"Yeahhhhhh." He nodded a bit. "Look.... I might've set up a casual obstacle course in the Room of Requirement. Its not the best but... its the best we've got, y'know? At this point, what else can they do to us?" And they had to get Theo ready for tryouts too yeah? West would obviously go all in and help him out. As always.
"Zahra? Yeah. The Dead Kneazles have fans in high places apparently." Grin. Hopefully THAT would be a trend that would continue, yes? West was all for building a fan base... though it was easier on him if Ascanius and Nigel got all the clingy attention instead of him.... though he knew that wasn't likely to be the case. He sure didn't resent their share though.
"Me too. I'm... without Quidditch," And without Alice, "This place feels... like I don't belong anymore." And now that he was at this weird point of not learning new things in classes... yeah it was weird. West couldn't really decide if he wished he was eleven all over again, or if he wished they were done with it all already. Obviously the second was the only actual option though.
"Ready to run then?" No time like the present to get started.
"
Thanks, man." Leave it to West to make Theo feel better. He often did. Theo's attention was definitely caught when he mentioned setting something up in the Room of Requirement. Why hadn't they thought of that sooner? "
What?! You did? That's great, anything's better than nothing!" Theo even did a little bounce. "
Let me know when you go down next!"
Wow, impressive, but Theo just nodded all intrigued instead of commenting. He wasn't jealous of West's opportunities or anything. NOpe, not at all.
Yes, this. "
I know what you mean." Almost exactly what he meant. "
Maybe we've just outgrown this place." It was something that he had started feeling since last term, and he had hoped that his new badge would help but it hadn't. Ungrateful, he was, I know. "
Oh well, got all the Quidditch we want soon." Hopefully.
Uhhhhh, "
We should warm up first. Or, I should." Since he was feeling pretty sluggish today. And ever other day, but particularly today. It was EFFORT to walk further than just for classes.
