She grinned at the compliment. "Gymnastics and a couple of self-defense classes go a long way." Also, insane bat!training.
Ah. How the hell to explain the Black Mask? "Just a nightmare." It was as honest as answer as any. "Kicking it felt pretty awesome, not gonna lie. I feel bad for boggart, though!"

Gymnastics, huh? She hadn't met anyone else here yet who'd done gymnastics, that she knew of. "How long did you do gymnastics? I'm pretty out of practice now, but I used a lot of that training when I was younger." She could still do a fair bit of it, once she'd warmed up; it just took a lot more warming up than it used to. "And hey, I know all about nightmares. I wouldn't feel bad for kicking the boggart, either--it's its own fault, for looking like your worst fear."

"For years! I was on my high school team. Sadly, they don't have a team here - I had to settle for qudditch." The game of wedgies! "Seems like most people here know a thing or two about nightmares. Some of those boggarts were..." Yeah. She smirked, eager for a lighter topic. "Jack's especially. Drunken monkeys are terrifying."

"Did you? I did all kinds of gymnastics when I was younger--I was in a series of B-movies, and there was a lot of jumping and flipping and general flailing." Molly had heard of Quidditch, and it did not sound appealing--she wasn't so down with heights, especially after the Roof Incident.
She laughed. "Yeah, he'd told me he had a thing against monkeys, but I didn't think it was that big of a thing. Still, if your worst fear is a boozed-up monkey, you're probably doing something right."

"Yup! Had to drop it after the coach quit, though." Meh. Movies were much more interesting than Coach Cokehead. "Cool! Those are three of my favorite activities. Do you still 'jump around', to quote the wise House of Pain?"
Steph laughed. Damn good point. "The little guy didn't even have a weapon. Now a drunk monkey with a sharp object, there's a fear I can get behind."

Molly laughed. "I thought he was kind of cute, in an evil little rodent sort of way. The rum...I can't explain."

"Maybe he's had so much of it that it's replaced food and water as his primary mode of sustinece?" Somebody had been studying her technical terms!
