Treyen smiled once the golden ball was in sight. It even looked as if Conan should be a Seeker, because well, the Snitch and him were almost meant to be. Or he just looked cool with it. The latter was probably most likely.
Either way, he just nodded before explaining a little, "Well, a new Snitch will be flying across the air, at a very rapid speed, which makes it hard to see, even harder to catch," he said, as he moved his hand to take it from Conan's, "It flies thanks to these wings," at the moment he touched it, wings spread from it, and it looked kind of pathetic, truth be told, because the Snitch wasn't even trying to fly anymore, it was just acknowledging his presence.
The tired ball kept on fluttering its wings without getting any obvious result. It couldn't get away.
"A Snitch that has been caught, will react the same way as this one, as if it was tired," he said, eyes flickering between the Snitch and Conan.
Conan nodded. He understood. So the golden ball was a snitch. He would have to write this on his hand. If he had a biro, and not in gloves. He would head to the library after this. Definitely. He needed that book. He would be super smart at this Quidditch lark.
"So you can only use it once. Hmmm" Wasn't that expensive? These golden things must cost like $1000 a time. That was an expensive game or practice.
His mouth dropped as he watched the wings unfurl. That was amazing. He would have to get one to take it apart. It did look very mechnical. He wanted to know how it worked. He would have to catch one. Yes. He couldn't even say anything he was that shocked. He had never seen one up close.
