The Emory boys were in the student lounge, a place where the other students and the like hung out. It was a good place for them to start getting used to being around people around their age for not just purposes of entertaining them. They boys had started going to class, but still felt some anxiety about it, trying to be high school students, when pretty much all their lives they had done home schooling. They had not actually gone up to talk to anyone and instead felt the need to practice their juggling. They may have not been living at the circus or putting on shows with their circus family, but their minds were still in the mindset of training and making sure that they would be ready for the next show. Each having four plastic balls in their hands that they were juggling; but the palls were not like ball pit plastic balls, but were filled with sand to give them a bit of weight so the boys would be working out their arms as well as their juggling skills.
"Ready?" Casper asked, to which his brother gave a nod as the two started to pass one another a ball every so often until they were both juggling together. It was easy to juggle by yourself, but to juggle with someone else you had to be in sync, tossing a ball at them at the right time, catching it, and keeping all the other ones up in the air. Your hands had to keep moving and your focus had to be on both the balls and your partner. Easy enough for the brothers since they had been doing it for a while, but even they made mistakes every now again. Even more so when they would juggle more balls or go faster. Today was one of those days when they would go faster. "Alright, speeding up." Jasper said as he started to juggle faster and of course Casper having to do the same in order to keep up. Yet his brother seemed to be really into it and was going a lot faster than they normally would. They were supposed to build right into, but Jasper was going full speed ahead.
Full speed ahead; that resulted in Casper missing one of the balls and ended up breaking the whole juggling chain. Balls dropping to the floor and the ones that were being currently thrown by Jasper, ending up either hitting his brother or flying past him. One such ball flying past Casper and hitting a nearby girl.
