Mazikeen had never been much of a quidditch fan, she'd gone to games and enjoyed them for what they were but rarely done more than that with it. However, with Willow playing and this being an important game for Gryffindor Maze knew it would be rude of her to not go along. She walked on to the stands, kitted out in Gryffindor and red things, the deepest gryffindor red shade of lipstick on her lips and she found a place to sit. The game would get started soon and Mazikeen was keen to watch it and hopefully celebrate a victory after. She knew both the team and Willow deserved it. ​
 
While Brooke mostly kept up with Quidditch to have something easy to talk about, she was still a little excited for today's final. She knew Slytherin was the reigning champion and she hoped they'd continue their streak again this year. She was decked out in full green today, including a green headband, and waved a little green and silver pompom as the players took to the field. Brooke was also keeping an eye out for Giselle today, hoping her dormmate wasn't looking to cause any more trouble at a match.
 
Cyzarine was excited for this final game of the year. Though she had never played quidditch she did enjoy watching it and had in fact written about it. But she wasn't writing about it this time and all the better too, that way she'd be able to actually just enjoy it. She'd be able to enjoy the game and what fun it would be. She was of course, given her house, supporting Gryffindor. Violet, her best friend, was a slytherin, but she didn't think Vi would mind if she supported her house team loudly over any other. This was for the cup after all. She walked to the stands and found herself a spot to sit in. She couldn't wait for this game to get started. It was going to be so good!​
 
Jenna liked The match of the Quidditch. She was here and spend time to dee the game and why not somtimes be alone? Jenna was thinking about something and she was not the mood today but game was try get her mood better and she looked the game.
 
Padme knew that she needed to make more effort to get more involved in the school. The lack of roses and the general loneliness had just reminded her that she had not really involved herself in this as much as she could. It just didn't come as easily to her as it seemed to for others. She found it more difficult to approach a group of friends and it seemed to Padme, that everyone in her year group had that bar her. The hufflepuff had decided to start being more involved by going to the game. She arrived at the stands and took a spot. It wasn't really like she was next to anyone, and hadn't approached anyone, but she was there and that was a first step wasn't it?​
 
Lumio was so excited for this game. He couldn't wait for gryffindor to beat slytherin and come away victorious. He was so hopeful of it. Lumio had never been much of sports or outdoorsy guy. He had always preferred to not bother with either. But quidditch, that was fun. It just happened to also involve two things he didn't like. However, it wasn't like Lumio was ever going to play quidditch, he would be much happier to just remain at the sidelines, cheer the teams on from the stands than ever play. He arrived at the pitch and immediately took a seat with a good view of the pitch. He wouldn't miss a thing from this spot.​
 
Ajaccio was a little conflicted about who to support in this game. He had friends in both houses. Though notably, he had friends on the quidditch team for gryffindor, the same could not be said for slytherin. He would probably support the former for exactly that reason. But he'd be happy whoever won. The ravenclaw arrived at the pitch and found himself a spot in the stands to sit. Glancing towards the gryffindor benches and smiling as he spotted the people he knew. Regardless of who he supported Ajax knew this was going to be a fun game.​
 
Liusaidh was ready for this game. She was so ready to watch slytherin beat gryffindor. She wanted nothing more than for that to happen. The slytherin would've supported any house team she'd been in but she was thankful she'd ended up in a house with a good team. A great team. She'd been thinking about trying out when she was a second year. She wasn't much for organised sports, but quidditch ran in her family. She could prove it. She had to be good. She was kitted out for this game, green paint stripes on her forehead and cheeks, magical green hairspray on her ginger hair. As she glanced about she spotted Brooke in the crowd. So she went over to her, "Brooke! Ye ready fae this?"​
 
As much as Elliot hated how Hufflepuff's Quidditch season had ended this year, he wasn't about to miss the final today. Moving through the crowded stands, it felt a lot like half the school had had the same idea. Spotting Lars, Elliot made his way over, figuring with how things were slowly getting back to some place close to being friends again, he might appreciate the company. "Lars hey, mind if I sit?" He said, raising his voice a little be heard over the crowd around them before he noticed Lars wasn't alone. "Oh, hey Minnie," He said, ducking his head a bit now very interested in a bit of soil he'd found under his nails. "Uh, who are you two cheering for?" Elliot didn't hold any grudge against Minnie for winning, she was a great seeker, but he still felt a bit sore over the loss and it was a bit hard not to feel awkward around her. @Lars van Houten @Minnie Calida
 
Brooke turned her head when she heard Liusaidh, grinning at seeing her roommate all decked out in their house colours. "Reigning champs, right?" She said in confirmation, scooting over some to make more room for Liusaidh. Brooke was a firm believer that it was good to stay on Liusaidh's good side, even if she seemed prone to trouble. She had a big personality, and those tended to attract a good circle of connections, as long as Brooke didn't get dragged into Liusaidh's more troublesome endeavors as well. @Liusaidh Fergusson
 
