Okay, so maybe he was a bit too distracted by the taunting. Rune contemplated letting his mum know about this and hear their practice runs while he caught the ball, and tossed it back toward Harmony.

Harmony booed as Aire’s shot went in. That - was just a lucky throw. Harmony yelled her thanks to Rune for throwing her the quaffle, before taking off toward the goals once again. ”You can’t catch me Poopswabber! I’m going to get the goal this time, you can bet on it.” She held on tightly to her broom with her knee stump and thighs, really throwing her leg at Aire was not the best decision - it was fine when she didn’t have the quaffle but now....

AYYYY Aire raised Harmony's leg in silent cheer when she successfully got the quaffle past Rune to shoot. Of course he passed right back to Harmony, which mean Aire was right back on the chase. She waved the leg in her hand ahead, calling out a taunting "I have your leg and now I'm coming for your quaffle!"
Just like she was swiping one of Harmony's bacon strips for a hash brown on the ship, Aire swooped in, replaced the quaffle with the leg, and flew the other direction.

Haha! Aire hadn’t taken the quaffle! She had missed! Or...so Harmony thought. She kept pushing toward the goal when she realized Aire wasn’t following her, she looked in her arm... and was carrying her leg. She growled, turned her broom to look at Aire, then re-attached her leg. With a little yelp she began chasing after Aire again, trying to get the quaffle.
She didn’t get anywhere near Aire, darn Aire and her prank swapping abilities. ”I’ll get you yet my pretty!”

Aire snickered as she managed to make off with the quaffle, but before long, Harmony--leg reattached--was back on her tail. Luckily Harmony seemed to be delayed, as she called off a taunt. Aire bumped the quaffle over to Max and called back to Harmony: "Awww, do you really think I'm pretty?"
Aire had never really cared if she was pretty or not. She just had to blend in with the crowd. But maybe it would be nice if a specific unnamed person thought she was pretty. Welp! Either way, it wasn't important to playing Quidditch!

Harmony smiled as Aire asked if she thought she was pretty and yelled back, . ”Of course you’re pretty! Pretty boring! JK that was mean. You’re beautiful cuz.” Of course, Aire couldn’t just keep moving with the quaffle, Harmony tried to catch it as Aire threw it to Max.
Of course, Aire couldn’t be nice and just throw it straight to Harmony, and Harmony wasn’t quite quick enough to catch it.

Jass looked at the time and luckily had a good grip on his broom. Why was he always running late on closing tryouts? “Alright, everyone! Great plays I’m seeing.

Don’t get her wrong, Aire enjoyed most of her classes. But being back at Hogwarts was primarily awesome because of Quidditch and exchanging the notebook with Austen. And right now was Quidditch time! She grabbed her broom, climbed up the stairs instead of down, to a place with a balcony outside the castle. There she balanced her broom mid-air, climbed on the railing, and called ”Hey Harmony, wanna see me do a flip?” before doing a front flip and landing on her broom. ”Last one to the pitch has to write their name as Mayor McCheesesticks!” she called, broom surfing for the Quidditch Pitch.
It wasn’t until she arrived at the Pitch that Aire remembered she had Responsibilities to do now. In addition to prefect, over the summer Aire had gotten a letter from Captain Marcia appointing her Quidditch vice captain. This one at least made some sense, Aire thought, although she strongly suspected that anyone that put her in charge of anyone was drunk.
Anyways, once there Aire hopped off, rubbing her legs. Soooo maybe broom surfing the whole way wasn’t a good idea and there was probably no way she beat Harmony there. ”I call a rematch on the way back!” Accepting her punishment, Aire grabbed a stack of leftover forms and the Quidditch chest from the locker rooms. She wasn’t sure if Marcia wanted her to fill out a form but...may as well?

Penelope made her way to the pitch, ready for tryouts. Every year, she hoped that she’d make the team as a Chaser (or a Reserve Chaser at the very least), but every year, she makes the team as the Reserve Keeper. There were a lot of Reserve Chasers – enough to form a team of their own – so she wasn’t very hopeful that she’d make the team with her ideal position. However, the only thing worse than making the team as the Keeper was not making the team at all – except of course making the team as the Seeker or as a Beater. Those were pretty terrible, too. Maybe if she had to choose between being the Seeker or being off the team, she’d actually rather be off the team, but that wasn’t going to happen so it didn’t matter. Once Penny arrived, she nodded in greeting to both Duanaire and Harmony before grabbing a form to fill out.

