2098 Quidditch World CupHeld from June - August, the pinnacle of the wizarding world’s most popular sport is underway! Legends will be born and hearts will be broken, but will it be England or India that claims the Cup?!
Country t-shirts? Colourful wigs to be appropriately patriotic? How about a flag for you, good sir? You haven't really experienced the World Cup until you've stopped by any of the numerous overpriced merchandise stands to get yourself a little something in support of your favourite teams. Doesn't matter which you frequent--despite the wild shouts that might swear otherwise--you'll likely be able to snag something from the country you're rooting for at almost any one of them. Can't find what you're looking for? Keep searching! At least one of the haphazardly strewn stands will have just what you're looking for at nearly exaggerated prices. The World Cup comes only every four years, why not live a little and set your galleons free.
Done shopping til your Gringotts account starts making more noise than a rabid fan? Hopefully not too done because placed ever so strategically between the merchandise stands, you'll find various food stalls selling both local and foreign cuisine.
Grab yourself a box of fish 'n chips, it's certainly all the rage with England making its way to the final. Try some Nan with spicy curry if that's more up your alley. Doesn't matter if you can't pronounce or have only heard the name of half the things being offered, break out your adventurous side. The stalls carry a wide variety of drinks as well. Everything from water to butterbeer to fizzy drinks but you won't find anything too strong out here.
Take a stroll, grab a few things and enjoy the World Cup!

Quidditch World Cup! Exciting!
Nico had always enjoyed the matches at Hogwarts and she was one of the loudest ones at the stands especially for Bel, who was her dormie and captain. But this was different! This was the world cup and if that wasn't exciting enough, then she didn't know what was. And even better because she was with Hawkleberry! Mercy wasn't around and that was fine, and Nico saw her cutest girlfriend so much during the summer already anyway.
But still, she was with Hawke and she had her arm looped around his as she tugged him towards one of the merchandise stands. "Look! More hats!" He knew what that meant, right?!

It was al a little overwhelming. Thank goodness Sachin was with him. Without him, Conley had the feeling he would be lost. Winnie would be all over the place and his father would have been complaining about the noise. He only wished he could be walking down the aisles holding Sachin’s hand, but as this technically fell under the definition as a work function, that went against the rules they had agreed upon. Instead he merely looked over at the man and smiled. ”I’m hungry. What would you recommend?” He wanted to try something from Sachin’s birth country.

This.. was only marginally fun. The excitement in the air was palpable and people seemed like they were having a good time, but his years in law enforcement prevented Benzi from being able to fully enjoy himself. Every person could be a polyjuiced criminal, every food item poisoned, it was far too easy to blend in with all this magic flying around. Hard to detect malicious intent.
Nevertheless, the off-the-job Auror tried his best to keep his paranoia at bay as he held on tightly to Emma's hand with his left, and tickling Clara's palm with his right.
"DADDY!! LOOK!!!!! THERE'S SMOKE COMING OUTTA THAT PERSON'S EARS!!!" Emma bellowed, pointing with abandon despite her father's continued insistence that pointing is rude. No one's even looking at her! Can't be rude if no one else notices, psht. She was HIGHKEY VERY ENERGETIC about today, having looked forward to it for THREE FOREVERS. She didn't much like having to hold Daddy's hand for all of it but he said as soon as they meet up with Grandma and Grandpa and Cobes he'll let her roam around freely.
It's still not fair, because Cobes was probably allowed to walk around on his own and he's not that much older than her! She's SEVEN, she's practically Hogwarts age now. "OOOH, CLARA!" Emma reached over to tug on her dad's friend's clothes, sufficiently distracted from continued pouting, "your hair matches the fire! Over there!" she pointed to - fine, fine, gestured, Daddy, gestured - at one of the stalls, where some person was cooking with a really big pot and there was FIRE in it. TOTALLY WICKED. "What does that taste like?? I wanna try it!"

Sachin’s eyes had been fixed on the tri-coloured flag that was India’s at one of the stands. He needed to get one of that for when India won so that he could wave it in Conley’s face. The thought made him want to laugh. In addition, the two had a bet going on where they’d be going for dinner was at stake. Not that it would matter as in the end, he’d have another happy dinner date with Conley. Still... he did want his team to win.
Hearing the man’s work, the Ambassador turned his attention away from the flag. “You’ve found the time to eat?’’ he teased. This was something between the two of them that he was always trying to make Conley eat on time. “Depends what you’re in the mood for but I’d highly recommend paneer and chili naan.’’

