Just wanted to say, good luck to Ireland today! I know you're real excited to see them play, and I really hope they do well. I'll be wearing a shamrock for the Irish!

Thanks, Neville.

Are you in your seat yet? Mr Rosier and I come later, and that's supposed to be a benefit of Mr Rosier's status but I'm SO EXCITED I'm jealous of everyone in the lower sections that had to go get their seats already.

[alt_neville]

We've had to wait in line for a long time, but we should be in our seat sometime in the next hour or so. The line moves slowly because of the security searches.

Which Chaser do you like best: Troy, Moran or Mullet? Mullet's been with the team the longest, yeah?

[alt_seamus]

She has, yeah. Moran joined the team after I went away to school so I haven't seen her play as much. My favourite's Troy, actually, it's utterly brilliant to watch him fly, but they're all amazing, and people talk about them like they're a unit because they're so brilliant TOGETHER. They work together like they were all arms attached to the same body, if that makes sense.

Oh, so that's what people mean when they talk about the 'Irish triple.' The three Irish chasers. I was wondering.

I'm ever so glad I got to come at all. My gran isn't much for Quidditch, but the Weasleys invited me and Evelyn to have a couple of their tickets, since Ron and the twins got some tickets from Mr Selwyn.

[alt_seamus]

They did?

I guess that explains why I thought I saw them a little while ago. (I'm in the security hall for my section right now; they're checking all the wands and so on. And making sure no one's infiltrating by disguising themselves to LOOK like someone on the Council, or whatever. No excitement yet.)
