Perhaps finding the squid was not the right thing to do, but it was the first thing he thought of.
"How are everything for the tryouts coming along?" He asked her. "If need be, I'll take Torin's bat away from him if you would like," he said jokingly.
Miranda watched Ryder as he started to explain.
Groundskeeper? Really? Miranda always sort of thought he'd want to be a Healer...or a Professional Quidditch player or something. But he wanted to spend time outside, and she understood why he then had chosen Groundskeeper.
And it was a shame that Mister Masterson didn't want to help. It sounded almost like he didn't think anyone should be forced to have that job. Or something.
Shrug. "Well, the important thing is you tried. And who knows, maybe Mr. Masterson will change his mind later... Have you talked to Professor Shackleton?" She was a nice person, she would surely be able to help out.
And oh, Quidditch.
"Yeah...it's coming along." Miranda nodded her head gently.
"Signups close soon, so the actual session will be here pRetty sOoon." And that meant more nerves. Blergh. Miranda laughed at Ryder's jesting.
"Haha, well I'm glad you'll be there incase its necessary. But I'm sure everyone will be allright." Snort. She glanced to where she'd seen Torin sitting somewhere, hopng he hadn't heard. He was a nice guy, and was harmless with a bat. Tehe.
