Hogwarts RPG Name: Andromeda Renzler-Denaker Gryffindor First Year | Joins in Fluttery Pegasi Now that Hads was on a summer teen quidditch team, she needed plenty of practice. Which was fine with her, because quidditch and being on a broom were fun. She wanted nothing more than to be on her new broom, Langley, as much as possible. So when her coach told her about this place, Hads made her way over the first chance she had.
Naturally, Mom was at work, and Dad was living in California again, so she took the bus. The muggle bus. Some of the looks she got carrying her broom around were downright hilarious. But...at the same time, Hads should probably get a sleeve or bag to carry it around in, like those they use for skis and snowboards. Just to keep the broom out of direct sight of muggles.
Getting off at the closest stop to the pitch, Hadley walked the rest of the way, getting more odd looks from pedestrians and...oh. The pitch was being used. There weren't a lot of people and they looked about her age...wait, was that Benton? Yeah, it was. "Hey!" Hadley waved to get Benton's attention. "Mind if I join you?"

Harriet loved flying. She absolutely loved it. It wasn't something that she wanted to do professionally, but it was fun. And she wanted to practice. She knew that she could fly at home, but it wasn't the same as flying at a quidditch pitch. So she had gotten her mother to drop her off at the recreational Quidditch pitch. After spotting a few people she knew, Hattie had waved off her mother, who would be collecting her in a few hours. She didn't really need to be supervised when she had a few friends here.
She held onto her broom, well her mom's old broom since she wasn't allowed to have one yet. Smiling, she headed towards the little group of people. "Hi!"

| ^^you four Unforgivably Cursed | adultescent Even though Henry got plenty of practice and play time now that he was on England's U17 Quidditch team this summer, he was always up for a game of Quidditch. And he was always up for hanging out with his best friend. So an afternoon at the recreational Quidditch pitch with Benton sounded like a great idea for this fourteen year old.
His dad actually had some business to tend to in town today, so once he accompanied him, Henry walked the rest of the way with his broom resting on his shoulder and his quaffle tucked under his other arm. He could see a few people already in the air as well as a few on the ground watching. Cool. Maybe some of them would want to play with them, assuming one of the kids there was Benny.
Coming up closer, he saw one of the girls was one of his housemates. "Hey, Hattie!" he greeted her with a grin, then looked over at the other girl (Hadley) and gave her a friendly smile. He didn't really know her though he did recognize her from school. "Hi! You guys want to play?" They had brooms with them so maybe they would.
He glanced up in the air again, watching his friend fly around with an older looking girl. "Benny, hey!" He called up to get his attention. "Ready to play?" Tossing the quaffle into the air for him to catch it, he then swung his broom around to mount it.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Andromeda Renzler-Denaker Gryffindor First Year | Fluttery Pegasi "Hi." Hadley waved to the girl that came in after her. She didn't know the girl personally, but knew she was a first year from Hogwarts. Was she Hufflepuff? Or Gryffindor, or? She wasn't Ravenclaw, that much Hadley knew. "I'm Hadley."
Hads let her brand-new broom hoover for a moment and mounted it. She was just about to kick off when she heard someone else approach. Another school mate, male this time, that she didn't know. She gave him a little wave and nodded. "Yeah, I'll play." She was just gonna practice her flying, but since the others were here too, might as well join in and practice her game skills.
Hadley noticed the quaffle in the boy's hands. "You wouldn't happen to have a bludger too? I can practice my beater skills." Where were her manners? Duh. "I'm Hadley, by the way."

| Puff by day, snake by night | Mj's bestie | Always UP to Something... Wow he was flying Benton hadn't noticed the girls come in until he heard voices. Glancing over he was a little shocked to see so many. This was a popular place to hangout. Just as he landed Henry came walking in. "Hey I'm Benny" He said to the older girl (Venessa) and then turned to people he did know. "Hey Hads and Hattie sure you can play."
Grabbing his back that he had laid on the ground Benton pulled out a Quaffle, "We could fly around throwing the quaffle or we could take turns being keeper." Either was cool with him. Looking at Hadley he shook his head, "No, I don't have any bludgers. Mom doesn't think they are safe so I just play chaser or keeper." He wasn't fast enough for seeker. "Should we get on our brooms and get started?" That sounded fun, yeah?

