Kenny urged his broom faster, thinking that if he won this game, he was going to retire it. Definitely. It was getting a workout, and Kenny was just getting more and more frustrated. Hopefully he got there before Jess did and got the damn snitch!

He swore as he missed by a mile it felt like and narrowing his eyes at the arrogant blonde Puff, retrieved the quaffle and tossed it to Devonte. The kid better keep a hold of that thing this time... though Barbie was on a roll apparently.

Jess had caught it, and nearly fallen off her broom in the process, with a busted up knee and a broken arm. She descended from the air rapidly, clutching it in one clenched fist, too exhausted to scream about it. "Got you, you little f***er," she said wearily.

Dylan walked out onto the pitch, setting himself down on the bench and stretching his arms and legs out. He was almost positive he'd be the first here, and he was. That was intentional, though. Maybe if he showed up first the team would have good luck for the game. They'd be facing Hufflepuff today, who had won every game they'd been in so far, while on the other hand, his team had won no games at all. There was no chance they'd be winning the Quidditch Cup this year. He grabbed his water bottle, taking a few sips and running a hand through his hair. Thankfully it was a nice day today. He shifted his gaze to the empty field, and the almost empty stands.
He really hoped they wouldn't get destroyed as bad as Slytherin did. Well, Ravenclaw did have one thing going for them; all their chasers had at least some Quidditch experience.

spaceGypsy felt oddly serene as she stepped out onto the Quidditch Pitch, which was actually sort of odd. It wasn't that she didn't want to win, not by far; she desperately wanted to, because it would royally suck going out with no wins her very last year as captain. But, if her team lost this particular game, she wouldn't be heartbroken; it just meant that Jess had beat Lexine out for the snitch, and she supposed she was okay with that. The badgers had had a very good season this year, and she was honestly sort of proud of her best friend doing so well. Especially against Slytherin; not only had she beaten Kenny to the snitch, which was a feat in and of itself, she'd done so after getting absolutely pummeled by Kamenev. Gypsy sort of wondered if it was healthy to be so very very pleased with someone else's failure, but she sort of was. Not with Kenny's, not by a long shot. But having Jess, who had constantly beat herself up over the years over not being a good enough seeker, manage to steal that game from him, on top of the Hufflepuff chasers scoring three goals to Slytherin's none, well... it was pretty satisfying. If Jess caught the snitch this game, Hufflepuff would take the cup, no contest, and Gypsy was okay with that... Really, as long as Slytherin didn't win, she didn't care. Which, on that note, if Lexine did catch the snitch today, which was obviously the hope, it'd be on Ronna and Toby to keep Kamenev from taking out Julius before he could catch. Or, to at least keep the chasers on the Slytherin team from scoring. Gypsy knew all the numbers; she'd been rather obsessed with them, actually. Her last year, and she didn't care who got the cup... as long as it wasn't Slytherin. As long as it wasn't ******** Kamenev.
spaceGypsy offered Dylan a small wave and a smile pleased to see that he'd gotten there so early. Which reminded her of another reason she was in such a good mood; no Inigo. Xavier had agreed with her that kicking him was the best option, as sad a fact as that was. Elijah would be her partner for this game. Hopefully, the kid's apparent God given talent and/or luck would hold out. Hell, maybe without Inigo stressing her out, she might get a couple decent shots in. It could happen, right? Stranger things had certainly happened... or so she told herself. The Ravenclaw started stretching out, grinning at the third year."One more game this year,"she chirped. It was an odd contrast to her usual demeanor as captain. Well, it wasn't like she could push them any harder than she had at this point; after this game, she was done. No more practices, no more games. However they did on the pitch today, that was her last word as their captain. And she had confidence that they'd do well. Hopefully, it'd be well enough to score one win for the season."I'm sure you guys'll be fine. You all work really well together. Just... have fun, okay?"The metamorphmagus almost blinked in shock as soon as the words left her mouth. They were... oddly out of character for her usual competitive self. But... at this point, did it really matter? She wanted to win, sure, but... she'd rather at least have some fun. At least once.

