Week Name/Date/Time: 'The Season Begins' / Tuesday, November 29 / 3:09 pm
Location: Quidditch Pitch
Open To: Phillip, Blaze, Gryffindor Team
Currently Involving: Jackie et al
Heavy snow and sleet? Pshaw! Quidditch stopped for nothing. Well, almost nothing - but Jackie sincerely doubted someone would cast the Dark Mark in the sky just to scare the Gryffindor Quidditch team from practicing. Dressed in her heavier, warmer (thank goodness for wool and warming charms), and bulkier Quidditch uniform, Jackie tucked her pigtails under her weatherproof cap and snapped her goggles into place. Sure, she looked like a funky eskimo, but when did she ever care about her looks?
She truded up to the Pitch with her broom, dragging the trunk behind her as it paved a path from the castle to the stands. It was hard to make out the posts, but Jackie didn't think that was entirely necessary. Any good flyer, and one that practiced as much as she did, could gauge the distance in their mind quite accurately. So without a second thought, she opened the trunk and unleashed one of the bludgers. Luckily, the bludgers were dark in color, and could actually be seen through the sheet of white. She grabbed the Quaffle, mounted her broom, and took off. Hopefully, the rest of her team would arrive soon.
