It's almost the end of November. The weather is getting colder everyday. Today is cloudy and gray. Almost about to rain.
You get ready with your teammates, wearing your Ravenclaw team shirt and getting your broomstick ready. Team captain Anthony is giving some inspiring speech. He says it is very important for the Flitwick to beat the Hufflepuff.
When everyone is ready and it's time, you all leave the changing room, walk through the tunnel and enter the Quidditch pitch. Everyone takes their positions on their brooms and slowly start to levitate and fly.
The whistle is blown and the match starts. Ravenclaw vs. Hufflepuff.
Roll 1d10. I'll accept the second roll.
Rolled 8 (1d10)
>>45052841
LETS GOOO
Rolled 10 (1d10)
>>45052841
I'm going to do shit!
>>45053002
Well that's not particularly bad
>>45053002
The thunder roars in the sky as it starts to rain. The Ravenclaw is really flying like eagles today. Hufflepuff is yet to score, and it's 60 to nothing.
Tim is particularly well playing today. You see the Hufflepuff seeker. "He is not that good" you tell yourself. The last year's match is still fresh in your memory. It was the cup's final. The score was even. You ended up hitting the ground and getting unconsicous while the Hufflepuff won. You will not let that happen again.
With a quick move, you start to descend in a lightning speed. The cold wind dances with your hair while the wet rain drops hits you on the face. You don't care. You hear the commentator shouting your name and crowd cheering. The Hufflepuff seeker also realizes your movements and dives.
Too bad for him, you didn't see the Snitch. You descend more and more. Just as you did in the Slytherin match last year. And suddenly break the descend and go up. You pull the perfect Wronski Feint. The older Hufflepuff seeker is way too slow for it. He dives and dives and when you suddenly stop, he couldn't. He hits the sand ground. He doesn't look like injured, thankfully.
Roll 1d10. I'll accept the second roll.
>Last thread, there was a question about if the Book Club counts as social/persuasion skill.
I am ruling that it does.
Rolled 10 (1d10)
>>45053148
Got it this time
Rolled 9 (1d10)
>>45053148
>>45053185
I was about to say no one else roll but...
>>45053245
This is pretty damn alright.
>>45053245
nice
>>45053245
You leave the poor Hufflepuff seeker behind and look at the game for a second. It's 100 to 30.
Suddenly you hear something like a high pitched cry. It sounds like an eagle. When you turn to that direction you can barely see Valdis "wearing" his Eagle face charm again. He cheers like an Eagle's cry. And then just near where they sit you see it, something shines and then quickly disappears. You lower your head and try to gain speed, fly towards there. You can see it now, the Golden Snitch flying near the crowd. As you come closer the students cheer for you. You feel confident. You dive to catch the Snitch. You come closer and closer. The score is now 110 to 40. Ravenclaw is on fire today.
You reach with your arm....and grab the Snitch. The match ends with the score of 260 to 40. A crushing victory for the Ravenclaw.
1/2
>>45053384
Hell yeah!
>>45053384
You are being carried on the shoulders of the Ravenclaw students. "Flies like an eagle! Stings like a Bee! He's Apisé!!!" Appreantly this is your new chant. You father would be annoyed how they pronounce your last name wrong but you are quite enjoying it. At least it rhymes. Kind of.
All the students are walking back to the castle as a group. Tim shouts to you, with his arm around Alice. "Hey John!! I swear you will get one of these Seekers killed one day with that trick!" Everyone laughs and the chant starts all over again.
You all enter the castle, shouting, chanting, making jokes and laughing. Mr. Filch stops your group with a look of complete annoyence on his face. "How dare you shout in the-" his rebuke is cut off with Anthony's shout "Shut up Filch! Professor here is with us!"
Also to your surprise there is Flitwick, in the middle of the group. Looking completely happy. You didn't realize he was here too because of his short height.
"The students have a right to be chanting, Filch, now make way!" he orders cheerfully. Filch stands aside, murmuring to himself.
You all climb the stairs and enter the Ravenclaw common room. Cordelia is flying around and everytime someone sees her they start your chant over again. After the initial big party, now everyone is seperated to their own "cliques".

Team spirit, man. There's still Slytherin and Gryffindor to take down.
>>45053645
Man being a Squib must be tough.
Can Filch not even make potions or do anything remotely magical?
I figured with the right ingredients even a muggle should be able to make a potion.
Or hell could he utilize stuff with enchantments already on it?
Or does literally everything require some form of magic on the practitioner's part?

