Hmmmm, but wait..., "We should study together," he said, out of the blue, "Not Potions and Astronomy, let's leave those two behind, but the rest...we could try and see if I'm actually able to focus with you around." It had been rather difficult to do that before, and even during that History of Magic class that just ended. Which had been such a shame, since he knew a fair amount of information about wands.

She should stop telling him that he was an amazing student, though, he shrugged, "There's nothing to worry about when it comes to you," they shouldn't be worrying about their daughter's future either, yet Treyen's father had been lucky enough to have both kids pursuing what they wanted. Ellie just had to figure it out, and then her parents should be glad with knowing that she'll be happy doing whatever it was she wanted to. But...actually...if it involved Quidditch, there was PLENTY to worry about. He didn't mention that. He smiled instead, "I think you'll do more than well, does that count?" it ought to, at least, bring a smile to her face for trying to change it all around. Still, "It wouldn't be a bad idea, studying a bit more." With him. Wink.

'Thank you'. "It's nothing." It was nothing. He was under the impression that Kaika would be offering a whole lot of resistance into lending him her book, even more when he asked for a copy...but no, since it was for another Captain, she supposed it to be okay...after being persuaded by Treyen, of course.

And now it was time for a small laugh, "I'm sure you're not the only one that has thought about it." About the OWL in Flying. "But it's still not happening." He would've gotten 12 OWLs instead. That was...pressure enough for him to do better, right?

Once her head was on his shoulder, he placed his arm around her and waited patiently until an answer was given. And it wasn't the answer he'd been expecting, honestly, there had to be something else besides Quidditch and himself. "You...don't have to answer that right away...and we can actually forget I asked if that's going to be on your mind for the rest of the day." The Ravenclaw team could hex him if their Captain didn't have a clear mind by the time they had practice.

"Why are you carrying your broom around?" that was another interesting question.

Okay, seriously? Stoppit. There was NO way she'd get an A. She knew NOTHING. Nothing. "Is it that easy, then?" The only way she'd be able to get an A would be if all she had to do was name....five potions. Because she knew of three. By name, at least. She was probably aware of others, but... You know, that didn't matter because and OWL would never be that easy.

Maybe she could get her dad to ask her mom what would happen if she didn't take it. Her dad, like Treyen and herself, didn't think it was necessary for her to take Potions, either. Maybe she'll write to him.

"Study together? I think we could try that." She'd definitely be more willing to study if he were there. And, yes, she was ignoring the 'focusing with you around' bit. Treyen obviously did have focus even when she was right beside him. Need she bring up the match from last term?

See, Ellie agreed with her parents. They were right. They should be worried. She wouldn't pass, or even take, very many exams if it wasn't them she wanted to please. "Glad you think so." Though he was the only one.

That did make her smile. "It definitely counts." Studying more? Honestly, any studying on Ellie's part would be studying more. "Depends what's being studied." Or how many BOOKS were involved. She could be using that time to practice, after all.

Pffft. "It's not nothing." It was really useful and greatly appreciated. Especially in the circumstances Ellie put herself and her team in by LOSING that last match.

"Pity." The world would be a greater place with a flying OWL. You know, the people who proctor the exam were probably horrid fliers. They just don't want to let others succeed in what they would have failed. Probably.

Yeah, she wasn't going to forget that. Nor was she going to answer it, though. She'd figure out an answer, right? At some point. Hopefully. And he'll be the first person she'll tell.

Ugh. Her head turned to her broom again. "It saves time if I bring it with me because most classes are on floors below the Common Room. So it saves time to bring it to class rather than have to climb up the stairs to grab it, then going back down to the Pitch. Especially History of Magic." That was a lot of stairs. A lot of time. "I can use that time to actually be flying instead." She needed ALL the time she had free.
