Good. Now I don't have to check every book out of the library or kidnap freshmen to be buddies anymore.

[Ebonhide Quidditch.]
Your attendance is expected but negotiable at the Ribbonfin/Coppertale game on Sunday. I don't care who you cheer for, but watch their chasers and try to find weaknesses we'll be able to catch in play. Watch the beaters and already be thinking how to avoid them. People don't change the way they fly from game to game much, so this is an excellent learning opportunity.

	I can deal with that name. Thanks, Webb. Light stalking pays off sometimes. Just in quidditch though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	From what I can tell it's not uncommon. I've listened to the way Americans talk about baseball. They've developed a whole new language to explain their stalking. To be the best we have to know the best. It's a much more strategic approach than booking the pitch every day for two weeks straight. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No, definitely it isn't. I haven't studied that with baseball enough. Doesn't surprise me though. That's why I'm doing it. Only time I'll beat Stoker to the sign up sheet is if we're getting sloppy. So let's not. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Wise words, sensei Fiori. According to Friday Night Lights, Americans review recordings of rival teams in preparation for games. Just an idea. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I played football; can verify. That's something I've been considering actually. If we're allowed to record. Good ideas. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	The freshmen suffered most. Seniors have so much to do, so many places to be, and we're so intimidating. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I think it was good for them. We showed them around campus, so they won't get lost, so a freshman doesn't go bizarrely missing, so we don't have to have the buddy system reinstated. You're welcome. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Perhaps you are right. Perhaps you forcing freshmen to go on tours of the paths between Ebonhide, the Quidditch pitch and the library over and over will do some lasting good. My deepest gratitude. Why are you not a prefect, Leonardo? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can't think of other places they'd need to be. And I've been asking myself that for years. I assume sabotage. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	firstposition 2016-11-04 12:33 pm UTC (link)
	Those are two of the three best places on campus. Do you think that Nathaniel is capable of sabotage? Or was Ms. Rhee just afraid you would go mad with power? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's the quiet ones you have to watch for. And I don't think teachers care much about power hungry. You got a badge. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yes, and the rest of the school has suffered ever since. Notice that I am not Head Boy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
