Post by Prof Brianna O'Donnell on Aug 28, 2007 17:28:08 GMT
After a delightful holiday in the South Pacific, Bree returned, vibrant and fresh and ready for what was to come. Her first class was going to be a mixed group, she had arranged it with Darrow, to be in the afternoon after classes and with as many students as wanted to attend. She was very excited for the lesson as it was not strictly a lesson, more a time to muck about and have fun.
When the time came, Brianna levitated the trunk that had been so nicely mended, and threw her broom onto her shoulder. She arrived on the Quidditch Pitch before any others and took her place in the middle of it. She lowered the trunk, set her broom against it as it quivered and shook and put her wand away. She took a deep breath of the clean pitch air and let it out, a happy smile on her face. Excitement and anxiety coursed through her and kept her electric smile on her face.

Sarie had heard about a quidditch class she didn't know if first years where allowed to take the class. She poked her head in to see Professor O'Donnell. "Umm... Professor are first years allowed to take the class she asked shyly.
She looked around there where no other students there. She was bouncing on the balls of her feet wishing she wasn't only one there with the Professor.

{ I'd join since its supposed to be more fun than educational, but I'm not sure what age this limits. Is this just for the smaller years? }[/color]

(This will answer your question Erys)
Brianna was excitedly tugging at her gaming uniform. She had not worn it in such a long time and what better why to educate the students then by showing them what traditional gear looks like. She had kept her cloths washed, padding polished and all neatly stored away for the day her team would call on her again to play. She never allowed herself to hope too much for she knew that she was, by thirty, past her prime. Yet she had played on for a while, thanking her lucky stars for every day extra she got.
Those days were past though, the next generation needed what she could teach best and by Jove, she would. She got her chance soon enough, when a small Gryffindor came up to her. Bree smiled down at the girl and dropped her gloved hands to her side. Bree let out a small laugh and put a hand on the girl's shoulder. "This class is for all year, from first years to sevenths," she smiled and leaned down putting her face close to Sarie's, "though I doubt any seventh years can spare a moment for some quidditch. Much too busy studying for their finals." She straightened and smiled again.

Sarie smiled at the teacher. She thought of Ian who wanted her to take his place in the team after he left. She hadn't really played before and needed to know the rules. She saw a Slytherin and gave a small wave. She bit her lip what if she wasn't good enough to play.

{Alright then! I'll roleplay as if the holidays have passed, and shes healed. }
The holidays had come and gone, and she had been healed right up after the nasty vampire incident. Seeing as there was nothing to do after everything was over that day, Erys had decided to join the flying professor outside for a class. Strange, yes, but rumor had it that the lesson was going to be more fun than educational. She'd have to know about Quidditch and its rules if she wanted to stay on the Slytherin team, which she had tried out for a few weeks ago. As beater, since everybody knew how much she liked to hit things. Turns out she got the spot! Yay. Being fourth term now, it was her job to stock up her house's points for the House Cup. Without her, last term's total score would have been positively horrendous. Too low, not to mention an embarrassment for every person in Slytherin. Why, Erys was ashamed of them! Besides her, Joshua, and perhaps a few others, no one had even tried doing well for points. Where had their determination gone, for god's sake?
So with broom in hand she strode onto the Quidditch Pitch, joining the little Sarie girl and Professor O'Donnell. "Mind if I join you?" Erys asked smoothly, tapping her long fingernails against the dark handle. Her broom was a thing to be proud of, shadowy and green. (I have no idea the broom types, does anybody have a link? I thought I saw one with all the broom types and stuff, but I lost it.) Aside from that fact, it might seem a little odd that she be in a class with little children. Hopefully some other people her age would arrive, or she'd be alone. It didn't bug her, really, she'd just do really well for her house. PLUS this lesson was for fun, it didn't matter. So there. If her presence was too much of a problem, Erys would leave, simple as that.
Wearing her trademark jean jacket, she peered out around the pitch. It was familiar already. And it was a nice day, too! Was it fall already? Her favorite season, because she could wear jeans and sweaters outside, instead of shorts. Halloween rocked too. Recalling this while tapping her foot expectantly against the ground, Erys crossed her arms, still holding onto her broom with one hand. When was this thing going to start already? She was so not going to be the only teen there. Joshua or Veata should get their butts out, too.

Sarie looked over at the Slytherin 7th whos name was Erys Grace. She wanted to get along. "Hi" she muttered. Not knowing what else to say. "Are you on your House Quidditch team?" She was trying to make small talk.

Ashton strolled confidently onto the field, his Firebolt gripped tightly in his hand. He had been named Captain and Seeker of the Ravenclaw team over the summer, and he was determined to lead his house to victory this year. "Hey Sarie!" he called, waving at the girl. He gave the Slytherin a smile as well, "Hey. I'm Ashton."

Sarie waved back. "Hey, whats up?" She asked as she ran up. Ashton looked much better this year but still the same. "You haven't changed much how was your summer?" She was ready to fly. She spent most of the summer on the broom she had been given at the end of last term. She already missed Ian.
Time to get a move on. Came the friendly who still didn't have a name. She was a bubbly girl of 12 now not the shy 11 year old she was long gone.

Ashton shrugged, "Not much. Spent half the summer snowboarding in the mountains, and the other half surfing in Hawaii. How was your summer?"

"I spent it in a musty old library learning to block my mind better. Other than that. I spent it riding my new broom. Well its not new its a hand me down but new to me. You seen Maxi yet I haven't ?" Sarie was talking really fast but she didn't know why. She bounced up and down she really had changed over the summer like she promised herself over the summer. "So you here for the fun I guess."
