Thread: Extracurricular Activities [Spider-Man -- Sigr & Virginia]

She dismissed the option of a chair because it would make it pretty crammed at the small tables they were using, content to just stand. She wanted the chance to stretch her legs after all the time spent sitting in school. Savannah was unused to it, and she used her home schooling as an excuse for it, though really it was more the fact that she hadn't gone this long in a normal day without the intense level of physical training she was used to. School PE wasn't really the same. As close as she was, Savannah noticed. But she didn't know what it meant it didn't seem much faster than the average person might hit a button, so instead of interpreting it as a reflexes thing, she assumed that he was overeager. Either in general, or because he was showing off a little. She knew about that, though her excited showing off had been weaponry and the only person who'd mattered was her dad. He hadn't allowed for that sort of thing, but it didn't mean she didn't understand it. Normal teenagers should be allowed to get excited about things. Life was good and important, and everyone should enjoy it in ways that she didn't and couldn't anymore. Being around other people her age was weird. Made her feel... something? 'Relaxed' wasn't the right word, but there was some sort of weight that felt like it was off of her shoulders now. She wasn't sure what to make of it, so for now she was enjoying it in some way. When Flash spoke, one of her eyebrows arched gracefully and Savannah moved very quietly while the attention was more on Peter and then leaned down, placing a hand on the table and more or less blocking the line of vision between Peter and the annoying teen on his right through the use of her body and her hair. It left her facing Peter and Ned, and she smiled at the two of them like she was interested in something that they were specifically doing, though there was nothing but scrap paper for working out problems and the buzzers. Doesn't seem like the best way to do things, but I don't know how this works. The fact that it seemed like she was paying Peter particular attention was sort of secondary to the fact that her plan was just to put her back to Flash. Fairness was important to her in this sort of thing. Peter had stood up for her, even if she didn't want it, and fair play said that she did the same thing for him. She didn't want to fight Flash or anything, so this was what she'd do. Let the guy know there was no positive attention he could get from her, that all he'd get to see was her back. Got one that isn't just memorization, Michelle? Was there one that she could answer, in other words. The darker skinned teen shrugged, and flipped through a few of her cards until she found one that could be solved on a piece of paper and read it out. Whatever interest Savannah had seemed to fade after a few moments of thinking, and she ended up leaning in closer over Peter's shoulder to see what he would do. This was one that she actually knew, but she was going to go ahead and pretend that she didn't. It would be better if nobody started wanting her to actually participate, after all. It was advantageous that this was the smartest of the smart, because it meant that not being able to keep up didn't mean her admission into the school was questionable.
