And almost immediately, the caca hit the proverbial oscillator.

Stephen momentarily believed there was some success in strategy on both sides, but that was short lived. He saw Kaya get cobbed almost from the get go, but she seemed to shake it off. He winced knowing that elbow hit had to hurt, but probably not as much as the bludger hit she took right after it. He had an "Oh, crap!" moment as the impact caused her to fold in on herself seconds before her head lolled to the side and she tumbled off her broom.

His eyes were nowhere else on the field of battle in those moments as he leaned over his broom and swooped over to catch her deftly before she hit the ground. She landed with a satisfying thud in his arms. "Kaya," he said as he gently jostled her in the space between his arms, hearing only a mumbled response in return. "Kaya!" he repeated with more urgency. "Wakey, wakey. Open your eyes, girl. We're still in this," but he whispered imperceptibly to himself, "maybe." Then louder for her benefit: "We need our Seeker. You can dream about climbing the Snakewood tree later."

More mumbling whirred past his ears as he weaved and dodged out of harm's way. He thought he heard her trying to string together words, but he was busy listening for swooshes that might signal an ambush.

Kaya was conscious, but barely. She was holding her head up now, which was no longer lolling back and forth like a rag doll. He settled her in front — not ideal, but better than watching her tumble off the back. Then he steered them away from the fray.

As he got them clear and managed to buy a little time, he looked down and saw Theo, unconscious, laying eerily still on the field. He breathed in deeply and hissed it all out. Just then he saw Phylicia, Louca, and Amber do a beautiful pincer maneuver on someone, likely the person who took Theo out. Stephen had just started to cheer when some girl from the other team swept in and saved the guy.

"Damn." The referee's shrill whistle from across the field shuffled his nerves like holding a bad hand would. He hissed again as Phylicia was called out of the game and started her penalty lap. "I'll see your damn and raise you a double damn."

Oh, but the aerial hit parade was not yet over. Unfortunately. Miles took his shot at their Seeker, and it was all set to take her out when another girl, three years his junior no less, flew interception and beat it back at Miles.

After taking one look at that, Newton would’ve dropped his apple and rewritten the laws of motion on the spot.

Stephen could not believe his eyes when he saw Miles absorb the bludger, but he was still on his broom and that was great. Still, looking at the one-sided havoc created upon his team, one thing was clear: the caca had been oscillated, fertilizing disappointment in its wake. He shook his head, refusing to let it take root. The match was not over. Not yet.

"Come on, Kaya, give me a sign, something, anything."

As he continued to keep Kaya from more harm, his thoughts strayed, just for a heartbeat, to the crowd. Somewhere down there, EmmaLee was watching this whirlwind unfold. Maybe with pride. Maybe with dread. He’d wanted to shine for her today. But not like this. Whatever this was — definitely not this.

London Quidditch Stadium, UK

Well that hurt.

Not much more than that went through the Castelobruxo keeper's mind as he found himself on the wrong end of a bludger. Pain followed -- the kind that would leave a bruise for days if untreated -- but he was still on his bruise. Better yet, he had successfully defended his end of the quidditch pitch. No quaffle found its way past him and for now that was enough. The game continued.

Action: As strategized.

STATS

Reducio

CHARACTER STATS
Stamina 10 - Evasion 17 (18) - Strength 5 (6) - Wisdom 10 (11) - ArcPower 5 - Accuracy 17 (19)

ABILITIES
Intuition
The auto-hit and auto-evade abilities do effect quidditch moves such as targeting other players with bludgers and evading attacks.

Fate Spinning
This can be used up to three times in a Quidditch game. Note, the use of Fate Spinning must be stated by the player when they send their actions. For example: "If I am hit with a bludger, use fate-spinning to re-roll my evasion."

BROOM
Nimbus 1700
(+2 accuracy, +1 evasion, +1 wisdom, +1 strength)

English | Français

The game started—Quentin got straight to work. He chased down a bludger and sent it flying toward the other team with a resounding thwack! He spent a moment too long admiring his work (a girl flying off her broom), and he was hit square in the back with the bludger's brother.

"Ooof," was all he could manage to groan.

