As you reach any entrance to the stands, a golden turnstile magically materializes out of thin air to effectively block your path. You cannot go around the turnstile and using magic on them will not have the slightest effect. If you wish to enter the stands, you need to pay a flat fee of 5 galleons for adults and alumni and 2 galleons for students to get in. Insert the money into the hole on top of the turnstile; the turnstile will then unlock and will allow you to pass through and climb the stairs to the stands...
...Welcome to the stands!
Grab a front-row seat in the house section of your choice and cheer on the House Quidditch teams as they battle for the Quidditch Cup!
Please remember to follow the school rules; rule-breakers will be punished by means of house point loss and/or detention.
Hufflepuff can do it! As his former teammates got ready for the match he would have to sit in the stands and wish that he was still on the team. Nashville would have to try out next term...he wanted to tryout next term because he wanted to play but he knew that he had a better chance playing next term if he were still on the team. Oh well, that just meant that he would have to practice his butt off during the summer all while baking some pies of course. Nashville paid his little entry fee and went to go find a place to sit. The Hufflepuff was all deck out in black and yellow, he wore a yellow shirt, a black leather jacket, black pants and yellow converses. He was all ready to go to cheer his team on though he did think they still hated him well Alec and Minerva didn't so that was a plus but Alec never hated his to begin with.
There! There was place he could sit, but it was quite lonely when your very few friends were on the same team. But maybe he would fine some of his other friends that were outside of the Hufflepuff house. Maybe he would fine Melanie or someone of that sort...you know fun and silly.

Good Merlin, there went her 'sneak in unnoticed so the snitches don't attack' plan. Blown clear out of the water by Flamsteed. Grr.
"Erm...." Annie had to blink a few times to try to recall who Pebbles was. A kitten, maybe? Well she liked kittens, she guessed... "SUUUUUUURE," the redhead shouted back belatedly. "ANYTHING FOR A HUFFLEPUFF SUPPORTER." Why not.

Adults. Maybe even professors. Jake smiled again slightly, if they WERE professors he was kinda gutted that they couldn't have been HIS professors... they seemed like his kind of people.
Jake was just about to check his watch and see how long the match had before it started when one of the professors shouted something that made him freeze. Truebridge. Headmistress Truebridge. Not being one for reading newspapers or checking up that much on his old school (he'd become somewhat of a recluse over recent years) Jake didn't know who was the head of this school these days. He did, however, recognise the name 'Truebridge', though was pretty sure the Truebridge he knew wasn't likely to be... Headmistress.
Quickly spinning round in his seat, mostly out of curiosity but also on the off-chance that he might be able to see the Professor Truebridge he knew, Jake got a bit of a shock.
There, sitting right there, was... Bunz. Bunbury. Professor I-Hate-Upstead. A few years ago Jake might have gotten a fright at that surprise, but this time he just... stared. In shock.
And then he veeeeery gradually smiled. Not too widely because that woman was VOLATILE and would no doubt assume he was up to something. And then he held up his hand in a tentative wave/gesture of acknowledgement.
This was weird.
But he came for the memories and
here
they
were.
Of course Flamsteed WOULD attract the attention of the one person she'd been hoping would NOT notice her. OF COURSE. The redhead ground her teeth to herself and stared right back at Jake, grown up Jake. Even if he was a little older looking... she hadn't forgotten him. Not. At. All.
The woman raised an eyebrow upon seeing his up to something smile and casual wave... and slowly raised her hand in reply. There. A wave. She could go home and tell Ethan she had been civil with him now.

Well somebody was in a good mood. So had been Annie, til she saw THAT BOY. Still, no harm in being polite to Ms. Somerlad... she had met the girl's father, after all.
"Good day," she replied to the girl with a soft smile. Cassia was supporting Slytherin, no doubt.... good for her, she wouldn't be sitting by Bunz or trying to yank on her hair today!

Dora took a long time to get ready for matches, especially those where she had friends and boyfriends in the sky that day, but Alice, she took SO much longer. She wasn't even braiding and unbraiding hair like Dora had been or wearing a skirt. Which she so totally should have been wearing, cause she looked cute in them and all. No, she was just coming as Alice, which she didn't mind, but whyyyyyyy was she taking so long?
After waiting for what felt like forever, she tucked away Biter under her hat and went to retrieve her an Alice. It took some doing, but she finally got her bestie and proceeded to drag her out to the grounds and up the stands.
"You really should plan what you're going to wear for these things before hand. In fact." She plopped them right smack dab in the center of the stands, waving at Blue and Cassia on the way up. "I'll dress you for the next match." It was decided. She adjusted her hat and let the jarvey explore Alice's lap while she allowed her hazel eyes scanned the field for her Slytherin.

