Today's YPL speaker sounds rather nift.
He's a historian, but I think it will probably be different than what we hear in our history lessons.
I know because I heard Professor Lestrange say that the speaker was a lively historian, not a deadly one.
I think my Uncle might be friends with the historian speaker, but then he knows a lot of people so who can say for sure?
I hope the YPL meetings will keep being interesting, especially since Quidditch won't be so much fun anymore.
I don't even much like the idea of going to the matches, because what if the Dementors come again?
And I know it might be rude to the other Quidditch players to say so, but the matches won't be nearly so interesting to watch without Harry playing.
I heard he's not going to be allowed now, you see.
So it won't be nearly so exciting.

So Harry really won't be allowed to play? That's dreadful news. You're right, of course - quidditch will be so dull without him to watch! And I suppose that means Draco won't be allowed to play, either. They might as well go and cancel the whole season.

I am allowed to play, actually. If I want to.

[alt_daphne]

Oh? And of course you want to, don't you?

[alt_draco]

It depends a lot on what the team wants. I might be the only person who can fill in for seeker while Harry's out.

Of course they want you to fly. And surely there's not anyone better for Seeker while Harry's grounded.

I mean, I suppose the whole team could ground themselves while he's out, on principle, but what would that serve? And no one expects the whole lot of you to sit out during scouting season; it'd be daft to put careers on the line when we've got people who are definitely pro material. Which is just another reason they'll want you at Seeker: it'll show the side in the best light.

The team has a meeting tomorrow, so I'll be sure to bring your points up. I'm sure we'll be able to work out something that works for everyone and puts Slytherin at the best advantage.
