Title: Quidditch
Description: a bit of fun
Sardine - March 25, 2008 10:10 AM (GMT)
I'm bored, so I thought I'd start this and see what response I get.
This is for a bit of fun on the field, as well as for people who are new to Quidditch and want some help/training. We can also learn new moves, techiniques, formation flying etc. It can be like a Quidditch Camp :) And it's for newbies and oldies.
Sardine
Sardine stepped out of the tunnel leading to the stands, The bright light hit her face, causing her to flinch and shield her eyes with her hand. Pulling out her sunglasses, she puts them on and makes her way to a seat at the front of the stand facing the main entrance to the Quidditch Pitch. She relaxes and closes her eyes, her Firebolt across her lap, and waits for some people to come.

After over-hearing some firsties discussion last night, she decided to go and check out this quidtich training or camp that is being held today. After getting ready, she walked out of her dorm and down to the quidtich field. With her firebolt in her hands, which she would now and then twirl back to the other hand, she was dressed and ready to play. Her hair was a dirty blonde color and pulled back into a french braid while she wore a black tank and blue shorts. "Hey! What's up?" she called over to Sardine, who was sitting on the benches.

Sardine
I open my eyes at the sound of someone's voice. Grinning, I sit up properly. "Hey," I say to Emma. "Just bored hey. Thought a bit of Quidditch training might help. I haven't discussed it with Rouge, but it should be ok," I wink. "Have we officially met?" I put my Firebolt on the bench and stand.
Emma Potter - March 25, 2008 08:17 PM (GMT)
Emma smiled when he mentioned the quidtich training.."Oh I'm sure Rogue will be fine with it." she said before added, "Plus, it never hurts to have more people learn how to play." Switching her firebolt from her right hand to her left, she put out her right hand to shake hands with Sardine. "No I don't think we have officialy met. I think it was just kind of a bump into in the halls." Emma said with a welcoming smile. "I'm Emma. The 4th year Ravenclaw Prefect, and Quidtich captain. And cheerleading captain.." she said, mumbling the last part with a roll of the eyes. "The list can go on..." she added, jokingly

OOC: I'm a girl :P
Sardine
I smile, shaking Emily's hand. Which isn't the easiest task when one is wearing Quidditch gloves. "Sardine de Fesche. 5th Year Hufflepuff, Beater on the Hufflepuff Quidditch team, Head of Fanfiction, and," I frown. "I found the #1 easter egg," I add randomly and laugh slightly.
"Yeah, Reg should be good with it. If I do organise trips I'll run it by him of course, but a bit of training never hurt anyone. Well, hopefully it won't hurt anyone," I add.
"I'm going to wait to see if a few more people turn up, then we can take to the air. You can go now if you want," I add. "The pitch is yours," I grin.
Emma Potter - March 25, 2008 08:38 PM (GMT)
OOC: I knew that..I forgot to put the "s" in front, oh well, just be happy I didnt mix up your name. I use to do that all the time. LOL
BIC: Emma shook the gloved hand. After they released their hands, she reached into her back pocket on her shorts, and pulled out quidtich gloves. "I hate wearing them, so I always take them off every chance I get." she said before putting them back in her pocket. She then glanced up in the air, when Sardine mentioned the pitch was hers. "As tempting as that sounds.." she said with a little laugh.."I actually would prefer to stay down and chill and talk." she said before hastily adding, "If you dont mind."
Sardine - March 25, 2008 08:46 PM (GMT)
OOC: :P
Sardine
"I know it sucks wearing them, but I figured 'I'm gonna have to get used to them, so I may as well leave them on and get it over and done with'," I sit down again, moving up a little so Emma can sit. "I don't mind, no. Afraid of flying, or just new to it?" I enquire casually.
Miu - March 25, 2008 09:23 PM (GMT)
Miu appeared with her hair in a simple pontail and her eyes colored with a shade of green. By some miracle she had been names Hufflepuff Keeper, and it had been such a relief. She had never been the best on a broom, but she had always been decent when she didn't have to go from one side of the pitch to the opponents hoop. And really, she wasn't a half bad keeper. She just, hadn't practiced yet. Broom practice, of coarse, just not keep away. "Hey!" Miu allowed herself to call out as she eyed the rickety old broom in her hands. When she remembered, maybe she'd get a new one. Something better.
Sardine - March 25, 2008 09:28 PM (GMT)
Sardine
"Hello, hello," I say cheerfully upon seeing Miu. "Good to see you here," I smile. Noticing Miu looking at the broom in her hands, I look as well. "Better than nothing. And, you're Keeper, so you don't really need a top-end broom," I shrug. "Got your gear with you?" I ask, moving up some more to make space.
Emma Potter - April 13, 2008 11:57 PM (GMT)
Emma began to laugh when Sardine asked if she was new or afraid of flying. "Neither!" she said with a grin, "I wanted to practice, but you had the pitch booked, so I decided I might as well come down and get some flying in.", quickly she then added.."Hopefully you dont mind."
Sardine - April 15, 2008 05:54 PM (GMT)
Sardine
I nod at Emma's answer. "Uh-huh," I grin. "Then why would you prefer to sit and chat, hmmm?" I ask, a strange, mischevious glint in my eye and an odd smile on my face. "And no, I don't mind." :)
Emma Potter - April 16, 2008 03:18 AM (GMT)
Emma smiled at Sardine's question. This girl was very clever. "How were you not sorted into Ravenclaw?" she asked jokingly, before responding to the question. "Well since not many people are here, I decided I really dont want to be flying by myself, and leave you all alone down here." she said with a grin.
Sardine - April 16, 2008 06:07 PM (GMT)
Sardine
"I was too smart for the Sorting Hat and tricked it into putting me in Hufflepuff," I joke. "Well, I think I;m going to fly around for a bit," I stand and poke Miu to see if she's alive. I shrug and mount my broom.
Emma Potter - April 16, 2008 11:54 PM (GMT)
Jumping up, Emma mounted her broom and watched as Sardine poked Miu. "She'll probably join us soon." she said, trying to figure out if Miu was sleeping or in La-La land. Kicking off the ground, she soared through the air and did several laps around the field, twisting and turning. Finally, she went throuh the middle hoop and looped around it several times, enjoying the feeling of being upside down.