You spend your time mostly with the rest of the team while occasionally chatting with others. "Well for me John, you and Tim are a part of the team no matter what. But sad news, since I am in my last year, the new captain could make new tryouts" Then he laughs. "Ohh come on I don't want to go to tryouts every year!" Tim protests while also laughing. Then the team speculates mostly on who will be the new captain.
It seems like the Keeper, 4th grader Lilly would be the new captain.
You don't mind about it really.
The rest of the day passes with the celebrations and chatting and chilling with all your friends. At the evening it starts to snow.
Next morning, you receive a letter from your aunt. Her hand writing is a bit difficult to read with lot of scrawls.
"My dear nephew John,
It is a pleasent surprise to hear from you. I am glad to hear you are having a good time in Hogwarts. I am happy to hear that Slytherin beat Gryffindor in the Quidditch. But I wish you all the luck in the competition and hope that you will win the cup. It is a very nice thing to hear that you are doing well in the potions class. I am sure you are much better than anyone in the school in that area. I will be coming this year to the Christmas dinner at your house, so we will talk more later, I need to cut short, as you can guess I don't write a lot, and in these days I think it is best to communicate face to face.
See you soon,
Aunt Luisa."

Then you see that the school newspaper has been published. Juliette was the head of the Ravenclaw section. She did the interview with you a couple of weeks ago.
You go through the journal and finally find your interview. The headline reads, "The Brave Eagle" and under it, there is a quote, "I just wanted to save my friends so I did what I had to do."
The article first goes through the events of the last year and gives some information about you and your life. After the parts about you saving your friends and defeating the old DADA teacher, it talks about Quidditch.
"We asked John if he thinks he is playing better this year and if they have a chance to win the cup." The article reads, then it quotes you saying, "Last year was my first year in the team. I am much better now and our team practices a lot. We have a good chance of winning the cup."
Then it continues, to ask you about the "infamous" player of Gryffindor, Alba. Then you realize your answer is not exactly the same in the magazine. You remember answering that she is a good friend and she is a passionate player. But...it says that you, "blushed" and then continued to answer as "she is very passionate....and lively, and attractive." You feel something is wrong. It continues to say that "You think she is the best player in the Gryffindor and that you enjoy it a lot to spend your time with her alone." The article heavily implies that you like her and you are kind of together.
You look around after reading to see a lot of students are reading the same article just right now. Including Anya and others in Ravenclaw. Also Alba.

You put the newspaper down and look around to find Juliette. You walk around the tables. You hear some people talking, whispering or giggling when they see you. You try to think you are imagining it. Or to ignore it.
Finally you see her. Entering the great hall. You walk towards her with fast steps. She waves at you, looking completely normal.
"What the hell is this Juliette? I never said these things!" you say, getting angry.
She still looks normal. "What do you mean, John?" she asks softly. You show her the article and the parts about Alba.
She reads it slowly a few times. "Well..." she starts to answer. Her voice seems soft but a bit taken aback. "I can understand why you feel upset....but..."

"I am not upset, Juliette, I am pissed off. Why would you make up stuff about your friend?"
She looks down, "Look... I didn't write these stuff all right? When I delivered the interviews and stuff, our editor told me if she can add some stuff that will attract more readers and make it more interesting. I asked like what? And she said it's mostly about Quidditch. So I didn't think of anything else..."
She still looks down and seems sad. "But...I mean...I can understand you being upset...But it's just some exaggerations of your friendship..."

>>45055242
Lies were told, friends were manipulated, friendships were endangered.
>>45055272
This hurts our relationship with Alba if we don't sit down with her and talk like a normal human being. Yelling at the newspaper folks does not mean we get a retraction of the story. Heck, they could write an even less appealing story about us if they want.

She nods quickly. "Well...maybe you are right. The editor is Lea Cussian. She is a third grader Slytherin." She gives you her description. "I...I am sorry that this upset you John. I didn't mean for it to happen."
>Accept her apology, "just be careful next time"

Is there not a teacher who's in charge of the journalism club?
>>45055358
..Look. If the goal is to repair our personal relationships, we just have to talk tot he people in question. If the goal is to maintain our public image, we can ask them to print our response to the story. If the job is to avoid nasty rumors, well the cat's out of the bag on that one. All we can do is spread our side of the story as much as theirs, one way or the other.
As for reporting them? That has the possibility of making the situation worse. Not by not punishing the newspaper, but by hurting our image.

