Mentions | Kazuo

Dee bristled when Thomas Lestrange managed to deflect her shot, although just barely. At least he'd had to scramble a little, and next time, she'd know what she was doing. Next time, he wouldn't be so lucky.

It got worse when he used her name to taunt her, obviously not fooled by her (poor) attempt at denying it. It felt like it caused all her hair to stand up at the roots in disgust, from the fine hair on her arms to the long brown locks currently covered by her hat. Lucky for him, she couldn't actually cut people with her glare, but that didn't keep her from trying. "Keep it up and I might actually shoot you one day," she snapped back. He'd gained the upper hand today, and they both knew it. She wasn't even sure that scoring a point against him would be enough to make up for that.

The puck bounced away from the goalie, wobbling back over the ice, and Dee spotted the opportunity to perhaps take another shot right away. He couldn't keep this up, right? Surely, he wasn't actually a good player, this was all just luck.

Eyes on the puck, Dee pushed herself forward, but she wasn't the only one on her team who had spotted it. No one from Team Red seemed to be reacting to the puck at all, though, and she gave the nearby players a confused look. Had they just... given up? Or maybe they all just disliked their goalie so much that they wanted Team Blue to score? Honestly, she wasn't quite sure what she'd do if she was on his team, which part would win: Her spiteful wish to see him lose, or her own competitive nature. Would be a close fight, probably.

Although she'd been the first to spot it, the moment of distraction gave Kazuo the opportunity to get to the puck, just a second before she reached it, and Dee slowed down, a scowl on her face, barely managing to avoid crashing into him. Fine then, she grudgingly decided, it was his turn again. Maybe she could prove useful in other ways - like chucking her stick at Thomas Lestrange's head if he used her full name one more time.

Before she could further contemplate this rather tempting course of action, something else drew her attention. Or rather someone else. It wasn't very hard to duck out of the way, but it was rather clear that Alan had been aiming for her, with whatever intention, and she gave him a dark look. "Even you?" she asked in an injured voice, as if she was Caesar who had just been stabbed in the back by his close friend. It seemed Team Red really did have it out for her.

Dee when Thomas calls her Dealla:

"Wh-whoa," the Gryffindor yelped as he was caught by Flash who would more or less run through him with his shoulder checking him violently. He stumbled for a bit but managed to catch himself before falling victim to gravity, a bit of shock and surprise written over his face as he followed Flash with his eyes, gasping slightly. After he was over the first shock however he shook his head and forced his focus back onto the game; he would have to get back at his friend for that later, he promised himself with a excited grin forming on his face. "I'll get you back for that later," he promised all in fair game. The game was on!

Well he know that the game wouldn't be going on for too much longer as the next goal might win the game for either team as they were aiming for a best out of 3, but Alan would be there for the ride however long it would last. He liked the idea and wondered whether he should be implementing seasonal games into the numerous activities Flash and Alan could be able to do with their shared club. The opportunities were practically endless and he was aware that all it took was a bit of creativity and the brain to figure out how it could be done.

@Jake Morris @Henry Knight

Willow's friendship senses were tingling, this time for giving love to a fellow badger. Jake Morris was a Hufflepuff that she had interacted with every now and again, and someone she considered dear to her from his soft nature and similar love for his stuffed animals. She had a fond memory of herself, him, and Mildred all playing with their stuffed animals together in the common room. The idea of exploring Atlantis together still bright in her mind. When she heard the whisper on the wind of him needing a hug it seemed like her turned around just in time to be taken down to the ground by Jake who was covered in pillows. The wind was knocked out of her a bit from the land on her back onto the ice, but the front of her was just fine with the cushioning provided from the other badger.

After recovering her breath she couldn't help but giggle and give him a quick and tight squeeze. "Jakey you doing ok?" She had a feeling neither of them really had anticipated the intensity that was this game. The two of them were much better suited for cuddling like this. It wasn't long before Henry skated over and helped her up, she gladly took his hand up. "Just fine! Thank you for helping me up." As she got her bearings once more, she brushed herself off. She gave a soft smile to Jake, "You're doing great Jake, we got this." While they weren't on the same team, she wanted to encourage him just the same.

At this point Lydia was practically useless. She had decided to try and tackle someone in order to slow the opponent team down in some way, since scoring was clearly not her thing. But as she skated towards the nearest student, ready to tackle them and hopefully knock them down, she realised that her vision was way more blurry than what she thought it was.

The impact, again, never came; her skates kept moving on the ice, but she never met anybody in her tracks. Feeling more and more frustrated with herself, Lydia took a moment to let herself take a proper breath through the endless snot that had decided to just lay on her face. The feeling of it was just gross, everything was feeling slimy and snotty, and that only made her nausea worse, as if the light head wasn't doing enough already.

