Azurcrest??? No, more like...
AZURBEST TEAM EVER!!!!
OK OK I know you were all being SUPER COOL and FLYING LIKE TOTAL BADASSES, so lemme give you the ON THE GROUND VIEW of how you all did (hope you don't mind, Captain Gray!!!!): you were awesome. Jefferson, Levi and Jaime were awesome and also the most handsome Chasers out there obv. Ree and Sofia were extra awesome and totally terrifying, like I would not want to be the one you're aiming for (or would I??? 😘). Dru was extremely awesome, like a lone gunslinger standing in a hostile desert road at dawn, just her versus a horde of bandits and nothing but a pair of six-shooters at her side, which in this metaphor is like the Quaffle's the bandits (or bandit singular? just like one really persistent bandit???) and her six-shooters are... her hands? OK so, that got away from me. And LAST but NEVER LEAST is our astounding, beautiful, talented, Amazon-like in both stature and achievement, CAPTAIN GRAY!!!!! That was a good catch. That was such a good catch, just like the way you've CAPTURED MY HEART. 💖

I got like half the game on video if anyone wants to see it later. My batteries ran out so I kinda lost that AMAZING SNITCH SNATCH but next time, I'll be prepared I swear!!!

Is there gonna be a party? We HAVE to party right???

[Cole]

Thanks for the origami, man!!! I kinda figured I wouldn't play (like if they were gonna put anyone in, it'd be Quinn for sure bc she's a badass) but I'm gonna treasure this thing forever. Like on my desk, which OK it's a really messy desk, so maybe I'll clean a corner of it for my COLE MOSS ORIGINAL. I swear this cool lil bird looks like it's gonna FLY OFF at any minute.

Sorry your house lost tho but they played REALLY GOOD. Did you go to the game????

I can honestly say I'm speechless.

But hell yes to the party.

[stclair]

That's my response EVERY TIME I SEE YOU FLY, CAPTAIN GRAY. 💕

How do parties happen? I can't believe I've been in Azurcrest for a whole year and I don't know the answer to this yet, but it's like, I just go out my door sometimes, and we're already partying.

[unregrettable]

And yet somehow you found the words to describe how you felt.

I find it's usually enough to yell "PARTY?" at the top of my voice. But most of the time it's not necessary: in Azurcrest the party never stops.

[gdilevi]

PARTY PARTY PARTY PARTY

[unregrettable]

PARTY

[riledup]

PARTY!!!

[unregrettable]

That charm should come with a seizure warning.

[stclair]

I'm going to exhaust the thesaurus soon. There's only so many ways I can call you excellent, gifted, brilliant and gorgeous.

It's like our Marco Polo, except both the Marco and the Polo is just PARTY. PARTY? PARTY!!!!

[unregrettable]

Think outside the thesaurus, Micah. I know you're more original than that.

Pretty much!

[indiefolk]

We need to celebrate your win. First game of the year, first victory... this has to be a serious toast. You have earned yourself a spectacular party.

[unregrettable]

We've done all the hard work, I think we can leave it to the rest of Azurcrest to throw us that spectacular party.

[meerfar.insanejournal.com]

You are such a nerd.

[stclair]

And you love me, my charming Charlotte.

I'm on the team now!! I have to REPRESENT.

[meerfar.insanejournal.com]

Gross. Love you too.

Right. I forget. Just a reservest.

Micah
That's hot.

[stclair]

Hey, reserve is the FIRST STEP. How many people are awesome to get on the team RIGHT AWAY without having to do reserve time? OK like a few people but that's not the point. You know Quidditch isn't my passion. Film is my passion.

[Charlotte]
Yes. I know. But OK, what do you mean here: me being an athlete or me being a nerd? WHAT'S YOUR TYPE, CHAR?

[meerfar.insanejournal.com]

Right. Quidditch is a secondary love.

[Micah]
Am I NOT allowed choices and options Micah. CAN I NOT like both the nerd you and the athlete you. GOSH! don't question my love OR YOU WILL PUSH ME AWAY MICAH. DO YOU WANT THAT HUH DO YOU?

[gdilevi]

Okay, but who was the most handsome Chaser?

[stclair]

Now, Jefferson is in my cabin, and if there's ONLY ONE law I live by, it's cabin solidarity. Your roommates are your BROTHERS. Like if you took BROS BEFORE [SOCIALLY OUTDATED WORD] but in this case the [SOCIALLY OUTDATED WORD] weren't just something sexist but EVERYONE, because these are the guys who are going to have your back when the Killer of Lake Gooseberry finally comes for us all (which he's totally going to do like probably this year since EVERYONE SAW HIS BOAT).