Hawke was actually enjoying his not date with the girl attached to his arm. Weirdly, he had missed her. It was a new feeling for him. He didn't usually have constant people in his life.
Especially girls that were strictly friends.
He laughed. "Yes. Gotta get more hats."

”You know me better than that,” Conley retorted to the eating comment. He turned distracted by a person walking by with a screaming kid. As they passed, he turned back around. ”You recommend the what’s a what?” he replied. He didn’t care what it was he ate as long as it was something new. ”Is it spicy?”
He caught Sachin looking at a flag and chuckled. He sometimes got excited like a kid in a candy store, but he had an inkling about what Sachin was thinking. ”You’re going to loose. And then you owe me a very expensive dinner.”

This Hugglypuff didn't care the slightest that Hawke took her out as his not date and she enjoyed his company all the time anyway so why not? And she liked getting to choose hats for him, even when she liked to make it seem like he chose the hat out of her suggestion. It was an entirely different thing to Nico, you see.
She would also like to point out that strictly best friends was a nice title too.
Nico beamed and wiggled her fingers at one of the hat vendors. "Are we rooting for England?" Was he rooting for England? Nico didn't even have a team preference. She was here mostly for fun, the experience, and souvenir shopping with her favourite Hawkleberry.

Hanna had taken a break from her very large family, gathered in the camp area. She loved them dearly, but they were getting loud and she needed to give her ears a rest. Besides, she was loving the warm weather. Heading around the food and merchandise stands, she thought about purchasing a beanie in the Norwegian team colours, and a small flag in the England colours - but the smell of the curry was making her mouth water. Turning towards the food stands, she decided to do food first, merch second.

All the noises, smells, lights, and people was getting a bit over whelming. She was a bit overwhelmed. She waved when she saw a familliar face. Well, she didn't rememeber her name sense they were in different faces but...
"Hey!" She called out.
---Caleb--
Caleb cringed.
"Oi, she probably can't hear you," he said.
He sighed when Skyler rolled her eyes. Did he recognize the girl she was waving st? Maybe. He'd reckon she was a second year when he was a seventh.

Could she say she was a ball of stress, yes, that was exactly what Victoria was. She wanted to enjoy the day, but being in charge of the day made her worry about the day that she was supposed to enjoy, but she was going to enjoy it and brought her entire family, which mean grandma duties too.
After sitting for a bit, Victoria got up and took Christian's hand telling him she'd buy him a treat at the concessions if he wanted. So they made their way down to the food area and she looked around for a menu. "What would you like sweetie? Gamma will get you anything you want." She was allowed to spoil her grandson of course. She knew her girls would probably want some food too, so she figured she'd buy everyone something.

Hawke looked between the hats deciding which hat looked better. (Yes, that was how he was deciding which team they were supporting.)
"Yup." he said picking up two of the hats. (Yes, he was getting them matching hats. Please don't Aww.) "We'll have to buy food too. And possibly jerseys." Going all out seemed like it would be fun.

While Hawkleberry was going through the hats, Nico was already digging through other souvenirs. She was half-tempted to grab a wig and try one on or maybe throw it over Hawke's head, but he had already picked two hats for England.
And of course, Nico giggled. "Awwwww!" It was inevitable. Sorry, not sorry, Hawke. Why wasn't anybody dating him? He was the absolute cutest! I mean, come on! "I like food! And I like matchy jerseys too." Nico liked matchy everything.

