A Waffle with a Quaffle [Open, come play! Come spectate and chat!]

[theboywhodied]

It's a beautiful day for soaring in the sky. At least....it's a beautiful simulated day, Cedric corrects himself. He stands in the center of a grassy field, hoops standing tall on either side. Racing brooms that will soon take to the sky with their riders are laid out in neat rows on either side of him, and a case containing the many balls of Quidditch rests at his feet.

He's exchanged the loose-fitted clothing he'd taken up after his injuries for loose-fitting yellow and black robes, and even that small change brightens his mood. Cedric Diggory is in his element. His cheerful, dangerous whirlwind of an element, the finest sport the wizarding world has to offer.

This should be a fun one to watch!

The Teams

[theboywhodied]

Cedric looked 'round at his companions, lost in thought. They didn't have enough for a full game, but there was surely something they could do. He counted the gathered players, wondering.

"There aren't enough of us for a full game. We have one Seeker, one Chaser, one Beater, and I'm not sure what the rest of you want to do, but if we had one of each position we could do something. Or maybe we could switch to Chasers and play a simple scoring game."

"I'm game for whatever," Kaya piped up, trying to seem as friendly as she could, "but it'd be really good if we could make teams to compete with each other, wouldn't it?"

"I think that's what he means," Clef explained, trying to be polite. He usually avoided correcting people on small details like this, just because most people hated being corrected. "If you remove all the other parts, the game is essentially about getting the ball into the goal... I think."

If he knew what soccer was he'd have compared it to that except in the air. Why someone stuck all those extra rules onto the game, he had no idea.

"That might be preferable, since there aren't very many of us and most of us haven't done this before."

Kaya sighed. She really hoped there would be more people, but if not, what could she do?

"Ok. I guess you're right. What's your position?"

[theboywhodied]

"Yeah, don't be shy," Cedric nodded. "I think you might make a great Seeker, though. If you want my opinion."
