She didn't miss the confusion that flashed across the Astronomy professor's face. It would take people some getting used to that the sisters were identical. A smirk played across the young lions lips as she listened to his explanation about how brains WERE indeed part of the game. "What he said." Yup, she was totally getting at that. "Of course practice does make perfect." It was true for her when it came to the sports that she played. What was that, that just came flying at them? "Cool!" She inspected the strange substance that made a new home on her robes. This game was getting more interesting by the minute.
A shiver went down her spine all of a sudden and she felt like the temperature dropped ten degrees at least. "Brrrr... I wish I would have worn something warmer."

He reached the viewing area to see a few Professors and a student already there. Hmmph. With Quidditch cancelations, Zander thought more students would show up to watch Gobstones? Maybe it was just because it was so early in the term? Hopefully the game would catch on. Annnnyyyywayyys.
Zander looked around at the other viewieeees. "AH What did I miss?!" He half asked/ half exclaimed in between his breaths. Next time he'd have to set an alarm or something.....

Trying his best to magically clean his suit, he would be bringing this one by the muggle drycleaners this weekened for sure, he took Seren's silence as her understanding that he was correct. Logically speaking, of course. Grinning towards the Herbology professor, he turned his attention to Miss Valentine when she naturally agreed with him. "I hope you practice enough that you choose to participate in the next Gryffindor match," he encouraged the first year. "I am sure that you and your sister would make a fierce pair." Twins had that sort of special link. He was sure it could be a great asset to Gryffindor in these sort of competitions.
Attention back on Seren now, he simply nodded. He needed to go speak to LeoBALD about something anyway so he could just add that to the check list of topics.
"Good day, Mr. Adair," he waved to the young man as he appeared. "Just Gryffindor making quite the comeback thanks to the efforts of Miss Messer!" He puffed out his chest quite a bit as he watched the first year battle it out against the tag team that was Hufflepuff.
And then an icy chill shot down the astronomer's spine and he hugged himself to keep his body warmth from escaping. Merlin, who left the window open? "Wooo, if I wasn't awake already that certainly woke me up," he chuckled. Like splashing cold water on your face.
Blue eyes back on the match now, and still standing and shivering slightly, he clapped loudly as Miss Valentine gave what looked to be a very valiant toss. Quote:

The young lion was caught up in all the excitement and without thinking it through he turned to his Professor and screamed, "AHHH WE'RE IN THE LEAD NOW!" Wow, who knew Gobstones could be this competitive. And interesting. The rest of the student section must be filled next match. This stuff is intense. "GOOOOOOO GRYFFINDOR!" Zander did his best to project his voice. So yes, the young lion was shy all around, but ah competition just brought out his wild side.
This was so much fun.
The match was certainly getting interesting now, between Candice and Angel it was fast swinging in their favour. Demelza served to add some experience to the team, and definitely made an impact on the outcome of the game. Very nice shot. Very nice. Seren applauded as the Lion's gained momentum.
"Angel's picking it up very quickly, did you play the muggle form very often?" she asked Audrey, curious to know if the Lioness had some sort of experience in the sport. Of course she 100% agreed with Airey on that point,
"He's right, you should give it a go, it might be a skill you both share." And if they had it, why not use it?
Her eyes were back on the intense match as Zander appeared in the viewing area with them, she shot him a quick smile and a wave as Airey filled him in. In the end she was too swept up in the sport to really take note of anything that was being said anymore. But one thing she did catch onto, was the fact that they were winning.
"We are!" she exclaimed, clapping her hands together again as Cris and Candice rolled their stones again.
Intense!
"Keep 'em rolling rolling rolling Gryffindor!" ..... just not rolling
too far. Ahem.
