Once more, Slytherin took possession of the Quaffle. "I's Hudson, Turner, back ter Hudson, BACK to Turner, who dodges th' still-bleeding Greingoth.. Castell attempts to block but the Quaffle is passed to Odessa a' the last second." Hopefully another headbutt wasn't about to happen... "Odessa takes i' inter the scoring area. He shoots, he's blocked by Ashby!" The Ravenclaw fans cheered their approval, but something else caught Ali's attention.
Stone and Montmorency were in a dive. Alli squinted, but saw no sign of the elusive Snitch. "We may be seein' a Wronski Feint by Stone, as there's no sign o'... Wait! The Seekers HAVE spotted th' Snitch! Stone blocks Montmorency, who undercuts Stone and takes the lead. Montmorency reaches out, Stone mirrors him but fumbles... DYLAN MONTMORENCY HAS CAUGHT THE SNITCH!" The Slytherin fans went wild. "Slytherin wins 140 to 135!" He shook his head. He couldn't believe it. "Wha' a comeback by the Snakes!"
His job completed, he gave the microphone a tap to turn it off. He was definitely going to need a lie down after that. He was EXHAUSTED.

Christmas jumped up and down as Slytherin had just tied on the amount of snitch captures and shouted "Yes that is the way to do it Slytherin"

It wasn't the MOST unbiased thing in the world, but when Dylan caught that snitch Selina threw her fist up in the air and shouted, "Yes! AND SLYTHERIN WINS!" Okay, sue her. She was rooting for Slytherin. And they had won, which was AMAZING. The redhead did feel slightly bad for Mo because that kid was a really nice person on top of his nice hair, but her best friend was on that other team... and they had won.
UGH, SO EPIC.
She turned to Alice with a smile on her face and hugged her tightly, "They did it!" Now she could wave those pom poms all she liked because Slytherin had won the game- Selina was giving Alice permission now. After she hugged her of course. Ugh, this was so exciting and she was so happy for them. And selfishly it made their loss to Ravenclaw a little more bearable because now she knew that this term was still anyone's game.
Although, they had both played ABSOLUTELY brilliantly. The game was so unbelievably close and Ravenclaw had played so well. They were a strong team, she was not stupid, she knew that. In fact, they were an excellent team.
So yay for both teams. But yeah, Slytherin won.

She just kinda stared at the pitch as the last snitch of the game was caught by the snake seeker. Her face had fallen by now and she was ready to either break something or scream, neither of which she could do right now so she just kept staring. Really she didn't care about either teams but of the two teams she cared nothing about she cared far less for the Snakes. Scowl
There was a reason she shouldn't have come to this match and she was finding out now. It would only serve to annoy her. "I'll see you back at the castle, Cassia." Yeah, she wasn't going to stay much longer. This was...this was whatever and she was over it so the young Gryffindor made her way out of the stands and headed back for the castle.
She needed a chocolate frog.

But when Dylan caught the last Snitch, she kind of hurled her pompoms in the air- they probably hit some random kid. "YOU GO, DADDY DYL!" Which was good. That meant everyone had won a game now. Except them, but she didn't want to think about that. It was unnecessary. "Ravenclaw was good," she informed the world. But Dylan was awesome. Yes. Alice hugged the Head Girl back tightly as she stared down on the Pitch. "We should tell Dylan how awesome he and his team are later." And Selina wouldn't kick him, either, because he was a WINNER today and stuff.

As much as Asher loved playing quidditch he also loved watching it. He was totally not braise this match. His bro was the hufflepuff seeker, he had to cheer for him. Then there was Bliss, he had to cheer for her and Ella.Yes?
Call him a little bitter still, over the Hufflepuffs beating them, but he still loved his hufflepuffs. But he was cheering more for Gryffindor. They did the same for them when they played Ravenclaw last match. Yes, he heard them.
He finally found a seat, he'd probably sit with his team or Anya or maybe Adeline her house was playing today that was a good reason for her t be there ....... or his sister? He rubbed his eyes "Carolineeee?" Caroline had heard that her little brother was quite the beater, she hasn't seen this yet. She should have came with their father last match and seen this. Her father proudly filled her in on the game stats and details.
Even though Slytherin wasn't in the match today, she thought it would be nice to stop by and see her brother. If she knew him he'd be there watching. Plus there was still a ickle of hers from her school days Selina, was a seventh year and Head Girl, where had the time gone, really?
She walked up into the stands looking around for a place to sit. Hearing her name she turned and seen "Asherrrr!" She walked faster over to him and hugged him.
*cough, cough* "Caroline you're squishing me" And its kind of embarrassing.

