"Really?" His eyebrows shot up in surprise before letting out a sigh. "I guess it's different for everyone, huh? I love flying, but you already know that. It's the feeling of the wind in your hair and the biting cold against your skin as you soar at breakneck speeds across the sky," Xander shrugged, a sheepish grin adorning his face, "for me, it's what it's like to feel well and truly alive."

"I... Actually mentioned you to them before," Ricardo admitted sheepishly. "When I first realized how I felt about you. They're really hoping to get to meet you one day anyway." Vincent couldn't help but chuckle. "Maybe this weekend?" he suggested. "Would that be a good time?" |

"You talk like a poet," she said with a snort. "I mean, it's pretty cool that you're so passionate about something. A little bit creepy, but still cool." Rita grinned, hoping he was the type to recognise her teasing as such, and not take offence.

"Yes! It's going to be great," Ricardo grinned, squeezing Vincent's hand. "But first, I want to find Leo and tell him that were together now. I hope he'll be okay with it."

"Creepy huh?" He gaped in mock horror. "Nah, there's nothing much going for me so I might as well capitalise on my good points, right? I don't know what I'd do if I couldn't fly though, I'm pretty sure it's what keeps me sane."

"I don't see why he wouldn't be," Vincent said with a shrug. He stood, pulling Ricardo up with him. "Where would he be right now?"

"I... Have no idea. Maybe we should check around the Hufflepuff commons?"

"I wouldn't say there's nothing much going for you," she smirked, not at all bashful. "You're not bad looking, you know? You should hear some of the things my friends have said. I mean, if you weren't a player on an enemy team..."

"That sounds about right." Vincent nodded. "Alright then. Let's go." He smiled, leading the way across the quidditch pitch.

"W-what?!" He spluttered, feeling the heat rise in his face. "What's that supposed to mean?" A pause. "It's not the hair is it? It shouldn't be the hair, it's an absolute nightmare from all that flying and it consumes entire brushes whenever my mum tries to get the family to dress up."

"It's the hair," she confirmed, suppressing a laugh at his reaction. "Girls go mad for that messy look. Although, your physique helps, I'm sure." She remembered Mark getting insanely jealous once over when she'd commented on the aesthetic appeal of more muscular guys. The memory made her smile, more out of spite than anything else.

Xander self-consciously raised a hand to run through his hair, a half amused, half embarrassed look on his face. "Physique, huh? I guess wizards are hardly doing themselves a favour by sitting around and letting magic do all the work for them... And we can't all be Quidditch nuts, can we?" It wasn't exactly hard to appreciate such things, even for someone like him who devoted most of their attention elsewhere.

"True," she said with a light smirk. "I suppose the one advantage of being a Muggle is that you probably lose a lot of weight from all the running about. It must be really annoying to not be able to flick your wand and have what you need right there in front of you."

"They don't even have brooms to fly on." He shook his head in a resigned manner. "It must get inconvenient at times... But one of my dorm mates takes Muggle Studies and he says that they're pretty inventive. Something about being able to learn a thing or two from them?" Xander shrugged, unconvinced.

"Their medical advancements are fairly impressive," she said with a shrug. "Honestly, I feel like magic has been a bit of a setback as far as that's concerned. Wizards are completely lost when it comes to the more invasive types of surgery; we only ever bother with the cure of magical diseases and hexes. It's a shame, really."

"Right..? But some potions can replace the use of surgery, can't they?" He furrowed his brow, setting the book down on a nearby table as a familiar ache in his muscles began to set in. "Skele-Gro is old but I'm sure Muggles can't heal broken bones over a night."

"Magic is better in some cases," she said, narrowing her eyes in thought. "But there's no option as of yet to replace a heart, or a lung. Muggles have figured out how to do that with knives and monitors. And they have this contraption that can do the job of the lungs outside of the body. It's almost like... Well, like magic."
