[First Filter: To Hufflepuff Quidditch team members.]

Look, I know everyone's got their mouths yapping about that new teacher Snow. Obviously the man's bad news, but only if you give him lip. He's not teaching us Hufflepuffs so as your captain I'd just like to ask all of you to keep mum around him and try not to have anything to do with the man at all. I don't agree with a lot of what he's saying, but getting worked up and pointing fingers at the Ministry isn't going to change the fact that he's here at Hogwarts and that if he wants to he could place you in detention, maybe even when we have a game. So just...stay out of his way, be polite if he talks to you, but for the love of God don't antagonize, disagree or be outright rude with him.

I'm setting up another Quidditch practise this weekend. Make sure you're all there.

[Second Filter: To Arthur and to Katniss]

You know anything about this Snow character?

I don't plan on it.

If he does something to Xion though, I won't be held responsible for anything I do.

[Perma filter]

[di_intraining]

If he does anything to Xion, just tell the professors. Let them deal with it. At least he can't put them in detention or something.

[luxextenebris]

They won't be able to do anything about it. He already shut up Professor Matteris when she started talking about camp out loud.

[di_intraining]

Not to be rude about her, but she's not exactly Miss Friendly Personality, and frankly insulting the Ministry in front of a guy who's obviously someone from up top? Not exactly the best of ideas.

Look, try Professor Vantas-Leijon. She's our Head of House and she's good with people.

[luxextenebris]

...Alright.

[But if Axel makes a move, Roxas is probably going to follow.]

[di_intraining]

Can you promise me this Roxas? I don't want you, on any occasion at all, to have anything to this with this guy.

I don't want to see you get in trouble. Not just because I'm your captain, but because I'm your senior and I'm trying to look out for you.

[luxextenebris]

I know you are. I appreciate the sentiment but I can look out for myself, and I look after my friends first of all.

I promise.

[di_intraining]

Good lad. You ever need to talk or vent about something, or just want some advice, I'm here for you.

[Better to talk to him than to talk it over with someone else who might encourage Roxas to do God know what.]

[luxextenebris]

Thanks, Greg. I'll take you up on that if I need to.

[Lies. He has the best friends.]

I guess it means keeping our heads down for aw)(ile, )(e seems really scary t)(oug)( i kinda )(ave a feeling )(is going to pick on anyone even t)(oug)( t)(ey would be innocent.

[di_intraining]

I wouldn't put it past him, but so long as we stick together and stay out of trouble he'll have less chances to start on us.






Might want to tell your brother to zip it too. He's digging himself into a deep hole.

[bubblingover]

I t)(ink t)(is means we )(ave to work toget)(er as team mates not just on the field but also during sc)(ool, watc)( out for eac)( ot)(er and stuff.

[A pause as she goes to look herself.]

fuck. I got talked to )(im now, t)(anks for the )(eads up, Greg!

[di_intraining]

Yeah. I'm mainly worried about Ognian. You know the Jaegars; they say whatever's on their mind, and Oggie's not gonna like Snow's attitude.






No problem. Give him a right whack on the head when you see'im, maybe he'll learn to keep his quill to himself.

[bubblingover]

we )(ave to watc)( out for )(im, but i am sure once we get it into )(im t)(at Snow means business, i am sure )(e will be fine.


T)(at's t)(e t)(ing, )(e never learns!! I just )(ope somet)(ing wit)( )(im sticks t)(is time, i don't want to t)(ink about w)(at Snow could do to )(im. But yes, you )(ave permission from me to give )(im a good slap over t)(e )(ead!!

[di_intraining]

Let's hope so.

Confiscate his quill or his journal or something. He's looking more like an idiot than ever before, and nobody likes a snitch. I don't particularly want speak to him, much less hit him on the head, if he's going to rat me out to Snow.

[bubblingover]

I will be on my toes with Oggie.

)(e has a )(abit of getting )(imself into more trouble t)(en )(e can )(andle, i've only gotten to know )(im better over t)(e last mont)( and i can already be giving lists of everyt)(ing wrong )(is done so far. But i will try my best to keep )(im from doing anyt)(ing stupid.

Just stay out of his way.

Second filter

[di_intraining]

Don't need to tell me twice, but I was hoping for a little more than that. Is he going to be a problem this year, you reckon?

Second filter

[cantstarvethisfire]

Yeah, he's going to be a problem.

Listen, my sister Prim is in Hufflepuff, if you see him talking to her, find an excuse to get her away or run and find me.

Second filter

[di_intraining]

Noted.

I'll keep an eye out for her. I might ask the Hufflepuff girls to help out too. You alright with Nepeta and Feferi?

Second filter

[cantstarvethisfire]

Thanks, I don't know them but if you're vouching for them I'll be fine with that.

He stinks of roses.

Second filter

[di_intraining]

Yeah, they're great. I would've asked Rapunzel too, but I think she's all for giving Snow a warm welcome to Hogwarts.

[Someone's bitter.]

Second filter

[cantstarvethisfire]

She'll be in for a rude awakening then. I'm not about to go giving details on why I know what he's like, I have to watch my back now, but tell her that I know what he's like.

Second filter

[di_intraining]

I don't think she'll listen, but maybe when she's less worked up I'll tell her that. I'd like her to have a clearer head because she's a Prefect and she'd probably be able to keep a better eye on Prim, but that's not gonna happen for now.

Anyway, thanks for the warning. I hope he's not going to give you or your sister too much trouble.

I think my father's mentioned him before. He's not someone to be trifled with.

[Inksplots...]

I suppose I could subtly fish for information in my next letter. I know he doesn't much care for me but if I imply that the High Inquisitor is here and he thinks it's going to be dangerous I know he'll tell me.

Mother would browbeat him into it. Hah.

[Filtered]

[di_intraining]

Thanks. I appreciate it.

By the way, how did your try-outs go?

[Filtered]

[rule_britannia]

Rather well I think.

I had to borrow one of the school brooms. I didn't trust mine not to try and throw me off again.

[Perma filter]

[di_intraining]

That's good news to hear.

Yeah, something's definitely off on your broom. Reckon you should go see a teacher for it, maybe Donoghue, seeing as he's your DADA professor.