| Dalliesa | Ab-Bot | Hogwarts Trojan War | Botros took his time walking down from his office to the Quidditch Pitch, it was the first match he was allowed to watch this term since his arm and leg were significantly better, he no longer had to limp or wince. He wore both house's colors today, and probably looked like an enlarged child with a slightly hunched over back and cane. But Botros didn't mind, he made sure Feo was occupied with his toys in his office and made his way up to the stands, using the benches for support whenever he needed it.
The professor knew from experience that the front few rows were not the best for a man his age, so he climbed higher and plopped down on the seats somewhere in the middle. He had the goggles dangling from his coat's pocket for when the game started and the cold breeze hurt his eyes.
He had a Hufflepuff cardigan and hat on, a Gryffindor tie and scarf. He knew better than to make a sign, that would be too much for him today. He took a bag of nuts out from the inside pocket of his coat and laid the cane across his lap. He was ready for the game to start! |

| Destiny Super Slytherin Buddy - ⅓ She-Snake Trio || EVIL Healer
The one thing about working at Hogwarts that Healer Tillstorm seriously disliked was quidditch. The only thing that ever resulted from these matches was a waiting room full of big babies players who didn't know how to stay on their brooms or how to dodge a bludger. The slightest little bump or bruise and the big babies were coming to her to fix them up. Here she was though, entering the stands of the quidditch pitch for what was to be yet another show of just how weak the students of Hogwarts had really become.
So why was she here if she hated the sport so much? Because it was better to deal with the little wimps injuries on the pitch than it was to have her waiting room filled with all the students who thought they were going to die from a simple bruise.
Heading towards the bottom of the stands she turned back to Vanora. "This looks like a good place to sit." Close to the entrance in case she wanted to make a quick escape pitch so she could get there quick if someone got a real injury, not just a little bump or bruise.

It was one of two things that could get Vanora out of her hut on a cold day, and on this particular cold and Quidditch of a day, she was out. It didn't help that Cece had practically threatened her to make her join her in the stands, but Vanora wasn't much of a complainer, so she didn't mind at all. Besides, in her two years that she had been working at Hogwarts, this would be the first match she would be in the actual stands for.
And since this was her first Quidditch match, she had decided to make the most out of it. Which would have been easier for her, if it wasn't for Cece being such a dark rain cloud.
Vanora took a seat next to her friend as she decided on the seats, which she couldn't help but notice were extra close to the exit, and once she was situated and comfortable enough, she gave her a gentle, but well deserved elbowing. "Sometimes I think you went into the wrong line of work."

| Arts TRANSPONSTER! Sophie made her way to the stands by herself again. She wasn't carrying a big Hufflepuff flag or anything, but she had er house scarf on, so there you go!
The badger half smiled when she noticed professor Botros there and sat relatively close to him. She also saw Healer Tillstorm and professor Newlin. Cool. Many members of the staff there today to watch the match.
She wasn't in her best mood again - how ironic, she wasn't in a good mood during the other match either - but her many of her friends were playing, including her best friend and boyfriend. So she kind of had to go. Besides, it was nice watching Hufflepuff play. They were a very good team indeed.

| Drop offff Kimothée Chalamet • The UWU Agenda • Once Baby, Now Trouble • All Growed Up Kat was at the Stands, getting ready to see the Hufflepuff vs. Gryffindor match. She had no team in mind, to be honest. She was just here for the fun of it all. Maybe she was just here to cheer for her friends, for the ones that were playing if they did something awesome on the pitch, no? She could cheer for Penelope, Alice, Melanie, and her pseudosister Alexa. For the puffs, she only had Nessie, Ella, and Alec to cheer for as she didn't know all of the Puffs. Least she would be here for a reason right? It would be strange if she was there for no reason at all. Talk about awkward.
The Slytherin found a seat at the Stands. She waited for someone. Anyone. Whoever wanted to show up and talk to her before the match started. Whoever was going to commentate better be good. The last match, it was the Groundskeeper. It was refreshing and new to see a staff member (maybe) commentate, and not a student that time. Maybe it was... someone else? Kat was good with whatever.
So... can it start now, YES?

