"Thanks! I'm totally looking forward to my own broom. I've only really tried the school brooms, so I don't know what other ones are like... it should be fun!" Tobias nodded. He was slightly nervous that another broom might be too fast or sensitive or otherwise different and he wouldn't be able to control it very well, but there would be plenty of time to get used to it on the practice next year, right?
Hmm, next... "Can we practice diving? And then maybe do a bunch of laps flying around the pitch?" When playing as Keeper there wasn't much actual flying around other than maybe circling the hoops, so Tobias liked to have a little while to just... fly.
Really fast.
Maybe.
Minerva chuckled,
"Well they all have different things about them, but I think you will love it. She balanced on her broom. It was so fun to be up in the air. She loved the feeling.. Oh it would be so nice to have her own broom again.
"You will find it faster than these, but I know you can handle it." He was a natural it wouldn't be hard for him at all.
Minerva's smile towards Toby grew as she thought about what they could do. She couldn't help think about Flying classes with Vindy and some of the things that went on in them. There wasn't even one flying class this term, was there? Maybe the sixth year just didn't realize with everything else going on.
"Well I want to fly up further before we start a dive. I don't want you to close to the ground and then not pull up in time." She thought about putting a cushion charm on the ground for him, but figured he would be alright.
[b] "Alright let's head up." Minerva pulled up on her broom and started flying higher in the air. Once she was high enough she leveled out and looked down. Yes she was super high, maybe higher than she needed, but it was fun. So she waited for Toby.
"Alright.. be careful and pull up on the front in time to you don't end up on the ground hurt." Yes Toby do you remember what happens when you hit that ground, because it would be nice to tell Minerva since she had to memory of the time she did.
"Count of three. 1....2......3.. Go Now" Minerva pointed her broom down and headed into the dive.
