[IC] Athalia Academy

[NaraK]

Cortez's face puffed up again.

"Yush, yush," she said, still trying to stick behind David, but straightened up when he stood next to her. "This landlubber needs some manners. He's a mean-lookin' landlubber. Bully."

Ryuu would have planted his face into a hand had it not been for him focusing on Adenine. Oh, if only the dunce in front of her would just say something! For some reason, the otaku was feeling tad bit annoyed by the way they were looking at each other, but he decided otherwise. If he was a troubled man, then technically, Ryuu was on the same boat with him.

The otaku sighed before barely walking over to the student he never met before. Actually, now that he thought about it, he did see him at the cafeteria, but only for a while. Still exhausted from the hectic events, the student wearing broken sunglasses said to the dark-haired student with a hand raised for a shake,

"Name's Ryuu. You?"

Wow, I actually managed to sound decent in that part...

...

...But I better get going to the infirmary soon. And I swear, if the doctor's crazy as well, I'm gonna go nuts.

Cortez, on the other hand, slowly began to inch behind David. Even though he was a friend of this "Ryuu," the pirate captain of the Screaming Pearl felt that it was safe to take cover behind him. She felt pretty safe, like she was hiding behind one of he crew mates.

"Are you hurt, mate?" Cortez asked, hoping that this student was not hurt. After all, he seemed like a good person. At this point, her confident voice had slowly begun to surface.

Meanwhile, Terotrax wondered why he was standing at the back gate of the school.

[Theobromine]

Kathy had honestly just expected Crash to slap some antiseptic on the cut and help put something on the cut to stop the bleeding. She was pleasantly surprised to find that he seemed to know exactly what he was doing, and he even cleaned the blood from the unaffected areas of her hand and arm. He was being far gentler with the wound than she would’ve been, and she felt her guilt gnawing away at her again. ‘He’s helping me, the person that hit him when he was trying to help everyone.’

“One of two things..?” She quietly repeated, surprised by the fact he was making a jest out of the situation. The grin on Crash’s face made her think that she would probably not want a clarification about his exact thoughts, unless she wanted the rest of her blood to rush up into her cheeks. His apology was even more unexpected and she quickly shook her head, “You didn’t do anything to feel sorry for. I just...” She could still remember the sensation when she slapped him. Her lips tightening into a thin frown she continued, “I’m really sorry. It hurt, didn’t it?”

Gasping once, she used her free hand to cover her mouth as the wound wash stung her right hand. She absolutely hated the feeling antiseptics gave. It took the remainder of her willpower and luck to keep from whipping her hand back from Crash as he cleaned the cut. Sometimes she thought the stinging from disinfecting the wound actually hurt more than when she got the wound in the first place. This was one of those cases, although it was probably because she had been too worked up to notice the cut properly back in the student center.

“This might need stitching...I wasn’t aware it was quite so big”

Breathing out another sigh, she quietly confessed, “It wasn’t. At least, not initially.” By the time Crash kept the swab pressed to her hand and kept her arm elevated, Kathy felt like crying. The kinder he was, the guiltier she felt and basically her emotions were in a mess. She kept thinking about how much she regretted slapping him, how nice and warm his hands were, the pain in her hand, and the fact her hand seemed dwarfed in his. ‘... I guess guys’ hands really are that much bigger.’ Under any other circumstances, she was sure her face would’ve turned tomato red from the contact. Crash’s claim about knowing how to stitch brought her back to reality as she couldn’t help but raise a brow in disbelief. Yes, he seemed incredibly apt in nursing wounds, but stitches were an entirely different realm. Finally meeting his eyes again, she could see some sort of expectation in them. Small knots forming in her stomach from the pressure, she decided to go with her own curiosity. “Stitches? Really? Come on, that seems like a bit much. Where or how in the world did you get good at it?” Kathy didn’t know it yet, but a small smile was beginning to form on her face, replacing the worried look she had on for quite some time. “If you can really do it, then why not? I dare you to finish patching me up.”

