"Mm, no, we never kid about Quidditch," Remus said solemnly, though his held too much of the mischievous glint to be taken seriously. "Kidding about Quidditch amoungst Potters and Weasleys must certainly fall into one of the seven deadly sins. Right before Jealousy and after Lust."
"I shall take your word for it. Only flying that's ever interested me is combat flight. I'll leave the Quidditch to you lot," he chuckled.
Remus wished it was that easy. "Who, the students or the Board? If we're lucky, the students will realise it the same way we did and step up. The Board will never acknowledge a need to teach basic survival as anything more than an interesting intellectual pursuit. They can't. They'd have to go back on generations of precedence against teaching any form of true combat knowledge."
