Will's confidence quickly got to a more manageable level as the bludger he was trying to hit rammed into him. He couldn't believe it.

In your eyes I see your broken soul, And there's nowhere for my spirit to go,
See the light that burns inside of you, And I know that I'll be close to you
Into the darkness we can fly
Upon the wings of your desire, I see the light

Celaena was a little disappointed when no one had come to get the quaffle back yet. With a shrug she continued towards the goals. Maybe they knew she was older? More experienced? Or waiting for her guard to be down

Arianna playfully stuck her tongue out at the older chaser as she swept in and stole the ball right back from the older girl. This game was definitely getting interesting with this group of players. She thought to herself as she started her trek back towards the gold hoops.

Addie growled as she completely missed her target. That is not the example she wanted to set for the younger players who were trying out for their first time. She found another stray bludger and wound up with her bat and swung hard.

The tiny winged sphere darted from her grasp at the last moment, Dani adjusted her course as she attempted to grab it again.

Crap, the young girl thought to herself as she watched the older and more experienced girl catch the snitch on her second try. The young brunette caught up to the girl. "Wow, you're good." She complimented the older student.

"Not half as good as Julius was, but thanks," said Dani wistfully, missing her former teammate's absence more keenly than she had before. It wasn't right she was here as the, now, likely senior Keeper, while he ...well...wasn't, but that was how things turned out. Looking at the tiny golden orb in her gloved grasp, she asked, "You suppose Pru will want us to let this loose so we can have another go at it?"

Dear Prudence, greet the brand new day!
The sun is up, the sky is blue...
It's beautiful and so are you!
Dear Prudence, open up your eyes.
Dear Prudence, see the sunny skies.
Look around, round and round-

Pru tucked her clipboard under her arm when Dani caught the snitch and yelled, "Alright, everyone on the ground!", not out of anger, but out of haste, seeing as their time for using the pitch was nearing its end. Besides, she had her team. She landed, getting off her broom and readjusting her ponytail. "Thank you all for coming out, and for playing your best. I think if we can all work together, we might have a decent shot at doing pretty well for ourselves this year." That was either going to turn out to be a Moment of Truth or a massive lie, she thought grimly. "I don't see any reason to put this off, since I've made my decisions. I'll be playing keeper, no surprise there. Chasers will be Celaena, Arianna, and Joel. Our seeker is Dani. The beaters are Nina and Addie. Hold on, I'm not done. Reserves. Dante, you'll be keeper reserve. William, you'll be first beater reserve, Asteria, you'll be second. Bethany, you're our reserve seeker. Also, I need a vice captain, so, Joel, that's you. Congrats." She looked over them all with a steady gaze, not anticipating any complaints. Everyone had made either first or second string, after all. "If you're injured, there's healing potions. Make sure you all take your stuff with you when you leave. And if someone could help me wrestle the bludgers back into the case, that'd be great."

Tryouts are now officially over.
