Aw, another Chaser in da house! "It's wonderful, isn't it? Really? So have you played much outside school?" What sort of experience did she have? Not that it mattered really, it wouldn't destroy her chances to be on the team. If she played well that day then that's all that mattered.

She couldn't help but chuckle at the excitement of the girl as she asked her questions. "I haven't thought about the date for the tryouts yet, but there will be an announcement in the Common Room and Quidditch Pitch about it, so you wont miss it. Oh...about twenty to thirty students usually...though I can't really remember and I'm bad at counting heads hehe." Yeah. "All you have to do is show up and play your best." She nodded and smiled. "It's really simple. And you don't have to be nervous about it!"
They have lots of transfers. That's good. Evelyn was really hoping to make lots of good friends at this school. If Hayden didn't get sorted into Hufflepuff, then maybe she could introduce Evelyn to some people in her house. Evelyn turned and looked at the Sorting Hat, sitting on it's stool. Hayden hasn't come in yet. I hope she's alright. Maybe I should have waited with her on the train...

"I've played a lot of Quidditch, but nothing serious. I have a big family, so we play together out over our field. We just levitate crates for goals," Evelyn chuckled. They worked just fine, except when the 'designated levitators' moved a crate just as she was about to block, or score, a goal. Her cousins were lucky she was so forgiving and uncompetitive. Didn't make it any less unfair!

"I'll keep an eye out for the notices. I'll see you at tryouts." Evelyn wasn't sure if she meant this as a farewell or not. She liked Miranda, but she didn't want to keep her from her fifth year friends. And it wasn't like Evelyn wasn't going to see Miranda again. Evelyn didn't mind. Her head was spinning at the mention of other places in the castle she hadn't seen yet. Common room! Darcy said the Hufflepuff common room is somewhere in the basement. Sounds cosy! And the Quidditch pitch! I bet it's enormous!

"Yeah, my pops grew up in London and wanted me to go to Hogwarts. Apparently it's a betta' school than the Aussie Institute." Cy shrugged indifferently, he could care less about education; he wasn't exactly the smartest kid around. His grades showed that.

ANYWAYS, back to this girl. "So, you're from down unda' as well?" It'd be nice to have another around. So very nice.
Evelyn giggled with surprise and happiness. 'No worries. Down unda'. This boy sounded so out of place amongst everyone else here. Is that what I sounded like in Australia with my British accent? "No. I'm a 'Pom', as you Aussies like to call us. Originally from Surrey, past five years spent mostly in New South Wales, and now we're back in England, but we've moved from Surrey to Somerset." He didn't ask for you life story, Evelyn.

Evelyn realised how happy she was that there was an Aussie at Hogwarts. If she ever started to miss Australia, he was always there to at least listen to.

"The school? Yeah. I didn't go there much. I was mostly home-schooled. So... how many years have you been at Hogwarts?"

"I am afraid oh heights but I can give it a try the way you make it sound, it sounds exciting." she said and gave her a smile. Then she made her pensive face. "I like trying new things, and it won't hurt me besides mommy says to always face your fears so I will try." she said smiling and got an idea. "Will you guys show me how to play?" she asked clapping her hands together with an excited expression.
Nulu didn't seem as worried about flying anymore as she spoke to Miranda about Quidditch. "You should definitely give it a go," Evelyn jumped in, "As long as you're not stupid, there's nothing to be worried about. Those things are built to go fast and keep you safe. Maybe we could practice together sometime?" Evelyn was just excited about flying her Firebolt again! Who cared about whether she made the Quidditch team, Evelyn just wanted to fly! Her mum couldn't send her broom fast enough! Evelyn drank some more hot cocoa to calm herself down before she accidentally made herself fly out of her chair with excitement.
