"Hey, Ma.... Professor Vindictus," Vivi wiggled her fingers at him. And then elbowed Gert again. He PROBABLY deserved it.

This was the one class every year where Selina knew she could go and just have a brilliant time. Any chance to get to fly during the day was something that she would happily take up. Even if she was the Gryffindor Quidditch Captain and knew quite well how to fly. And besides, she would much rather be here and flying then in the library doing work on some other class. The library always did give Selina the creepers. Also, she really wanted to get some fresh air. This whole fiasco with her missing beater bat had her head all messed up in every which way. Well, more messed up then usual.

Walking onto the Pitch, she nodded to Vindictus, "Hello Professor? Good summer?" Was he glad to be back at school?

If it weren't for the fact that Selina had FORCED Kurumi almost at wand point to sign up for Quidditch again Kurumi would not be here. Well, she would be here...but only long enough to deliver cookies to Professor Vindicus and maybe wait on the ground to see if he needed any assistance and then she would have scurried back off towards the castle. As it was...now the seventh year actually NEEDED this lesson. Especially if Selina was SOOOOOOOOOOO SURE that Kurumi would be able to play Seeker again.

Kurumi loved her best friend, really...she did. But the girl had gone completely batty!

She was thankful for the long sleeves of her robes because the moment she had woken up that morning a nerve induced rash had made its way all the way up them and she was having a hard time not scratching. Thank goodness she had to carry a box of cookies in her hands. It offered a distraction.

"Good day, Professor Vindictus," Kurumi greeting, trying to make it sound cheerful and excited when all she felt right now was the desire to run back to her room and hide under the bed from Selina. "Here are the usual, but I added extra chocolate this time." And she handed over the box of cookies.

Just no one mention her singing up for Quidditch? Okay? Thanks. Itch itch itch itch.

She then went and stood beside Selina. "I hope you're happy," she grumbled under her breath.


They may have been few students to start with but it didn't seem to be staying that way for long as more and more of his fellow students and even classmates showed up. Nudge...Gideon felt what seemed like an elbow being nudged into him. He had just about reconized Genevieve's voice as she spoke a greeting and turned to look at her when the Ravenclaw nudged him again. "Aye...ye nudged?"

And then Gideon spotted first Selina and then another lion friend of his. The redhead he fully expected seeing as she lived for flying and was quidditch captain after all. Kurumi not so much. Sure he had seen her in flying class once or twice since he had met her but she had never seemed very comfortable especially in comparison to the other lessons. And he had simply figured she might drop it her final year.

Selina must have dragged her bestie along.

"Hey guys," Gideon greeted, offering what he hoped was an encouraging smile to his fellow prefect.
