She laughed a little. "Yeah," Remy was careful not to insult the Hufflepuff, of course. "I hung out with her on the train and I think she was... excited." That was one word for it. GIGGLE.

"Ohhhhh." Remy wanted to hit herself on the head because that made perfect sense. She THOUGHT she'd have to use fancy spells in order to activate and play the table. But all it took was a simple flick of the wand. Simples. "I kinda know about it. You gotta catch the golden snitch, right? And watch out for those bludgers!" She wasn't overly into watching the sport, but she had basic knowledge. "I went to see a game once, when I was real small, but I had NO idea what was going on." Remy shrugged with a soft smile.

"I'm ready." Since it looked like Noah was about to drop one of the balls. It didn't look like a snitch but she'd still try to catch it with her player.
"The thing is, I want to. It's high time I got a break from all the studying, actually." Studying wasn't exactly synonymous with Noah, but there has been a need. Fifth year wasn't exactly a walk in the park academically, and he's currently got a self-imposed pressure to scrape a decent amount of OWL scores just so he can keep his parents at ease. For sure, there'd be no trouble with his twin Catherine-- she was Hermione Granger incarnate.

Noah chuckled and shook his head, almost apologetically, at Remy. "She's really excitable and playful most of the time. If you wanted a bit of adventure around Hogwarts, I'm sure Scar would be able to deliver." she could be a bit hard to understand and keep up with, but Scarlett just wants to be involved in most things. "You must've met her in the train going here. I hope she shared her food with you guys," from what he'd seen, it looked like she bought half of the trolley's contents.

Ooh, now they're talking! "That's right. The Golden Snitch is what you want for your team, as it's worth the most points. It also ends the game." Noah nodded along as Remy spoke, and added a few more details into it, "Yes, the Beaters' bludgers are there to hamper your Chasers from passing this ball towards the goal. This is the quaffle. This one's worth 10 points every time it gets through one of the opponent's hoops. But you've got your own Keeper to block the quaffle, preventing the opposing team from scoring." hopefully the mini-crash course in Quidditch made sense to the little Gryffindor, so she could make sense of the actual game next time.

Remy wasn't totally clueless, so it was safe to say that she'd be able to move the pieces around as it should. "Alright, here we go. 3...2...1," And the quaffle was dropped, keeping his eyes on the quaffle, as the mini-bludgers came to life as well, ready to be whacked by the beaters.
