 Catching up/Question 2 :)
Clara had momentarily dozed off for about half a minute. For some reason, her mind wandered and she ended up daydreaming about owning foxes? Not really sure where that came from.
She snapped back to reality and listened as other classmates talked about the whole secrecy statue. Everyone honestly had good inputs. She herself thought that rules were rules, but maybe they didn't always make sense. She understood where the rule was coming from and why it existed, but at the same time, she totally thought that it could be perceived as a little unfair.
Her mind drew a blank at the professor's next question, though. She chuckled nervously as she tried to think about sports. It wasn't really something she did very often. In fact, she tended to avoid anything sports-related.
Clara raised her hand, "Um. I do enjoy sitting in on our Quidditch games. I'm not suited for playing myself, but the watching aspect can be exciting, especially when you're rooting for your House. And as for Muggle sports...I'm familiar with some of the big name teams, like the Chicago Cubs in the United States. My family once went to one of their baseball games while on vacation and they won. Ever since then they stuck in my memory." She reflected on the baseball game briefly, remembering the snacks they ate more than the actual score result. "To be fair, though, if we're talking Muggle sports, I find baseball a bit...bland? Lots of waiting around for things to happen. While nothing's as exciting as a Quidditch match, I personally like to, er, swim in my spare time. It keeps me grounded and the goal-setting aspect really helps me. I tend to gravitate towards solo sports. Team building's important for sure, but there's something to be said about achieving something all by yourself, right?" she added.
Yep. And the fact that she trusted no one. But that was another story for another time.
