Honestly, Aboli regretted saying anything the moment the outburst happened. She had been SO good at holding her tongue the entire term, but here and now she was losing it?! Seriously?! What she did NOT expect, however, was THREE different spells hitting in such a short span of time.

First, there was the body-binding curse, which rendered her wandless and helpless. They probably knew they'd NEED to do that since she was skilled in nonverbals herself, and she was sure the minions had kept tabs on all of their skills. Or maybe not, and they were just cruel. Regardless, Aboli wouldn't have fought against these spells anyway - despite the outburst, she did not have a death wish, and her self preservation was currently SCREAMING at her for her lack of self control.

Then, there was the silencing spell - again, unnecessary, but she supposed she didn't blame them for wanting to make a clean job of it. Gotta make sure even if she DID have the fight in her that she wouldn't fight back. The stinging hex, though? That hurt. It was mild, but still. She was shocked to not receive an unforgiveable...she had prepared, in her own way, for receiving one for naught. Never too late, she supposed. Was she supposed to get up? No no - she was still very much STILL as a board. She would have been gritting her teeth had she been able to.

She was worried someone would try to help her. Like, no. Go away everyone. Aboli had had a TALK with Noah about letting her be if she ever got hurt. He was a muggle-born who couldn't afford to get into trouble. She was so utterly proud of him for doing nothing. Aboli knew how hard it must have been. Many of her classmates that she cared about weren't even looking at her, or looking at her helplessly.

Good.

Very good.

No need to get into trouble for her.

But then Valencia.......did that, and Aboli felt rage purge her entire being. Was she MAD? Stupid? DUMB? Or just dead stubborn? She supposed a mixture of them ALL because she undid???? the curse???? Aboli refused Valencia's hand and scurried up herself, seething. She was still under a silencing spell, but she sent daggers Val's way. Don't be a prat, you stupid Ravenclaw was what she wanted to say. But she didn't....she couldn't.

Normal circumstances...and Aboli would have taken Valencia's olive branch, so to speak, as a welcome thing, but today...this term?? This month? This WEEK??? She was irritated.
