Lake Gooseberry Shinny, Game 1

Despite the balmy weather that allowed for yesterday's Polar Bear Plunge, the lake just north of the docks has been deemed solid enough (or near enough to solid) for the first game of Lake Gooseberry Shinny, the student-run intramural hockey team. Players and spectators both make their way down to the designated 'rink' where Mr. Thorn has delimited the safest ice with neon yellow markers.

As they arrive, each player receives their team assignment, a pinny in the colour of their team (yellow for the Pennywise Pixies and black for the Goosey Griffins), and their Choose-Your-Bruise badge. Every badge is in the shape of a circle except for Sybilla Borgin, whose badge is shaped like a birthday cake, and Ty Hawkeswood, whose badge is shaped like a pansy.

A red rectangle is charmed into the ice to show the rink's boundaries, and the goals are each two piles of snow connected by a thick blue line in the ice.

Quinn Cunningham gathers both teams together to explain the rules:

RULES

No wands on the ice
Players must abide by the Personal Contact Policies
Any player found to be ignoring the badge system will be banned from the next game. If the player's disregard for the rules continues, the player will be banned from the league.
Players are not allowed to administer contact beyond their own level. (ex. Green badges cannot check Red badges and vice-versa.)
There are no positions or goalies.
As the teams are so large this year, the game duration has been extended to two hours to allow each player ample time on the ice. Each player will spend at least 10 minutes on the bench (with 7–8 benched at a time).
Helmets and mouthguards are mandatory for all players, any other padding is left to the discretion of the student. Figure skates are not allowed for safety reasons.
For their safety, no students are allowed to cross the neon yellow markers.

TEAM 1. THE PENNYWISE PIXIES & TEAM 2. THE GOOSEBERRY GRIFFINS: The puck drops at 9:30. Push the tiny thing towards the larger thing and try not to let anybody else get it!

RESULTS: Goals will be reported here.

SPECTATORS & BENCHES: Temporary benches (at times makeshift) have been set up on the shore, and all students and staff are welcome to cheer on their favourite team. Blankets and warming charms are recommended, and hot chocolate is available.

Each team has its own bench closest to the shore for players currently not on the ice.

AFTER THE GAME: Players have just enough time to stow their gear before filing into the cafeteria for lunch. Merciless gloating is basically tradition by this point.

	IF YOU HAD TRIED HARDER LEVI Chris definitely pulls Levi aside numerous times to explain to him that booping your boyfriend on the nose IS NOT PLAYING FUCKING HOCKEY QUIT FUCKING OFF LEVI (that's exactly how his tone raises dramatically) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	90 percent of Levi getting shoved to the ice is by Chris. lbr, Chris shoves Levi to the ground the second he boops him. CHRIS IS JUST HERE TO HAVE A GOOD TIME LEVI AND HE REALLY JUST FEELS LIKE ATTACKING YOU RIGHT NOW (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	AS IF THAT ISN'T WHAT LEVI WANTS TO BEGIN WITH. PUTTING THEM ON THE SAME TEAM DIDN'T HELP MUCH, QUINN. He lets out a gleeful laugh and tries to swipe his leg at Chris's legs to kick him down on the ice with him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Chris literally made a pact with himself 'i'm not gonna touch levi, i promised quinn no fighting' and within the first ten minutes, he's probably already shoved levi to the ground because levi is just so good at pissing him off.

He's prolly gonna make that same pact for the february game and levi is gonna do some dumb shit in the air within the first ten minutes and blow a hole in that plan.

	he didn't even meannnn to get into a physical fight, he just wanted to be annoying. but who is he to pass one up when chris has so generously given the first hit? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He just wanted to be annoying is probably how eighty percent of their fights start. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	GODDAMNIT LEVI AT LEAST THEY'RE BOTH RED BADGES that makes their brief scuffle on the ground not as bad because it's okay, it's just hockey this is what happens in hockey (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	CHRIS HE'S ON YOUR TEAM Quinn observes this with a glare. Chris. Chris. Chris, don't ruin a good thing. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Teammates totally try to kill each other in hockey. They totally do. It's just what happens in hockey. Levi tries to lunge himself at Chris just to boop him on the nose again. In the tiniest, squeakiest voice there comes a, "Boop!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	doyouevenlift 2016-12-04 10:44 pm UTC (link)
	OH MY GOD And Chris shoves levi back to the ground and it starts all over again. I mean eventually, when Chris manages to be the bigger person and passive aggressively skate the fuck away from levi, he'll shout 'sorry' across the ice at Quinn. this is why neither of them scored any goals.

	And Levi laughs and laughs and laughs all the way over to the bench to trade out with one of the players waiting to come in. He needs a moment. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	doyouevenlift 2016-12-04 11:01 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, levi, you are the literal worst. Chris just needs to go off and aggressively body check somebody else to be productive and sexual tensionless. (Reply to this) (Parent)
