[ There's some background noise, he's obviously still doing some things. He sounds a little far off. ]

All right, charms are all in working order, and...

[ The click of a trunk opening, then something whizzes by the microphone, and very suddenly Regulus is close to it as well, sounding pleased. ]Gotcha. Apparently, you're in working order too

[7thborn]

Oh, do we have enough people for a bit of a match?

action!

[7thborn]

[Ginny's found one she likes, the way it feels under her hand reminds her of Fred's broom; the one she took on as her own... after. She looks over her shoulder to Regulus and grins.]

I can tell. Have you ever managed to secure that massive stadium for a game? [raised brows] And you just found them? Charms intact and all? How's the Snitch?

action!

[facesdeath]

[ He grins back at her - he's got the one he always uses by his side already. ]

Once or twice, yeah. The couple times we've managed full teams. [ A pause. ] Yeah, it was the damnedest thing. The Snitch is ace.

action!

[7thborn]

[Can't wait any longer. Ginny swings a leg over and immediately feels better for it as soon as her feet leave the ground. Just hovering, but it's enough... for now.]

Any position you prefer, Regulus?

action!

[facesdeath]

[ He laughs, following suit. Hovering is fine for the time being, yeah. ]

Once a Seeker always a Seeker, but I can always switch off if need be.

action!

[7thborn]

[Ginny nods, rising a few more feet as she surveys the clearing, replying,]

Probably best. I did the same at school, but I'm a full on Chaser now. [Grinning,] I don't think I ever asked you what your favourite team was.

action!

[facesdeath]

Yeah. Some people think it's a bit odd but I don't really have a favourite. I've always liked the Caerphilly Catapults, though...

action!

[7thborn]

The Catapults are spectacular. I don't suppose you were around for their victory against Karasjok Kites? 1956, Euro Cup. [Thoughtfully, as she drifts around the clearing.] Probably a bit before your time and well before mine.

action!

[facesdeath]

Unfortunately, no. I was born a few years after. It would've been ace to have been there, though. [ He's sort of... lounging on the broom, as he says this. Lazy-ass. ]

action!

[7thborn]

[Exactly what Ginny's thinking when she looks back at him with a raised eyebrow. But she's amused.]

D'you reckon there's a pensieve memory of it somewhere? Probably the best way to watch it.

action!

[facesdeath]

[ Hey, he's allowed. ]

Probably! I bet if you asked around, there might be one.

action!

[7thborn]

[Totally. Ginny flies back around and smacks his shoulder lightly.]

If I remember, I will. ... Right, you. Fancy a race?

action!

[facesdeath]

[ He grins now, sitting up. ]

Always up for a race.

action!

[7thborn]

[Cue the slightly reckless Gryffindor grin.]

Name your start and finish points, then. You're more familiar with this place than I am.

action!

[facesdeath]

Let's see... How about once 'round the City proper and back here? It's the simplest route.

[ He's so ready. ]

action!

[7thborn]

[Ginny quickly maps out the course in her head and figures it's easy enough to follow. Nods. Another quick grin and she's rocketing off without another word but a hell of a lot of laughter.

... Cheating? Maaaybe a bit.]
