Isla shrugged. "I doubt my parents would go for it, seeing as I've never had any formal Quidditch training," she replied. Come to think if it, though, he did have a point. If she didn't have her own broom, how was she ever going to get any better? "You're probably right, though. It's the best way to get better." That's be just what she told her parents when she got home. She hadn't asked them about her own broom in about a year, so who knew what they'd say now.

Isla perked up. "I do go to Hogwarts! I'm a second year now," she said, her enthusiasm showing in her tone of voice. "I've never seen you there. Are you going to be a first year?" Either that, or he was a transfer. He looked like a first year, though. "That's what I want to do...play for fun. Well, for now, at least." If she got good enough and wanted to play for a team, then so be it.

She shifted her weight from one foot to the other and thought about his questions. "Definitely not the seeker. I don't want all that pressure on me," she started. "I'm think maybe keeper or beater. Maybe chaser." In other words, she really didn't have a clue. Just not seeker. That was something she was sure of!

It sounded like the easiest and most obvious solution. Unless she wasn't allowed to have one. Not every family could afford them or wanted their kids having their own brooms. Lukas looked at the book she held up. "Best place to start would be learning to fly. That's of course if you don't already know how to." Can't play Quidditch if you can't fly. Lukas appeared thoughtful for a minute. "I'm not the best at Quidditch but I do know the rules. If you're going to Hogwarts too.. maybe I can help you go over the rules or something sometime." That's how he learned. His older siblings and father taught him the rules and practiced with him out in the backyard of their home. It was hard to have a specific position consistently when you had siblings that always wanted to do everything he did. "Not really. I only play for fun so I'm not fussy about what position I'm playing." He did tend to favor seeker a fair bit more than other positions though. And chaser. He was a fairly good chaser. "Do you know what position you want to play?" Isla shrugged. "I doubt my parents would go for it, seeing as I've never had any formal Quidditch training," she replied.
