In her head the scene was pretty funny, she could even see a nice bull's eye on his forward....ooooo...or an X. That was supposed to mark the spot, yes? "I know I didn't hit anything." She stated, rather matter-of-factly. "Apparently if I were to really hit it I'd be breaking some rules--and what do you mean by that." Referring to his little comment about girls. She began running her hand along the putter, one wrong answer and she was going to change the rules of the game known as mini golf to something a bit more...hands on...

She watched his ball travel closer to the hole than hers had gotten. Figures. People like him weren't use to using force so they could cope without it, while she was absolutely pathetic at this being gentle thing.

Ahhh, not the sportsy kind...weird...she thought most boys were into that stuff. She thought to question it but realized the way she would have phrased the question would have made her come across as being rude--which was the farthest thing from what she was trying to be so she dropped it. "Yeah same here. I saw the nice putter and the wide open space and thought it'd be a lot of fun." Of course she clearly misinterpreted the signs because this wasn't the place for her kind of fun.

Hm..second year Slytherin...hearing that made her find it hard to believe that they hadn't started arguing by now. With the exception of Seri, Lex didn't get along well with the snakes at all! "So you're a snake...pretty decent one too." She mused. "I'm a first year Gryffie." Was that going to be a problem? Hmmmmm?

Wait.. What?

The boy blinked at her. She clearly wasn't impressed by him and his smile turned into one of a confused frown. He didn't mean to offend, that really wasn't in his nature. "Only if you hit it really hard and break the greenhouse glass" he nodded. "So that was actually a good hit." Better than some people probably did on their first try, heck he betted some people would completely miss and fall flat on their faces. He knew the girl comment had offended, Terry truly had nothing against girls, in fact most if not all of his friends were female. "I was joking. I reckon loads of girls could beat me at a game like this." And he wasn't afraid to admit it. Some girls had amazing aim and used their brains to work out angles and stuff, he just hit it and hoped that it would go near or into the hole.

Luckily for him, his strategy worked. His hit wasn't perfect, there was no doubt about that but it was good for a first try, at least he thought so. Maybe he should have a go at proper golf with his Uncle when he got home, he might find he was good at him.

Terry didn't really know why sport wasn't his thing. He loved the outdoors, wide open spaces. He loved the smell of the countryside and running across fields to get to his destination but sports, especially those of the muggle variety, just didn't interest him at all. "It's not all wide spaces though" he glanced around at the obstacles that were dotted around the course. "The windmill looked coolest to me." It looked difficult though, with the blades spinning round and round and having to get the ball through the middle without hitting one of them. It was a challenge he was going to accept.

Judging by her comment, Lex wasn't keen on the Slytherins, something that completely baffled the twelve year old. He wasn't judgemental, he didn't care what houses people were in, as long as they were nice. "Thanks" he chuckled at her statement. He thought himself to be 'decent,' he was polite and friendly. "It was my sister who wanted me to be a Snake, I didn't mind which house I would be in." They all had something special about them. "Cool!" he grinned. He hadn't met many Gryffindors yet, they were mainly Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws.
