WE'VE GOT SCHOOL SPIRIT!

[makenaide]

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.

[Phew, she's finally here. She'd ended up coming into the Academy a little later than most thanks to a quick overseas trip for a photo shoot but better late than never!

And what a time to arrive. Things were really in full swing around here and she's pretty eager to make the rounds and see what the place has to offer. There's a friend here that she's already gone far too long without seeing and she's got to fix that before she does anything else.

It isn't hard to find just where Towa's set up and she pauses a second to laugh quietly at the sign pointing towards it, just what she'd expect from Towachi, before stepping into view.]

Hii! [She grins wide, winking at her friend.] I heard there was a tea party going on over here.

[almostanthy]

Good day. [ Her roommate came! Towa is pleased and touched.

She gestures to the abundance of open chairs, still determined not to break character as the hostess of the tea party. Kirara is also a professional. Towa trusts she will understand. ] Please, sit wherever you'd like...

[twinkletwinklesuperstar]

[Oh, that's how they're doing it. Towa needn't have worried, Kirara's quick to catch on. Clearing her throat with a light cough, she steps away from the doorway assuming a more proper stance.]

Good day. [She inclines her head a little as she answers. It's a little stuffier than her normal style but it's important to Towa so she's happy to play along. Crossing the room, she chooses a chair and sits down straight-backed and looking over Towa's work.] Wow, this is a real great setup. You really put a lot of work into this, Towachi.

[almostanthy]

[ This time, Towa can't hide the way her cheeks color in pleasure at the compliment. ] The Cooking Club is versed in various entertainments.

Would you care for refreshments? [ Cookies. Cookies for miles. Also petit fours. If it's tiny and dainty and fancy, Towa probably has it.

...but no donut holes. This is not quite that sort of party. ]

[twinkletwinklesuperstar]

[It's just the truth as far as she's concerned, but then, this really is Towa's element. That blush is awful cute too, but she refrains from teasing her about it. She's still playing the proper tea party guest after all.]

I'd love some. [Any party is a donut party, at least as far as Kirara's concerned! All the same it's hard to argue with this kind of cookie game, and she tilts her head with a light laugh as she looks over the assorted snacks.] I'm not quite sure where to start though.

[almostanthy]

If I might make a suggestion.... [ Using a small silver pair of tongs, Towa selects a few of the cookies and arranges them attractively on a plate. Setting it in front of Kirara, she carefully begins preparing a pot of tea. ]

The mild flavors of these treats complement the floral undertones of the tea. It's best if allowed to steep briefly, so please pardon the wait.

[ No tea bags for a Princess Party. She's preparing this with fresh leaves. ]

[twinkletwinklesuperstar]

[Oooh, those cookies do look good. That's to be expected of Towachi though, she really knows her stuff!]

Oh, that's no problem. It's nice to not be in a rush for a little while. [She sits back a bit to wait on the tea, still sitting straight-backed and proper. A little chitchat while waiting for tea sounds nice about now.] So, I guess you've been having a lot of fun with the cooking club?

[It's a bit of a relief. Her work's been pulling her away from school quite often recently, so it's good to see Towa fitting in on her own.]

[almostanthy]

[ Towa nods, looking up from the tea leaves to smile. ] Indeed! An upperclassman I met in town turned out to have been a member.

[ Ah, the tea is ready. She begins to pour it. ] And it's excellent practice in lieu of Princess Lessons.