| MO! a bit. ^_^ Satisfied Neon Aidan came to the stands conflicted of who to cheer for. On one hand - or team - Alice and Lex were his friends, but on the other hand, maybe if he cheered for Hufflepuff, Lotus would like him better? They did decide to turn a leaf, and he didn't want to start out on the wrong foot by cheering against her. And then, on the totally selfish side of things, if Hufflepuff won, they'd be knocked off the top spot in the Quidditch leaderboard, but Gryffindor wasn't a threat in that respect. Sigh.
Would anyone hold it against him if he stayed neutral? It wasn't like he was sporting any team's colors, anyway.
The boy plunked himself down in what he hoped to be a neutral cheering zone, but kinda near Mo just to be near someone familiar.

With a SMIRK firmly in place, Dylan made his way to the stands. He'd gotten the owl last night about a last minute change. Apparently there was no one available to announce...and because it had become such a fun and interesting part of the matches these days, Dylan was filling in.
He was totally stoked.
Taking his place in front of the microphone, the Slytherin BEAMED. Merlin, this was going to be fun.
... tap tap... "Testing.".... tap tap...
Blink. Was that how he normally sounded?...Dylan hadn't realized his voice was so....smooth and attractive. SMIRK. No wonder people liked to just hear him talk. Merlin...Clearing his throat and shaking off vain thoughts, he looked down at the pitch, seeing Professor James getting ready. Seems like they were about to start.
Surveying the crowd, he felt some nerves before deciding just to dive in. "Hello and welcome to the fourth Quidditch match of the year...and it's sure to be intense! The FIERCE LIONS are facing off with the adorably RABID BADGERS."
Smirk. "Are you all READY?!" He aimed the comment towards the crowd. Were they ready?! WERE THEY?!

| Sohpie and Aidan a bit too ^.^ Dalliesa | Ab-Bot | Hogwarts Trojan War | Ab was popping peanuts into his mouth when he noticed the Hufflepuff miss Charms smiling up at him and then solemnly sitting down somewhat far away. He waved to her and went back to watching the beautiful piece of earthly grass stretched before him. Quote:

He climbed the bleachers and was quite excited to see Ab-Bot seated by himself up higher. Mo plunked down near the professor with a grin. "Hey, Professor Botros. How's Feo? How are you? Do you like Quidditch? Who are you cheering for today? Are you cold? It's pretty chilly today." A companion! Botros grinned back at the kid, but unlike the young grin, his was wrinkly and didn't affect his eyes as much. "Hello Ma-- He's-- I'm-- Yea-- Ever-- No--" Laughing the old man extended his small bag of nuts to the youngster. He lost track of which question he should answer first, Marco was obviously feeling overly caring today. "I do like Quidditch! I used to play for my house back when I was in my fifth year." He didn't remember which position though... his eyes squinted for a second, "I think I played all positions except Keeper. I miss being on a broom again." He continued to smile broadly at the memory and the big empty Pitch.
Another Ravenclaw boy sat down close by, Botros recognized him from his class but the name slipped his mind. Quote:

Botros nudged Marco excitedly, "It's starting. Let's get cheering." He set the bag of nuts between the two of them and worked on his dull wooden cane, with one wave of the wand a bunch of mixed flags erupted at one end of it. He beamed proudly and started waving it in the air, he can't shout and cheer with his voice but his third leg would do! |

