Unit 0: Starting Line
Clark, several days prior, had put up posters advertising for joinees to join. The posters were advertising a race that was not for the faint of heart, but for squashing the firsties. Clark was just about as strong as the rest of them, but it was like he was almost a bit stronger on his broom that he found in the corridors outside of the lavatory.

Whoever left it was a dunce, and it was a free magical stick with a brush at the end that he would profit.

Outside, out on the broom racing track, or at least, out in the grounds, there were all types of horrors. It was almost.. fantastic. It was like it was set up by a guy who really knew how to torment people, and Clark must've taken notes. He held his Shooting Star and hovered in the air, his brows arched and he looked around, hoping to see someone else join him.

All he did was give them the day of the week that he was going to do this and nothing really extreme. His grip on the handle was rough, and tight because he hadn't been on a broom since he played Quidditch in 2022 as a Chaser for Hufflepuff, and given that it was now 2025?

He hoped his one class in flying paid off because this was terrifying. Terrifying, not just because he barely showed to class, but because he knew that he was also putting himself in the line of fire where he was likely to be thwacked by the whomping willow without needing to be anywhere near. He had that type of luck, and at the moment, he did not have any other broomsticks, so he needed to survive this and ensure that his broom wasn't broken.

terrible presence

Out of the three sports offered at Hogwarts, broom racing appeared to be the one with the most potential for devastation. Although Quidditch, with its solid iron bludgers, and duelling, with its barrage of splendiferous spells, had ample room for disaster, neither offered the strategic intrigue that every small, yet very much moving, part of broom racing did. Potions, spells and flying on a broom already took much concentration, but alongside a rather antagonistic ambience, racing meant all partakers had to take extra caution with each movement or risk grievous harm.

Of course, as this was taking place on school grounds, Livia feared little for 'grievous harm', as, certainly, any productive nurse could cure such harm in a heartbeat.

Livia had only decided to endure this endeavour due to boredom during the first few weeks of classes, as well as a general wish to participate in a broom sport to learn more about flying, given that she was captaining Quidditch. Even as she arrived at the designated meeting spot, she contemplated whether or not she would be able to apply techniques from racing to Quidditch practices.

Upon arriving, she nodded at the short boy (Clark), who she assumed had organised the race, and otherwise mounted her broom without much observable emotion. She stared forward at the track before her and narrowed her eyes. Although she had never seen a broom racing track previously, certainly, they were not all so obstacle-heavy? How was one meant to race if one had to contend with obstacles the entire time? Perhaps she had simply not paid enough attention...

════════════After a long week, Leo was excited for the weekend to finally be here. Earlier in the week he had seen some posters hanging up for a broom racing event. It hadn’t really been something Leo was interested in at first but he was inevitably dragged into it by Cece. He was pretty sure he was going to regret it later since he had never done anything like it before and they had only just barely learned how to fly at the beginning of the month. Nevertheless he promised her he would join so he was going to keep that promise. Plus he had that competitiveness in him that wasn’t letting him back down from the challenge.

With his broom in hand, he made his way out to the grounds where everyone was meeting for this somewhat mysterious broom racing match. He looked around, not seeing anyone he recognized yet so just decided to stand off to the side by himself. Considering he was interested in quidditch maybe going through some of the trials of the race track would help him get better at focusing while flying. He mostly just hoped that he wouldn’t make a complete fool of himself in front of his friend, especially since he knew Cece would never let him live anything down if he did something embarrassing. Hopefully he could also make it through without getting too hurt but he didn’t know what was to come.

✦───── ♥ ─────✦───── ♥ ─────✦

Rosaline was on her way to the Grounds. The Scottish weather in September was quite nice. She looked around. Everything at Hogwarts was fresh to her. Even though she had heard Charles and Rowen repeating their adventures and stories so many times, the feelings were so different when she was here herself. Holding her newly purchased broom, Rosaline was so excited to compete with others using it. Her parents bought it as a gift for her first year. They wanted to encourage her to participate in Quidditch. But they probably wouldn’t, or they would expect Rosaline to be in a Broom Racing game before a Quidditch game. Broom Racing was too tempting for her. Ant sports, which involve broom and speed, would be her interest. This time, she saw the posters around the school the other day, and she immediately signed up for it.

