Not happening.
And though she'd not given Ivy much thought before now (soz), Florrie found she was very grateful for the Ravenclaw being there. Especially when she called Scarlett back so that she didn't have to. "I'm not sure what we're supposed to do, because if this was real I would probably go in the opposite direction," Florrie was thinking aloud, for her own benefit as well as the other girls. "But this is a lesson, and I don't see any door, so maybe we have to... defeat the hinkypunk?" 'Defeat' for want of a better word. Either way, she was open to Ivy's thoughts, and she was keeping an eye on the first year. Quote:

The light promised freedom from it all, and Ivy very much wanted to get out of this place.
But fortunately she had Florrie and the Hufflepuff first year - she really ought to find out her name, but she hadn't been able to get a look at her name tag yet - with her...or at least she had Florrie, because the first year didn't seem to be listening to her and was wandering towards the probable hinkypunk now.
Though...the older Hufflepuff had a good point. Realistically they should go in a different direction, but considering the circumstances surrounding the bog? It would probably be too easy to just walk away and stumble upon another door out of there.
Ivy nodded. "That makes sense to me," she said, taking several careful steps forward. "Looks like someone wants to lead us in that direction anyway." She nodded in the first year's direction. They couldn't just leave her to face the creature on her own. Again, sticking together didn't seem necessary when it was all pretend, BESIDES, that ignorant of a Hufflepuff didn't want her company, so Scarlett wouldn't bother either.
She also pretended she couldn't hear the girls, although she COULD and WAS. Nothing useful was coming from them and the hinkypunk seemed to be just chill--
GREAT BALLS OF FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" The little girl SCREEEEEEAMED and splashed bog mud all over the place as she started flailing and running around. "OW!!!!!!!!" SMALL BALL OF FIRE HIT HER RIGHT HAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good thing she was left-handed, huh? Still. "OW!!!!" Tearful glares at YOU, fake!hinkypunk. She'd have to go to the hospital wing afterwards for SURE.
The Hufflepuff shoved her burned hand in the bog mud, which soothed the burning feeling straight away. Phew! But THEN!!!!!!!! Oh, THEN!!!!!!!!!!!! THEN!!!!!!!!! She pulled her hand back out of the mud and started running TOWARDS the fake!hinkypunk, her lit up wand stretched right in front of her.
DIIIIIE, FAKE!CREATURE, DIIIIIIIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