It was cooler than Kazimir had thought it would be, yet still warmer than he was used to with growing up in Russia. Not that he had stayed there for a while, with living and working in Madrid… but the bone-deep cold was something you didn’t forget. Not even after years of living in the gorgeous heat climates that Ariadne and he had done. “Are you warm enough?” The man asked Ariadne in easy Spanish.
Dr Ariadne Grahn. His wife and very much the best of him… Who, knowing her, very much wished to be on a broom instead of watching this match. Unfortunately, while he wished to help her with every dream, that wasn’t one he could do at this time. Which made him sad… but he had made a promise to make sure they were here (with good seats) to see all of the action first hand.
Stepping closer as he gently placed one hand on the base of her back, he gave her a lop-sided smile. “We should either have something to eat, or buy snacks for through the match.”and he needed to make sure he had enough water to see them through a long showdown. Wouldn’t do to run out mid-match.
Everything looked great, from the food to the merchandise and even the other Quidditch lovers. It seemed like the whole world was here- usually that sort of thing would leave Maxie a nervous, fidgety wreck- but not today. Now now. He was brimming with a different kind of nervous energy.
Love.
Love for the game.
Love for England.
Love for his family and their seats.
L O V E
and nothing - except maybe everything - could get in the way of these very positive feelings. The 12-nearly 13-year-old thought about his good mood as he perused through a sea of England's Finest Merchandise. He wanted a shirt, for sure. and a banner. and maybe some stickers, and maybe a a quaffle he could get the players to autograph later.
There was so much, and so little time. Maxie was electric.

Mia moved her way through the crowd until she found the line up of food and drinks. She was so hungry! She'd only just arrived last night and went straight to the game so she hadn't had a chance to eat. Everything smelled so good.
As she waited in line she eyed up the curry and naan. It smelled like the perfect meal to her. The closer the line got the better idea it seemed. She could even hear her stomach rumbling. She hoped no one else did.

Hawke nodded and picked up two jerseys. It didn't even bother him that he was about to get matching jerseys. It was just fun. He enjoyed hanging out with his little Hugglypuff. He just wouldn't admit that outloud -- that was a bit too sappy and sentimental for his style.
"How about these ones?" he asked. If she approved, he'd pay for them and then they'd grab some food.

Lenora still couldn’t believe it. This was going to be such an experience, she just knew it. .. except for the crowd maybe. She wasn’t a huge fan of crowds but she didn’t care. It was the World Cup. She walked slowly, trying not to bump into people, looking at all the merchandise on display. Hmm.. the fourteen year old was indecisive.

The dynamic here was interesting because Nicola B. Jarvis loved sappiness and is the epitome of a real sap despite her not date's obvious dislike for it. She just couldn't help it. But she was also eyeing the kid-sized jersey for her little brother and then laughed. "Look! Should I get this one for my brother?" Nico held up the small jersey saying 'England You Came!' which, for her, was an A+ pun!
"Ooooooh, I like 'em! Works well those hats!" Nico beamed. "Now you've got a jersey and shirt collection to complete too!" This Hugglypuff was here for it.

Her face red and hands tightly closed in fists by her sides, the girl was actually holding her breath for most of the time as she walked through people, trying her best not to bump into any of them.
It was the World Cup, though, so she knew it was a big deal, especially as it was in the UK and England was in the final. Catherine wasn't going to complain, because it was a once in a lifetime kind of experience, but... she couldn't wait until she was back at their tent, with only their families to deal with.
Dealing with Noah and Scarlett instead of this crowd sounded like a dream right now. And that was saying something.
"Why do they have to be so loud?" The nine year-old grumbled under her breath half to herself, half to her best friend, sending a few glares and frowns to those who dared bump into her. "And blind." Couldn't they see she was trying to avoid human contact!? So rude!

Spain had been eliminated, and yet that hadn’t stopped Adriana from feeling the need to make an appearance at the final match. Nor did the fact she didn’t particularly care about Quidditch at all. Any event was a possible place where she could network, or, at the very least, show people what they were missing. Both in fashion and otherwise, although it wasn’t as if she was desperate. Adriana Dane was never desperate, or at least she’d never admit it. She never admitted to having any weaknesses at all.
Either way, dressed impeccably in an outfit of her own design, she wove her way through the crowds of people gathered around the food stands, not too concerned about if she was being polite or not, to investigate what else was being offered.
Of course, she hadn’t expected much, but upon raising up a garishly colored beanie in the colors of one country’s team or another in two fingers to eye level, she was underwhelmed.

