"..Oh.. That's a shame..." He said, frowning. "We'll have to fix that, then, won't we?" He said, smiling again. "Anyways.. What'll you have me do..?"bg

Areya smiled at Sparky. "She'll give you one heck of a workout, mate," The fourth-year said with a smile. She was in a good modd, having earned the Seeker position.

"Heh.. I guess that's a good thing.." He said, laughing a bit. "What position do you have? Or.. are you trying out? Or.. heh..?" He laughed again. "I just confused myself. I'm sorry."bg

Areya smiled at Sparky. She liked him... In a friend way, of course. "Seeker." She grinned. "Can't wait to tell Mum. I'm Muggle-born, you see," She picks up her broom.

"Ah... I could never play Seeker.. Just never felt right for me." He thought for a few seconds. "If you don't mind me asking, What was it like when you found out about magic?" He'd wondered about that for years, now.bg

Areya smiled. "Great, really. Magic was always in the books I read, you know, with dragons and such, but, well, I never thought I had it until I got my letter. Mum took me out for a fancy dinner that nigh, she was so proud!" Areya paused and blushed a little before asking her own question. "What's your family like, Sparky?"

He smiled as she told her story, and then looked at the ground at her question. "My.. family is.. normal. Two parents, three kids, one house.." He said, studying his shoe deeply.bg
IC: A Ravenclaw in blue robes could be seen approaching the stadium from the castle, if anyone was to look, and he seemed to be moving quite fast. If anyone were to know this Ravenclaw well, then they would take note that this particular Ravenclaw did not often move at high speed. The motivation behind his speed, however, was apparent from the beat up looking broom held under one arm as he ran.
Quidditch! If there was one concept Ceiced really enjoyed wrapping his mind around it was Quidditch, the sport of magic practitioners the world over. A perfect melding of strategy and athleticism, working both the mind and the body under extreme stress. Usually it was enough for Ceiced to be a spectator to Quidditch, and while he'd tried out at his past school he'd never actually gotten the chance to participate in an actual game. Here was his chance, and he wouldn't let it slip through his fingers.
The broom was borrowed, somebody's cast-off once they had upgraded, and he couldn't even tell what make it was the handle was so worn. It should be enough, he hoped, and maybe if he got on the team he could pick up a newer one. Right now, it was good enough. He came onto the field thinking maybe it would look stupid next to the other people's brooms, but was surprised to see only two other Ravenclaws standing and chatting, with the Captain off to one side looking peeved. If it was only this many trying out, maybe there wouldn't even be a Ravenclaw team. Hopefully seeing the Head Boy out at tryouts would spur the rest of them to at least make an effort.
He presented himself in front of Morgan and proclaimed, "Here to try out for Chaser position, if you please. I'm ready for anything you want to test me with." That, of course, opened up a wide range of possible outcomes, some pretty nasty depending on just how annoyed Morgan might be at the sparse response to her call to arms. He was prepared, he hoped, though on a clunky broom his will might not be enough to take him to a position on the team. All he could do was stand straight and wait for whatever trial would be presented.bg

((Thaks sooo much you guys. You know what? I think Morgan will buy her whole team Firebolts now.))
If Morgan was startled to see the head boy turn up a try-outs it was only for a second or two. She quickly composed herself. Let's see, Two beaters, a seeker, and a chaser? Not a full team, but it was getting better all the time. Morgan felt sure that the last three spots could be filled before the first match. Or, she hoped so. She surveyed her team.
"Right. Areya has proven herself capable as seeker. Sparky, I will personally try you out as beater. Areya, Can you play keeper for a minute? Just see if you can block what Ceiced shoots. I don't think I'll bing out the bludgers just yet, but I have these." She pulled a muggle baseball from her pocket. "I don't know what they call these, but they hit them with bats like ours." she motioned for Sparky to follow her to one end of the pitch, and for Areya and Ceiced to go to the other.bg

"In the house or on the team?" Morgan asked, not comprehending Sparky's question. She double checked to be sure her hair was bound. It was. Her amber eyes squared on Sparky. "Are you ready?"bg

Areya smiled when Morgan pulled the baseball out of her pocket. "Morgan, that's a baseball, and, yeah, I'll play keeper for Ceiced." The fourth-year nodded to the Head Boy.
