The seventh year silently fumbled with the wooden chest; the four balls were neatly kept and the throttle of the caged bludgers wriggled the trunk back and forth in the air. His wand guided it carefully, but his brows arched in concentration to ensure the silent magic wouldn’t break at the faintest distraction. He’d was ruddy dreadful at wandless magic, and almost near as bad with silent casting-- but he just needed practice. His broom was tossed over his shoulder and the limb of his arm twisted around the neck. Dominic was early, the sun blazed high overhead and the clouds swept at a quick pace under the rush of the wind. The grass sliced at his ankles and his quidditch robes tangled around his feet. But soon, the potential Slytherins would file into the quidditch field and he was waiting. Several slips of parchment were quills lined the wooden top of the chest. ”Feel free to snag a slip and fill it out while we wait for the rest of the mates to show.” Dominic announced to those students who would be arriving. He hoped Darius would arrive soon; he had to catch him in the common room after the sorting feast to be able to finally ask, now he just wondered when he would show up.

"Broken glass, shattered shards. As my sweet relents, my bitter comes forth. Prepare for the end."
Claire Alexandrie walked out on the field, it was time. She was a second year...she could try out with a higher chance than a first year. she could do this. Of course Claire was going to try for a beater position...but if that failed a chaser or some such would still be good. So long as she made it, that is.
She needed something to distract her from the voice in her head, and quidditch was a great way to do just that. Spotting a slip of parchment and quills, she took a small breath and proceeded to fill out her information.
...She could do this.

►▷►Joshua walked onto the Pitch, his new MoonTrimmer in hand. Brown fluffy hair was pushed away from the grey-blue eyes the boy had become known for glaring through. He gave a polite nod to the new Captain, then blinked when he noticed the blonde. "Claire?! You're going to try out?!" He couldn't believe it! Oh well. He had to worry about himself right now! The preteen grabbed a sign-in form, then filled it out using a pen he'd grabbed from the chest. He was determined to do better this year than last!

Daniel strolled down to the pitch, taking his time to enjoy the walk. The field was nearly empty, he appeared to be the fourth to arrive. Ugh, ickle second years. Grabbing a slip he filled it out and handed it back.

Darius came to the pitch he started to stretch a bit getting loosed up. He had a focused look on his face, Dom made him Vice captain and despite how much he hated responsibility he said yes. He wondered who would show up for the try outs he was sure he and Dominic would get to to beaters most of the chasers would be new. He and Dom would need to be on there a games if they wanted to win and rack up points.

Striding up the field, the first year looked around, feeling excited about the tryouts. Hopefully she'd be able to achieve something here, it was a nice feeling, trying out something new. Taking a form, the blonde filled it up with a pen she'd brought with her. To be honest, quills weren't exactly her style. Sort of hassling for her. Finishing it up, she went to wait at the side, twirling her pen idly as they stood vigil.

Ashley walked onto the pitch, his eyes already taking in the scene before him. Well, this was interesting. He'd seen plenty of Quidditch games, professional ones, that is, and he'd always wanted to try playing. He took a form with a nod to the captain and set out to fill it out before turning it back in. He had grabbed a school broom, and now looked around at everyone else, waiting to see what else was happening. Nothing much, so he proceeded to do some stretches beforehand.

I have screamed until my veins collapsed I've waited as my time's elapsed Now, all I do is live with so much hate
I've wished for this, I've bitched at that I've left behind this little fact: You cannotkill what you did not create
I've gotta say what I've gotta say And then I swear I'll go away But I can't promise you'll enjoy the noise.

Dmitri trodded softly through the field, the high stadium walls towered high to the heavens, the stands gyrated the field and the bannisters emblazoned the checkered colors of the four houses. The winds whistled through the wooden structure as he sauntered through the pitch to reach his teammates. Familiar faces scrawled out before him, except one; she was a blonde with a startling green eye, the other was hidden behind cloth, maybe bandages. He’d never really noticed her before, but, she certainly wasn’t going to be easily forgotten know. He wondered how the disability might hinder her performance, and hell, even a slimy part of his brain rationalized that he’d have the better chance at making first string. To be honest, he always imagined himself as a keeper. But with two new positions open for chaser, it was his best bet, especially once he finished his last advanced flying class. He slung his broom away from behind his neck and leaned it against his chest as he knelt down for the quick few moments to fill out a form and wait with the rest. He stretched, loosening his tight muscles as he waited to begin the try outs.

