This all was so very strange and... well, strange! Louisa liked challenges yes but not up in the air really. It didn't sound that bad thought as Vindictus explained the game and pointed out there was no goal hoops. She took a deep breath, made her hands into fists seconds before the man announced the start of this strange ancient game. But she didn't move right away, her eyes scanned the closest people around her (mostly younger students), she needed older ones to be near. Mounting the broom at last the Ravenclaw leaned forward and it lunged underneath her way much faster than she intended it to do (like always) and ended up shooting up and in the center of the pitch the stones hitting the cauldron with loud clanks but nothing fell inside.

Louisa didn't realize she squeezed her eyes shut and her shoulders were tensed this much until she felt something was wrong... like, the broom was suspended in midair and the stones were bumping against the cauldron and Louisa's body from all directions. Nothing hurt, she just felt like a piñata. She ignored the ground Merlin-knows-how-far-is and veeeeeery gently moved the broom around. And it moved!! Louisa's mouth would curl in a smile if she wasn't so stressed out about gravity.

With the speed of a crawling turtle she started her journey of collecting stones, which insisted on hitting her or the side of the cauldron rather than falling into it.
