Blah blah blah yeah everyone's already covered everything about this Snow guy. He's a sack of shit, etc.

I'm still pissed off that I got put on the fucking Quidditch team. I mean seriously, what the hell? I don't have time to play Quidditch. It's so stupid!

And it's not going to calm me down or whatever like they said it will. The idea is just pissing me off even more.

What's it take to get kicked off the team?

Why did you tryout then?

[cantfightthisfire]

They made me, do you think I would've otherwise?

[rule_britannia]

You might at least try it, you know.

Who knows, you might actually enjoy yourself.

[cantstarvethisfire]

Someone forced you to do something you didn't want to do?

[cantfightthisfire]

Shut up.

[cantfightthisfire]

Why would I enjoy it?

I didn't even get beater, I can't hit people with a bat.

we need to be careful with the prank planning from now on.

You really think this guy would screw up my plans for screwing with my mom? It's not even any of his goddamn business.

[brothor]

It is on.

[rule_britannia]

Er.

You're not supposed to hit people with the bat.

he's here because of something that happened at camp!
why wouldn't he care about me helping you with your mum?

[cantfightthisfire]

... What're you supposed to do with it then?

filtered

[cantfightthisfire]

Because my mom has nothing to do with camp? She's a muggle. She's probably the most muggley bitch in the whole world. He's only worried about dark magic.

[cantfightthisfire]

Oh go somewhere else with that bullshit, I don't care.

[rule_britannia]

Smack the large, angry Bludgers flying around the pitch away from our players.

Which position did you end up with?

[dropitlikeitshawk]

You could always turn down the offer, ya know? It ain't like they're gonna tie you to a broom and make you play.

he's with the ministry, and looking for an excuse to give us shit.
i don't trust him.
we should careful just in case.

[brothor]

You say that now, and then you will play your first game and realise that you actually love it.

And then you will lose because Gryffindor is going to beat Slytherin.

[cantstarvethisfire]

You'll live. It's not like we do pep rally's.

[heartwrenching]

In my personal experience, it takes beating around fifteen people with a table leg and then using your own bloodied, bruised-knuckle fists once said table leg splinters and cracks and crumbles asunder from overuse. In a public, family-friendly sporting event, of course - setting is important, you can't do this kind of stuff in a VOID. I mean, geez, how would that even work!? And oh yeah, then getting tossed under the all-seeing, all-scowling, all-beady little accusatory eyes of the Wizengamot for your hard work!!

Perhaps there are other means to find oneself so sadly, sadly, sadly cast out of a Quidditch team, but the above applies to me at least.

[notthebee2]

lmao.

[cantfightthisfire]

If you had pep rally's then I would break every broom in this school.

[cantfightthisfire]

So do you at least hit the balls at the other players?

Keeper, which is kind of a load of bullshit.

[cantfightthisfire]

Fine, whatever. But he needs to mind his own business.

What d'you suggest we do to keep him off our nuts?

[cantfightthisfire]

The chances of that happening are about the same as Matteris eloping with Snow.

[cantfightthisfire]

No, I can't. They said I have to play or I'd be in a lot of trouble. It was heavily implied that I'd get expelled if I refused, because of my temper or whatever.

[cantfightthisfire]

[Inkblots.

Her true love, she's found him.

Only not really, but daaaamn.]

I'll be back, I'm going to find a table so I can saw off its leg.

[heartwrenching]

Saws!! It's all back and forth and back and forth and backandforthandbackandforth!! Which, yes, sounds very appealing, but it just doesn't have the same - what is it? atmosphere - as ripping a table leg off with your own hands.

What's got me all curious, what's set my brain aflame with a thousand stampeding question marks and general lack of understanding, is why you'd wanna get off the Quidditch team on purpose.

[cantstarvethisfire]

That implies there would be any brooms to break after I was done breaking them.

[bonafide_divinity]

Frankly, Marina, I would be furious if it were me.

Which is precisely why I didn't try out for the Quidditch team.

[speterman]

Isn't that just a little counterintuitive to me, joining something to quell your temper only to get pissed off about it.

[dropitlikeitshawk]

I think Quidditch is the last thing you should be doin for your temper.

[rule_britannia]

Yes, that's the point.

Pity. You would have made a fantastic Beater.

I'll be on the team as well.

we can continue to talk over the journals, just filter the posts and do it from our common rooms.
also we should start meeting in the secret passages.
if we find one that's not very used, even better.

Stranger things have happened!