While the violence of Quidditch sometimes made Nicole's stomach churn, she wasn't about to miss the final, especially when Slytherin was up with a chance to be champion again. Picking her away along the stands, Nicole beamed when she spotted Jenna already seated, making her way over to her. "Jenna, yay, you're here. Cheering for Slytherin, right?" She said brightly, giving Jenna a quick hug. "I think I saw Ajax's big hair nearby too, yep there he is," She said, scanning the crowd. "Do you think he'd want to sit with us maybe? Hey, Ajax!" Nicole called over the crowd, waving a hand hello to try and get Ajax's attention. @Jenna Jusantrea @Ajaccio Skey
 
Harper hadn't yet been to a Quidditch match, but she knew she had to change that today. Gryffindor was playing in the finals, and she needed to support her house, even if she thought the sport was a bit silly. Someone had once tried to explain it to her as "football but with flying," which had definitely captured her interest. But then she'd learned about the whole snitch thing, and her enthusiasm had died. What was the point of anything if catching the snitch was worth 150 points and ended the game?

But she could get over her quibbles with the game for a few hours if it meant supporting her house. Harper arrived at the stadium wearing a red Gryffindor t-shirt and dark red running shorts. She had also threaded red and gold ribbons through her ponytail. Harper couldn't spot any of her friends, but she was sure one of them would eventually show up. She made her way toward the back, figuring it'd be a good idea to be as high up as possible. Nothing was happening yet, which was boring, so she decided to try and see if she could get a chant going. "GRY-FFIN-DOR! GRY-FFIN-DOR!" she shouted, clapping her hands to the syllables.
 
Professor Kingsley rushed to the stands, happy the game hadn't yet begun. She'd promised her son she wouldn't miss a minute of the game. It would be his final game as a Gryffindor and she hoped to see him celebrating by the end. Professor Kingsley unfurled a small sign she'd created that read 'Go Gryffindor!' and gave it a small shake.
 
"Nicol, of course, I'm here!" That was hard asking who she was cherring up and mayby she was from Gryffindor. "Not realy!" She gave her best friend hug and she was so thankfuly to Nicol becouse Nicol get Jennas mood realy better and she was not alone. "You need him ask about this! How is going Lysander?" Mayby Nicol know about Lysander and she wanted him cheer up.

@Nicole Fisk
 
Liusaidh gave a wide grin as Brooke let her sit next to her. She was very eager for this game and boooed loudly upon kick off when the gryffindors caught the quaffle. "Of course," she said, "Ah'm thinking aboot joinin' the team next year," she told Brooke absently, her attention still very much on the game. She was not going to be distracted too much by anything. "Dae ye think Rosenberg's gonna show her ugly face?" Lisuaidh cheered loudly as the gryffindor's failed to score and the quaffle was back in slytherin hands. ​
 
Ajaccio was minding his own business when someone calling out his name sounded across the way. he frowned lightly and glanced round immediately finding the source and smiling. He waved happily at her and then got to his feet walking over to them. He was always happy to spend more time around Nicole and he liked Jenna too. "Hey guys," he said, he would have to be a little more supportive of slytherin perhaps while around her. "Am I going to need to stop supporting Gryffindor while I'm with you both?" he joked as he took a seat next to Nicole and Jenna.​
 
Lars gave a guilty start as Minnie appeared at his side. He had been staring at Blake, and he hoped she hadn't noticed it. "Of course not." He said quickly. "Are you going to take notes?" He added, joking lightly. Then Elliot joined, and Lars felt even more strange guilt about looking at Blake earlier. The match started, and he shrugged at Elliot's question. "I'm neutral, I think." He admitted. "My sister is in Gryffindor, but she's an alternate so I doubt she'll play." He watched the game unfold, and gasped softly as the first bludger hit Blake. He barely paid attention to the chasers or keepers, his gaze trained on the Slytherin seeker. He winced as he was hit again, and he barely noticed as Slytherin scored. Then the third bludger hit, and Lars' hand flew to his mouth. He winced as he saw the nurse escort Blake off the pitch, feeling oddly dizzy. He remembered how Blake had apologized to him, and realized all at once that without Tyler, he wasn't sure if anyone would go to the Hospital wing to visit him. Before he really knew what he was doing, Lars got to his feet. "I... I have to go." He said to Minnie and Elliot vaguely, looking at neither of them. Then he started stepping over other people's legs to get out of the stands, not looking back at the game or at the people he had been with.

