Club Week! [OPEN]

[astonishing_xmods]

WHO: Everyone!
WHAT: Club Week is underway, and now we have booths set up for people to really recruit and get their ideas out there. Several NPC clubs have been set up as well. Plus, once again, if you want to get in on some X-Men team building, now's a great time for it.
WHERE: The school foyer
WHEN: Wednesday after classes
WARNING(S): None. If threads go into warning territory, please make a new post for their continuation


It's about halfway into the second week of school. People are already starting to form friendships, build social circles, and embrace student life on the Xavier campus. The faculty has set up several booths in the foyer after normal classes on Wednesday in order for students to centralize recruiting for their various interest groups. Some familiar names pop up, of course. "Anime Club", "Chess Club", "AV Club", "Soccer Club", "Glee Club", "GSA Club", "Bible Study Club" and others. It's a pretty inclusive school, after all, so why not have a broad representation of interests?

As classes let out, students are encouraged to look around, get involved, and otherwise put forth the foundation of their social lives for the school year. And of course, there's always people looking to put together teams for other purposes, too...

[[ ooc: Feel free to make top levels for your own groups, or just post open top levels with no specific group in mind ]]

From a chair behind the table, Hijikata produced a clipboard and pen.

"Write your email address, and I'll forward the paperwork to you. It's nothing complicated, but you should read over it before you sign, all the same."

Basically just a waiver of the same sort that would be required for any kind of sports team. There shouldn't, he thought, be anything objectionable in there.

"Getting settled in all right?"

Alric accepted it, filling in his information in the fields on the page, if their are fields--otherwise, just his name and email.

"Mm, of course... and yes, thank you, fairly well."

He glances about at another booth, then a couple of others, and quickly flashes a somewhat brighter smile.

"...not quite the environment in which I'm accustomed to making new acquaintances, but we do what we must, yes?"

[koukai_kirai]

His gaze follows Alric's around the room, at the motley assortment of teachers and students alike.

"I've been informed on several occasions that it takes all sorts."

And the damned thing about it is that, after so long being here, he half believes it. He can't quite imagine not being here anymore.

[knighterrantofthedragon]

"Ah... yes, I'm inclined to agree. I've found the most valuable advice often comes from someone who sees things entirely differently from oneself, whether from greater experience or merely different."

He smiles, although a touch pensively--obviously thinking of something (or things) in particular, but makes no comment comment on it.

[koukai_kirai]

"Well, you'll certainly find a variety of experience here."

For better and for worse, perhaps.

[knighterrantofthedragon]

"Indeed... well, the better to learn, then, I suppose."

[koukai_kirai]

"True enough." A slight pause, before he added, "As long as you're selective about what you learn."

[knighterrantofthedragon]

Alric might be slightly amused at that response, but he responds seriously, pleasantly, and respectfully all the same.

"I'm certain I can rely on the best of guidance in my time, here, Mr. Hijikata."

[koukai_kirai]

"Hm."

He could make a sarcastic comment about how that sort of thoughtless trust is exactly what he just told him not to do, but can't quite find it in him.

After all, isn't that just what he'd found, when he came here?

"Did you take a look at any of the other clubs?"

[knighterrantofthedragon]

"Ah, yes, a bit. I'll certainly be seeing what.. ah.. ...Miss Elsa has in mind. I spoke with Feliks Lukasiewicz, as well; although I don't believe his club is 'for me,' as they say, we did discuss some other interesting ideas. Miss Maya also has interesting plans."
