The albino had a wide grin on her face, even as she lifted herself up from the ground and adjusting her glasses from their skewed position caused by the impact. [Color=pink]"Sorry, got a little carried away there,"[/color] Hana apologized, but neither her tone nor body language indicated that she actually meant it. The bespectacled teacher lowered a hand down to the Animal girl, offering to help her brunette student off the ground. If Gwen accepted her hand, the teacher would quickly rush to the airship with the girl in tow, the other students having recovered from their awe to board "The Blight". [Color=pink]"We can talk when we get on board. Mr. Sin will have a fit if I don't get everything over and done on the ground ASAP. We're sort of on a tight schedule, having only this single run to pick up the students for this academic year."[/color] [@greywolf375] [Center]----------------------[/CENTER] Meliona didn't know what to do. She had been no real help to the two kits, only bringing them disappointment as they were shot down by her one-armed friend. Fredrick seemed to be lost and confused, while Josephine left the area to lurk back in her own little world. The Kitsune wished that the social butterfly of the faculty, Hana Juniper, was here in her place. The albino teacher always had this spunk to her, this drive that drew others into her universe. No one was unimportant within her presence, and everyone was always smiling... Except for a few certain exceptions. The nine-tailed woman sighed, said tails wilting in her temporary state of self-consciousness, along with her furry, second pair of ears that jutted from her head. And so, the strange duo of a socially awkward Zombie and a currently depressed Kitsune stood in that corridor. One unable to speak in his ignorance of social cues, while the other ruminated within her thoughts, lost in what she wasn't good at instead of what she was. The Spirits could not comfort Meliona this time, as she was subconsciously keeping them away from her. [@Maria 127][@Eviledd1984]
