Cheerleading Tryouts - The Gym, Friday After Classes

Loki was more than a bit excited to start this club up. Because it would grant him power over people. As Student Council did very little to allow him to boss people around other than for dances.

So...

"Greetings, those who wish to become cheerleaders! I am Loki and this is Jessica. We will be judging you today." Judging you so much.

"We may not know the first thing about cheerleading, but it's not like that kept us from restarting the squad in the first place," Jessica said, doing her best to set the bar low. "We also only have one sports team, and I'm not even sure who they play against. But again, not stopping us. Such is the power of cheerleading." She sounded very convinced.

They were a former genocidal villain and the cross-gender clone of Spider-Man. They could do anything. "It is lacrosse. There are sticks," Loki informed her helpfully. "I have learned from Wikipedia, that this involves cheering and gymnastics. So, we ask that you give us an example of both things."

Try it in iambic pentameter. He dared you.

"If you want to use pom-poms for either portion, we found the squad's old equipment and dusted it off, so you don't have to worry about making yourself sneeze in the middle of spelling something," Jessica said. "Unless you're allergic to spelling, in which case what are you even doing in a school?"

"...right." Loki was judging your quips in preparation of the potential cheerleaders, Jessica. "So, we hope to see your best. And if you did not sign up at the club fair, we are still taking all those who are interested."

Speaking of which...

"Loki's a cheerleader," Maddie said. "Loki Loki?"

"Norse God of Mischief Loki, yes," Jessica said, nodding her head in his direction. "He seems to be playing with his phone and leaving the actual work to me, but... well, that's to be expected, I guess."

"Does that mean you're going to be the only one cheering?" Maddie wondered.

"Nah. A few people signed up. Only one of whom might not actually do real cheering, which I still consider a win," Jessica said. "But if this trainwreck is piquing your interest at all, we could always use another person."

"The trainwrecky part kind of does, yeah," she admitted. "Do I actually have to try out?"

It was easier on the ego to potentially make an idiot of yourself in a group, it really was.

"You do. But honestly, you don't have to do too much," Jessica said. "When Gert signed up, she pretty much told me that she wasn't going to do any athletics or cheering and I'm pretty sure she's making the squad."

"It's just, I wasn't prepared for this or anything?"

Her tryout would be a 'go team' if she had to do it.

"Spontaneity is fun," Jessica said with complete conviction. "You'll do great."