Still have no idea why we play it. I remember us being adamant in the beginning at not playing.

You accept her apology. "Just be more careful...You should know better Juliette." you say.
Then you head to the Slytherin table but you don't see Lea. Then you decide to head to their club room in the library. You don't stop to talk with anyother before sorting this mess out.
The library is quite empty at this time of the day. You ask the librarian to show you the room. It is one of the small office rooms in the back of the library. You knock and enter.
There are two girls sitting inside. One of them is reading the newspaper. You recognise her, it's Rachel Rosenfeld. The other one fits the description of Lea.
>Hi Lea, I am here to ask why did you write false things about me in the newspaper?
>Hi Rachel, what are you doing here?
>Are you the editor Lea Cussian? I am here to ask why did you write these lies about me?
>Are you the editor? You have some explainings to do to me!
>>45056077
I see it as just us being in the formative years of our life. You can be damn sure those dots aren't going to increase at age 30.
>>45056107
>>Are you the editor Lea Cussian? I am here to ask why did you write these lies about me?
>>45056107
Slap the newspaper down and point to the exact line we have our problem with.
>"Hi. Mind explaining this?"
>>45056107
>>Hi Rachel, what are you doing here?
Diplomacy and politeness always helps, even when we're angry.
>>45056107
>>Hi Lea, I am here to ask why did you write false things about me in the newspaper?
>>Hi Rachel, what are you doing here?

I mean the 'mishearing' one she taught us.
Where's our spell list at anyway?
>>45056107
>Hi Rachel, what are you doing here?
>Are you the editor Lea Cussian? I am here to ask why did you write these lies about me?
"Hi Rachel, hi lying sack of snake shit."
>>45056342
>>45056437
A small explanation for each spell might be needed for those unfamiliar with the potterverse.
>>45056107
>>Hi Rachel, what are you doing here?
Keep it civil. We don't even have confirmation this is the girl we're looking for.
>>45056136
>>45056144
>>45056362
You enter the room, directly looking at Lea, you put the newspaper on the table. "I am here to ask why did you write these lies about me?"
With that Rachel makes a strange "huh" sound. "So I am not the only one, you write lies about Lea?" She seems also upset, like you.
Lea seems ice cold calm. "I didn't write lies about you Rachel. You are simply not qualified enough to be in the Slytherin team."
Rachel snorts. "Yeah sure, really makes a lot of sense when I scored most of the goals..."
Lea interrupts her, "If Picar didn't catch the snitch, you realize we would have lost right? It wasn't enough."
Then you see Rachel is also holding a copy of the paper. There is her picture flying on the paper, it reads, "Who should be kicked out of the team?"
"Just because your stupid friend didn't made it into the team is not my fault!" Rachel replies getting angry, she adjusts her green hair band and you can see the green emerald eyes of the silver snake necklace she is wearing also almost glaring with annoyance.
It seems like you just entered the room in the middle of this.
Rachels turns to you then and asks what did she wrote about you. You explain shortly.
"Now also playing the matchmaker, Lea?" She asks sounding unbelievably annoyed.
"I wrote what it looks like from the outside, Apise."
Rachel cuts her "It doesn't like like that to me."
You are surprised it looks anything at all to Rachel whom you just met a month ago but you are grateful for the support.

