 Orange team - mentions of Freyr, Claudine, and Phoebe Lovely™ | Captain Hurted | Ariana's Bane | Resident Antagonist | Unparalleled Delight
Look at that. A happy first year. Kaiser was responsible for that. Look at him go.
Oh, he'd missed the purple team first year (Freyr). That was a shame. Kaiser was a little tempted to try and aim for the same kid again, over and over until he finally got him, but he preferred to not give himself a reputation for picking on first years, thanks. Maybe if the kid caught his attention again.
One of the members of his own team was talking to him, Kaiser realised, and as he didn't want to be caught unawares even for a moment (he didn't want to get stuck, okay?) he quickly threw up a temporary Shield Charm. "Protego." Then he turned his head to look at the kid (Claudine), who happened to be most-likely-a-first-year from his own house. "Uh... not every single spell. But many of them. Some spells need a-" Specific, specific, what was the word for specific? "... an exact counter-spell." That would have to do.
Because Kaiser felt all kinds of uncomfortable about being the Responsible and Helpful Older Kid™, he decided to go immediately back to sticking some shoes. Turning his attention back to the purple team, he started moving around the room; once his Shield Charm was taken down to cast the next spell, being a moving target was his next line of defence. Unless he ducked behind some cover of course, but that was only helpful if he was near anything that could provide cover.
... But just as he spied another Gryffindor who was pretty much crying out to be stuck in place, the plant-licker made herself known once more, in a very Gryffindor fashion, too. She was already stuck. Tempted as Kaiser was to go ahead with his offensive spell first, they needed as few stuck team members as possible. After a moment's deliberation, he cancelled his shield and turned his wand instead to the first year's feet and cast from a moderate distance. "Finite."
Did it work? "Plant-..." Nooooo. "Hey you." Better. "Try moving."
Momentarily distracted? You bet. |
