"Really?" she bubbled, her eyes sparking. Always? "Forever's a long time.... but thank you." Stepping properly away from her psuedo-mother, Elise bit her lip. She hadn't even told anyone about it yet, and to be honest, she didn't want to. But she would rather tell it herself than have Kurumi find out some other way.
"I... I'mquidditchcaptain." she whispered, unclenching her hand to show the badge that sat in it. That was all, but she wanted her to be the first person she told who wasn't actually related to her. Merlin knew how, because Elise was pretty certain that she didn't deserve to lead a team, much less to be able to train them and be an example. It was scary business.
Hmmm. Someone seemed to be a little bit of a downer. She really did mean it. Elise would always be someone she would look out for - even when they were much older and no one really needed any looking out for. So Kurumi just smiled at the Ravenclaw.
Her eyes widened a bit when she took a step back. Hmm? What was this abou ---- "
Wait...what?" Kurumi said, her eyes widening just a bit more when she heard what had come next. "
You're the....YOU'RE THE NEW RAVENCLAW QUIDDITCH CAPTAIN?!" A giant smile spread across her face and she wrapped the girl back up in another hug. About time there was a captain that she liked - Ravenclaw had a terrible track record in the Gryffindor's mind. "
Congratulations! That's great news! I know you will be brilliant."
SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZE!
