That afternoon, outside the castle, the students, Gryffindor and Slytherin, are lined up in two rows with brooms by their sides. The teacher, Madam Hooch, comes down the line. She has short hair and hawk yellow eyes. Hooch: Good afternoon, class.
Mia beamed with excitement, expressing her genuine delight as she shared her thoughts, "Ohh, that was probably the best class I've taken!" Her eyes sparkled as she continued, "After yours, of course," directing her gaze towards Remus.
Remus chuckled warmly, nodding in gratitude at Mia's words, his eyes reflecting his pleasure at her enthusiasm.
Sirius and Remus exchanged a glance filled with anticipation, eager to see Mia's first time lifting the broom.

Mia rolled her eyes at his antics.

The entire hall erupted into laughter as Ron's antics amused them. The sound of joyous laughter filled the air, echoing as students and teachers alike found themselves overcome with amusement at Ron's unexpected display.
Hooch: Now, once you've got hold of your broom, I want you to mount it. And grip it tight, you don't want to be sliding off the end. [the class mounts on their broomsticks] When I blow my whistle, I want each of you to kick off from the ground, hard.