| Unforgivably Cursed | adultescent Oh. Apparently Benton missed that Henry threw the quaffle to him since he landed just when he tossed it and the charmed ball slowly fell to the ground. No big deal though. Henry watched its descent before heading over to the ground to retrieve it. They probably didn't need two so he just held onto it while they figured out what they were going to do.
He shook his head as the girl asked if they had any bludgers. "I have one in my practice set at home, but I didn't think to bring it." If it was just going to be him and Benton, there wouldn't have been any need for more than a quaffle. And he didn't realize that anyone else would be around to play, but it was really cool that there were. "I'm Henry," he grinned as the girl introduced herself as Hadley. "So, are you a beater?" He once entertained the thought of being a beater himself, but chaser was always his favorite. "We could play boys against girls?" he suggested as he got back on his broom. That was always fun. "Or, it doesn't really matter to me." He just really liked to fly and play so it was all good to him.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Andromeda Renzler-Denaker Gryffindor First Year | Fluttery Pegasi Dang. They didn't have a bludger. Hadley could really use the practice. But it didn't matter. It's not like she had planned to practice with the bludger today anyway. "No problem. Sure we can just practice with the Quaffle." It'd be good to get some practice with other positions too, to be honest.
Hadley nodded to the boy that introduced himself as Henry. He was...interesting. In a good way. "Yeah, I'm a beater. For the Prince Street Pixies. It's a regional team." She grinned. It might not seem much to some, but for her it was huge. Growing up Muggleborn, she'd played softball and soccer, not Quidditch, so to make a team as a complete noob to the sport was something she was proud of. "Guys vs. Girls?" She turned to the other girl with a grin. "What do you say? Wanna help me kick the boys' butts?"

Harriet was excited to get some flying practice. She hadn't really played that intensely. She's wasn't too involved in quidditch. She liked watching, but she didn't want to play too much. It was funny, since her mother had played, but Hattie just liked watching. But she liked playing for fun too "Girls vs boys?" She mused with a little grin, as she looked around. "That sounds like fun" Though she had kind of wanted to be on Henry's side since he actually played for a proper team. That must have meant he was good at quidditch. But it would be fun. "I'm in!" She mused, grinning at the other girl. "We're so gonna win"

Hogwarts RPG Name: Silas Rainier Montesh Jr First Year | 1 of 4 Amigos Don't underestimate me! vanessa smiled at the kid, " Nice to meet ya, Benny. " Oooh he had little friends meeting him here. NICE!.... she was climbing on her broom when she heard him say something about not having any bludgers or a snitch.... Whoa... Heck no... they needed to be able to have a decent game anyway... So she piped up as she flew over to him and his friends...
" Hey... did you just say you don't have any bludgers, yeah?" She could so get Roarke here to play with all of them AND he'd have the missing balls... She was sure of it. How could he not... He played for U17 for Merlin's sake...
" I could see if my boyfriend could bring his set down, yeah?.... " she asked the group as a whole... " Oh I'm Vanessa... I just met Benny here..." Smiles " you two are... whom?"

| Puff by day, snake by night | Mj's bestie | Always UP to Something... They were gong to play boys vs girls. This was going to be so cool. "Should we have any keepers or just have chasers?" Probably just chasers since there was only two of them. He looked at Haddie with complete shock, "You do? That's so cool. So your parents are cool with you doing magical things and stuff now?" He had remembered her story at the ice cream place about feeling out of place, but that was so great of them to let her play wizard sports during the summer. "Come on Hattie, you might be good at drawing, but the pitch is for the boys." He couldn't draw to save his life, but he could play quidditch. He'd show them for sure. Looking at the Vanessa girl he kind of just watched, bring her boyfriend? "Are you going to send a patronous or something?" Was he close by or? Benton wasn't sure. "I think we are good with just playing with a quaffle." Honestly he didn't really want to be hit by a bludger today, but he wouldn't fully say that out loud. "I mean if you want him to come play that's cool to."
Jumping on his broom he took the quaffle and headed into the air.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Silas Rainier Montesh Jr First Year | 1 of 4 Amigos Don't underestimate me! " brilliant... I'll call him and see if he wants to come down and have a game.... Pulls out her mobile and dials her phone hoping he answers.. she hadn't seen him in a few days... and she missed him something awful. " so... It's a no to the other balls then , Yeah, Benny? " she asked as she held her hand over the reciever....
Crap... No answer... so.... she left him a quick message letting him know where to come looking for her and that they had a pick up game they were about to start...
After hanging up she hopped back onto her broom and started flying laps warming up her flying skills.... a few fast passes across the pitch and a well done Wronski feint... Woot!... she was a flyer for sure.... coming back down to the ground needing to adjust her boots...
" well.... We gonna play?" she called out to the rest of them....

