"Yes,'' Jory agreed. "The commentary was really good. You know, he was funny and all.'' Pause "Wish I was like that. I've got to spend tons of time studying if I want to do well.'' And that caused him to get pretty frustrated sometimes- spending time with all those book and trying to understand complicated spells and potions and whatever else.
"Good to hear,'' Jory said. Hufflepuff had the best Quidditch team. "So, looking forward to the first match? And nope, I've never played.'' He didn't think he'd be really good at the game.
"I've really got no idea,'' he said looking at Min. "Its so weird, isn't it? I mean a portrait of all things.'' Jory wondered what else the goblins were taking from the Castle. They certainly were not helping the situation.
A healer? How cool! "That's great! A healer is a good choice,'' he said nodding. "I'll come straight to you whenever I'm sick.'' He laughed.
“ Oh well I’m glad you finally took an interest in it.” Minerva smiled at him, she knew why she had taken an interest in the sport,
“I actually stumbled on the match one day, because I was a little lost first term. Glad I did though, because I enjoy playing.”
Minerva let her eyes leave the match and really looked at Jory,
“Jory why don’t you do the announcing for quidditch? I could help you figure out some wording and stuff, it’s really fun. I would do it again if I wasn’t playing. I don’t see West doing it either since he plays.” That would be a great way for him to have a memorable seventh term. It really could be fun for him. Then she laughed,
“Oh Jory, your super smart, give yourself more credit.” She understood studying a lot though, she was always doing studying and extra studying when she could.
Minerva turned her eyes back at the match
“COME ON CLAWS!!” Then she shrugged,
“Maybe it wasn’t the portrait, maybe it was the frame he was after, but if that was the case I wish they would have just left the portrait, the poor thing is probably freaked out being moved in that way. “ She started thinking about it,
“I just don’t understand anything that’s going on this term, I wish we had more answers.”
Minerva blushed,
“Well thanks, I’m glad I have at least two people that wouldn’t be afraid of me being their healer.” She knew Ethan would be the second smiling at the thought.
“I think it’s going to be hard work, I have to get my charms up, that A just won’t do for N.E.W.Ts next term. “ She was more determined then ever to do great on them.
