 Commentary Baguette | there is no D in my name | TRAITORclaw | Queenie of Narnia
Yes, of course she saw the snitch - after she handed the mic away - but she was also hungry and needed some snacks. So she nommed on her sugar quill as she intently watched the Seekers - not too disappointed when Alec caught it instead. She liked Dylan, of course, and a part of her wanted him to win his last game, but Slytherin didn't need to get too many points either. They needed to stay low enough for Gryffindor to catch up and WIN in their next game. Because Penelope WANTED that cup, and no one would convince her otherwise that Gryffindor didn't have a chance - because they DID. They could do it.
So she continued to watch as the game went on, her eyes mostly focused on her boyfriend the whole time. He was doing great, yeah? No scoring yet, but he didn't need to to still do well. He was always getting better at this whole thing, so she was proud, even if he still hated playing.
ANOTHER SNITCH. That was the only thing that managed to pull her focus to something else, and she watched intently as Alec caught it. Nice. But Dylan was good, so it was still anyone's game.
Her turn.
"Tempus throws the Quaffle back into play, and Wheatborn gets it. She flies around Stark and passes it off to Yarborough before Odessa can steal it. He makes it to the middle of the pitch - and then THROWS it to Elisabeth-Potter over Kinsley's head. He takes it down the pitch - throws - SCORE! Hudson just misses!
"She flies down to grab it and throw it back into play. Stark catches it nicely and flies ahead a bit and makes a quick pass to Kinsley who zooms around a defensive Wheatborn and Yarborough. Elisabeth-Potter is after him, and the Quaffle is thrown to Odessa. He- Looks like the Beaters are after a bludger!" The EEEEEEEEEEEE could be heard all over the stadium.
"Ferrier and Bishop are both heading for one - but Ferrier's faster and she SMACKS it right at Bishop! Ouch! But she seems okay - and Odessa makes a goal for Slytherin! Score's 120 to 90, Hufflepuffs in the lead."
A flash of gold by Hufflepuff goal hoops...
"Seekers have spotted the snitch! They off like lightning after it, they're neck and neck, reeeeaching out for it... Tempus dives out of the way as they veer off - Montmorency's got it! Second snitch for Slytherin!" Merlin, this game was getting SO close...
"Quaffle's being tossed back and forth between Wheatborn and Yarborough, clearly trying to tire out the Slytherin Chasers. They charge at Wheatborn when Yarborough has it - don't think it'd be good to pass it back - oh! He tosses it to Elisabeth-Potter who's right by the hoops - he raises his arm - and SCORES! Nice shot!
"Hudson throws it back into play. Kinsley's caught it this time and he flies above the in-coming Hufflepuffs - he makes a nice pass to Stark who's flying just below him. He takes it down a ways and then it's off to Odessa by the hoops, ready to score - but Tempus smacks the Quaffle away with his broom! Score's now 140 to 130, Slytherin in the lead."
Ugh, she needed a break. The mic was handed over to Aidan and the sugar quill was picked up again, her eyes back on Ascanius.
