Amelia blushed and her cheeks matched the pink in her eyes. Did everyone know she had been turned? Were they talking about her?
Yes I am a Lycan...how else do you think I could talk to you telepathically now when I couldn't before? and you are right...that is exactly how it felt...like I had woken up from a life where nothing had happened...I feel alive now!
ooc: we should move this story to another thread instead of taking up space on the tryouts...reply to this post...but post it in a new thread called "Watching The Ravenclaw Tryouts" ok? sorry Kelly...

OOC: Ok will do, but i did really mean to try out so i am going to try out
and i to am sorry Kelly
Bic: Christian strolled onto the pitch with his firebolt, everyone had one now a days. anyone with even a descent size bank vault could own one without losing to much. He walked up to Kelly having seen her around and by the way she held herself and talked to the others there was left no doubt she was in charge of this little get together.
As he walked up he smiled at her softly and a little sheepishly "Hello, my name is Christian Wells and i kind of wanted to try for Ravenclaw chaser position." he said to her softly but still being heard with ease.

((Thanks for moving that, guys ^^ and Amelia, I'm not sure about the Lycans - I'll have to ask Jade, or WR/Claire. Just sit tight, but feel free to have her come closer, if you'd like.)) As soon as Chantelle was in the near vicinity, Kelly could tell that the young girl was nervous. She affixed an encouraging smile to her face, and spoke up. "Hey, Channy - good luck," she replied, then continued. "Well, we're going to wait for a few more arrivals before beginning the trials, so you can go talk with the other students until we do so," she continued, gesturing towards the the slowly-forming group of ravenclaws. Her eyes were soon averted towards the other side of the pitch, where she saw a pair talking. Even though Amelia had been there first, Kelly hadn't even seen her until she had noticed the boy talking to her. It appeared that they hadn't been conversing too long when the boy decided to come onto the pitch, his own trusty firebolt in hand. He instantly strode up to her, and introduced himself. "Welcome Christian! In case you didn't know, I'm Kelly, and Jade and I are the team captains," she replied, introducing herself as well. After wishing him good luck and directed him towards the group, as well. ((That's a great post, but we haven't asked for the students for the actual tryouts - do you think you could copy/paste the flying part into MS Word and save it for later, or something? Thanks )

Nicholas walked onto the quidditch pitch and got straight on to his broom he did a few dives followed by loop de loops and sumersaults, he flew towards the other players at a very high speed and all of a sudden abruptly stopped "hi i herd there was going to be trails?"

Ceiced warily approached the Quidditch Pitch, not sure if he really wanted to tryout. He knew he wasn't strong enough to be a Beater, he wasn't agile enough to be a Keeper, and he thought that the Chaser positions were already taken. That left Seeker. "With my eyesight?" he muttered. Then again, the famous Harry Potter had played Seeker and he wore glasses... he would try out but he had no idea whether he was good enough. He was a cautious one, so he hadn't purchased a broom yet. He saw there were a few extras though, so he went up to the two captains and said, "Ah, hello. I'd like to try out for Seeker position." he gulped nervously. He realized he'd never really flown much on brooms at all. What was he doing here? "Unless... ah... the position is already taken?"
OOC: *Bashes himself on the head* Stupidity moment... is the Quidditch Pitch the stadium or just a field with goalposts?

((Did you see the movies? The pitch is just like that - the field, the hoops, and the stands for the people...so basically, the stadium, as you said.))
Kelly watched as a boy flew onto the field, did a few tricks, then suddenly seemed to 'realize' that the trials were going on.
"Yes, there are - we haven't started yet, so you can go stand with the rest of the students trying out until we do so," she replied. Once he had stepped off, another boy, this one much more timid, approached.
"No, not at all - none of the positions are taken yet, except for Jade and my chaser spots," the brunette explained. She put an encouraging smile on her face, as she could tell that this boy with the glasses was clearly timid.
"And I'm Kelly, by the way. But the trials haven't officially started yet, so if you'd like, you can wait with the rest," she added, gesturing towards the group.
((I think we'll start once Jade posts here once more. -goes to find her-))

Cella made her way down to the quidditch pitch, she'd always wanted to be a beater. With a small sigh she saw that many people had turned up for try outs. Why bother, I can't possibly make it she thought to herself.
She was on the verge of turning on her heel when she could have sworn she heard her father's taunting voice laughing at her for being so afraid. With a determined smile she walked up to Kelly. "A-Am I too late to sign up f-for the trials?" she asked, a slight stutter entering her voice.

