GRYFFINDOR QUIDDITCH MINGLE | OPEN

Who: The Gryffindor Quidditch team (and anyone else who would crash their prractices/get-togethers)
Where: The Quidditch Pitch
When: Oct 1st - 5th
Rating: PG, label if higher.
Summary: Log for the BEST TEAM IN THE SCHOOL.
The Story:

A. PRACTICE (SUNDAY)

[There's at least one proper organized practice, on Sunday morning before anyone heads off to Hogsmeade. James takes his position as captain with a great amount of pride, and he's always trying to come up with new plays, new strategies, and new ways to make their team the absolute best it can be. There's almost always a lot of building up his teammates and talking down the other teams, especially Slytherin.

At the end of the day though, the other teams don't matter as long as they do their best - because according to James, Gryffindor's best could beat anyone, even professional teams. You also probably have to endure terrible metaphors about how they're a pride (like a pride of lions), but he's so enthusiastic about it that it's hard to really fault him for it.

This particular practice, James brought along a few dozen pumpkin pasties and juice as something of an apology for having practice during Hogsmeade weekend. There's a match coming up and they need all the practice they can squeeze in!

B. PITCH (WHENEVER)

[Even when they don't have official practices, James tends to put in at least an hour of training in on his own, as long as no other teams have it. He tends to go in the morning before class, to wake himself up and tart his day.

Though...to be honest, he doesn't always practice daily, but lately he's felt the insatiable need to fly as much as he can. Eh. Maybe he's getting nostalgic in his last year.

Either way, he'll happily practice with anyone who turns up, in an even more informal practice setting.

C. WHEREVER (WHENEVER)

[Got something Quidditch-related in mind that you don't see here? Start your own thing and the team will surely flock to you!]

Depending on who we're playing anyway.

[Does anyone think James would be pro a big Hogsmeade weekend before a Slytherin Match?]

I'll even enlist Sirius to our cause. [Code for Rose will totally use this as an excuse to flirt with Sirius.]

'Enlist,' huh.

[Yeah. Yeah. She speaks Hathaway.]

Well, you can be pretty convincing.
littledhampir: ♫ It's electrifying wind me up and watch me go (Well when you put it like that.)

[This is one way to distract from her annoyance.]

I might have already suggested that if we do go to Hogsmeade, I'll let him buy me a Butterbeer. [Grin widening a little.] Just doing my part for the team and all.

How'd that suggestion go over?

[Teasing aside, James is a good guy. Jo would be willing to bet he went along with it just fine.]
littledhampir: ♫ When you're happy like a fool let it take you over (Happiness is a quip at the ready.)

[personal profile] littledhampir 2016-10-21 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
[...] He was a little more interested in what else I'd let him do but I think it's safe to say, he'll be on our side.

[Jo lets out a brief snort of laughter.]

Pass that one on to his girlfriend, I bet she'll get a kick out of it.
littledhampir: ♫ By the way, I never liked your face. (Does this look like a good time?)

[personal profile] littledhampir 2016-11-01 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Girlfriend. [This is not the face of somebody who saw that coming.] About as much of a one as I am.

[That kick may end up being aimed squarely at Sirius' groin however.]

[It occurs to Jo that she got her own wires crossed somewhere during this conversation, and she has to bite back a grin as she does so. Well, she could clarify after Rose expresses her displeasure with Sirius, but then they both might come after her.]

No, sorry, Sirius doesn't-- [Ha.] The look on your face, though.
