2025/26 Stage 2 Hufflepuff vs Ravenclaw: Match 8

Another year, another duel, but a completely new set of teammates which Vera anticipated. She watched the roster change as the weather changed. Tatiana, Vera was somewhat familiar with having been on the same team for unofficial Quidditch where Vera was her second-string Keeper. Alex, on the other hand, was more of a new face and name.

Despite this being her second duel, Vera's nerves were no different to the last match. On the opposite side was Avis Marlong, a duellist Vera watched at the last stage, and Avis was an absolute beast. No amount of preparation was going to be enough against them, Vera feared. But she still stepped forward as Aodhan said her name and sighed.

Action: as strategized

Alright, this is it, She thought to herself before standing tall and proud in front of the Ravenclaws. Actually participating in a duel felt like battling against the kraken one on one, this felt nothing like the duel she'd had with Mikey and Amelia.

Maybe that was different because it was unofficial and she could just pass it off as ‘playing around’. She looked around her teammates; Verity, whom she'd played Quidditch with, and Alex, was it?, she wasn't so sure, but he was also a fellow first year. And across from them, was second year and two first years, all whom she was sure had so much more experience than she did. She's so screwed.

On to duel number two, Aislin was happy to say that she knew what she was doing this time and that she was several centimeters taller, according to her mam's markings on their doorframe growth chart. She didn't think that contributed much of anything to someone's duelling performance, other than making them a marginally bigger target, but in her opinion, it made her more intimidating. Between her height and her caterpillar-striped socks, the Hufflepuffs must be absolutely quaking.

This time around, she knew getting set on fire really hurt and pretty much any spell was disorienting and that there might not be anything cooler than watching your storm cloud strike your opponent, though she was open to discovery. At least as a moderator, she was taking a few pointers from Aodhan's colorful hair and contagious energy.

As a final difference, she had entirely different teammates. Nicholas had left the duelling team -- probably the right decision with how stressed he'd seemed the whole time -- and she'd been separated from Maisie by random chance, which was a bit sad but not so unfortunate when she still saw her plenty at practice. Now she had Ally, one of her year mates, and Avis, mentally dubbed Avis II, purely because she'd met her second. She wasn't sure which had actually come first, by birthdate or whatever else. Regardless, Avis II was a duellist and a good one, at that -- or, at least, she'd won her last duel, which was more than Aislin could say. She didn't know everything about duelling yet, including what it felt like to leave on your feet.

Past 12:30 in the Afternoon.

From his position in the room, Aodhan gleefully watched as spells started to fly.

One of the hufflepuffs—Tatiana—launched an attack anyone could recognize if they passed first year charms. Unfortunately for her, it seemed a case of nerves caused the spell to veer in a completely different direction. Or, Aodhan assumed that was the case, since it was aimed initially at Ally just to swerve over to Aislin. Thankfully, the young ravenclaw had enough awareness to dodge. She didn't stop there, though, as she quickly retaliated with a Flipendo at Verity, who was also no slouch and quickly moved out of the way.

"Amazing! What an incredible back and forth from our competitors!" he exclaimed, practically buzzing with excitement.

The action kept coming in the form of Ally who sent her own Flipendo towards Alex, the only person on the piste... not doing much of anything... huh. The boy clearly tried to move last minute, just to get struck by the attack anyway. It caused Aodhan to lean forward and squint.

"What the—Alex, buddy, what are you doing?" he asked with a lifted brow. And perhaps he forgot moderators needed some semblance of tact, or maybe he just didn't care. "This is a duel, bro, not the peanut gallery. Stop wussing out before you get knocked out!"

Elsewhere, Verity had decided to it was time to add onto the battlefield. From her wand came a cloud of fog that descended over Avis and Aislin, obscuring them from vision. But right as the fog started to swallow them up, Avis swiftly cast a spell that sent Verity tumbling to the ground, limbs completely locked up.

"Yooooo!" Aodhan shouted just to suddenly clear his throat. "I mean, that was astounding! Right before the fog of doom and despair could settle, Avis paralyzed Verity! You can't get this kind of action anywhere else, folks!"

This spell had been both a bane and a boon the last time she used it. She wasn't entirely sure it worked in their favour previously, but well, it hadn't backfired massively so it had to have worked even a little bit, no?

Vera had just conjured the smoke when a flash of light came over her and her limbs seized up. Unable to move, she hit the floor with a resounding thud! and an internal wince. The combined shock from her head down to her tailbone was going to linger long after this match.

Action: as strategized

The spell had worked, but unfortunately was a critical miss, therefore it ricochetted instead to the other first-year ravenclaw instead of her original target, Ally, as they had originally planned, and the spell still missed the second time.

Another good thing, also, was that nobody had directed a spell to her, but, not so good for other teammates. Verity had performed an excellent Nebulus against Aislin and Ally, which hit them squarely. On the other hand, Alex, had not moved at all; hopefully next round he would as Verity was now petrified.
