As he walked, he tugged absentmindedly at the strap that held his runed stave to his back. He was still not entirely sure this wasn't some kind of joke, having been tossed from one "special needs" school to the next. But this place felt different. [i]"Maybe this place will actually take me seriously, instead of trying to convince me magic doesn't exist..."[/i] he thought to himself. Out of the corner of his he noticed what looked to be a confrontation about to happen, and wandered over towards Mason and Niko. "Don't leave me out now." He said, a mischievous smile appearing on his face.