For both of us. And try looking up journalistic integrity before you become the editor of a newspaper.
>>45056727
>>I don't know what are you talking about, you just put these stuff to make people read your stupid lies.
>>Demand an apology in the next issue
>>45056727
>"I don't care what do you think, I am telling you it is not true. You got your facts wrong."
Let's go slowly on her. Let her make the first mistake and make a scene.
Also, i fucking love Rachel.
>>45056727
>>I don't know what are you talking about, you just put these stuff to make people read your stupid lies.
>>Demand an apology in the next issue
>>45056727
>"I will tell my father to speak to the Headmaster to shut this down"
"Maybe you should keep your tabloid drivel for the gossip table instead of a publication."
>>45056727
>"I don't care what you think, I am telling you it is not true. You got your facts wrong."
>>45056727
>Slander is illegal Lea. It is bad and wrong. You are badong!
>>45056727
"That's perfectly fine. All I'm asking for is a small area of the Letters to the Editor section where I may voice my disapproval at your interpretation of these events. You can get your juicy story, and I'll have my dignity. Or you can be dismissive and we'll explore more formal routes."
>>45056727
>"I wrote what it looks like from the outside, Apise."
"But Juliette interviewed me in person, not you, so shouldn't it be HER perspective that matters?"
>>45056727
"I wrote what it looks like from the outside, Apise."
So she admits that her opinion effected her role as an editor.
She's suppose to remain unbias.
My quick glance into journalism ethics and standards has told me she violated a bunch of shit.
>>45056727
>>"I don't care what you think, I am telling you it is not true. You got your facts wrong."
>>45056817
Honestly I dont think the headmaster/connections route would work well on a slytherin you know how they are.
>>45057041
I think connections would work the best on a Slytherin. It's out of their playbook.
>>45057071
Depends on the Slytherin, and how high up on the food chain their daddy/mommy is. But usually all the slytherin families know each other and will protect their kids from outside problems.
>>45057129
I find the image of a Slytherin family using political points to suppress criticisms of their student's writing more than a little funny. In that case we could always make our own journalism club then.
>>45057241
They're all about their image like dracos father buying the slytherin team an entire set of nimbus 2001's. Even if the reason is retarded they will set out to show they are the best at being retarded.

"I don't care what are you talking about or what do YOU think it looks like. It is not true and you are not unbiased. You can't put your own thoughts as facts."
Rachel nods in agreement. "Especially when you are trying to get your friend in the team by writing slander about a current player. That is low, Lea...Even for you."
You can hear the librarian approaching from the outside.
"I demand an apology in the next issue." you say. Lea just shrugs and says "I will not apologize to any of you."
Just before you can open your mouth Rachel bursts, "Well then you will spend some time with Professor Snape, Lea. I don't think he will like to hear that you are trying to actively sabotage the Slytherin team."
Lea shows some emotions for the first time. You can see she is afraid...of Snape.
"Do you think Professor will care about this?" she asks but her fear betrays her as her voice sounds uncertain. "Do you want to try and see?" Rachel asks.
Lea looks unsure. She sighs. "I will write a few sentences on how it was a misinformation... satisfied?"
>Yes
>No
>Other
>>45057389
>Other
I may not know much of the Professor, but I don't believe he approves of slander. Keep that in mind next issue.
>>45057389
>>No
You will write an apology to everyone. A few sentences isn't good enough.
>>45057389
>No
But we'll take it anyway
>>45057389
>>No
>>45057389
>No
"You will write a retraction or I will destroy your little paper."
>>45057389
>Yes
Not feeling any need to press for more.
>>45057389
>No
"I'd rather you step down as editor, but instead I want the front page to be an apology not only to me, but Alba, Rachel and the entire school for your misinformation. Knowledge is power Lea. Falsehoods like what you've written only makes you appear weak."
>>45057389
>>Other
"Fine, but make sure it's on the front page for everyone to see, and not on the last page in small print."
>>45057389
>Other
Professor Snape faces slander of being a Death Eater I dont think he would appreciate any type of slander these days in papers.
>>45057389
>Other
"Rachel deserves an apology. If you back off on what you wrote in my story that'll be enough."
"And if you don't follow through, of course, Professor Mcgonagall would be very interested to know how you dragged a Gryffindor into this. Snape may not listen to me or Rachel, but I'd be willing to bet he listens to her. Follow me?"
>>45057549
Our own aunt also faces the same slanderous claims. So that is another plausible reason for us to have our buttons pushed by this.I bet she actually was a Death Eater tho. She probably liked it too and wants to make us one.
>>45057586I think so too considering the option with Apise in the first thread, was that the family was split in the wizarding war.
>>45057586implying I'm not 100% on board with it.
>>45057586
fuck that
>>45057547
Maybe not the headline, but the front page for sure.

