Basketball Practice, Sunday Morning, Gym

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

Yes, more than two weeks passed between the game and the next practice session for the basketball team. No, Tyler doesn't want to explain why. He had handwavily sent out an email scheduling today's session and asking when people wanted to practice going forward; that should be enough.

He turned on a mix tape, mostly Rage Against the Machine and Linkin Park, loudly enough to make the floor around it shake from the bass, and started working on his free throws.

[OOC: Expect extreme SP from me from about 1:30 p.m. EST or so until much later. And please answer the survey if you haven't yet.]

River assumed he was referring to the music and nodded happily. "Don't know much about the music here though. But I've listened to CDs at the Empire." She hadn't been able to decide what to buy though, and there was also the problem of not owning a CD player. They had been kind of obsolete in her time.

"Doesn't surprise me this stuff didn't last," Tyler nodded. "I could make you a mix CD or something, if you wanted." He looked at his shoes. "You're a good dancer."

"Oh, a CD would be nice." She frowned. "Only I haven't got a CD player. And I like dancing. You like dancing?"

"I ... like watching people dance," he said. "I don't really do it myself."

River nodded, hiding her slight disappointment well. It would have been nice to go dancing. Then all of a sudden she picked up a ball and threw it at him. "Catch!" she said, grinning.

Tyler caught the ball, though he stumbled backwatrd a bit doing so.

"I could, uh, learn to dance," he offered, not sounding especially enthused.

"Ok," River said, still grinning, "Then I can learn this game." She reached out and tried to take the ball from him.

Tyler held on for a moment. "Mine," he said, feigning seriousness, before letting her have it back.

"It's simple, just trying to get the ball in the baskets while the other team tries to stop you."

"Like this?" River asked, throwing the ball nicely into the basket. As it bounced she caught it again.

"Exactly like that," Tyler said, a little surprised. "I owe you a dance move, don't I?"

"Yes. I'll remind you later," River said and poked his arm. She threw the ball back at him and let him get back to the team.

Tyler poked River back, gently, and returned to practice.
