School brooms and protective equipment will be provided.
Professor Vindictus was the first to arrive (as usual) and he already had the equipment needed for the lesson assembled: school brooms were on the broom rack and a box of goggles was on the grass next to it. There two other crates sitting next to the rack but these were closed so that no student could guess what they were going to play.
The flying professor leaned against the broom rack as he waited for students to arrive for the lesson. |

Alyssa heaved a sigh of relief. This game was definitely a lot different than that of Quidditch. She figured that she much preferred the latter considering that there was a Beater's bat and a bludger that she could hit. Chasing after something was definitely not for her. She slowly landed and got off her broomstick. She walked it over to the broomstick rack and placed it back inside it. Then she took off her goggles. That Quod sure made a mess when it exploded in her hands. Thank goodness for the goggles.
She placed the goggles back where she took them from, retrieved her backpack and walked over to the Professor. "Thank you for yet another interesting game Professor."she told him before heading off back to the castle.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Glenn Reyes Fourth Year | Glenn set down on the ground again. Whew. That was exhausting.
She replaced her broomstick and goggles where she had got them and limped walked over to the professor, "Thanks Professor!" She gave a tired smile and tried to say it brightly but it came out a bit wearily.
The badger got her stuff and head back up to the castle and rest. |

It was over!
Ellie hopped off her broom, not realizing that she was still a few feet in the air. She oh-so gracefully tumbled to the ground and landed on her bum, but quickly and swiftly stood back up.
Because that most certainly did not happen. "Thanks for the lesson, Professor," And an interesting game in which hot air containers blow up and scare Ellie. Fun stuff. Casually brushing off her Ravenclaw robes, Ellie took her goggles off, shook her hair back in place and returned her broom and goggles where they belonged. With a sigh, she grabbed her book bag, looking back at Vashti and Ellie S. with a small smile before heading back to the castle.

Wow! This game was awesome! Ira had never played games in air, much less Quidditch, so this quadpot too was pretty much fun for her. She landed gently on the ground with a BIG smile plastered on her face. Why? Because Gryffindor had won!! Yipee!
She then stepped off the broom and proceeded towards the rack. She removed her goggles and then returned the broom and goggles to their place in their racks. Then turning to professor, she said, "Thanks for the wonderful game Professor Vindictus"
Saying so, she took her bag and proceeded towards her common room.

Keefer landed appreciatively. Not only was he not a fan of the school brooms, but he was not a Chaser. And Quodpot reminded him far too much of Chasing. Except with the added bonus of getting exploded upon if you mess up. Who wouldn't want to play this game?
"That was fun, Professor," the Captain addressed to his official. Even though he had only been in for one round, he found watching the game equally exciting. Seeing Alyssa and Messer head out, he hurriedly ran after them. "Messer, Lyssie, wait up!"

The Gryffindor was shaking. VISIBLY shaking. Had she really just done all that? Her reflexes had simply taken over and made her able to fly. It was a heat of the moment sort of thing and the fifth year was just glad that nothing had exploded on her or in her face. In fact...Gryffindor had done very well! She would reflect on this once she was back safely on the ground and her limps had stopped moving and twitching.
Kurumi looked over at Ira and wondered if Selina knew about the young talent. Why wasn't this girl on the Quidditch pitch?! Kurumi was about to reach out to the girl when she already headed off the pitch.
Kurumi returned her broom to the rack and offered Professor Vindictus a wobbly sort of bow for the lesson. Erm...back to the common room? Well, not really. She needed to head to the kitchens first to bake for the Quidditch match. So, off the Gryffindor went.
Thank Merlin that frightening experience was over!