Jaslyn walked onto the pitch quiet as a mouse. She spotted her half brother immediately, and quickly darted past him to grab a form. She didn't want to talk to or associate with any of her 'family', even Darius. It was all water under the bridge to her and she didn't want to bring up bad memories. She hummed a soft tune under her breath as she quickly filled out the form and handed it back to Dominic, her new captain.
All she could do was offer him a small smile and then skip off to stretch. Her only thought in Quidditch was catch the snitch. Nothing more. She would never have distractions during a game again. Her asshat of an ex boyfriend could get bludgeoned all he liked, he wouldn't be distracting her this year, and as much as she cared for her best friend, she might even cheer if he knocked himself out of the game. It was Gryffindor's year this year, and she was determined to make it as hard as possible on them.

Kenny knew this was a mistake coming here, He knew next to nothing about the sport and was not overly big on the whole sport and team building junk but part of him really did not care he just wanted the shiny winged ball. He made his way down to the pitch and looked around at the other first years wondering how many of them really knew what they where going to do. He only really saw this game once when his parents brought him to see his cousin's game.

Hope that you spend your days But they all add up And when that sun goes down Hope you raise your cup
Jer strolled onto the pitch, watching the group curiously. He'd contemplated joining before, but had always decided not to go through with it. He had enough people deciding he was worthless, and well, this was probably the one group that would do that to him. He plopped down on the grass, watching as the rest filled out forms and waved toward Kenny."Oi! Knock 'em dead, garden!"It was definitely odd being in his usual house colors, but he figured he didn't want to get kicked out before he saw how well Kenny did.

His hand wiped his mouth, mentally tallying up the numbers in his head and how to even out the game. The last of lingering players had arrived, which thankfully had included every seasoned player and a few new potentials. He sighed, releasing a breath that struggled in his throat since the first few faces had arrived. As the slips were filled and the Sytherins waited anxiously, Dominic quickly pilfered through the slips with a sharp eye and cleared his throat. ”Aw, righ’, so, to start, I’m your captain, Dominic Montague, and I’d like you mates to congratulate your new vice-captain, Darius Silver...
“Quidditch, is a simple game, the object is to get the red quaffle through those hoops,” he explained with a pointed finger on either side of the pitch towards the three goal posts. ”The keeper, blocks the quaffle from scoring. The chasers are those mates who are trying to score, each goal is ten points. Then, there’s the bludgers, nasty little things they are, and it’s the beaters jobs to defend their own players and knock out the opponents. Finally, is the golden snitch, whoever catches the little bugger gets one hundred fifty points and ends the game.
“You’ll be divided into two teams, the green team, and the silver. For the green team: Daniel and Anita, you’ll be the chasers, Josh and Claire’ll be the beaters, and Virgil’ll play as keeper. For the silver, Ashley and Dmitri, you’ll be chasers. Darius you’ll play as the beater, and I’ll play as keeper for now.
“Jazz, you’ll be leading Kenneth out to try as seeker, and Kenny... if you can catch that snitch, you can keep it. In abou’ thirty minutes, I’ll switch up the players so everyone can have a chance.
“Now, mount your brooms, get into positions and when I release the balls, you can begin.” He nodded to each, it was basic and he explained more than some, so he hoped there wouldn’t be any questions. He almost hadn’t even noticed Jeremy stroll onto the field until he heard him cheering on of the players on. But who? While the snakes lurched onto their brooms and rose high into the field, Dominic unleashed the snitch. Then, he unlatched the rowdy twin bludgers that barreled into the sky and he snatched the quaffle under his arm. He mounted his broom and flew the center between the chasers of each team. ”Ready?” He nodded and hurled the edged quaffle high up into the air starting the beginning of the game and then raced to defend the goal posts on the silver team.

Jaslyn nodded to Dom and waited silently for the snitch to be released. The minute the golden ball whizzed out into the air, she glanced at Kenny and smirked. "Come on kid. Lets see if you can beat me." She shouted, before darting into the air on her broom and rocketing up high above the rest of the players. From there, she floated lazily, red eyes darting over the pitch, waiting for the moment she spotted gold.
