"Well, Henry, as you know," the lizard man said, cracking a smile. "I'm from Canada, came here..." He said, getting lost in thought for a moment, counting back the years. There was last year, when he graduated, the year before that, when he caught the biggest shark on record in the academy waters, the year before that with the Dolphin rehabilitation effort that the school had done for charity, the one where he banged that one hot chick... It had been a while. "Damn, eleven years ago. I feel old now, and I'm only twenty-two!" he said, half to her, and half to himself. He, looked over as Alex approached, and gave a small smile. "Good afternoon. Welcome to the academy. I'm Dr. Olin, or just Henry. Whichever you refer to me as is your choice. I respond to both." He said, giving a warm smile to the girl. She just had this [i]aura[/i] of friendliness to her. He wished he saw more of that. Most of the students he had seen had very negative outlooks on things. He couldn't blame them, but it was nice to see something different. It was a breath of fresh air. He was about to say more when Jaska spoke up. "Oh, yes, of course Jaska." Henry said, standing up out of his seat and to his full, gargantuan height.

"I'll be back in just a few." He said, and was off, quickly returning with another plate of fish, but this time holding a wine glass of champagne . He set it down in front of Jaska. "If you want more after this, just go over and get it. Tell them Dr. Olin sent you." he said. "Excuse me, everyone. I need to go and address some other students. If I don't see you all again today, have a wonderful evening, and I hope you enjoy your stay here on the island." He said, giving them a smile. He sipped his beverage, before moving away. His tongue flicked casually behind him. He smelt smoke in that area, and he could guess why. But he couldn't do anything about it yet. One of them could potentially control fire, or smoke. And he hadn't seen any of them smoke yet, so he technically couldn't do anything about them yet. He was sure Vespera would've noticed him flicking his tongue every few seconds when he was in the area. The woman tended to have a knack for noticing things he did, as he noticed things she did. It was an unspoken respect between predators. She might consider him an apex, but he knew full well the lines of their unspoken food chain were blurry at best. He wouldn't be surprised if she challenged him to an arena battle in a few days or weeks.

Dana and Theresa were relatively easy to find. All he had to do was find the wheelchair, which was harder than you'd think at first, but he was able to figure it out after a few seconds of searching. As he approached, he noted a pink haired girl. She was thin, and had a good complexion, and was what most would consider beautiful. He felt like most of the people around were either hideous or handsome. Eh. He knew full well which of those categories he fell into. He was one handsome gator! "Dana, Theresa! Long time no see girls!" he said, announcing as he took a few steps forward. He didn't want to surprise them. He placed his free hand on the top rail of Dana's wheelchair, and took a small sip of his champagne. His eyes, which had currently been looking at both Dana and Theresa (one eye on each girl), looking over to Sydney, and focused on her. "And who might this be?" He said, giving her the most suave smile he could give for a lizard man. He probably failed miserably, or looked like a dork. Oh well, nothing broke the ice better than causing someone to laugh.
