Camila combed her hair back with her fingers and tied it up quickly. She nodded to herself when she heard her position as chaser, sounded easy. On the back of her thoughts, she wondered what exactly was going on with the upperclass players, but knew better than to try and pry. Instead, she commanded her broom up, slipped her foot around the seat and lifted herself up to her position. It felt... odd, being all alone. It was her against Ashley, and only one beater above head to defend them each. She glanced at Mira, nodded to her in the moment before the game began and then took off for the quaffle as soon as it was released.

"Popular" my a**, Yvonne thought. Not many people showed up, out of so many more students, and it sort of made the girl wonder why. Was it because of its intensity? Or the fact that people would get hurt to the point of getting multiple concussions? Yvonne didn't know. At least, though, the position she was trying out for provided her with a mean to defend herself: the beater bat. Sure, this meant that she had to put herself in harm's way to direct a bludger here and there, but it was better than be an itty bitty seeker, who was probably the main target of every other beater alive.
"Hey Ashie, guess I won't be the one breaking your bones." She could've used much vulgar language, like, "I won't be breaking your face today," or something like that. She hovered on her broom, mentally snickering over the fact that she had a bat, and she was unstoppable.
Mira listened to the instructions and then short up onto her broom. Looking at who was all out on the field it didn't look like many came. 'Why?' she wondered. Sure people had personal problems but it didn't make any sense to her. They needed a team or they couldn't compete end of story. Shaking her head Mira figured she'd provide a little cover for her teammate and fire at Ashley.
Ashley cocked an eyebrow at his friend before he mounted his broom."Just remember, beaters take as much damage as other positions, maybe even more so, from bludgers. Watch yourself."After that, he shot into the air, reaching out to grab the quaffle hopefully before Camila had a chance to.

Ashley grinned, tucking the ball under one arm and making his way down the pitch toward the goals. He planned to hold onto it, and wasn't about to let Camila havea chance at it. Besides, seemed like a good practice, he just needed to get warmed up.

Surely, people exaggerated the danger of getting hit by a bludger--surely, no one is as blind as to sit there and not do anything as one of those balls came flying by. Of course, there were those rare cases in which the iron ore came at them in their blindspot. Or something. Just be more careful, and all would be well.
The first year was already getting hit-happy when she sent a bludger straight at Ashley. He can handle it, she thought. Now it's time to show the freshmeat how it's really done (even though the first year probably has had more experience than she did).
Seymour Benjamin Ryans of course knew about Slytherin's many problems in quidditch due to various personal problems of their team's players. Apparently, they couldn't keep themselves out of trouble and what not. He wasn't really one to pay all that much attention. Honestly, he liked flying and thought quidditch could be enjoyable, but Seymour knew he wasn't the type to want to show up to every practice or necessary put in the work to actually be a decent team player. Somewhere along the way his parents heard about the whole thing and that his house would probably have to have emergency try-outs, and both his parents said it would be a good idea if he tried out at least. Apparently, he'd be less lazy or something if he had something set beyond just classes to go to.
Seymour still was way late to the emergency try-outs when they came and he figured that he'd just be told to leave or whatever though when Seymour showed up he was a bit surprised by how few people were actually there. Was there even enough for a whole team on the pitch. Sighing, Seymour picked up a form and filled it in. Well, he knew he could at least show up for games if he had to and that was apparently more than could be said about many of the current players if rumors were anything to go by. He scribbled in the form and sat down on the bench and looked up at the try-outs already going on. He wasn't going to jump into that mess unless he was told to. Besides it looked like try-outs had been going on for a while. At least he made it a point the whole 'on time' thing wasn't necessarily his style most of the time.

Mira was not happy missing and then getting nailed by Yvonne. That did it, instantly Mira was aggravated and wanted to get this dealt with. Winding up her swing she found the next closest bludger and hit it right at Yvonne.‘Let’s see how she likes it…’

Slytherin Try-Outs 2027
Early that morning, Dmitri had gathered a barrel of school brooms for first years and hauled a wooden chest to the center of the field. His own broom had been discarded for now as he set out several scraps of parchment and a self inking quill on the chest for students to fill out. Last year had almost been a disaster, but even so, they managed to triumph win after win until the very end. He wasn't disappointed that he'd lost the house cup, it only made him more determined now. While he waited, he polished his broom. His thoughts took flight and he had to wonder which familiar faces would find themselves out on the field. He hoped Ana would be one of them.

Mira had gotten a broom for her birthday which was a surprise to her. So she made sure to get up bright and early despite how much she just wanted to go back to bed. Something told her she needed to be on the pitch before Benjamin. Honestly she had such a complex with Quidditch and being better then everybody. Luckily for Mira she managed to get to the pitch before anyone else on the team, not including Dmitri the captain of the team. "Morning," she greeted her captain before taking a form and filling it out. It was pretty much the same as the following year except she could say she was enrolled in advanced flying and had one year of experience on her belt. Evidently she couldn't complain.

Ashley walked purposefully down to the pitch, his broom over one shoulder and his sights set on the team already assembled. He'd already agreed to be the vice-captain, and well, it was interesting. The raven-haired Slytherin got down there and crossed his arms."So, how big of a turnout do you expect, or will this be a repeat of last year?"Frankly, he hoped it wasn't. If it was, he had a sword upstairs in his trunk with someone's name on it that he would use to stab someone's face repeatedly if the team was short members, or had players that once they tried out didn't show for games.

Benjamin sighed as he walked onto the field and saw the Captain-some grouchy Russian bloke-and some other upperclassman and of course Mira was already there. And that was it. No one else. Nada. Then he realized how early it was and cursed under his breath shortly in Spanish and muttered taking a form unhappily and muttered, "Yo podría haber dormido en más." He figured he was there early, it sure as Hell should count for something, otherwise he might just kill someone. After all, he was ruining his slacker reputation he held so dear.

Camila was glad that she wasn't one of the first to arrive, she hated to wait, especially if it was in silence which would have been the case had it been just her and the captains. She had placed her bets that Yaxley would make vice-captain over the fifth years, their track record was a bit slacking, from what she saw so far. None of it really mattered to her, anyway, but she loved to speculate. Cami reared up beside Mira and greeted her with a smile. ”Mira, 'ello,” she paused to take her turn in line to snatch up a parchment to fill out. ”How was your summer?” She regretted not having more chances to talk to the second year. Practices hardly left any opportunity, especially when they were so short-handed last year. She supposed she could have sat with her and Wendy at the sorting feast, but she always enjoyed welcoming the first years.

"Beating up kids," certainly didn't look good on any kind of resume's. However, being a "beater" is different, for this position held the power to knock out any opponents and defend any allies. Yvonne, honestly, loved the feeling of invincibility when holding the bat, and especially in her enemies' eyes at the realization that she, the Slytherin girl, would punch their faces in (with a bludger hit). "Yo," she greeted.
