"I always loved to play, but going pro? I think it was a default. Everyone expected me to go into the Ministry, become an Auror like Dad, follow his footsteps, become Head of a Department like him, grandpa and Uncle Percy and eventually be elected Minister like Aunt Hermione. I might still do that, but I wanted to get to her job through Quidditch and not the Aurors. It's not like I'm going to kill the greatest Dark Wizard at seventeen, so anyone being compared to Dad will lose by default. So since it wasn't the Aurors, it was Quidditch. Mum used to play."
