Buffy was ready and waiting for the cheerleaders today. She was smiling and bouncing a weetiny bit. "Hi all! I thought we'd practice lifts today, so everyone team up and try this."

She waved for Alec to join her. He obediently did so. He lifted her up until she could spread her legs around his waist, then lifted her over his right hip, then his left. He finished by throwing her across his shoulders, letting her slide down in front of him again. She beamed at him.

"Thank you Alec. Everyone get that? Great!"


ooc: wait for it. The move Buffy and Alec showed looks more like a Swing dance move than anything else. Or something figure skating couples would do.

The gym was set up as it had been for other try-outs. The current cheerleaders were sitting behind desks, pen and paper ready to make judging marks. In front of them were an open space, with a pile of mats to one side in case someone was feeling uncertain of their abilities. There was ample space on the bleachers for an audience to support and/or mock the people trying out.

They would need at least three cheerleaders to replace those graduating this spring.


(ooc: Posted early so people working Sundays (!!!) can get a chance to play too! Wait for OCD is up! Come try out! Show your school spirit!)

Buffy bounced into the gym, looking extremely cheerful and ready to start the practices for the new year. "Hello everyone! I have great news!" She waved an envelope at them. "We're going to our first competition on the 24th of February! Isn't that fantastic? Of course, this means we must train very hard and diligently until then."

Judging from Buffy's expression, this was a good thing.

"Also, on Sunday we have a new try-out session - which I hope you know - so I hope as many of us as possible can be there, and remember to bully badger threaten coerce convince tell all your friends!"

Buffy smiled brightly again and turned on the CD player. Oh Mickey, you're so fine, you're so fine, you blow my mind, Hey Mickey!

She raised her voice. "Today we're going to try something really exciting! Pyramids! Small, light people at the top, strong types at the bottom. It really important that everyone's paying attention and, um, try not to fall down." She chewed her lip a little worriedly, before smiling again and clapping her hands. "Let's get to it!"

Buffy waited until people had gathered, then stepped in to the middle of the room and clapped her hands. "Okay!" she said cheerfully. "Happy Pippi-brings-us-cookies Day! Today is the last practice before Christmas, and we're going to start putting things together! I know we don't really have a team to cheer -- you'd think that with this many geeks, there'd at least be a chess team, but no -- so learning cheers might be a little futile, but I think we should anyway."

She paused to hand out sheets of papers with cheers on.

"I want us to try this cheer to a slightly modified macarena routine first." Buffy took a deep breath and demonstrated: "Hey hey, let's do it again, Everybody yell, Go! Fight! Win!" When she got to 'win' she jumped around, hands on her hips. "And then you can practice yelling cheers or krump. Oh! There will be new students coming in after new years, I think, so we should have another try-out session then. I'm thinking the second weekend of January?"

Buffy gave them all a narrow eyed, kind of scary look. "That's also the deadline if any of you want to drop Cheerleading, because after that we'll start attending competitions and if you drop out in the middle of a competition I won't be held responsible for my actions."

"What else?" Buffy pondered. "Oh! I've lost track. Who are our current bases and flyers?"

It was fifty-three degrees out, with a projected high of sixty-six, and today was one of the last days of November, so Janet was outside, enjoying the good weather while it lasted. She'd spread a blanket out, and was leaning back against a tree reading.

OOC: Open for random bothering of the wee cranky one.

D'anna had planned to spend her day in her room, freaking out over "zomg, wtf, my ethics teacher is a cylon!" and other useful things when she heard something out side her door.

She opened her door and found something wee... and yappy. D watched as the dog barked, did some turns very excitedly and finished off big with some prancing on her hind-legs with more some more circling.

Seeing as she wasn't in creature languages, she just stared at the wee fluff ball until it bound into her room and sorta pounce-yipped at her pom-poms. The light bulb went on, "oh, great galloping gods! Buffy?" YIP! with some possible tail wagging. "Cheerleading...?" More yipping and wagging.

So D made some calls to her fellow cheerbunnies and a while later, she was in the gym, warming up, and listening to some really up-beat music while under the watchful eye of, er, puppy-Buffy.

[ooc: OCD on the way is up, yay! Puppy-Buffy mod'ed with permission.]

In an attempt to enjoy the day, Janet had dragged a blanket outside, on the dorm grounds, and was laying down on it, making notations in a binder. She had a covered pitcher of lemonade and a filled glass next to it that she was slowly drinking.

