though he's a Chaser, the Snitch is easy to carry around and a good 
thing to impress reflexes with. I'm just not understanding why so 
many people are asking why he has a Snitch if he's a Chaser. He 
can't very well carry a Quaffle around, can he?

Me:
That's a very good point. Not sure why that wasn't my first 
reaction, though.

Snitch, he snuck it out.

Me:
Not showing off that he bought it, but playing with the invention of 
his great-great-great-great-great grandfather, and hoping a certain 
somebody notices this and asks him during the course of the 
conversation, "Why are you playing with a Snitch when you play 
Chaser?" so he can respond "I'm related to the inventor!" and she 
can deduce that he's rich because of this (didn't JKR say that James 
inherited a bunch of money?). I wouldn't put that past Showoffat15!
James.  

Lilac, still wondering what James did to change Lily's mind in years 
6 and 7...
