She felt like such a newb. How could she be so stupid as to not keep her head in her task. 'I'm such a failure and I'm letting the team down.' She was in the middle of practicing for a game against Gryffindor coming next week. She hadn't had her head in the game at all instead it was filled with worry of her brother's safety and if he hated her. Also, the added stress of lying to her MOTHER of all people. Someone she never lies to.
She had gone into a dive to grab the snitch and had misjudged the spacing she had before the ground. So, when she went to level out, she dug the tip of her broom into the ground instead. Which caused her to launch off her broom luckily, she was able to tuck and protect her head. But as she landed and rolled, she broke her arm, wrist, and 2 ribs. Her broom was fine, and the nurse was able to heal her bones.
Now she was still in the hospital wing simply for 2 reasons. 1, overnight to make sure there was nothing missed. 2 to have someone evaluate her mental state. Because the team had noticed she was acting strange and reported it after this accident. Now that she was alone, she let herself let out a few tears. She felt weak at the moment. But not because of the stress of everything. But because she had let herself get this bad and not ask for help.

"At least the fall was not far, but next time yes, I will make sure that the Professor is there to get it themselves and I wont try climbing the castle to get the toy down from there." Iris sighed as she felt like an idiot, she climbed all the time, up and down walls, in and out of windows, she thought that she would be fine going up the side of the castle to get the stuck puff that was sitting on the ledge. She had broken her arm and her leg as well, so she was having to stay over night so that the skellagrow could work and she was making sure that she had all her brains in her head as well. Iris was in and out of the hospital wing a lot so she knew each of them thought that he had issues in her head.
She was in the bed next to Magnolia as she looked over "What are you in for?" She asked as she looked at her and chuckled some. Iris was a good hearted person and she just felt that sometimes the things that she could do she should not be doing like climbing the side of the castle, or thinking she could fly with out a broom.

She looks at the bubbly girl and couldn't help but smile a little. "Look at us a couple of fall victims." She said laughing at the situation. "I'm the seeker for the Ravenclaw team. I was practicing for the game tomorrow against Gryffindor team. I miss judged the level of my descent. So, when I went to level out my broom it dug into the ground, and I went flying off my broom. I managed to tuck and roll to protect my head but broke my arm wrist and 2 ribs. All in all, a lucky save if you ask me." She says sheepishly and a dark chuckle. "I'm honestly not surprised they reported I might have problems with my mental state right now. probably want a new seeker too. Such a rookie mistake." She looks out the window and plays with a strand of her hair. She honestly would be surprised if her family visited other than her mother. But that's if her mother knew. "So now I'm waiting on a guy to evaluate me."

"But see now that is something way cooler then just falling off the side of the castle. We were playing pass the puffy and one of the kids tossed it up to high and it got stuck on the side of the castle, so i went and climbed up, and honestly this is not the first time that I have scaled up the side of the castle before." She laughed then winced a little bit as the pain in her arm hit hard for a moment a she looked down. "And I just kind of fell off, broke my arm, and wrist, my leg and foot as well, they are going to write my parents to tell them to ask me to stop climbing the castle." She laughed as she laid back in the bed some more as she was trying to rest. 'I do not think they will replace you on the team, I mean your brother his first year playing tried to eat the snitch." she laughed a moment hearing about that.

She smiles. "Thanks I needed to hear that. I'm Magnolia Evans. But friends and family call me Mag's. I'd offer a hand but well orders not to move you know?" She says with a laugh not having to make an excuse but still finding it all funny

"Nice to meet you Iris Storstrand, everyone calls me Iris because its really had to make a nick name out of that you know." She laughed as she shifted back in the bed some as she yawned a little bit, she wanted to get back out and go running in the field as she thought that would be a lot more fun then sitting there. "Haha, yeah same, cant shake my foot either, but you know at least this keeps us out of classes for a bit." She was happy about that, as she really did not want to be dealing with Potions class at the moment. "So what year are you?" She asked as she turned and winced in pain as that was not the best thing for her to be doing.