Chase was there. How the hell did he do that!?! He had his beaters club and there was a bludger coming at him, which he hit at Emma. Not to hit her, just to get it away from him and make his presence known. The bludger went right past Emma's head before flying around on it's own.
Sardine - April 17, 2008 06:35 PM (GMT)
Sardine
I grin when I see Emily take to the sky. Forgetting about Miu ( :D ), I kick off from the stands and head towards the ground. I fly lazily a few feet above the grass, zig-zagging my way along. I see I Bludger out the corner of my eye. "Well hello!" I mutter to myself, looking around to see who hit the Bludger. I see Chase with a Beater's Bat and fly over to him, being sure to keep an eye out for the wandering Bludger.
"And who gave you permission to let a Bludger out, hmmm?" I ask as I reach Chase.
Emma Potter - April 18, 2008 01:36 AM (GMT)
Emma grinned as a bludger zoomed by. Turning around she saw Chase. Giving him a wave, she headed over to him, seeing some versus from Thriller outloud so he could hear. Eventually when she came over to him, she stopped. "What's up?" she asked.
5@v3 - April 18, 2008 04:17 PM (GMT)
Chase looked at Sardine as he adjusted himself on his cleansweep eleven. "I did." He said with a simple grin before looking at Emma. He smiled a bit less. "Beaters need to practice to you know!" He laughed only slightly before the bludger came back to him. He moved back on his broom slightly and hit it hard, letting it go through one of the closest hoops.
Sardine - April 19, 2008 02:29 PM (GMT)
Sardine
"Next time, please ask before letting a Bludger - or anything else - loose," I say to Chase. "And I know Beater's need to practice; I'm one afterall. That's the point of this; to get everyone to practice," I watch as Chase hits the Bludger again.
Emma Potter - April 20, 2008 08:17 PM (GMT)
Emma ducked as Chase swung his bat and hit the bludger in the direction of her head. After it was clearly past her, she turned around to see it go in one of the hoops. "Nice one." she said before hearing Sardine say she was a beater. "How long have you been playing?" she asked Sardine.
Sardine - April 21, 2008 05:04 PM (GMT)
Sardine
"Uh," I look up while thinking. "About 3 years. What position do you play?" I watch as the Bludger goes through the hoop and sets off around the field. I shake my head slightly before turning my attention back to Emma.
Emma Potter - April 21, 2008 11:48 PM (GMT)
"I play chaser." she said, and watched as the bludger came over towards them. Lining herself up, she caught it in her stomach area, and wrestled with it, while keeping balance on her broom. Eventually the bludger calmed down. Glancing up at the two beaters, she grinned and jokingly said.."Sorry. I just didnt think it was fair that the bludger was lose, but not the quaffles."
Sardine - April 22, 2008 04:58 PM (GMT)
Sardine
I turn around so I'm facing the place where I think the locker-rooms are. I pull out my wand and raise. "Accio Quaffle and Beater's bat!" I shout. A second or two later, the two objects come towards us. I catch the bat with ease, and just manage to get the Quaffle. "Here you go," I say throwing the Quaffle towards Emma, even though she has her hands full.
Emma Potter - April 23, 2008 12:15 AM (GMT)
"Sweet..thanks." she said, watching as Sardine got the quaffle. Then she threw it at Emma. "Agh.." she said quickly, switching the bludger to the other hand, having a hard time controlling it while catching the quaffle with the other. "Ok.." she said, trying to re-gain her balance before letting the bludger go.
Sardine - April 26, 2008 01:40 PM (GMT)
Sardine
I nod and look around the pitch. There was a slight breeze, making the large banners decorting the stands ripple. I notice Miu. "Hey Miu!" I shout as loudly as I can. "Get up here already! Sleeping won't help your Quidditch skills!"
