THEY 'WOULD UNDERSTAND SOME DAY.' Soph was thinking about kissing Tobes, now, and couldn't help but giggle. Too funny.
TOBY WAS A U17 SUPERSTAR. She beamed and wiggled in her seat in excitement at the mentioning of the Hufflepuff's brilliance until it was her turn to share. "M'summer's good, yeah," she answered for herself, still grinning stupidly at Toby. "Traveled a little with my mum, got to see Tobes here, got to see Cat - all that's missing was you, big guy." She nudged at him gently with an elbow and gave him a sad sort of smile. "Missed you." She had launched herself at him in a big hug, then, squishing some of the candy, but she didn't care. Mo hugs were important.
"I wasn't missing. I knew exactly where I was the whole time," Mo mused as he ruffled through the candy in the bag and then took exactly zero pieces. No heart for candy, at the moment, and he sort of wanted to keep sulking as long as possible. Candy might make him feel a bit better. "But I wasn't here, so that's fair, I guess. I was in Peru for July, and then West and I took a little lads' jaunt through Europe for most of August."
There were pictures. If she wanted to see them. And then... hello, no-longer-small-Sophie in his lap. "Missed you too. Oh." His face crumpled and he patted her hair. "I'm awfully sorry, Soph."

Cat nudged her way in and paused near the wall, looking at all three compartment dwellers and grinning. "Hello there. Mind?" No, of course not, surely. She smiled at Toby, since she'd never really spoken much to him before. She ruffled Soph's hair and then took a seat beside Mo, who happened to be have Sophie climbing on him. She grinned once again and kissed his cheek. Hi boyfriend. Boyfriend-jungle-gym.
Cat. He was so relieved Cat was there, and Mo turned fond-sad-bewildered eyes on her. She didn't even know what was wrong yet, but he needed her to make it better immediately. Okay? Fix everything, Caterina.
"I was looking for you, but then I found these two and they required my assistance in candy consumption." Just so she knew... he'd been looking for her FIRST and then got distracted.

"It's a shame, isn't it? I kind of think that getting to play together instead of against each other would have been the highlight of my... very short career." Mo's grin was all wobbly around the edges, but he WAS proud of Toby for making the team. The kid was really amazing... fast and clever on a broom and just made for the sport.
Ugh. He pictured having to tell all the little grinning faces like this about Quidditch and it made Mo just ill. "Maybe we can play a pick-up game this year. You and me against Sophie and anyone she thinks can possibly take us. Which is no one, if you want to know." Surely they were still allowed to fly, after all.
