 Right. So.

Ravenclaw team. This is for you.

We're going to be on the pitch Sunday for some practice, training, whatever you want to call it. Personally I'm going with boot camp.

I'm saying training camp because we're going to be on that pitch all day. From 9 till dinner, with a break for lunch. I'm going to see what I can do about getting us things to snack on while we're there.

We're going to run through plays that I've mocked up based on everyone's skills, tweaking and/or maintaining brooms, and general training.

This is how we're going to be doing things up until our first match. And when we win, I'll get Mercer's approval for a party for the tower.

And if I can find some not stupid team bonding things we'll do those too. But they're all looking stupid so far.

And no trying to back out, Parker. Wining matches is good for confidence.

Everyone else can show up if they like to cheer us on, and to watch for any of the houses trying to sneak a peak at what we're doing. Surprise is a great offensive strategy.

[When it comes to coming out on top, Tony can be a very serious boy.]

Don't bring your goats.

Aye aye Captain. I'll be there with bells on.


...only not literally.

[arrogantalloy]

Actually, bells are an interesting idea there. Well, not for you though.

[actuallyspeakslatin]

Really, this Sunday?

[arrogantalloy]

What's wrong with this Sunday?

[actuallyspeakslatin]

It's Hogsmeade this weekend.

[its_cor_aline]

Oh snap, what have I done?

Anyways, I'll bring snacks and all of my notes from the past few years.

[speterman]

I'm not going to.

To back out I mean.

[arrogantalloy]

So?

[Pause]

Oh, yeah, it's your first time there. Aren't you and parakeet doing everything on Saturday anyway?

[actuallyspeakslatin]

Don't call him parakeet.

[arrogantalloy]

Just an idea for a distraction technique. It might not work but, hey giving it a go never hurt.

That'll be great, and handy. Thanks.

[arrogantalloy]

Why not? It's cute and endearing.

[arrogantalloy]

Good, great. I'll see you there good and early then.

[actuallyspeakslatin]

It is not, there are more endearing things to call him.

[its_cor_aline]

It's a good idea. Maybe we should try some sensory deprivation techniques too. Trying to see in the rain can be pretty crappy.

No problem. Know the enemy and all that stuff.

[speterman]

Good and early. Right. :)

Also, future note, telling someone not to back out in front of the whole team generally isn't good for their confidence.

[arrogantalloy]

Like what?

[actuallyspeakslatin]

Like... Clint.

[arrogantalloy]

That's already on the books, but good thinking there.

[arrogantalloy]

It was just a reminder.

[doctorkishitani]

I probably won't be watching your training session, but I do wish you the best of luck!

[arrogantalloy]

Too much homework or are we getting funky with Pot Pie?

[arrogantalloy]

That's not a pet name or endearing.

You're not really good at this, are you?

[actuallyspeakslatin]

I could be good at making up names for people.

[arrogantalloy]

Oh yeah? Prove it.

Because I'm really having a hard time believing this.

[actuallyspeakslatin]

Well, you're...

Alright, fine. I don't do endearing pet names for people.
