He had lost most of his faith in the adults of the school when he was sure the would figure things out.. and just hadn't. The boy smiled a little at Minerva's words and looked down at the ground. "I'm not that great.. especially at spells." Sure, he knew he was good at Herbology and Potions.. but wandwork was a different story. There were a few spells he had gotten good at.. with a ton of practice.. but even he would question why he got sorted into Ravenclaw. Looking back up, he smiled at her offer. "Maybe you can meet me at the library tomorrow after class.. if you're not busy?" Yeah, he probably should get started on that class's studying right away.

The boy smiled to himself as he thought about her words. Ethan was sure he'd never want to spend another night on the ground after this whole ordeal was over.. but the thought of visiting her over the summer with her family seemed to make that worth it. "I think that might be fun," he nodded, then his smile grew. The ceiling would be nice to look at together.. that reminded him of their first date, looking at the stars. He chuckled thinking about Mick and Laura.. those two were so funny. "We should all do something together." That would be loads of fun.

"You do?" Ethan's eyes widened slightly. Muggle candy intrigued him.. especially the chocolate kind. "I'd like to try all of them then..." Hopefully the lockout would be resolved before end of term.. ugh. Then he chuckled a bit. "You sound like me.. I've been stocking up on chocolate frogs every time we went to Hogsmeade, so I would have enough till the next time." And now he had none because of the lockout. Hopefully they could go to Hogsmeade again soon.

Ethan gave her an amused smile. "Oh come on.. I'm sure you were a great player. You wouldn't have made the team if you weren't..." He laughed as she talked of her bat. Oh Merlin, he would've paid galleons to have seen that. Then he stopped and frowned a little as she mentioned the bludgers. "Yeah.. I've been hit with bludgers before too.. Not fun." And he was thankful for that subject to have been changed even though it wasn't any more cheerful. He watched Minnie curiously as she tried explaining her family.. and he didn't really understand. Why anyone would want a witch to become a Muggle, he didn't know. The boy got onto his broom and leaned in really close. "Well.. I'm glad you came back," he said, then pulled back and took off into the air, glancing behind him to see if she would follow.
Minerva saw his hesitation about his spells and she shook her head. "Don't underestimate yourself. That is the worse thing you can do. You are good and of course I will come to the library to practice. My favorite place is by the stain glass windows, right under the dragon. It's the best place for studying." She blushed a bit admitting that. It was her favorite place since first year she had spent many hours in that spot over the last four terms.

Minerva smiled at his facial expressions about camping and she gave a nice smile, "Well you remember the lake.. the stars, now think about that on a mountain with a nice fire, cuddle up." Yes, that might help him not mind the camping part thinking about looking at the stars. Then she laughed, "Oh I think that is a great idea. I will say something to Laura and see what they might want to do. I know there is that Minnie Golf on the grounds. Maybe the four of us could play that one day." Yes that would be fun and she hoped it wouldn't be to dangerous, Laura with a golf club, but she will be happy, so it should be just fun.

"Well if I don't get any from my trunk by the end of term then I will send you some over summer. A little care package.I will have to figure out an owl since I really don't have one. I've been kind of wanting to see if I could take Midnight as my own. I have had a special owl here at school since the first year." She shrugged communication became a little difficult at her grandparents, but she would figure it out. "Another weekend at Hogsmeade would be nice for a few reasons. One is the chocolate frogs, another would be doing something out of the castle with you." She smiled and looked into his green eyes.

Minerva shook her head and laughed, "I guess you'll find out.." She then shook her head, "There horrible things aren't they? But I so enjoyed being a beater. It was exciting having that stupid ball come at you and trying to bat it away." She smiled remembering how much she liked playing for the team. Maybe she would go back out next term, but she did like announcing as well. Then she looked at him and smiled "I'm really glad I came back too.." She looked at the ground a blushed a bit, and as she went to look back at Ethan he was gone. Oh he thought he was funny did he.. She giggled and took off on her broom flying fast to catch up to him.
