Devin saw the boy's gleam of understanding, knowing that he had learned the lesson he wanted him to learn, and that was to not jump too quickly at the quaffle, or he was going to get tricked. He didn't want that to happen during a game, for some of the chasers from the other houses did indeed have the ability to perform such a shot. Aerynn did too actually. She never really showed a trick shot, but she has looked off goalies before. It really is a tool to become a great chaser. But it is most definitely a great tool for a goalie to be aware of such times. People tend to look at the target longer when they are going to go the other way, it was a common fact.
Devin then started his third and final approach, Steele obviously knowing what shot this one was going to be. He flew and straight on, high velocity path. He cocked back his right arm, and shot it. The shot was a blazer going toward the left most goal. Devin couldn't even believe its speed. He never knew he could get the quaffle to such a velocity.

Why must I be judged upon the purity of my blood?
Oh, Steele got to the ball, and even caught it, but upon contact, his hand started to sting a bit. That bloody shot hurt his hands, and as he threw the quaffle back to Devin, he looked to his hands, the color of them taking on a bright red, just about showing the tolls of the shot that had just been taken. Soon enough, the pain subsided, and Devin was at his side, congratulating him.
Will I ever be the same?

Devin had watched as Steele caught the ball in his hands, taking the impact of the hit like a man. Well, I think I know who our new keeper is. He should be at least. Devin thought to himself as he made his way over to Steele. When he got to him, Devin gave him a pat on the back, knowing that Steele had done a great job. He was definitely making the most out of this tryout.
"Great job kid, you learned quite a bit during my few shots. I have nothing but praise, except one thing. If you ever face that speedy shot, don't cheat over as much as you did. I could've easily pulled out and shot right, but since I told you my shots, I decided not to. Don't get me wrong, you can cheat over, but not as much, just in case they want to go the other way you could get there. Because if I went right, it was over. Nonetheless, great job Steele. You stayed calm and that is a great quality. Keep doing what you are doing. And get ready because we have a few more tryouts coming to take you off of you pedestal," Devin said, chuckling quite a bit. He knew Steele wouldn't get too anxious by the statement, knowing the kid was most definitely a composed individual, much like Devin.
Devin went over to the first years trying out. "Hawthorne, you are up. Unless you want her to go first of course, he said, pointing out the other girl. He just wanted to see some action. He also wanted to see how the first years will fair out against Steele. Maybe they will do better than Devin. Today wasn't really his day honestly. So, hopefully they did do better

"Only a true dream
can catch my eye
and hold me down"
Running, panting, broom in hand, Kat raced down towards the pitch. It was a trek long overdue, and Charlotte was yearning to get back on her broom. Charlotte knew she was very late, and hoped Aerynn wouldn't mind too much. She also was excited to see Devin. This year had been so crazy, she hadn't even had a chance to see him. When Kat finally made it to the pitch, she found most everyone already in the air. Smiling, she quickly made her way to the captain. "Hey, Aerynn," she spoke, a bit nervously. "Sorry I'm so late. My grandmother recently passed and I was called home. Anything you'd like me to do?" Charlotte hoped her captain would understand. Looking up, she saw Devin shooting against a young boy she'd never seen before. Catching his eye, she beckoned for him to come to her. She realized in that moment how much she'd missed him.

Devin flew over to Ariana, hoping she would listen to him before she made her move. He finally got over to her, the two of them suspended in the air next to each other. He smiled at her as she acknowledged him. "Alright Ariana, I want you to focus on your technique. Don't try to do anything flashy, focus on the basics. Make sure you draw back your arm when shooting to get some velocity on the quaffle. Good luck Ari," he said, patting her on the back, then making his way to the side, catching a glimpse of the girl he had been waiting to see all year. His closest friend, other than Annabelle of course. She motioned him over and he flew down, got off the broom, and made his way over to her.
"Well, look who it is. Nice to see you Char," he said, hugging her. He had not seen her for quite awhile, but it really didn't hinder the relationship they had built. He made sure to shift his view to Ariana, for he needed to see her take the shot.
"Come on, get on your broom and let's get up there. I need to observe the first years," he waved her on, getting on his broom and taking off. He sat up in the air, a close distance from Ari, but not too close. He awaited Char to get up there and levitate next to him. They were the veterans now; so they had many responsibilities.

"Only a true dream

and hold me down"
As Devin flew over and greeted Charlotte, she couldn't help but feel immensely happy and pumped. He always brought out the competitive side in her, which she loved dearly. When he invited her into the air, she was grateful. He knew her well enough to know that she'd be searching for an excuse to get airborne ASAP. Glancing at Aerynn for any sign of approval, she mounted her broom and took of as fast as she could, lapping the pitch several times before finally slowing to a hover next to Devin. "So how was your summer, mate? Nothing but a shame I didn't get to see you." In a joking manner, she spoke loud enough for the first years to hear. "Who are these newbies?" She looked up at Devin, fire in her eyes. Now that they were both returning chasers, things were a bit different than last year. Instead of competing against each other, the two would be a team, a wall of brute force that completely destroyed any keeper that got in their way. Kat smiled at the thought, knowing that this year there would be a record number of assists. She looked around for the quaffle, her favorite quidditch ball. She loved the way the indents fit in her hand, and how it reminded her of muggle sports. The ball was the only one not enchanted, and that was what made playing chaser so much fun- she had to do all the work. After spotting the quaffle, she eyed Devin once more, smirking, knowing that he would understand her competitive confidence. The hufflepuff team would rock this year!
