Y38 Hufflepuff Practice

Jordie swooped down and grabbed the quaffle, smiling as he started to lap around the pitch again. "Yo, heads up!" He called, tossing the quaffle to one of the other chasers. Jordie knew he was on the other team, technically, but he chose to ignore that. @Rene Tofilau
 
René felt like Quidditch moved both very quickly and very slowly. He'd been intently watching the quaffle suddenly a lot of things happened at once. Lillith managed to snag the quaffle from Hunter, and before René could react something slammed into him on the side and he nearly slid right off his broom. The hit ached and René felt his teeth click together uncomfortably from the impact, but he was just grateful he'd managed not to get knocked clean off his broom. He was still catching his breath as Lillith tried to score, and next thing he knew, Jordie had thrown him the quaffle for some reason. "Ah, thanks?" he said, looking at the quaffle in confusion before realizing he should probably move.
 
The bludgers were really starting to the fly now and Elliot did his best to stay on the move so he wasn't an easy target. "Good team work, chasers. And good defense, beaters!" he called.

Beaters are out for blood....
Amy x2
Elliot x1
Hunter x1
Jordan x1
Lillith x1
Lucas x1
René x1
 
Tilly circled the pitch, hungry for bludgers, like a shark sniffing out blood.
 
Amy had been keeping an eye out on the bludgers flying around and had missed the quick passes between players. Flying with the other chasers, she tried to keep her eye a little more on the Quaffle.
 
Lillith was a little confused on why Jordie decided to pass to the other team. Was the VS practice over? Could they do practice like before now? She preferred that much more. Still a little confused, Lillith followed suit of Rene.
 
Elliot was still keeping an eye on the team when he saw movement dancing near center pitch. Unable to believe his luck, he shot forward, dodging past the chasers as he moved to scoop up the snitch yet again. "This feels unfair for you somehow," he said quietly to the snitch, laughing awkwardly at himself before letting it back go.
 
Not wanting to waste time, René headed to the hoops, trying to remember how Sully had shown him to throw the quaffle over the holidays. It'd been a lot easier when they'd been practicing in their drive way. On the ground. With a basketball. But René did his best, lobbing the quaffle towards Linden and feeling his shoulder twinge unpleasantly from the bludger. Linden didn't seem to have much trouble blocking his shot however and René tried not to feel too embarrassed.
 
Tilly fended off a bludger and hoped the team would break for water and snacks soon.
 
Seeing a bludger heading for Lucas, Connor flew towards it and swung hard, hoping to hit Elliot. His angle was all wrong though, and he hit his co-Beater instead. "SORRY!" Connor called out to Tilly, giving her a small wave.
@Tilly Drage
 
Amy watched Rene's poop get caught by Linden, and felt a little sorry for the young boy. "Good try, Rene!" She understood how it felt to be the youngest on the team.
 
Jordie winced as Rene missed and the bludgers made another hit. It felt intense, almost like a real game. He watched the others, liking the up close view of the game.
 
After giving the snitch what he hoped was enough time to make itself scarce again, Elliot flew back above the pitch, getting a birds eye view of the game to begin his search again.

The carnage continues....
Amy x2
Elliot x1
Hunter x1
Jordan x1
Lillith x1
Lucas x1
René x1
Tilly x1
 
René hung back as Linden threw the quaffle back in, ducking his head as his teammates called out words of encouragement. It was nice to not feel like a complete failure for missing, and he knew it was his first time in a proper practice, but René wanted to do well still, especially after his fluke of a first shot.
 
Tilly sucked in a breath when Connor's bludger hit her in the leg. Wincing, she gave him a thumbs-up and continued on. After the pain had subsided somewhat, she cracked another bludger, which flew straight into @Linden Cullen.
 
Connor felt more than a little guilty for all the hits he had gotten, flying over to Elliot's side to defend again for a while.
 
Lillith caught the quaffle thrown back into play and passed it to another player. She wasn't focusing entirely and just passed it to the closest person.
 
Lucas couldn't help laughing when Elliot caught the snitch right after him. Though he stopped laughing pretty abruptly when Connor hut a bludger at him. He yelped as it hit him, spinning away for a moment. He tried to smile at Connor to show him it was okay, but it did really hurt. He saw Ellito caught the snitch again too, and he felt a bit frustrated now. He'd caught it once, and Elliot had caught it four times now.

Lillith had passed the quaffle to someone but she couldn't quite remember who. She wondered if she could quickly get some water and come back to practice unnoticed.
 
Tilly was looking forward to taking it easy this afternoon. She protected her teammates from bludgers for now.
 
Jordie caught the quaffle as it was thrown back into play and started his loop around the pitch again.
 
Tilly was really starting to get hungry for some treats. She would have to bug Lillith after practice. Smacking bludgers made her ravenous.
 
Lucas kept searching for the snitch, flying lower to the ground to look around there.
 
Connor spotted a bludger coming close to Elliot and shot towards it, swinging hard and smacking the bludger hard across the pitch and straight into the keeper. "SORRY!" He called out to Linden.
@Linden Cullen
 
Tilly grimaced when she noticed Connor's bludger crash into Linden out of the corner of her eye. Oof, getting hit twice in the span of a short time was no fun. She felt a little twinge of guilt for not protecting the team's keeper.