As she stood there, observing the game unfold in front of her, the Hufflepuff girl wondered how long she still had until the inevitable moment in which she would have fainted and fallen with her bum on the ice. It wouldn't have been long, or at least she assumed so, since her head was getting lighter and lighter, the shivers were making her shake like a leaf, and if that wasn't enough, the snot and the nausea were making it hard to breathe. But beside all of this, Lydia wouldn't have given up; she would have kept fighting for her team until the end.

Once she felt like her head was feeling "heavy" enough, Lydia looked around once again, before she decided her next move.

The longer the game lasted, the more certain the players seemed on their skates, speeding across the ice in sure strides. Or well, at least most of them did. Team Blue's resident bulldozer, Flash Holmwood, was likely on his way to run over another member of Team Red, when he caught on a groove in the ice, indicating the deteriorating ice quality caused by the twelve kids aimlessly crossing paths on it. Flash barely had the time to realise what was happening before he stumbled forward, landing awkwardly on his hockey stick. Ouch.

Kazuo Shoots to Score.
Accuracy: [d20: 2] + 5 = 7
Wisdom: [d20: 8] + 8 = 16
Thomas successfully guards. The puck rebounds and is free to snatch.

It was starting to seem the game was caught in a never-ending loop. Team Blue had possession of the puck, attempted to score, Thomas Lestrange managed another heroic save, Team Blue snatched the puck back. What was Red's defense even doing? Or offense, for that matter.

In another iteration of this scene, @Kazuo Shimada had managed to gain control of the puck, and made another brave attempt at shooting it into Team Red's net. However, he barely even managed to hit it with the blade of his stick, and it wobbled more than shot in direction of the goal. @Thomas Lestrange barely had to move at all - in fact, it kind of looked like he didn't move at all - for it to bounce off and slowly slide back across the ice.

Miss.

Perhaps his lack of aim had been because Kazuo had sacrificed precision for speed, in an attempt to score before the wave of players from the red team came crashing over him.

Free of the puck, he easily managed to duck out of the way when @Alan Vanes came hurtling towards him, whose momentum would carry him far past Kazuo. Perhaps Alan should have brought Tiger as a distraction.

Hit.
Ileen Strength: [d20: 6] + 3 = 9
Kazuo Strength: [d20: 12] + 4 = 16
Kazuo remains on his feet and will suffer -1 Acc for his next action.

But the danger was not averted just by dodging one badly aimed attack from a first-time skater. While @Ileen Knight might have originally been planning to steal the puck, she didn't let the fact that it had left Kazuo's possession deter her in the slightest, happily taking the opportunity to repay the Hufflepuff for the horrible crimes he had committed against her. With Kazuo slightly distracted, she braced herself and executed a decent approximation of a hockey check, although her strength did not suffice to push him off his feet.

Hit.

Kazuo Strength: [d20: 4] + 4 = 8
Kazuo falls and takes 90 damage. He will require a full action to stand up.

And still, he was not in the clear. A little bit behind Ileen but just as determined, @Willow Anderson was heading towards her house mate, who, at this point slightly winded and off-balance, did not manage to dodge the hug-happy badger. Witness accounts might differ on what happened next: Had Willow abandoned her mission to distribute hugs and decided to properly tackle Kazuo down, or had the first year's aversion to hugs led him to willingly kiss the ice in order to escape her extended arms? Only the two of them knew the true story.

Cassandra attempts to bodycheck Dealla.

Evasion: [d20: 20] + 9 = 29
Miss.

@Cassandra Ironwoods was keeping their head in the game and their eyes... not on the puck, but at least on their opponents. Perhaps sensing that Dealla would make another grab for the puck once it was free on the ice, the Slytherin decided to stop the Ravenclaw Duelling captain before she'd have the opportunity to. Sadly, Dealla proved elusive once again, spinning out of the way with astonishing agility and perhaps a little too much showmanship. Dee, was that pirouette really necessary?

Flash: [d20: 17] + 3 = 20

Flash

Reducio

Flash gets up from the Ground.

@Flash Holmwood was forced to take a small break from bodychecking members of Team Red to climb back to his feet after taking a rather hard fall. Perhaps he'd take a breath and realise the pointlessness of violence, turn to a more peaceful path - or he'd be right back it in a moment. Time only would tell.

Jake vs Alan

Jake attempts to steal from Alan. Alan does not have the puck, steal turns into Bodycheck.
Accuracy: [d20: 13] + 8 = 21
Evasion: [d20: 8] + 11 = 19
Hit.
Jake Strength: [d20: 9] + 1 = 10
Alan Strength: [d20: 4] + 2 = 6
Alan is marshmallowed to the ground, takes 50 damage. Getting up will require a full action.

