 ★✩ECHO ANGHARAD WELLBELOVEseventh year || Slytherin || halfblood
Daily Dragon managing editor || Quidditch seeker || Order of the Stick lancer
_______________
For a glorious moment, Echo felt like she could feel the displacement of air behind the snitch’s wing beats. And just like that, she closed her fist around the little golden ball. Echo felt a smug grin cross her face as she pulled her hand back and raised her arm triumphantly. ”Professor Liu!”
She turned anround and noticed the bludger flying towards Nora. “Dashwood, roll!”
s**t, why’d she warned her? No it was fine, the game was over. And the warning was probably too late. Damnit.
Echo hesitated. That had gone…so smoothly. No death chants, no spotting then losing, no nearly crashing into the wall at full speed. Could she have waited more? Should she have tried to knock Nora off track instead of end the game?
No, it was necessary, I had to catch it now or risk losing it. Victory or death, and death waits for no one so grab victory when you can. Echo told herself. But would that everything else in her life could go so smoothly.

  Ronald David Quinn-Smith xxxxxxxxxxxxx Brianna Cathaline Quinn-Smith Hufflepuff Seventh Year xxxxxxxxxxxx Slytherin Fourth Year
When he heard Echo caught the Snitch, thus ending the match, Ron had a feeling of vague disappointment and … relief. To be sure, he knew the Badgers’ chances of securing the Cup were slim, a lot of things had to happen, and they weren’t in control of their own destiny, to borrow a sportscasterism. No, his own play had been off the whole match, he knew it, and there was nothing to be done for it now. Mom told him how glad she was when her last Quidditch match came and went, after seven years, she’d grown heartily sick of the endless practices, not to mention the broken bones and harfing up blood that were part and parcel of her match experience. At the time, he hadn’t understood her feelings; he did now, and appreciated why her Quidditch gear had remained in her old school trunk since graduation, and why he planned to do the same with his. Except for the occasional pick-up game, he was good and done with all of this.
With the match done, he knew he needed to get down to the ground before the adrenalin stopped blasting through him, and his injury asserted itself in force. Ron didn’t feel like passing out at altitude, that, and he needed to find Anna—now. He knew she was hurt, likely as badly as he, and he knew he needed to make sure his baby sister got down in one piece.
Brianna had been swooping around, hoping to get one more chance to make a difference in the match, and fulfill her own personal quest to equal or better Ron and Aria, a forlorn hope given her badly broken arm which sent sharp shards of pain through her every time it moved, or got moved. While she refused to give her opponents the gratification of hearing her scream, she was whimpering in pain, and tears were flowing down her face. Now, the match was over, she nosed over and flew towards the pitch, as she was starting to feel woozy. ‘Need to find Ron, need to find Ron, need to find Ron,’ was the mantra going through her mind, as she scoured the pitch with the intensity of a Seeker looking for a Snitch (‘Bless you, Echo, bless you Echo; Gloria et Honoria’).
As it worked out, the siblings found each other at about the same time. Brianna reached the ground, got off her mount, and her legs nearly gave out as she touched the pitch. As she walked the few meters, Brianna was feeling lightheaded, and she could barely stay on her feet. As she walked toward him, she noted he’d made no effort to get off his broomstick, and that blood was trickling through his trouser leg and onto the grass. “Gawd, Ronald, you sucked up there,” she said drunkenly, as blood dripped freely from the tips of the fingers of her right hand. Ronald gave his younger sister a dignified sniff, and he replied, “Projecting much, are we, Anna? You weren’t exactly David Beckham up there either. Are you all right?”
“Not really, Ron. I’m not feeling right,” admitted Brianna. Ron breathed a sigh, and said wearily, “I can’t walk, Anna.” Brianna nodded, and she replied, “I can’t carry you, Ron.” Ron digested that bit of information, and he said, “We’ll manage, like we always do.” Ron got off his broomstick, tested his injured leg, and knew instantly it wouldn’t hold his weight, and Brianna stepped in to keep him from falling. He wrapped an arm around her, and he could feel the sobs of pain going through his sister, and he heard her whimper like a wounded dog.
“Aren’t we a pair?’ he said, as they attempted to hobble towards the castle. “Mom’s in the stands, right?” asked Brianna hopefully. Ron nodded, as he tried hard to hide the fact he was now in agony; he was pale and shaky now, sweat poured freely down his face. “She promised that would she would be, Anna. Trust me, she’s here.” Brianna sighed, and asked, “So, you figure she’s laughing, crying, or facepalming right now.” After a beat, they answered each other in duet, “All of the above,” before laughing aloud.
“So, butterbeers?” she asked hopefully, as she eyed the long trek back to the castle with a bit of dread. Ron laughed, and said, “Yes, Anna, like always.”

