Hmmm, she would leave that for the moment. No need for Ethan to think that she had been mean to the first year. She wouldn't be mean, but she did like to have fun. Plus she turned the head back to the correct color. Blushing a bit, "Well yes, I guess I did, but like I said it's a fun muggle game that I played all the time with my parents. We had a mini golf course not far from us. I think the whole in one might have been just a lucky shot that day." She didn't think she was fantastic at the game, but chuckled at his statement. "Sure..sure.. I will just go medium on you.. how about that. Not to rough, but not to easy." She winked and laughed. "I think this will be fun though. I can't wait to say something to Laura."
Smiling as she thought about the last time at the three broomsticks, she decided that she might have to thank Elliot one day for making her go over and do that. She would have probably not been so upfront if it wasn't for her pushing buttons. Now seeing how well everything had worked out, Minerva didn't want to admit, but she was glad Elliot was there that day. "I do hope I get to actually be there without surprising you and Mick this time." Cue.. giggles..
Speeding forward Minerva looked back and saw Ethan was catching up easy to her. He was great on his broom, it was a shame he said he wasn't going out for the claw team at all, but then she thought about it. No it was better that way, her puff team didn't need anymore great players on other teams, he would be safer in the stands with her. Yeah she was fine with him staying off the team. Leaning she turned quickly to face him coming towards her. "Well the scenery looks great from right here." Laughing she watched him come closer then looked around, he was right it was nice from up here, she never took the time to look out at the castle.
A slow grin started to appear on Ethan's face. Was she blushing? He wasn't sure what he had said to bring about that response, but he thought it was cute. He nodded as she explained.. yes, he thought it must have been a Muggle game, but he found it quite interesting.
"It seems to be trickier than it looks," he mused aloud, then chuckled at her words.
"Okay, I think medium sounds fair.. I wonder if either of them have played it before. I'll mention it to Mick.." Yes, he thought that sounded like a very good idea.. there seemed to be a shortage of things to do that wasn't always the same here and that was still novel to him.
And then he laughed at her words and giggles. Minerva was obviously thinking the same thing he was when they talked about Hogsmeade. That seemed forever ago now.. so much had happened since then.
"I do like surprises though," he said with the hint of a smirk.
The girl was fast on her broom. He figured she would be, playing Quidditch and all.. but he was quickly catching up to her. But the sudden sight of her now headed towards him, caused him to slow just a little. Chuckling a little, Ethan flew straight at her, veering to the right before running into her, then he circled around her to fly right next to her.
"See, I knew you were a good flier," he grinned from beside her.
"I've missed flying just for fun.. it's been a little while." When he played Quidditch he was flying all the time.. but it wasn't as fun somehow while concentrating on the game. This was far more relaxing.. which he definitely needed after a day of studying.
