Fanfic Friday for my Quidditch Wifey 💙💛
Where do you see The Quidditch Kids now that their canon ages would have them at or around age 50?
What a great question, wifey! 💛💙 I totally fell asleep before answering it though.
Somehow my pretty lengthy first answer got deleted and I’m upset about it. I’m upset.
We’re moving into deep AoB3 territory here and beyond and I haven’t everything figured out as such so nothing is set in stone. Except for Murphy, cause, you know.
Murphy: You know Coffee & Commentary is my unrivalled headcanon when it comes to Murphy. So if the insanely talented creator of this story doesn’t object (do you?) I guess he and his gorgeous wife are still living on their estate and managing their Quidditch camp. They expanded it over the years to various different locations to make the sport even more accessible and are a highly regarded part of the Wizarding sports community.
Skye: She accepted the challenge of her family’s legacy after her brothers chose to go their own ways. It wasn’t easy to step out of her father’s shadow while still maintaining her loyalty to the Wanderers, but she managed to lead them to unmatched glory. Even after her career she stuck around, making sure the newbies didn’t undo all of her hard work. There must always be a Lichking Parkin in Wigtown.
Erika: After playing as a Beater for the Montrose Magpies for a good part of her career, Erika switched into their scouting/training department after retirement. She knows how to spot a promising Beater like no one else and everyone that’s been trained by her agrees that she was one of the most important factors of their journey.
Orion: After stepping back from his position as a Chaser for the Magpies, Orion decided to pursue another secret passion of his and learned how to heal. But not the easy part of fixing broken bones with a spell, he focused on the more intricate synergy of body and mind. He knows how a physical injury can unbalance the mind from firsthand experience himself and in his immediate environment, and how a mental block can prevent the body from healing. He specialised in helping professional Quidditch players make their comeback after long term injuries. Almost every player of the Magpies has been coached by him at some point, because he just happens to be married to their coach. What a lucky coincidence.
