She felt he wasn't stupid enough to join in on a fight Alyssa started, and if he is, well then he is accepting the punishment that will come with this. Valerie already understood that she could be the one in trouble, she has seen how pureblood can use their influence to bury things like this. One big difference, this is to public. She was willing to take her chances.<br/><br/>So long as Alyssa has her wand up so does Valerie. This is the way Madame taught her, she used to have to hold the wand up for increasing increments of time without letting it drop; and she was always warned 'don't drop your wand if you do, you might just die.' The only time she was allowed to drop her wand if an instructor told her to stop.<br/><br/>She continued to ignore Lyre keeping eye contact with the now partly dry Alyssa "You should apologize to Fergus, to get mad at someone for an accident is bitchy, and to call someone filthy for being a half-blood is tactless and shows a lack of creativity; but to draw your weapon on a fellow student. All because you have such little self control that you become enraged from an irksome experience, That shows lack of character. You should prove that you have any grace and dignity by making amends for this foolish action." Her voice is level the entire time she is talking, more like a lecture or debate than an impassioned speech.<br/>
