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 are gonna teach me that, right? [He grins,genuinely this time. It is good to be back at school, even if it's a little bittersweet to think it's their last year here.]

[mischiefandlies]

If I can pry you away from everyone else long enough to teach you. [He grinned playfully.]

I can show you all the tricks I've learned over the summer. The Gods know you pick up my tricks quicker than I did--which is a little insulting to my pride, mind you.

[actualwizard]

I'm all yours. [He nudges him playfully. And really it's true, Billy might have a lot of friends but there was a very small list of who came first and Loki and Tommy were generally tied at the top of it.]

I would say it's because I have a good teacher but then your ego would swell to epic proportions.

[mischiefandlies]

Oh? I wasn't aware my ego could swell any worse. [He laughed, nudging Billy back.] In that case, Magic study-group over the weekend sound good?

[actualwizard]

Trust me, it can. [So much smirking.] Definitely study session this weekend. I've missed those. It's not the same practicing alone.

[mischiefandlies]

And you're the resident expert on Loki of Asgard. [He shrugged lightly, because well... it was kind of true, actually.] You're right, it's not. Then it's a date! [He teased with a wink. Yep, never gonna live down that people thought they were dating.] A study date.

[actualwizard]

Of course I am. [Billy smiled and rolled his eyes. Loki was incorrigible and really he should be used to that.] Does that mean I should dress nice for you?

[mischiefandlies]

Are we that far along in our relationship that you no longer feel the need to get 'gussied up' for me? [That's followed by a dramatic sigh and roll of his eyes, as if he's hurt by the thought that it no longer matters. He's not. And Billy should know by now he's still just playing. Shortly thereafter, the smirk reappears.] So, which of us gets the flowers?

[actualwizard]

Who said anything about flowers? If you are taking me in a study date I demand chocolate. [Billy smirked at his friend. Of course he was joking, even if he'd never say no to candy.]

[mischiefandlies]

[Loki scoffs with an exasperated huff.] You're so high-maintenance. Chocolate it is. [He's so bringing you chocolate, Billy. In a frilly, heart-shaped box too. Just for that.]

[actualwizard]

[Billy grins smugly at him. He knows he's getting chocolates now, even if it's a joke.] You like it.
