Cheerleading Try-Outs -- After Classes, Tuesday, The Gym

[walks-two-paths.livejournal.com]

Savannah got to the gym after classes to set things up for try-outs. She had mats and tables pulled out, with refreshments available for both the current cheerleaders and those trying out.

There was a table arranged with clipboards for the squad members to write notes as they watched the hopefuls try-out. There was also a portable stereo for those routines that were choreographed to music.

It was time for try-outs for the Fandom High Gremlins!

"Savannah sort of talked me into it," Ella said, sounding a little nervous. "I'm not sure I knew you did it! Do you like it?"

"She's captain, so she likes to get out there and recruit," Rikku grinned. "Oooh, I've been on the squad for ages, ever since I showed up. I love it. You get to dance and yell and bounce around. We have slumber parties sometimes and we go to competitions and it's awesome. You should join! It'll be awesome!"

Since ... that was why Ella was here already, and all. Still!

"I'm trying out!" Ella said, looking a little more enthused. "I picked out a cheer from Savannah's notebooks and I've been trying to do he moves the others are doing. I can't do the flips, though, do you think that will matter?"

"Just do your best," Rikku said. "It'll be awesome, I know it. Show lots of spirit and wave your arms and smile a lot and I can help! Do you need help? With practicing, I mean? We don't have much time but we have some!"

Ella had to grin at her roommate's enthusiasm. "You can tell me if the rhyme I picked is any good?" she asked, then awkwardly went through it (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhighdorms/1484017.html?thread=121440241#t121440241) "Gremlins attack..."

She wasn't bad, except for where she interpreted "wave your arms" very, um, literally, and so they were just sort of flying around while she performed.

Rikku applauded, and bounced. "I love it! You have the spirit bit down. Okay. When you do the arms thing? Try to move them more like ..."

Rikku: Totally in Cheer Mode, now.

Ella repeated the cheer, copying Rikku's arm movements as closely as she could. "This is sort of fun!"

"It's awesome," she promised. "That was great. You'll do great. This'll be fun, I swear! Cheer rocks. Are you nervous? Don't be. You'll be awesome. I mean it."
