Welcome to Gaia! ::

Shehk tried to not sneer after Sin when the Succubus snapped at her. Honestly, Shehk had been nice about the insult she'd just been given by Sin when she came out onto the field in uniform. Because really, it had been quite a big one. Either way, she crinkled her nose and simply wrote a note on the edge of the form she'd been given by the demoness, pausing in her notation when she noticed Emily teetering out to the field with the Haterade.

"Fantastic, Emily! Good thinking!" she beamed in agreement, almost in synchronization with Tack, pausing to look at his uniform, quirking a half-smile and shaking her head. "You know I wouldn't let you get away with that if this were practice." she stated, nabbing the scaretie off of the bunching to correct the snazzy belly-dancer look that the Cerberus brother was sporting.

"Now, I'm going to assume that everybody who has an interest in trying out is here. Then again, now that I've said that I'm sure we're bound to pick up a few stragglers." There was a pause and she made another face. "Or a few spectators." Boo. Either way, she tucked away all of the information on her clipboard, making sure it was firmly attached (as to not blow away in the wind), before looking to Naja.

Naja was definitely the better one at communicating between them. Not to say Shehk couldn't do the same, but sometimes all that came out of Shehk's mouth of 'b***h b***h b***h' instead of 'Explanation of bitchbitchbitch'.

"I think a good place to start is to make sure everybody is stretched out, yeah? A lack of stretching may cause some accidents later if we don't do it now."

Tess had said nothing throughout the exchange between the demon and the captains. She kept her thoughts to a minimum, determination set in her eyes, focused on showing that Yes, she can follow orders. And that Yes, she will be giving her all! So when Shehk mentioned stretching, Tess nodded and carefully lowered herself down to the ground a bit away from the other girls. Her wingspan was generous. They had to be if they were to keep her aloft after all.

Carefully, she would fold her wings in and out, making sure not to hit anyone and that the clawed tips didn't dig into the ground.

Hearing Kasumi's question, Tess couldn't help but wonder what ghosts would need stretching for. But if the ghost girl were to spy Tess' expression, she would see the small but encouraging smile Tess was giving her in the midst of neck rolls.

((During a portion of the try-outs (which will be announced), there will be a dice rolling element, in order to determine whether your character can do some of the basic stunts that will be required for Fearleaders. That's just to keep things fair.))

'Aww' was the expression on Naja's face when Shehk corrected Tack's uniform. Thackery was just so jacking adorable, and the alteration to the uniform was downright cute. "Hey Tack. Why don't you ssshow thesse ladiess how it'sss done?" the gorgon said with a fanged smile. "You look prepared." She would've commented on Shehk's decision (alas!) but she wanted to present the (potential) new Fearios with a united front. "Now, here'ss what we're going to have you all do. Firsssst off, get ssstretched out and limber." She paused to make certain that everyone was following Shehk's orders, before moving on.

"Following that, you'll have the chance to sshow usss if you can do sssome bassic ssstunts, thingss that are required to be on the team." Naja raised an eyebrow, and thought over Kasumi's question. "Sssince you are not corporeal, I would like to know how much you can affect the physsical world. It may be vital during a match to be able to lift sssomeone and you sshould be able to usse the pom-poms. What would you ordinarily do to prepare yourssself for physsical activity..." And Naja had to check the sheet-- "Kasumi?"

It seemed that so far, no one else had any questions, so she continued on with her little speech. "After you've sshowed uss that you meet our bassic requirementss, you will have the opportunity to impresss us with a routine of your own, if you have prepared one in advance. We will have musssic available, if you need it." While she didn't expect that everyone had prepared something for the try-outs, she would be quite disappointed if no one had gone that extra mile. It was fairly standard Fearleading stuff, really.

Flushing with pride, Emily gave another salute to the co-captains and beamed at Thackery. Two thumbs up! Not just one! Two! Obviously she was onto something with this whole "I can be useful by carrying things!" - strategy.

Taking her place by the cerb boy, Emily began stretching with enthusiasm. Though not too much enthusiasm, as one trip to Ms. Cricket's office for over-doing stretches was...more than enough for this witch.

Voice low, and arms stretched out, she began, "I think your uniform looks really nice either way, Tack." Having missed the cause of it, but still noticing something between Shehk and a pretty succubus that was trying out, she continued, "It's nice that everyone's becoming friends already!"

Glancing over at the demon, Emily paused and stared, before whispering, "...she's really bendy!"

Once upon a time, a certain werewolf tried out for the FEARleading team. She didn't get on, but that was okay – a brief stint in gymnastyicks fulfilled Red's teenage crave for attention. At least it did until she joined the Hunting team. Granted that team didn't have short skirts either...

Either way, this FEARleading team was certainly better than that other one! Why, even now it looked like they were getting started! Red grinned to herself as she approached the field carrying her trusty collapsible lawnchair under one arm and a box in the other, setting up in a place that offered a good view of what was going on but not too close as to be disruptive or to get into anyone's way.

The gym teacher looked a bit disappointed to see that they were just now warming up. It looked like the more entertaining trying part of the try-outs were still to come. At least she still had time to run off and make a bowl of popcorn before the good stuff began...
