Her dad would spend all day in his study if her mom didn't force him out. And her, she was always able to get him out of that room.
"Your doing good." She commented lightly. Good enough that Arya didn't even think the younger girl needed her help.
Quickly she shook her head. "Nooo, never. Not my cup of tea." Her brothers, and apparently a good few of her friends. "I meant horses when I said ridding, and I climb trees all the time, sometimes I do rock climbing." She preferred trees though. "That sounds like an awesome holiday trip though."
Arya had to giggle at their bit of miscommunication. "I was speaking more of muggle activities and sports when I said that, though those games are fun as well." She nodded her head while doing a quick spin. "My dad is trying to teach me wizards chess." And had been for a while now.
"What does your dad do?" Something time consuming it seemed.
Ellie smiled. She was?
"I like this," she nodded. If Arya thought she was doing good, she might brave some more stuff. Like turning smoothly. Or jumping. That seemed most fun. And spinning!!
No Quidditch?!
"Not even a leisurely game or something?" No Quidditch at all.... that was just unfathomable. About the horses,
"Oh..." Totally didn't see that coming,
"That sounds really cool." Truthfully it did. She liked horses.
"Oh..." She said again.
"What muggle activities?" This was SO intriguing. Ellie only knew of a handful of muggle things from visits to her cousins'. She wrinkled her nose at Wizard Chess,
"It's far too complicated for me. My grandmum gave me a set last year and I couldn't figure it out for the life of me. Especially when all the little guys start shouting at you." Maybe she'd be able to think clearly if she cast silencio on them or something... That was an idea.
