Ragmar stared into his drink, the amber liquid distorting the parchment that was on the bar in front of him. "We'd formally like to offer you employment as the Head Manager for the Chudley Cannons." He read that sentence 4 times and still couldn't believe it. He was going to be MANAGER. That was a bid deal, right? His head buzzed with the news. Ever since his injury, Ragmar had felt like he was less of a man. Who was he if not a brilliant Chaser? But now? He'd have a team all to his own to train. Of course, it was the Cannons. They'd come in last the previous 3 years. But that didn't mean anything, really. Ragmar could make them great. He knew he could.
He was still smiling when he caught a flash of red on the other side of the bar. His interest was caught, enough for him to finish his drink, and call Tom over to pour him another, and a second for the mysterious redhead that he'd spotted sitting alone. She looked young, sure, but she also smiled to herself and he was feeling good enough, young enough, that he thought he could talk to anyone at all right now.
After getting his drinks, Ragmar gathered them up and made his way over, sitting next to her and sliding the drink in front of her. "I'm celebrating, would you mind joining me?"
