A day at Seamus's house

[alt_neville]

I've never been in a house as fancy as Mr Rosier's before, and with servants and house elves and everything. The brooms that Mr Rosier had for everybody for Quidditch were real fast, so I sat out the games, but I'm sure nobody minded. I just cheered for everybody. It was fun to see Fred and George Weasley play something other than the beater position. Ron, your sister's great at seeking, I was impressed! I guess she must have played a lot of pick up games with you and your brothers, right? Not that Hydra Lestrange was bad at it or anything, I mean.

And the food! Wow. Just about as good as a Hogwarts feast. Anyway, I had a great time, thanks Seamus. And thanks to Mr Rosier, of course.

I did not! What a fib!

All I said was that I always get the last pick of the brooms. And you know that's true.

Who's the fibber, Gin? You said we never let you play unless we need you to even the teams, and you were all whingeing about how we're just mean to you.

I mean after listening to you go on and on about it, she was asking me why we don't ever let you play!

And y'know what? We totally shouldn't. In fact, I don't think we will let you play again until you're big enough not to moan and tell stories to our friends.

Oh, please. Last pick of brooms? You were standing right there last time when Percy made me take the really wonky one so you wouldn't get hurt. And, of course, I couldn't say no 'cause we had people over and it wouldn't be nice.

What a dirty great whiner! Honestly.

You should try to get Sorted into Slytherin Ginny! Pansy and I will be ever so much nicer to you than your load of brothers! Wouldn't it be nice to get away from that lot for a while? And you could have Hydra as a housemate too!

You won't ever get to be a Seeker on our house team though, not with Harry playing. But if you do get onto the Quidditch team you'll get to be on a team that wins a lot and wouldn't that be nice?

How much control do you have over where you get sorted, really? It would really be strange if I were sorted anywhere but into Gryffidor, since every member of my family has been one.

But that might be good, really. No pesky brothers . . .

Everyone else in my family was in Ravenclaw. But I wanted to be Sorted into Slytherin and I was. I mean you might be placed in Gryffindor even if you wanted to be in Slytherin but it matters what you want.

I mean you are your own person, not JUST Weasley Septimus or whatever the Headmistress will end up calling you.

And you're a pureblood