@Elliot Briar @Minnie Calida
 
Minnie nodded, "Of course," she replied as if it were just so super obvious that she would. Which in her mind it very much was. She blushed a little as Elliot appeared she felt bad for the other seeker. "Hey, Elliot," she replied a little shyly. She knew him from others, because of quidditch, but given the recent loss. She nodded as lars said he was neutral. "Same, but my boyfriend is on the gryffindor team so maybe more Gryffindor. You?" she was supporting him specifically but not necessarily the team as a whole. She watched quietly, making the occasional note as the game progressed. eventually resulting in the slytherin seeker getting hit three times. She winced for each knowing how hard they hit. She was a little surprised when Lars stood up and rushed away as the Slytherin seeker was removed from the pitch. Minnie nodded but looked to Elliot with a little shrug. She didn't know what else to say, and just reached up and lightly touched the seeker necklace that Leda had given her, something she occasionally did when nervous. And though it looked like she wanted to say something to Elliot, instead she just looked back at her notes and added a few about what had just happened in the game.​
 
"Yeah, I'm pretty neutral too," Elliot said cautiously, smiling when Minnie mentioned her boyfriend was on the Gryffindor team, though he wasn't sure who it was. Honestly, Elliot was definitely cheering for Gryffindor more, he just didn't want to admit it and come across too bitter about losing to Blake last semester. He thought it was funny Lars wasn't cheering for his sister automatically, but he just shrugged. Lars could be weird like that. Their attention was quickly taken up by the game though, and talking fell to the wayside as Elliot watched the match. The chasers were moving quick, but Gryffindor's beaters were moving quicker, and even though Elliot wasn't a big fan of Blake's, his gut still clenched uncomfortably in sympathy with every bludger hit. When Blake was knocked out, Elliot grimaced, looking away as he was pulled from the game. Lars seemed upset too, and Elliot watched, puzzled, as Lars suddenly stood, abruptly leaving. "Lars, wait, what-" Elliot started, but he didn't move to stop him, glancing awkwardly at Minnie and back to the pitch. "Man.. Bludgers, right?" He offered Minnie, weakly. @Minnie Calida
 
Nicole gave Jenna a mock offended look when she said she wasn't cheering for Slytherin, making sure to smile after so Jenna knew she was joking. "Well, it'll be a shame that you've been cheering for the losing team," She said simply, pleased when Ajax came over and joined them. "Oh you too? Slytherin are the champs, come on," She groused, giving Ajax a gentle push.

She cheered when Slytherin managed to block a goal and take possession, bouncing in her seat as their own chasers approached the hoops and cheering again as they made their own goal. "You sure you don't wanna cheer for Slytherin-" She started, stopping as there was an awful noise of bludger hitting player and the whistle blowing. "Oh no, poor Blake," Nicole lamented, face drawn as Blake was escorted off the field and Paige Thompson was subbed in. "He didn't deserve that, I wish Quidditch wasn't so violent." @Jenna Jusantrea @Ajaccio Skey
 
"I'm joking Nikol!" She giggled and she wanted a little her friend get angry. Jenna smiled and looked the game again why she can today forgot her thoughts.
 
Brooke watched closely as the game began, disappointed that she couldn't see the snitch at all. She smiled at Liusaidh's booing, joining in albeit a lot quieter. "Oh really? What would you play?" She asked curiously. "And I sure hope not, she brings the mood down," Brooke said, shaking her head. It would be great to be friends with a member of the team if Liusaidh made it on the team. Slytherin was able to block Gryffindor's shot and score when they had possession and Brooke cheered. Moments later though, their seeker was knocked out and Brooke groaned, squinting at Blake Irons seemed to resist even the nurse escort. "Wow, our captain's very dedicated," She commented mildly, feeling for him. @Liusaidh Fergusson
 
Ajaccio gave a little laugh, "I have more friends on the gryffindor team, my only slytherin friend is you Nicole," he joked with her, but of course he wouldn't mind if Slytherin won they had a strong team, demonstrated by the goal by the Slytherin. He laughed lightly as she'd begun speaking but it faded away as the Slytherin seeker was hit by a third bludger and therefore out of the game. "It's a very harsh sport. I hope he's alright," Ajax knew magic could fix up a whole number of things, but it still likely hurt. Ajax looked towards jenna and gave a little smile, she seemed pretty quiet towards him. "Hows this going to affect Slytherin's chances?"​
@Nicole Fisk @Jenna Jusantrea
 
Liusaidh shrugged slightly, "Chaser probably, all ae ma brother play chaser positions," The slytherin replied with a shrug, but she didn't particularly care what position she would end up in. Liusaidh would just be in whatever position she should be given. After all the captain would be silly to not include her in it. She laughed in agreement, "Aye she does doesn't she?" Liusaidh agreed, at least at these events she was the worst, otherwise she was boring at best. She cheered loudly at the goal and frowned as the captain got taken out. "As he should be, a captain should go down fae his team. He'll be fine though, and the slytherin's just need tae focus and get the snitch,"​
 
Nicole shook her head at Jenna, laughing at her friend. "Joke all you want, Slytherin'll still win," She said confidently, trying to keep an eye on Paige as Gryffindor took possession. "I don't know how good Paige is at seeking, but she's pretty tough, so I figure we've got this," Nicole said slowly, watching her roommate search the pitch. Then Gryffindor hit their poor keeper with a bludger right as Gryffindor took their shot and Nicole boo'd as it went in. "Aw c'mon can they do that? That doesn't seem fair!" @Jenna Jusantrea @Ajaccio Skey
