“The Slytherin team was standing waiting for them. They, too, were wearing those silver crown-shaped badges. The new Captain, Montague, was built along the same lines as Dudley Dursley, with massive forearms like hairy hams. Behind him lurked Crabbe and Goyle, almost as large, blinking stupidly, swinging their new Beaters’ bats. Malfoy stood to one side, the sunlight gleaming on his white-blond head. He caught Harry’s eye and smirked, tapping the crown-shaped badge on his chest.” – OotP, chapter 19

don’t you just love how as harry’s eyes travel along the slytherin team their description goes like ‘an ugly gorilla, another two ugly gorillas’ and then out of nowhere there’s malfoy with his white-blond hair gleaming in the sun. like. this was just so unnecessarily poetic

harry, my dude, my guy, you’re about to have a very intense quidditch match, now is not the time
