Posted. I was going to take us out to the field, but I figured Chandler should get a chance to react to events before being dragged out to flying lessons.
A lot seemed to happen all at once. Caelum managed to explain the problem she'd had the previous day which Zava listened to with interest. The expression on her face failed to change, but Nolan got the impression that the explanation satisfied her. Why she showed such an interest was a still a mystery to him, however. Before Nolan could add anything further to her explanation, there was a loud clatter and the overpowering smell of fish stew. The stew had splashed everywhere, but luckily he and Caelum were far enough away that the splash didn't quite reach them.
He sighed in annoyance as Peeves sang the whole way out chasing after the doused Slytherin team. He saw Zava watch her teammates run out and roll her eyes. "Peeves is already up to no good, huh?" She turned to the two first years again the disinterested look having returned to her face, "Ugh, Marie's going to need some help getting it out of that hair of hers, and I won't hear the end of it if I don't help. But it looks like we got just another batch of boring first years. Try not to die or get eaten before dinner." She adjusted her scarf and then got up and walked away after the rest of the Quidditch team.
"Those guys all seem to cause a lot of trouble," he muttered to Caelum. "I wonder if this what our whole seven years is gonna be like." He spoke over his shoulder as he tried to wipe up some of the liquid that had flowed over the table. It had already started leaking on to the floor in one spot, and he didn't want it to run off the table onto his robes. There seemed to be some commotion out in the hall, but he shook his head and finished wiping away their part of the table. Last time he'd tried to see what was going on, he'd gotten detention. "Anyway, I think lunch is nearly over, right? I think Flying is next." A grin spread across his face, as he said this. His other classes may be full of information he'd never seen before, but this was something he could do. Something he'd enjoy.
He was surprised but pleased to find Chandler joining them again. He was also glad he'd kept the stew from covering the area where Chandler had chosen to sit. Despite his sympathy, Nolan had to fight to supress a chuckle when Chandler related his morning to them.
"What did you miss?" He looked to Caelum with his eyes wide. "Let's see... Morning classes. Nothing too interesting, just 'magic is dangerous and hard and you're gonna have to work hard to learn it' about four different times. There's not much homework except for reading. Professor Quinn assigned us to figure out how to curse a teaching position..." It occured to him that Chandler would likely have no idea what he was talking about concerning the curse. "Uh, you can copy my notes and we can go over it later. Right now you should eat quick because we have class soon." He gesutred to the food in front of them. "Anyway, after that you missed the Roy Archer Show. By the way, he said we should apologize to that kid you hit with the door. I didn't get a name or anything though. He's got some blue hair, so he shouldn't be hard to spot." He then went on to summarize the incident with the poltergeist just minutes before.

I'll try and post later today. I'm out touring chemical plants and stuff for work. Probably not getting home til late.
Miss the second day of classes in the Hospital Wing lol
*goes to do research on Chandler*
Don't mess with Chandler. He'll blow up a door on you. And then Castiel will you use as a litter box.
I dunno. Are Beaters really the ones who takes the most hits though? Wouldn't they actually get hit the least? Lol I imagine Quidditch players in general would take a beating. Bludgers do not discriminate and the Beaters sure aren't going to knock at someone who can knock it right back. At least not most of the time. I imagine Chasers would be the most common target. Either way we're dealing with wizards who pretty much shrug off most non-magical injury/disease.
And yay, Apoalo's back!!!

Just realized one of the upsides to having the only Slytherin. No competition for any spot on the team. And word on the street is a spot's about to open up 
I actually don't see Nolan joining first year though. As hard as he works and as much as he knows about the game, I think he lacks the raw talent to be good enough to get on the team right off the bat. He'd likely dominate pickup games or a first year league, but first year rule or no, there's no way he's gonna beat out every other Slytherin trying out. And even if he did, there's no way he'd be able to handle the distraction. It'd make for a bad start.

Pssh, Seekers. Everyone knows Beaters have the most fun.
You got McGonagall'd. Geez that underage bit made me feel guilty. Nice work with that!