Before she could hear his answer, two familiar faces entered the infirmary. Criston and the vice-principle. A little surprised at how cold the usually kind VP sounded. Taking in a deep breath, she explained, “It... Was a fight. There was a tall white-haired guy that could breathe fire and smoke that attacked another student, then some sort of dark demon appeared out of nowhere and the two got into a brawl and...” She trailed off, not sure how she could explain all the chaos. Looking at Crash her eyes seemed to be asking for help.

[Legion020]

“He means well. As i said he can look a little over-excited and euhm…maybe a bit quick to say what’s on his mind. But he’s no bully.” He said. But he wasn’t really sure about it. He only knew the guy for a day.

Then she asked if he was hurt. David held his arm in front of him, looking as how the tips of his fingers finally turned from black to their normal color. Am I okay? This has never happened before. Maybe I should go to the infirmary. But what if it’s nothing? I mean, with the fighting and stuff the place is probably filling up with people much more in need of help. Maybe I’ll jump in over a few days. he knew it was an excuse he told himself. He would never go to the infirmary. Never the less he looked rather puzzled at his arm. But then lowered it again and smiled at Jeanne. “I’m fine, thanks for asking.

But his self-confidence began to ebb away. He was already an Adrenaline Addict. His body had formed itself to that in the past few years. That meant that even with the littlest bits of excitement his body began to make the stuff. The advantages were often that he didn’t think about self-esteem or stuff like that for a moment. The drawback was that that effect vanishes over time. And that was what happening now. “I-I’m sorry.” He then said. He was getting it all together and realized to who he was talking. He wasn’t really used to talk to girls. “C-Can I ask you a question.” He managed to say. At least you’re not saying stupid stuff as this morning…YET. he thought.

[NaraK]

Cortez grinned. She was finally having a natural conversation! At least, someone who seemed pretty normal. It felt great to be acknowledged by others. It was just a natural trait of hers to enjoy getting the appreciation of people, but she had never felt it as often as she was now. She gave David a toothy grin when he told her that he was fine.

The boy then asked her if he could... ask her a question? Slightly confused at why he would ask to ask a question, the pirate captain puffed her chest out in pride, that puff of cheeks completely out of her face.

"Aye! Fire your cannons, matey!"

Meanwhile, Terotrax found himself standing nearby the infirmary. He apparently wanted to make sure that everyone injured was treated, but true to his honest thoughts, he really had nothing to do. The DJ turned his boombox on at a quiet volume, apparently enjoying the hip-hop music coming out of it. Today was his first day at the academy, and things were already exciting enough for him to enjoy!

Seven

Oddly the lion looked at him sternly not like the lion in the circus, well not every lion can be the same but he missed that lion. “Just Seven?” Litle feather asked, he nodded while licking his paw…HAND. “Happy to meet you Seven the Cheshire Clown” She announced while bowing her head slightly. ‘HHmm do people always bow their heads, how interesting!’ His ears flickered as the girl moved towards a lady and asked if the lady needed any help. With his Cheshire cat grin he looked at the lion.

“Hello there Mr. Lion, how do you do?” Then he slowly turned back to his original form, a small little purple cat with a split tail. ‘Small little cat that is me but lets to talk the big kitty!’ He hummed in his head. He now was able to see a large lion right beside him. “Better now? I am covered up.” He scratched his ear with his foot.

Zivon

…
….
…..

“Mmnn…mmnnn….uuhhhhh”

He slowly opened his eyes, first it was bright then the light adjusted to his eyes. He got up slowly, he was still a bit dizzy and somethings were a blur. He tried to remember what happen, some guy…Allan had smashed…Dani on the table, panic, scary looking thing ran towards Allan...fire, loud noises, purple smoke…He slowly tried to paste a picture of what had happen before. For a while he realized he was on a bed, “Wh...ere…am I? ” He muttered out as his vision was slowly coming back. He was thirsty and his stomach growled louder, right…he didn’t eat yet at all…. He then noticed that Kathy, Crash and Oona was there, he couldn’t hear or properly see what they were talking or doing but he tried to. It looked like Kathy got hurt and Crash was helping to fix up the wound…

“Hhhmmm…?” He thought he heard another voice it was much deeper and slightly familiar….

