 Lovely™ | Captain Hurted | Ariana's Bane | Resident Antagonist | Unparalleled Delight
So this was it, today was the day. The first part of the whole point of that shiny red and gold badge that had been the source of Abra's MASSIVE ANXIETY but also most of his good feelings for the past few weeks. Tryout day, time to oversee the... well... the tryouts. Yeah. That.
As worried as he was about oversleeping or getting his time management spectacularly wrong and missing his own team's tryouts, the morning had so far gone off without a hitch. He'd accidentally woken up earlier than he needed to, had had a good breakfast, and was down at the pitch early enough that it was actually necessary to wait in the stands for half an hour or so. There were so few problems, in fact, that he was feeling suspicious, and feeling suspicious naturally made him anxious.
But literally everything made him anxious, so that was really to be expected.
Noticing the first arrival down at the pitch, Abra quickly packed up the playbooks he had been perusing (they had belonged to West and Alice once, and he found them incredibly interesting, if not mega useful) and headed down to join them. When he approached, reaching a trunk of supplies already set out and ready, seeing Beau, he gave him a broad smile. It was always easier to be relaxed around people he was already friendly with, and they had been on the team together the term before. Perhaps starting off this whole thing by being relaxed was another (suspiciously) good sign.
"Hi Beau, it's great to see you back at tryouts this year," he said to the younger boy, and he meant it. "I figured while we wait, we can do some stretches to warm up, that way once everyone's here we can all get up in the air as soon as possible." Because, you know, being in the air was the best part. People could join in the stretching as they turned up too, he would let them know what they were doing.
Also, should he mention the underwear?
... He wasn't going to mention the underwear. Nothing really surprised him with Beau Montague, but in a good way.
With that, Abra started stretching out his arms and his legs. He wasn't about to do anything mega strenuous himself, not while watching and assessing everyone else, but it certainly wouldn't hurt to loosen up a bit before getting up in the air.

OOC: Hi guys! Feel free to post your character arriving and joining in stretches and generally ~mingling~. I'll kick off the tryouts in about 24 hours. Remember you can go ahead and jump into things at any time once we've started, and there will be plenty of time to post.
