"It'll be nice," the Slytherin agreed, though being "the top" of the school felt far less important to her now. Sixth year was just fine. They were close enough to the top to have all of the benefits, and far enough away from any drastic life changes. Why couldn't everything just stay the same!?
Nina looked down to the book she was holding, closing it up and setting it beside her now as it was rather evident that she wouldn't have a chance to get any reading done. "No," she shook her head. She wasn't exactly disappointed, though it did get lonely. She wasn't sure whether she'd prefer to have siblings, but there was a part of her that was slightly jealous of Chloe's large family. "It's nice that you'll still have your younger brother here with you." She didn't realize there were two others in addition, but it also wasn't surprising. It was very evident in her mannerisms that she was a sister. Nina could have guessed it from kilometers away.
"You must," the whole country was beautiful, but Nina was strongly biased in favor of Alicante. They had the best beaches. Something else that did not surprise Nina was Chloe's plans to play quidditch. She was very well aware of the fact that the Ravenclaw took pride in the sport. Coincidentally, Nina didn't have much of an opinion about quidditch. She did attend the games in her first couple of years, sporting Józef's jersey and cheering him on. But her only real fondness of the game resulted from watching the cute boys play. So. She took no issue with the fact that it was put on hold. "That's nice. Do you know which department you'll be interning in?" Hopefully not whatever their equivalent of Mysteries was because Nina would not recommend that to ANYONE.
"I don't think I'll be ready for NEWTS though, even if we can get an early start to them." She did not want to feel stressed already for NEWTS, but she couldn't help but think of them.
"Oh, well, maybe when we come back next term the pitch will be back to normal and we can have some fun thinking about that instead of just school work." Though, Chloe was part of other clubs as well. She did enjoy those as well, even tried for the school paper this term.
The short no Nina gave did make Chloe give her friend a once over, she wasn't sure how she'd feel if she was an only child. Not being one it was hard to think about a life without her siblings, maybe having a new one wouldn't be so horrible.
"I bet it's nice not having to share everything with siblings. My youngest brother is at the stage he comes and destroys things." She did nod about it being nice,
"Yeah, I'm glad Morgan is still there." They were close, not as close as her and Gunnar, but still pretty close.
"Well my dad works in the Environmental Department, so I'd like to just intern there. I love herbology and it would be fun to work in the same area as him for the summer."
