 Commentary Baguette | there is no D in my name | TRAITORclaw | Queenie of Narnia
Hot chocolate and ice cream. She grinned. It WAS a good combination. Even Ascanius would probably approve since it wasn't "gross" like her yogurt tacos. He still wouldn't get over them. Heh.
But anyway. She sipped on her hot chocolate a little and then grabbed a sugar quill as she watched the game and listened to Aidan's commentary. Since she didn't have to worry about catching a snitch - which seemed to be hiding somewhere anyway - her eyes followed Ascanius the whole time as he flew around. It was nice to get a chance to just watch sometimes, y'know? Even if she definitely preferred playing to watching.
And she was right about it being a good game. Very evenly matched so far. But then Aidan's voice stopped so she glanced over and- Oh, it was her turn. She'd gotten so focused on the match she'd forgotten for a moment. Taking the mic with a smile, she set her sugar quill back in its wrapper and leaned forward to get a better view.
"Okay, Hudson throws the Quaffle back into play, and it's caught by Stark." BEAM. "He flies away from the hoops a bit and then tosses it to Kinsley who zooms forward, dodging the Hufflepuff Chasers trying to block him. Yarborough tries to steal but Kinsley's too quick and he tosses it to an open Odessa. Odessa's nearing the hoops - he shoots - but Tempus makes a nice save! Seems he recovered well from that bludger!" Talented little firstie, wasn't he? And...was he saying something? Something about "Badger Boom!"
Well okay then.
Was that a glint of gold over there above the stands? Penelope squinted at it for a moment, but then forced herself to look back at the Quaffle.
"Tempus throws the Quaffle back into play and- OH SEEKERS SPOTTED THE SNITCH!!" She KNEW that gold seemed familiar!
"Summers and Montmorency are zooming towards the snitch from opposite ends of the pitch! Are they gonna crash or- No, the snitch suddenly flies to the middle and they turn quickly to follow! They're catching up to it - Summers - no, Mont- Sum- MONTMORENCY HAS IT! He's caught the first snitch for Slytherin!" Wooooooo and stuff.
"Play continues and Yarborough has the Quaffle. He flies forward and his path is blocked by Odessa. He makes a quick pass to Wheatborn but is blocked by Stark and Kinsley. Elisabeth-Potter-" Merlin's beard his name was LONG. "-flies by her and catches a nice quick pass from her, flying forward before the Snakes react. He reaches the hoops - shoots - SCORES! Another goal for Hufflepuff!
"Hudson throws it back into play and its caught by Odessa. Badgers charge at him but he passes to Stark before they reach him. They start to change direction but Stark passes off to Kinsley, and he zooms to the hoops again."
The distinct EEEEEEEEEEE of a bludger was suddenly heard - not flying anywhere near a player yet, but it looked like Ferrier was going after it.
"Ferrier goes after the bludger and the others fly after her. She raises her bat and - oh! Looks like the bludger was a little too fast, and Captain Bishop got in there to block with her bat! Good save, there." And no injuries.
"Kinsley shoots at the hoops - but it flies right by the right one! No score. Score is 60 to 10, Slytherin in the lead."
WHEW. She needed a sugar quill.