Aidan walked into the commentator's box carrying both his and Lex's bowls and cups. All of which were full. The cups with hot chocolate and the bowls with ice cream. He had a very good balancing act going on, so no one better bump into him. Once inside, he set them all carefully down and waited for his co-commentator.
In the meantime, he straightened his jeans and shirt. A red shirt, he wore. Because he was commentating and commentators were supposed to be unbiased and red represented Gryffindor and they weren't playing and for no other reason.

She was here. Watching, and not playing obviously. She hadn't played in a game all term which was sad but meh. Walking up to the stands she took a seat away from all the others.
This game was intense and a special one at that. She just wanted to watch it alone

Alistaire squinted. Looks like young Mister Stone is commentating today. Hmmm. He would do a good job.
Ali was wearing a yellow shirt and green cargo pants. His own Lions weren't playing, so he had no reason to be 100% for any side. Though, he did hold a soft spot in his heart for the Badgers, since he'd almost been put there himself. So... seat.
Oh look, Medea! Wait... Airey was by her. That would be too much for him. Scanning the crowd, he quickly saw Annie as well and headed towards her. On his way, he happened to notice Fina looking for a place as well. Hailing her, he shouted, "Professor Hadley, come join me an' Annie!" Motioning towards two rows ahead of himself where he would soon be sitting, he made his way towards the Headmistress.
"Morning, Annie. Beau'iful day fer a match! May I sit?"

Josephina made her way up in the stands, especially excited for this match because one, it was her hufflepuffs, and two, they were playing against Slytherin. And Slytherin Team had really been on fire this term, which is more reason to be excited. Because she REALLY wanted to see the look on Hecate's face if when the badgers bit the snakes heads off today. Figuratively, of course.
The only problem was, where should she sit? Stareeeeeeeeeeee...... So many kids! She could just go sit in the commentator's seat, but ... she wasn't commentating today, so yea....
OOH Medea and Airey!!! BUT .. Airey was all decked out in a green suit, so ... wouldn't that be weird? Yea, probably. She was just going to stand there and block the path instead. That was until she heard someone calling to her ...... OH it was the attractive groundskeeper!
"Ali!" Beaming and waving at him, she made her way cautiously toward where he was motioning for her. Near the Headmistress too. Oh this would be okay. "Hello, Annie."Griiin. "Excited to see some rabidness today?"

Annie turned her attention back to the pitch, settling back into her seat as she got ready to watch. This should be goooooood! And close. She knew both teams' Seekers were ridiculously talented, especially for children!

Could he sit? "Of course!" she trilled, scooting over to give him room. "I'm very excited for the match today. The quidditch cup race has been CLOSE this term!"

"Hi Josephina," Annie returned her grin with a somewhat devilish one of her own. "Oh I am ready," she gestured toward her outfit. Wearing shorts had been a risky choice but that's why she'd brought her cloak, just in case her legs got cold you know. "I DO hope Hufflepuff wins!" The redhead blurted in her excitement.
Oh, and... the Headmistress gave the Huffie HoH a head to toe glance and a nod of approval. "Love the outfit!"

The best thing about commentating? She got in for free. It was great.
Penelope reached the commentator box quickly, straightening Ascanius' Slytherin tie around her neck with one hand when she spotted Aidan. Oh, he was here already. Nice.
"Hey, Aidan. That for us?" she asked, looking at the bowls and cups as she set down her own snacks - chocolate frogs and sugar quills - she'd brought. These were all good snacks for Quidditch, yeah?
She plopped down into her seat, eyeing the pitch where it looked like the teams were starting to come out. Awesome. She'd start it off then, she supposed, grabbing the microphone.
"This thing's on, yeah?" Whoa, that was loud. And a yes. And no screeching this time, thank Merlin. "Welcome, guys, to the Slytherin vs. Hufflepuff match! We've got a good game ahead of us. So cheer for your team or house or just one person or whatever you want. Just make some noise because this is Quidditch!" No use for being quiet here.
As the teams flew around to warm up, she looked down at the roster.
"Up for the Hufflepuff team, we've got Tobias Tempus as Keeper; Captain Ella Bishop and Oakey Gunter for Beaters, Wade Elisabeth-Potter, Kaiden Yarborough, and Minerva Wheatborn as Chasers; and of course Alec Summers as Seeker. Cheer for your team, Hufflepuffs!" She paused for a moment to let the applause and cheers and whatever else go on and then she continued.
"Playing for Slytherin, we have Katrina Hudson playing Keeper; Derryth Ferrier and Clement Belrose as Beaters; West Odessa, Theodore Kinsley, and Ascanius Stark as Chasers; and Captain Dylan Montmorency as Seeker! Let hear you cheer, Slytherins!" Aaand she paused to let them make some noise and decided to hand the mic over to Aidan so he could start the game off.
Snack time for her now.

