Everett was honestly a little perturbed that no one had targeted him. Sure, he was really just standing there and watching the projectiles whip across both sides, waiting for one to come towards him to catch but... really? Clearly no one on the field saw him as a threat and that was deeply upsetting. Was it because he was a wallflower of sorts? Genuinely he didn't know many people on the field. He knew his fellow classmates from Ilvermorny, but past that it was strangers on a vicious hot-and-cold battlefield.

His eyebrows furrowed as he contemplated the best ways to seem more menacing. But he quickly was reminded that he was a lanky boy with no physical prowess. He did not spend a lot of time on the more- physical of sports team such as Broom Racing or Quidditch which would build up strength and balance. He excelled in spell casting and while that required a lot of focus- it did not require a ton of strength. Leaving him to be a weird boy in the center of a battlefield that cared not for him.

He watched as both sides had a decent amount of their people take out. Yikes- maybe he shouldn't have wished to be such a more enticing target. A race of fear ran through his spine as he considered the implication of less opponents to choose from, and the potential for more projectiles his way. This couldn't end fast enough for the poor boy.

Roleplaying as approved iNPC Irina Liliya Zvereva

At once, Irina started rethinking her life decisions. This whole thing was obviously so very stupid. The texture of the sand was weird, almost artificial. She was so used to the snow under her boots, both in her school and in this camp, that this almost felt out of place. She had signed up though, and there was no going back.

She grabbed one of the water balloons, observing in fact, how squishy it was. Odd, she thought. She threw it across the arena to a small blonde haired girl, who surprisingly caught her balloon, redirecting it to another team mate of Iriliya’s. It was definitely a bit odd to her. She touched the balloon right? The British definitely have some very odd rules. She herself stood behind a sand dune, the obvious choice as it protected her from other snowballs. But surprisingly, no one targeted her. Odd.

The girl stood there. What was she going to do next? Several people got hit with snowballs and exited this arena they were in. But who was in the lead? Who knew. She saw some other children throwing balloons, dodging, generally playing the game. The sooner they won, the sooner she would get out of there. Time to win folks.

July 24th Outfit

Rose's gaze swept the playing field as balloons and snowballs were thrown. None came her way, thankfully, but she spied Kim getting somebody from her own team out. She didn't know that many people on the winter team, but she did know that Kim was an impressive duelist, so she didn't want to have him on the other side, especially if she wanted to win. She threw her water balloon towards Kim Sato. It hit him with a splash, and he was disqualified. Just in case he felt offended by her targeting him, she called across the field, "Sorry!"

She meant it, of course, since she did feel bad for getting him out, but she wasn't really sorry- she came here to win, and it was just a friendly competition. She saw Drew fling a water balloon towards someone else she knew: Mylo. Maybe that wasn't completely fair- a rising sixth year going after a rising second year. But still, she had gone after someone a little younger than her, so maybe she didn't really have a place to talk.

Rose surveyed her surroundings. She didn't know anyone on the other team now, and the numbers had dwindled a little, but the other team had slightly more. They were going to have to step up their game a little bit if they were going to bring this back to a draw.

Drew looked around, finding a blonde kid that seemed younger than him (I'm sorry Mylo ). He didn't think much before chucking the water balloon towards him. After already catching one water balloon, he was either didn't expect to have to catch another, or he just didn't have the good luck of sunglasses that Drew did, but the water balloon splashed on them, making them out, too. The Ilvermorny student was pretty sure it was the latter- his sunglasses not only brought him style, but helped him focus. It was as his cousins said- he was locked in. And nobody had shot at him that round. It could have been because he was one of the older participants, but Drew would have bet money it was the sunglasses.

He saw Rose hit someone and then call an apology across the field. He almost told her to stop apologizing, because it took away from the intimidation of the sunglasses, but he didn't want to distract her. At least she hit somebody- all those duels were paying off in their definitely more important battle of the seasons.

