Minerva glanced from the match to Jory, “Only two years? Well your good, I would have expected longer, but I guess my first few terms I didn’t see you play.” She at least thought she would have remembered if he did play her first few terms. He had been her friend since her first term.
Nodding Minerva couldn’t agree more, “West is a tough cookie. I’ve watched him play before, he’s good at pretty much both sports and by the sounds of it, a good announcer as well. Guess he’s just one of those people that don’t have to work too hard at being good at things.” She shrugged, some people just had talent and it seemed like this younger snake was one of them. Glancing from the match to Jory she smiled, “Oh thanks, I’m excited to play, but we have so much talent on that team.” She did still worry about being a little rusty. “Trainings going well. The beaters this term are all great. I so much fun playing. Have you ever played?” She knew he didn’t for the team, but maybe just for fun.
Looking back at the match she cheered as Bee beat her own boyfriend. Chuckling a bit she knew how it felt to be going against a boyfriend in a different house. She felt her stomach flip thinking about when they would have to play quidditch against the claws. Her thoughts were distracted as she heard Jory asking about the Goblin, “I don’t know.. Healer Tillstorm kicked me out right away.” She shuddered at the thought of the way she kicked her out of the office. “Oh a portrait. Why would they want a portrait? It’s just so odd that they come in and do this.” She was feeling a bit frustrated with everything going on this term. She was tired of not understand the situation and frustrated that it seemed no adult wanted to give real answers.
“Oh no.. no I wasn’t sick or anything. I had set up a meeting with Healer Tillstorm to talk about my future. I am planning on becoming a healer, so I wanted to make sure I was on the right path with grades, and get a head start on thinking of universities and stuff like that.” She had not really been to the healer for anything else. All the rumors kept her away at least, but up until she threatened her with detention Minerva was actually starting to have a different opinion of Tillstorm so maybe she wasn’t as bad as people thought.
