 Iris [slytherin -chaser] Tiana [Gryffindor-chaser] Swedishfish Girl! ❄ Page-Turning Seamstress ❄ Jess's Soul Sister! Sweetest Swede!
Iris circled back to the center of the pitch to hover on her broom a few feet above ground as Professor Cloggs gave them new tryout instructions. They were all hunting winged crests, catching them, and putting them back in the right colored baskets. So they were all seekers now for this part of tryout? Was it every flier for themselves or were they supposed to team up to have a better chance at catching the crests, and making them stay in the baskets? She glanced over at Falcon to ask him to team up but there was no time.
The crests were released into the air and Iris picked one winged crest out of the mass, and began her hunt for it. She accelarated forward to be on it's tail, criss crossing up and down the pitch to catch up, circling around others fliers as she did so. She was just about to extend her hand, and grab the crest when it got an energy boost, and zoomed just out of reach.. "Ugh!" Iris huffed out in frustration. "Nope, I'm not letting you win over me." she muttered to herself as she zoomed after the crest again. This time Iris executed a perfect upside down descent as she grabbed the crest out of the air. Putting it under her arm and securing it there like she would a quaffle Iris straighted up on her broom before flying straight for the vivid teal basket and depositing her catch. Now could the crest stay there?
Tiana flew back to Professor Cloggs's ghostly figure to hear the new instructions for the next portion of the tryout. They were supposed to catch winged crests not pass quaffles, and score goals? Instructions recieved Tiana let them sink in for a few minutes watching how the winged crests moved in the air, looking for weaknesses. The crests seemed fast, playful and evasive. A challenge that Tiana was now ready to take on.
Spotting a crest hovering low to the ground with a damaged wing she quickly zoomed after it, concentrating fully, and leaning over the handle of her broom, Tee reached out, and grabbed the crest that only tried a little to break free. She then tucked the crest that had now turned bright orange close to her chest, holding it there with one arm as she steered her broom toward the right basket. Tossing the crest into the orange basket Tiana turned her broom around, ascending up into the air quickly to find herself a new winged crest to catch. She just knew that the next crest proably wouldn't be as easy to catch. From what she had seen, most crests put up a good fight, and were pretty playful.
