Perhaps a large age span like that was a good thing then; made for less competition.... even though it was still competitive and you still had be on top of your game. No pun intended. "So what else besides quidditch interests you?" Because quidditch was contingent on being recruited.

"Well you still might have to visit the library, as my book collection are mostly limited to Arithmancy, Charms, and Muggle Fiction topics. But perhaps if you budgeted the first Sunday of every month to the library, this way you won't break the bank, but you'll still get in some time in the library towards unique titles that us Professors don't have in our own personal collections." You, just a suggestion. That was when Fina just remembered; she picked some up over the Summer and perhaps Toby would be one to find use for one of these. Rummaging through her top desk drawer, she pulled it out and held it out for him. "Here; You might find this useful in budgeting your time. It's a homework planner." Very popular among the muggle schools, but wizarding children found them useful too.

"What else?" Tobias repeated Professor Hadley's words, looking momentarily lost. What else was there? He was really focusing all his attention on Quidditch for the meantime, and improving as much as he could. "... Flying?" There wasn't really much else. Bouncing? "I mean... I like to keep active. If I have free time I like to run around the grounds. My grandfather says he's never seen me sit still." Indeed, at that moment he was bouncing one leg even as he spoke. "I even have a really cool pogo stick that I bounce around on. But apart from that... I think Ancient Runes and Astronomy are pretty cool. They're my favourite subjects. Professor Botros and Professor Airey make them even better, too. I wrote Professor Botros a whole letter in Elder Futhark over the summer, that was kinda neat to do."

And that was kind of all he could think of. Also there was Herbology, but that was more something he was kind of naturally good at and was only just starting to develop a proper interest. Did school subjects count as interests? It was kind of all he did...

AH WELL.

The whole time budgeting thing DID make a lot of sense. As long as he had some kind of plan or guide then he wasn't likely to just randomly go to the library when he was bored or something, and therefore wouldn't spend too much money. COOL.

When Professor Hadley retrieved the planner from her desk and held it out to him, reached out and took it, smiling slightly. At his old school, you got one of these things when you reached the senior school, which you joined when you were 11. Tobias never got to get his hands on one of them, because of Hogwarts and all, but had always sort of looked forward to getting one. But magic happened and he'd forgotten all about them 'til now. "Seriously?" he grinned. Like, he got to keep it? "Yeah, this'd be so useful. And so... organised." Would this be IT. THE DAY he became ORGANISED? "So like... I get to have this?" Tobias looked up, a hopeful expression on his face and his eyes twinkling.

PLEASE?
