Default Using Inept! in response so a class ability

Hello!

Player A who is a wizard is in a combat. He announces "I'm going to charm the monster so I get the treasure!"

Player B says "No you're not!" and plays the curse "Inept" on player A.

Is it legal for player B to play this curse in response to another player using a class ability or does Inept! have to be played prior to another player trying to use a class ability?

Thank you!

If player A had already discarded his hand to power the charm spell, then the monster was charmed. If player A had announced his intention but NOT discarded the cards yet, then player B's Curse would take effect. If the discards and the Curse hit the table at the same moment, assume the charm goes off before the Curse.

Thank you for your reply!

What if player A is a thief and announces he is going to try and steal an item from another player? Does Inept! have to be cast before the thief rolls the die or can it be cast after the die is rolled? Thinking back to the original "Curses can be played at any time"-rule.

Similar to the charm spell, the thing that triggers the theft is the thief discarding a card. Once the thief discards a card, it is too late to play "inept".
