SOUP - June 2022

Dear readers,

Here I am again, after an absence of a month or so. I am here to discuss our lovely Slytherin Legends, once again. Because so much has happened in the time I have been traveling the world and writing about the Legends I found. You see, searching for Slytherin Legends is what I love to do, most of all. I follow the giant footsteps of Professor Slughorn himself. Where he collected students from every house, I, however, only collect Slytherins. I wish to know more about them. I am even a tad competitive while doing this.
I might almost see it as a sport!

Now, this month I found Katie_slytherin has become Heir of Slytherin, and what is it this Legend has with sports? I was eager to find out and as such I quickly sent an owl from my holiday home somewhere in a shack in Norway.

MR: How does it feel to be a Slytherin legend?
K: I am absolutely honoured to be named Heir of Slytherin this month and I was so touched by the amazing blurb in my HoS post, I absolutely love it, it will forever be something special to me as HEX means the absolute world to me. I wouldn't call myself a Slytherin legend though, I'm just me, Katie_slytherin!

MR: Did you ever meet another Slytherin legend, in sports or otherwise, and how did this go?
K: Definitely not in sports haha, but I have made some really amazing friends in Slytherin. I think we are all legends in our own way, I know some truly amazing legends, but there are also going to be legends like Dolores Umbridge. Each legend I have met has taught me something important and If I could, I would befriend every single person in Slytherin and together we would dominate HEX with Slytherin Pride, positivity, and hugs. I've already been able to do this with some amazing Slytherin legends so I'd say meeting legends is going pretty well!

MR: Which Slytherin legend would you enjoy to play a game with and which existing game would this be?
K: Oooooooo hmmmm, I feel like playing drip, drip, drop would be a lot of fun! We could gather a bunch of people up and play a bunch of different games!

MR: What do you think could be a fun and interesting game to play in the Wizarding World? (this can be anything imaginative)
K: Hide and seek! People could transfigure into items or hide on the ceiling! Maybe there is one big room everyone hides in.

MR: One Slytherin legend is Severus Snape. How do you think he is like when he watches his favourite game, if he has any?
K: SNAPE!!!! MY LOVE!!!! I think he probably enjoys watching his favourite games (probably not so much when his team doesn't win- but that's everyone). As much as he finds pleasure in watching games, I think he has other interests that he would put first.

MR: Do you enjoy watching or playing games?
K: Probably play, but it depends on the game. Board games? Yes! Fishy fishy? Yes! Water games? Yes! Tackle football with professional players? Errrr, not so much.

MR: Which magical creature would you play a ball game with?
K: A ball game? I suppose it depends what we are playing! Maybe a dementor! Imagine someone asking you what you did during the weekend and your response is that you were casually hanging out with a dementor and yall had lots of fun! I want a dementor friend!!!! Imagine the chaos.

How wonderful would it be, indeed, to have a dementor for a friend to play a ball game with! Once again I was intrigued by the answers our legend gave us.
Thank you, Katie, for your answers.
I shall be back to you all next week, with a new Slytherin Legend!

Best wishes,
Milena Racheli
