Flynn was....silenced. That was fine. It made her wand hand twitchy, but it was fine. This all was fine.
What else was fine? Schmoe's response to her. "Sure, professor." Was all she said in return. They could pretend this was the new way, Tavie was good at acting after all. She could keep up this charade for however long the term continued on.
Though she wasn't sure where this lesson was going until Schmoe finally revealed their activity. Tavie... had no interest in pretending to hunt her classmates. Nor did she have any interest in giving up her wand. Thankfully when the professor looked at her, he placed her on team wizard. Or maybe not thankfully, since she didn't plan on attacking anyone? Hmm. SPOILER!!: other team wizard kids Quote:

When they were split into teams, Eden hid behind some older students. She walked up to the piles of pinnies and put one on that clearly marked her WIZARD. She already barely got to use her wand - she wasn't trying to be told she needed to give it up for this class. Let some of the ~precious purebloods~ see how it is. Eden took a thick coil of rope and slung it over her shoulder.
The first year kept herself near other students (especially taller ones - it was a good day to be 4'8", okay?) and waited for someone else to say an idea. She worried some adult would make her be a muggle, and so was attempting to stay under the radar until the hunt began. Quote:

In fact, Aboli who? Valencia where? Flynn asking questions for why?
The little girl kept her eyes trained on the professor, choosing to ignore him whenever he addressed any of the disruptive kids who were still trying to get themselves and everyone else killed. As if being locked up wasn't enough.
With the questions out of the way, Emm moved up to the front. It was the greatest blessing in the world that Finneas Schmoe assigned her the role of wizard. There was too much room for error otherwise. Like her accidently pitching a fit about NOT being a filthy muggle then losing her friends all over again.
Emm got her vest and her hunting equipment, ready to fully get this show on the road.
And yes, even now, she still saw nothing and did not know what was happening.
At all. Quote:

It was really a testament to how things had been going recently, that the phrase 'Muggle Hunt' did not stir anything in Nem - probably because it was preceded by the words 'a game of', but who could really be sure. They went up to Schmoe and took the proffered vest from him, shaking it out to read the 'WIZARD' label. Smart man.
But they weren't very interested in taking part in the activity itself, and had yet to decide what they'd do. More than likely, they'd wait until the moment arrived, as per their previous answer. They bypassed the available equipment entirely and joined the wizard group, vest still held in one hand, wand in the other hand (and still in their pocket), and also opted not to say anything.
Being a team player never had exactly come naturally to them. Quote:

Such skewed perspectives on reality these days, but compartmentalizing things was one of the few coping mechanisms Atlas had to process everything he was seeing and feeling.
Though most things went into a rather large box labeled "THINGS WE JUST DON'T THINK ABOUT". Problems for future Atlas. Eventually. Hopefully never.
Part of him just wanted to be assigned to the muggle side of things...so he could hide, but there was also relief in being made a wizard. It meant...he didn't have to hide anymore and as long as he was doing some sort of casting with his wand then he was safe. As long as he was being a wizard...he was okay. Unaware of how much all this was truly warping and molding the young impressionable Gryffindor to certain whims, Altas gladly took the little vest and slipped it on before heading over to collect some materials. All his baking with Quinn earlier in the term...before everything went even more sour...had at least helped him hone a few spells that he knew he could rely on for this activity. So he hoped, anyway.
And since literally everyone else on the wizard team wasn't speaking...he would keep silent too. And also try not to make direct eye contact with Nemesis Upstead.
This was fine.

He could have equally done nothing.
Like the rest of them.
Lilith remained frozen on her spot and tried to keep her gaze on the professor. If she glanced at Aboli, Lilith couldn't promise to stay in her spot. And something about Aboli said 'no one come to my rescue'. So Lilith stared at the man ahead, her eyes burning with anger.
When it came time for the activity portion of the lesson, the Slytherin slowly made her way to grab a vest and be sorted into the wizards group. She was slightly relieved. For far too long she's felt the hunted here. Now she wasn't. No completely.
Shrugging the vest on, she went on to join the wizards group, making sure to stay as far away from Nem as possible. Some of their answers in lessons this term disturbed her. There was no way she was getting close to that.
It was so quiet, which Lilith was okay with. She needed to get herself together before casting. Waiting for the rest to join, she remained quiet, wand already in hand. Quote:

No context, take that as you will. He meant it mainly for himself. Was it alright to place a Muggleborn on the Wizard Team? He put on his Wizard pinnie and took just one net.
He turned away from the Muggle Studies Professor then looked over to where the Wizards were gathering and joined them. Standing next to uh...Aries? No Atlas. Who really cared. Quote:

She could recall playing something similar to this at home with all the kids in her family. They always had a great time playing it too. Now... well... with everything going on, it felt wrong. Getting to use magic and nets to capture one another? This might have sounded like more fun if their current situation wasn't as it was.
Hearing her name spoken along with Wizard, Lia sighed. Truthfully she would've preferred to be on the Muggle side, then at least she wouldn't have to capture anyone. Silently she made her way over to collect a vest, tugging it on over her robes then grabbed a net as well. Slowly she wandered over to join the Wizard group.
So what was the plan? Quote:

If she could pretend Aboli was fine, this day was really turning around for the twelve-year-old.
She went to the front and grabbed her wizard vest, and put it on, then pulled out her wand and shuffled to join the wizard group, with some girls her age and Moose and that Nemesis kid and...one of the Flamsteeds? No equipment for this child, she had her wand, after all! She was kind of excited to chase and capture her classmates. It was just a game, right? Mamie was competitive, so...she was going to put her whole effort into this game, Inquisitorial Squad present or not. "I think we should split up," she suggested, since it seemed nobody else had any strategy ideas. As seen five minutes ago when Schmoe agreed with her spell suggestion, Mamie had good ideas. Even if she was a Muggleborn.
Dutifuly Octavia went and retrieved her pinny. She did not retrieve any supplies, however. Being sixteen and having her wand, she was perfectly capable of summoning those objects or casting a spell. That was the point of this activity, right? That at least was how she would see it. This was wand practice with friends.
She went over with the other crowd of 'wizards', putting on her pinny and otherwise remaining quiet until one of the smaller students spoke up. "Alright." Tavie smiled a little at the second year Hufflepuff encouragingly. "If we split up, we should have a somewhat even number of upperclassmen with each group." Schmoe was still splitting up the class, so it was too soon to tell what team everyone was on.
