like a bird.
starter for @mmyuanlan !
the wind whips through pip’s hair as he whizzes across the quidditch pitch, circling around and slowly coming to land beside a familiar figure on the ground. after most training sessions pip challenges yuanlan to races, more-so for the fun of it, the adrenaline of racing through the nearby trees and around the goal posts. it’s a nice way to wind down, and on their way home they get to catch up, pip always interested in gathering any gossip he can get his hands on.
today is no different. the sky’s darkening, night nearing in as he lands and shoots yuanlan a smile. “you ready?” he asks, brushing his hair out of his eyes as he watches the other team members leave the pitch, heading off to end their day however they please. “it’s cold up there.” he comments, looking upwards towards the slightly cloudy sky. even though the weather isn’t perfect pip’s never been one to abandon a good race just because it might rain.
hopping back onto his broom he kicks off and hovers about a foot off the ground, eyes on yuanlan. “what route do you want to take today? through the trees first, or second?” his eyes move over to the surrounding trees, thinking of how fun it feels to weave through them, the adrenaline from almost smacking right into tree trunks making his entire body tingle and vibrate with excitement.
