Wait, was he late? Theo rushed to join the others on the pitch and he freaked out a bit as he saw West already up in the air. GAH, they were gonna kick him out before even starting! "Hello... erm..." He approached the adults and scratched the back of his head. Let's just get the ball rolling, huh? "I'm Theodore Kinsley. Sorry, if I'm late... can I just..." Oh, West already had the quaffle. Well, in that case.. "I'll just..." He gestured to the sky and stuff. Yeah. Theodore hopped onto his broomstick and did the quickest exit off the ground ever.
He felt better once he was in the air.
After getting himself settled in the sky, Theo gave West a look. Like... they were gonna get up to their old terrortwins tricks, right? He had MISSED that. And he was READY to get back to where they had left off.
SO... Who was their keeper today, HUH? WANNA PIECE OF HIM? Huh? HUH? Come get it!

It was good to be airborne, especially after a term stuck mostly on the ground and indoors. And very very cold.
"We're not going to get anywhere if we're all fighting over the quaffle the whole time," Mo mused as he fell in beside West. Fighting over the quaffle didn't really showcase why these particular chasers were worth contracting. Or at least, that was Mo's opinion. "Let's run a few plays, take turns taking the lead so everyone gets a chance to shine." Maybe he just wanted all three of them to get offers today.
Terrortwins tricks? Yeah they were. West was pretty sure if either him or Theo went blind, as long as they had each other to fly with, they'd be okay after flying together for seven years already. And when you tossed a Mo into the mix... West casually spun the Quaffle on one knuckle and nodded at Mo's words, glancing over at Salvatore. Hey, if the guy was too slow to get in the scoring zone then that was on him. Whatever. They WERE supposed to start.
"We shine best together anyways." West agreed,
"Lets start with some quickswitch dropbacks. Lets go." he flew ahead to take point, expecting the other two to tuck in behind him. After a bit he popped the Quaffle up and peeled back so that one of the pair of them would slide in and catch it, taking point. It almost appeared a bit like juggling, if you viewed the three of them as the balls and the Quaffle as the hand, at least until they got into the scoring zone, then whoever had the Quaffle would get tricksy.
