[There are a lot of ink blots and crossed out starts to this entry. Coraline seems to want to say something but isn't quite sure how to even begin.]

Oh forget it. I'm not even going to bother commenting on the match.

filtered to Ravenclaw Quidditch team.

I'm starting to think I'm cursed or something guys. I seriously practiced that move a zillion freaking times. I could do it in my freaking sleep. I can't believe that I let something as stupid as the wind mess me up.

I'm sorry guys. I bet you're all pretty disappointed in me aren't you?

Oh, Coraline, sweetheart, don't. That wasn't your fault at all. Okay? Besides that, you played the better match for the vast majority of it. Promise.

[speterman]

You did brilliant, okay? It was still a fun game. :)

Hey, it happens. Especially when you're playing a game on a flying broom.

How old is that broom again? Maybe I should look at it, see if I can work some better stabilisation into it?

You played a good game out there, it's out first game of the season. At least now we know how all the other teams play now.

It's a little over a year old. I earned the money for it and bought it myself. I guess it couldn't hurt to have it looked at though.

...I suppose that's a good way of looking at it.

[its_cor_aline]

Yeah..it was good to be out there again at least.

[its_cor_aline]

Thanks Bonnie. I just felt so sure of myself and then to be tossed on my butt by the stupid wind of all things! Ugh..so humiliating.

Well if you went to all the trouble of earning it yourself, then I have to have a look at it so it keeps you proud of it.

There's always a silver lining to things. And silvers always more interesting to look at, when you think about it.

[strongestoftheturks]

Tough.

Better luck next time.

Yeah, I really don't want to give it up..it means a lot to me you know?

I guess..our entrance was cooler at least.

[its_cor_aline]

At least I can take comfort in knowing we played well and honorably.

[strongestoftheturks]

No foul called. Badgers played a dangerous game. It worked though.

Learn to lose better.

Yeah, no. I guess I can understand that. I promise I'll treat it well when I look at it.

Of course our entrance was cooler. No one else could have pulled it off like we did.

Thanks, I appreciate that. I'll give you free reign to do whatever you think is necessary. I trust you!

Nope!

[its_cor_aline]

True that fouls weren't called but its kind of one of those unspoken things. Going right for the face is a bit dirty since that could seriously injure someone.
If that Bludger had hit Bonnie in the head it could have done an awful lot worse than just knocking her off her broom..it could have split her skull open.

I lose just fine. Sure, I'm disappointed that goes without saying. Who wouldn't be? It just means we'll have to step it up for next time.

[strongestoftheturks]

Wizards get hurt all the time in Quidditch. Broken bones. Fall of a broom from that high, you could still get your cracked skull. Even die. You know the game. Injuries aren't a big thing.

You want to lose fine? Then stop whining about a team that worked hard and played fair. It's not their fault your Beaters weren't around.

[its_cor_aline]

Why not aim for the center of mass instead of the face though? There's less physical damage and it's just as effective.

I have no doubt they worked hard. I know Greg put them through tons of practice and I respect him a LOT. He's an awesome guy.
Everyone will always have an opinion and a gripe about something in sports.
Seriously dude..I'm not taking it personally..this is just my view.

Good to know I'm trusted, just drop it off at my dorm at the end of the day. And I'll get to work on it.