"Nice shot!" he said instead, "I think the sunglasses are working," he told Rose with confidence, mostly joking. But hey- they had to face the facts. Both of them had hit their targets, and weren't out, and they were both wearing sunglasses. The data was there.

AJ clicked his tongue in slight self-admonishment as his snowball sailed past his intended target. He couldn't quite tell if his throw was off or if his opponent was just incredibly swift, either way didn't change the fact that he had missed. "Ah dern...jus' hafta kep treein." "Ah darn, just have to keep trying." He did return Hanako's wave though, no reason they couldn't be friendly.

The exchange had gone quite well for Team Winter all things considered though. They had lost some of their number, which is always disappointing of course. But they had eliminated a decent few of Team Summer. So all in all they couldn't be too upset.

He kept an eye out for incoming projectiles as he tried to figure out what to do next. Perhaps he was better hunkering down for a bit. Although he supposed missing didn't exactly make him a prime target to be taken out...decisions decisions.

He didn't really want to go for any of the lower years that were participating. It seemed like a pretty desperate tactic to score an elimination on someone several years his junior. Not that it had stopped a lot of his opponents, or his own teammates for that matter.

Maybe he should just build a snowman? That was always fun!

French English Thoughts

Jamie was throwing her snowball and was very happy to see it connect with her target, getting another one of team summer out of the game. She had seen quite a few snowballs connect with the others and was confident enough in their skills that team winter would win.

Not having seen any water balloons come her direction Jamie was pleased to not have to dodge anything, not that it meant she wasn't keeping her eyes out for anything flying her way, but it did mena she didn't have to dodge and throw, which made throwing a lot less difficult.

Looking around she gathered another snowball in her hands, there were quite a lot of people around still on team summer who seemed to have quite some skill in the game, and it made Jamie wonder if she would be targeted this round or not. Of course hoping she wouldn't be as it would mean she didn't have to worry to much about dodging, but it was quite the wish in a game like this.

Choices, choices, so many to make and so many strategies she could implement. But only one came directly into her mind. And so she did what she did best, do her absolute best to win.

WC 219/200	Color Legend - Mylo | Thoughts

Mylo was quite surprised as a water balloon came flying at them, and their first instinct was to hold out their hands and catch it. Which worked! Then came the panic of what to do with it, so he just tossed it at the first person he could see from team summer, which unfortunately meant that it did miss. Not that Mylo was surprised by that in the slightest, it had been a chuck more than a throw in all honesty.

The panic had meant that Mylo didn't see the second water balloon hurtling towards them, thrown by a boy from team summer they didn't recognise. Someone Mylo did recognise was the girl standing near them, whom the guy who got Mylo out seemed to be talking to, Rose!

Mylo hadn't realised she was playing as well, to occupied with the game itself to have noticed. But starting to walk over to the side to watch the rest of the game Mylo waved over at her, not wanting to distract her too much although it would mean team winter could maybe get a hit in.

"Hey Rose! Good luck!" He shouted, smiling at her. "Also team winter, good luck everyone!" he said, before walking over to the side and taking a spot to watch the rest of the game.

Snowballs and water balloons were soon flying through the air. It was probably a little unfair for team winter—the snowballs were going to melt when they hit the sandy oasis on the other side, right? And the water balloons were going to turn to terrifying ice balls when they came toward Quentin's team? Maybe the power of magic was going to make all of this work, or maybe it was another attempt to kill the international body of magical students.

Either way, Quentin had his game face on. He knew that his strong suit was not quick, lithe movements—he was often too careening and bulky to pull that off. He tended to barrel through things haphazardly. Knowing his weaknesses was an essential part of winning, so he cautiously hid behind a large snow pile. He barely peeked his head out, trying to see if he could just catch a water balloon coming his way so he could redirect it back at its owner.

He might have been too hidden because, unfortunately, no water balloons sought him out, and he could barely see the carnage from his hiding spot. From the noise, there were still a lot of people standing, so he started to calculate his next move—and he did a few more squats for good measure.
