"Yeah, Papa talks about his Quidditch days and how he hoped that one of us would be Seeker. C is Keeper for Slytherin and he's just brilliant at it. Mama plays sometimes with us, or when we can have friends over who know the game. She's a surprisingly good Beater, but she mostly plays Keeper. She taught C how."
Growing up learning how to kick ass with a staff can make anyone a surprisingly good Beater. Spending a lifetime learning how to guard makes her best suited for Keeper, though.
Mushy stuff. It's nice and all, he's more willing to hear about happily ever after than his older brother, but it is about his mother. Kind of hard to think about her in romantic terms unless your first name happens to be Oedipus.
"C would probably be a good Seeker himself, but he likes playing Keeper better. Wonder what Cissa might want to play when she gets bigger."
Being only five, she's not permitted to play with real Bludgers and such just yet. Watching is always fun, though.
Ginny isn't one to get in to the details with him so he should be safe there. She's just talking as someone who admires the slightly older woman for her strength.
"Yeah, I don't know. Maybe she'll be a chaser that is really the best spot to play... Or I think so."
"I bet she would like that. She really likes watching, though. Now that she's old enough to pay attention, all of us have been talking about going to the next Quidditch World Cup."

He hasn't seen her since she was, well, his age.
"How are you?"

"I'm good and your self? You okay with the beans?"
She almost has a memory now of meeting him.

"I'm doing good. And the beans are fine, just ran into a spinach one."
That was one of those odd ones Mama liked when she was pregnant. Papa was right, she ate some weird stuff.
"How are things at home? How's the family?"

"Yeah, Those are nasty. I like the peach ones. Did you know this place has these things called Jelly Belly that don't have those.?"
She smiles.
"I'm good I have two more weeks at school. And the last time I seen your mom and dad they were shining with happiness."

Now that he really pays attention to her, she does look a whole lot younger.
"Are you from the past? Like when we ran into Auntie Kate? And Cepheus said he ran into Papa here before he and Mama got married."

"Yeah, I think so And yeah that happens I met James at this age too. DO you know James Potter?"
Reply
"Oh yeah, we know Jimmy Potter. C can't stop talking about him ever since he became Seeker for Gryffindor."

"That's good. Do you play Quidditch?"

Of course if you ask her not near as good as Harry. But she wouldn't tell that to the little guy.
