It's against the playbook to cast spells directly on an opposing player in Spelldrive. I saw what you upperclassmen did. You fired off your spells at me, not at the disc. That, and you keep purposely running into me and trippin' me up. You're skirting the rules, hard.
Savanaclaw Student A
Hey, c'mon, Jack. The ref didn't call foul, so what's the problem? Heh heh heh.
Savanaclaw Student B
Besides, you ain't even been in school a month. A little pup like you has no right talking back to his upperclassmen.
Pfft. Let's be real: I'm better at Spelldrive than either of you. I don't care if you're older than me. I'm not takin' orders from guys who can't even play on my level!
Savanaclaw Student B
Oh yeah?! Sounds like someone's cruisin' for a bruisin'!
I've heard about you. Rumors say you're a real promising athlete, even as a freshman. And I hear that in our dorm Spelldrive practice, you easily trounce the sophomores and juniors. Even the ones who fancy themselves tough guys.
You said they were "skirting the rules," which means they're still legal. There's nothin' cowardly about it. That's a legit tactic. Rule-wise, they're not causing any problems. YOU, on the other hand, are being disruptive to the team. That's a problem for the dorm.
...Hey. Don't even think about doin' anything stupid. We ain't got much time before the next interdorm Spelldrive match. Don't you guys have better things to do than playing alpha? You know what'll happen if you lose at the interdorms like we did last year, right?
Ah, you mean the sophomores who're jealous of all the attention Jack's getting for his athletic skills? The jealousy's sad enough, but Jack's attitude sure ain't helping. The world's not black and white. Not everything can be categorized as "right" or "wrong." Too bad he can't be more flexible, huh?
Housewarden Leona said not to start any trouble, but I'm still mad. Let's knock Jack down a peg. So what if he's a tough guy? He's still a freshman. He can't use magic worth a flip.
Savanaclaw Student B
Yeah, and he's made plenty of enemies. If we come out in force... Heh heh heh.
sigh* I'm so sick of morons who can't follow basic instructions. And seriously, who hatches a scheme like that out in broad daylight for everyone to hear? It's like, try using your brain for once.
Meh, I'm not gonna blame 'em for not accounting for our preternatural sense of hearing. So, what's our move here? If you ask me, it probably wouldn't hurt to let 'em put a little fear into Jack and teach him to respect the rest of his dorm.
M-magic?! But it's against the rules to use magic in fights... AAAGH! And these clowns just keep coming, no matter how many I beat down... Urgh... GAAAH!
Playing smart, huh? Look, I turned a blind eye while you guys were playing Spelldrive, but... Using magic in a brawl is a foul, full stop. If all you were doing was roughing Jack up, I was gonna write it off as rough play and let it go. But you guys don't have guts OR brains. That's why you're goin' to all this trouble just to take down one lousy pup.
You've got a whole squad here and you STILL came out lookin' like fools. None of you have what it takes to lead a pack.
Savanaclaw Student A
Okay then, wise guy... Are you sayin' YOU'VE got what it takes to lead us? 'Cause I don't think you do!
Savanaclaw Student B
Y-YEAH! What he said! All you do is slack off during practice anyway. Who're you to lord anything over us Makes a guy wonder if you're fit to be our housewarden at all!
Savanaclaw Student A
There're thirty of us, and two of you. You may be good, but clearly you can't do simple math. Thirty beats two every time.
Savanaclaw Student B
You can talk the talk. Now let's see if you can walk the walk!
Are those...fissures?! The Spelldrive field is huge, yet the whole thing is turning to sand... (This is Leona's magical might? It's in a league of its own!)
Yeah, sure. Whatever you say. You brought some rebellious dorm kids in line and put a promising freshman in your debt. Real "last resort" material right there, huh?
Well, sure. How could I ignore a poor little freshman getting bullied by his seniors? I'm the housewarden of Savanaclaw. It's all part of the job description, bucko.