"Great view from up here. You must be doing something right at your job, Alexander." Maddie offered her husband a teasing grin and lead the way, her hand in his so he wouldn't get lost in the crowd. She was proud of him, did he know? So proud that she could endure the screaming fans and scary unsettling mascots just to make him happy. Okay, plus the sport was kind of growing on her. A little. Maybe.
Whatever.
Consulting their tickets again, the brunette 'excuse me, pardon me'd her way to their seats and settled down, taking the pitch in. "I was thinking butterbeers and maybe some fish and chips? I'm starved." She was always starved, though. "Think they have chocolate, too? You know, for dessert." Because obviously that was the most important thing right now. Obviously.
...
As for whether or not she was having fun yet, Maddie paused in her rambling to lean over and kiss Al on the cheek because she loved him, she knew why this date was special given their first date, and they deserved a good day out. He did. Yes, she was having fun.
"I must be."
He was, he knew he was, their coach had been dropping hints about future promotions and Alex was trying VERY hard to keep his expectations low. Not very successfully but he was trying. Logically, he was well aware that he was far from experienced or old (they usually went hand in hand somehow huh?) enough for anything to happen any time soon but his heart still got way too excited every time their coach wanted to have a private conversation.
ANYWAY, he was digressing.
Knowing full well that Maddie probably wouldn't be enjoying herself sitting up here by herself, Alex looked around the pitch for a moment before standing up again. "You should help me pick the food." He held out his hand again, grinning to her.
..........
"...maybe they'll have Norwegian food again." Alex said once they'd somehow managed to make it through the crowd of people heading ONTO the stands. Giving his wife's hand a squeeze, he led them over to one of the nearest food stands. "Right, so....chocolate, right? You wanted chocolate?" Also other things but hey, desserts were very important. They definitely and wholeheartedly agreed on that.
She was here. She was HERE. At the Quidditch world CUP.
Lenora still couldn’t believe it. This was going to be such an experience, she just knew it. .. except for the crowd maybe. She wasn’t a huge fan of crowds but she didn’t care. It was the World Cup. She walked slowly, trying not to bump into people, looking at all the merchandise on display. Hmm.. the fourteen year old was indecisive.
What did she want to buy?
His arms were full. You name it, Maxie had grabbed it. From the very frivolous (Quidditch themed toilet tissue with tiny, flying bludgers) to fruity (cherries dipped in white gold chocolate and made to look like snitches) to very expensive (a leather bound copy of quidditch through the ages with annotations from Ginny Weasley) and finally, to practical (omnioculars).He was carrying so much he could hardly hold it all, and sure enough- he dropped something (a pen shaped like a beater's bat) right by the foot of a very pretty-curly haired witch.
"E-erm." Maxie began, shuffling his feet. Social Anxiety, it seemed, was much stronger than any love or excitement he'd been feeling. Red faced, Maxie tried to work up the courage to say something to the girl- just a quickexcuse me! so he could grab the little bat-pen and get out of here....

Royland was probably the only Gladin family member who was excited about the World Cup. Which was REALLY weird to him. He'd for sure thought Nettie and Jimmy - the two people in the family who actually PLAYED - would be interested. But Nettie was more focused on her U-17, which was understandable. Jimmy was spending his first summer as an employed adult so...ok, it made sense that no one else in the family had been interested.
Holding hands with his beautiful girlfriend, Hattie, he strolled along the merchandise and food stands before the match. "Ok, what souvenir do you want? It's on me," he told her with a grin.

Cecelia, on the other hand, was LIVING HER BEST LIFE. The colors. The crowds. THE EXCITEMENT. She couldn't even BELIEVE she got to be here and that her mum had agreed to let her check out the stands while she waited in line for food. THAT LINE WAS HUGE! It meant she had all the time in the WORLD, basically, and she was enjoying EVERY MINUTE of sweet freedom.
"It's because this is all so amazing, Catherine!" The blonde grinned, her long blonde hair bouncing around her shoulders as she walked with a pep in her step towards one of the merchandise tables. "Look, I know it's not really your thing, but it's SO MINE, so please at least try and have fun..." She got all puppy eyes activated mode on her best friend, imploring her to enjoy herself. It really shouldn't be too hard. THIS WAS THE WORLD CUP!
"You think my mum will let me get a jersey? That'd be so cool!"

"Chocolate is my most favorite thing in the world next to cats, and art, and...I know I'm forgetting something." She flashed a smile at him, moving closer as someone with an impressive order of chips squeezed past them. The smell alone made her mouth water and she was suddenly very glad she'd joined Alex. Meant she could snack as soon as they got their order. "Hey, I remembered. My husband." That was him and he smelled equally lovely. "You're on my favorite things list, too." Lucky him. Maddies only made lists about important things.
"I vote cake or brownies or cookies or chocolate ice cream with chocolate sauce." Or all of the above. She might be tiny, but the girl could eat.
