Good harmless human who gave it a thing, it wasn't the same as that other thing the Groundskeeper gave to it (THAT thing would've earned the boy a fun ride on one of its branches and the tree would've become his best friend and protector even), but it was acceptable. The Tree let the boy stand feet away from its trunk, didn't it? That was something.

Oakey coughed and spat out the dirt that flew in his face after the Willow slammed one of it's branches to the ground. "Okay fine, you can read it first." Oakey joked at the tree. Hopefully the Willow liked jokes. anyways Oakey best thank the Willow now. He cleared his throat and spoke up. You know in case the Willow was hard of hearing. "Hail to thee, wight of Whomping Willow, I pray to thee give this branch of your body! Into it send thy speed, to it bind the might of the bright runes.
Sowilo, Kenaz and Raidho." Oakey wasn't quite sure what this was going to do, but he needed to cut a piece of the Willow off next. THAT was going to be the difficult part. The Willow seemed to give him permission earlier.

Ella continued to stretch her legs, smiling more and more as she watched her teammates interact. She really loved them lots, even if she'd only just met some of them this term. They were all really great people and she enjoyed spending time with them on and off the pitch. She just really hoped they felt the same.

Oakey's arrival didn't go unnoticed and Ella immediately spotted the gift she gave him, causing her to smile. Her gaze moved up to his face and that's when she saw he was smiling too. BEAM! This was a good sign, yeah? Maybe...things could be better between them from now on? She wanted them to be because it was nearly the end and yeah...yeah.

Wade's comment earned a grin and Ella wiggled her eyebrows. "You never know! I could have them hidden." The blonde nearly always had gummy worms on her. Just saying.

As for how long they'd be running and where, Ella shrugged. "I was thinking we could go for a long run? Unless...you'd rather race?" Grin! Friendly competition was always fun.

The blonde then stood up and started to stretch her arms, wondering if anyone else would be joining them.

"Do you guys want to start and the others can just join us when they come?"

They were the only ones dumb enough to be up and out here this early... and near that Willow tree.

Coming up to them, he stopped. "Hi, y'all." he said in greeting, taking a swig of water out of his canteen. "This isn't the quidditch pitch."

This may be a good healing exercise for him and Ella too, not just a team building exercise. You know unless she decided that they'd all have Ice Cream after jogging and gain all the calories they would lose.

Oakey started to stretch while everyone waited. Touching his toes, stretching out his back. Maybe he could get Renesmee to successfully walk on his back. Then Kaiden came "Good of you to join us. You didn't get the memo?" Seriously didn't Ella tell the WHOLE team to meet at the Whomping Willow.