Oh good, it sounded like she was game for that. Heh, game. At a game. Sometimes he amused himself far too much.

Well, it appeared that Annie was happy to see him. That was good as well! "I cin tell!" Her outfit was enough to prove her excitement. She was brave to wear shorts in April. "Yes, very close! We'll see if Slytherin can pull out the win!" Wouldn't that make them win the Cup most likely? "But o' course, I'd be happy ter see the Badgers get th' W today." Wink.
Oh, and had she heard? "Bonny had her calf th' other day during Care o' Magical Creatures class. The kids go' a good practical out of it." She'd probably find that appalling. "They named it after yeh, actually. Truebee." Must... not... laugh... "Bu' don' worry, she'll be outta here in a few months when she's old enough. I got that buyer lined up like I promised yeh."
Ah, and there was Fina! "Welcome!" She had also gone the 'show your House pride for the match' route. "Take a seat, they've jus' started!" And already there was one goal apiece, with a nasty Bludger hit from a Slytherin beater as well.
Holy leaping lizards! Oakey was playing...............
.........
........
And she wasn't informed of this why!? Could be a possible last minute roster change or whatever and he didn't get a chance to tell her but now she was even more sad cause it was his last game too and... *wibble*
Oh, hai, her best friend was playing too, ugh, she was just going to sit here alone, and be torn on who should win. except not really cause SLYTHERIN!
Meep.
Jake had had a hard time deciding what to wear to this match. Eventually, though, he had decided on neutral. He was here because it was his best mate's last match and he felt that meant that he should go. He honestly didn't care who won, though. Gryffindor through and through, or whatever.
"Hey!" he called, grinning as he reached the turnstiles and saw his girlfriend. He slipped the required fee into the machine and, taking Anya's hand, started up to the stands. "You look great," he commented absently as he walked. She always looked great. But the hat was different than usual.
Finding an empty spot he sat down... but was RIGHT back up on his feet. The match had started! And even if he didn't care who won... it was still exciting.
No quoting, a bunch of hi's and sitting with Cassia
Yeah I broke that mirror, so what? ll NOT backward ll Official Gryfferin ll Lemon's favourite
How had she lost that argument? Er...not an argument really, just a squabble about her preferring the kitchen to being out here. Luckily she managed to get herself a bowl before heading over and she cast that spell they'd learned in Charms class too. Melting ice-cream = unhappy Lex. Bad equation that was never meant to happen.
After paying that ridiculous fee--it WAS ridiculous today because she didn't CARE who won, she didn't even wanna see the match--she headed up the stands...
HEEEEEYYYY!
"Professors Airey and Romanos!! HAAAAAAAAIIII!!" The Gryffindor bounced and waved at the two. Wonderful Professors they were, always so happy. Oh and there was "Professor Hadley!!" She got waves and a grin too--
GASP!!!
Lex stopped just before the LOVELY Headmistress with an extra wide grin. "HAI HEADMISTRESS!!" Why yes, she was aware that she was standing just before her. Didn't mean she wasn't allowed to shout. She had the excuse of it being a Quidditch match. "You want some ice-cream??? I brought enough!! I don't mind sharing either so long as you have your own spoon but I can duplicate mine if you don't. It's chocolate so I think you'll like it!!' BEAM.
"Haiiiii DORA!!!" Because she saw her too and Nigel got a wave.
Then she saw heeeer. Ahem. After speaking with the Headmistress she stomped over to Cassia and slumped in the seat next to her. "Happppyyyy nooooow?" Blue got a wave too.

