CRACK! Tinny had unfortunately been too busy to see the last match of the Hogwarts Season but had made sure that she wasn't going to miss the final match of the year since her team had won every match. "GO SNAKEY!" Tinny shouted as she jumped up and down on the stands waving the Slytherin Banner she had 'borrowed' once more. She was sure her favorite team in the whole world was going to win because they always did. "TINNY WILL PUNISH HERSELF IF YOU LOSE!" she shouted out with glee. She was a true fan through and through and would support her team through the good and the bad times!
 
Nicole grimaced as she made her way into the stands, worried as the stairs shifted ever so slightly in the high wind. She's wrapped up tight today, wearing her hair pulled back and her scarf around her neck to fight of the cold wind. She was excited that Slytherin had won the house cup, hopeful that they'd win this match as well to tie it all off undefeated. Grabbing her seat, Nicole pointedly ignored the nearby house elf that was yelling in the stands, feeling a bit uncomfortable. Instead she focused on the Beauxbaton's team as the game started, trying not to get too starry-eyed at how cool the older girls on the team looked.
 
Lumio grinned happily when he spotted Lucas sit down next to him. He had interacted with the boy a few times up to now and he seemed pretty fun. He nodded in agreement, "It's so cool that the Beauxbatons students are here," the gryffindor said with a tone of agreement, hoping very. much that slytherin would win, but happy too that they were watching an international quidditch game. "Do you like quidditch much?" he knew it was perhaps a little silly a question since they were both at a quidditch game, but he was curious to know how interested in quidditch Lucas was. Lumio stopped and cheered as the game got started.
 
Professor Kingsley was glad she'd thrown her Gryffindor sweater on today. It was a bit chilly for her, though she was always cold. The woman was happy to see one final game for the season, and she hoped HNZ would come away with the victory. The woman settled into a place on the stands, ready to cheer Slytherin on.
 
Onyx wasn't about to miss this game either. He had asked Isla to meet him here, but wasn't sure if she would. He found an empty seat, glad to be early this time and glad he didn't see Chrys or Elio anywhere. He sat with his Slytherin scarf, waving back at his sister, smiling warmly. He would he okay. It might take a while, but they'd be alright.

Jacob booed loudly as Beauxbatons scored a goal. He shook his head, wondering how the Slytherin keeper could have fallen for that feint. Glancing around, Jacob spotted his mom and then further along, Onyx. The teen grinned and then headed over, plopping himself down in an empty seat beside his dormmate and ex. "Saph excited for today?" he asked. His friendship with both of the twins had cooled over the years but he still hung out with them on occasion and considered them friends
@Onyx Michaels
 
Padme hadn't interested in Quidditch, she had always liked hearing about it, but actually going was a different thing, but with it being the last game of the year and any opportunity to do something was. something that she wanted to do. Padme arrived at the quidditch pitch as it seemed that Hogwarts scored. She cheered along with everyone else who was in the stands. She walked along until the girl spotted a little space to sit. She sat down as the game kept going. This would be fun, she could get into it. She could cheer on the slytherin team without minding. She hoped that slytheirn would win but wouldn't mind if beauxbatons won either.
 
Onyx looked up, surprised to see Jake. "Your majesty," he grinned, looking back out at the pitch. "She'd be happier if she hit something. I know she felt pretty useless the last match." Onyx smiled shyly at the boy. "Where ya been, your royalness?"

Elliot was still a little sad that his quidditch season was over, he'd always secretly hoped Hufflepuff could be the team that made it to the inter-school game. Still, Elliot was ready to tentatively cheer for Hogwarts to win today, if not specifically Slytherin. Mostly, he wanted to watch the game to see Leda in action again, and it didn't hurt to see what sort of style the Beauxbatons team had either. He was surprised to see Blake in the air as the game started, curious why Leda would want to sit out her last game. It was disappointing to not get to watch Leda play, she was definitely one of the best seekers at their school, but Elliot realized with a sinking feeling that it would be good to see Blake play since he'd likely be up against him starting next year.
 
