Hufflepuff Quidditch Practice: Tryouts Open [[Feb-Apr 2024]]

[BeaterBeast525]

✰ Stretch out my life and pick the seams out. Take what you like, but close my ears and eyes. Watch me stumble over and over. ✰
✰ I had done wrong. You build your tower, but call me home. And I will build a throne. And wash my eyes out, never again. ✰

✰ With skin too tight and eyes like marbles. You spin me high, so watch me as I glide before I tumble homeward, homeward. ✰
✰ I know I tried. I was not stable, and flawed by pride. I miss my sanguine eyes, so hold my hands up. Breathe in and breathe out. ✰

_____________________________________________________

Welp, there went the Quaffle. And he was so close too! Oh well. Cain turned back around and went after them. "I am not a Gramps!" He didn't understand that girl, but she was a decent Chaser, so that's all he really needed to understand at this point. The blue haired teen went in for another steal, hoping to snatch back the scarlet ball from the Second Year girl.

And in the middle of the night I may watch you go.
There'll be no value in the strength of walls that I have grown.
There'll be no comfort in the shade of the shadows thrown.
You may not trust the promises of the change I'll show.
But I'd be yours if you'd be mine. So love the one you hold.
And I'll be your goal. To have and to hold.

The Snitch was soooo close now. It was like... right in front of him! Terren reached out with his right hand. He refused to blink, in case the Snitch suddenly evaded him.

LET it GO, let it ROLL right OFF your shoulders
DON'T you KNOW, the HARDEST part is OVER
LET it IN, let your CLARITY DEFINE YOU
IN the END, we will ONLY just REMEMBER how it FEELS

Our LIVES are MADE, in these SMALL HOURS
These LITTLE WONDERS, these TWISTS and TURNS of FATE
TIME falls AWAY, but these SMALL HOURS
These SMALL HOURS still REMAIN

Let it slide: Frantic
Let it shine: They're starting!
And I don't mind: Hufflepuff Team
We'll get by: Tryouts

Elsie was delighted that Cain had missed trying to steal from her. Not today, blue haired boy! Now she was right before the goals! This was it! She threw the quaffle at them with all her might, hoping the keeper missed.

If you PREPARE FOR THE WORST but HOPE FOR THE BEST you will RARELY BE DISAPPOINTED.

And ALL of my REGRET, I HOPE
Will WASH itself AWAY SOMEHOW
But I CANNOT and WILL NOT FORGET
The WAY I FEEL right NOW

Ally just giggled back at Cain’s shout. They were rocketing down the field, on the crest of a wave. She was so pumped. Cain tried to swipe the Quaffle again but missed and they were almost to the hoops. ”Great save, Elsie. Go for the goal!” If only she could stand up on her broom and hop up and down with excitement. They were so close!

Elsie zoomed up and shot the Quaffle, Ally felt herself holding her breath. She knew that she should be keeping an eye out for Bludgers and readying to retrieve the Quaffle if it was caught, but all she could do was watch the slo-mo sail through the air. Go in. Go in. Go in.

I'm easily excitable
Completely undeniable

Jess was almost to it now. Terren had just tried to grab it and missed, but she wasn't close enough to try and catch it yet, not without falling off her broom. Just a little bit closer, though... and then she'd have a chance. She'd tried to keep her eyes wide open, glad her glasses were protecting them a little.

Ack! It was slipping away from him, and Jess was right on his tail! Terren nervously reached out again, swiping his hand in hopes of grabbing the Snitch.

Jess was right by it now! Terren had just missed again, and she lunged forward and tried to snatch it. If she could do this... it would be wicked awesome. Oh, she hoped she caught it...

No! The Snitch slept right out of his grasp and flew away. Terren tumbled forward, spiraling down towards the ground. He quickly picked himself up, shaking his head to clear his mind. He had to find it again, before Jess caught it. Glancing in her direction, the boy hoped to catch a glimpse of the golden ball.

Jess winced. No! She had just missed it! She sucked in a breath of air and tried again, mentally urging herself on. If she could just catch it, she;d win the game.

Ah-ha! There it was again! Terren sped off after it just as Jess tried for a second catch. Hopefully she would lose sight of it so he could catch up and catch it!... That sounded mean.

Jess sighed at having missed the snitch; even worse she lost sight of it, but Terren seemed to have found it! She looked around desperately, trying to look for a glimpse of gold. Oh, this was bad. She needed to find the little bugger again, or Terren might catch it.

Tobi winced slightly when the bludger hit the kid head on but still grinned. He was getting better at this game! But, lets not get a big head there mate he told himself and went back on the prowl for bludgers. Seeing one zooming its way around the center he flew towards it and decided to hit it towards that new chaser Alastrine and hope for the best.

Jess lost sight of the Snitch, giving Terren room to speed up and get closer to it. If he caught it, he might make the starting team, which would be awesome! But if he did catch it, then Jess wouldn't. Maybe he would give it to her, if he caught it, that is.

Corabell watched the quaffle get stolen up and down the field. Finally, a player got close enough to try for Corabell's goals. Eyes on the quaffle, Corabell dashed to block...

Location: Quidditch Pitch (Hufflepuff try-outs)

Chloe was happy to have gotten the quaffle but it was quickly taken from her. Of course she would keep trying. "Thanks Cain." she said before composing herself. Before she could even race off and get the quaffle back Cain was fighting with the two girls to keep possession of the ball. It made her dizzy and then Elsie through the quaffle for the goal. Luckily Corabell catch it and prevented a goal.
