Good morning GBHS. May your migraines be light and your regrets few.

Talented and handsome and beautiful and otherwise exceptional ladies and gents of the Ribbonfin and Coppertale quidditch and cheerleading teams, please do not forget to git on down to the photobooth of Azurcrest auteur, Micah St.Clair and make yourself a trading card.

I'll take a copy of each cuz like I'm pretty sure that these are going to be worth a lot of money someday??? And folks I have a future to worry about, I need some non-liquid assets for my portfolio. Promise I'm not putting together a creepy spank bank like that one Castillo found a while back, although if that's your joint, like, maybe get consent first but also you do you and find your happiness. ~~Okay wow I am getting way off topic I should stop~~

~~keep it together lewis~~

[...]

SO YEAH. CARDS. Good luck tomorrow.

[Ribbonfin Quidditch]

Pour one out for the brave souls who drank in our stead for the quidpong tournament last night. I think I almost got De Luca killed and I feel super bad.

So, like, anyway, I know I'm just Forever Reserve Lewis or whatever, but I was looking at the numbers and thinking, and we've really benefited this year from all the long, grueling games we've had. As much as it sucked sometimes, we're on top of the points bracket because of it. I compared averages and guys, honestly? Coppertale's chasers consistently outperform us and ~~Reid's just un-fucking-believable~~ their seeker is ~~unstoppable~~ [...] also a consistent overachiever and, my dudes and dudettes, it ain't a negligible difference. Their keeper's also weaker than Avery, though, so we have that advantage.

Maybe we should try to drag this one out? More points is better for the cup, anyway.

[...]

Obviously, like, if we go this route keeping Reid distracted and off the snitch is going to be super important.

I dunno. Thoughts?

[Warded to Reid]

Hey, good luck tomorrow. Looking forward to it. If I get in ~~every bludger I send your way is sent with love~~ I'll try to knock your block off. Promise.

[thx u to Manx for the math sorcery help with quid numbers]

You think I'm dangerous?

It's pretty hot.

No no no guys right now you're mortal enemies come on.

Finding your mortal enemy attractive is a time-honored tradition.

That's why I like Sy.

See! It's a real thing. Forbidden attraction blossoming from the seeds of pure hatred.

I don't hate the idea.

Neither do a large number of novelists. Be proud of your genre.

Shit.

I should go break a rule or something.

I'll come watch. I cannot be held responsible for anything that happens after.

You're like a good guy who doesn't do things like that.

[Xavier]

Want to break into an empty classroom and make out? Since we're forbidden enemies or whatever.

You're a terrible influence.

[Reid]
That is, actually, like, exactly how I wanted to spend my Saturday?? Lookin' forward to hashing out our differences, nemesis.

Now I know you like it.

[Xavier]
How do you feel about climbing? Because there's this window that's been left kind of half open on the second floor for a few days.

Bet it's still open.

I've been found out!

[Reid]
How do I feel about climbing? This deal keeps getting better and better. ~~I'm keeping you forever.~~ We're doing this.

I'm real fucking observant.

[Xavier]
Yeah. Cool. We're doing this.

Meet me at the bridge in an hour?

One of your best qualities, Sherlock.

[Reid]
Got it. I'll be there.
