He scored? "Really? Scany scored and I didn't get to see?" She would beat herself up for missing it later, but right now, staring still took precedence. "I bet he will again, and then we can both see and cheer real loudly and obnoxiously for him." And if other people scored, she could just keep looking and cheer mentally or something. Did that make sense? She thought it made sense.

Also, watching from the stands gave her a much better view than in the common room with omnioculars. Alice was making mental notes to come back later.

Awkward times. Probably in more ways than one. Penelope nodded, eyes not leaving the pitch. "Yeah, lots of scheduling conflicts, I'm sure." Which, y'know, maybe there was, on top of other reasons. She'd never been captain herself, so for all she knew scheduling tryouts around everyone else might be pretty difficult, and Alice had other things to do on top of that. Like maybe homework or something. So...lots could conflict with her ability to watch Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff tryouts.

"Don't feel too bad. I missed the first tryout he went to." For...reasons. Angry ones that had caused her not to sleep at all that night until she'd finally sorta dozed off later on around the time the tryout started. But all that was behind them now, thankfully. Now was the time to focus on cheering once he scored again, as Alice suggested. "Maybe we could try out that Sonorus spell thing. The one that makes your voice louder?" Then they could be REALLY obnoxious about the cheering. Heh.
