SHIELD Academy
Open House
Everyone is congregated in the spacious auditorium of the SHIELD Academy. The noise level is probably a decibel below deafening and the lights are probably a little dimmer than what might seem normal for this time in the evening, but it doesn't seem to bother anyone as they just carry on. There are banners strewn about welcoming all first years to a new chapter in their lives while others welcome the others back for another year at the Academy. Refreshments are served up on stage while other tables set up around the massive room are home to pamphlets and flyers for clubs and classes. Special electives and advertisements for training sessions are also littered amongst the tables.

Make a few friends, find old ones, look into clubs that catch your interest. This is open house for all returning students and prospective students, so hang out, hit up others and just mingle!

"You got that right." Felicia replied, thinking of all the nights she's spent out partying, there was a bitterness to that joy though. "What do you do for enjoyment then?" she asked, to get her mind off the subject of her own inner turmoil.

Sif lifts one shoulder in a shrug, her expression flashing momentarily sheepish. "I come from a place very far away from here. I've always wanted to be a warrior among my people, but it is not a common path for girls to follow. Here, it is more acceptable if I want to learn to fight, so many of the clubs I have tried have something to do with that, or competition. The sports are enjoyable. There is a horseback riding club that is very relaxing and fun."

"Warrior, huh?" Felicia couldn't figure out Sif's origin and it intrigued her. "I wonder if they teach Wu Shu here. I really enjoyed the different martial arts and gymnastics clubs I was in back home. It helped me focus."

[prevalkyrie]

"Wu Shu?" Sif tried out the strange word with a puzzled look. "What is this Wu Shu?"

[felicitousfeloniousfeline]

"It's a Chinese Martial Art. A personal favorite. I love the fluid movements involved. Anyway," she said, sipping her drink. "You have your eye on any cute guys yet? Or girls, if that's what you're into. No judgement." Indeed, Felicia had been known to experiment on occasion.
