One minute Airey was giving her looks which were returned, mind you, and the next the poor man's back sounded as if it'd snapped in half. The head girl was tempted to look around for the sudden appearance of the groundskeeper cause y'know, dude was HUGE, but she knew he wasn't lurking anywhere.

And then lots of things happened. People were going to get the healer even though only one needed to go. Ella wasn't going to argue, whatever floated their boat. The next someone was getting the Headmistress. ...Okay. And Alec Blake Hair Whipper Summers was wearing the pants. The metaphorical ones cause y'know, of course he was wearing real pants already. Proud girlfriend was proud.

Too many cooks in the kitchen was never a good thing so Ella kept her comments to herself, merely moving to stand by the front of the desks to shoo anyone back who tried to make a run for it. Alec was handling everything well and West was being really helpful so there wasn't much else they could do but wait.

Airey would be fine. He had to be.