Of course Sir and Ma'am would want Mattie and Eden to continue with quidditch. Eden was in leadership and for some reason they thought Mattie would follow her brother's lead. Nevermind they were in very different houses with different team dynamics and different odds of being placed anywhere. It seemed like half of Gryffindor was on the quidditch team or trying to get on the quidditch team. Mattie was well aware she was going to be a bench warmer for a bit and leadership was not for her in this. At least during practices she got to hit lead balls at things. Destruction was fun so long as it wasn't hurting people. And if you had to throw a punch to put someone in their place so be it.
She acknowledged the others at the quidditch pitch and picked up a form and quickly filled it out in hurried spider-like writing.

Harmony was thrilled that Aire was the next VC, her cousin was on the road to become the next Quidditch famous Masters. Of course, she wasn't going to go easy on her cousin, as they raced to the quidditch pitch, and Harmony won. "I accept your rematch! And I'll win again even after we've played some quidditch!"
She grinned and filled out her form, weird that Marcia wasn't out yet, and then waved a hello to the others that came in while she was stretching, she was ready to dominate the field this year...if she made the team. She hoped she could actually be on the starting line this year.

Harmony was excited for the role of Quidditch captain, but was a little sad about how she got it. Aire had given it to Harmony, after she had her fun privileges revoked. Harmony looked at last years quidditch team, there were quite a few empty spots to fill. She was thankful that Aire had been planning on doing this, Aire already had some ideas for drills to run.
It was nice though, her best friend and cousin was right beside her to support her, having gotten to the field early to help Harmony set up. Harmony grinned at her, "I'm super lucky to have you Aire. But, who do I make my VC now?"
She set out the quidditch forms for everyone to fill out.

When you've been fighting for it all your life You've been struggling to make things right That's how a superhero learns to fly
Torin had heard about quidditch and flying class pretty early on and he was all for it! he had written to the nice adult who had made his chair to see if there was a way he could use a broom. Turns out he did! it was a special attachment to a broom that help hold him on considering he couldn’t use his legs to hold on. With it, he was able to pass flying and be able to play quidditch, he loved being in the air and wished he could just ride the broom everywhere!
Skyla had to carry the spacial broom for him as Torin had to drive. “Hi! I’m Torin is this where my sis and I can sign up?” he asked. “I brought my own broom as well cause well I’m a bit of a special case.” He said gesturing to the face he had a wheelchair. Once he had a form he got it filled out and passed it in. he could most certainly scratch some. Lasting he needed was a thrown-out shoulder. That would be the worst!

After her disastrous OWLs, there was a talk with Professor Harlowe. Aire had gladly surrendered her prefect badge--it sucked she couldn’t give points for pranks she caught other kids doing, but she was sure Harmony would carry that on in her stead. What really devastated her was having to surrender her Quidditch captainship. She had thankfully been allowed to try out to stay on the team, but her captainship was forfeit.
Aire had already talked to Harmony about it, knowing her cousin was her top choice--not out of nepotism, she swore! Just...she could just hand Harmony her ideas for “drills” (broom stunts) and knew Harmony would be excited to lead the team. Plus Harmony had been Marcia’s other option for Quidditch captain! And leading a Quidditch team was kind of like leading a ship crew, right?
Still, she was out early to help Harmony set up before tryouts. (Aka, she was procrastinating the review reading she was supposed to do...She’d be more energetic after some air time….something like that!) She grinned and shrugged when Harmony asked for her opinion on VC. ”Penny? She’s responsible. I guess...worst comes to worst you can always put Mayor McCheese? Although then you’d have to justify how a kid who hasn’t made the team for like three years in a row got selected vice captain.”
Aire chuckled at her joke. ”Welp! You’re cap’n now, Chickenweasel. I’m back to my comfy hammock of no responsibility. Although I guess I have to fill out one of these forms again.”
She had no sooner picked up a form than a kid rolled --literally, he was in a wheelchair--up asking to sign up. She handed him and his sister a form, then scratched her own out and lingered off to the side, stretching quietly where she hopefully wouldn’t be noticed.