Realizing there hadn't been a scheduled practice in a while, and that there was a basketball match coming up... sometime, Alec decided to live up to his co-captain title and hold one.

So he was in the gym after workshops, putting out the mats and playing what sounded like a CD of all your favorite 80s songs, dance-remixed nearly beyond recognition.

[OOC: wait for OCD! OCD done!]

In a perfect scenario, D'anna would still be in bed.

However, she'd handwavily agreed to open practice while Cheer-boy was in computer class.

So here she was in the campground gym, random rock music blaring and warming up while she waited for the others to show.

[OOC: I'm thinking this is an all afternoon thing so that cheerleaders with workshops today can still stop by after their classes let out. Someone give me a heads up if that's somehow wrong.]

After the game, the second floor common room could be found bedecked with gold and blue streamers and a banner hanging on one wall that said "GO GREMLINS" in large letters.

There were also set up tables with food and drink so handwavily set up by the cheerleaders and a stereo playing the cheerleaders' practice music mix at an acceptable volume.

It was a victory party! No matter who won.

[OOC: Wait for OCD, yo OPEN TO EVERYONE YAAAAY]
[identity profile] 1ordinarygirl.livejournal.com
"Go! Fight! Win!" The cheerleaders cheered enthusiastically as the audience shuffled into the gym. The players were already in place, and the gym was definitely ready for game time.

Unfortunately, since Fandom did not yet have any of the Dibblers, no hot pies, hot dogs or rats-onna-stick were being served.

The big game is on Saturday.

Buffy is awake.

You bet your ass there'll be a practice!

Buffy is looking a little battered, but definitely cheerful. The CD-player is blasting Kung-Fu Fighting at max volume, and the mats have been pulled out. "Okay! Today we'll be practicing in trios! So I hope you're all here! It's very important that we get *nsync in sync before the game, so work hard, guys!"

Molly was surprised to find the gym empty when she arrived. This left plenty of room for her to practice her cheer leading routines at least. Before she attempted any of the jumps, however, she spent quite a bit of time stretching out and warming up.

CD-player and mats were in place, as Buffy waited for the other cheerleaders to arrive. She was hoping Alec would be better today, the poor sick kitty. She kept glancing towards the bleachers like she was waiting for someone.

Once some/all the cheerleaders had arrived, she got up.

"Next Saturday is the first Gremlins game!" Buffy announced, beaming. "So we have to start practicing really, really hard!"

Buffy had thought ahead and handwavily ordered samples of cheerleader uniforms. In blue and yellow, of course, occasionally with a little white. And now she was wandering the hallways, looking for people to pressgang recruit into the wonders of cheerleading and/or basketball. And those she already HAD recruited, to let them know that there would be a meeting in the gym on Saturday. So far Alec was the only one who knew about that, and while she liked Alec just fine, her and Alec alone in the gym wouldn't help her cause any.

So she grabbed her notebook, grinned at the heart next to Zack Addy's name, many, cheerleading outfits and began roaming the hallways.


ooc: Mainly for those of you who want to be involved, those of you who want to try out will get your chance later. And it'll be more fun, honest.

Laden with a duffle bag and a backpack, Angela felt like she was moving everything she owned as she prepared to head to the airport. Or, more accurately, she was carrying half of what she owned and making Marty carry the other half.

Not quite idly, she wondered if she should add a sweater. Or another pair of pajamas. And maybe she should have bought a third swimsuit.

Of course, she wasn't obsessing over packing because she didn't want to think about how much she would miss everyone at school. Nope. Not at all.

The thought made her sigh, so she crammed one more book into her duffle and surveyed the current pile of luggage, then began to idly pace the lobby, waiting for the rickshaw cab.


[OOC: Say bye to Angela and Marty here, if you wish. I'm around until 11 EST and then back about 2:30. Also, consider phone messages telling their friends when they were leaving handwaved into existence.]

Marty sits in front of his laptop trying to come up with his own personal theory of justice for ACJ.

The theory really shouldn't be much of a problem, it's trying to somehow work a pillow into the concept that's giving him grief.

Now that she's gotten two good nights of sleep and has gotten off of the emotional rollercoaster she was on last week, things are starting to sink in. If she stops, she's going to have to think and she's just not ready to do that right now. So after Western Civilizations, she got supplies and set up shop in the fourth floor common room.

Anyone on the fourth floor (and given how much garlic she's using, anyone throughout most of the dorm) should smell the puttanesca sauce cooking. Come and eat.

