Thankfully Annie managed to get the quaffle back before Gid could pass but she felt SOOOOOOO FREAKING BAD because she got it after he was hit from a bludger by Jazzy. She couldn't be mad at her friend but SOO MUCH GUILT.

Joel had nodded toward Ivy as she made a snark about her showing up, feeling a grin stretch across his own features. He knew she wasn't much for team sports, and it was evident in the fact that she had never tried out before. However, he was glad that she was trying to help out with the team, so he wasn't going to complain. When the team was called to attention, he nodded toward everyone and listened to instructions. He already knew what he was going to do, and handed off the playbook to Pru before he started on his laps. When he finished, he joined Axel and Gid in the air, following closely and sighing as he saw the battle for the quaffle. When Annie came away with the quaffle, he ducked in, hoping to steal from her.

Joel grinned as he got the quaffle and started back down the pitch. Honestly, it was a bit bad that he had the upper hand, but that was only because of experience. He focused on moving however, and watched for his teammates.

Dani patiently searched the air for the Snitch, hoping to get a bit of a jump on the other Seekers if she could. She was certain Ivy was gunning for her spot, and why not, since she was a competitor, and if Ivy performed better, she wouldn't blame Pru if she gave Ivy the position over her. Still, before she resigned herself to the possibility of being a Reserve again, she was giving it the best shot she could.

If this was what games were going to feel like Annie was sure all the heart thumping anticipation and thrill high she was feeling now would be nothing compared to the real thing. Although the spike of anger and disappointment when getting stolen from, that she could live without. Besides, the guy was older AND was VC. No need to get too pissy! That still didn't stop her from trying to steal from him.

Joel evaded Annie's attempt to steal and continued on, figuring he could give one of the others a chance to score. As he raced, he noticed Gid and decided he was newer, he should have a shot. He tossed it over, ready to steal it back if necessary.

Gid watched Annie steal, then Joel. Annie tried again to steal, but Joel held it. Yay for him! Wait... Joel passed, to him! Gid caught the ball, flying the last few feet to the goals. With all his strength, he threw at the hoops, biting his lip and hoping it went in. Oh, at least once, let him get a score! He watched in anticipation, waiting as sanely as possible.

spaceIvy might've been annoyed at herself for spotting the snitch so quickly, if it weren't for her ego getting the better of her. Obviously, she was just good at this. Detail oriented, could easily spot things that were out of the ordinary. That'd help her out big time when she was out of school and working as a Cursebreaker, she thought smugly. For now, though, she did her duty as Seeker and took off after the golden flash, eyes narrowed on it. She didn't want to lose the thing. Even if she didn't really want on the team, she had to prove to herself she could actually catch it now. Besides, she figured it'd be good for Joel to see that he really could count on her, and that if she did end up playing at some point, he wouldn't be sending in someone who'd fail at their duty to the team.

Arianna Davenport Gryffindor, Sixth Year
Arianna was a little slow on the jog around the pitch. Most of the players were halfway done with their laps in the air by the time she mounted up. The redhead shot around the pitch as quickly as she could wanting to join in the game with everyone else. She watched a few of the newcomers for the game doing a great job. Ari waited with bated breath as the new blonde boy made a decent shot against her own keeper. Hopefully, Dante could make the save.

Addie felt a twinge of guilt having missed protecting Gideon already but here was her chance to make things up. Aster aimed a bludger towards Joel and Addie zoomed forward hoping to protect her best friend and teammate. If she managed to get there in time she'd aim it straight back at the girl.

Chessie listened to Prudence as if her life depended on it. She was, to be fair, only a first year, so her chances of actually making the team were slim. Especially against the two other seeker candidates, both of whom were much larger and seemed much more experienced than she. Even so, Chessie had resolved to give it her best shot, and enjoyed the exertion regardless. The three laps weren’t that tough, though she had to strain a bit to keep up with the older kids. In muggle school, she’d run a decent mile. She took the last lap faster than the first two, finishing as strong as she could manage. Then it was time to make use of the borrowed broomstick. She mounted carefully, using the technique she’d practiced tirelessly. The flying laps proved considerably more difficult than the running. Chessie was uneasy and off balance, and the broom wasn’t much good either. It took quite a bit of effort, but when she finally did finish the laps, she felt a tiny bit less awkward in the air. She knew it would take her a while before she could fly confidently, and all she was hoping for today was not to fall off.
Nervously, she observed the older seeker, Dani. She seemed to know what she was doing, and so did Ivy. It wasn’t long at all before Ivy began flying quickly after something, and Chess could only assume it was the snitch. She searched the space in front of her as quickly as she could, but saw nothing. This was going to be more difficult than she was expecting. How was she going to have a chance to catch the snitch if she couldn’t even see it? Not inclined to give up, Chessie kept searching, keeping some attention on the broom that seemed to want to shudder toward the right hand side all the time. That was really annoying; hopefully someone could help her out with it later.

As Dani scoured the pitch for any hint of the tiny golden ball, Dani noted that while Chelsea had yet to make any sort of move, Ivy seemed to be in pursuit of something. She started to focus her search on the space in front of where the red-haired girl was going, hoping her luck might improve.

'Breathe,' Chessie told herself as she tried to keep calm. A lot was going on around her, but she knew she needed to keep focused on finding the snitch. From the way Ivy was chasing it, it seemed as though its movements were quite random and irregular. Her eyes weren’t trained for this; she was working on pure determination. It definitely wasn’t as easy as football, at least not so far. She kept on looking, gliding slowly this way and that to keep a decent view of Ivy’s field of vision. It had to be there somewhere.
The broom kept shuddering, and Chessie had only looked down for a second or two when she nearly ran in to Dani. The older girl looked so focused, and Chessie didn’t want to bother her, but she was rather concerned with her broom’s obnoxious behavior. She resisted the urge to ask for help and continued the search, trying to keep the bumping and veering to a minimum.

Eyeing Gid as he flew towards the goals with the Quaffle in hand, the boy readied himself to catch it with the best of his ability. He couldn't help but be reminded of all of the past times - well, past failures, that Dante experienced as a Keeper... and when he failed he apparently failed hard every time. This would be a new year. A new leaf, as people liked to say. With a steadying breath, Dante made his choice and flew to the goal he assumed would be the most likely to be targeted.