Yep, yep... "Oh snap! And both teams zoom onto the pitch...." Dylan smirked. "...and they both have a redhead...So, they've got my attention." Just saying...He loved him some red hair.
SMIRK...OH! Professor Botros. Leaning back from the mic, he gave the older man a beaming grin. "Hey Professor!" Dylan idolized him and it was kinda hilarious.
Anyway, back to the match! "AHEM! Quaffle is UP!.......and Dixon is immediately showing her crazy...BE CAREFUL ALEXA!..." Dylan might not have been talking to Cambridge anymore but he didn't want to see her hurt. THERE WOULD BE WORDS LATER...if she did. "The Hufflepuff passing game seems strong today as they shift the scarlet ball between them!...and they SCORE!" Was that a bitter note in his tone? Yes. Just a little...
Blasted Hufflepuffs and their teamwork! "The quaffle is put back into play.....Merlin, these badgers are all over the Gryffindors." It was true. They were. "Cambridge and Goldman successfully carry it back down towards Ellaphant." PROUD BEAM. "I mean...Bishop. Ahem...but she puts an immediate stopper on their scoring dreams. NO SCORE...and magnificent save by my Ella." Yes, he was a fan of Ella. As for the others...No. Just no.

It's alright, although I feel bad about trying to hurt people on purpose sometimes. I probably need to get trained on being a temporary sociopath or something," Mo happily accepted peanuts from the professor like it was No Big Deal. NBD, Ab-Bot. They were best mates, practically. "But I like Quidditch. I like how it feels to fly, even when I'm flying badly. And I like being part of a team."
He liked all the parts of Quidditch except that SOMEONE had to lose.
Suddenly, Mo was on his feet, waving his red scarf around like it was a pom-pom. Quaffle was up in the air, and he watched the Hufflepuffs make runs on the Gryffindor goal posts. Wait... was that the snitch?

"Cambridge and Goldman successfully carry it back down towards Ellaphant." PROUD BEAM. "I mean...Bishop. Ahem...but she puts an immediate stopper on their scoring dreams. NO SCORE...and magnificent save by my Ella." Yes, he was a fan of Ella. As for the others...No. Just no.
.........."COME ON, KELLER!!" Red heads? The SLytherin boy loved red heads? Ab couldn't help but be amused by that unnecessary discovery. He moved his attention to his the captain and gave him a wave with his cane. "Try not to be too flirty!" He wanted to sound professor-y but he was grinning too much to sound anything but pumped.
With his eyes back on the Pitch, Botros continued to wave his cane around and trying to catch up to who's who. Pinky girl, the boy who ruffled his hair too much, the loud lioness, Captain Alice, Gunter, and most of the others too! CANE!WIGGLE. Quote:

"But I like Quidditch. I like how it feels to fly, even when I'm flying badly. And I like being part of a team."
He liked all the parts of Quidditch except that SOMEONE had to lose.
Suddenly, Mo was on his feet, waving his red scarf around like it was a pom-pom. Quaffle was up in the air, and he watched the Hufflepuffs make runs on the Gryffindor goal posts. Wait... was that the snitch? A Beater, ooh, yeah. Ab knew the feeling. "I felt exactly the same but it's a game, you know. I always made sure to hug whoever I hit during the game." It usually made him a target of being punched and shoved but Botros did it anyways. He widened his eyes in temporary alert at the sociopath word, the boy was just kidding... right? Right.
Again, Ab nodded along with Marco. "Yes, I still wish I could be back on a broom again. Unfortunately my Healer wouldn't allow it--" Wait, everyone went silent and Ab struggled to his feet leaning on Marco's shoulder when the snitch was spotted in the air. |

Dylan was full out GLARING at the pitch. What.....was this?! "KELLER........" He was grumping. It was simply because he wanted Gryffindor to win. Alice deserved this... "Hufflepuffs get past Jake Keller...Yarborough, more specifically." SNORT. Troublesome Badgers. Always in the way......HMPH. "...and Gryffindor gets the "scarlet ball of joy" as I call it. They start hauling tail back down to my Ellaphant and it's a NO GO. Bishop blocks it again." Yes, he was impressed. The Slytherin hadn't realized how FIERCE the blonde was. New eyes for her, obviously. "And the bludgers...SKYLAR!...GUNTER!" Lots of STARING for you two! "The beaters obviously not playing nice today..." His seeker instinct was immediately drawn away as he, himself, glimpsed something golden darting around the pitch. Had Summers and Penelope seen it? Merlin, he wasn't trying to help. Oh, wait. THEY SEEN IT. "OH SNAP! They're spotted the snitch!" Delayed reaction! "It's a fierce battle as the two...SUMMERS!" Dylan was glaring. He'd just rammed Penelope! "BE CAREFUL WITH PENELOPE!" His protective habits were coming to the forefront as he watched the intense chase! "It's too close to call. Summers is reaching for it....No, no...Penelope is reaching for it........HOLY MERLIN! PENELOPE GREENWALL CAUGHT IT!"
Someone had actually caught it before Alec Summers. Dylan was stunned.........and proud. Obviously. He'd need to buy her something...if they managed to win. "WHOOP! Gryffindor snag the first snitch...and Hufflepuffs score." It was said as an afterthought. Snitch stuff was more exciting!
Also....sheepish look for Professor Botros. Leaning back from the mic, he gave an apologetic look. "Sorry, Professor...I'm honest about what I like." BEAM.

