Grandmother:

One of the Hufflepuff boys told me that I wasn't a bad Chaser for a girl. I don't want that. Why does it have to have that 'for a girl' part added on to it? Why can't I just be a good player regardless of my sex? Eunice is the best seeker at Hogwarts and she's a girl. And all of the Holyhead Harpies are witches and they almost beat ( Read more... )

Hullo. I hope I'm not intruding, but you seem upset.

Don't tell me someone was stupid enough to say something like that to you? Who was it and what did you turn him into?

Someone said that to you!!What did you do to them? I can't believe it

*scowls at the absent boy*
Aye. Someone did. And I taught him a wee lesson, I think.

*shakes her head*
Don't have to apologise. He was a bastard and you are lucky. I think Eunice would make a fine captian. She's our Seeker. Sixth year and best Seeker I've ever seen.

Bet it was a fine lesson

Do you think Eunice will get to be Capitan? Or is there just too much prejudice? Harry is the best Seeker I have ever seen. Absolutely amazing! Pulled off a passable Wronski Feint, second try, in his fourth year. Brilliant. The Slytherins hate it.
