Is Don't Talk About Fight Club

WHO: Fight Club! And anyone who wants to show up just to watch.
TONE: Roughhousing and Shenanigans
RATING: PG-13 to be safe
WHEN: Saturday Night, October 6
WHERE: Empty Dueling classroom
WHAT: The first meeting of the fight club! There will be teenagers hitting each other with fists, shirtless boys, witty pre-fight banter, and popcorn.
STATUS: [ONGOING] (Tags can be formatted however you like)

Although there were a few bumps and agitated on the way there, Maxim was feeling pretty stoked about the first gathering of the fight club. He almost wished he'd gotten around to setting it up sooner, if only because he'd been feeling pretty antsy lately as it was without Mamma's famous nightly bar fights to indulge in. Not to mention all the weird little verbal fights he'd been getting himself into. Clearly, he really just needed to work all that stuff out! And now he can.

And really, he couldn't have picked a better place to do it, either. The Dueling classroom was already perfectly set up and equipped in case of accidents, all he really needed to do was throw up a few signs, and he was set. One listed a few rules and guidelines (mostly thought up on the fly to appease Greg's worries), and there was a big sign with huge, glittery purple letters that said "These people are not for fighting!" over an area with benches and bowls of popcorn for audience members.

And then there was Maxim, plopped down on the floor, wrapping bandages around his hands as he waited for people to show up. He wasn't shirtless just yet, but he was wearing a plain white tank top and short red gym shorts, his usual cowboy boots traded in for plain, battered sneakers. With hair tied back into a loose ponytail, he was all ready and raring to go!

Lyrl returned the slight frown. It was actually possible that Shinra went too far in the direction of not being a Gryffindor.

"I suppose being impartial is one way to not be drawn into it yourself. People can be very competitive about this sort of thing."

He nods understandingly, maintaining eye contact as he does so.

"You're definitely right about that. There is something very primal and instinctive about physical combat, isn't there? And with that in mind, it would be very easy to get drawn in if you're not careful. I'm hoping to avoid that."

"Getting drawn in is part of the fun. The more barbaric, the better."

He chuckles. "Well, perhaps up to a point."

"Is it?" He pauses, pondering this concept momentarily. "I suppose it might be appealing on a certain level, but I don't know the appeal would be enough to counteract your sense of self preservation. I suppose we'll see what happens."

"If you're not fighting with everything you have, there's no point. I spend every single day being civil; I can afford one where I'm not."

He shrugs. He hadn't realized until now how much of a strain it was on him to go from being absolutely alone to trying to make nice with a whole school stuffed full of people.
