He nodded. “Great.” He smiled. He hoped his best bud would agree to staying with them. It might get very boring with Warren being on duty the whole time otherwise. He wondered what they could do inbetween matches to keep themselves occupied. His green eyes glinted mischievously at the thought. Hiding Warren's possessions might be good for a lark. Maybe vanish his bed and clothes. Oh Merlin.. that was just cruel. “I heard one of the campsites hasn't even got a tap.” He raised his eyebrows – Nate would be ok with that but he wasn't sure how well his wee brother would take to it. “We should try and get a spot near the grounds if we can.” Where the facilities were better. But at this rate and the inability to find their Portkeys, they were going to be among the last there... “We could try accio-ing our Portkeys.” He suggested. Could you accio a Portkey? What if it hit someone on the way over.. would they then be transported to your destination? Oh how the mind boggles. He looked at Tristan. “It's alright, really. Nothing to worry about." He said kindly and patted him on the back. There was nothing wrong with not having experienced Portkey travel.. in fact, you were kinda lucky... but he wasn't going to say that to Tristan. “Oh it's a weird experience. It's not as bad as apparition because you don't get that feeling of being squeezed.. and there's no danger of being splinched.” He assured the man who was looking a little nervous. “But it can be a bumpy ride and you have to hold on tight – it kinda feels like you're being pulled along.” He thought for a moment. “I can travel with you if you're a feeling a bit anxious about it, mate.” He offered. Anything for his bro. |
He had to chuckle at his friends Irishness. He was getting better and better at it. Haha. Tristan wasn't even goint to
attempt doing a Scottish accent. But he had a place to camp, great! He had initially just been planning on going all hermit again, but he wasn't sure he could seeing as it had been over a year since he had been out in the greenery.
Ugh.
Tristan frowned.
"Really?" Well, they weren't going to stay at the tapless-field, right? Or it wouldn't really bother him that much, just as long as they had bottled water to drink or something.
"Doesn't that like breach a Human rights convention?" It was rather odd, that there was a field where people couldn't get water. And he was pretty sure it was folk with less money in their pockets. Hm, maybe he was exaggerating.
"Yeah that sounds good." He nodded. Near the grounds. They would be so much closer to...Quidditch.
Yay... But his big brother enjoyed the sport, Tristan would endure that for him.
"Ah!" Tristan pointed at Nathan, thinking that he had come up with a good idea. Accio-ing the portkeys! Taking out his wand, Tristan cleared his throat and aimed it at...Um...
"What if we hit someone with them?" he said in a low tone, but soon the image of someone getting attacked by a hat and a microphone won over and he couldn't contain the small laugher.
"Hey, you think you could Accio anything?" How about an elephant? The idea he had had back in DA came back to him. Oh, they needed to try that out someday!
Nathan was really calming him down, he was really glad to have caught up with him here. All this portkey travelling was getting him rattled. So no squeezy feeling but bumpy.
"Like a roller coaster?" he asked with eyebrows raised. If it was, then it would be pretty fun.
Oh yay! "Thanks, mate." Tristan said with a smile of gratitude.
"I think I'll be allright. Plus," he said, straightening up and puffing his chest out,
"I'm a big boy, I can do it." Yeah he looked like a little kid, but that was the idea.
Haha. "Or maybe we should get the same portkey, that way we don't get too spread out?" How about that.