ooc: *drags self in, dark circles beneath eyes* Ok, ok, I'm here! ^___^'
Jade grinned like a thousand and one watt lightbulb when Channy joined the little congregation, but of course, to anyone who knew her, that wasn't unusual. Slowly stretching out arm as if meant to be done sneakily, she grabbed the girl and pulled her closer into a little glomp and laid her arm about her shoulder, giving her hair a tweak. "Glad to know you're tryin' out!" She laughed and grinned equally bright at the others.
Farther away she noticed Amelia with a boy she didn't know, but he had pretty hair. She liked pretty hair. Pretty hair was nice and soft. Pretty hair was pretty. She wanted to touch it. (( sure, she's a great rp-er, I see no reason why you can't be on the team ;D Once a Ravenclaw, always a Ravenclaw ^_^)) When he came closer, she tilted her head and watched as the sunlight shined on his hair.
"Preeeettty...." She cooed with large eyes, unconsciously petting Channy's hair, eliciting blue sparks and a rather wary look from her.
But luckily, more people came to distract the hair infatuated Jade. A boy had rushed at them and stopped suddenly on his broom, causing a large gust of wind to softly blast them. She shook her head, alreading beginning to take notice in their demeanors. Reckless. Shows off. With a soft smile and glowing eyes, she continued to size up the rest with a friendly expression, hoping to quell any nervousness they might have with trying to seem as unintimidating as possible. Inwardly, Jade laughed. She was a sap and she knew it.
Then another boy came up, with a much more rather anxious mein. Jade liked his glasses. They were shiny. He seemed smaller than the rest, but perhaps that was because he seemed a little shaken up by the whole affair. She liked the look about him though, he seemed to have promise. "Why of course you can! Here, try this broom on for size!" She grinned warmly at him and sent a broom his way. It was a smaller Oriental model with a smaller, fanning brush. It was an agile thing, perfect for maneuvering and ideal for spiraling with it's thinner, fanned bristles. The handle was completely covered with stickers. Obviously, it had once belonged to Jade.
Beaming next to Channy and Kelly, Jade nodded at Kelly's words, agreeing with everything. "Hmm, well, I think we can start now if you'd like...?" Just then a girl came up with a curiously dubvious expression on her face. "Well hello! Nah, of course not, you're just in time!" Holding out a hand, she gestured for her to join the others before them.
Jade turned her indigo eyes toward Kelly and raised her eyebrows, "Ready when you are, cap'n!"

((ooo...sounds like fun! I hope I am good enough!))
Amelia finally plucked up enough courage. She walked out onto the quidditch pitch. In her hand she held her broom; it was a fairly old model; her mother had wanted to replace it for many years but Amelia loved it too much.
"Am I too late?" She inquired half expecting to be turned away as she was a lycan now...

"Ah... thanks." said Ceiced. He'd read some about Quidditch, so he knew the basic approach. He placed the broom on the ground and held his hand over it. "Up." he commanded. And nothing happened. He felt heat rising to his face, and commanded again, "Up!" Luckily, this time it flew into his hand. He gulped and got on it, his hands were sweating... he wiped them off on his robes and gripped the end of the broom. Lightly he kicked off of the ground, and floated a few feet into the air. His heart jumped, and he felt almost weightless falling back to the ground. He couldn't stop himself from grinning. He clambered off and held the broom in his hands. "Hope i'm not getting ahead of myself." he murmured.

ooc: How exactly does one go about catching the snitch?
IC:
Cella smacked a hand to her forehead muttering "That's what I forgot, my broom!" Pulling her wand out from it's spot behind her ear she said "Accio Broom."
There was a loud thud in the distance as suddenly a gleaming firebolt came whizzing through the air, landing in Cella' outstretched hands.
Cella gave her broom an appreciative smile, it had taken her months to convince her father to trade her cleansweep for a firebolt. After months of hardwork, begging and pleading he finally gave in.
Holding her broom in one hand she looked back up at Kelly and Jade, waiting for their 'go ahead' before mounting her broom.

Mordecai awoke from a deep sleep. He rolled out of bed and stretched out his arms. As he did so, he let out an “AAAAAA”. He opened up the window and saw the sun shining effortlessly through the cloudless skies. Mordecai paced around the commonroom. HE knew he was forgetting something important he was supposed to do today. He eventually overheard two ravenclaw students talking. ravenclaw student 1: Why don't you go down to the quidditch pitch and try out for something? There’s nothing wrong with trying out. What’s the worst that can happen? ravenclaw student 2: I dont think im good enough and i might make myself look like a fool! Mordecai immediately ran through the common room and into the hallways. He sprinted as fast as he could and managed to get stopped by only a few teachers. Despite all of Mordecai’s set-backs, he made it to the pitch on time. He walked out unnoticed by the other students. He stood next to them and looked around trying to pass time. Mordecai: ~thinking to himself~ I hope my running wont affect how i play today...I didn’t want to use so much energy Mordecai eventually walked up to the Ravenclaw prefect Mordecai: Hello. I’m Mordecai Ivedi and I heard there were tryouts taking place today? I’m here to see if I can get the Beater position. Mordecai took a step back waiting for a response. He put his hands inside his pockets and made eye contact with the prefects.
