Alicia Spinnet's moving on and up from Quidditch, though she hasn't completely separated from her adoration of it given that she has taken up as an apprentice broom-maker. She's still a bit sour over her injury, now that she can't play Quidditch anymore, but she is improving gradually. Alicia can be relatively straight-forward and brash about just about everything and she isn't afraid of sharing her opinion, though she has been a bit reserved since her injury she's back on the up-swing now, more or less. She's quite defiant and clever as well, unafraid of challenging anyone who challenges her right back. Alicia's a Pureblood, and while her parents were in no way blood supremacists, she was raised to be proper and to live up to her family legacy. She can walk the walk and pretend to be a refined Pureblood Princess but that doesn't mean she doesn't have the words to bite your head off if you decide to be a bit nasty.
* Friends
Alicia's pretty easy to get along with right out of the gate, and more than willing to strike up a conversation with just about anyone. It might take a bit longer to reach the status of besties and all, though.
* Enemies
Anyone who goes after her friends are family are not going to end up on her good side. Not to mention she's more than willing to go after you if you go after the people she cares about, and she's not afraid to play dirty if she has to.
* Romance
Alicia would have had quite a few relationships in the past, mostly either during her time at Hogwarts or during her Professional Quidditch career. Following her injury Alicia's been going out a lot less, though, so there hasn't been much going on. Now that she's back on the upswing though, she's more open to anyone who can keep up with her.
Here's muggleborn Amelia. These two were roommates went from as close as two can be (one of Amelia's few female friends) to never seeing one another post Battle of Hogwarts. I don't know how things will be when they meet up again but they are certainly as cute as a button and thick as thieves in the past. I feel like Alicia is one of the few people's opinion Amelia trusts outside of her Coach and can probably get her to not think about the sport for five seconds - which is a long time for her!
I expect when we get Lucas, Amelia, and Alicia into a room the vibes will be weird... and probably easily readable for darling Spinnet.

I think things will definitely get interesting once they meet up again, given how close they were. A part of Alicia does miss Amelia but it's been so long and so much has changed for her. It might be a bit unexpected, sure, but not unwelcome. Once the awkwardness and the years of distance gets settled between them, I'm sure they could start to reclaim that friendship bit by bit.
As for Amelia and Lucas's budding relationship, that's not something she's going to miss (and she'll probably have a few giggles over it)
Here's Neville from school, but all grown up now! I feel like, now that he's a bit less awkward, he's gotten into reconnecting with old housemates. Friends?

Nevy-poo! Alicia would definitely be up for reconnecting, even if they might not have been so close during school (because of the age difference). Friends sounds good!
So Charlie was captain when Alicia first made the reserve Gryffindor team and therefore Alicia is family whether she likes it or not Charlie's that consummate over-protective big brother, but he also would have been really affectionate and sweet with Alicia and the other girls, without ever underestimating them - he has Ginny for a sister, after all. He would've tried to keep in touch after he left school and would have probably gone to a couple of her games when she was playing, too. When she had her injury he likely would have tried to support her however she wanted him to - although I could see him showing up with takeout and a bottle of wine one night for a good old mope together. So yeah, friends?

Yes, that sounds awesome! Little Alicia probably would have thought he was a super awesome captain, and totally might have looked up to him. I can see her constantly sending him letters for tips and tricks once he'd graduate. She'd probably appreciate the whole overprotective big brother routine even if she'd whine all the way, especially after her injury (at which point she'd be a bit more of an irritable whine-y pain). But yes, friends sounds good!

Stella&Alicia
I'm thinking maybe friends? Stella's only a year older so they probably would have known eachother in school, but maybe they weren't friends in school but now they've grown close?

Yeah, they could have been passing acquaintances in school since Alicia was pretty obsessed with all the quidditch stuff. Not that she's been injured and is out of that her whole social groups have definitely changed, so I could see them being more friendly now.
So I was thinking (scary I know ). So Nick is a healer, and since the Battle of Hogwarts he has been covering a lot of quidditch games to keep him busy. Maybe he was there the day she got injured and was the one taking care of her as she went through the healing process and such. Maybe they developed some sort of friendship through that
Oooh! That sounds interesting. She would have definitely been a difficult patient, but I think they could've gotten around to friendship eventually once she grew past just despising her injury and everything involved with it.