HA HA I'M JK of course it's you, Levi. Sometimes I put my hands under my chin during mealtimes and spend a solid minute thinking about how dreamy you are.

[gdilevi]

Only a minute? I need to up my game.

TELL ME ALL ABOUT YOUR KoLG THEORIES THOUGH.

[stclair]

There's only ONE HOUR for dinner and too many HOT PEOPLE in this school. I need to strategize if I want to give the chinhands to everyone who deserves it.

I mean, this is a classic movie trope, right? Vicious killer stalks hormonal teens at idyllic summer camp. But I've GOT A THEORY that stuff which is tropes for muggles has its history in FOR REAL WIZARDING SHIT (e.g. vampires, I don't need to tell you about vampires), so OK maybe at a muggle summer camp this is like a CHILDREN'S BEDTIME STORY, but at wizard not-summer camp it's WELCOME TO MURDER TOWN. Like let's talk power of belief, man. If enough of us magical teens believe (and ~I WANT TO BELIEVE~) then maybe our TOTALLY HAUNTED WOODS might go, hey. Hey. Bullied-teen-turned-axe-murderer is a thing these kids want.

Also these things are always a morality tale so if anyone's getting taken out first, you know it's Azurcrest. Those stories claim to be about BULLYING but it's really always about TEENAGERS ARE SHALLOW AND HAVE TOO MUCH FUN.

[gdilevi]

I KNOW I KNOW I KNOW, I can't fault you for that.

Alright, I'm going to take your theory and stick it in my back pocket for later. You're absolutely right, Azurcrest is a prime target for a spooky axe murderer ghost. It's always the loose partier types who are offed first. HOWEVER, do you think Monster/Supernatural enthusiasts like us have a higher or lower chance of surviving?

[bambae]

Micah's a compulsive liar. Jaime was obviously the most handsome chaser.

[gdilevi]

You spelled Levi wrong. It's only four letters, c'mon.

[bambae]

No. I spelt jaime correctly.

[gdilevi]

L-E-V-I. Now you try.

[bambae]

I cannot. My heart belongs to another.

Jaime.

Micah/Cole

[colemoss]

i'm glad you like him. i didn't think to, but i bet we could charm him to fly? but i guess he wouldn't stay on your desk after that.

it's not a big deal. everyone played well (i assume?) and at least we lost to a friend-house instead of a rival-house. i went and sat with ravi and the others, so it was fun anyway.

congratulations too! (i almost forgot that!)

Micah/Cole

[stclair]

Yeah yeah no this is TOTALLY COOL. I mean if he wanted to fly away, I'd have to set him free, you know? It's bad enough that SOCIETY keeps trying to FIT US INTO BOXES, so I don't believe in keeping any birds caged, FIGURATIVELY OR LITERALLY.

Man, is there anyone who isn't a FRIEND-HOUSE to Ribbonfin tho? Everyone loves you guys, I swear, even Coppertale, and they don't like anyone. But yeah thanks Cole!!!!! I'd LOVE to play this year but not if it means someone's gotta get hurt or sick, you know? So for now I'm just TOTALLY JAZZED that my team won anyway.

OH YEAH and I hope it's all cool in Ribbonfin too. I dunno if you guys are the "party when you lose" types.

Re: Micah/Cole

[colemoss]

yeah. if he were alive(ish?), caging him would seem sort of mean. leonora gets really mad if i forget to leave the window open for her for one night and the cabin's way bigger than a bird cage.

that does make it hard to hope. does anyone ever just sit out by choice because they're busy or hung over or something? maybe then! even if you don't play this year, you'll be a shoo-in for next year i bet.

i don't know either? i missed most of the games last year, so i'm not sure. we'll see?? if we do, though, i don't think i'll go.

[magitechnically]

I think I got a photo of the catch! I don't know if you can stick that together with your muggle camera thingy or not.

Ree was super awesome!!! It was such a fun game to watch!

[riledup]

I'M SO AZUR-IMPRESSED!!!

[notacad.insanejournal.com]

None of that was at all overboard...

[nobletoo]

Ooh, like a Quidditch Western?

That would make for a great mini-comic. Like - would the broom double as a Winchester? Or it could convert into one - like one of those really fancy canes with the swords in - but with a rifle? Be kind of be dangerous to fly on, though.

[evercreep.insanejournal.com]

As usual, Ribbonfin's performance was overall superior. But Azurcrest never lacks enthusiasm. You're [...] very supportive of your team.