spaceEcho wasn't too far behind his sister on the way to their last game for the year. Gypsy's last game period, he noted, with no small level of satisfaction. He'd joked with her a couple of times about how maybe she should go pro, to which she'd scoffed, because seriously, who the hell was going to recruit her or want her? He didn't think she really wanted to make a career out of Quidditch, anyway. Was honestly sort of surprised that she'd stuck it out ad stayed on the team, let alone captained it. She wasn't particularly good, and normally his sister could be trusted to give up on anything she sucked at. Or, well. Not give up necessarily, she did give it a decent try and make an effort to improve, but after a while if it wasn't for her, it wasn't for her, and she dropped it. She'd taken the role of captain very seriously, though, which he knew was the only reason she'd stuck it out this whole time. Actually, it was sort of weird to think that this was the last time they'd be playing together... there was something weirdly symbolic about it, especially given their respective positions on the team. This game, this year, was the last time his sister would be around to always have his back. She'd graduate, and then he'd have one more year of school, while she got out and started whatever life it was she decided to live. He knew she wasn't intending to go home; it still hurt her too much to even think about it. He was probably going to end up staying with her, wherever she ended up, over his last Summer, since he was still a minor until late July, but after his own graduation... He'd already decided he wanted to stay at the treehouse. His mum had loved that place, it'd been everything to her. Going home... felt like it might keep her close. His dad, too. Especially since, whatever changes he decided to make, he wasn't touching either her studio, or his dad's game room. Gypsy, though, wasn't having any of it. She wanted to be out and move on... which he assumed meant no more constant hovering and meddling in his life. He couldn't quite decide if he were happy or sad about that. The meddling was annoying, but he was sort of used to it, and honestly didn't know what he was going to do without it. But, he supposed he'd figure it out.

❝Timothy got to the field after finally managing to lose his sister who had been clinging to him to wish him a good last game. It wasn't the fact that she was wishing him luck that annoyed him, it was the comments about him not getting distracted by thinking of his new girlfriend. made him want to simultaneously smack her and hide away. But he couldn't so he resolved to smack her after the game. Seeing that it was mostly Ravenclaws at the pitch he waved to them all before putting down his broom to do a few helpful stretches himself. ❞

Lexine walked onto the pitch for the last game of the year. She had a pretty shite season this year around, and she felt really bad about it. It was some on the team's final year, and not winning whatsoever made her feel really bad... She really wasn't that great a seeker, especially not this year around... She waved to her other team members and began stretching out.
Cathy stepped onto the pitch with a big grin, and noted she was the first Puff on the field. Stretching some she stood on her tiptoes for a moment looking around. If Hufflepuff won this game they'd have the quidditch cup in the bag! It was great. And after the fact that not only Hufflepuff caught the snitch, but they scored three goals (two by herself), Cathy was feeling pretty great about this game and Hufflepuff's outlook.

Jess knew it was pure luck she'd caught the snitch last game. It could have been her or Kenny, and Kenny was the better seeker by far. But she wasn't bad, even if she doubted she'd be getting recruited to play professionally any time soon. She was decent, and she didn't know when to give up, and they were going to win this game just like they had the last. She waved at Gypsy and started on her stretches.

Elsie sincerely hoped this game was a short one, even if it meant a quick loss. The last game they'd played had been hell. Sure, they'd scored all the goals, but after all that back and forth.... Ugh. She joined the rest of her team, still hoping.

Xavier was oddly excited for this game. Mostly because this was his last game of quidditch, period. He wasn't returning to any pitch. He wasn't going to be a captain, vice captain, chaser, beater, none of that. Granted, he did the one thing he'd vowed never to do, but he had kind of enjoyed it. After today, that was it. Maybe he could give his Firebolt to someone else if they wanted it? Heck, Dylan might want it. He certainly didn't. Deciding to start stretching, he looked over as Gypsy was talking to Dylan. She was in a chipper mood, definitely an improvement from the last game."As long as you can keep the bludgers from beating our brains out, we'll be fine. Can't do worse than we have, so literally nothing we can do but go up."The brunette smiled a bit in spite of himself. Maybe it was the last game, and maybe they would lose, but right now, he was going to enjoy his last game, and hex anyone that suggested he enjoyed it.