She laughs then groans in pain "oooh laughing hurts stupid ribs." She then looks over after hearing the question. "I'm a 6th year in Ravenclaw of course. You're a Gryffindor? then you know my older brother Harry huh? How is he doing in class and back in the common room?" No matter what her first worry is always her siblings. Harry is also the danger prone one of the family at least 3 injuries a year. He gives her anxiety he does.

"Ah yeah thats right were in the same year just not in the same house you and I. As far as i know about your brother he is fine I guess. Well you take potions right were n the same class with that one." She laughed a moment as she shifted back a little bit. "I would not worry to much about him, i bet his mind is all over the fact that he is getting out of school at the end of this year, that would make anyone happy, now save for the N.E.W.T's testing he has to do at the end of the year, that would make anyone worry more then they should." She grinned off, that was something she dreaded and she still had a year before all of that.

She smiles hearing her brother is ok but then groans at the notion of N.E.W.T.'s testing next year. "Can't say I'm enthused for the testing myself. I'd much rather take a stumble off my broom again then take the testing." She says laughing as she takes her classes seriously, but she still dreads her testing for next year. "It's good to hear that Harry is doing well. But your right his testing is fast approaching. He's probably going out of his mind with stress." She says with a fond smile on her face. She loves both her brothers, but tests were not her brother's favorite. Nor his strong suit either he was more a practical than a written.

"The only good thing about the testing through next year, just means then were done with Hogwarts and we dont have to come back another year. That is unless you fail the test so bad they make you do another year. Oh think how crappy that would be having to come back another year just because you flunked o badly." She shuddered at the thought of having to do another year, though she did love this school, she loved it a lot and never really wanted to go, she knew that she would have to so that she could do something more for the world then just be cooped up here. "SO what are your thoughts about what you want to be when you get out of here?" She asked, it as also nice to see how much she cared about her brother, a little to much and she thought it was a little creepy, but she would not say anything not at this moment.

She shivers at the thought of staying an 8th year. "That I think qualifies as a waking nightmare especially for a Ravenclaw." She then smiles as the conversation got to a fun subject. "I'm studying to become an Auror. I know the job is dangerous and mom isn't exactly on bored. But I want to help people." She admits as her mother while supporting her choice is also concerned for her.

"Hey even for the house im in that would be a waking nightmare ug, having to deal with Snape or Professor Larson for more often then what we should have to deal with them." She was not fond of the others, but she knew that she was not the only one that felt that way about the men, not knowing she was connected to both in one form or another. "Oh that is kick ass, that would be something fun, I want to work in a shop, nothing huge, just something that I can do what i want with this. Or I want to work with kids, you know one of them early school things for magical kids." She said a she grinned off a bit.

"That's awesome hopefully one day you can open a school for magical kids. If I'm being honest, I think we need one now with how life is becoming harder for these kids growing up. Not in the sense that they are being abused or anything. But the kids could use at least an introductory into the world they may choose to go into." She says with an excited smile. As she has always wanted to see one made. Maybe there is a time for it coming soon. Who knows but she will root for Iris nonetheless.

"Well I was thinking more like primare school you know what uh, what Americans call like elementry school. Most magic families home school their kids before they get into Hogwarts. While others send them to muggle schools. This would be a place that all could come, not only would they get the basics like learning to read, write, do basic math and such. They would learn about magic mostly what magic is, what they can do, and how to control their emotons when around muggles." She said as she shifted a little bit. "So when they all get to Hogwarts they at least feel a bit better, and no you cant choose to be or not to be in this world once you are you are, you may chose to live more muggle or more magic but you cant not be part of the world." She told her honestly.

"No. No you can't once you have magic there is no suppressing or being "normal". Not that I would try too now. If I'm being honest there was a part of me that wanted to not have magic at all while I was growing up." She really was being honest as she hated magic when she was young. As her outburst always got her in trouble appearing in one place from another and other such things that almost exposed her in muggle school. "Almost being caught for what you are in muggle schools is terrifying. Being a Half-blood I had a family that helped me know what I am and how to control. I can only imagine what it's like for a muggleborn witch or wizard. No knowing what you are what's happening to you how to control ii. It must be terrifying."