There he waaaaaaaas. Dora spotted him out from all the rest and grinned cheerfully when she spied him out on the field and pushed aside all thoughts of what wonderful outfit Alice would wear next time (when she wasn't playing that was) to give the Slytherins all the attention.
They were faaast, but her eyes were practiced and watch him when the match started, rising to her feet and cheer and shouting and waving her one pom pom around obnoxiously when he scored. "Go, Theo!" And you know... everyone that helped him. So mostly West. She wasn't here to cheer for everyone after all.

OH EXCELLENT!
Grinning towards Medea for just a moment, Airey hopped up and quickly made his way over to the Headmistress and the rest of her posse. "Thank you SO much," he said as he quickly plopped his pet rock down on her lap. "I think she gets a bit embarrassed by this green suit of mine." Truth be told he had been on the lookout for a more, er, subtle green suit but he just had not found one that SPOKE to him.
OH BRILLIANT! Mr. Stone and Miss Greenwell were commentating. Well then, he was just going to have to return to his seat now and get right back into the action. "I'll come get her once the match is over then, yeah?" And he was off leaping back towards his seat. But not before he heard about this Truebee business... HAHAHAAHAHAHA THAT WAS HILARIOUS!
GRINNING, Airey was now back in his seat..sort of. Actually he was sort of standing and LOOOOOOOOOOMING over Miss Greenwell and Mr. Stone so he could see the action from their perspective. "EXCELLENT BLOCK, MR. TEMPUS!" he shouted...kind of sort of into the microphone that the announcers were using.

Cup of espresso in hand, Ethan hurried to the stands wearing the Hufflepuff tshirt Minerva let him borrow. What? It was guy's shirt.. and of course he would be cheering on his girlfriend's team. Was he running late? As he looked for a seat, he could hear the lineup being announced already and he let his green eyes wander to the pitch. He cheered loudly when he heard Min's name.. he was so proud of her, but really hoped there would be no further injuries. He couldn't bear to see that.
He glanced around at some of the faces, not seeing anyone who he knew all that well right away. The Prefect kept walking, then saw a familiar looking Slytherin not far away. Why wasn't she playing? "Hey, Ariana.." he offered her a small smile as he approached. "Mind if I sit?" Not waiting for an answer, he took the seat next to her. They could always cheer on Hufflepuff together with their significant others being on the same team.. or.. was she rooting for Slytherin being that was her own team..?
His eyes darted back out to the pitch as the game started. He clapped and cheered for his team.. especially his favorite player, then his eye caught another familiar face not far away. "Hey, Nigel!" Ethan waved to his teammate. Hmm.. wonder who he'd be cheering for..

Directing her attention at the commentator's box a moment, she grinned when the younger Greenwell started off the commentary with the Hufflepuff lineup, clapping loudly.
And then turned her attention back at her colleagues.

OH GOOD. Of course she liked her outfit; she WAS very Hufflepuff coordinated right now. "Thank you! You too!" She grinned excitedly, as she turned in time to see Minerva make a splendid pass and Wade score ... twice. That boy ... man ... had quite some talent as far as chasing went, she noted mentally recalling their conversation about careers. Not that she condoned quidditch as a career, but if the talent was there ...

Then she heard Ali.
"You better be hoping for a Hufflepuff win today. You're sandwiched between two former Hufflepuffs." Wink. And an elbow nudge too.

There we go the game is about to start. Nashville had a huge grin on his still tanned face. MOOSE!BOY is play!! Nashville knew that he would have to bake pies for the whole team if Hufflepuff wins and they had better win to prove that him not being on the team anymore was a good idea. Nashville stood up so he could cheer on a few of his fellow Hufflepuff's.
"YEAAAAAAH HUFFFFFLEPUUUFF YOU'VE GOT THIS! GO MOOSE!BOY, GO ICE CREAM!BOY!!"
Nashville sat back down and waited for them to finish introducing the Slytherin players. This was going to be a very close match but Hufflepuff had to win. FOR THE PIES of course.

