Honestly, even if quidditch were to return, it wouldn't really change anything for Nina. As far as she knew Calyx wasn't a superfan either, so she would probably skip the games all together and take advantage of an emptier castle.
"Yeah, it does have its advantages, I guess," whether those outweighed the disadvantages wasn't something Nina could say without properly thinking about it though. She was, however, thankful that she didn't have a younger sibling to destroy her things. That was very reminiscent of Eloise and Céline. The Slytherin gave the girl a small smile as she continued speaking, glad not to do much of it herself.
"Calyx interned in the Department of Environmental Protection last summer." Though she supposed that this was something Chloe likely knew as she was friends with Calyx. He was friends with everyone. "It was the British Ministry, but he absolutely loved it so I'm sure you'll have an incredible time if it works out."
Her eyes shifted towards the compartment door for the first time as she thought about if she would see Ewan before they got back to the station or if maybe he would avoid her this trip, but she couldn't dwell on something she had no control over so her blue eyes moved back to Nina.
"Ah, well, it's not until fall anyway, no point in thinking about it now. Sun and freedom is all that's in front of us." She smiled thinking about her teammates and how excited she was to see them all.
"Do you have cousins or any family that are close like siblings? Both my parents are only children, but my dad's side is pretty big so we have cousins from my grandpa's siblings and they are my age, so they are like siblings too." She was hoping to get to see Regina this summer.
Oh yes, Calyx, that didn't surprise her at all.
"I bet he was great working there. He does so well in the greenhouses. It's actually how we became friends." She enjoyed hanging out with her friend in the greenhouse, he was so smart and even though she knew many things, he still was able to teach her a few more.
"I've always just figured I'd probably get into herbology if I didn't do quidditch, but well.. I guess you know this story." They had talked about her thoughts on counseling when they had gotten into that disagreement, but it wasn't something Chloe wanted to bring back up.
"I hope I'm not keeping you from Calyx." The thought just struck her that maybe she shouldn't be here, maybe Nina wanted to be alone and wait for him.
