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!]

[ He can at least agree with her on that and he appreciates it. He asked, after all. ]
If I'm up against a Slytherin, that probably, definitely wouldn't help.
[ He admits it as they hover and then manages to shrug a shoulder with a little smile. ]
Guess I need to beg my mom for the newest Nimbus model.

They all cheat, anyway. They'll take advantage of any weakness they think they can exploit without getting caught.
[Her expression shifts as she offers him a sympathetic smile.]
Thinking of asking for an early Christmas present?
no subject
[ And if they don't, he'll double down for Christmas. ]
We're definitely not letting Slytherin win anything this season.
[ He can handle losing to the other houses. Just not them. ]
no subject
[Subtlety is not Jo's strong suit, but she's never really needed it to be. Being direct has always served her far better.]
Just Slytherin? The other teams are good this year, but you know we can do better than that. Quidditch champions, right? We'll all carry the House Cup to the common room together.
no subject
[ Though that's said with a grin; he loves it, and honestly he's not super competitive, plus he's a good sport, but he really loves winning and he loves the people on his team even more. He wants all of them as a team to win for Gryffindor. ]
no subject
[Her grin hitches wider as she does a slow loop around him, appraising.]
Well, from where I'm sitting, you're well on your way to being in top shape. Maybe we should see if we can sneak in a few extra practices in the mornings the next couple of weeks.