OH GOOD. Of course she liked her outfit; she WAS very Hufflepuff coordinated right now. "Thank you! You too!" She grinned excitedly, as she turned in time to see Minerva make a splendid pass and Wade score ... twice. That boy ... man ... had quite some talent as far as chasing went, she noted mentally recalling their conversation about careers. Not that she condoned quidditch as a career, but if the talent was there ...
Then she heard Ali.
"You better be hoping for a Hufflepuff win today. You're sandwiched between two former Hufflepuffs." Wink. And an elbow nudge too.
This is why he had said it would be good to see a Badger victory. Those Puffs could be rabid. "Oh I know, don' worry. If I have ter be honest, I do wan' the Badgers ter win. But I'm tryin' not ter broadcast that." Wink right back, elbow nudge right back.
The best thing about commentating? She got in for free. It was great.
Penelope reached the commentator box quickly, straightening Ascanius' Slytherin tie around her neck with one hand when she spotted Aidan. Oh, he was here already. Nice.
"Hey, Aidan. That for us?" she asked, looking at the bowls and cups as she set down her own snacks - chocolate frogs and sugar quills - she'd brought. These were all good snacks for Quidditch, yeah?
She plopped down into her seat, eyeing the pitch where it looked like the teams were starting to come out. Awesome. She'd start it off then, she supposed, grabbing the microphone.
"This thing's on, yeah?" Whoa, that was loud. And a yes. And no screeching this time, thank Merlin. "Welcome, guys, to the Slytherin vs. Hufflepuff match! We've got a good game ahead of us. So cheer for your team or house or just one person or whatever you want. Just make some noise because this is Quidditch!" No use for being quiet here.
As the teams flew around to warm up, she looked down at the roster.
"Up for the Hufflepuff team, we've got Tobias Tempus as Keeper; Captain Ella Bishop and Oakey Gunter for Beaters, Wade Elisabeth-Potter, Kaiden Yarborough, and Minerva Wheatborn as Chasers; and of course Alec Summers as Seeker. Cheer for your team, Hufflepuffs!" She paused for a moment to let the applause and cheers and whatever else go on and then she continued.
"Playing for Slytherin, we have Katrina Hudson playing Keeper; Derryth Ferrier and Clement Belrose as Beaters; West Odessa, Theodore Kinsley, and Ascanius Stark as Chasers; and Captain Dylan Montmorency as Seeker! Let hear you cheer, Slytherins!" Aaand she paused to let them make some noise and decided to hand the mic over to Aidan so he could start the game off.
Snack time for her now.
Penelope was here!! Aidan took a deep breath and ran his fingers through his hair for the millionth time already today when she wasn't looking. He smiled at her while she sat down. Did she approve? Of the snacks he brought? "Yeah, hot chocolate and ice cream."BEAM. They went together so well, didn't they? "I'll need the dishes back when you're done, though."
And here came the players! He sipped on his hot chocolate while Penelope announced the rosters.
Oh! They're starting! That was quicker than he anticipated. Aidan set down his cup and took the mic from Penelope. "Mrs. James releases the Quaffle and....it's snatched by Slytherin!" But WHO? Squint."Odessa's got it! He takes it up the pitch....Passes to Kinsley....WHO SCORES!! Slytherin scores the first goal!" Aidan gave side glances to Penelope.
"Tempus puts it back into play. Hufflepuff's got it this time. First...Wade," His last name was too long, "Then Kaiden," also too long, "Now Ethan's girlfriend," he just didn't remember her last name, "And...back to Wade...Wade makes it to the goal posts...aims to the left," ...probably shouldn't have announced that, "Hudson swoops in....BUT OH! HE FAKED HER OUT! Hufflepuff scores!!" Another side look to Penelope. How's she reacting NOW, huh?
He faced his eyes back onto the pitch, where, "Slytherin in possession! They're almost at the goal!"Squint."Kinsley's almost at the goal! He throws!! .......Tempus makes a save! No score for Slytherin!"Smirk.
Suddenly, there was a loud SMACK! somewhere near the stands. Aidan turned his head that direction JUST in time to see Derry follow through her swing, and watch the bludger she hit sail toward where the Quaffle just was. "DERRY HIT A BLUDGER!!" The Ravenclaw watched in awe as the Hufflepuff beaters zoom towards the line of fire to protect their own. But they were too late. Aidan cringed a little when the iron ball found its victim. "TEMPUS IS HIT!" Yikes.
Hopefully he recovered quickly. Poor bloke. "ANYWAY, Hufflepuff stole the falling Quaffle! Ethan's girlfriend!! She's flying with it! .......Flying still! ....Fly- OH! She passed it to Wade! Wade has it....he's.....he's hurling it......HE SCORES!!"
Oh, and in case they were wondering, "The score's now 10 to 10! TIED!"
"Your turn," he smiled at Penelope, handing her the mic again. Back to his hot chocolate.

