Obviously, Ollie knew that was a terrible place to practice flying, especially when she was so bad at it but, she couldn't think of anywhere else to go! So with broom in hand, she slipped out the castle and made her way to the whomping willow.
Dahlia was all for practicing and getting a head of the game or at least catching up to where she should be. There was goals in place for this term. Well not only this term, last term as well but that hadn't gone as planned. It had been an epic failure and she was behind in everything because of it. Not that any of it was her fault. None of it was and she knew that but that was besides that point. All that mattered now was that she was doing all that she could to get herself where she should be, to be where a second year was meant to be in there wand work.
So after helping out in the barns like she always did, Lia took a detour towards the Whomping Willow figuring she could get a bit of practice in before heading back inside. Normally there was never anyone else there but her so it was a safe spot for her to practice without any distractions or fear of accidentally harming anyone. As she got closer though it looked like she wasn't going to be alone after all.
"Ollie, hi!" she called out in greeting with a warm smile and a wave.
"What's with the broom?" Was she headed to the pitch to do some flying?
