Selwyn Quidditch Box
#1
Guess who hates Quidditch but loves spending money for the sake of appearances? This bitch. That's right - Ambrosia is using her husband's money to force the family to be in a confined space for an uncomfortable period of time and if you think this isn't going to involve arguments then you'd be wrong!

Invited to the box are:
  • Emrys Selwyn (+1 if he's so inclined)
  • Daniel Selwyn & Freya Selwyn
  • Deanna Benwick
  • Cadawalader, Hortense & Other Selwyn
  • Anthea & Tanwen Selwyn
  • Adrienne & Aristide Selwyn
  • Liliana Selwyn*

*With the strict caveat that she doesn't speak to or look at Ambrosia.

Feel free to arrange threads or opt out below! I'm guessing that any more than fifteen would be a crowd in the UC box so if anyone has a compelling reason why they need an extra ticket let me know and Ambrosia will judge Wink

Talk to Ambrosia? Liliana would give a resounding 'ew' on that thought. But be warned that she will demand attention from Papa!Selwyn. Selwyn brood can feel free to compete with her for daddy's attention.

Emrys would really like to bring a +1 "friend." Male, UC/MC, bi(curious) or might have given Emrys reason to think so, Rep 4+ with nothing outrageous (ie wouldn't give his family cause to think twice).

If someone has a character who could work, hit me up on Skype! If not, I'll bring an NPC whom Emrys misjudged who will spend the afternoon flirting with one of the ladies and making Emrys grumpy D<



Lou made this! <3

Yes! Daniel (and presumably Freya Selwyn) shall be there. Please send me awkward thread ideas.

The only way I can think of Anthea wanting to go is if she's made it interesting for herself.

SO GAMBLING! What's a wee bet amongst friends. Depending on who she's gambling with we may determine money, a peculiar item she's acquired or something else.

Who wants to bet with Anthea for

1) Winner
2) How many goals
3) Who catches the snitch
4) Injuries
Etc

And I'm fairly sure that like Athena Anthea is a poor loser RE: Trojan War because Paris chose Aphrodite; Arachne was turned into a spider because she won against Athena in a weaving competition so honestly I don't care if she wins or losers.

Also do we know the outcome of the game ahead of time?

Anthea is with complete face blindness and unimpressed. If you've met her before don't expect her to be friendly....ier than normal.
#7
Daniel muse is apparnetly telling me he'd like a bet with his sister. And he wants to bet for some item of import to Anthea. Probably about injuries....

#8
Emrys wants to bet for interesting items! He'll wager some exotic item from abroad. I'm feeling sub-Saharan African in origin?

Also his +1 friend is Peter Salvage

Unless someone really wants a thread with her, just know Deanna will be there watching Daniel LIKE A HAWK and collecting as much Selwyn gossip as she can possibly hold in her brain.

I need to find something creepy but valueable for Daniel to wager..... wait gold comes from under ground. Hmmmm probably a statue of some sort. OH! Maybe a golden statue of a greek god that was their father's and everyone is annoyed Daniel ended up with it - except Daniel doesn't like it. He jsut wants it to lore over his siblings with.

..... too much? I could also go with golden peacock statue.

Daniel Selwyn  - Daniel you ass - Anthea promises if you are too much of a shit she's going to come and stay with you and Freya for a while totally not motivated about getting out of the child-ridden house. Whatever did she do to you?  I'd also be going with a favourite chess-set or something keepsakey. You'd have to find something of equal value to exchange cause she's not likely to be tricked unlike a certain someone.

Ophelia Devine  - I feel like if you want to have a Poseidon/Athena rivalry similiar to myths this should be a good start. They should both put something onto the table that they each wanted and the other got at auction or something. Collectors Rivalry Wink

Though if it's a group pot - I think Daniel should wager something like The Hand of Glory it has the ick death factor and you know his invisible helmet and all that.  I have no idea about Anthea I feel like she's wager an open ended within reason favour she thinks so highly of herself or something random like a truth serum or foeglass or a Sneakoscope She thinks a Weasley clock that'll tell Daniel when Deanna is nearby is totally a good idea

Cad would love some low key uncle betting, out of his mothers eye line of course, and any opportunity to exclude Liliana will be taken

Cad will probably invite a school friend of some description and if he thought it would sway Ambrosia Selwyn - he'd make a case for the other new Hogwarts Quidditch captains to be invited, if it meant that his mum would kick Liliana out of the box to make room for them.

Freya does not agree with this as I have plans that require an empty house <.<

I love the hand of glory idea but I dont think anyone would want to win that in the bet.

And Daniel is open to a nephew son with Cad.

Liliana cannot be ousted. Cad can have one guest and Ambrosia would prefer it to be Archelaus.
