That was what she would do. That or pull out her wand and poke them with it. O______o
Jeremy chuckled lightly at Lexi's next guess, however, she WAS getting pretty close to the answer he wanted to hear. "Why would you scream at the person?! But yes, that's pretty much what I wanted to hear." Pretty much. Without the referring to the hurt person as 'idiot'. Quote:

Well.....if she had come across someone lying around on the castle she would... "I guess I would stand over them a stare," she mused. "See if there breathing or not. Maybe poke them a bit to?" Was that the response he wanted? HMM. Stand over them and stare?! "What if they get up all of a sudden with you standing over them? That would...hurt." Especially if the got up Smack! into your face. Ouch. That and it would be quite embarrassing too. Quote:

"And then, after I realized they were there, I'd do all that other stuff?" Melanie suggested, raising her hand. Picturing the scene in his head with Melanie standing on top of the person on the ground, glancing down at them and being all, 'Are you hurt?', Jeremy couldn't help but laugh. "Well, I don't know about you but I normally do look where I'm going...to make sure I'm not stepping on other people's faces." He didn't know about her, though.
Note to self: Never lie on the ground when Melanie was around. She might just run you over. Literally. Quote:

Well, duh. "Yes, but how would you check if they're conscious or not?" Jeremy asked Salander, even though, some of his classmates had technically already answered that question.
And now back to the possible electrocution Mia had mentioned earlier. "But how would nudging the person with your shoe show you if there is a live wire beneath him?" Besides, how likely WAS that?! Quote:

Finally they had gotten the hint of what he wanted to hear. "Yes, correct, thank you, Vashti. Talking to them would be the first thing to do." And probably also the one they would do without him telling them.
Or in Lexi's case, scream at them. Quote:

Because if they were laying face first in the snow, well, her first reaction would be to laugh. If they looked hurt in one way or another...and still laying first face in the snow...well, she'd still laugh, but be concerned at the same time! There was a difference! "But pretty much, my first reaction would be, unfortunately, similar to that one girls'. Over there." *point*
Yea, that Gryffindork one who just said something about an idiot lying on the ground. He raised his eyebrows at Evelyn before with a small sigh and a rather amused expression on his face he asked, "Do I want to know why your first reaction would depend on the position the person is lying on the ground?" Probably not, right? "Now, as some of you have mentioned, the first thing would be to talk to the person. This is mainly to check if they are conscious and/or able to respond." Made sense, yes? "You would normally just say something like 'Can you hear me?', though, it doesn't really matter as long as it is something the person can reply to. If he is conscious that is, obviously." Duh.
"If we assume the person does not respond, the next step would be to nudge or poke them." Or slap them with the first-aid gloves. "Do anything basically which is painful enough to normally induce some sort of reaction. Don't kick them or anything like that." That would probably lead to more damage than if they had just walked by. "Again, we'll assume there is no reaction from the person on the ground. What would come next? Some of you already mentioned it before." |