Just as Rachel nods and looks like annoyed with the whole thing you speak up and say "No. You will not just write a few sentences, you will write a full apology, I would rather you step down as the editor but, instead you will write an apology on the front page to me, to Rachel and to all else for your misinformation."
Lea doesn't like so much agreeing with that idea but before she can answer the librarian enters. "What is going on in here?"
It seems the arguement was a little bit too high volumed for the library. After some explaination she make you and Rachel leave the place. You hope that Lea will write that apology in the next issue.
"Don't worry. She is very afraid of our Profesor." Rachel tells you on the way.
"I can understand the reason she wrote these stuff about me, to get her friend on the team but why would she write that you are going out with Morteno? You are just friends no?"
>Yes of course we are only friends. She probably wanted to make some random gossip.
>Yeah we are only friends. Maybe she tried to create some drama to make our Quidditch teams lose focus.
>Yes we are only friends. I don't know or care why would she write those things.

"Yeah we are only friends. Maybe she tried to create some drama to make our Quidditch teams lose focus."
Rachel nods, "Well...people like her...it's the reason people think Slytherins are all mean and stupid like her..."
You walk a bit more with Rachel on the way back to the Great Hall. "I am actually looking forward to the Duelling Club of this week." she says eagerly. "You really disarm me very effectively last time. I would like to take my revenge" She jokes and laughs.
>Laugh. "I would like to see you try. I am looking forward to it too. I think it is fun and useful.
>Smile. "I look forward to it too... and don't worry much about people like her. My mother was a Slytherin too. I don't think all of you are bad."

You smile back. "I look forward to it too... And don't worry much about people like Lea. My mother was a Slytherin too. So I don't think all of you are bad or anything."
That lightens her up. "Really? I didn't know that." You tell her how she was one of the best Quidditch players in Slytherin and supposedly has a picture somewhere in the Slytherin dungeons while flying for the team. She tells you that she will look it up. In the mean time you arrive to the Great Hall. It is less crowded now but you see Alba is here talking with some of her friends. One of them looks at you with a funny look.
There is also still Glenn and Anya on the Ravenclaw table.
When they see you they both wave at you and you walk towards them. You explain them everything. Glenn seems really annoyed. "I don't understand why would someone write something like this." Anya looks like she is relieved. You know she doesn't really love Alba a lot. "I am glad this is cleared John. What a nonsense..."
>"Yeah...she is only a friend to me, always. I don't think of her like that."
>"Alba is not the girl I would consider in that way..."

You leave the table to go over to Alba's table. When you come closer you can see some people around, especially Gryffindors around your age give you funny looks. You catch the eye of Alba and nod with your head to say hello and sit down next to her.
"Alba, look," She seems pretty normal. She has some freckles around her cheeks and nose, dark hair and blue eyes. "I didn't know you liked me like that John." she says quite seriously, her Spanish lisp still present in her accent.
Did somebody just shout as "Romeo"
Anyway.

"It's just a misunderstanding really. I only said that you are a good friend and a good Quidditch player. I don't think of you in that way. This editor was just trying to create some gossips. Don't worry she will write an apology in the next issue."
She doesn't show much emotions. Except to ask who is this editor. You tell her.
"I am not surprised. These Slytherins always try to act against us... but anyway..." You now realize that maybe she was also uncomfortable about this situation. To think everyone making jokes to her and stuff when you were in the library.
"This is really strange..." she says. "I don't understand these people...Anyway... I gotta go." She leaves a bit abruptly.
During the next few days both Alba and Anya seems a bit more different to you. Or maybe you are imagining. When you ask about it to Glenn he just shurgs and says that it looks like it was to him. Maybe you are overthinking about this. The jokes and funny faces also gets lesser with each day.

You spent your free time mostly playing with Cordelia. She drinks some of her sweet honey nectar and then buzzez around you while you finish the book for the Book Club. You scratch her back and belly softly, she has soft yellow fur. Her eyes always looks so intelligent and aware of what is going on around her.
After you finish reading you put Cordelia back to her small bed and continue to the Herbology class.
It's a common class with Hufflepuff. They still are sore from the Quidditch defeat. The class passes mostly quiet. You are requiered to properly harvest a couple of strange looking purple and green glowing mushrooms.

