After a few swigs of water and toweling off his sweat-drenched face, Aaron reseated himself on his broom and rejoined the fray. Miss Bel had called for a scrimmage, and he was COMPLETELY EXCITED to throw himself into the mix, bat a-blazing! More than that, he hadn't been too successful with the obstacle course, so beating around a bludger sounded like music to his ears. And his arm... If his arm had ears. WHICH IT DIDN'T. ....Anyway, the sentiment he was trying to convey was that it always offered a much needed confidence boost. Yeah, that!

Getting more practice swings in as he observed the other Beater hopefuls, Aaron decided to bide his time. Everyone would get a chance, so he didn't need to race forward and steal anyone else's "moment". He didn't mind this, as it was amazing watching the others with all their talent. Actually, he'd let out more than a few LOUD CHEERS as Derf and Daisy twacked the bludger around the pitch! They were going to have an amazing team this year, and he hadn't even needed a dream to tell him so. Though.... Well. They tended not to tell him that type of thing.

ANYWAY, waiting had been the right thing to do, as Emmalyn had just smacked the bludger fiercely away from a Chaser flying around the other side of the pitch. It was fastly hurtling in his direction causing Aaron to push forward, finally seizing the opportunity to get a piece of the metal ball. It tore furiously through the air, dashing this way and that, but adrenaline kept his senses sharp. Which...was why he'd seen that the bludger's path ended with another of his housemates. Aaron laid himself flat against the long broom handle, gaining momentum as he tried to get to it before it could do any harm.... BUT before he'd gotten into striking distance, Emmalyn had come barreling out of nowhere, causing the bludger to smack hard into the side of her body. It appeared to be her side, but mostly... he was surprised she'd just taken the hit full on like that.

In awe, but still aware, Aaron HEARD the bludger whizzing back and quickly did a complete 180, throwing his body behind the weight of the bat. With a satisfying CRACK!, the metal ball ricocheted off the wooden material, soaring off into a sparsely populated area of pitch. Huh.... He turned his attention to Emmalyn once more. That had been really brave... Wow... "Are you okay?!" He was hovering nearby. "That was a hard blow!"
