And he really meant it.

Max smiled big - of course Ellie wouldn't give up. She couldn't. He loved that about her and sat forward on his broom, looking as fierce and prepared and ready as ever to block her shot. He was impressed with her showmanship, wondering how often she dabbled in the position of Chaser and got to have the kind of fun it looked like she was having now - and when she sped right at the right hoop, he purposely moved toward it, fully expecting her to aim for another one.

And she did.

He tried to hesitate for a perfect amount of time that he could play it off as slow reflexes, but he did indeed surge up toward the center hoop, planning it well enough that the quaffle grazed his fingertips and soared through the hoop behind him without it looking entirely on purpose. He had put enough effort into it that he thought it was convincing and turned to wrinkle his nose at Ellie. He could play it off expertly. "Pffffffffft." He grinned and waved a dismissive hand back at her as he went to retrieve the quaffle to toss back to her and shouted over his shoulder, "Y'got lucky!"

...where she spotted two very familiar faces already facing off.

"Space for another 'Claw up there?" she shouted with a grin, though it looked liked Ellie was doing a pretty awesome job taking on Max alone.

A young woman nearby shouting if they had room for another Ravenclaw. Oh oh! She was a Ravenclaw too. "WANT TO GET YOUR BUTT KICKED BY A NEWB?" She shouted along, laughter in her voice.

HA! In your face, Maximus James, Mr. Professional-Appleby-Arrows-One-Of-The-Best-Keepers-In-The-League! HA! Ellie threw her head back and laughed as he went to catch the falling Quaffle. "There's no luck in Quidditch!" she shouted back at him.

She squeezed a few little broom tricks in while she waited on the Quaffle and as she did so, noticed the two joining them. She would've been disappointed that her and Max had to share the field, or that their turn at fun was over, if it wasn't for who was joining them.

Ravenclaws.

Ravenclaw friends. "Now it's an even match-up." Three Chasers against one Keeper. As it should be.
