Y41 Slytherin Quidditch Practice Semester Two

[Liusaidh Styx]

Liusaidh was stood at the pitch as the team arrived. She gave everyone a moment to get there and then cleared her throat when they did. "Right, in the air," Liusaidh didn't give much preamble, just motioned for them to get in the air, afterall, they were already in the final, they had to just win against hufflepuff and they could certainly do that.

ooc- no arrivals, let's just get started

Slytherin,Practice

 

[Seamus Reid]

Seamus arrived at the pitch and immediately flew up in the air, missing the first bludger he tried to hit.

 

[Ivelisse Burleigh]

Ive hopped onto her broom and started her search.

 

[Liusaidh Styx]

Liusaidh grabbed the ball and started heading towards the hoops.

 

[Seamus Reid]

Seamus was very glad when he managed to hit a bludger and sent it directly towards the seeker.

@Ivelisse Burleigh

 

[Ivelisse Burleigh]

Ive grimaced when she got hit almost straight away but kept searching like she was supposed to.

 

[Liusaidh Styx]

As soon as Liusaidh was close to the hoops and threw the ball, very pleased when it went though the hoops.

 

[Seamus Reid]

Seamus didn't manage to hit the bludger, missing entirely.

 

[Indira Khatri]

Indi had made an effort to stay right behind Liusaidh and was able to catch the quaffle as it was tossed back into the game. She was eager to get some good practice in before their game.

 

[Ivelisse Burleigh]

Ive continued her search.

 

[Indira Khatri]

It didn't take long for Indi to make a lap around the pitch and approach the hoops again. Once she was close enough she made her shot and cheered as it went through.

 

[Ivelisse Burleigh]

Ive looked for the snitch.

 

[Celia Vuong]

Celia was not feeling particularly optimistic about the Slytherin team's chances in the championship match, not when half their starters sucked. They had a seeker who could barely seek, a beater who had taken out their own captain, and two captains who were too powerless (or spineless?) to do anything about it. She suspected that the only reason they had won their last game was because Gryffindor was even more incompetent. But — as much as it pained Celia to admit it — they couldn't expect Hufflepuff to display the same level of incompetency, not after they'd taken out the Ravenclaw seeker and caught the snitch in ten minutes flat.

If the captains were unwilling to do anything about the lineup, then all Celia could do was focus on improving her own skills. It wasn't fair that she would have to basically carry the team during the next game, but she had long since learned that life wasn't fair. Besides, she had to admit that sometimes she preferred individual glory, and it was so much easier to stand out when all your teammates were terrible in comparison . With this goal in mind, Celia took off in search of a bludger, smirking when Ivelisse wasted no time getting hit.

 

[Indira Khatri]

Indi didn't see any of the other chasers around so she took advantage of the situation and grabbed the quaffle again.

 

[Celia Vuong]

Celia flew up to meet one of the bludgers, striking it head-on towards her favorite target. The ball just barely missed Ivelisse, which was disappointing, but practice had only just started and Celia knew it was only a matter of time before she knocked the seeker out.

 

[Ivelisse Burleigh]

Ive didn’t miss the bludger sailing right past her but couldn’t be bothered to glance back and see who had had it eiher. It didn’t matter anyways, being a target was part of the job and she’d just have to take it. Even when one of the beaters had a personal vendetta against her.

 

[Indira Khatri]

Indi dodged around her teammates as she made her way to the hoops again. As she got closer she decided to mix things up and faked going right before throwing the quaffle through the middle hoop. She watched as it easily sailed through the hoop.

 

[Liusaidh Styx]

Liusaidh grabbed the ball as it was thrown back out into play.

 

[Seamus Reid]

Seamus failed to hit the bludger he was aiming for, he had to be better.

 

[Ivelisse Burleigh]

Ive kept searching.

 

[Celia Vuong]

Celia smashed another bludger towards Ivelisse, but it careened away and into @Seamus Reid. Celia frowned. Why couldn't it have hit Ares instead?

 

[Liusaidh Styx]

Liusaidh was not surprised to get to the hoops and score with ease.

 

[Seamus Reid]

Seamus had been about to go for a bludger when he himself was hit by one. He groaned and glanced at who sent it. Of course it had been Celia.

 

[Ivelisse Burleigh]

Ivelisse moved to fly a bit higher in order to get a better view of the pitch.

 

[Celia Vuong]

Celia decided to follow the bludger Seamus had been aiming for. She chased it down the pitch until she had a clear shot on @Ivelisse Burleigh. The ball arced through the air and straight into the seeker. Celia grinned and gave her bat a twirl before setting off in search of the other bludger.
