Open? Yes, to anyone who might drop in on the game. Otherwise we'll call it a narrative. ;)
Warnings? TBD
Terence sauntered up to the ticket booth and handed over his galleons. He'd been planning this outing for at least a month, and had set aside enough gold for a good seat with a bird's-eye view of the pitch.
Ticket in hand, he passed through the gates and into the stadium, joining a throng of grey and white-clad Falcons fans. Terence was dressed in his favourite team's colours from head toe. He'd put far more thought into what he was wearing today than he had for his Halloween costume! Somewhere in the back of his wardrobe hung his old Quidditch robes, from the days when he'd played second-string Seeker for the Falcons... But how pathetic would it have been to wear them and broadcast his has-been status?
Instead, he'd painted one side of his face grey, the other white, and charmed his hair as well, half white and half grey. Terence had always been amused by fans who went to such lengths, but in his case the fool's motley had a practical purpose; the paint disguised his features. Sufficiently so, he hoped, that he'd be able to enjoy the match without anyone recognizing him.
Terence stopped at the concession stand and purchased a program and a pint--in a souvenir cup with a refilling charm, well worth every sickle--before starting the long climb up the stairs to his seat. He was early, but that was all to the good. He didn't want to miss a moment of the game.