[FaithsRose]

Little Feather

Lion looked at Seven as he floated in front of him, his blue eyes studying the strange creature as he spoke to him. I’m not sure about this one Little Feather... Lion grumbled low in his throat. He flinched back as Seven changed in front of him into a small purple cat with a split tail, Lion lowered his large head and sniffed at Seven questioningly as he lifted his foot to scratch his ear. Much better He grumbled, suddenly aware Seven could probably understand him now. Oh good...I’m talking to a cat. Tell me ‘Seven’ how is it you can become human? Lion took the opportunity to question Seven.

Crash

Crash just continued to grin as she quietly repeated what he had said, though he frowned as she apologized a second time. He looked up at her for a moment, he really needed to work on his perception... “It’s ok...I think I kind of needed it, things were getting a bit out of control” He shrugged, smiling. “Yes it hurt, if you’d of punched me you probably would have dislocated my jaw” He grinned as if he was happy or impressed by this fact. Though he did find himself flinching as she gasped, working as quickly as he could to end her discomfort.

Crash nodded looking up at Kathy as she answered his question, part of him wanted to query how it had gotten worse but he knew now wasn’t the right time to being throwing questions around. He took the chance whilst he was holding her arm up to glance at Zivon making sure he was definitely still breathing. He looked back at Kathy’s hand held between his own, looking up as he threw the suggestion of stitching the wound himself out into the open, he saw her brow raise in disbelief which made a smile slither across his face.

“Stitches? Really? Come on, that seems like a bit much. Where or how in the world did you get good at it?”

“Yes really, I can stitch wounds shut” He repeated, watching a smile tug at her mouth. “I had a friend who believe it or not got into more trouble than I did” He admitted, with a sheepish smile. He was about to reply to her when he felt movement behind him, he stood up carefully releasing Kathy’s hand as he moved over to the cupboard, hearing Kathy begin to explain as he searched for a sterilized needle.

Crash’s expression shifted to one of unease as the VP spoke to them with a cold and calculating voice he had just found a sterilized ‘atraumatic’ needle. He glanced at Kathy as she began to explain to the VP what had happened, he caught her look and instantly jumped in to help out. “Everything got out of hand really quickly. The white haired guy started on another student called Dani from out of the blue, a few of us stepped in to help and it just kind of spiraled from there” Crash explained. “Some of us were a little too...confrontational with the white haired guy and it just made him angrier, Kathy took Dani out of the way. We had hoped it would keep him safe whilst we tried to calm the other guy down...then a huge horned demon ran into the room, aimed straight for the white haired guy. I’m sorry sir, but after that everything got really out of control and I can’t recall the exact details. Somewhere along the line the two of them made a hole in the student center floor and set things on fire, I think the majority of people tried to either get out of the way or help. That’s all we know” Crash finished his explanation, crouching back down next to Kathy.

He glanced up at Zivon as he sat up, though his hands were full by now the needle forceps holding a needle and a pill in his other hand which he placed on the table reaching over and grabbing a plastic cup with water."Hey Ziv, how are you feeling?" He asked Zivon concern apparent in his face as he once again crouched down in front of Kathy holding his hand out patiently towards Kathy, still aware of the VP he wasn't meaning to be rude but he was also aware he had to focus to do this right. He had already clicked the needle into a pair of needle holders and was prepared to accept her challenge to stitch her wound closed. He had lowered himself onto his knees by now to make sure he could stay steady enough; he placed the needle down for a moment reaching for a tube of lidocaine, glancing back at Criston and the VP.

