"Well, don't let our presence stop you from doing so," he said with a small wave towards the Hufflepuff. In fact, the young man could spare cheering a bit louder. "School spirit and comradery are rare things these days."
Attention back to the match at hand, the astronomer beamed and puffed his chest out a bit more at the lion's stellar performance. "Yes, Mr. Zeke is making quite the name for himself in his first year. I just hope that he doesn't supernova prematurely with his rigorous work ethic." Which should be a reminder to himself not to push the young man too hard too fast. He also was not used to speaking with his colleagues in such a casual form in regards to students. He expected to be referred to as professor, so showing them the same sort of respect and tacking on Miss or Mr when referring to him was just second nature. "Miss Wright is also quite the natural gobstones player as well." As was Miss Brown who had put up a stellar toss against Mr. Atreyu.
"I had to participate in student activities as a student," he said with a small shrug. Part of the whole reintegrating him into the school after the brief suspension. "So gobstones was one of those I delved into. It's...pretty self explanatory," he said with a grand gesture towards the arena. "They play the Jack Stone variation of the game here at Hogwarts. You and your opponent have four snaps to try and get your stone closest to the Jack Stone there in the middle. Closest stone gets the point and the loser gets covered in smelly goo. Winning team is the one that scored the most points...and usually the ones covered in less goo."
