She really shouldn't. And she knew she shouldn't, which only made it worse. However, here she was, seemingly against her better judgement. She didn't know what had possessed her.

Well, of course she did. It was a Quidditch shop and she was a Quidditch player. Not that she needed anything in the store, by any means. She had her broom, her servicing kit, and just about any other gadget and or article of clothing she could ever need or want as a player. Yet, in spite of that, here she was.

She wandered in, looking at all of the inventory in the nearly empty store- something she was grateful for, because if there was one place in the world that she got recognized and asked for autographs, it would be a Quidditch supply store. She noticed signs up advertising new brooms and forced herself to walk away- her Firebolt Omega was in amazing condition, if she did say so herself, and she did not need a new leisure broom- she had two of those as it was (although in all technicality, one was Kirley's

Meghan shrugged. "It's possible, though I would be interested to hear just what you found out," she said, grinning. "Nah, it's really not that bad- just stuff that she wouldn't like me informing other people of, especially in the middle of a Quidditch shop, ya know?"

She played with the quaffle for a second, moving it from her shoulder to her elbow to her knee, then used her foot to kick it back to Angelina. "Hey, I think I'm getting the hang of this. It's certainly good training for hand-eye coordination- so to speak."

"Point. There are better venues for that kind of information. Some that include icecream. And wine. No, scratch that. Just obscene amounts of icecream."

She looked nervously at Alicia at the mention of alcohol. She hadn't been drinking since her, well, not so much talk as yelling match with Lee. It wasn't exactly easy, but she was doing her best throwing her into other types of activities. Sometimes her whole body screamed for her to slow down but she didn't are to try.

"Does Penny play too? Maybe we can lure her onto a broom as well. We'd have half a team!"

"Ice cream is the food of the gods," Meghan agreed. "You, my dear, are obviously a kindred spirit."

"Penny's just plain Quidditch mad, to use her terms. So yeah, we could probably get her arse on a broom without doing too much convincing." She smirked. "So let's see, that's two Chasers, a Keeper, and whatever the hell Pen decides to play...yeah, that's a good start." She grinned, sending the ball towards Alicia with her elbow.

"You realize that if we were all on the same team we would conquer the world. In fact the sheer amount of hotness concentrated in one single team might be too much for the world to handle."

Alicia bounced the ball a few times on her knee while she thought for a moment. Alicia passed off the ball before finally talking.

"In all honesty though it sounds like a great idea. It was an absolute blast the other day playing, even if it was just goofing around it felt great to be in the air again."

[rar_meghan]

"You make an excellent point." Meghan paused, thinking an idea through before stopping what she was doing, and holding the ball. "We should stage a coup. You know, take over the government via Quidditch and, as you said, Alicia, our hotness."

"But yeah, it was fabulous, actually being able to fly. There have been precious little opportunities for that of late."

[rar_angelina]

"Sounds great", Angelina said. "More Quidditch to the people. And hot women. All at once."

[rar_meghan]

"Let them eat Bludgers!"

Meghan paused. "Wait. Except that sounds incredibly dirty."
