With the first term of the school year in full swing, and the first few weeks going off without a hitch, clubs, intramural teams and official sports teams at both Crux Academy and Nebulae Institute have begun meeting for the first time. With a wide number of different extra curricular and other various things to do around campus outside of class, students are highly encouraged to take part in one or multiple goings-on around their school. Both schools will be hosting an involvement fair (at different times, conveniently enough) in order to bolster enrollment in the various clubs or teams, and students are encouraged to at least give these different opportunities a try.
Not seeing a club or organization that catches your fancy? That's all right! Just make one yourself. So long as you have enough members (neither school has gone into too much detail about what constitutes "enough"), and are willing to share--or fight for, as the case may be--club room or field space, then you're set!
Interested in taking a more responsible approach? Various businesses around Galactica have begun hiring part time students. While many of the jobs are more than willing to take on Crux students, there are a few establishments that seem to prefer the cunning ways of Nebulae's student body. These jobs run the gamut between retail, babysitting, hospitality--really anything.
Additionally, the vocational school for monsters is looking for assistance in getting their students real-world experience. Be it helping them terrorize the town or giving them something to fight, this volunteer work is easy enough to find, and a good way to get some real world experience. Participation is highly encouraged.
[[Please use this as an open log for club activity, part-time jobs, monster fighting, whatever seems appropriate!]]
Japanese Culture Appreciation Club
Date: 2015-12-07 12:43 pm (UTC)[ The Japanese Culture Appreciation Club, shortened to the JCA, is definitely still recruiting! The booth Tsubasa and her students have set up is nothing fancy
because none of them are especially good at artbut it doesn't have to be.She believes in showing the practical effects of her studies! ]
Hey, en garde!
[ Tsubasa's voice rings out from above you, and a kunai zips out of the treetops, completely missing anybody's body, and instead punching clean into the ground.
A miss...? Hardly, it's her Shadow Binding, anybody pinned by their shadows should be left unable to move.
It's ninjutsu. ]
Meeting
[ It's really not supposed to be a ninjutsu club, but that's the flashiest thing Tsubasa can do without putting on her Gear, so she's continuing that theme before handing the reins off to the students and their independent research. ]
There are many facets to Japanese culture. They are a people who have thrived for many centuries, many of them spent developing without interference from the rest of the world. It means there is nothing quite like it anywhere.
[ She's giving a lecture after having everyone watch a period flick. ]
Assassins all over the world have their own ways of getting into places. I doubt you will find another people who decided the best way to beat a moat was simply to walk over it.
It's a difficult skill, but one anyone can learn. All it requires is sufficient physical fitness, and the willingness to abandon the ego and become one with nature. I believe it should be relevant to your future hunting, too. A proper warrior must be prepared to fight no matter where the enemy strikes from.

Date: 2015-12-08 03:40 am (UTC)Unfortunately for her, her opponent is well-versed in predicting attacks. The kunai finds itself knocked off trajectory by a small chain weighted with a white stone on one side and a black stone on the other - pieces used for playing Go.
The girl who'd thrown the chain recrosses her arms. ] "Don't count your chickens." Attempt your assault again in ten years.
[ She looks over at Tsubasa. ] Did you wish to speak to me?
no subject
Date: 2015-12-08 04:46 am (UTC)Stay always on the battlefield. [ JOZAI SENJOU ] Your vigilance is commended, but I can hardly afford to wait ten years.
[ Because first, that's incredibly insulting to the teacher who's here to teach you how to fight monsters, jeez. Second: ]
You can hardly join my club once you've graduated, after all.
/breaks out the proper yojijukugo for THE SWORD
Date: 2015-12-08 10:28 pm (UTC)Don't worry, Tsubasa. You had her at "jozai senjou". But an overeager combatant is one more likely to make mistakes, so Sion takes her time to appraise this club leader. It was an advertisement...? Competition for the Go club? And from Crux, no less. Enrolling here was the correct decision, as always!
Her expression remains level. ] "Feelings matching." [ Iki tougou. ] Yet I fear I'm already dedicated to the Nebulae Go Club. Rather than too early, you've approached too late.
/slams down on jisho.org
Date: 2015-12-15 07:30 pm (UTC)[ Tsubasa's heart is rent! How could she, who is swift as lightning and faster than the wind, be too slow?! But what's done is done. She can hardly change things, now can she.
But... ] Wait, Nebulae...?
no subject
Date: 2015-12-16 04:43 pm (UTC)[ Look at Sion. Now back to yourself. Now back to Sion, now back to yourself. What's that you're holding? It's a flyer for the newly-founded Nebulae Go Club, done entirely in black and white! Someone has a fixation. ]
State your name so I may assess your worth as my rival.
no subject
Date: 2015-12-17 11:06 am (UTC)Tsubasa. Tsubasa Kazanari. [ Nay, her friends call her Tsubasa. ] PE Teacher.
[ Tsubasa's not going to quite reach for Ame-no-Habakiri yet, but she's obviously suspicious, looking at the flyer in her hand. ]
What's a Nebulae student doing here? Depending on your answer, I may have to take action. The students here are all under my care.

Date: 2015-12-17 04:44 pm (UTC)[ She just wants to play ancient board games with her self-declared rivals, gosh. Well, and assess the competition. But nothing more! ]
no subject
Date: 2015-12-19 08:59 pm (UTC)I shall permit it. The children here should learn that they're always living on the battlefield. [ The spirit of JOZAI SENJOU. ] But when you enter the tiger's den, don't regret it when you get bitten.
no subject
Date: 2015-12-20 03:13 am (UTC)[ She's doing her best to stay calm, playing it cool. The last thing she needs when facing an opponent like this is to forget these very same rules they're discussing. And yet - and yet -
This is so exhilarating. Sion has found a worthy, equal opponent! Please notice her, sensei.
But what will sensei's next move be...? ]
no subject
Date: 2015-12-22 09:11 pm (UTC)[ She's confident in her ability! Uncle Genjuurou and Ogawa-san have given her more than enough teaching material.
In the form of kung fu and period flicks.At least in terms of fighting ability, her students will become top notch! ]But if that doesn't satisfy you, you're free to challenge this sentinel any time!
no subject
Date: 2015-12-23 02:00 pm (UTC)[ In other words, fight to instruct, not necessarily to win. This "Japanese Culture Club" shall be her first target to conquer! ]
