Jenna walked the stands and she was so excited see Daintree playing. She wanted screem for him and cheer up. Hufflepuff girl take her place and looked the game. Flying the broom always was fun looking and she wanted be brave and next time join the team.

Brooke knew house pride was an important part of her school experience, but she couldn't help but be a touch wary as she entered the stands, keeping her eyes peeled for Liusaidh, or even worse, Rosenberg. The last thing Brooke wanted was to get caught up with those two quarreling when she just wanted to enjoy the game. She loved that Slytherin were the reigning champions and she hoped that they continued that streak again this year.
 
Nicole was excited for another quidditch season, taking time to carefully paint her face with some green and silver hearts that she hoped looked cute and festive enough to support her house. Making her way up to the stands, she was glad to see Jenna there, moving over to join her. "Hey, you here to support Hufflepuff or your boooyfriend," She sing-songed, giving Jenna a friendly nudge and giggling. It'd be nice if Jenna was here to cheer for the same team as her, but Nicole was sure they'd have fun either way, though Nicole was still a bit envious that Jenna had an actual boyfriend who was on the quidditch team. @Jenna Jusantrea
 
"Hey, and where is the hug?" She looked to Nicol and whanted tell her. But she was right but scared to was play Hufflepuff and Slytherin but she wss there for Daintree. "I'm afraid say Daintree becouse play Hufflepuff" She felt a little gilty.

@Nicole Fisk
 
Nicole laughed, giving Jenna a tight hug when she complained. "Don't worry, you can secretly cheer for Daintree, I won't tell anyone," She said, glancing out to the pitch to see if they could spot anyone on the field yet. @Jenna Jusantrea
 
"Now that better!" Jenna hugged her best friend and let her go. "I will find you if you tell. I wanted screem for him but not to loud. How are you?" Jenna wanted know how was going her best friend.

Elara was very excited to attend her first Quidditch game at school, and while it wasn't for her house, the Gryffindor still wanted to show support for the other teams. She had placed her hair into pigtails that held yellow streamers and was wearing discreet snake earrings. The girl hadn't forgotten her promise to Valencia about taking her to the first game. This way, she could explain things to the muggleborn and hopefully encourage her to ask questions to someone who was at least less judgemental than other students. Walking through the stands, she found the Ravenclaw and took a seat beside her. "Hey! Are you excited?" she asked, putting on a big smile.

@Valencia Addington
 
Valencia was a little nervous to watch her first game of Quidditch, especially after her second lesson of Flying lessons. She was already terrified of heights, how the heck did people even manage to fly on brooms? Especially those players who hold a bat with one hand and them holding onto the broom on the other hand. It just seemed totally unsafe for her. She had slowly and timidly made her way to the stands, finding a seat. There weren't many students so far, so it was easy for Valencia to find a good seat. She glanced around the pitch, taking in the scenery and imagined what the game would be like. She had hoped that Elara wouldn't mind if Valencia had asked a lot of questions about the game. She had done some basic research about the game, but there were probably going to be some more questions throughout the game that Valencia had. Valencia turned as she heard a familiar voice. "Hey. I think so. Are you?" Valencia greets the Gryffindor, as she replies a little unsurely.

Harper normally didn't attend Quidditch games unless Gryffindor was playing. The game made zero sense, and all of the parts that were fun to watch — chasers squaring off with keepers, people dodging bludgers — ultimately had little bearing on which team ended up the winner. But this year, several of her friends had made the Hufflepuff team, and she wanted to support them. It seemed especially important that she come out today since it would be their first match.

Finding Hufflepuff colors in her limited wardrobe had been hard, but Harper managed to scrounge up a yellow t-shirt and a pair of black leggings. She'd arrived a bit early and didn't spot anyone she knew, so she picked a seat high up in the stands. As she waited for the game to start, she tried to come up with some cheers for her friends. Unfortunately, their names didn't exactly make the task easy. How on earth was she supposed to find something that rhymed with Lillith?
 
Professor Kingsley rarely missed games. She'd played quidditch as a teen, and had even captained her team for a time. All of her children had played as well, and she was eager to watch her youngest take the field for the first time. Hearing that she was in the starting lineup, Cyndi grinned. She could not wait to see Ellie play.
 
Finn was pretty sure of a couple of things in life. One was that he would never accept being an alt and the other thing was that he didn't need Quidditch to be happy. Since the first one happened, he had withdrew himself from the team. He saw absolutely no reason in being an alt for another three years, that was just stupid. Since he had absolutely no loyalty towards Hufflepuff, he never actually had he had made a giant cardboard banner in the Slytherin colours. It said: Go Penny Go, hit those bludgers! Finn didn't care about houses, nor about house points.