Feeling his heart STILL racing from the miraculous snitch capture, he turned and looked to all the fans in the stands. "That was spectacular, was it not?! ARE YOU GUYS PUMPED?!" Cheering. It was almost deafening.
Dylan turned his attention back on the game, watching the action with amused eyes...but his amusement was short lived. "Alyssa Potter smacks the bludger right at my best mate............" There was some menace in his tone. Was she stupid?! "Potter! WATCH IT!."
Too busy glaring Potter down for the abuse of his best mate, Dylan missed the next two plays...The score for Hufflepuff...and the block...but the snitch popping up to his left had him focusing once more...AND THEY WERE RACING TOWARDS HIM.........."They've seen it...The snitch....!!!" He wasn't ducking out of the way.....He'd played Chicken before...Not scaring easily and all that. BRING IT!
...but the snitch was soaring away and both Summers and Penelope were right behind it! Whew. "AND THEY'RE OFF. It a battle for the little golden ball as Summers and Greenwell face off....It's intense...and Penelope better not get rammed." EYES FOR YOU, ALEC. "............" He was squinting, trying to make out the action as it moved further away from him. "DID SHE?!.............YES, YES, YES! PENELOPE Greenwell catches the second snitch of the match." AHEM. "Apologies, Summers..."
AND..."WOOT! GO KELLER! PARTY AFTER THE MATCH, MATE!" Bam. They'd need to celebrate that fantastic save...
AHEM. "THIS GAME IS INTENSE!"...Also..."Gryffindor get possession of the quaffle! They are clearly jazzed from that fantastic action via Greenwall and Keller....I almost want to recruit them for my team. Lions SCORE!"......Was he kidding? Wasn't he? Well, no one knew....and Dylan wasn't telling. "OH SNAP. Hufflepuffs are coming back with vengeance, though. Wisteria and Potter get the next combo...Quaffle and bludger...WHO'D IT HIT?!"

The match. Though Cassia had been busy all day with shifty stuff which she and Blue were working on, she made sure to head to the stands. She might have been late a bit but she had to go because LEX! And the lioness wouldn't be thrilled if Cassia didn't go. Actually, the snake herself would feel guilty. So to the stands she sprinted.
And the captain's voice welcomed her as she got to the stands.
Sounded that both teams were doing well. Let the best win she was here because she should.
Oh look, Professor Botros. The snake stepped closer to the old man and grinned at him. "Hi Professor," She said cheerfully as she hoped next to where he sat. it was pretty cool that the old professor came all the way. How did he climb his way up here. Slowly with no doubt. "Are you enjoying the match?" she had no idea how one would enjoy a match but people ask that all the time.
And Mo was chatting with Botros too, "Hey Mo," She said to the claw seated next to the Runes man. "No costume today," She said with a grin.
Glancing at the field as brooms, quaffles, and other flying things crashed. She couldn't recognize Lex of course but she was supporting by looking. And she would have cheered loudly and stuff but she was next to the old man and he'd probably get annoyed by the high-pitch sound she'd cause. She didn't want to be responsible for the old man's loss of hearing. She had already noted a problem in that department.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Sarah Edwards

