Like a human pinball but with the ability to deflect things. "I think it kinda worked, but sometimes I get distracted and end up watching the game."

Though... the same thing could potentially happen when Seeking. Hm. Ah well, that wasn't the point right now. Tobias still needed to ensure he GOT on the team, y'know?

At the suggestion of trying out the Beater position together, Tobias' grin got a little wider and his eyes shone in something akin to wonder. An older student, not even in his house, was offering to fly with him? AND practice Beater...ing... whatever. WOW. Awesome. "I'd totally love that! Even just using like... a quaffle. Or tennis balls!" He was eager.

Hm, that was...an interesting way of looking at playing Keeper, actually. She'd always kinda remembered it as not a lot of movement and flying, but there WAS quite a bit of moving involved actually, even if it wasn't the same as flying around the pitch. "That was probably a good thought on her part." 'Cause he'd been a good Keeper. And maybe that was why she hadn't been all that great back in her first year. Not that it mattered now since she was sticking with Seeker. Though watching the game when the quaffle was at the other end of the pitch was also a good thing about being Keeper...long as you didn't get distracted, of course. Heh.

Penelope grinned a little more when he seemed to like the idea of trying the Beater position out. And he had great ideas to use in place of the bludger. "Yeah, either of those would be good! 'Specially the tennis balls." She wasn't sure whether they'd actually be allowed to smack a quaffle around with bats, and tennis balls might be fun to try to catch. Get some Seeker practice in too maybe?

But then she heard her stomach rumble and she was reminded why she'd come down here. And she noticed again the broom he was carrying and remembered he'd been off to go fly on it. He probably wanted to get back to that, yeah? "Anyway, I should probably get some food. And you wanna go try out that new broom, yeah?"