Not being an alt or in any team made things easier, he looked at the bench that currently held the other puny idiots that were still alts. Why would you want to be benched on purpose that was just stupid. Finn grinned and held up his giant banner. On his face he had a green stripe and a silver stripe on the other side. ''GOOO PENNY'' Even though Penny was an alt, he did understand her position, he only couldn't be bothered to be benched for three years. His skills should have been recognized by the team captains.
 
Chloë was curious for the first game of the year, happily making her way up the stands so she could find a good spot to watch. She was glad her own team didn't have to play right away, that they'd be in the second match. Finding an empty spot she watched as the players entered the field, mainly focussed on her cousin. They weren't the best of friends yet like they used to, but at least Paige had been trying and she had been glad to hear she had managed a starter position on the team. Chloë wasn't externally rooting for any team in particular today, but she was secretely hoping hufflepuff would grab the win. It would be nice to see slytherin lose for a change, even if she would wish her cousin a win.
 
Val had heard about some weird magical sport in hogwarts and he wanted to see what it was with his own eyes. The boys in his dorms seemed to be talking about it a lot and he had overheard their conversations more than a couple of times. He still hadn't managed to make any friends but he didn't care to. Everyone except that guy he met in the moving painting floor and his sister seemed to be loud and/or annoying, though of course he hadn't actually talked to anyone else. It seemed that his sister had managed to make a friend though, she was talking to a girl in his house, whom he had also not talked to. He smiled a little bit before putting a blank face back on, sitting a good distance away from them. He didn't want to bother Lenny's much more successful attempt at interacting with other people. Looking back at the pitch, the place was full of yellow and green colors, the house colors of the other houses, bumblebee and snakeryn or something like that.
 
Isaiah was absolutely stoked for the first game of the year, hurriedly making his way over to the pitch and up the stands when he noticed he'd almost run late as well. He didn't see Noah yet, even if they had pretty much made an unwritten pact to watch all the games together back in brighstone, but he figured his friend would turn up sooner or later. He did notice one of the other boys from his dorm and another kid he had met on the train. Looking back and forth he eventually decided the boy, Val if he remembered, did not look as excited as the girl he'd met did which made the decision for him. "Hey El!" Zay smiled excitedly as he hopped down onto the bench next to the girl as if they were friends already after having met once. He was also not even sure if she had agreed to the nickname back on the train or not. If she didn't like it he figured he'd find out soon enough. "Hi." He nodded his head at the other girl with a smile as well. "You guys mind if I sit here?" @Elara Chatelain @Valencia Addington
 
The first game of the season, and it was a match between Alice's current boyfriend and her ex boyfriend. Both boys were seekers and both boys were captains of their respective teams. Alice had never wanted Hufflepuff to win more than today. Deep down, she wasn't sure what she wanted more, to see Elliot win or to see Blake have to deal with losing. Alice was decked out in Hufflepuff colors, wearing yellow and black facepaint, as well as a yellow ribbon in her hair. She had a sign that read in big letters: GO ELLIOT! And she had even drawn some yellow and black hearts around his name. She was proud to be with him, and proud to cheer for him this way. Alice knew that Diana would have died of shame if she saw this, but thankfully Diana wasn't here anymore to disapprove. Once the match started, Alice started to cheer, holding up her sign. She was glad that Hufflepuff started the match on a positive note by grabbing the quaffle, but it was difficult for her to pay attention to anyone but the seeker of the team.
 
Lars was feeling strange about watching this match, but he also knew he wasn't going to miss it for the world. He felt strangely conflicted as he watched Elliot and Blake on the field, still feeling a strange loyalty to Elliot even when he was rooting for Blake deep down. Not that he could show that without raising questions. So Lars was just wearing his own Ravenclaw scarf, and nothing from each house. He had brought a notebook, as if he was taking notes on the match as Ravenclaw captain. But all he had done so far while he waited for the match to start was doodle little flowers on the paper. When the match began, Lars leaned forward. He watched as Blake took to the air, and whispered a ' good luck' to him under his breath.
 
Lysander was looking forward to the match between Slytherin and Hufflepuff. For once, he wasn't divided on who to support, donning yellow colours to the stands. He took a seat at the front and got ready to watch, spotting Linden and Connor among the Hufflepuff players in the air. He was looking forward to this, and seeing Connor especially in action, and what he'd be like as a beater. Not as good as himself, he hoped, but he looked forward to it all the same.​
 
"Go Go Daintree!" She was screem for Daintree and she wanted cheer up her boyfriend to. @Daintree Vaskevold. Jenna made her promise to him and she was grate mood today and she did it.
 