[Sukui]

Isse grinned while facing away from the glasses-boy at the moment, before turning his head around and revealing the same blank face he had earlier. Anedine now somewhat regretted calling him out due to the degree of creepiness of how he looks (and probably will act), but keeps silent for now. There, Anedine kept her expressions well hidden unlike earlier, just giving off a glance on Ryuu and the dark-haired boy meeting.

She remembered her days as a student government president back in her junior high days. Aside from receiving tons of love letters in that time, Anedine also frequently expressed concern with those she had known to be depressed by any degree, and gained further schoolwide and neighborhood fame after stopping two girls in separate situations from even committing suicidal acts. She remembered the times she was known as a reliable person, and to now she wants to continue being in that name.

Isse spoke.

"So that girl gave me your attention, right?" He leaned back on the wall, with a leg raised. "Thanks, Ryuu, and uhh, that girl back there. Who is she?"

[Theobromine]

Smiling gratefully as Crash took over in explaining the party’s events, Kathy kept the cotton pressed firmly into her hand as he had been doing. Vaguely listening to his explanation to the VP she wondered, ‘Just what was going on back then..?‘ The glowing eyes, protruding canines, and the purple smoke all seemed to indicate that the shape-shifter was going to transform into something. But the amount of sweat and heavy breathing she saw could not have been normal. Taking the opportunity Crash when he was momentarily distracted by Zivon’s awakening, she stared at Crash’s face without letting him notice. ‘No. I can’t ask. Not right now.’ He finally seemed like he was back to his normal self again. She couldn’t bring herself to ask and potentially ruin his mood like before.

Turning her attention to Zivon she answered him, “You’re in the infirmary.” The noticing that he was still in a daze she added, “Do you remember what happened?”

‘Oh dear…’ Seeing all the preparation, she realized that Crash was calling her bluff and really did intend to stitch her wound closed. ‘A needle is going to be poking in and out of my skin and- I can’t watch this.’ Eyeing the lidocaine, Kathy hoped it would help prevent her from screaming out and losing all dignity in front of the mini-audience around them.

Taking in a deep breath, she placed her hand in Crash’s , looking visibly nervous. “T-Tell me when you’re done.” She knew she was being illogical. She had no trouble making the wound worse by digging her nails into it or seeing the blood come out of it, but she couldn’t look at a few stitches being placed into her skin. Closing her eyes and gripping the hem of her dress tightly with her other hand, she asked, “Crash, can you… Can you say something while you do that? Anything. Laugh at me right now, tell me a story, talk to Zivon, something. Just please don’t stay silent.”

[Animelover_princess]

Oona - infirmary

after she allowed the bigger man, she had figured out his name was Crash, or at least everyone called him that, to take zivon she didn't feel quite so bad and she quickly followed the girl out of the building.

it was getting dark so at least she didn't have to worry about the sun making her any worse.

they made it to the infirmary without any incident, she wanted to make sure zivon was alright before she went and dealt with her problems. at that point she realized that both of the other too, Crash and the girl, were hurt more then she had thought. she hurriedly filled a glass she found with water as the 2 explored cabinents and apparently were deciding whether to stitch up the girl's wounds.

after getting Zivon into the bed. the 2 talked for a little while, Oona just sat by Zivon's bed, forcing herself to take small careful drinks from the glass, so as not to hurt herself worse, she felt a little better but she knew she would have to get to some natural water soon.

Zivon started to wake up.
"hey" she said, quietly.

after a minute or 2 the others decided they were going to stitch up the girl's arm, so Oona turned her attention to Zivon
"hey, you aren't in any pain are you? do you need anything? i can get you some water"

[Destinyfailhorror17]

Zivon

More things were getting clearer and clearer. He could finally see, there was everyone he had remembered before, Oona Crash, Kathy…but where is Dani?...is he okay? He blink a couple of times, still fixing his vision. “You’re in the infirmary.” He heard Kathy answered…right he asked that. “Do you remember what happened?” She asked all he did was he shook his head. “N…o” He remembered tib bits but really that was all. He looked at Kathy and saw a gash on her hand. “A…re..you….oka..y?” It looked big and painful.

