PE and Health Class - Friday - First Period

[alwaysonguard]

Gladio stood, ready and prepared for this day's lesson, spinning a tennis racket idly in his hand as if he was barely conscious of it. After all, when you were used to wielding swords just as big as you were (and you were not by any measurement a small man), this thing practically felt like air. But he was definitely actually thinking of what kind of damage it might do if he needed to use it in a pinch.

Finally, though, he stopped twirling the thing and met the students with a grin. "Tennis!" he announced. "It's a sport about hitting a ball with a weird looking stick over a waist-high net!"

Sure. It was definitely just that simple.

Dwight looked at his co-teacher with a definite eyebrow lift at that as he spoke up.

"It's a little more involved than all of that, but yes. Today we are going to work out some pent up energy with some rousing matches. So, let's not waste any time and get into the actual lesson about the game" he said giving a smirk to Gladio as they got started.

"Hey Jo," Dwight said as he walked over, noticing the worried look on her face. "How's it going?"

"Oh hello Mr. Hendrickson," Jo startled a bit from where she had been trying to make sure she could follow how to play tennis ... since it had definitely been a while since she had even been on a tennis court, "it's ...well I was rather worried about playing tennis ... it's been ... well I haven't had that much experience," she admitted.

[so sorry for the late response, work has been rather bad lately and I've had earlier starts than normal]

"Want to do a few practice rounds before we really get started? Might give you a chance to get a bit more comfortable with it all?" Dwight asked with a friendly smile as he held up his own racket.


(and no worries.... its been insane here as well.)

Jo considered a bit and then nodded, even though she was still a bit nervous about it, “I think I would like to try that, thank you,” she said.
