[Following this.]

[Warded to Quinn]

So, you've already seen, but I will be on the sidelines again this year. I was optimistic, but Mufferaw was not.

[Warded to Leo]

I know that Quidditch is keeping you very busy right now, but after Sunday ~~maybe~~ we should do something together.

Was he the one that crossed it out, or did he send you back to make you do it yourself?

He saw I signed up, and we had to [...] talk about it. I was the one who crossed it out. It was a walk of shame thankfully no one was there to see.

Ouch, and he doesn't take his "lessons" lightly. ~~I got one about~~ If you want some Purpose while spectating, can I convince you to consider charm duty? It's helpful to have someone keep an eye on the freezing charms during the game, especially if there's an injury and the new players panic. My neck's kind of on the line this season so I'd prefer to have somebody I trust in charge of keeping us safe.

~~I don't need you to~~

[...]

I can do that. It will be much better than sitting on the sidelines again like everyone's cheerleader. No offense to cheerleaders, but I am not on the cheer team for a reason.

Is it because the orange pom-poms clash with your complexion? I bet it's because the orange pom-poms clash with your complexion.

And I know that this is none of my business ~~anymore~~, but [...] is life with the knee more of the same?

I do look very bad in orange. It is the only thing I dislike about Coppertale. Well, that and the unstable dynamic in my cabin, but I accept that for what it is.

Ah, más o menos. ~~It's fine. I can practically feel you worrying, and you don't~~ [...] After the last procedure the Healers thought it was going to heal better than it did. It probably will never get any better than it is now. Maybe less pain, but it won't go back to normal. I thought that I might as well play hockey, because why baby it anymore, right? But Mufferaw had some things to say about that. Most of my friends probably would have, too.

In your cabin's defense it's actually only 40% unstable; that 40% just happens to be very, very loud. And opinionated. And wrong most of the time. ... I love you guys but I still have no idea how you deal with it 24/7 without the gorious catharsis provided by ultra-violent sports.

Well. That's shit. As excited as I would have been to finally get you out for a "real" game, I think you're right. Park would probably have thrown you over his shoulder and hauled you off the ice.

Usually it's not so bad, but I would never give Robin or Chris the opportunity to legally hit me after I've angered them.

That sounds like my nightmare. So I will stand on the sidelines, keep the lake frozen, and commend you on how far Chris slid across the ice after you hit him.

Damn. You even beat me to asking. We should.

I can be impatient, I hope you don't mind. I do like knowing we had the same thought, though.

You're impatient or I'm slow. I've been thinking about it since the great fever detour.
Sunday night, either way it goes? I won't cry on you if we lose.

I would not expect you to. Sunday night would be perfect, and I will be very impressed by you either way it goes.

And I will be cheering for you, of course.

Let me earn you being impressed.
Tempting to make it as short as we can now. Tell Dahlia to catch the snitch quickly, we're on a schedule.

I withdraw my praise, to be given back when you earn it. However, long Dahlia takes, it will be worth waiting. Just make sure you are focused on the game and not what comes after.

See. Now there's two things to work for.
Don't worry. You're not that distracting.

But I am a little distracting, right?

Maybe a little.

Good. See you after the game, Captain.

See you.