Hogwarts RPG Name: Andromeda Renzler-Denaker Gryffindor First Year | Fluttery Pegasi "Yeah, we are!" Totally going to win. She liked the other girl's enthusiasm. The boys had more experience, sure, but that would just cause them to underestimate the girls. They so had this.
Hads turned to Benny and nodded. Mmm-hmm. "Yep. Well Mom is. I don't know about Dad, but since my parents are splitting up and he's in California," she shrugged, "he doesn't really have a say." So she got to do everything this summer. Quidditch, spending all the she wanted with her wizarding friends. She even got to go into Weasley's, and she had been forbade from doing so previously. Hadley in a joke shop just spelled trouble. That was even after setting off the fireworks she got from Zonko's in the backyard. "Honestly, I think Mom's trying to overcompensate for last summer." Not that she minded. But Mom's supportiveness did come with tutoring in potions and Herbology - her weakest subjects. "Oh, I'm Hadley, or Hads if you want." She smiled at the girl and held out her hand for a high five. "So, who are you?" Hadley's eyes narrowed at Benny as he made some remark about the pitch being for the boys. Oh, it was on now. "You're on our team." She was after all a girl and it was guys vs. girls.
But wait...she could get her boyfriend to bring a bludger? Awesome! "Yeah, that'd be..." Or not. Benny had already responded, dismissing the offer. Oh well. "Yeah, we're coming." Hadley mounted her broom again and kicked off, soaring into the air. She might not have the experience the others did, and was certainly out-classed by them, she still took to the broom naturally, and by the end of the summer will have shed what bit of awkwardness there was.

| Dani and Ashleysaurus ^^ urine trouble | Pat's Strong Confident Other Half | Pees Like a Champion Unicorn Racehorse A Quidditch Pitch was the best place to hold a playdate, wasn't it? This Seeker certainly thought so.
Having told Candy Girl Lex that they'd meet her here, Alec headed into the Quidditch Pitch, one hand holding onto C's and the other holding onto a small basket of food. Sammy probably needed his mother more now so the man let his son stay with Ells.
Speaking of, he turned towards her and said quietly, "It doesn't look like a bad place to hold a playdate, does it?" Biased? He was. But then again, Ells had been a Quidditch player once before so surely she should understand. And if she didn't, there was some hot chocolate with marshmallows that might convince her. "Where do you want to sit?" And where was his other favourite blonde and pseudo-sister?

| Yeah I broke that mirror, so what? ll NOT backward ll Official Gryfferin ll Lemon's favourite
She'd have to be the worst liar in history to say she was surprised they'd be having this playdate thing on a quidditch pitch. It just made too much sense when you considered who she would be meeting up with. The venue didn't bother her, it was a lot better than a number of other places they could have suggested and the young woman had enjoyed the game back at Hogwarts. The pitch would no doubt bring back great memories. Lex dressed herself and the fussy baby in relatively light winter wear compared to what a muggle may have chosen and used a warming charm as a supplement. Suffice to say she didn't much feel like bundling up. All that time in warmer climate and a heat regulated home had left her rather unwilling were thick clothing was concerned.
As she entered the pitch, Alexa gave the 8 month old a running commentary on the tentative plans for the day. She'd even humour her with that animated voice she knew she liked--whatever it took to keep her THIS content. Kid just woke up from a nap, it was like walking on eggshells til she collected herself. "Look, there they are." Lex pointed for the benefit of the baby even as she made her way over to the two. "And they brought you little friends too."

| Hi lovelies! elephant-astic•wanderlust•stay in the ninedaaays the original Taco Belle•look at the flowers✿ "Coming from Mr. Quidditch Star himself. I think you'd live on the pitch if you could, Al." Ella grinned at her husband, amused. His passion for the sport was incredibly endearing, did he know? She was a fan. One of his biggest, actually. The small blonde holding his hand might just beat her in that category these days and she didn't mind one bit. Sam on the other hand, well, he was a total mama's boy. She gave him a bounce in her arms, noting his look of excitement. "You'll be able to get down in a minute, Sammy. Don't worry." "I know, I know!" Everyone was ALWAYS ALWAYS making decisions without her, but Cecelia knew EXACTLY where they should sit! She tugged on her daddy's hand enthusiastically and poooointed at a spot just ahead where the ground looked more like spring than winter. "There, daddy! Then we can fly! Can we, can w-OH! Mama, there they are!" Auntie 'Lexa! She was here and ohhhhh, she had the baby! Cecelia liked babies, she did.

