[Hexed to Tonks] How are you? How's the baby? I heard but I haven't really and I can't wait any longer. How's Professor Lupin? When can I see you both? [/Hexed]
Congratulations, Ravenclaw. Well played. Better team won and all that rot
[Hexed to the team] Really, you lot did a good job out on that pitch. A bit more practice in you and we'll be in fine shape for the next match. One game means nothing. Especially not when it's the first match of the season. So there will be no talk about anyone being the worst players in the history of the game. And there will be no talk about killing yourselves or others over a match.
At it's core, Quidditch is a game and if you're not having fun, you're doing it wrong.
Practice again starting on Wednesday after dinner. I expect you all there in an attitude ready to work hard. [/Hexed]
[Hexed Private but the Trio can read] Merlin in hell. It's only the first game but...
I really, really, really wanted to win. First game as captain and I...
Well it shouldn't matter. They did their best and it wasn't completely wretched. I mean, the Chasers were still bloody off and I need to work on that with them because it can't go on any longer. And Dennis needs to pay a bit more attention, but for a first effort losing to Seeley is not something to be ashamed of. She's older and has been playing a few years like. Dennis did alright for himself.
In all that's going on, Quidditch shouldn't be this heavy on my mind. There's two new babies in the family for Merlin's sake. I mean, sure Tonks isn't blood really, but she's as good as. She's more my sister than Percy's my brother and well...that's got to count for summat.
Quidditch shouldn't be making me all...
It's just a game, right? So why does it feel like so much more? [/Hexed]
