Tobias made a mental checklist of names: Satine, Iris, and Candy. He hung onto Iris's promise that he'd get the hang of this whole Football business soon enough.
Tobias suppressed a grin. A hyper baby? That would be interesting to witness.
Not entirely paying attention, Tobias was taken completely by surprise as the football came flying towards him. Whattodowhattodowhattodo? Tobias stuck a foot out, connecting his toe with the ball. The black and white patterned sphere flew off at a diagonal, somewhat in the direction of Satine. "Er...that was bad. Sorry."
The ball a safe distance away, he turned to Iris. "What about that dribbling bit Professor Lawson mentioned? How does that work? And am I supposed to use my toe to pass, because it didn't really work..."
Satine smiled nervously at Tobias as the ball rolled, no well kind of zoomed towards him. She was a little bit nervous about playing this soccer football thing. She wasn't athletic outside of dancing and this looked like a game of kickball on steroids. She glanced off towards the other groups to see what they were doing and then saw a blur of white and black breeze past her.
She looked at Tobias kind of lost, "
O, ummmm, I guess I should go get that." she said as she turned and ran after the ball that had stopped a few feet away. She tried to run as athletically as she could but with all her dance training it looked more like gliding.
Once at the ball she glanced at Iris,
"Okay, here it comes Iris." she said. Satine's right foot kicked up towards the back and then she brought it down as hard as she could trying to kick the ball and then
BAM!!!!
Satine had missed the ball completely and landed on the ground...flat on her butt...with a little...
EEP!!! as she fell...
When the shock wore off she glanced around quickly to see who had seen her. Her purple hair was everywhere and there was grass in it. After a few seconds, she quickly jumped up laughing almost hysterically.
Through the laughing, she quickly tapped the ball towards Iris direction. It didn't roll the whole and stopped a few feet in front of Iris, but Satine just couldn't focus after her fall. She quickly wiped off her robes and her legs of the dirt and ran, no glided once again, back to the group as dignified as she could while still laughing. She was still picking grass out of her hair when she finally stopped within her group.