Rory arrived in the lobby balancing a tank with a wee turtle in it against one hip, a box from J,GOB in the opposite arm, and a flying puppy on a leash leading her.

She tied Vladdie to the leg of a table, set Yoda's tank and the cake down, and looked around to see what she still needed to set up.

[Yes, even crack-addled ideas like this need OCD threads. Wait for 'em. They're up, but play on the contest itself won't start until 5:30 EST.

Even though Marty was given an invitation to move into Room 239/240 by Jack on Sunday, it wasn't until today that Marty finally found the time to pack up his belongings and start the migration to his new digs down the hall.

Sure... Some people would say he was crazy to give up a single but Marty couldn't resist the opportunity to figure out what those Colorado Refugees were trying to hide from the rest of the school.

Marty picked up his first box and looked over to Camilla.

"C'mon girl. Let's go meet our new roomies."

So together Marty and his pet chicken started the migration down the hallway.

Gremlin Advisory )

GREMLIN ADVISORY

Fandom High is dealing with an infestation of gremlins. Here are a
few simple way to protect yourselves.

1) Gremlins dislike crinkling noises. Tying cellophane items such as
Twinkie wrappers to your clothing will prevent them from
approaching you.

2) Store big items, like boxes of cookies, in the vents to your room.
Gremlins won't be able to crawl around them to get to you.

3) Do not bathe more than once per week. Gremlins are attracted
to the scent of soap.

4) Gremlins are strongly allergic to the smell of onion and asparagus.
Ask the chef to give you an extra helping!

5) Do not wear socks. Gremlins are attracted to the taste of wool.

STAY SAFE. STAY SANE

Worried about the radio broadcast's implication that he could be punished if he didn't personally meet all of the new students, Angel decided to post the following sign outside of his dorm room door:

MAGIC SHOW TONIGHT!
All are invited! (Especially new students!)
Show starts at 7pm at Caritas!
No, I am not singing. - Angel.


Angel stood back and observed the nice, neatly-written some might even call the handwriting girly poster. There, that had to count for something. He thought about doing more but he'd already invited Blair and Lily Evans personally and he'd left voice mails for Logan and Cordy (and if they were more staticy than usual which they were he didn't notice since he was always of the opinion that cellphones were the tool of the devil). Sure he could make more signs, but most folks on the second floor passed by his door, anybody he cared about on the third floor certainly hung out on the second often enough, and you couldn't pay him to go up to the fourth floor even if you put a convent up there also because he didn't know Blair was living on 4.

He did, however, belatedly think of something. He took out his marker and hastily added:

This is not a part of a bid for Student Council! PLEASE do not vote for me!

There. He recapped his marker then went to play with Sean by tossing a tennis ball down the hallway for the puppy to chase.

Aeryn's trying to be accessible, really. She's making an effort.

So far that effort includes shaking her head at the television trying to figure out who actually watches some of this stuff and why so many women have to take their husbands on Maury for paternity tests. And yes, this means the Nerf gun has come back out. Because television people really can be that stupid and shooting Nerf missiles keeps Aeryn's head from hurting.

As the second floor common room was too busy, Angel, Logan, and a party hat wearing Sean made their way to the third floor common room. Finding no other posts about it it empty, Angel put his box down on one of the tables. "Um, you wanna pick? I could put the popcorn in the microwave."

Anders having done most of the prep work (and being zomg busy with his whole pyramid thing today!), Vala had agreed to actually run the psychology experiment cookie taste-testing.

She sets out a table in the lobby of the dorms with a big sign offering "Free Cookie Taste Test!"

Anyone who stops by she makes try one cookie from each of two festively decorated holiday cookie plates, one prominently labeled "Regular NPC Company Holiday Cookies!" the other labeled "New Recipe NPC Company Holiday Cookies!"

She explains to anyone who asks that she got a temp job running the taste-test for NPC Brand on campus, and happily offers anyone who passes by one of each kind, just as long as they tell her which they prefer, so she can mark it down in her book.

Come on! She gets paid per response people! Help a fellow student out! Plus, free cookies during finals! What could be better?

After a day and a half of packing, Sam was ready to move downstairs into her new room. She looked around at the boxes, for once thankful that all she had were her textbooks, her clothes, and the gifts she'd gotten since she got here. It shouldn't take her more than an hour or two to carry everything down to Room 231.

She picked up the first milk crate full of books and carried it downstairs, a bag of her clothes perched precariously on top.