| Level 5 friends Puff by day, snake by night | Mj's bestie | Always UP to Something... This wasn't your typical first day back at the ministry meeting,
but Erec was bored of those types of meetings and he had gone to some training over the break to help become a better leader. He had felt he was slipping a bit with his employees. The first two years were better than the past year, though the eggs most likely had something to do with it, he still wanted to improve for his team.
So here he was with his coat, hat, and gloves standing on the snow-covered pitch. He looked around and blew on his hands for warmth. How many of his employees would hate him for this? Though the hot chocolate and fire going made a nice touch to the winter day, he still thought many wouldn't be pleased.
Team building was important though and what a way to kick off the ministry term than outside in the snow.

His steps became slower as he approached Delacroix, his head bowed down. "Are there renovations being done at the Ministry or...." The dark haired man looked around at the landscape, "...are you coming out to us The Abominable Snowman?"

He did not get enough sleep the night before.
Dorian had a rough evening yesterday, and he was in the midst of trying to find a healer that could help him. Nevertheless, he persisted. He had bundled up in his black peacoat, black gloves, but no hat. He was also carrying a cup of hot coffee because he had to fuel his body for this work day.
He trailed through the snow towards his Department Head, and when he was close enough, he greeted the man. "Hey, Erec." He found his spot beside him and sipped on his coffee as he waited for this meeting to begin.
Noticing another man there, he nodded as a form of greeting.

| Kimothée Chalamet • The UWU Agenda • Once Baby, Now Trouble • All Growed Up Rani wasn't exactly sure about how she felt when she saw that memo on the notice board. Were they seriously foregoing the first-day-back meeting? The brunette wasn't complaining, but it took her aback. In fact, it felt like a bit of fresh air that they no longer had to sit in the usual conference room. Change was great at times, and she chose to consider today was one of those great moments.
One hand inside the pocket of her coat, Rani couldn't help but think. Why on Earth were they meeting at the quidditch pitch away from the Ministry of all possible places? Her other hand clasped around her latté, which she thankfully bought before reporting on her first day. The woman then joined her fellow employees. "Good morning, gentlemen," she greeted. And was she really the only female at the moment?

| Swedishfish Girl! Madame Librarian! Jess's Soul Sister! Sweetest Swede! Claudette really thought she had read wrong when she had read the memo from Erec the day before about where their first meeting back was going to be held. Outside on a freezing snow covered quidditch pitch hadn't exactly been what the blond had envisioned starting back from maternity leave.
Bundled up from head to toe with purple ear muffs to match her thick black coat, purple gloves and black boots the blond immigration officer headed to the morning meeting. At least Lia was warm and cozy inside at the ministry day care. Shivering slightly Claudette took the time to buy a steaming hot cup of tea to warm herself with, from one of the local vendors before she headed out onto the field to join the others.
Nearing the little group that was forming with Erec standing in the center Claudette greeted cheerily as her eyes flickered from Erec to Kasi to Dorian and lastly Rani. "Good morning everyone!" stopping to stand next to Rani she asked quietly "Rani, did you have a good vacation?"

| cœur perfide | super prosecutor | Ameh's Squishy Dmitry thought he'd read the memo wrong yesterday when Erec had told everyone to meet on the Quidditch pitch. It was freezing out and no one in their right mind would want to be stuck outside in the snow. Or at least, that's what his wife told him. Dmitry didn't mind much, in fact over the break he'd gone ice swimming so standing outside would be nothing.
Of course, not everyone seemed to share his opinion. It seemed like most of the Department were bundled up from head to toe right now. Some even wearing ear muffs, he noticed as he wandered over to join the group. It made him feel slightly underdressed in his black skinny jeans, henly and leather bomber jacket.

