Welcome to the Hufflepuff team, Gabe! You'll be starting as a Keeper-Chaser on the reserve team, but we'll do our very best to make sure that you get to play at least some of the time, so don't worry about being a reserve. When people graduate at the end of next year, there would hopefully be a spot on the main team for you.
Anyway, excellent choice of positions - they'll be very useful! - and thank you for auditioning! Your very amusing audition post is enclosed below... please could you now delete it from the Quidditch Auditions thread for me? Failing that a staffie will delete it for you, but as I am now not a staffie I can't do these simple tasks anymore. Thankfully I do play Madam Hooch so I can at least go and modify the House Team Roster to put you on there!
Please go and introduce yourself to everyone in the team owl! (which is simply entitled 'Hufflepuff!')

Name of Character: Gabriel (Gabe) Javna
House: Hufflepuff

First Desired Position: Keeper
Second Desired Position: Chaser
“O god.... What am I doing?” Gabe said asking himself just what he was thinking then his thoughts turned to how he ended up on the Quidditch field playing his first game. “I can't believe that idiot talked me into this.” He said as he hovered on his broom right in front of the goals. He watched as his team fought over the Quaffle, which was now in the hands of Ravenclaw. Gabe loved Quidditch and playing it, especially when he had his favorite role as keeper but this was different. This just wasn't some game for fun, this was a real game where a victory or lose meant more then who got bragging rights at the end of the day. To say he was nervous was an understatement, he was down right frightened. He didn't want to make a fool of himself or worse, hurt the Hufflepuff team. Gabe just weaved around the goals on his broom as he kept an eye on where the Quaffle and Bludgers were.
“So far so good.” Gabe muttered as he kept hovering around the goals, so far the Quaffle hadn't come close to the Hufflepuff goal posts once and the Bludgers were off after other people. He knew he just jinxed himself and now here was the proof, one of the Ravenclaw Chasers was headed right his way with the Quaffle in hand. Gabe was panicked for a second till the Quaffle was stolen back by another Hufflepuff chaser. He breathed a sigh of relief and then went back to monitoring the goals and the game. The game was going very well actually, Hufflepuff was up and the Ravenclaw Seeker hadn't seen the Snitch yet. He was happy to not have done much in the whole game, everyone seemed to be covering him from doing anything stupid.
Gabe had been eying the Quaffle as it seemed to be making it's way closer and closer to the Hufflepuff goal posts. This time he could see as it was passed from Ravenclaw Chaser to Chaser that he was differently going to have to do something this time. He couldn't just hope and pray for another teammate to save him and they were coming to fast for them to save him at the moment anyway. “Please go away, please go away.” He chanted as he got more nervous as they got closer to him, he could see the Chaser was getting ready to throw it into one of the goals. He watched as the Quaffle left their hands and went for the very top goal, one thing ran through Gabe's head as he watched the Quaffle flew thrown the air. “Don't screw up!” Was the last thing Danny had said before he when up to the stadium seats and gabe hane gone to the field for the game. Just that thought replaced his nervousness with something else, the urge to show up Danny and win. Gabe pulled up on his broom as hard as he could and flew up hoping to reach the Quaffle in time before it hit the goal. “I”ll show that idiot!” He yelled not realizing he was speaking out loud.