If Kas was being honest, he didn't have high hopes for the Hufflepuff team. As much as Kas would like to actually cheer for the winning team for once, Slytherin had a track record for grinding their opponents into the dirt and Kas wasn't sure how much fun that'd be to watch. But here he was anyway, if only to watch Connor knock a few bludgers around. Lucas was on the bench as well, but Kas quietly hoped he'd not have to play, if only because it meant things would be going pretty bad if he was called up.

Joining the stands, Kas dropped into a spot by Lysander just as Hufflepuff grabbed the quaffle, clapping wanly. "So, in your wise captain's opinion, who's your money on today?" He asked him, immediately hissing in sympathy as their seeker got hit by a bludger. @Lysander Summers
 
Nicole mimed zipping her lip and giggled, about to answer Jenna's question when the game started to get underway. "Oh look, there he is!" She said, unnecessarily nudging Jenna when she spotted Daintree on the field. They didn't get off to the best start with Hufflepuff taking the quaffle and managing to score, but then Daintree hit a bludger right at the Hufflepuff seeker and Nicole let out an excited squeal. @Jenna Jusantrea
 
"Do you think he heard? I was not to laud?" She giggled and looked to shcooked and what will be think other hufflepuffs? Daintree was looked so cool the broom and she wached the game and Wendall was not going here? She looked for him."What you doing later the game?" She asked with warm smile.

More people started to file into the stands, and Harper saw that several were carrying signs. Maybe she should have done that. Oh well, she could yell loud enough to make up for it. And at least now she had flexibility in changing her cheers whenever she wanted.

The game got off to a great start as Hunter grabbed the quaffle. Just seconds later, Tilly hit a bludger. It missed, but Harper was sure she'd get another chance. "GO TILLY, KNOCK THEM SILLY!" She watched as the chasers spread out, and it reminded her a bit of her old football games. For a second, she wished she'd tried out to be a chaser as well, but she knew that while Quidditch might be fun, it would never be satisfying. Not when chasers could only score ten points at a time.

Hunter managed to score, and Harper let out a cheer. She still couldn't quite figure out how to fit in something that rhymed with his name, so she decided to work around that. "HEY SLYTHERIN, YOU JUST GOT STUNG! BY ROBINSON, WHO'S NUMBER ONE!" She had barely finished her cheer when the Hufflepuff seeker got hit, causing her to wince. It was kind of dumb that no matter how well her friends did, the game would ultimately come down to whichever seeker was lucky enough to find the snitch first.
 
Lysander beamed at Kas as he joined him, sitting straighter in his seat and looking back toward the pitch to mull the question over. "In my expert captain opinion, Slytherin has better chances. They've got a stronger streak. They only just managed to beat us last year, and Gryffindor is one of the best teams, so." He half-joked. Realistically he did think his house were one of the best, even if they consistently failed to beat Slytherin. He just wanted a chance to play against one of the foreign teams, and they kept losing it right at the end. "Blake is a pretty good seeker and Elliot's already taken a hit, but they do have Paige playing beater this match, so if he goes out they might not sub her in as seeker this time." He pointed them out animatedly as he spoke, his fingertip trailing through the air until it found the Hufflepuffs he was after. "But Puff has some solid beaters now too. They gotta be built, and just look at them. A bludger from her would hurt, and Connor could probably knock Blake out of the sky easy. One of them needs to cover Elliot though." He suggested, slumping back down. "I want Hufflepuff to win, but I dunno. Oh, hey, they scored!" He finished, realising Hufflepuff had already taken an early lead. It was still too early to tell, but he'd take it.​

Emma had been unsure who to root for this match. She wished her brother was playing, becuase now she would have to play against him next time. Unfortunately, Emma was sure they were going to beat Ravenclaw, though she hoped that she wasn't going to have to beat too may bludgers at Lars. She had been wondering if she should sit with him in the stands, but then she spotted Lysander and she forgot all about that. He was talking to Kas from Hufflepuff, and Emma popped up next to them with a grin. "Hey!" She said, looking at the match. "Who are you guys rooting for? I think I'm rooting for Hufflepuff, the Slytherin captain was mean to my brother." She commented, frowning a bit. "And they need to stop winning already." She added. She listened to Lysander's analysis of the game, nodding along. It made sense that he was captain, he knew what he was talking about. Emma cheered when Hufflepuff scored, but then boo'd when Slytherin scored.
