"THANKS!" she called out to him, and she smiled his way. "SAME TO YOU!" Charlie...what a hottie! Not that she was concerned with that kind of stuff during a match, though...

Anyway...



Maddie considered switching up for a bit and trying her hand at guarding one of the goal hoops. She'd even made her way halfway there, when she heard Emmalyn's call. Cool! Maddie was game to try a little more passing. It'd worked for her and Charlie before, so maybe that was one of her strong suits. "HIT ME WITH YOUR BEST SHOT!" she called out, and then she flew into an area where there were no other flyers, leaving herself unguarded and wide open for a catch.

Hovering near the center of the pitch, Maddie eyed the quaffle Emmalyn had thrown and kept her eyes narrowed in on it, making sure she was within the right range to catch it. When she thought the timing was just right, she soared forward, accepted the pass, and then dashed toward the goal hoops. Still somewhat toward the center, Maddie decided that the center goal hoop was the one she'd try for. She eyed it, raised her arm toward it in preparation of throwing the quaffle, and then at the last second, hurled it toward the left goal hoop instead.

Nothing like trying to trick the Keeper into thinking you were going for one goal hoop when you were really going for another...
She paused once she got to the goal hoops, ready to distract the keeper into no knowing if the quaffle would come back to her or be scored. "You got this, Maddie!" she cheered as she watched her friend dash towards the hoops and attempt a score. "Woo hoo!" It was an amazing play. They were all working together seamlessly to get the quaffle to the goal.

Zooming back towards the center of the pitch, she got ready for the next play to begin. She had her hands out, balancing effortlessly on her broom, in preparation for the quaffle to be thrown to her. "Let's go team! I'm open!"
