Learning about gobstones
After what felt like a long day of classes, she walked outside to the courtyard to get some fresh air and maybe even relax. She walked around a bit until she saw an empty spot near the fountain. She walked over and sat down she took out a book on the different games there were in the wizarding world, and she came upon one that looked interesting.
"Gobstones? I've never heard of it, but it looks like it could be interesting. "
she continued to read about the game, getting even more interested
"You get sprayed by a smelly liquid if you lose?"
she found herself becoming more invested in learning about the game she continued reading about that particular game
"they look like marbles. I've never been sprayed by marbles before. What makes these different?"
as she read on, she had the growing urge of wanting to play the game and see what it was about.
"I don't think I'll be able to play this game. it's for two players, and I also don't own a set of gobstones."
feeling a little disappointed, she continued flipping through the pages in the book, hoping to find an interesting one that she could play with, but gob stones seemed the most interesting to her.

Learning about gobstones
@Maia Stevenson
Elisa had her nose in a book. She was at the most exciting point, how could she stop? She had just received a letter from her parents telling her to spend a little more time out in the Hogwarts grounds, as they were 'very beautiful indeed'. But just how could she let go of her book?
That's how Elisa decided to bring her book to the Courtyard, and read while enjoying the 'beautiful scenery', if you could do both at the same time.
People say reading and walking at the same time isn't safe, and Elisa learned that the hard way.
She almost fell right into the lap of a Ravenclaw girl sitting in the Courtyard. "Oh my, I'm so sorry!" Elisa exclaimed.
Elisa looked up, and saw that the student was reading as well. 'Famous Games of the Wizarding World', she managed to decipher. The girl was reading about gobstones! And it did seem that she was quite intrigued by the wizarding game. A muggle-born, probably.
Elisa put shut her book (the first time in many hours!) and sat down next to the girl. She recognised her as a fellow 1st Year. She might have had class with her too. What was her name again? It had M, she was sure. Maella? Mia? Elisa wondered. Best not to take risks, I'll just ask her, she thought.
"I'm Elisa! Elisa Wagner. Nice to meet you! I'm so sorry I bumped into you." Elisa said, a smile forming on her face.
