I heard some of the fifth years in the hallway saying something awful happened at the game between Puddlemere United and and the Chudley Cannons today. One of the Puddlemere Chasers fell off his broom? Or maybe it was one of their Beaters? Only it was worse than just a fall I guess.

Do you know if it's true People are saying There's a rumor he's sick, really sick. The player who fell I mean. Did anyone here anything?

The Cannons STILL LOST if you can believe it.

Where'd you hear that?

[alt_seamus]

I heard a couple of Hufflepuffs talking and one of them was holding the evening Prophet.

[alt_ron]

Yeah, I was just talking to Towler and Jordan. They said Morris, too, actually. Said he was paralysed. I dunno if it was because he fell or if he fell because he was paralysed, though, but then Johnson said all the Muggles and Muggleborns who've got sick were all paralysed, too, and that she'd heard that's what Morris has got.

[alt_seamus]

Its not supposed to affect half-bloods.

You don't suppose Morris is actually a mudblood and his mum lied about who his father was really?

[alt_ron]

Uh. I dunno. I read a big article about him in Quidditch Insider last spring, and it said his father was Bullnose Morris, y'know, the big star for the Magpies back in the 70s?

I mean, I guess that could've been wrong, but they kind of look a lot alike. There were pictures of them together and all.

bugger

I think your right.

I hope he was just hurt in the fall anyway. The Ministry said

[alt_padma]

Wait. You mean he got sick the way the others

You mean he's got the same thing they think is happening in the camps?

But he's a halfblood!

[alt_ron]

Yeah. Way to keep up with the conversation, Patil.

[alt_padma]

Oh, hah. I was talking with Finnigan about important things, like how bad the Cannons are.

[alt_seamus]

Well maybe he DID just get hurt in the fall.

People sometimes get paralysed from falling.

I think.

[alt_padma]

Yeah, if he hurt his spine, right? But can't they fix that?

I guess it depends on whether he's okay tomorrow.
