Alfred, you're completely insane. Breaking your teammates is a little counterproductive.

It builds character!

[makachopgo]

By causing traumatic brain injury or possibly death?

[redwhiteandhero]

Come on, I didn't hit anyone that hard.

[makachopgo]

Not that hard. With a ball made of iron that has to fly at the velocity a bludger does to remain airborne. Yeah, that doesn't have any sort of potential of hurting.

It's all good...it didn't hurt that much really.

[makachopgo]

But still, something really bad could have happened to you. Head injuries aren't something you can just walk off.

[awkwardknight]

I've been hit worse before...what's the big deal?

[makachopgo]

What is it with boys and their need to be macho?

[sticktokicks]

How is Alfred supposed to practice if he doesn't hit bludgers at people?

Learning how to dodge them is important.

[makachopgo]

He could have non-living targets made up for the beaters. It's not as though we're all that limited by conventional means.

[sticktokicks]

Well, then it's not as realistic. They do it in real games, so why not practice?

And Suzaku seems fine. I checked on him. So it's okay!

[makachopgo]

I...guess so.

Yeah, I'm glad he's okay. It looked really bad when he got taken up to the hospital wing.

[tenth_vongola]

What did he do?

[makachopgo]

During practice he hit Suzaku in the head with a bludger.

[tenth_vongola]

...is Suzaku okay?

[makachopgo]

He says he's all right, but he had to go up to the hospital wing.
