She decided that her best bet was to focus on the match but it was still pretty confusing to her. "I really think I'd be rubbish at this! I'm not good at coming up with answers that quickly." She furrowed her brow, thinking about how little she knew at the moment. "I'm happy just being a spectator this year, cheering is my specialty." She smiled and then turned her attention back to the match.
Minerva smiled at Ella "Oh Ella you would do fine at this. I played last term and wasn't sure I would be any good either. I bet you would do better then me. If you want we could practice to see if you like it." She would need to get ready for their fist game anyway so why not practice.

"Of course, the more cheer the merrier." Because that's how it worked yes? cheer=merry ergo more cheer= more merry.
Seren watched and waited patiently for the Hufflepuff to stop rambling. Did the girl have a case of verbal diarrhea? ... again?
Smiling politely she bowed her head slightly. It wasn't as if they were seated in the stands, and considering she was in a conversation with Oakey... how Alyssa thought she couldn't be overheard in such close proximity was beyond her. She wasn't deaf after all.
"I'll be there... so if you're there, then I don't see why we cannot sheer for them both together." Though the hardest part would be deciding where to sit. With the Lion crew or the Eagle crew? Or somewhere neutral?
"It's not all that difficult.. you just need a little concentration and a good arm," she said, giving Ella a wink. "With a little practice you'd get the hang of it."
OOC: the questions/answers are OOC, IC they just roll marble like stones toward another stone called the jack stone. (;
Minerva smiled as Professor Bentley told Ella that Gobstones was not that hard. She remember seeing her at the games last year as well. "Hello Professor." Minerva smiled and waved.

She was surprised to see so many students gathered around and she clicked up slowly and tried to squeeze her way through the little crowd so she had a better view.
And she had arrived just in time to see a great game taking place. She smiled excitedly and leaned in closer to the ring.
"Hello Professor, hope your are enjoying the game? Did you play gobstones when you were a student?" Minerva was very interested in the things she had done as a student after their conversation in her office. She liked knowing that one of the professors was from the states.
