If he had never even been in a quidditch shop his amazing skills were just genetic maybe. He was going to be amazing through the years here. She kind of wish she would be around longer to see it, but she could come back and watch. Plus she had all next term...

"You hadn't been in a quidditch shop.. Well we are going to meet and go, alright?" She then got a bigger smile on her face. "When is your birthday Toby?" A thought crossed her mind, "When we go to the quidditch shop I'm buying you a birthday present there." She loved Birthdays.. So of course she would want to buy one of her newest little badger a present.


"I'm glad your knee is better... Those bludgers can be super dangerous." She would know that was for sure. Smiling as he said the flying was a good idea, Minerva leaned and headed down the pitch a bit. "ALL RIGHT.. ON THREE WE FLY TOWARDS EACH OTHER. JUST REMEMBER TO GO LEFT." She yelled from the other side of the pitch. Was he ready? She hoped he was and she hoped the eleven year old would know his left from his right by now.

"1...2...3" Minerva leaned to zoom quickly towards the other side of the pitch and towards Toby. She was at least experienced enough that if she felt he wasn't going to lean the way he was suppose to she could go above or below him quickly. As he got closer she waited until the last possible minute and moved right keeping out of his way.


Tobias didn't know what Minerva was saying 'wow' at, but he just left it and smiled at her. He vaguely considered explaining a little bit more about the whole flying and magic situation at home, but he'd been instructed not to go into it that much if he could help it, because apparently you never knew how people would react. Though Toby thought that EVERYONE so far was awesome and wouldn't care, but still.

"No, my grandfather wouldn't let me when I went to get my school stuff. He said we could only go in the shops for the things on the list, and afterwards he said it was because he knew I'd want a broom." And then he wouldn't be able to fly it anywhere OR bring it to Hogwarts and would be left until the start of his second year... so that was fair enough. "My birthday is at the end of September, but my family are giving me my presents in advance." Because he liked being with his family to celebrate.

At Minerva's offer he kind of looked a bit surprised and stammered slightly. "Oh... oh n-no, you... you don't ha-" But Minnie was already getting into position and suddenly all Tobias' was thinking about was flying. Right here. Right now.

Just remember to go left. Right. No, left. Left, right? Right. LEFT.

Toby was still getting confused as Minerva counted town, and he'd not yet worked it out by the time she counted down. Yet he still accelerated immediately like a cork from a bottle. He watched her as they both sped towards each other, analysing her body language in a way that he was never able to do when on the ground. She was leaning towards his right, so as soon as it was time Tobias SWERVED to the left and away from Minnie, circling round and heading back to the middle of the pitch.

That was EXHILERATING.

"SWEET."
