With a chuckle, Alicia winked at Viktor, happy to see that he hadn't taken offense of her teasing. She watched him while he tried out the word she had supplied him with and nodded in return when he accepted it as the word he had been searching for. Her attention, however, was drawn to his arms, to the contours of his muscles when he stretched a little, and as soon as she realized what she was doing, she looked ahead of them again. It wasn't polite to stare, not even if it was at a fine specimen of man like Viktor Krum.
By now it wasn't difficult to see that Viktor didn't like talking about his language skills, so again, Alicia nodded, accepting his explanation, though she still believed that his English was more than just good enough for coaching Quidditch. Not only did his English come much faster than her Bulgarian did, but she had met English people with worse language skills than him, not to mention the fact that she was pretty certain she remembered Nigel's coach barking orders in sounds rather than actual words. "Sure," she agreed, setting into a light jog when Viktor suggested they run again. She, too, nodded ahead, indicating that he should set the speed this time.
"Yeah, I played back in school," she said with a small smirk, looking down at her feet before she added. "Turned down the invitation to try out for Pride of Portree to go into Healer training instead."