Shot through the h e a r t and you're to b l a m e
D a r l i n', you give love a b a d name
╔════════════════════════════════╗
Syd Barrett
Seventeen Years Old - Seventh Year - Ravenclaw - Halfblood
Quidditch Captain & Seeker - Daily Dragon & Art Club Artist
╚════════════════════════════════╝
Syd made his way to the Quidditch pitch for the first game of the season. He felt a little nervous, not only because this was the first game Ravenclaw would play with Syd as their captain, but also because his team had a lot of fresh faces who had never even tried out for Quidditch before, one of which was a cousin that he had convinced to at least try out for keeper. He wasn't particularly worried about Noreen. The one he was worried about most was, in fact, his one and only reserve player. Hopefully they'd never have to pull Kai into a real game -- the flinging of his beater bat during tryouts was almost enough to scare Syd into not even finding a reserve position, but he couldn't do that to his friend. However, he would also try his damnest to keep Kai benched, even if they went down a player. The agreement they came to was that Malakai Everly was to be benched unless specifically instructed by Syd or Linsey themselves to step in.

Skyla knew this year would be a little more rough. She had only been captain a short while, and already felt she was failing in her role. She was so tired all the time, and her "clumsy" episodes were becoming more frequent. She was already sure she'd be back in the hospital over christmas, but she had to endure for now. She couldn't, she wouldn't, let her team down. If she did.... the guilt she'd feel would be unbearable. Today was their first match, set to be against Ravenclaw. They had a good team, and she hoped she could beat Syd Barrett once more. Last year, she barely managed to catch the snitch, and that was only after enduring two hits from their beaters. Her team still had Zack and Nic to protect the team, and much like last year, she trusted both completely. And hopefully she'd trained Sebastian enough that he could comfortably take over if she failed.

Lewis happily made his way to the pitch, ready for their first game of the year. Ravenclaw, much like the rest of the teams, seemed hugely affected by waves of roster changes. He was lucky theirs hadn't been awful, but now they had Kai... there. He was nice, but last practice he flung a bat at Lewis, earning the younger a trip to the hospital wing. Apparently the rule was simply that he was to be their cheerleader like Robin had been before transferring to wherever xey had gone. Luckily, Kai's sister Everly (and their sister Ruth, for that matter), were nice, if a bit quiet. Though Syd was already proving himself an excellent captain, and Lewis was hopeful for the season. With Linsey as their Vice Captain, they couldn't lose!

Linsey Grey-Cavendish
Ravenclaw │ Fifth Year │ Fifteen Years Old │ Fifth Year │ Beater │ Quidditch Vice-Captain │ Ravenclaw Prefect
Linsey was feeling good about today’s match. The cool Highland air with slight hints of that morning’s mist, and the feeling of the sun upon her face was enough to make her feel charged with energy, and she knew they’d need her at her fullest. It had taken them a bit to pull together a team, and one point Linsey even suggested she take up a Chaser slot, so one of the other players could play Beater, as that had been their second choice. She was confident they had a winning mix of skill players, and that they had as good a chance of getting the Cup this year as anyone else.
That said, seeing Kai lose his Beater bat during practice scared the willies out of her, and she and Syd agreed he not be pulled into match-play unless they were really up against it. Privately, Linsey thought it was simply a confidence issue, and that Kai could be coached into being a good Beater, just like she’d been working with Yarrick. With Syd in the van as Seeker, Noreen between the pipes as Keeper, and Everly, Lewis and Charlotte as Chasers, they had a solid, if a bit inexperienced, core to work with.
Arriving at the pitch in good time, Linsey made a point of checking on the other members of the squad, before going over to stand with Syd.
