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!

If Loki could hear her thoughts, he would have told her that if he can make friends, anyone in the nine realms can make friends. "Then I'm pleased to have brought you such delight." He smiled and motioned for her to look around. "This place isn't as bad as we make it out to be, Miss Maximoff. It will come to feel like home, of that you can be assured."

"I hope so. ... I really do." She was already feeling better about this place. Loki had done much to relieve her fears, certainly more than her often-spoken-of-but-currently-missing brother.

"What... do you do for fun when you're not at the magic club?"

[mischiefandlies]

He offered her a warm smile in response.

"You mean there are other activities besides magic?" He teased, the sarcasm was, surprisingly, not something he'd developed here on Earth. "It depends on your interests. There are training sessions you can schedule either privately, or in groups that help you control your powers. There are also recreational activities to partake, swimming, gym, horse mount lessons... there is even a massive library with one of the largest collections of literature on Midgard. I've even found books of my realm there, which was a bit of a shock. I even provided more accurate translations for the ancient futhark runes." He shrugged. "If none of that is your scene, I do throw a stellar party." Yes, hello common Midgardian vernacular. He does know how to use it, he just doesn't tend to very often.

Some of those things sound great to Wanda. Some of them-- not so much. She'll be skipping the library, thank you very much. the party, however...

"Oh... Are parties a-- common thing here? Is there dancing?"