The games against the other schools were ones Lysander was excited for the most (except any of the Gryffindor ones, naturally), and he was still pretty disappointed that he didn't have the chance to play against them himself. Instead, he had to look forward to watching Leda smash the competition. He sat down with a bag of snacks, unable to find his friends straight away, and watched the players take into the air. Leda was missing, which confused him, and he was annoyed seeing Jasper flying around. After the last match, he looked forward to a chance to get him back for being a jerk. Eventually he spotted Nicole nearby, and swapped spots to join her. "Hi!" He smiled, settling down in the empty seat. He didn't get a chance to say more, as there was a commotion on the pitch, and he leaned forward to get a better look. "Woah, check it out! The Beauxbatons seeker got took out!" He said. It hadn't even been that long! Sander was glad he'd not had to come up against the Slytherin beater in their last game, if he was that good. He glued his eyes to him, hoping to learn something new that would help him do just as good next time.​

Nicole watched as Beauxbatons and Slytherin exchanged points, cheering when the Slytherin chaser made their goal. Their beaters were also on fire and Nicole was a little sad Liam Waldgrave was going to be graduating soon. She smiled when Lysander joined him, happy to have someone to cheer with. She forgot sometimes he was actually on the Gryffindor team and not just an alternate like most kids in their year. "Hey-" Nicole started to greet Lysander, her attention turning back to the game and Liam hit the poor French seeker again and this time Nicole could tell something was wrong, even before the ref blew the whistle. She gasped sympathetically, covering her mouth. "Oh no! That looked like it really hurt, I hope she's okay," Nicole said, watching the scramble for Beauxbaton's to sub out. @Lysander Summers
 
Noel was ofcourse gonna watch this game. A bit grumpy because he wanted to play himself but he figured he would cheer for his brother and Slytherin once. It would be nice if their school won ofcourse. He smiled as he saw some familliar faces. Smiling at Jacob and further Professor Kingsley as he walked by. And than taking a seat next to Lysander their beater. The game was exited the chasers from Beauxbatons did a good thing. But than Liam?! Noel had to make sure he didn’t dreamed. And before he knew it he heard Lysander saying the seeker of Beauxbatons was out. A Slytherin girl responded. Indeed that must really hurt. “ Woo. Heavy.” He than said. He remembered when Minnie was out of a game. Bludgers did hurt. Noel smiled once in his life s bit proud that he was Liam’s brother instead of embarresment. “ THAT’S MY BROTHER!” He than yelled out of excitement. Grinning a bit at his own reaction, Liam didn’t had to know that. He And cheered for Slytherin. And when another seeker came in for Beauxbatons Liam managed to hit it again. “ What’s happening? He normally was really bad.” Noel looked at Lysander and the Slytherin girl for a moment to see how they react.

Grace knew she was quite possibly the only person in the stands rooting for Beauxbatons, so she showed her pride by wearing her old school colors. She had a definite soft spot for the Beauxbatons Quidditch team, as she had been the team's captain in her final three years at Beauxbatons. She didn't recognize any of the people on the team as ones she had played with, but she still felt protective of them. But so far, this game was not in their favor. Grace put her head in her hands as she watched the second seeker get carted off to the hospital wing. She peeked through her fingers to watch the game again, noticing for the first time that Professor Kingsley was nearby. She sighed, lowering her hands and smiling a little sadly at the woman. "This isn't going very well for our guests." She commented, glancing at the field as one of the chasers took over for seeker.

"Oh, here and there" Jacob responded vaguely. He'd been pretty busy with quidditch and classes. Liam was on a roll and for a while, Jacob just watched him go. He had to give it to the guy and found himself cheering as he took out a seeker and then shortly after, the other came out with Sapphire's help. "There you go!" He cheered, knowing her frustrations. He turned to Onyx for a high-five. When things had settled a bit, he turned to the guy. "What about you? What have you been up to?"
@Onyx Michaels
 
Onyx bit his lip, watching how frustrated his sister was. He cheered with Jake, returning his high five. He squirmed a little at the question. "Nothing really... Broke up with my boyfriend..." He admitted nervously. "You know me, I just... Play drums and goof off," he shrugged. "Is it just me or is that seeker showing off more than he's working?" He asked, looking to change the subject.

@Jacob Kingsley
 
Lysander grinned as Noel joined him. "Your brother is awesome!" He said, watching the Slytherin beaters fly around and hit bludgers left and right. He was on the edge of his seat, gasping as their alternate seeker was taken out, too. "No way!" He said. Was that it? Had they won? He couldn't lean any further if he tried, doing his best to figure out what was going on until a third Beauxbatons seeker was announced. This match was insane, and he was loving every minute of it. "We've won this, no doubt." He said, offering his snacks to the other two beside him. While disappointed he wasn't out there flying around on the pitch, he was excited to be watching.​
When the third seeker somehow managed to catch the snitch, Lysanders jaw dropped open in shock and he jumped out of his seat. He couldn't believe it. Slytherin had been a clear victory after all the work they'd put in, it seemed unreal that they'd not win. "I can't believe it! How did we lose?" He shouted. Leda was there now too, arguing with the Beauxbatons players. If she'd been in the match, Hogwarts would have won for sure.​

"Of course he's showing off, it's Blake," Isla said, appearing behind Onyx and wrapping her arms round his neck in a hug from behind. She knew Blake from classes, he was pretty arrogant in general so this wasn't anything unusual. "Come on, move over," she said, squeezing in between both the boys although she didn't have a clue who the other one was. "Some kids on the stairs kept "ooo"ing and "aaahh"ing. What I miss?" she asked, peering out across the pitch to see how Sapphire was doing. Isla had still never met the girl but it seemed she was the only reason she was invited and ever came to witness these matches. Quidditch was not usually her thing in the slightest.
 
