Mari nodded as Rapunzel asked her about her team preferences. " Well, my mother likes all of them, but my father, well he supports...ah, what is it called?" She said, the French in her coming out a bit as she spoke. " Something with a Ch in the name." She said waving her hand about as if it didn't matter. " Oh yes I remember now who my mother likes. She very much likes the Quiberon Quafflepunchers." She said, glad at having at least remembered that much about Quidditch. " What position do you play? That's right, yes? " She asked.
"I could, uh, explain the rules to you if you wanted....ever," Punz offered, trying to be friendly. She loved loved
loved anything relating to Quidditch - unless, of course, Mari ever decided to try out for the Ravenclaw team...because then they'd have a problem.
Something with a ch?!
"Chudley Cannons?!" Rapunzel blurted, swinging her orange messenger bag around to show the girl.
"They're my absolute favoritest team in the whole wide world...really....it would be a dream to play for them...." she sighed happily.
"Oh, I'm usually a Chaser, although I did try Keeping last term and it was a blast," Punz grinned almost ear to ear. She could talk about this for ages.

NOT that bad! "I guess not. though you cant always dodge them. They will hit you eventually and you'll fall to your death." Something rather similar happened to a friend of hers. Which started her paranoia of flying." I dont fly at all. I'll watch others do it and play quidditch. Be supportive and everything, but you wont get me on a broom." she said firmly as she wasnt getting on a broom."Unless im unconcious. You better hope i dont wake up though."
"of course i wouldnt torture you.Theirs no reason yet." she said with a smile. " she's the one to worry about." she told punz as she pointed over to mari. she had watched professional quidditch match once with her father. She was nervious the whole time." Which ones are french again?" she couldnt quite remember. That's who she would go for. "How long have you been playing?" she asked punz. "does anyone want anything to drink or eat?" she asked as she was thinking a butterbeer would go nicely about now.
Rapunzel turned from grinning at Mari to stare at Asteira.
What an odd thing to say, linking quidditch to violence! "Er, okay...." Punz responded slowly, both of her eyebrows rising to her hairline.
"I won't um, force you to fly or anything...." she gulped. For some reason, Asteira's odd comments were making her nervous.
And then they mentioned torture -
TORTURE?! "Wait.....whuuut? Tttorture?" Punz blinked and looked from Asteira to Mai and back.
"Yeah, a butterbeer sounds good right now," she agreed, still blinking a bit. It would certainly take the heat off of her and maybe give them a new topic besides.....er...fears of flying.
