He didn't share these thoughts with her though. No, he was going to be very supportive. Study = good. Cutting class to practice quidditch = Bad. Mmmhm. "Then you're almost done!" Done = Freedom. Yup.
Three years was nothing, three years always felt like three weeks. Tops.

Yes, yes, the quidditch material. "You must definitely should, Miss Diggory." He nodded, determined. "You can always catch up on other classes once the snow gets here." It was just nicer to fly in the fall than in the winter. At least, others seemed to think so. And really, flying should be a priority for everyone.

"Too violent?" Haraldur smiled, amused. Anyone was violent with a bat though. "But seeker is a great way to learn control and patience. Maybe practicing as a seeker will help control your... Violent beater-problem."

Almost done? How did being halfway done with school equate to being almost done? Skylar liked the older man, but somehow failed to see his logic here. Nonetheless, she gave him a polite smile. "Yes, sir... Almost done." Except not, but she would just agree with him, because he was older and it seemed wrong to disagree with someone who was like your grandparent's age. She still had OWL and NEWT studies to get through, which were fairly big years and she didn't plan to slack off for those exams.

Wait, did he just encourage her to skive off of homework until the snow got here? She couldn't be sure, but she was FAIRLY sure that is what he'd been implying. She was also sure he hadn't been filled in on who was a good student versus not, which is why Skylar said next what she did. "I can keep up with my studies and practice quidditch just fine." She was well-rounded and good in the academic department like that; got that from her mother's side, no doubt.

She smiled when he seemed amused by her revelation in being too violent of a beater. "That's what I'm talking about. But I mean, I guess sending your brother to St Mungos is probably a good enough reason to switch positions ... at least temporarily." She mused, thoughtfully, glancing down at her knees and then raised her gaze to meet his again.

Rising up from where she'd been seated, she gave a little awkward curtsy. "Anyway, I should be going now. Thank you for the water, and I guess... I'll see you around?" She assumed so, given how much time she spent practicing her flying.
