Benny loved the classes and environs of the outside but as a Gryffindor, they were practically the farthest points away from each other. After quidditch matches it was only adrenaline that could help one trudge back to the dorms.
Race or ride...race or ride? Benny muled over the ideas, both appealing to the fourth year. "I think just a ride for today," he finally answered. Get them back reacclimated to the creatures and vice versa. Plenty of time for racing over the course of the term. Besides, just being close to the creatures was exciting. Now they just had to decide or at least see which creatures were willing to join them.
Benny looked regretful about something and Adi figured it had to be for being late. Adi didn't mind the lateness. He was a patient Hufflepuff, after all.
"Look on the bright side. It'll help keep you in shape.'' Always he had to find a positive side of stuff. Adi had a vision of Benny puffing up and down the stairs.
"Too bad you can't hop on a dragon and fly down.'' Now that would be super cool!
As Benny thought over the two alternatives, Adi studied the horses. If they were going to race, he was going to choose an Granian. If they were just going to ride for fun, it would most likely be the Abraxan or Aethonan. Ride? Okay.
"That's fine by me. Hey, Benny. You think the Hippogriffs are here?'' Hippogriffs were not technically Winged Horses but he had figured they might be close to the Winged creatures. He'd prefer to ride a Hippogriff, anyway. "
Which are you going to choose?'' Decisions, decisions.
