Two letters (Helena Layne and Oliver Abbott) by Boomer

Boomer, the Great Gray Owl whose mistress was the Head of Crotalus House did not have far to venture for his next two deliveries. Coach Pierce could have hand delivered them herself, but she didn't want to give the impression that she favored her own House over the other three, so the letters were near identical copies to what the other captains and assistant captains would be receiving.

The two letters were tied loosely around its thickly feathered legs were enclosed in parchment envelopes that bore the Boston Pierce family crest in the top left corner and Amelia Pierce's name and matriarch title emblazoned below it.

Inside the one addressed to Helena Layne, the letter read:

Captain Helena Layne,

The first Quidditch games will be held in a few weeks. Please recruit as necessary to get enough people for your try-outs. You may seek the assistance of Oliver Abbott in this effort, as he has been appointed as your assistant captain. I have scheduled Crotalus for having the Pitch on Sunday morning for try-outs. If this does not work for you, let me know, and I will re-arrange the schedule.

Coach Pierce



The one for Oliver Abbott read:

Oliver Abbott,

Congratulations! You have been appointed the Assistant Quidditch Captain of the Crotalus team. Please speak with me, or your team captain, Helena Layne, if you feel you cannot meet this obligation. Otherwise, good luck and have fun, Assistant Captain.

Coach Pierce
