Just a Little Snow-Kissed Fun
Ruthie's snowball would not hit her target. The girl who had gone after Thora would remain unscathed for now. She looked across to Thora with an uneasy but determined expression. Her accuracy really should have improved after playing Chaser in Quidditch, but snowballs were not Quaffles it seemed. Ruthie was about to pick up some more ice and mold it into another snowball ready for launching, when it seemed like they were joined by yet more students.
One of them seemed to prefer magic over brawn and Ru watched him whip out his wand. The nearly white blonde hair she knew she had seen around the common room and at some events. He took aim at a nearby tree in an attempt to cover herself, Thora and their other companion in a strong blanket of snow. "Move!" Ru cried as she followed his line of sight, and hunched down. It was incredibly lucky, but it seemed the three of them had just barely managed to skirt out of the way.
Breathing quickened, the Scottish girl took a moment to recover. As she sheltered-in-place, Thora had another snowball coming her way, but she dodged spectacularly. Ruthie had to admire her friend's nimble ability. But Thora wasn't done. She launched a snowball towards her attacker and it hit her so wonderfully. "Well done, Thora!" she cheered.
And looking down, she noted the time and how she'd best be off to write her essay. "I'm gonna head," she explained to her Slytherin friend, "It looks like you're safe now. You got this." And with that, she pulled her bag over her shoulder, she crept up and over, past the fray and safely inside the school's doors.
Ruthie has left the thread. Have fun. | Interacting with @Thora Larkston.
