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

[Voracious Voxy]

And it began again. The back and forth thieving of the Quaffle. Despite the fact that the score was still at zero on both sides and the Seekers were buzzing around the Snitch, Ally was having a grand time playing. Cain had once again nabbed the ball from them and she and Elsie were in hot pursuit. He was good, but she wasn’t about to give up. Darting forward, she snatched for the Quaffle.

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 failed to steal the quaffle, but Ally snatched it back from Cain and turned around. The blonde girl veered as well. But then Cain got the quaffle back and she was turning yet again. All of this was starting to make her stomach queasy. But she couldn't stop now. Adrenaline had kicked in. She shot towards the blue haired boy and tried to steal once more before he could pass it off to someone else.

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

Chloe saw Ally go for the quaffle and take it from Cain. She had to provide back up. He wasn’t doing this alone. Luckily Chloe forgot about the fact she was up height and was purely concentrating on the game. Secretly her brother was proud of her for her effort up there. However it looked like Cain didn’t need her help as he got the quaffle back. Following him along she waited for him to either need her help to to pass her the ball.

☮ Wake up kids, we've got the dreamers disease. Age 13, we got you down on your knees. So polite, you're busy still saying please.
☮ Fri-enemies, who when you're down ain't your friend. Every night we smash their Mercedes-Benz. First we run and then we laugh till we cry.

But when the night is falling, and you cannot find the light. If you feel your dream is dying, hold tight... You've got the music in you! ☮
This whole damn world can fall apart. You'll be okay. Follow your heart. You're in harms way. I'm right behind. Now say you're mine. ☮

No Snitch. Terren lost sight of it and fell behind. Now, Jess sped past him, obviously hunting the Snitch. He circled around, hoping to catch a glimpse of the tiny golden monstrosity.

✰ 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. ✰

Two steal attempts, and he still had the Quaffle. The goals were approaching quickly, causing Cain to grin. He ducked down and tossed the Quaffle to Chloe. It was time for her to give this a try. "Go for the goals, Chloe! Quick!" he called out. He knew she could do it, if the Thieving Twins didn't get to her first.

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.

Chloe grabbed the quaffle as it was thrown to her. "Right." she said quickly making her way to the goal she lined herself up and let it fly. Throwing it towards the goal hoping she’d score. Her brother had said she was good at it… then again he could have just been being nice.

Raph smiled slightly as his hit made contact with his opposing Beater. He wanted to feel good about it and cheer but that seemed a bit show boaty. Instead he took aim and struck at Chloe

Jess was hot on the trail of the snitch. She was so close now! Just a little bit closer, and she would be within grabbing distance. She strained forward, hands shaking a little. But she kept a good grip on her broom and got ready to try and snatch it out of the air.

Jess was closing in on the Snitch. Things just got intense. Terren had to find the Snitch soon, or it would be too late! Emerald eyes scanned the area, searching for the golden orb that continued avoided him.

Jess found herself right behind the snitch. She closed her eyes for a second, before flicking them open and stretching out one steady hand. She could do this. She could.

Jess gasped as her hand closed over the fluttering snitch. She clenched it tightly, broom jerking to a halt. Had she just... "I CAUGHT IT!" she shrieked aloud. "I CAUGHT THE SNITCH!" This was the best feeling ever. She raised her clenched hand over her head, beaming so hard that it hurt. She could barely believe it.

Tobi barely had time to recover from the bludger he'd been trying to hit barrel backwards onto his shoulder before he was hit in the back by another sent from the opposing "team's" beater. He grit his teeth but had to give it to the younger player, he'd been practicing that was for sure. Seeing the chaser's had worked themselves in a small frenzy made him chuckle (albeit a tad painfully) before he saw that Jess had caught the snitch. Seeing himself being summoned he flew over to Dhylan and listened to his set of commands and nodded before keeping hold of his broom with only one hand and allowing a shrill whistle to come from his two fingers and mouth. "OI! LISTEN UP NOW. The Cap'n's gotta deal with somethin' right quick, probably prefect related, so now I'm in charge! An' since Miss Jess has already done us the favor of catchin' the snitch we ain' gotta wrestle around lookin' for it. So you know what that means?" Tobi's grin took on an almost maniacal spirit. "Team switcheroo! I saw the way some of you fought agains' one another for the quaffle, now ya gotta share it with yer teammate. So! Team One is gonna be Alastrine, Cain, Chloe for chasers, Corabell's keeper, Raphael's beater, and Jess for seeker.
Team Two is gonna be Elsbeth, Adalaide for chasers, Jarlath's keeper, I'll be beater, an' Terren for seeker. Rules are still the same: beaters can aim at anyone besides the seeker and chasers are first and foremost to get the quaffle and score. Well..within the lines of legality and reason o'course." the Hufflepuff smirked. Tobi found the quaffle near the goal post and went after it and made sure he had all eyes on him before he called out, "GAME ON!" and threw it back up in the air and flew the heck out of their before the chasers came swarming.

Chloe was trying to score but it was of little consequence. Jess caught the Snitch and the game was over. Their side would have lost. But still, it was a good effort. Ally felt good about what she had done. Tobi called out new teams to them. She and Elsie were split up. She was on a team now with Cain and Chloe. With a small laugh, she turned around so that she was alongside Cain. Giving a tiny shrug and smiling broadly she tittered, ”Age is relative…mate.”

With that, Tobi through the Quaffle up in the air to start the play and it was time to go. Swooping in, Ally dove for the Quaffle.
