Private Message to Parkinson and Zabini

[alt_padma]

I thought it might be useful to do a little strategising ahead of Saturday.

I'm looking forward to working with you both. I'm not worried about Su Li, she's actually really clever and pretty well-rounded. Bundy will be fine, too, don't you think? Depends on what we've got to do. MacMillan's strength is in keeping people together, at least from what I've seen, so maybe he'll do best at the sorts of challenges that require loads of coordination.

What about the third-years? Is there anyone we should definitely try to get early in the draft? Oh, and Zabini, do you want Mlle Durand on our team, or not on our team? Because I figure Draco will put his cousins on his team, and then Hydra will likely want Finch-Fletchley. And we have to have at least one each of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, right?

So let me know what you two think and maybe we can all meet as a team, the six of us, before Saturday?

Sure, sounds brill. If only because perhaps then Midgen will stop going on and on about not getting invited to that get-together Saturday. (Honestly, was it really all that amazing?)

Let's talk about it more tomorrow? You're always a great one for the music and such. Makes a difference, don't you think? And maybe Greengrass could get her mum to send up some food, since it's ever so much better than what the elves can come up with for us.

It was well-intended, and there was good food, but I think we can do better.

We can talk more about it tomorrow, certainly. And yes, I was planning on asking Daphne to co-host from our house, because she really is fantastic at it.