Rosaline briskly walked to the racing track. There were two participants and their moderator for today. Their moderator seemed older than her. One of the players was a girl with dark hair who had already mounted her broom and seemed ready to start the game. Another one was Leo, a sweet boy she had met during the summer camp. Her eyes lit up as soon as she saw him. She was probably not too late. Rosaline waved to them with a bright smile on her face. Holding her broom, she came nearer to Leo and greeted, “Hey, Leo.” Rosaline looked around and observed the track; it seemed too difficult for a first-year student. A hint of nervousness struck her. Her eyes widened as she saw how long the track was and how many obstacles there were. Nonetheless, another feeling came after it. Excitement. A whole new, challenging broom racing track awaited her. She turned to Leo and said, “Whoa, I can’t wait to start the race. But I also hope we can safely get out of that.” Rosaline tucked a strand of her hair and stood there waiting for the race to start. The smile was still on her face. Was she a little nervous? Yes. Yet she liked challenges. Her wand was in the back pocket of her trousers, and her broom was in her hand. Everything was perfect right now.

notes: I will format this later

Cecilia Merrick was nothing if not a girl full of ideas. Granted, most were foolish at best and life-threatening at worst. This particular idea was sparked during a conversation she had with Leo. The pair had grown comfortable enough to slip into frequent banter and friendly competitions, so it was only natural that they discussed the broom racing posters plastered on the wall. Leo was often enthusiastic enough to go along with her silly suggestions, but she was fairly certain he was pulling her leg when he promptly accepted her proposal to join the race. Though Cecilia was the type to ignore warnings, she had yet to drag him into such a dangerous situation.

However, Leo Noxley proved to be a wizard of his word when he arrived at the grounds earlier than Cecilia. For a moment, she was too stunned to speak and her eyes simply widened as she clutched her broom. “Merlin’s beard, you actually made it,” she finally remarked before a grin stretched across her face. “I hope this will be enough of an adventure for you, Noxley,” she added with a short laugh.

Though Cecilia had never attempted to race before, she felt fairly confident that she could pass at least one obstacle. A sinking feeling in her stomach warned her that nothing could prepare her for what was to come.

coding and banner tba

Taking stairs by two, the small raven rushed down from her flock's tower and outside to an event she was about to barely make it to. She had known about the unofficial broom race for a while now. The possibility of trying out broom racing, and using her brand new broom, exciting but overshadowed by how the mere thought of a school event made her stomach flip. It took until ten minutes ago for her to make the final decision of going, the book she was reading tossed to a side as she hurriedly gathered all that she needed.

Her pockets of her coat were now stuffed with vials and potion bottles, their ocassional clinking making her feel like a christmas tree ahdorned with way too many baubles. Anxiety was sure to creep it's claws up her back whether she wanted or not, the least she could do was come prepared for the activity at hand.. or at least as prepared as an uneducated person going blind into a possibly deadly race could be.

Her small figure would come into view with cheeks dusted red, broom under her arm, and head tilted to a side as she tugged at her barely brushed hair, attempting to loosen the knots in it and twist it into braids both at the same time. By the time she got to the starting point, her efforts resulted in two surprisingly tight looking plaits, her hairstyle complete with two star-shaped pins securing her fringe.

Smile tight on her lips like a shield pulled out for protection, she managed to give a bright sounding "hi" to the present students before her throat closed off. Quietly clearing it, she mounted her broom, hoping that soon the adrenaline from flying would ease her growing unease.

Unit 0: Starting Line
And the race started, he looked around and saw that Livia and Cecilia were casting Lumos! Why? The concept was almost foreign to him, what with the idea of the wand lighting spell, when they could easily try to eradicate their enemies and crush them! So.. like he was supposed to, he cast the Jelly Brain Jinx on Cecilia, just because she seemed like she was the easiest target to pick on, and mostly because he was afraid of Livia. With Gideon, he just couldn't help but think about how handsome he looked, so if he had to cast anything he didn't want to risk disfiguring his stunning debacle of an appearance.

