I really appreciate it, honestly. Just...be advised that one or both of us may need to visit the new Healer by the end...and probably best if we avoid switching spells."
Just...putting that disclaimer out there.
"I signed up," she nodded, tone a bit defeated but optimistic. "We'll...see how it goes?" Bringing up Thornton just reminded her of that term - a lot of memories she would rather not revisit having finally accepted things. "He won't be joining this term, he told me himself," she informed him. "You'd...have to ask him personally for a rematch." Of which she wasn't even sure the Ravenclaw would be willing to take the prefect up on.
Hugo watched Paige getting kind of nervous, but why? It was not like the duel was happening right now and he wasn't the best dueler in Hogwarts...
OR MAYBE HE WAS. EHEM. Visit the Healer? He laughed, "
Why? You aren't going to hex me on purpose, right?" OR WAS SHE? You know, people who are nice most of the time have a dark side. Better watch out for the Hufflepuffs.
Ohh she did signed up. That was great. He smiled and nodded, "
You'll do fine" said like it was no big deal. Though he was disappointed on the next thing she said. Thornton wasn't going to participate on the dueling club??? He frowned, "
Shame" really "
And I will" oh believe me he was going to ask for the rematch.
"
So...you ready to practice?" he took his wand out and grinned.