| YAY!!! Hello everyone! Puff by day, snake by night | Mj's bestie | Always UP to Something... He wasn't waiting long when his level started to show up. The look on their faces was priceless and he chuckled to himself though he had just a small smile on his lips. "Good morning everyone. I hope you dressed warmly." If not he had some extra hats and gloves that he made sure to bring with him for them. They could charm them to fit if needed. "No, there are no renovation. I just wanted to do something different today and start the year off right." He did laugh aloud when he suggested that he was going to come out as the Ambonablie Snowman. That could have been interesting, maybe next year he'd dress up. "How was everyone's break, I hope you all did something fun." He hadn't had much difference in his days except they were spent at home or at training. With his daughter not wanting to come spend the holiday with him, he didn't have much else going on. "Now I know this is a little different, but I went to some training over our break and I've come to realize I haven't done enough team building through my years as department head here, that is going to change and I thought what was a better way to have some fun as a team, but in the snow. So we are going to wait for a few more people and then get started. Until then please get some coffee or hot chocolate while we wait and of course lets hear about your breaks." He liked having some personal knowledge about his employees.

"No, there are no renovation. I just wanted to do something different today and start the year off right." He did laugh aloud when he suggested that he was going to come out as the Ambonablie Snowman. That could have been interesting, maybe next year he'd dress up.

He liked having some personal knowledge about his employees. Erec seemed happy to see them all. Why did he hope that they had dressed warmly? Were they really going to be spending the better part of the morning out there on the snowy pitch in the freezing cold? Claudette was not amused by that prospect, she wondered if she after they had endured whatever Erec had up his sleeve would have wished for an extra week of maternity leave.
Tugging her gloves on tighter and pulling her ear muffs down more over her blond hair covered ears Claudette listened in silence. It was reassuring to know that the IMC wasn't getting renovated. She still wasn't caught up on all department news so she took all the scraps of info she could get. Hopefully Rani could fill her in on the rest later.
What Erec said last had Claudette making big eyes in surprise. Team Building. Shaking her head she shared happily, glowing like a proud mother. "I've spent the whole break with my husband Luc and our newly born baby Lia. It's been wonderful and memorable."

| Mrs. Alex Turner *asterisks user* Secret Door The British Ministry of Magic was weird. Between the orientation and this, Marya was beginning to realise she had chosen a rather unusual place to start her career. Not that it was too important; at the end of the day, she would adapt. Or force the environment to adapt to her. Whatever came first. Though the location wasn't very ideal for her first day on the job, the weather had least was something she could weather. Zagreb winters had prepared her to standing outside in the snow.
Also, magic. Useful little thing, with its heating charms.
Walking securely across the snow towards the group she assumed were her new coworkers, the twenty one year old had her gloved hands deep in the pockets of her winter robes, nevertheless. Right, it looked like she was late. Or at least, not early. This wasn't ideal either; she was frowning to herself when she joined the group, just in time to hear the last part of Delacroix's speech. Team building. She reached for a cup of hot coffee, one eyebrow raised upwards suspiciously. "I do hope that doesn't include making snowmen." The cup was halfway to her lips when a pesky, familiar voice rang inside her head. Something about how she was raised better than this. Right. Manners. "Good morning."
Nailed it. |

| Shoe!Girl │ Rebel Ravie │ Confundus Queen │ RP Addict Was everyone else forgetting they were magical? Kendall had wondered that as she saw everyone huddled on the pitch looking like they’d rather be anywhere but there. Followed by the thought that maybe none of them had been Ravenclaws, as she’d augmented her winter clothes with a liberal usage of heating charms when she’d seen the notice about the meeting being out here. Plus, she was pretending that she wasn’t running late, that her oldest daughter’s questions about if her cousins were safe at Hogwarts hadn’t sidetracked her. There hadn’t been much she’d been able to say to Caoilainn that wouldn’t have been a lie. She’d gone to Hogwarts after all, and she knew what could happen there. But she’d managed to convince her that everyone would be okay, and then he’d finally gotten to work.
Tucking a pink curl of hair underneath the knit cap she was wearing, she regarded the woman getting coffee curiously. “Is there something wrong with making snowmen?” She was just curious, even if she was long past being a child by now. She had kids, so obviously snowmen had been made. Both magically and not, actually, depending on where they’d built them in Galway. “Morning Erec. Everyone.” There, greetings were done, and she claimed a cup of cocoa as she waited to find out what they actually were going to be doing. Besides, she had her reasons for being there slightly after everyone else, and she’d mention it if asked. And offer chocolate if anyone wanted any.