Shes a cute tomboy what more can you want.there is also the fact that brainy boy and tough girl is usually a nice pair, shes "foreign", Canonicaly very attractive, and interhouse relationships are cute.I would like to spend more time with her before we start romancing her though.Compared to Anya she dosent have that may cute "couple moments" just really good platonic chemistry.
>>45060047
You confidently peel the outer skin and stuff on the mushroom. Carefully cut and dice the correct spots. Professor Sprout likes your work and also surprisingly Valdis' work. "5 Points each for Ravenclaw" she announces. These days Valdis tries to do good in classes. You might even admit that his stupid Eagle cry draw your attention and by luck you saw the Snitch.
"These mushrooms are quite dangerous in the wrong hands." Professor explains. "They can be used in a very dangerous poison." Mary let's out a quiet cry and drops the mushrooms on the table. "Oh...don't worry Miss Arthur. They are not toxic like this. It requieres a very complex potion making to make them posionous..."
You also realize Mary is kind of distanced too. Not that she was very outgoing around you anyway...maybe it's your imagination again. You focus on the task at hand and prepare the mushrooms.
"Maybe we should give some of these to that editor" Anya whispers to you.

Both Anya and nearby Glenn laughs. "Yeah that could work too!" she says happily.
After the class three of you head back to the Ravenclaw common room. Anya seems excited that she received a letter. It reminds you of your own unread letters.
Anya reads quickly and then gasps in excitement. "Wow!" she exclaims. "Glenn! I think what you told me about my future has come true!"
You are also intrigued, start listening.
"You told me that someone in my close family will be travelling soon. And my mom wrotes that my dad had to travel to Korea a few weeks ago. Last month I think actually. It takes some time for these letters to arrive, it is a bit weird for my parents to send a letter with an owl..."
You remember that they are Muggles.
"... anyway, it says that he went to Korea. So this is it I think! You predicted my future correctly! Well... it was kind of already happened at the time but... I don't know. What do you think?"
Glenn just shrugs as usual. "Where is Korea? Your dad has some business there?"
"It's in Asia. There was a plance crush...uhh...a plane is a muggle vehicle...think of it like a really big broomstick that carries lot of people and it flies around."
Glenn laughs and says he knows what is a plane.
"Oh..sorry...yeah anyway, there was a problem with a plane crushing I think, he went there to...to investigate and get some information and stuff."

The first letter is from the French girl. It's written in French.
"Cher John,
..."
She talks about how her school is. How she is in this Arithmency club and it's her favorite class. She does seem confused that you wrote something about a friend of yours read your future and saw that maybe she will be in danger. She assures you that she is not in danger. And asks you how is Hogwarts and if you want to visit France again sometime?
The second letter is from your Mom. It seems that she has read the Hogwarts Journal too. She writes to you that she respects your decisions and your friends but you should be more careful to give interviews like that, that will published publicly.

You write a full page of answer asking about her school, favorite subject and other stuff. And then you invite her to Britain.
While you are writing, Anya also writes back to her mom and Glenn just reads the textbook of the Potions class. The Ravenclaw common room is semi crowded. Captain Anthony is just sitting near the fireplace with a girl. They seem pretty close. While Tim, Alice and Juliette are writing some homeworks together at a table. There are also some first graders running around trying to catch a pet hamster.
You prepare both of your letters and you are ready to send them.
A few day passes without much incident. In december the weather gets much colder and these days it seems snowy everyday. You are used to the white carpet coverin all of the nature around you. Some parts of the lake even seems to be frozen a bit. It is a particularly cold winter.
The duelling club is upon us. Once again the Professor Hevelius is teaching the class. Professor Flitwick is also present today. Both of them put up a show to teach you students a certain spell. "Professor Flitwick was a great duelling champion during his youth...It is an honour for me." Professor Hevelius announces. Flitwick bows down and answers kindly, "The honour is mine Professor. The memories of your duels against many Dark wizards are still fresh in my mind."
Both of them are complete gentlemen and they bow down and take three steps away from each other and then cast their spells. Flitwick is slower by a nanosecond and he couldn't pronounce the last letter of the spell. Professor Hevelius successfully demonstrates how to cast the Tongue Tying Curse.

Now the students are expected to cast it. The Hufflepuff students still seem to be not so happy with Ravenclaws after the Quidditch match. Hevelius reads names one by one and a pair come to the stage to duel. Bryan of Ravenclaw duels against Rachel and Rachel wins. Alba also defeats a guy from Slytherin, she seems quite fast.
"Mr. Apise" your name has been read. "Against Mr. Weasley"
Red head Bill Weasley comes up to the stage. Both of you bow down to each other. 3...2...1
