The prefects have a double work load of school work and keeping an eye on the student body. Use these desks and the small library attached as either a study area, or an area to plan an event for the student body. |

And then her question. He bit his lip. "I'd find it.... impossible to choose. I just..." He trailed off. But he understood. He did. If astronomy brought her more joy than Quidditch though... "If you play Quidditch professionally... you could still do astronomy stuff afterwards." He pointed out. Impossible to choose. Brilliant help, he was. "That's... that's not what I meant." Pause. "Would you put your band stuff on hold for Quidditch?" Even after that analogy, Alice didn't think he got it. It didn't feel like something she was just 'interested' in; it was something she thoroughly enjoyed and had a passion for, just like she did for Quidditch. And putting either of them on hold would be... hard. Really hard.

But really, it wasn't like a record deal was on the cards right now not that he'd know since he never bothered with tarot anyway "I just mean... a Quidditch career isn't forever. It has a timeline. Old people don't play, and once you start busting out knees and all that, you're done." She knew that. Whereas Astronomy? You could always go back to yeah? It wouldn't be as if she would miss out... "Couldn't you play Quidditch and study part time like Dylan does?"

"Couldn't you play Quidditch and study part time like Dylan does?" Yeah, he probably wouldn't. But still... "I mean... I guess, yeah." It wouldn't be the same though. Sometimes, you really held a passion for something when you had a good teacher, and it would be the most fun when she was fresh out of Flamsteed's classes. Like now. "I...." Pause. That was something she'd considered, yeah. "I could. I'd love to. But didn't... you say he'd play better if his focus was undivided, though? And I mean... Quidditch is a full time job... and studying would still be hard.... dunno if I could do it." If she was good enough to do it.

Seriously. He meant it. "I just think... you've never really thought much of your skill in Quidditch... but that's because you're not a specialist, you're an all-rounder. You can play any position, and that is pretty rare. I DO think you're good. I'd put you on my roster you know." And West was picky. He just was. "The fact that you've been scouted, that's a pretty big indication that the rest of the world agrees with me. I think you could do it... if you wanted to do it. But you don't sound all that excited about getting scouted at all... even with the possibility of us ending up on the same team." Honestly, she didn't.

"I'm not an all-rounder. My keeping sucks." It did, truly. "And I'm excited. I am. It's just... the whole.... pressure of it all. Of choosing a career. It's so much I can't be excited about anything. About either of them." A battle was constantly raging in her head between if she wanted to keep studying or play sports, especially with opinions being forced on her by certain people. "It's... it's scary is all. To think about what would happen if I'm not good enough. At either of them." Because if she messed up at all... well. That was her life. It was her life. And she was overthinking things as always.

"Only against me." He gave her a smug look, which was partly just to get a rise out of her and all. "You are definitely good enough." He took her hand and turned it over, idly tracing little designs into the palm of her hand. "If you do the Astronomy thing... what does that involve? Going to Wizarding University?"

Only against Hufflepuffs." She'd actually never kept against him, but Alice was sure he would mess her up too. Not that she'd ever say so.
West got a kick in his direction for the smug look anyway. "Yeah. University. To get a degree and stuff." Where else?

And he still wasn't getting that sort of vibe that she really wanted it... and it did seem like she was overthinking it all too. It seemed simple to him, Quidditch first then uni when she was done with Quidditch... or that part time.

... was he listening to her at all or.....?

She could do both, or do Astronomy junk after she was done playing professionally, and then she'd get the best of both worlds. Total win.

Her decision didn't feel any easier at all. If anything, West had just confused her.
Alice eyed him back, still at a complete loss. He was no help. Psh.

Alice eyed him back, still at a complete loss. He was no help. Psh. But really, what was HE going to do? HER choice was easy, his wasn't. At all. Sigh. He pushed the Quidditch books away. Better not to stress over it. He'd talk to Tyner and maybe go from there? "Wanna go do something fun?" Brows. Did she?

Hopefully a distraction of sorts, 'cause it'd be nice to not think for a bit. Flying?

West put his things in a neat pile, intending to collect them later, and held out his hand for her.

Taking his hand, Alice got to her feet and started for the exit. Slowly.

Taking his hand, Alice got to her feet and started for the exit. Slowly. Slowly? Nah. West went ahead and gave her a piggy back, which had become kinda a thing since she'd got all physically old.
... it was just lucky she didn't look all old like most of the others, because probably? West wouldn't be able to handle that.
For reasons.
