Marina rolled her eyes. Men were just silly. "Guys, this IS teamwork," she said quietly. Her broom was still raised. Sort of. "How do you suppose we will 'strategize' - there is neither time, nor place, to come up with a plan. Everything we say is HEARD by the people here -" She meant the attackers - "So it's obvious we can't strategize."

"Sure, this is about teamwork but, given that this is the Department of Magical Games and Sports, it is also about split-second decisions, stamina and learning how to work spot-on."

"I would say it's a pretty good option is to do what we were doing -- circle our specific attacker. We're meant to use the broomsticks, to defend ourselves." Had they not heard Mr. Vindictus? "Some of us could have directed the attention of an attacker one way, and the others could have used that to their advantage." That WAS what she had been trying to do, you know -- until all these people here had managed to make her reveal the obvious out loud.

Men.

"New guy. Join these two." She rolled her violet eyes. "Oh, come ON! This is getting BORING. Do I need to tell you what to do? Start attacking me with the handle of your broomsticks!" fumed Xylia and she was secretly wishing that she had permission to use Unforgiveables on the group.
Wait.

Her gobstones - they had spit out lots of goo. Not too far behind Xylia. Could Marina use that to her advantage? Narrowing her eyes for a moment, she forgot all the talk, and headed straight for Xylia. She didn't hit the woman, but locked her broomstick with Xylia's, and pushed her backwards.

Could the she get the woman to slide backwards enough, so that she would slip? It was a faint hope, but it was there. And if it didn't work out -- well, there was always another chance.

Hopefully, anyway.
