So, um. I don't know exactly what happened, but if you need anything, just let me know? You know, somebody to talk to, a hug, distractions, help with the project, or whatever. You know I won't make you talk about it unless you want to. I'm beginning I think I need a drink, if you want to join me?

I want to know who on earth chose these pairings. Because whoever put me with Willow is a cruel, cruel person. The assignment itself isn't bad- I know I can care for a child if needed, although balancing that with schoolwork and Quidditch is madness in and of itself. But I suppose we'll figure it out.

What did I ever do to deserve this?

So. I guess we have a baby.

Hey. Um. I heard what happened with you and that stupid potion. Are you doing alright? Do you need anything?

I'm sorry. Erm. If I made you uncomfortable or did anything- um. Anything to upset you.

I've chocolate. D'you have time later? I..I just need somebody to talk to.

Hi. I just.. I don't know what I'm-

I miss you. I shouldn't say it and I don't deserve to but..I do. Sorry. I hope you're doing alright, though.

So I'm warding this to you because I don't really know who else I trust enough for this sort of thing. But. I got to thinking. Which is dangerous, yeah, but whatever.

I'm seventeen years old and I'm still a bloody virgin.

I know there's all that crock about how it's okay to wait and blah blah blah but bloody hell I feel like an inexperienced git when I read these journals sometimes. And I don't really know how to fix this problem. Granted, I'm sure you haven't had to worry about that sort of thing what with Lala and all, which you're lucky for, by the way, and I don't really want to do it with just anybody but-

Okay now I am starting to just sound like a blithering idiot.

I like my teammates. I like my teammates. I like my teammates.

Are they always this angr-


Mother of Merlin I am so tired of this tether. Could be-

Forget it.

Alright. So you may have heard about it already, but Willow and I broke up. I wanted to say something before you hear it through the grapevine-- I'm sure her teammate will have something to say.

Don't worry, though, I'm not going to let it affect my performance- I've been back to practicing, and I intend to focus on my game and my schoolwork.

It's gonna be a rough term, isn't it.

Anybody up for doing something? I know classes start back up tomorrow, but I just..I don't want to think about this stupid shite for a few hours.

You around, love? I'm on my way home, and I think- I just need some peace and quiet to sort some things through. Think you might be able to help me out? I just..need somebody to talk to.

A bloody win and I'm still getting yelled at. It's bloody shite is what it is. I know I didn't do as well as I could have, but it's not like playing Durmstrang is a walk in the park. I've gotta jump back into it. Training starts again tomorrow morning.

Hey, think you could spare a few minutes for your brother?

So I received an owl from my parents today-- I'd asked them about me going to New York with you over the holidays and they said yes!

I'm really excited- have I mentioned that?

I'm going to New York over the winter hols!

Great game guys! I'm so proud to be a part of this team!

Hey, love- do you have plans for later? I was wondering if you might be up for hanging out-- something kinda quiet and low-key?

So, mates. Holland? I can't say that I know much about Dutch cuisine, except for the fact that they like herring, right? And cheese? I know Gouda's from Holland. We probably have some research to do-- when are you all free to discuss?

It looks like we've got our work cut out for us, mates. I think we really need to ease up on the bickering and see what we can do to be as good as these guys-- I have no doubt that we've the talent to win, but we're never going to if we keep fighting amongst ourselves like children. We don't have to be the best of friends, but if we don't start to trust each other, then it just isn't going to work. And I don't know about you lot, but I really want to win this.
