Ruomahl was now Blake. It would be hard to get used to, as a name is something one seems to become attached to, but it was not up to him. After all, he could not go around calling himself Ruomahl. He hardly looked the part. Looking at this hulking object that he was unaware of, he slowly figured out its use. It was very frustrating, as Blake's progress grueling progress seemed to grind to a near halt as he tinkered about with the strange, human-made object. Humans, lacking the power of magic, had only the imagination of magic to fuel their inventions. IT seemed that one of these inventions, the one which was before himself, was created using the methods of that cold craft, the discipline of science, to harness the power of natural phenomena and usher in the invention of this great human trinket. More to the point, he eventually read his e-mail.

Mictlantecuhtli seemed quite keen on adding to the list of disturbances he had already committed. He seemed uncaring for the grief upon which he had thrust upon Blake due to his own abrasiveness, but Blake would make him regret that. Perhaps not today, not tomorrow, not in a thousand years, but petty vengeance shall come one day. He would be required to take more than those few classes that Blake would have preferred to be enrolled in. Perhaps they did not even have a class for stick-fighting. If they did not, that would be truly disappointing.
So Blake modified his answers.

Classes: Calculus, Geometry, World History, Astronomy, Humanities, Literature

Blake would do as he would until there was a further need for this form. If they truly wanted his answers, they would come to collect. He left behind him this cesspit of mundane humdrum and slammed the door behind himself. He passed by Yosef and Bessie as he was heading towards the lobby, although he was unaware of their names at the time, and really was unaware of anything about them.

"Ah, hello you two, I hope I'm not interrupting anything," Blake said. "I'm sure it will be a pleasure getting to know you both. I've only just arrived myself, so I don't have much of an idea what to do around here."

For a moment, the young man pressed onwards towards the mailboxes, before looking back. His irises, plain as they were, glanced up and down at the both of them, as if he was viewing a piece of fine furniture. Was it normal for women to smile so much? While he was Down There, he spent most of his time pounding subjects into worthless shadows, most of them quite deserving of such punishments.

It was strange, to say the least, to see a smile on a person that wasn't caused by sadism or masochism.

"My name is Yosef; nice to meet you, Bessie. And...you are...?"

The question pointed at Blake. For a brief moment, Yosef's brows twitched into a frown, but be it by force of habit or purpose was left to dubious doubts.

She gasped softly, looking up to see a young. "I...I mean..." her shyness around males was kicking in and she gulped convulsively. He was rather handsome and she was always nervous around good looking people of EITHER gender. She just looked down and handed him her sketchpad, clutching her pencil so hard it was creaking in her hand. "It's...not very good. I need to learn more about...perspective and shading..."

@BytheSpleen @Aisling

"I...am Blake," he said. "Like I said, I'm new here. And you, then. Are you new as well, or am I alone in this? Whatever it is, I can only tell you that have just arrived here, and haven't really heard about much of anything. You were planning on going to the lobby, you said? Where is that?"

@BytheSpleen @ZB1996


"All of us just came today. After all it is opening day for this school. Why don't all of us walk up there together. It is at the front where we females came in at. It is not far and would make a nice walk, don't you think? Perhaps we can meet someone else on the way. Did you get a chance to read the folder or any of the E-mails yet?" Bessie asked as she smiled at both males.

Kosdar quickly figured out how the laptop worked and checked the only email he had. Boring, he had to take classes? Oh well, he relutctantly put down some random classes that might be vaugly intresting.

Class List
1. Dancing
2. Music
3. Fencing
4. Whatever
5. Art

Requirements were meant for those who needed them, and Kosdar needed nothing but himself. If they wanted a minumum then he would be sure to barely not meet it, just to let them know he was fully capable but had chosen not to. After a brief moment he made up a name for interaction with humans, after all he wouldn't grace them with his demon name at first encountar. Neven, it was a strange name but better than any human one, he quickly grabbed his cell phone and spent several minutes figuring it out before sticking it in his pocket. Neven stepped in front of the mirror smoothing his shoulder-length red hair back and stared at his own purple eyes.

At least he wasn't an ugly human, even if he was given pale skin, almost like the 'vampires' that he heard humans fawned over. He adjusted his repulsivly bright rainbow tie-dye shirt and simply glanced at his blue jeans making no changes to them. Well as he didn't want to wait here until decent clothes arrived Neven decided he looked barely presentable. Neven stepped out of his room and quickly found several others conversing. Well he would have to learn their names sooner or later so now was as good a time as any, "Neven." he said curtly not caring if he interupted anyone. "Give me your names."

Julia blushed more as another handsome young man came over. She gulped. "I..I'm Julia Robin. This is...Aaron..." And looked into his eyes. They were purple for crying out loud! She gulped again and looked between the two guys and started to tremble a bit.

@Eklispe

Yosef was definitely frowning now, but indulged the student his name with just as dreary a tone as the instigator of the conversation.

"Yosef."

His expression softened as he turned back to the two other students, and glanced down the hall towards the lobby. After moistening his lips and pursing them, he simply nodded.

