DEEPLURK

the game

Spring break is officially over and students return to a mess of rain and snow as the temperature fluctuates throughout the day. It’s sure to make for one mess of a quidditch match, which is maybe why so many students and locals have gathered in the stands despite the weather.

00:00:00 - 00:10:00

• Wildgulch Beater Strauss dominates the field right out the gate, clearing a path. His bludger buzzes Chaser Clutterbuck in particular, who narrowly avoids injury. Deeplurk’s Beater Rainwater sees a much rougher start and can’t get a handle on the bludger at all.
