tarnished air and he rolled to the right to avoid anything that his coughing was delaying against his hearing. Lucky that he had moved, as the arm he held high (not his wand arm, luckily) seared with pain. A quick glance presented him with a scene he had only properly witnessed in his wildest nightmares. Red welts down his forearm and across his fingers. His arm was definitely out of use for the rest of this. Immediately, Roo's voice rang out. "Carpe Retractum!" He used that to detract from him standing once more, the smoke dissipating and revealing the true state of his arm. The pain was much worse than it looked though, and Rooney swore under his breath and decided to man up.
Miss Charlotte was in the stands and she needed to see that he wasn't a baby or soft or anything like that.
Once he was standing at his full height, the blonde pursed his lips, cocked his head slightly and cracked his knuckles. (In his imagination, because one of his hands was oUT OF THE BALL PARK RIGHT NOW AND IT WAS SO PAINFUL THAT HE WAS PROBABLY GOING TO CRY ABOUT IT LATER) That was what men did. Crack their knuckles and look cool. He looked cool in his imagination too. And probably a bit like a model, because that was always how he thought cool looked. The game was on and Roo was fully aware that his opponent was giving as good as he was hoping to get, so he was gonna try play up to that. He would act. His character was a great dueller. His character knew the ins and outs of battle plays. His character was in charge.
"Slugulus Erecto!"
His character liked slugs.

Bast couldn't completely see, but he could hear that his second spell had hit it's mark. The third year tried to move around the smoke in attempts to keep it between them as a shield. Unfortunately it didn't do him much good for protection as he heard a spell shot at him and quickly cast up a shield. "Protego." His shield reflected the spell right back to him, but just before he was able to cast another after dropping it he felt a spell hit him, and....
Vomit.
Lots of gross slug vomit.

Alongside everything that could have happened today, Rooney was absolutely kicking himself for letting his wand skills be this bad. He was supposed to be being manly, he was supposed to be a complete adult... and here he was, just messing everything up. He thought though, that it couldn't have gotten worse after living through his opponent making mince meat of him. The rope curled around his ankles and he was the sucker that just watched it happen. He didn't make a move to use magic and get rid of it, and he didn't consider that it was a probability, actually. Rather, Rooney looked toward the other third year almost waiting for him to tell him how to fix this.
But... he was greeted with the sight of slugs spouting from his cake hole -- or was it a slug hole now? Black hole? Bug hole? Gross hole? Oh, it was a hole and it was something awful alright. His nature wanted him to ask whether he was okay, but his manly man-ness was making darn sure that he did nothing of the sort.
And instead, he tried to wiggle his ankles out of the rope, left and then right. And then left and right again. And again. And-- oh.
Look how the Eagle fell to the floor, landing straight on the arm that was blistered and red. Rooney gave out a pained cry, clutching his arm to his chest, but continued to try get his ankles free before the slugs stopped doing their thing over there.
Speaking of...would they have enough time to crawl over here??

Nothing. Not even some of Dima's REALLY vegan foods tasted more gross than slugs spewing out of your mouth. Nothing. And Bast LIKED vegan foods.
He did not like slugs. They made him want to vomit more, but he had a duel to win, so when all the vomiting was over he wiped his mouth on the back of his arm and looked over at Rooney who was getting free of Bastien's last spell. He stood clear of the mess that was the slugs and sent another stinging hex at the ravenclaw.

Infuriated at everything that was happening, Rooney sat up and pointed his wand at the rope around his ankles. He was getting rid of them right now and he was then going to do everything he needed to to regain his dignity in this stupid duel with this stupid person and stop feeling like a stupid idiot. Miss Charlotte was probably watching and embarrassed for him. Hell, everyone was probably embarrassed for him. This was almost as bad as dueling that stupid Blaise Bellaire. SO MUCH STUPID IN DUELS. Instead of letting his thoughts take over more than they had, Roo cast a severing charm against the ropes, mindful of his ankles because he didn't NEED more damage. "Diffindo!" The ropes came away and he tossed them aside with a triumphant breath and some determination at least.
He supposed he could have tried to sort out his arm, but he was going to battle on and hope it gave him pity points as that was ALL he was going to be able to come away with after this poor show. What he hadn't been banking on was another stinging hex coming his way, but he was able to curl into a ball tight enough to protect his wand arm and for it to hit his back. Sure, he felt like he was well on his way to just giving in and laying there, but he tried so very hard not to let it show. He didn't cry. He winced, yes. He didn't shout, but he did murmur something inappropriate, throwing his wand hand up into a more inappropriate gesture. Ugh.
He didn't think it was a good thing for him to stand or anything, so instead he reached across the floor for the closest slug to him, set it in front of him and put the first part of his new master plan into action. "Engorgio!" SWELL SLUGGY, SWELL. HAHAHAHAHAHAH. This was so very swell. So was Sluggy. Sylvester the Slug. Honestly, was anyone going to make the big connection here with him using slugs and Miss Charlotte having snails? SERIOUSLY. CONNECTIONS.
Another spell went at the growing slug, "Oppugno Slug!" Rooney kind of pleaded for the slug to move forward and eat his opponent, but that was a little extreme and he wasn't sadistic. Although he was sure he would find it funny one day in his future. His wand kept pointing forwards, directing his one-slug army at Bastien. KILLLLLLLLLLL CAUSE DAMAGE, SYLVESTER.

............... Uh, Mr Bronwyn?
Sure, there was a good duel going on but the man couldn't help but start to make his way forward when he saw the young Ravenclaw get scorched, so to speak. He had every intention to stop the duel there, to just let the two boys rest it out and maybe come back to it another day but Rooney was fighting on. Merlin! He didn't have to, you know.
But when it continued, the man stayed where he was, his eyes peeled for any other accidents. When nothing came by the time the time was up, he simply put up the magical shield before making his way over towards the pair, particularly Rooney. "Mr Bronwyn, are you okay? Are you hurt?" Did he need the Hospital Wing?
Merlin.
Taking a deep breath, Hirsch turned towards Bastien and smiled. "Congratulations on your win, Mr Toussaint. You did a good job. Both of you did."