Unit 1: Easy Narrow Passageways [Acc DC 14]
He noted that they did not move onto the next obstacle, which he was going through. He watched Leo, Sabrina and Rosaline fly through the narrow passageway, which, if Clark had to be honest about with his personal opinion, it was not really that narrow. It was about as narrow as a riverbed after a flooding.

Of course, that was just an opinion. He noticed Sabrina and Rosaline, as well as himself, darted past Leo. Maybe Leo was slowing down for some reason, he had to be setting up a trap, there was almost no other explanation! The goblin had to mentally congratulate someone who was willing to be a goblin.

Unit 2: Easy Thorns [Acc DC 12] with Pixies (x5)
But almost as if some sort of hellbent fortune, he rode through the thorns but he realized something was wrong as he felt something pull hard against his broom, and he couldn't resist it. He was jerked off, and he fell to the ground. He had to go get his broom back, or else he'd torch this entire race and make it as dangerous as he could possibly make, just to push it to the extremes.

He watched Rosaline engage in some sort of a tug of war with those blue thingies that were talked about in class at one point, and win. But someone did lose their wand in the meantime, they took Sabrina's.

Unit 3: Near Impossible Vines [Str DC 24]
Clark watched as Rosaline moved on to the vines, and that wasn't quite as sweet as her ending could've been, as she ended up getting trapped. Good, if this is what it meant to try and get an advantage in the race, then that was what he was going to try to take advantage of, he just needed to get his broom.

A quick glance around confirmed what she had feared: she recognized none of the faces around her. Not even from passing. Swallowing down a whine she turned her gaze towards the track ahead. If only she had decided to join earlier, maybe then she would've brought one of her friends along. Their presence alone would help untangle the mess her thoughts were now creating behind her unfocused eyes. But then again, there were only two people she would've invited, and the last time she gave a broom to one of them, they threw it out of a window just to avoid flying on it. Regardless of if her second, not deathly afraid of heights, friend did or didn't agree in her made up scenario, it didn't effect the reality that the small raven now found herself in.

Jaw set and body tense, her fingers drummed against the handle of her broom, firmly curling around it the moment the race started. Oh thank god. As soon as she could, she bolted, finally having something else to think about, or preferably, having to focus to a point when her mind blanked. Her easy passage through the first obstacle brought an unexpected smile to her lips, shoulders relaxing. Having an activity to focus on while in a group setting truly helped to ease her anxiety, especially if it went well - which this one seemed to. Or at least for the first few minutes, then she got to the thorns. Said obstacle turned out to not be a threat at all, but due to her concentration on it, she overlooked the flashes of blue circling around her, until one of them got to her wand. "Oi, give it back!" the young witch reached out towards the little being that just giggled and tossed her loot somewhere onto the track.

Despite her initial aversion to the idea of barrelling about the grounds on a broom, Livia swiftly acquired the knowledge that she could do far more than simply rush towards the course. A good thing this was – after all, deliberation could provide new perspectives and understanding that she otherwise would have lacked. She imagined casting might result in quite the difficult if attempting while swerving away from perilous obstacles; thus, Livia glanced about her and, after ascertaining that no projectiles were being launched in her direction, she simply waved her wand before kicking off. 'Lumos.'

Obviously, the spell functioned as intended. Livia did not even smile at the spell's success, instead observing her wand to ensure it did not appear as if the light would go out. Then, she held back just a moment longer, eyeing the track before her. It appeared that the track converged to become quite small, which, given her decent height, would have been a concern if not for Livia's bony, nimble limbs. As much as she yearned not to snap her arms in half, she mused that perhaps such an occurrence would be suitable if it preceded victory.

Whatever came after the passageway, Livia could not quite be certain. Her focus lay upon the other youths that had lingered at the starting line – a red-haired girl had seemed to have the same idea she had, although, to the fox-like youth's misfortune, it had not gone quite as successfully as Livia's own attempt. She remained moderately wary of the older-looking boy. Although he had performed no action yet, she knew better than some others might that it was a perfectly sane course of action to simply lie in wait, as she herself had been doing. She would then direct her focus once more to the course ahead of her in hopes of properly preparing before she had to overcome it herself.