Onyx nearly jumped out of his skin when Isla spoke from behind him, bringing a hand up to press against her arm around his neck. "Izzy," he scolded lightly. "You're late. And you scared me," he stuck his tongue out at her, scooting over to give her room. He quickly explained what happened, how Liam and Sapphire had taken out two seekers already and almost had the third. But then the other team one. He yelled loudly in protest.

And then the teams were arguing. His eyes widened. "Jake," he called nervously. Sapphire had worked really hard not to fight. What was going to happen?

@Isla Zephyr @Jacob Kingsley
 
Nicole was starting to feel a little sick watching the game, she knew Quidditch could be violent, but it was hard to watch the other team get beaten quite so literally. She nodded politely when one of the chasers from the Gryffindor team joined them, politely announcing that Liam was his brother. Nicole still wanted Slytherin to win, she did, but she couldn't help but feel bad for the poor Beauxbatons players. "I wish we would hurry up and win then.." She said, wincing at yet another bludger hit.

Nicole half stood in her seat when she saw Blake shoot off again like he'd seen the pitch, already starting to cheer despite the Beauxbatons third seeker somehow taking two more bludgers. She had to blink in confusion when there was a pause and silence in the crowd and it was relieved the Beauxbaton's had somehow got the snitch. After all that, Slytherin lost. "What??" Nicole said, baffled. And now it seemed like there was a squabble on the pitch too. "Well that's not very good sportsmanship," She said, frowning as one of the Beauxbatons girls threw the quaffle at poor Liam, feeling her earlier sympathy start to evaporate. @Lysander Summers @Noel Waldgrave
 
Noel watched as the game continued and didn't believed what he saw. Another beater out and now the third one was hit twice again byt Liam and Sapphire. He smiled at Lysander for a moment. Glad that people thought of awesome as Liam. He must have made fans now, all he ever wanted. But it took long for the snitch was catched and he could not believe it when Beauxbatons did. How was that possible! Noel was speechless for a moment. '' I.. don't know?'' Noel than said and just stared at a moment. He always made fun of it when Liam loses, but mostly he won so that was not much. Now he lost, his last game. And Noel actually felt for them. But than those Beauxbatons girls were onto Liam. Something he usually liked, but not this time this was just stupid. '' BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!'' Noel yelled. They had won why do this.

@Nicole Fisk @Lysander Summers
 
Professor Kingsley nodded at her colleague's words. It was true. Slytherin was taking out players left, right, and almost center. And then the game abruptly ended. The professor and many others would have been stunned into silence if an argument hadn't erupted even before a celebration could begin. "Well that isn't very sportsmanlike* the woman declared. Both teams had performed brilliantly and we're now marring the game. "That was a brilliant snitch catch" Cyndi declared, happy when Reeve seemed to notice and begin handling the situation. "Was that your school then?" she asked, realizing Grace had been cheering for Beauxbatons.
@Professor Grace Holland
 
The game grew more and more intense, and Grace found it hard to keep watching. The Slytherin beaters were doing incredibly, which was hurting the Beauxbatons team. But then the girl who was playing seeker caught the snitch, after being hit by two bludgers. Grace cheered for her team, but quickly stopped once a fight broke out. She hoped they wouldn't ruin their victory. "It was." She said, nodding. Then she looked at Cyndi as she asked about her school. "Yes." She said with a slight smile. "I used to captain the team. Played a few matches against Hogwarts here myself before I graduated." She said, nodding to the pitch.
 
Tinny had watched the match with much enthusiasm, hopping up and down as the Snake team beat up the other team. She knew they were going to win and then suddenly the match was over and looking around she discovered to her horror that they had actually lost. "What! NOOOO!!!!!" she cried as she began stomping her feat on the stands. She couldn't believe her team had lost it wasn't possible "Cheat Cheat Cheat!" she shouted in dismay. It simply wasn't possible that her team had lost when they had been doing so well. With big tears she CRACK! left the Stands so that she could punish herself properly for not being a good enough fan to bring her team to victory.