| Gryffinclaw-Ravendor • The REAL Hermione Granger There was her Sarah... her little Sarah all grown up! Rebecca Edwards was so proud of her daughter. Her daughter who was not a natural in sports yet after all the practicing she was on the team. And that Rebecca extra proud... she was pride of her daughter in all areas yet academics came easily to Sarah yet when Sarah had to work hard for something it only made Rebecca prouder. When Sarah made the team she was excited yet told hermother not to get her hopes up as she was probably only going to be in the reserves... Sarah never played the first game as she missed practices due to illness. Yet now she was on. Sarah had given her a T shirt for the game so she donned it over. Sarah had made many shots at the goal, all the time the keeper stopped it.
Then SARAH scored!! That got Rebecca to her feet. "Well Done Sarah! That is MY girl" she cheered doing a bit of a jig. She knew her of age sons would have made a bigger outcry yet Sarah had requested that none of her older brothers would come as if she would not do well they would tease her forever more. Maybe Sarah was right yet she had asked her mother to come and Rebecca was unintentionally embarressing her daughter.

| Zombie Apocalypse Team Leader ★ ★ in a crown of pepperoni and artisan cheese "Wait guys! ANOTHER SNITCH HAS BEEN SPOTTED!" Forgetting about the goal just scored and bludger hit at Christmas Goldman..."That shiny little bugger!"
The Slytherin Captain watched with bated breath as the power struggle ensued! "Summers seems to be frustrated with his lack-luster performance thus far...." It was said with a bit of a tone...but it was true. This was nothing like the Summers he'd seen in other games. "OH WAIT!..................SUMMERS CATCHES IT." No, he wasn't cheering about it. Moving on...
.............."Hufflepuff seems to be picking it back up again..." There was some enthusiasm in his tone...but it was terribly forced. "The Badgers teamwork is being put on display again...as the pass the quaffle back down the pitch...Keller is powerless against this female (plus Yarborough) offense. PUFFS SCORE. They are doing great."
Wait...was that the snitch.........AGAIN?!

Hogwarts RPG Name: Stuart Kynaston Ravenclaw Sixth Year Hogwarts RPG Name: Rome Keller Drechsler Gryffindor First Year | Post... just because Anya was here IC. XD Sardine VIP || Shark Attack! || D A R T E R || Captain Oblivious Anya was nearly gnawing of her lip in anticipation. This game was... intense. And close. And Penne Gryffindor was winning.
... and she was sitting there in a red shirt sporting the name KELLER on it. And she had her hair in pigtails with scarlet and gold ribbons in her hair.
Apparently she was feeling overly supportive today.
And maybe it was a good thing. Jake was up there playing keeper, something he'd never done before. And... ... she had a whole slew of 'he's a keeper' jokes that she was excited to use later.
Eeep. ... ... that looked like it hurt. Hopefully Jake was okay. .......andddd apparently he was because that was a really good save. (And she wasn't just saying that.)
And what was with Dylan today? He was being very... Keller supportive too. Maybe next time Anya should make a shirt for him like she did for Ryan.

| been here aaaaaaaaaaall along... astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf QUUUUUUUUIDDITCH! Sweet solstice did this bring him back to his Hogwarts days. It had been unfortunate that Quidditch wasn't one of the school activities he was allowed to participate in. He was a fairly good flyer.
Sitting in the stands, Airey found that from the moment the first whistle blew that this was going to be the sort of match that was going to be impossible to sit through. Gryffindor WAS playing after all. "GO GO GRYFFINDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR!" the well dressed man shouted after casting a Sonorus Charm on himself. "I'm expecting you to live up to that nickname of yours, Miss Skylar!" Scary bat girl, right? "Be the better finder flyer Miss Greenwell!" Jump jump clap clap jump jump clap clap! "Mr. Keller! STOP THOSE QUAFFLES for Merlin's sake!!!" ********************** Kurumi had been unusually quiet as she watched the match. She hadn't even been sure she would attend because of the fight her and Selina had had and ... well...Hufflepuff and what memories the house brought back. She was in a delicate phase right now - one that she was sick of - and she didn't want to do anything that would set herself off or make things worse.
Despite heavy emotions telling her NOT to be here...here she was. Unusually cookieless, but still here and with her fingers laced together and held in front of her face while she murmured her cheers.
