The warnings were lost on Emily. She'd been chased by lynch mobs, hunted down by police, and occasionally accosted by common street thugs, but her abilities meant she could get out of pretty much any situation. After all, few could chase her in a storm cloud, and if she really got into trouble she could always take on her 'monster form' and send them running. Although perhaps the teachers here would be less impressed, she doubted she'd run into much more trouble here than she had anywhere else. In fact she almost wanted to get caught, just so she could show off how well she could get out of trouble. As such she merely shrugged as she continued into the building and hurried up the stairs, occasionally shouting down encouragement for the struggling centaur.

The view was quite nice, although not entirely to Emily's taste. This was the roof of the main building, and it looked down over the other nearby structures. To the right were the dorms, a fat building that looked like it had been there since dawn of time. The only thing that seperated it from fantasy artwork were the occasional silly messages sprayed on in the corners, and the odd sign of habitation. Towels hung out of windows, lights were turned on, and someone had hung a string of Christmas lights off of one of the gargoyles. Below were the main grounds of the school, where the students had thinned out as they found their quarters and roommates. Only a few still loitered, includinga wolf-kid who'd apparently gotten in trouble for something. The view extended far beyond however, revealing a landscape of grasslands spotted with the occasional clump of trees, eventually absorbed into a large forest. Emily had seen it before, and it hardly compared to many of the views she had seen from the tops of skyscrapers. All those trees just made her feel slightly homesick. But she hadn't come up here to see the view, but rather to show it off, and was pleased to discover her new friend's amazement. Although if this did amaze her so, that indicated a critical lack of fun in her life. Something Emily was eager to 'fix'.

Grinning, Emily accepted what she considered praise. Her life WAS pretty amazing. "You should come see the big city some time. They've got towers that make this school look like a mud hut. And elevators, too." There was a slight hint of mockery to her voice, but it wasn't intended in a mean fashion. It simply seemed odd to Emily that a creature with such powerful legs would have so much trouble with stairs, while she oftentimes didn't even bother to take them. "And if you've never been away from the sticks, I'll have plenty to show you. Get you some REAL hobbies." With a slight laugh Emily hopped onto the railing, holding her arms out for balance. As if rising to the challenge the wind picked up, which simply elicited a wider grin. "We'll make an interesting person out of you yet!"