"Hey, you aren't in any pain are you? Do you need anything? I can get you some water" he slowly turned his head to see Oona, he then again shook his head and looked up at the ceiling. “No…sti..ll alittle…daz…ed…bu..t good…Wat..er would….be…ni..ce” His throat felt parched, he was really getting dizzy again, a lack of food probably. “Wha..t abo..ut you? Are...you...okay?”

Seven

“Whats wrong Mr. lion?” He asked as the lion was sniffing him. He titled his head while examining the large creature; he jumped higher and higher until he was about where the lion’s head was and bop his head with his paw. “Mr. Lion!” He shouted happily, he guess he was feeling homesick, he did miss Neyo, the circus lion back home. “Oh good…I’m talking to a cat. Tell me ‘Seven’ how is it you become human.’ the lion asked, Seven licked his paw and yawned before lying down on air. “ Well this is what I really look like! It just happens! Who knows what it is but its fun. Being human is quite interesting I have to say a life, as a human can be a great show, drama, comedy, romance, horror, tragedy! All of those wonders fill my days with enjoyment! It’s a mystery how I can become human but only for a short eight hours but of course I might say I am a Bakeneko.”

[HylianRose]

Criston and Brako - Infirmary

Brako simply nodded his head at their explanations. He would have preferred a name but he didn't want to bother them any longer. He knew Allen was one of the persons at fault, but the demon. His eyes narrowed as he racked his brain for a demon going to this school. There were a few but why would one attack? To save the other students? That wasn't very characteristic of them. He took in a deep breath and with tired eyes turned to exit the room. He'd have to find Allen on a later date.

As he left, he spoke over his shoulder, "You take good care of them Kiwi."

Criston felt his entire body shiver, goose-bumps forming along his skin. He swallowed and jumped up, his fear of Kiwi suddenly apparent. "Uhh... You guys have fun... I'm ganna go back to my room. Where... Kiwi isn't." He told them, his voice crackling slightly. He waved at the students in the infirmary before running out after Brako. He went back to his room to find that it was untouched by the flames and with a smile on her face, he went to his bathroom and got ready for bed.

[Animelover_princess]

Oona - infirmary

“No…sti..ll alittle…daz…ed…bu..t good…Wat..er would….be…ni..ce” Zivon said.
Oona smiled "i'll be ok, just..." she had to think of a way to downgrade it for a second "i just need some water too, i'll go get you some, alright? i'll be right back"

and she stood and managed to find another glass in the infirmary and returned to the fountain to fill it.

she returned, and carefully held the cup "i'm not sure what to do now, can you drink it on your own, or...?"

[Driving Park]

Carmen - in the room that until recently was a party

While Carmen appeared to be conscious, sitting on the stage with her eyes open, her mind was totally vacant in almost a trance-like state, exhausted from what had just transpired. It took someone else interacting with her to snap her out of the trance. She looked up to see...a very elaborately dressed girl, a lion, and a clown that was also a cat. A cat clown. A clown cat. Carmen blinked. Sitting there for a few seconds processing it, she realized the ridiculousness of her being surprised at the scene in front of her after what had just transpired. The girl had asked her “Hey, need any help?” as she moved over to Carmen. Carmen, after processing all of this in her head, finally responded. "Yes...I think so. Thank you," she replied, managing a small but genuine smile. "I was only physically and mentally exhausted...not injured. Speaking of which...where is everyone?" She looked around to see a completely empty room other than the handful of people immediately around her. A completely empty room with a burning hole in the ground. Nice.

