Open House

[ACTION]

[With the theater season officially open, the Divine Theater has little else do with the summer but prepare for next season's jam-packed schedule. However, preparation doesn't really bring in money, so, as they do every summer, the Divine Theater has opened its doors to summer classes! There is even word that those students who excel might even be considered for staff next season!

The first class is free in the hopes that they will bring in new students, in the hopes that people will sign up for more. The offerings are rather diverse.

Acting classes, both beginning and advanced; music lessons for singers and instrumentalists; conducting classes; beginning and advanced sewing and costume design; makeup; theater tech and lighting; beginning and advanced dance classes; stage fighting and choreography, just to name a few. There's a little bit of something for everyone here. The front desk ladies have even taken it upon themselves to start their very own beginner accounting class. It's cute, you should check it out

For those working around the theater, it was a busy time--maybe even more than when they were putting on productions. Cleaning to do, classes to help out with, and, of course, making sure any students don't go down secret hallways labeled "UNDER CONSTRUCTION" that totally aren't hiding their super secret base of operations nope nothing here to see folks.

Are you teaching? Attending? Helping out? Maybe just curious?]

[ ....how does she walk herself right into these things. Haruka doesn't let it disturb her cool, though. See, proof of focus. Right there. ] Warmups. Come with me and you learn the real thing.

[ Hmm. Baby has a plush, which it clearly likes, and does already look comfortable. But what if snuggling like that means it's cold? Then Cubchoo would be doing it a disservice by getting the blanket this far only to decide against it...

In the end, however, she brought this blanket over to put it on the baby. Not putting it on the baby would make her look ridiculous. So Cubchoo lifts it up into the baby's bed and very, very carefully tucks the blanket around the sleeping child. She even tucks it around the plushie so baby can sleep with her stuffed friend. There. Nice and maternal. She feels pretty pleased with herself. ] Cub.

[ Sweet dreams, baby. She will wipe her nose silently as she steps back. You're so cute. ]

[incousinswithyou]

Tempting. [real fake fighting or real focus? Because she likes it better when the latter is directed towards her.

Either way, she's terrible at resisting you.] Are you offering a babysitter?

[Sky seems to be doing okay, and Lulu is probably around somewhere.]

[actsmagnificent]

Choo! [ She's been caught! Cubchoo jumps a bit, then has to stifle a cough: she swallowed her sniffle. She hopes she's not in trouble. Or, can it be that Michiru knew the whole time she was looking after the baby....?

Haruka laughs. ] Come on. We'd better go mother some humans.

[ If you're okay with her babysitter, she'll accept the commission. It's good for the bear to learn to play nicely with others, even if those others are tiny. Maybe even "especially". Cubchoo is a hard, independent worker. She's getting there.

One handkerchief at a time. ]

[incousinswithyou]

[Sky gets a smile. Try your best, alright? Even if baby is sleeping and should stay asleep for a while yet.]

I'd like to see that. [she's not exactly planning on making herself useful in your class unless specifically asked, so it'll be your particular brand of mothering the kids will be getting.]

[actsmagnificent]

[ ...so, fathering.

Cubchoo is definitely a mother, however. Or a cool (?) big sister, sitting down to watch baby sleep, paws clasped across her knees with her back nice and straight, ready at a moment's notice for the child to need anything. You can leave it to her! Baby will have sweet dreams in her care!

Haruka turns away from her Pokémon, wishing her the best. Time to go be responsible herself. Alas. ] If they know what's good for them they'll have all gone home.

[incousinswithyou]

[have fun, Sky. She'll probably send Lulu around in a bit.]

With the way they were promoting this? [she'll stand up straight, partially turning around to look at you. Still holding onto your hand though.]

[actsmagnificent]

[ Haruka laughs. Touché - this was all just wishful thinking. ] We can't afford dreams, can we.

[ At least she can laugh about it, and is lightly mocking herself. Teaching won't be so bad if Michiru is there, though, even as a bystander. She squeezes her partner's hand.

Cubchoo makes a point of not looking over (much) as they leave the room. She has to show she's a good sitter to the end! ] Choo.

[incousinswithyou]

[she pauses, glancing up at you. And here. Have a hug and a squeeze.]

Some of them. [that's a secret smile into your shirt.

And then she's pulling away and will drag you along by the hand if you don't keep up. C'mon, Haruka.]

[actsmagnificent]

[ Yes, yes, she's coming, who's the racer here. Hopefully she'll be able to get this smile off her face by the time they reach the classroom. It might send the wrong impressions about how strict a teacher she is.

And with Michiru watching, Haruka intends to....give slightly more effort than normal, though still no more than necessary. The remaining students are still all female, though. As you do. ]
