Besides, those boys always were looking for a new ickle lion to join the ranks, so it would be really nice to throw him into the lot. After all, this boy was going to need lion brothers if he was a Gryffindor. All of the little lions were sweet though, so he would fit just in. But that was only a possibility if she saw that she could, in fact, train him. And not the sort of train that he had climbed. The redhead still was not so happy about that.
"Good," she chuckled, "It's just a safety thing. People at this school have been known to attack when they are snuck up on." Not shockingly, Selina Arden Skylar was one of those people. She just didn't like being snuck up on. It was not that she had anything against surprises because she loved those kind. Just not the type that involved scaring her and/or making her jump out of her skin.
The sorry at the tag end of his sentence was a sweet gesture, so she pet the little boy on his head, "Its okay. Don't worry about it, really." The sixth year was seriously not as scary as she always first came off. It was just, usually, when people first met Selina it was at try outs, where she was a loon, or in the Great Hall, where she was even more of a nutter. Beneath all of the crazy... WAAAYYYY deep down, Selina was actually really, really nice. There was a reason why people sort of liked hanging around with her. That and her best friend carried around cookies.
She couldn't help but smirk when he defended himself about not being ickle. The redhead hated to break it to him, but he was ickle- he was eleven. It seemed that his Napoleon complex was worse than her own. For her age, the Quidditch captain was very short, but hey she was FUN SIZED. However, Dylan was eleven so of course he was ickle. And even if he wasn't short, he was still and ICKLE FIRST YEAR... with cute pinchable cheeks.
Oh goodie. He was trying out for the team. Selina had tried out for the team her first year and it had been the best decision of her life. Even to this day she really enjoyed hearing that younger students were trying out. It never hurt to try and she always liked seeing them get the better of older students. THAT never got old. "You are," she mused, "That's great. What position you trying out for?" She was curious. Quidditch was sort of her thing.
Dylan was seeing new things just hanging out with his captain, she was actually chuckling now too? first a smile and now a chuckle? was she tricking him? he hoped not. But she didn't seem to be that bad actually so that was a good thing right since they are in the same house.
She said what now? "
They do? They get that scared that they attack? Who are these people? just for my safety you know.. I should know who they are" he smiled. Yeah and she wouldn't want him getting hurt right so she would tell him who they were.
If that chuckle and smile was surprising then the pat on the head was even more surprising, this didn't seem like the girl who had gone along with his punishment. But he went along with it anyways since she was being nice to him, he smiled as she said not to worry about it.
Yeah he saw that smirk when he said that he was not ickle, he knew that she was thinking the opposite that he was ickle just cause he was 11. But he was not and he would tell that to everyone that called him an ickle kid "
I am not ickle! I may be a first year but that does not make me ickle" he pressed on the issue cause he really didn't like being called ickle.
She wasn't mad that he was trying out for the team? Ok who was this girl and what had she done with Selina, seriously.. who was this older girl. She looked like Selina and sounded like her but she was not Selina! He nodded to say that he was in fact trying out for the team, wait did she say that was great!? Okay! He smiled a little before answering her "
Umm well I don't know what position I would be good at.. but I guess chaser or beater would be the one for me" well thats what he thought.. since he had never been good at any of the positions.
He would blame his dad for that who was often too busy off working and not playing with him enough. "
But I am sure with enough practice I will be the best quidditch player in the whole school!" yeah he would.. just how much practice that would take he didn't know but he would try his best to become the best!
