Amarantha wasn’t in the least bit concerned about her own governess as she had both Hyacinth and her other younger sibling with her on this shopping trip and between those two, she’d probably be too distracted to chastise the girl for her behavior. But, she did consider toning down her bloodlust just a tad, after all, she wasn’t exactly trying to make enemies here - it was just a stupid game. “Then you shouldn’t be surprised if you almost get hit,” She mused, though maybe assuming most every student was playing the game was a bit bold, especially ones that were meant to be proper young ladies like the both of them.

She supposed it was quite honorable of that Victoria would opt out of playing the game in order to make it fair for the other students, but Amarantha would have taken that advantage and ran with it. “Look,” she said sweetly, softening her features, “I’m not really playing either - this,” she lifted her wrist to show the white band, “Belongs to my dear sister and I just wanted to help her out since playing this game means so much to her and she’s not really a great dueler. You understand, yes?”