"I did. The classes certainly did seem...odd, though. If it's a student to each room, then there aren't many pupils for a class, unless this facility forgoes the usual method of teaching.

...I mean, like public schools and the like. You know...thirty students to a single room, with rotating faculty or students?"

What a great way to play it casual. Dear God.

@Aisling@BytheSpleen
Aria shyly looked down. "I...don't have my laptop charged..." and fumbled a bit with her bag. She pulled out a pen and quietly drew on her hand. There were too many people near her and she was shutting down.

@Eklispe


Bessie glared at the newcomer. She was not about to just give some impolite idiot her name just like that,
"I think that you are totally rude which is why I am not giving you my name nor do I wish to be in your presence. " Bessie began to walk towards the Lobby.
"If the rest of you wish to talk to me, I am heading on my way. I do not put up with rude uncaring people that do not have any manners at all.
Yosef, I agree with you but maybe because this is an elite school that the numbers are small. I chose my six classes with no problem at all. I do hope that the items in the mailbox will be as interesting as they sounded in the E-mail.

I found my laptop on my desk, fully charged and ready to go. I think that I will get a new book bag when the stores open tomorrow. Tomorrow will be very busy day."

Neven sighed, at least one of the human girls treated him with proper respect, averting her eyes. The other though... so petty and rude. His eyes glimmered with a hint of anger before returning to a seemingly calm state. "Good enough." was all he said before stalking off, his intent was to visit all the buildings so that he could find them easily. Yosef, Julia, and the brat. Simple enough, after he made sure he knew where everything was, he'd be a fool to simply trust the map, then he'd see about socializing. More likely though he would just return to his room and get on the laptop or go to bed.

Aria shyly looked down. "I...don't have my laptop charged..." and fumbled a bit with her bag. She pulled out a pen and quietly drew on her hand. There were too many people near her and she was shutting down.

Yosef rolled his eyes at Neven, for sure, but a sidelong glance towards Bessie appeared for a brief moment too...before he turned to Aria.

"...um...well, you know where to find us. Bessie will be at the lobby, I will be...actually, I haven't the faintest clue as to what to do next. I'll probably with Bessie and...are you drawing something?"

Yosef paced a little closer, and stood on his tippy-toes to observe what Aria was trying to draw.

@BytheSpleen
She gulped. "A-aaron has it. I was trying to draw the park..." and looked down. She kept drawing little symbols on her hands.

She gulped. "A-aaron has it. I was trying to draw the park..." and looked down. She kept drawing little symbols on her hands.

At this, Yosef tilted his head.

"Aaron has...wait, who's Aaron?"

He was frowning again, and though the reason for doing so was quite obvious, it was a hard frown.

@ChristaEinheart@BytheSpleen

"Your drawing is great, don't beat yourself up over it. Perspective and shading, well that's why your here. I would be homered if you drew me something sometime."

Aaron says to Aria, exhuming charm with his friendly smile as he stands over her next to Yosef. He could see the discomfort growing on her face so he quickly returns the sketch pad.

"Room 18", he says with a wink before walking off past Yosef without saying anything. He just slips his earphones back in and heads back to his room.

@Dark Light@BytheSpleen
She made a little squeaking sound when Aaron winked at her and held her pad to her chest, looking down. "I...I..." She gulped and held the pad out to Yosef. "It's the park..." and tried to smile.

"People who are more direct than me," Blake said. "That is one thing that I do not envy."

He was impressed with the human girl Bessie, who held her ground, and her spirit, against this toothless brute of a demon depleted of all power and influence. He did not seem to realize it, judging by his forthcoming mannerism. He could not blame him for being angry, as Blake would remained thoroughly pissed for some time.

"I guess I'll come with you, you seem to have yourself put together," Blake said to Bessie. "Its not like I have anything better to do, since we've got plenty of food in advance. Who knows, maybe it'll help me with these years of pent up aggression and resentment."

@ZB1996

"Neven seemed to be an overbearing oaf who thinks he is better than anyone else. He doesn't have any manners at all or so it seems because all he did was blurted out his name then didn't even ask for our names. He demanded them! I bet he had a notepad to write things down in about each one of us!" Bessie spat out with a bit of anger in her voice.
"I'm sorry to have taken my anger out on you, Blake. I am normally not the angry type but people like Neven tend to anger me. I will need to ignore him.
Let's talk about the upcoming activities. Tomorrow is a Tea, then The Ball on Saturday and A Walk in the Park on Sunday. With those three events and doing the shopping, I will be quite busy." Bessie spoke more kindly now that she had calmed down.

She made a little squeaking sound when Aaron winked at her and held her pad to her chest, looking down. "I...I..." She gulped and held the pad out to Yosef. "It's the park..." and tried to smile.

Yosef nodded slowly, to try and avoid scaring Aria too much.

"Well...I'm not one to judge, but it does look nice...pleasing to the eyes."

With that, he spun on his heel and caught up with Bessie and Blake.