Resident pillowman @Jake Morris was proving to be a surprisingly effective marshmallow of attack, now that he had learned how to stay on his feet for more than a couple seconds at a time... although his intentions might be closer to collecting hugs than winning the game. His target this time was the only Gryffindor on the field, a boy two years older, who people might expect to be physically superior to the small badger. And yet, Jake succeeded where Flash had failed, the force of his bodycheck (or his love) sending Alan crashing to the ground. No matter his intention, Jake was doing Team Blue proud.

Opeila

Reducio

Opeila takes off her blindfold.

It was a good thing that Team Blue's half of the field had been deserted for the past couple of minutes, as @Opeila Winters would not have been in any condition to guard her net, considering the blindfold she had conjured over her own eyes. Apparently already sick of her new fashion accessory, she reached up to hastily pull it off, only to see that... there was still no one coming her way. She'd have all the time in the world to pick a new target, and try again.

Wisdom: [d20: 15] + 10 = 25, success

Lydia is in puck possession.

Oddly, the puck was again not getting much attention. There were a couple players who hadn't really done anything useful in the past few moments - but they also didn't seem to be inclined to do anything useful now. @Dealla Prince was perhaps simply preoccupied with showing off her superior maneuverability on the ice - she might actually be more talented at figure skating than ice hockey? - while @Henry Knight seemed to have spent the past few minutes in a daze, not really doing much of anything.

@Lydia Cooper, despite looking very much ready to collapse into a graceful heap on the ice, was the only one who showed enough presence of mind to skate after the slowly wobbling disk, easily gaining control. Would she manage to end this game before the curse took her?

Ileen skated over the surface of the frozen lake, feeling more secure on her skates now and determined to steal the puck from her new favorite Hufflepuff. Apparently, she was not the only one who had chosen the boy as their target.
Alan Vanes, the older Gryffinor who had helped Ileen to save Liv, rushed towards Kazuo as well, a little bit faster than her. When had he joined the game? Ileen had been too busy fighting with Kazuo and Henry to notice the new teammates. However, in this moment it didn’t matter if Alan was on her team or her opponent. She wanted to reach Kazuo first. Stealing the puck would be the right way to repay him for his crimes and tackles earlier and she was not happy that someone else wanted to take that from her.
Unfortunately, neither of them was fast enough anyway. Kazuo managed to shoot barely one second before Alan crossed his way and nearly hit him.

Hopefully Lestrange would get it together and save it, otherwise the game would be over. And even worse - Kazuo would score this triumph.
Out of the corner of her eye, she just saw the puck bounce. She couldn't tell if Lestrange had deflected it or if Kazuo's aim was simply bad. It all happened in a split second before she herself, unable and admittedly unwilling to slow her pace, slammed into the Hufflepuff. Though she had sworn never to harm anyone, this was surely allowed. She had not achieved her original goal, but tackling him back gave her a grim satisfaction. “Oh, sorry! Have not seen you standing there”, she mirrored his unhonest apology from before and made a face at him, trying to stay on her own feet. Unfortunately, he did too. But not for long.
As the Hufflepuff was still struggling from her tackle, Willow, who probably also had her eyes on the puck, smashed into the boy. At least, it looked like it. Whatever had happened there, he ended up on the ground.
A mean smirk spread over Ileen’s face and she actually stopped and turned around to look down on him. That felt good. Although it had not been her who had sent him on the ground, she would take partial credit for the result. She had thrown him off balance and Willow had finished the job.

A warm and friendly smile was given to the Hufflepuff girl. Ileen had felt good vibes from her before, hence she had tried to cheer her up when Lestrange had been picking on her. Now, she was absolutely sure. This girl was a friend. “Nice job!”

He didn’t have much time. Puck on his stick, heading toward the net, he knew he was a target. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Alan and, desperate to get a shot off before the older boy could try to steal the puck from him, he drew back and slapped the puck toward the net. Unfortunately, his aim was not nearly as good as his first shot and Thomas barely had to move to block it. ”Tch.” He clicked his teeth in irritation as he gracefully spun out of Alan’s path. Unfortunately, Alan wasn’t the only Red targeting Kazuo and as he scanned the ice for the rebound of his failed attempt, Ileen swooped in for her vengeance, knocking into him. He turned to see her making a face at him as she mock-apologized and snorted in amusement, giving her a grin.

“Try not to fall again~” He taunted back but those words would come back to haunt him as yet another Red decided he would make a good target. This time it was Willow targeting him with her patented hug-tackle technique. Could the pale Japanese boy grow paler? Quite possibly as the thought of being hugged to the ground drew a strangled and mildly panicked shout. “Ie!” Not that Willow was likely to understand what he had shouted, nor was she likely to stop even if she had heard him. They were in the middle of a hockey game after all and Willow was just playing the game, albeit in her own hug-happy way. As she knocked into him, he resigned himself to his fate, grimacing as he hit the ice. Defeated by a hug, how embarrassing.

At least Lydia had managed to grab the rebound.
