I've told a couple of you this, but after talking through some things with a very supportive and insightful friend (thank you, Rafael), I've decided to go to culinary school after graduation. So [...] I'd like to get more practice. I'm going to be completely Type A about this and put a schedule together for myself, probably focusing on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

If anyone's willing to be a taste tester for me from time to time, let me know? I'd appreciate the help and I'd really value honest opinions about the taste and the aesthetics and all of that, so please don't worry about hurting my feelings or anything. I'm tougher than I look (and sound and act, etc.), I promise.

Do you remember last month when we talked about the Anonymous Post? And you said that you wanted to put in the effort to make the conversations more positive and do more about the bullying? During our prefect meeting yesterday, a lot of people felt the same way. I think, whatever you decide to do on Saturday, you'll have the support of the prefects. I just wanted you to know that.

Hopefully, it'll make a difference.

Okay, but

Chris, listen.

I know during Quidditch, you're either playing or preoccupied with watching the game. But if you look down at the pitch, you'll see the most beautiful sight:

Cecil in his cheerleading uniform.

I'll look down next game.

Guys. That's enough, isn't it?

Okayyyyyy, sorry.

[Cecil]

Dat ass tho.

[Chris]

Dat ass tho.

I mean I'll look down next game, because I'm assuming he'll be on the pitch first when I knock your ass off your broom.

I'll appreciate his cheerleading uniform while I'm appreciating my handiwork.

Can you try to aim to knock me off my broom around where the cheerleaders are gathered? I want a dramatic scene where I am bleeding out in Cecil's strong arms.

If you can even hit me.

It's a weird situation for you.

I can knock your ass off your broom.

But knocking you off close to the cheerleaders is probably a dream you're gonna have to try for.

But that could also give Cecil a heart attack. For some reason, I'm not sure he likes you in pain. I don't understand it, but I'm pretty he's not a fan.

No, no, no, Cecil's not a depraved creature like we are. He doesn't like seeing me in pain, but he likes taking care of me. Even after Mufferaw's patched me up, assuming I'm not dead, Cecil will be fussing over me for days. I think some part of him likes feeling needed and boy can I turn into the neediest fucker. I'm absolutely desperate for his attention 24/7.

But. I'm working my ass off to be scouted for professionals and getting knocked off my broom might compromise that. I recognize I have no other marketable skills beyond my athleticism and the sexy nurse fantasy is trumped by the sexy financial stability fantasy. I can probably just ask him to play nurse anyway.

So, real talk, my ass is staying on this broom.

Sorry dude

But I'm looking to get scouted too and smashing faces is my only marketable skill.

So somebody's getting their face smashed in

Probably could be Jaime though.

What? Seriously? I thought you weren't going for professionals. Are you gonna try out for the Gooseberry vs Ilvermorny team too?

I'm all for putting on a good show so I'm not telling you to not go after me, but I'm just saying I'm not going to give in to my masochistic tendencies just so I can be nursed back to health. If you went for Jaime, his jawline's already uneven so maybe try to hit him from his left side to straighten it out.

Changed my mind. I figured without prerequisites going out for pro hockey is gonna be near impossible. But I already got prerequisites for quidditch. We won the cup last year and there's gonna be scouts this time. So unless I totally shit the bed, I could have a shot. So yeah I'm trying out for that team too.

Kinda just figured I'm not gonna be able to find a more legally violent job than this one. And I like smashing faces in. So I kinda just wanna keep doing it

If this works out for us though, you get to put on a show and get nursed back to health. But I'm not zeroing in on just you this time. I'm gonna make this bloody.

I wanna play on the same team as you so I really hope you get it. I think Sophia and Ree are both trying out, but I don't think they're too serious about it. It's not like they're seniors and this is their last chance before graduation or anything. It's not like their future is depending on getting onto this team in order to stand out among the scouts.

I'm glad you're trying out and I'm glad you're going out for professionals. I've been practicing solo, but do you want to practice together? You practice your hits, I'll practice my dodging. We'd just need a spotter or two.

I swear to fucking God if I don't make this team, I'm going to have a mental breakdown.

I bet Fiori's trying out. Because it's a competition.

[...] ~~Okay no pressure that's totally cool our entire futures depending on it isn't actually a thought I~~

Okay dude I'm only agreeing to this because I've never practiced with anybody outside of coppertale and I already know how they play so it doesn't help and I really wanna make the team

But yeah we should practice and it better not get back to Sy because he might actually try to break my legs for fraternizing with the enemy this close to the game and that probably won't make anything awkward for Rosy since she just broke my nose and then took a nap with me but I don't need the distraction of broken legs.

But you'll make the team. So you can save your mental break down for another day.

I mean you better. I bet on you in the poll.

Secret's safe with me. I don't think Etta will care, but I don't want anyone else knowing and having the same idea of squeezing in extra practices and taking up time slots on the pitch. I want them to lose. I want us to win.

I have a rule of not waking up before noon unless I have to so I've been practicing at night. I've memorized your schedule from lowkey stalking you earlier in the year and you usually have classes during my free periods and I have classes during yours. So our best bet if we don't want to get caught is after dinner. It'll be dark, nobody will be there, and nobody will have booked it. The pitch closes at 9pm.

It also opens at 6am. I want this badly enough that I'm willing to sacrifice sleeping in. We also run the risk of other people being there and HOGGING OUR PITCH since a lot of athletic types are batshit crazy and wake up at ungodly hours for some reason.

Okay we can do this at night. Practicing in the dark'll help my aim and help your dodging. But tomorrow I only have one class and you only got two classes after lunch so we have a few free periods we can use. I mean most of those are before noon. But it's not six am

Uhhhhh. I get this is awkward and you can tell me to back off but...

Are you okay?

Sorry Honeychurch
