So walnuts from the kitchen would have to do. Besides, it didn't matter if they lost a few walnuts, but it did matter to her if she lost an actual snitch.
Once she had her jacket pockets full enough of walnuts, she came back up to the entrance hall and found West was already there. Awesome.
"Hey," she said with a smile as she reached him. "You ready?" "Hi!" West beamed at Penelope and stood up straighter. Yusssssssss! She came!
.... not that he'd thought she wouldn't. And not that he was all that excited or anytthingggggg. *casual expression* Well he was excited. Because it wasd Quidditch stuff and because he was always excited when he saw his friends of which Loppy WAS one, and also because he was hungry and was gonna get some food any moment so really, there were HEAPS of reasons to be excited.
"I'm ready. I got a back pack so we can put food in it. And I stuck a blanket in there so we don't have to sit on the grass too." Yea!
"Unless, you know, you want to eat and fly at the same time." Something that he could do. West Odessa HAD been known to snack on Chocolate frogs while in the air.
But yeah! He was ready. He was ready an-- oh. Bestie. Bestie. Bestie there. There with Ella. West did a 'sup' !man!nod at Theo and his eyes flickered to Ella's hair.
... and then to Penelope's, and he'd noticed the braid. The braid was nice. He liked it when her hair was all flowy though.
His fingers sorta twitched? Cos like, wouldn't a comparison be interesting? Double stroke.
His face felt hot.
Coughcough.
.... wait, was he getting sick again? The thirteen year old sorta shook himself and looked at Penelope again.
"So shall we go in there and get some food then?"
He was fine! Really!
