LEO || Entry Seven (FORWARD DATED TO SUNDAY EVENING)

[glaringprotego]

I'd like to thank my house for their support and Sal for not killing himself with his bat, truly dear, Beater? You were not up to that.

[Pasted here is a very silly photo of Dierdre holding the Snitch with her arm slung around Sal's shoulders, grinning and letting the Snitch fly from her fingertips just to catch it again. Sal appears to be slightly bloodied but happy for his wife, waving.]

I'd forgotten how thrilling Quidditch is. I should have been a Seeker instead of a Chaser when I was in school.

I wish the best to Professor Matteris. I trust Dolores will take the very best care of her until she can return to her classes.

Congratulations.

[glaringprotego]

Thank you. I'd missed Quidditch.

Sybille is doing alright, yes? It looked like a nasty blow.

[flings]

You took home the gold, Professor. Well-played.

[wwistful]

I can't say it brought me back many fond memories, but I'd never really endeared myself to losing.

I imagine she'll want me to tell you she's fine, but she's certainly seen better days.

[glaringprotego]

Well tell I wish her the best. I'll be by to see her soon.

Losing is never ideal but not everyone can win.

[glaringprotego]

Thank you Porrim. A win for both our houses, hmn?

[flings]

Indeed. And quite the match to watch, as well.

[There are a few inkblots.

He doesn't want to do this. He really just wants to retreat away from everyone right now and just. Ignore everything. But he knows he made a huge mistake punching Rhys like that. It made him look like a huge sore loser. Which... he was, sort of. But his actions were shameful and he knows he needs to cover them up as best he can. Which is why, as hard as this is for him, he manages to get out a few words after several more inkblots.]

You played a good game. Congrats, Madame Pussypants.

[di_intraining]

Fantastic play Professor! You were bloody brilliant!

[The strike comes a few seconds later.]

Sorry! Didn't mean to swear, but you were really amazing on the pitch.

[seeringlight]

Congratulations Professor. It was an exciting match, to say the least!

[wwistful]

I'll be sure to when she wakes up.

Obviously. There isn't any joy in winning if it isn't due to the fact that you've proven yourself better than someone else.

strikeout is easy to read

[bubblingover]

Congratulations Professor!!

You seriously did everyone in t)(e )(ouse proud, you )(ad suc)( a great game!!

Do we get to )(ave a party?

[accioleggings]

BEATER SEEMED LIKE A FUN IDEA AT THE TIME?
I KNOW I'VE SAID IT PLENTY OF TIMES SINCE THE MATCH BUT CONGRATULATIONS, SWEETHEART.

[glaringprotego]

I'm glad you enjoyed it.

[glaringprotego]

Thank you Mister Sunglasses

[FILTERED]

Are you alright?

[glaringprotego]

I'll allow it this once. In the celebration. Thank you for the compliments, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

[glaringprotego]

Exciting is good word for it. I'm a little disappointed we didn't get a few more goals before I found the snitch. A longer game would have b33n more fun for everyone else.

strikeout is easy to read

[glaringprotego]

I'm happy to please and make our our house proud!

Maybe a small one.

[glaringprotego]

Thank you love <3
I wish you'd consulted me before you signed up. Announcers very rarely make good beaters <3

Not that I've met another who made the switch.

[glaringprotego]

Well of course but I wouldn't presume to say I'm any better than another. Luck is a high influence for Seekers.

[moirailcompass]

:33 < you were amazing out there mom!!

[Yes, someone is being a little fangirl. Eee! We know where Nepeta got it from now]

[itsintheblood]

I should thank you for catching that fast, I wasn't exactly a great keeper.

[glaringprotego]

H33 I had to set a good example fur you after all!

[glaringprotego]

You were fine. Really. They just had good Chasers. That's all!

[wwistful]

Fair point, though I think skill and speed play a large part.
I wasn't able to observe, obviously, but I'd heard you were rather spectacular.

[itsintheblood]

You're generous, thank you. You still did well, it takes a lot to notice the snitch.

[seeringlight]

Perhaps next time. We must save all out excitement for the upcoming year.
I think the students are even more excited for the season to go underway.
