Private Message to Daphne Greengrass

Daphs,

I wonder if you'd like to sit with me at the Quidditch Cup. Mother's accepted Mr Karkaroff's invitation to join him as his plus-one, so she said you could have her seat by me, if you'd like.

She said Mr Karkaroff promised to introduce us to Bulgaria's Seeker, Krum, after the match. Apparently he's a bit of a special protégé of Karkaroff's; they're travelling back together, in any case.

That's according to Mother, though, and you know Mother: if she doesn't see the point in a topic, she doesn't always listen very carefully. So I'm not getting my hopes up too much that we'll meet Krum. After all, he's dead famous and there will be press and fans and women who'll all be mobbing him after the match.
alt_daphne: (oh?)

Blaise, that would be splendid! The sixteenth tier sounded good enough but I really was dreading what a pest Queenie would be throughout the whole thing. And meeting Krum! I won't set my heart on it, but just the possibility is exciting!

Should I wear the beautiful scarf you gave me at the end of term? Will everyone be dressed up?
alt_daphne: (ah!)

You know, normally I would say your Mother has somewhat of a point, except that it's such a rare opportunity to meet a player from another country, and one as good as Krum is reputed to be, no less!

I shall wear the scarf and be on my very best behaviour, then.

What do you think Sally Anne will wear? I have to admit that I was feeling a little down about the fact that all the girls from my dorm (well, not Millie) were going to be in the Top Tier and I wasn't, so thank you again, Blaise. (And I will tell your Mother thank you in person.)