First-String Beater
stamina 15 | evasion 7 | strength 15 17 | wisdom 5 | arcane power 6 | accuracy 15 17
Abilities: Calming Presence (affecting teammates!), Muggle Condition, Fearless, Lovely Creature
Broom: Cleansweep 7 (special ability below)

Reducio

In the role of Beater, if you critically hit with a bludger, instead of doing double-damage you do 2.5x damage. If you critically fail with your bludger attempt to hit, rather than having your bludger randomly target another user (including yourself or an ally) the bludger cannot target you on a critical fail (but it can still target your allies). On a retarget, there is a random roll for target and then a fresh accuracy roll.

Kavi had been intent on cheering on his team, but a shrill scream from his youngest sister had him turning his head for just a moment, before he heard a whistle and saw Phylicia going for her penalty lap. "I turn my head for one minute, and I miss it," he muttered in his native Kannada, shaking his head. He wasn't even on the pitch yet, he wasn't sure why Khara was yelling so loudly for him, and she'd seen plenty of his previous games. Several years' worth, actually. He ignored her in the stands, turning his focus back towards the game, even more tense than he was previously, muttering encouragements they couldn't hear nor understand under his breath.

The chasers were busy scoring goals for their respective teams, with Louca managing to score a stunning thirty points and Martin not being too far behind with a goal of twenty. “Looks like the chasers are doing a GREAT JOB!” Ethan yells into the microphone. “Louca just scored a thirty and Martín is hot on his trail with a twenty!!!”

BEATERS
────────────────────────

As soon as Kaya and Stephen think they've seen a glimpse of the snitch, Quentin swings his bat and manages to hit the bludger directly at them, and Kaya, who's on the broom, is knocked off with Stephen. Luckily, Amber catches Kaya before she falls to the ground. “Quentin just took an opportunity when he saw one, huh?”

Miles catches sight of Martín, who is currently focused on scoring for his team, and decides to throw a bludger racing in his direction, hoping to cause some serious damage. “Ouch, that must've hurt!”

Having seen Quentin knock Kaya and Stephen off of their broom, Alphonse reacts quickly and uses his own bat to hit the bludger straight back at Quentin. Martín tumbles off his broom, but Katherine manages to save him. “OOOOOOOHHH, looks like Alphonse isn't messing around either!!!”

Zoya offering a slight grin to both Kat and Raphael and a high five to Raphael as she flew passed him to complete her penalty lap, a genuine grin forming on her face as she finished it. Now it was time to actually play, because she was going to try her best now to either not get caught or actually score the team points.

The Russian's hair blew into her face as she looked at the rest of the team around the field. They could do this, they definitely had the spirit for it.

For all the pressure of this big game with its bright lights, international rosters, and older students, it was—at least after Peter had taken care of that bludger—kind of boring. Somewhere out here was that glimmer of gold, but so far it had seemed completely elusive. As she squinted she expected another bludger—or worse, a player—to come swooping out of the air and attack her.

But they didn't come.

Instead, the game went on almost without her. And suddenly, she wondered if this whole game was just a microcosm of her whole magical experience: girl, lost and alone. With a sigh, she didn't want to get stuck in that unfortunate familiarity. No, things would get better. They had to get better—

“OOOOOOOHHH," roared the announcer, stirring her spirit. Her head turned just in time to watch the ball collapse into Quentin, who was not looking great. In fact, being seeker, that's how she should look.

But she didn't. She didn't have a scratch on her. And that was when she remembered she wasn't alone. They'd been protecting her—Peter quite literally, but the others too. "Courage, Quentin!" she called to him, but in many ways this too was a call to herself. She needed to focus, especially because it looked like Kaya, despite being saddled on someone else's broom, still had a keen eye. That put her behind, but at least she was no stranger to that circumstance.

While the previous pincher movement had not worked out as well as they had wanted, Louca decided to take a quick chance to grab the quaffle and maybe get some points, hoping that Stephen and Kaya might be able to spot the snitch and grab it quickly. He made his movements fast but after the first scoring when no one blocked him, it almost felt too easy, and with that he scored twice more.