Cup of espresso in hand, Ethan hurried to the stands wearing the Hufflepuff tshirt Minerva let him borrow. What? It was guy's shirt.. and of course he would be cheering on his girlfriend's team. Was he running late? As he looked for a seat, he could hear the lineup being announced already and he let his green eyes wander to the pitch. He cheered loudly when he heard Min's name.. he was so proud of her, but really hoped there would be no further injuries. He couldn't bear to see that.
He glanced around at some of the faces, not seeing anyone who he knew all that well right away. The Prefect kept walking, then saw a familiar looking Slytherin not far away. Why wasn't she playing? "Hey, Ariana.." he offered her a small smile as he approached. "Mind if I sit?" Not waiting for an answer, he took the seat next to her. They could always cheer on Hufflepuff together with their significant others being on the same team.. or.. was she rooting for Slytherin being that was her own team..?
His eyes darted back out to the pitch as the game started. He clapped and cheered for his team.. especially his favorite player, then his eye caught another familiar face not far away. "Hey, Nigel!" Ethan waved to his teammate. Hmm.. wonder who he'd be cheering for..
Hmm? She was just watching... watching.. biting her nails, which she never did by the way, and watching when she heard her name. She looked up briefly and saw Ethan, her best friends boyfriend. " yeah, go for it." she said regarding him sitting... so much for being alone eh....

See, the headmistress smiled. Good to know that the woman didn't hold grudges. Then gain it was Cassia who had the big heart after her snot was humiliated and all. She dropped it. A Hufflepuff thing to do, yet she did.
Dora! Hi! A wave towards the eaglette.
Now attention back to the game! Just when the players started hitting balls and all, she did see Theo scoring. Her hands shot in the air and clapped! "Keep it up, Theo!" See, she had to come to cheer for her team and friends.

After paying that ridiculous fee--it WAS ridiculous today because she didn't CARE who won, she didn't even wanna see the match--she headed up the stands...
HEEEEEYYYY!
"Professors Airey and Romanos!! HAAAAAAAAIIII!!" The Gryffindor bounced and waved at the two. Wonderful Professors they were, always so happy. Oh and there was "Professor Hadley!!" She got waves and a grin too--
GASP!!!
Lex stopped just before the LOVELY Headmistress with an extra wide grin. "HAI HEADMISTRESS!!" Why yes, she was aware that she was standing just before her. Didn't mean she wasn't allowed to shout. She had the excuse of it being a Quidditch match. "You want some ice-cream??? I brought enough!! I don't mind sharing either so long as you have your own spoon but I can duplicate mine if you don't. It's chocolate so I think you'll like it!!' BEAM.
"Haiiiii DORA!!!" Because she saw her too and Nigel got a wave.
Then she saw heeeer. Ahem. After speaking with the Headmistress she stomped over to Cassia and slumped in the seat next to her. "Happppyyyy nooooow?" Blue got a wave too.
Still watching, the snake checked the area by the turnstiles waiting for certain someone who wasn't going to attend but thanks to Cassia's awesome convincing skills, she was. Or that's what she said. BUT she wasn't here yet! Where was sheeee? Distracted by the game and cheering for the snakes, the blond didn't see her bestie head towards her. She HEARD HER!
Turning her head to see who she was greeting, of course. She patiently waited until the lioness made it. Flashing her a grin Cassia responded, "Very much!" She knew her demand would not be ignored. "Now smile please," She was going to push it further more. "It's a nice day also," She said taking off one of the green pins she had on her hair and putting it on Lex's hair. "There! Now you look lovely," That surely was going to earn her a HUGE reaction. But like they were in public and professors were there so what's the worst that could happen.

Yeah yeah yeah, she was here, but she didn't remember making any promises to smile about it. Her only promise was to take ice-cream which she did, loads of it. They could share...later when she felt a bit more giving toward the snake, for now, she was tuning out the commentary--the game was right theeere, she could see it herself thank you very much.
"Oh yes, a bloody wonderful day, nice weather, not too cold, ice-cream and best friend, what more could I ask for?" Sarcasm Cassia, sarcaaasm. There was plenty more she could ask for! Namely a kitchen, an ice-cream machine and chocolate syrup! Nodnodnod--
EHHHH???
Lex smacked her hand away and yanked the green from her hair. "Not even. I'm here, you didn't say I had to be in green too, get that thing away from me! I'm rooting for Hufflepuff." Normally she would have made an effort to be nicer with her refusal but....no. She was here, that was all Cassia needed, right...Oh? That voice sounded a lot like the...the Grounds Keeper? Oh merlin.

