HUFFLEPUFF v RAVENCLAW - WINTER 2025

┏ ┓ Pericles strained to hear the cheeky commentary of their mal- benevolent referee, intending to use Vale's narration to keep track of those behind him, though he could hardly process her words. Something about Flobberworms. Wind roared in his ears, pulse and thoughts coursing at an ecstatic pace. His eyes darted ahead in hypervigilant search of obstacles. They had rocketed through passages and pigeons, winds and grasping thorns, even zipped past the Whomping Willow before it could so much as react. He and Dee made for formidable opponents, but together, they were a force to be reckoned with. Their slingshot maneuvers propelled them past the other racers with an efficiency that was nothing short of astonishing, resulting in the ultimate payout of a side-by-side win. Pear remembered to breathe again as their triumph was broadcasted, head lulling back with a sigh sent towards the clouds. He had been elated just to join the team, winning his first match was nothing short of a silver lining. His cheeks were tinged and hair was wild, blood trickling from a slice on his ear where he hadn't completely cleared a branch, yet the eagle's adrenaline rendered him numb to any injuries. His grin was brighter than usual as he hit Dee with a ceremonial fist bump, lingering on as he coasted by the stands on his victory lap. He reached to high-five any Ravenclaw supporters he passed, waiting for the rest of their team to join them before congratulating the lot.┗ ┛

22 January 2025 - Hufflepuff vs. Ravenclaw
It was no surprise to any of her teammates, most likely, that given the abysmal start to the race for the badgers, they did not come out victorious. She had to give credit where credit was due -- the Eagles raced a match of almost surgical precision. It was no fun to lose, of course, but that was part of learning and growing and becoming better.
She was in Unit 14, having successfully passed at least a couple of birbs, when the not-so-surprising announcement from Vale rang out that the Eagles had landed...(yes, pun definitely intended)... a win. AngelFyre knew she had told Simon she would wait for him at the FINISH line, but everything in her told her to turn around and fly back to wherever he was. She knew he would not be happy with any of it, but he would be okay with all of it. His killer smile would likely grace his face in less than a hour's time if she knew her fellow, and maybe even sooner than that.
Still, the urge to fly with him along the rest of the track and cross the FINISH line together burned strongly within her. They had never crossed that line together in an official race as he was always there waiting for her or vice versa, but today that would all change. Today was as good a day as any to make that happen. They may not cross it triumphantly, but they would not cross it completely defeated either... in spirit at least.
ReducioOOC: I usually respond to the last race post much sooner, but life has been busy. Just wanted to thank @Vale Ashwood for the moderations and tell the Eagles that you guys flew a seriously impressive race. Well done all of you! @Pericles Dralt @Dealla Prince @Ari Gwild @Paige Mallary @Brookline Quinn @Aurora Ranvier and @Zach Zaphiere
... and to @Simon Kincaid![]()
