This is for my club: link here. This is for people interested in full-time, but if you want to just come for the first meeting, shoot me an owl.

Today was a day where Extressia had taken up the courage to make her own club. A puppetry club, so to speak. While she was no expert, she love to share her knowledge of puppetry for others to enjoy. She already registered her club and was approved, decided to put up posters around the school, and waited for a few days for responses, while she never expected the whole school to come at her doorstep, wanting to join, she at least wanted two-person to respond. But no one came, so taking more initiative, she decided to hand out her club poster. First she decided to go to the great hall, where there was going to be students, with a nervous smile she came up to the first person she saw. But there was nervounes feeding inside her.
"Why couldn't the waiting work? She signed sadly
"Here goes nothing" she thought
"Relax me, I can do this." she encouraged herself within her mind.
With a great big smile, she said:"Hi my name is Extressia, I just started this club and I was wondering if you want to join, or if your unsure, you can join for the first meeting, then decide after."

He had just finished going to the library, and he was rather disappointed, only because there were so many people. He sighed as he walked aimlessly, his legs barely keeping him up, he adjusted his glasses as he trudged on. The great Hall was crowded as well, I don't think I can take this much longer, he thought. He rubbed his baggy eyes, this is what happens when you don't sleep. Being tired while keeping up your appearances was so much work but to add socializing? He was on the verge of going mad completely barny, but he tried to keep his heid. Everyone was in a group chattering, they looked so happy... Like they were... NO! Don't even, he thought. He was lost so lost in his mind, he hadn't noticed the girl all alone holding posters, she spoke to him, he jumped bringing him back to reality.
"Och jobby!" He yelled quietly out of shock.
"Hi my name is Extressia," said the girl smiling.
She had short red hair, tall in height, and blue eyes that looked much like his mother's. To Thymus Quercus she looked much like a garden fairy.
"I just started this club," Extressia continued,"And I was wondering if you want to join, or if your unsure, you can join for the first meeting, then decide after."
"Nice to meet you Extressia, My name is Thymus Quercus Timerey," he said politely, his English accent aided with some hints of Scottish.
He took one of the posters Extressia was holding out, it was a puppeteering club. Interesting hobby, he thought to himself.
"A ventriloquist club?" He said. "Very intriguing... But I must say how unusual, not to offend. I have many rather odd hobbies as well. It's obvious you are having trouble, you see I love to help my fellow students out, but for a trade, to be fair."
He waited a moment putting his thoughts together.
"I will join your club," he said resting his hand underneath his chin, his pointer finger taping on his skeleton like face. "If you can solve this riddle, don't worry I'll give you a simple one, What is so fragile that saying its name breaks it?"
The corners of his mouth slowly rose, revealing his teeth covered with silver brackets. He patiently awaited Extressia's answer.

"I will join your club,"
Extressia smile excitly at the news, she was going to have her first member.
"If you can solve this riddle, don't worry I'll give you a simple one, What is so fragile that saying its name breaks it?"
That immediately downer her mood, she wasn't good at riddles. Her friend back home had ask a million riddles before, and she have not one of them correct. Now she was going to lose her first member. She scoured her mind for an answer. Maybe this has something to do with the club, maybe string, or maybe it was ego or knife. She had a feeling they weren't the right answer. She though long and hard for what seemed to be forever, when it proably was a few minutes. Anxiety run over her mind, making it even harder to think, which wasn't helping. She felt like she probably will lose a pontetial member over a riddle. She though about her friend back home, and she was sure he had an answer by now, and vaguely remember him aking her about this riddle.
"Wait a minute..." she thought. Her friend would have tell her the answer, so if she remeber his answer, maybe she answer it correctly. As she gain a new confidence boost, she search for that vivid moment. The vivid moment where he told her what it is:

It was in a classroom where they were waiting for the teacher to show, Astrid her friend was bored, playfully yawning as he turned his back toward Extressia, who was reading on some kind rabbit book.
"Hey Extressia." he called
"What it is Astrid?"
"What is so fragile that saying its name breaks it?"
After Extressia struggling for a few minute, the teacher came walking, peparing to teach today.
Astrid rolled his eyes toward her and the teacher:"I should let you struggle, but as always I be your bestest friend and tell you. The answer is..."

"Silence" Extessia cried out the answer in the great hall now feeling it was bright as the sun.
"What is so fragile that saying it's name breaks it, Silence." She beamed in confidence.
"Thank Astrid." she said in her mind

"I will join your club," the boy said smiling slightly revealing silver brackets.
Extressia beamed with happiness, but the setntence was unfinished.
"If you can solve this riddle," her happiness lowered, "Don't worry I'll give you a simple one, What is so fragile that saying its name breaks it?"
He fixed his glasses awaiting her answer, she looked stumped, she pondered and pondered and pondered some more. And she puzzled and puzzled til her puzzler was sore, she looked as if she was on the verge of either a break down or giving up. It had been several minutes, and Extressia was feeling the pressure, but he could tell that she wasn't going to give up. If she figures this out, he thought, I won't lie I'll be impressed.
She seemed a lot more nervous now, but Thymus held his position. That's when he saw the sudden hope, like a phoenix from the ashes, he remained unfazed.
"Silence," she said smiling so bright that the sun would be jealous. "What is so fragile that saying it's name breaks it, Silence."
He adjusting his glasses squinting at her.
"Pure brilliant," he spoke to Extressia, but he seemed to be somewhere else, "That is the correct answer, so when is the first meeting? I don't quite think you mentioned when the meetings are."

OOC: I'm glad your joining, add in your application to my puppetry club at the first post though, please.

Extressia signed in relief, her mind has worked itself that she wanted to go back to her dorm and relax. But through fierce determination she knew she still needed more members, so trudging on, she returned Thymus question about the location with an answer:
"The meeting will start in the rehearsal room. I will owl you when it happens, so I think I just need your name. I'm pretty sure you gave it when we met, but can you repeat it, please?
"Thymus Quercus Timerey" the boy said
"Thank Thymus, don't worry I won't forget your name." said Extressia with a hint of tiredness inside her, but it was happy tirednes. The same kind when you finally finished a homework that took a good chunk of time and effort.
Then she waved at the first member and quickly headed out to another part of the Great Hall, determination unwavering to recruit another, she begin to approach another lone student in hopes of them joining. She hoped it wouldn't involve a riddle this time. But she smiled triumphantly, as she quietly celebrated in her mind that she just got her first member.
"Thank god for Astrid's riddle." she thought. She hoped her friend was doing fine without her.

The thread is still happening as Extressia gathered new members. Just with a new person.