"Miss Cambridge! Come back here a moment, please."
Lex sat where she was, blinking at the man for an extra second before it occurred to her that he was in fact sitting there--and waiting for her to come over nonetheless. Yeah...she had a bad feeling about this...like train station bad. Or no, maybe he just got there and wanted to thank her for her work around the grounds? She HAD worked hard.
Bowl in hand, she made her way back toward the Headmistress slowly, quite curious too about what he might have wanted.
"Yes Sir?" He needed to make this quick, she was missing the match she didn't want to see.

Oh, and had she heard? "Bonny had her calf th' other day during Care o' Magical Creatures class. The kids go' a good practical out of it." She'd probably find that appalling. "They named it after yeh, actually. Truebee." Must... not... laugh... "Bu' don' worry, she'll be outta here in a few months when she's old enough. I got that buyer lined up like I promised yeh."
Ah, and there was Fina! "Welcome!" She had also gone the 'show your House pride for the match' route. "Take a seat, they've jus' started!" And already there was one goal apiece, with a nasty Bludger hit from a Slytherin beater as well.
Aww he noticed her outfit! Annie tried not to blush too much and focused on the match topic instead. Hehe. "I'd be happy if Slytherin won," since someone had to, "but I'd be happier if the Puffs pulled it off." They were like the underdogs here, they deserved a win! She returned his wink and then flicked her blue eyes back to the pitch. Was that a flap of gold she'd seen? Uh oh...
Annie's stomach might have been turning over from the potential sight of the scary snitch, but she it just plain dropped when Alistaire told her about the cow. "Wait wait wait... they named a CALF after me? Truebee? Really? And whose brilliant idea was that?" She couldn't help the snarkiness seeping into her tone. This was CLEARLY some kind of prank, targeting HER as a victim!
Even the news that a buyer was all lined up for it didn't change the firm frown now on Annie's face.

Yeah Annie's frown wasn't going anywhere fast. Not with Alexa Cambridge now blocking her view of the pitch... and blasting her ears off...
"Hello Alexa," she greeted the girl dully. "No thank you, I'm not hungry." Her stomach was definitely in knots now, between the cow!baby thing and the glints of gold she was definitely seeing zoom this way and that down there.
"Go on, enjoy the match," she gestured for the girl to take a seat.

Truth be told he had been on the lookout for a more, er, subtle green suit but he just had not found one that SPOKE to him.
OH BRILLIANT! Mr. Stone and Miss Greenwell were commentating. Well then, he was just going to have to return to his seat now and get right back into the action. "I'll come get her once the match is over then, yeah?" And he was off leaping back towards his seat. But not before he heard about this Truebee business... HAHAHAAHAHAHA THAT WAS HILARIOUS!
GRINNING, Airey was now back in his seat..sort of. Actually he was sort of standing and LOOOOOOOOOOMING over Miss Greenwell and Mr. Stone so he could see the action from their perspective. "EXCELLENT BLOCK, MR. TEMPUS!" he shouted...kind of sort of into the microphone that the announcers were using.
"Ow...wow... I mean, thank you, Professor," she put on her droll voice again. Truth be told... who WOULDN'T be embarrassed by that Riddler-green suit of his? Anastasia wasn't sure what was worse: the assault on her eyes at the sight of it or the fact that a ROCK had just been dropped on top of her legs. Damn shorts!
"Yeah... sure... that's.................... fine." She picked the rock up and gave it an 'ugh' look, then hastily set it down on the bench beside her. No it would not be sitting on her legs, no thanks. It wasn't going anywhere, anyway.
She politely clapped as Flamsteed's loud mouth called the next shot for her. Go Puffs!

"Thanks!" Bunz's frown turned up a little as at least FINA had no dumb news of cows and pet rocks and whatever. She giggled at the woman's comment about sitting between two puffs... heh... and the stood up suddenly as the two seekers went into a dive for the snitch. EEEEEEEEEK!
"GO SUMMERS GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
