The Club Fair - Gym - Friday Afternoon 9/24/10

To be perfectly honest, Blackagar wasn't sure how he ended up being in the gym this afternoon. Let alone being one of the first people there.

But that was just how life worked sometimes.

Plus, it gave him a chance to look over the new clubs first! Score for him.

[Please wait for the scary OCD is up!]

"I'm not sure I understand," Elphaba said. "What will the group be doing?"

The qualifications of joining, at least, made sense to her.

"Not a lot of support groups where you're from, huh?" Ben replied.

Elphaba shook her head. "Not that I've seen. But then, most wouldn't have me," she said. "It's just that, then? Support through common trauma?"

"Basically," Ben said, nodding. "It's not generally the kind of thing you want to drop on people watching a movie in the common room, you know?"

"No," Elphaba admitted. "Even if it'd probably be of more value than most movies."

She thought for a second, and made a decision. "I think I should join, then." She said it with an authoritative nod, that made her glasses slide just a little down her nose.

"I'd be happy to have you," he said with a smile.

Now that got a smile out of Elphaba, though she tried to surpress it. "There's a phrase I don't usually hear. Are you sure you're not mad?"
momslilassassin: ([neu] wistful)

"Mad like angry or like out of my mind?" Ben replied.

"The latter," Elphaba said, clarifying. "It was a poor joke. I'm... sorry."

Socializing was hard. Books were easier.

Ben's lips quirked up. "Yeah, you need to work at that a bit."

Elphaba nodded. "There isn't a club for that too, is there?" she said. "Dealing with jokes?"

"Not that I know about," Ben replied. "I think it's mostly something you learn by doing."

Or, in the case of some of his family, never learn at all.
