Telum was going to say something indignant, but then he took an elbow to the kidney.

"Congratulations, Aurelien." Young-Soo's voice was smooth, too smooth and too charming for him to really mean it. It quite possibly physically pained the lion to congratulate someone on beating him, but that's what he did. 

Most likely in no small part to the presence of the glowering Slytherin behind him.

"Ravenclaw did a splendid job winning the house cup this year."

"Bullshitter." Telum hissed, and once again he was tactfully shut up by an elbow making it's presence known somewhere around the area where he suspected his pancreas was. Rika herself looked bemused by the whole thing, taking in the sight of blue and bronze adorning every possible surface- and then giggling to herself as she caught sight of the two bickering boys in front of her. He took a tentative step back, aligning himself just so behind Young-Soo before he pinched and twisted the thin, sensitive flesh known as the back of Young-Soo's wrist. His smirk was triumphant as he watched the older boy meep, back straightening up as his face visibly flushed. 

Let it be known that Im Young-Soo never dealt well with pain.

Benjamin subtly slipped him a thumbs up, sporting a grin that could replace the sun all the way from the Hufflepuff table and Telum fidgeted awkwardly before tentatively raising a hand of his own. Then there was a pain from his stomach, a pain that burnt white and an obnoxious tugging right behind his stomach- as if someone had stuck a fishing line through his spine and latched on to his esophagus. He blanched, wondered why the hell Young-Soo wasn't with him because he could swear that he was still holding on to that guy's skin when he was yanked-  and then thanked his lucky stars that he used to be bullied so much because if he hadn't been used to being tossed around by an unseen force like a rag-doll he was sure he would have vomited his organs by now. It was a flurry of movement that he couldn't even attempt an explanation of.

When Telum awoke, the first thing he noticed was that there was a puddle of drool hear his face.

An obnoxiously loud blare that sounded suspiciously like a train horn. 

Then he noticed that the floor was rattling, occasionally jumping and hitting his head and with a small curse he leapt up, bumping against legs and people and suddenly the whole situation got a lot worse.
