Though there was no reason for him to lie to himself. Carter was a decent player. But not as good as he was, of course. Maybe after he retired Carter would have his moment in the spotlight. Until then he would be signing things for these wonderful fans of his.

He watched as the old man and the boy got whatever it was they wanted him to sign. Sherman had slipped off his tie and was nudging it over to him eagerly. This didn’t faze Colin at all. He had signed weirder things than the nifty zoo tie before. Then West looked through his bag and handed over a piece of parchment that had quite a bit of writing on it. Was that his teams schedule on it? If it hadn’t been for the logo on it, this coach would have been a bit concerned about why and how he had gotten this information.

Shortly after the men handed over their things, Colin set them down on the table, took out his wand, and flicked it twice. The parchment the boy had given him doubled and a quill with magical ink perfect for signing just about anything appeared. Satisfied with his wand work, Colin started doing what he did best (besides all things Quidditch, of course). When he was done, he handed the tie and pieces of parchment back. “Here you go, boys!”

At the moment, though, she was wandering the street area aimlessly, still looking. Maybe he was at the food area. And if he wasn't.. well. Food was there, too. Win-win situation, yeah?

Was that her grandfather's booth over there?

Text Cut: COLIN MACKENZIE and that one kid




That kid.. interned? At the Daily Prophet? With his granddaughter? Funny, because Alice had incidentally forgotten to mention that, and Sherman did not need her spending MORE time with this boy than needed. And that topic would be revisited later, but he had to ignore it for now because.. because...

BECAUSE COLIN MACKENZIE WAS SIGNING HIS TIE. (!!!!!!!!)

Sherman didn't squeal, but if it was professional to make high-pitched, girlish noises, he would have been right then. "Thank you, sir! It was a pleasure meeting you." No, really. It was. He would treasure this experience for the rest of his elderly life, honest.

Beaaaam.

And.. and this day was only getting better, because..




"You're Eliana Stone. S-seeker for Pride of P-portree." ALL THE PROFESSIONAL PLAYERS AT HIS BOOTH. "Will you... will you sign my.. my... too.... I...?" Sherman nudged his already-signed-by-Colin-MacKenzie zoo tie at the redhead and smiled shyly. Would SHE sign it?

And then would CARTER, as well?

BEST. DAY. EVER. The birth of his granddaughter had been bumped to second.


This was the BEST. Not only had Colin Mackenzie been an amazing player in his time, but he was an epic coach and nobody could deny that he knew what he was doing, and he'd been with the Magpies in some form or another for West's whole LIFE. West was more than glad to have the opportunity to get his signature. THAT was a autograph to keep. WAIT TIL HE TOLD THEO AND BLUE.

"Thank you, sir!" West was all grins as he took both bits of parchment back. He looked at his own autograph first and got a bit starry eyed. Amaaaazing. And one for Alice. Yessss. "Thanks. Maybe we'll get to talk to you in an official capacity later in the summer." Yeah! With the Daily Prophet and all. EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW? YES?

... but now... err... Alice's grandfather wasn't... y'know... talking to him or anything. West wasn't sure if he was supposed to.... say something? Was he supposed to...

DIDN'T NEED TO. HE WAS SAVED. West lit up, spotting Alice. "Excuse me, sir." He excused himself, before hurrying over to her.

"Alice! Guess who is over there? I mean aside from your grandfather. Colin Mackenzie. The Colin Mackenzie. And he signed this for you!" West held out the parchment for her. "And one for me!"

He didn't even have time to get all awkward about the grandfather part because he was still excited about 'The Hot Scot' Mackenzie, and now entirely happy and excited to see Alice.

Alice Fischer even managed to outshine Colin Mackenzie in West's eyes. She was prettier for one. For another, he was ready for kisses. Hiiiii Girlfriend.
