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!

I guess this really is still just a high school. [Which is oddly relieving in its own way. Normal has been an elusive concept for Virginia as of late, and certainly not something she thinks she's going to find among a bunch of superpowered agents-in-training. But they're all still kids too, regardless of intelligence and abilities. Maybe eventually Virginia can be too.

She doesn't miss how Bruce keeps his distance, but that's okay. She isn't looking to scare him off, and if a lack of contact makes him more comfortable, Virginia can work with it. She keeps up pretty easily, making her way to the tables until they come to the set up Bruce had pointed out earlier.]

So, am I picking up another pamphlet, or is there more of a demonstration for this one?

It has its moments, but overall? Yeah, just a high school. [ Which just happens to have mostly genius brilliant minds or superpowered teenagers for students. Some of them being even a little bit of both. ]

You can get a pamphlet if you want, but they've set up a couple of mats too. They were aiming for something a little more flashy, to try and get more new people to join. There. [ Once they come closer and navigate their way through the larger mass of people, he points at a pair of students performing a basic routine, choreographed for the most part, on one of the mats. Nothing too complicated for now, but still they're getting plenty attention as it is. ]
