Relief. That's what Ella felt. "Well good cause if you'd died that definitely would have put a damper on the party." the first year said sheepishly, cracking a smile.

Keefer's excitement about Ella maybe joining the team caused her smile to widen, though nervously. "Oh." The first year knew that the team would change as the terms went on but it was still quite sad. "They are both great. I know they will be missed." And how could she ever live up to either of them? But she shook off the doubts, listening to Keefer's advice instead. "I plan on it. I've actually been getting quite good at flying. I'm pretty quick...at least I think I am." Ah yes, the nerves. Those probably wouldn't be shed anytime soon. Ella was a constant worrier. "What p-position?" Oh no. Ella couldn't say. First, cause she didn't want Keefer to laugh and second, because saying it out loud meant it was real. That she was actually trying out. "I-uh-I was thinking of chaser...b-but I also think beaters are q-quite important and I-well I have a p-pretty good swing." Long tennis lessons had helped with that. The tiny badger looked up at Keefer, wondering if he would laugh at her.

Then, something distracted the first year from the conversation she was having about quidditch. She had seen Alyssa fall to the floor and Minnie was with her. O_O Was she okay? Ella felt quite nervous again, this time for the older badger crying out in pain. "Help her." She said quietly, looking at Keefer with wide worried eyes. Was Hadley still here too? Someone needed to make Alyssa better and soon.