Carmen was about to speak again when the naked clown cat cat clown transformed into a small purple cat. She caught herself before reacting this time. "Pardon me, I've been rude," she said abruptly to the girl, referring to the fact that she had been sitting down. She began to stand up but fell back down. "Never mind...looks like I'll be waiting here a little longer," she said, still softly smiling. "I appreciate you staying to care for those of us that are still here. What's your name? I'm Carmen." She extended a hand out to shake the girl's hand. Carmen paused. "And - if you don't mind me asking - is that...your lion?" She figured she would wait to talk to the cat clown clown cat until he was done talking to said lion.

[NaraK]

Ryuu was tempted to frown, but he did the opposite. He barely managed to put up a grin, letting one of his eyes twitch. Could this guy not see that he was raising his hand for a handshake? A handshake between men? Or perhaps, he was not manly at all. Clearly, if one did not accept the code of handshaking, then that person was a p--sy.

...Okay, so maybe he was thinking too harshly. Still, how could this guy not read the mood and start speaking the truth? Actually, he was surprised by the fact that this student managed to predict Ryuu's reasons correctly in the first place. He, after all, was not that predictable in most cases. With an eyebrow raised, his grin still intact, Ryuu lowered his hand.

"Yeah? Yeah, she did." The otaku said, still quite exhausted by what just occurred in the student center. "Her name's Adenine. Really good girl. She saved my life... kinda."

Ryuu stiffened when he remembered just what made him scream "Hail Maria" in his head.

"Yup. Definitely a good girl."

Cortez seemed to shrink unintentionally, despite the fact that she was now feeling a lot more confident. Ryuu took note of her, nearly rolling his eyes before telling Isse,

"That guy's David, and that red-haired sailo- I mean, pirate captain, is Cortez, apparently."

The otaku wondered if Isse had anything else to say. Maybe take note of why his sunglasses were busted up? Or at least say something really interesting?

[Sukui]

"So... Anedine, eh? Pretty sociable." Isse wrapped his arms around Ryuu's and shook it. He let out a little smug breath, coughed for a second, then continued. "Handshakes are sh-t." He tightened the grip further. "Care for a cafeteria break tomorrow, by the way?" The busted sunglasses were too uninteresting to comment on, at least for him. Though the David guy's black hand caught his eye, to which he stepped closer to.

"Mind what's this power of yours?" His hands seemed as if he wanted to touch David's, but thinking of any possible dangers, moved on to Anedine.

"And what we have here, a little girl in Athalia. Or maybe just slower aging? Anyway, it's a chance you..."

"What?" Anedine trembled and blushed slightly.

"...may get along with Ryuu very well."

She blushed more after he had finished. Anedine began to be afraid of the boy more. Sure, it was his interest to know more, but everything he said, and the way he spoke just sounds... creepy. Still, she stood there, still able to resist the urge to move away even if for just a bit.

"And this pirate girl. Pretty nice choice of clothing, by the way." Isse finally said as he moved on to the last one in the group, Cortez.

"So, greetings! I'm Issender Archus-Essev, and maybe you can just call me Isse."

[Animal]

Kiwi - Infirmary

"I will do my best sir!~" A voice called out in the backroom responding back to the vice principle. The doctor was already preparing a lethal injection for her patients, well lethal in a sense that it would just render them unconscious.

The door was kicked open and a woman stood there holding a large syringe in her hands filled with some type of green liquid. Her eyes scanned the room deciding on which victim to work on first, at the same time she made a buzzing noise with her mouth just to tense the situation even more.

Her eyes stopped when a boy entered the room holding onto an injured girl.

"YOU THERE!" She shouted and pointed the needle at the two. "I'll take that girl off your hands, thank you very much! Step aside!" She said dashing over at the two and pushed the boy aside with her hips in a rather comical manner. She caught Lily in midair then brought her over to one of the empty beds, roughly dropping her on the mattress without a care in the world. She then reached underneath taking out two straps and restrained Lily down on the bed making sure she would not escape from the horror to come.

