She sped over to where the ball had stopped. It was her turn again. REDEMPTION time, aw yeah. Not waiting for Brooklyn to ask, she unzipped the ball in one swift motion, grinning at the sound it made. "Good one!" Norah turned right back around again and sped to the front of the lane. Waiting for your turn was a lot harder than it should've been. She still wasn't very good at the patience thing. Patience was boring though, so she wasn't too torn up about that. It was going to be a STRIKE this time, she could feeeeel it. Or maybe she was just hungry. Or BOTH.

It was getting kind of war sitting there surrounded by the ball. But Brooklyn couldn’t quite reach the start of the zipper, so she’d had to wait. At least she had the ability to be proud that she’d nearly gotten a strike. Nearly, not quite. But she’d bettered their score, so it counted. She hadn’t even noticed Norah’s reaction to her score, or how fast the prefect had sped down to her waiting in the ball. She hadn’t noticed until the zipper was opened swiftly, letting a rush of cooler air in and spilling her out rather uninvitedly. At least she was out, but she sat on the ground for a second or two, smiling to herself.

Looking up, she realized Norah was already back at the beginning of their lane, so she’d stood up and brushed her clothes off before pushing the ball back to her partner, who was obviously ready for another go. What with the fact she was practically bouncing. Brooklyn tilted her head slightly, shifting the ball slightly so the opening was near the Hufflepuff. “Ready?,” she asked. She’d shown how to control the ball now, so that meant there wasn’t any excuse for a second fail. It meant that the only acceptable thing would be a strike.
