That was just plain rude to use him as an example.

Her attention had briefly been on the professors again. That is until....DOT had the AUDACITY to PET her HEAD?!!??!!?!?!??!!? Without thinking about it - and she did sort of have the excuse of being a little on edge, yes? - Maggie turned around and...slapped the other girl. Not before she heard the answer to her question however. It took her a moment to comprehend what Dot had said though.

There was Noel again. Along with the Headmistress. Who'd been kidnapped.

.....

"Noel is MISSING??" She repeated. Like...what?

Also sorry not sorry about that slap.

Maggie. Hit. Her. No one had ever physically struck Dot before, or even really handled her roughly, and all she could do was stand there with her hand on her cheek, eyes welling, and feel like the worst thing in the world had just happened to her. Maybe worse than Noel getting snatched or people being scared and crazy and mean. She went from feeling very very safe in her sphere of influence to realizing, sadly, that anyone could touch her. Hit her.

Hurt her.

And then she just turned around and expected Dot would be able to stand here and converse like nothing had happened. Dot pressed her fingers against the rising red mark on her face and hurried away. Figure it out for yourself, you horrible troll-baby.

It was pretty obvious that Dot wasn't going to be allowed to go outside, and she was starting to think she didn't want to. IN the heat of the moment, it seemed like she was SO brave, but mostly she just wanted to be doing something other than feeling all those... feelings. Terror and confusion and anger and ugh. All of those.

But she was also only fifteen years old, and not very brave or clever or interesting, and her face really HURT from where Maggie had hit her. So... mostly she just really wanted her mum, or Kyroh, or Dima... or anyone who would hug her and tell her they weren't going to have to do this anymore. Her best bet was to stick close to Professor StarMan, who wasn't foolhardy.

"I can help, sir professor man." She rubbed her cheek and waited for directions.