"This girl looks like a screamer..." She stated in a disturbing tone as she reached over closing the curtains, leaving only a shadow show for the students to see. Kiwi removed Lily's shirt and took a quick look at her injuries silently. Poor girl...she has such smooth skin... She thought as everyone would watch her spin the oversize syringe just above her head and stuck it painfully into Lily's chest where her wound was. If she was conscious now...then she wouldn't be anymore...

The special green liquid that Lily was injected with started to take effect. Noticeably, her burns were slowly disappearing and the wound on her chest was closing up in rapid healing succession. The head throbbing pain would lessen, but she would still have a moderate headache that she would have to inform Kiwi about. Overall, Lily will be just fine. The students would hear Kiwi whistling as they watched her shadow stitch up the remainder of Lily's wound and spray it with disinfectant.

[Destinyfailhorror17]

Zivon

"I’ll be ok, just..." Oona stop for a moment there but then she said, “I just need some water too, I’ll go get you some, alright? I’ll be right back" He nodded while still trying to fix his memory. He still had a hard time, that noise…that loud sound really stung in his head. Oona came back with another glass of water. "I’m not sure what to do now, can you drink it on your own, or...?" She sort of asked. He slowly grabbed the cup even though his hands were a bit shaky and sipped it.

“I...can...d..o...this…” He replied as he continued to drink even more. “Uuumm…I..am kind…of…hu...ngry…” Then his stomach growled louder.

[Animelover_princess]

Oona - infirmary

she was relieved when Zivon took the glass and slowly sipped it.

when he said he was hungry she realized she was too, she hadn't had anything since breakfast, she was too busy getting fruit out of her hair.

"i don't know where i'd get anything" she looked around at all the other people "i'm pretty hungry too"
after another quick glance around the room she said "maybe the nurse will know?"

[NaraK]

"...Uh, sure, I guess," Ryuu said, an eyebrow raised. This guy was certainly yet another weirdo, he could tell, but... he was at least not like that fool who crashed the party. In fact, while he was creepy in a way, Ryuu did not exactly feel intimidated by this student.

Alas, his defensive mechanisms for Adenine were extremely high.

...

...So when Isse decided to go ahead and be a little tease, Ryuu froze deathly still.

He barely managed to seethe out with a flushed face behind the student, "I just met her today..."

Cortez gave a toothy grin at the compliment, a light blush forming on her cheeks due to the praise. She had the tendency to have blood rush up to her face whenever someone she did not know of complimented her. It just sort of made her feel happy.

"And I you, Isse!" Cortez said in a strange fashion, still hiding behind David for no reason at all. "Speaking of which, methinks that we should set sail for the infirmary!"

Indeed, Ryuu did have a fairly battered body The otaku wanted to protest, but he did not want to look like a try-hard bad-ss in front of Adenine, David, and even Cortez. And maybe Cortez could have some of those stupid, small bruises her body earned at the "party," which ended up barely qualifying as one.

Teroteax remained nearby the infirmary. He was not really feeling that sleepy, and maybe he would be able to find his roommate! Needless to say, he was keeping himself well-occupied with his boombox.

[Sukui]

Isse's heart lightened with the small talk he had received. Now, however, he was becoming a bit drowsy-- a small side effect of his dependence on the sun for his abilities, sleeping earlier than everyone else.

"Aye, don't take me as a weakling, but i need some sleep now. I'm more drowsy than the other people in this time of the day, mind you." Isse extended and waved his hand to the group, then walked to the direction of his dorm room where he was soon to dive in the comfort of his bed. He was ready to fluff his pillow, wrap himself in a blanket, and go for a good, long night's rest.

Anedine waved goodbye to the boy as he left in the southern direction of the corridor. She turned to Cortez and gave a nod of agreement, but then asked a question. "What's with the infirmary, anyway? Do we have another person there to meet, or is someone hurt? I can do the healing, it just takes thirty seconds for a cut to treat.

Side Note: Isse will not be used until the morning timeskip occurs, that is, if he has been let to sleep .This is for the purpose of better management of characters, but one can interrupt him from taking a rest if they like me to use Isse more.
