When I wrote this it was one chapter, but when I put in all the status plates, apparently it took too much space >.>
So technically you guys get two chapters today.
=========================================
Chapter 7: Exhibitionist (part 1)
=========================================
Getting up from their seats the group gathered up around Blake.
“So where do we go now?” Conner spoke up.
“Well,” Ophelia placed her finger on her chin. “it's lunch time now, so lets go eat somewhere.”
“There's always the cafeteria outside. Don't most students eat there?” Robin asked.
“Don't we have to pay though?”
“We're four Conner. Nobody is gonna pay. Our parents do by helping out the hunting.” Adam retorted.
“Let go then.” Robin said. With a nod from everyone, the group headed out to the outdoor cafeteria.
Getting in the line at the outdoor cafeteria, the group waited chatting idly while getting their food.
“School seems pretty fun so far don't you think Blake?” Ophelia asked.
“Yeah, it's really informative about how to use our skills. Plus the instructors seem really skilled. We can probably learn a lot from them.”
Nodding his head, Adam agreed. “Yeah, I thought it was so cool how Mrs. Kertenkela did all that in an instant. I can't wait to see what kind of moves we'll be able to do by the time we've learned everything.”
Adam's eye held a sparkle.
“I totally agree! Quick, efficient, and cool. I could learn so many different ways to prank people.”
Conner joined Adam in his reverance with a slightly different reason.
“They look like a bunch of kids.” Robin murmured.
“That's because they ARE kids Robin.” Blake retorted, apparently hearing Robin's voice.
The group grabbed their food and sat down at a round table. Blake sat next to Adam and Ophelia; Robin was next to Ophelia and Conner, and Conner was next to Adam. Conner, Adam, and Robin all got meat dishes while Blake got fish and Ophelia got a salad.
“So,” Ophelia said as she took a bite out of her vegetarian meal. “since we got time to look at our status plates now. Lets share.”

“Eh? Isn't it kinda personal? I'm not sure if I wanna do that.”
Adam gave Conner and Robin = Oi why are you looking at me? = a skeptical look.
Crossing her arms, her brown eyes stared into the soul of the red ones. “We're all friends here. There's no reason for us to hold out on each other. Don't tell me you're still hung up on what happened earlier?”
Adam's eyes stared back with a defiant look, but finally looked away from the piercing pair of eyes. Smirking at her victory, a fang was exposed in Ophelia's mouth. Meanwhile, in conflict over his pride, anger for losing, and logic, Adam weighed the pros and cons and then finally admitted,
“Fine. I'll do it, but only if every else does it as well.”
Nodding, Ophelia reached for her status plate, as did the others. With the sounds of the devices opening, five statuses were revealed on the table. Leaning forward, Robin scrutinized the other four.

School-life & Swordfights: A Clubs and Stubs Tale
Warning: Clubs and Stubs contains strong language and situations throughout that may not be suitable for younger readers. "This story takes place in a fantasy world with a modernish setting. It mainly follows four students of Hardires High School who are members of one of the greatest Team Arena Squads in the history of gladiatorial school athletics. Already two-time high-school world champions, they have entered their fourth and final year of high school in hopes of capturing a third straight world championship—something that no other school on the continent has accomplished. As they prepare for an upcoming match with a rival school, it becomes evident that keeping their two-and-a-half-year winning streak alive will be tougher than expected. As both personal and external problems abound for the student-gladiators, can they manage to keep it together under the constant pressure of being the perfect fighting unit? A blend of action, drama, adventure, and humor collide in this brand-new series!" Thanks so much for checking out my story! This is the first time that I've released any of my work to a public space so any feedback, be it positive or negative (but please be respectful if so) would be greatly appreciated. I'm hoping that this story is only the beginning of a long-running series of short stories set in the Clubs and Stubs universe. Temporary Book Cover Design by David Watson The release schedule is rather tentative, but the goal is to release a chapter every 2-4 days. I want to make sure that every scene is the best it can be before it’s released, so it may take a bit longer especially if it's a longer chapter. However, no chapter should take more than a week to be released. Each scene varies in length, but are usually between 1,000 to 2,000 words.

Meet the good-for-nothing anti-social NEET Jasper. Let's just say that he was born under an unlucky star, being wrongfully incarcerated in the galaxy's most infamous private maximum security prison, home to serial killers and many cut-throat criminals. Will Casper be able to prove his innocence and adapt to the cruel and oppressive prison system and rise up the food chain? --------- Alright. Before I start off, this is going to be my first fiction. It could be dropped anytime and there might be random hiatus inbound. This fiction is basically a first draft~ish.(?) So please pardon my two-dimensional characters or my shitty grammar or poor use of descriptive words in this fiction. Doing this purely for fun and it's going to stay that way. Let's take this step by step alright? [There isn't really a set in stone plot drafted so it might flop after a bunch of chapters lmao] Reviews with constructive criticism are appreciated, I will try my best to improve as we go along.
