[IC] Gimme a Beat!

[LadyTale]

Another year, another orientation. Janet only just suppressed a sigh; as a senior student, she was supposed to be a good example. She snorted. That was plain silly. She was dressed in black leggings tucked into black knee-length boots and a dark blue tunic that was rather fitted. Pushing the clothing limits, yes, but stylish.
The orientation wouldn't start for about 20 minutes, but Janet was leaning against the wall of the main hall, arms crossed, one leg braced against the wall. The look on her face radiated not interested, but she was pretty sure some boy would try to hit on her nonetheless. This time, she was unable to suppress her sigh.

Benedict was already inside the main hall, as Headmistress Nightingale usually asked the main teachers to say a few words. He exchanged smiles with the Empath and Healing teachers, nodded to the Calming teacher, and flipped off the Combat teacher. Anyone new would think that Benedict and Arthur, the Combat teacher, were enemies; however, they were actually close friends, in a strange way. They insulted, irritated, and poked fun at each other, but let anyone try to hurt one in any way. The other would make them regret it.
Arthur flipped Benedict off in return, then smirked and turned away. Benedict felt a smirk curve his own lips. He had missed this over summer break.

Today was the first year for vocalist sonomancer Kristi Noro, who had discovered her sonomancy powers at just ten years old. She hasn't done anything with her powers as of lately, and is curious on this cool and unique magic that is inside of her. When she was accepted into the academy she was genuinely at the most excited of her life, that she could learn new things with her abilities. Kristi was wearing somewhat formal attire, but she moves around in it easily and quickly, maybe due to her height being short? She had blonde hair that was put up into a ponytail, cyan eyes and pale skin.

Kristi wore a blouse top and a dark grey vest, to top it off she put on a red bow to give a cute little feeling to the clothing. She also wore a skirt that was the same color of the vest, it had a strip of white running down the bottom of the skirt. To top it off she had stockings to her knees, and some running shoes at the bottom due to her being so energetic. At home she would usually just walk around wearing a t-shirt and long pants, but this seemed like such a special and unique occasion for her to wear this attire.

As the orientation wouldn't start for twenty minutes or so, Kristi decided to wait outside in the sun, it was a little bit chilly that day after all. She was tempted to sing, but she wanted that to wait for the classes that she was in, so that they could experience her voice firsthand. Kristi stretched her arms as she was lying down on the grass, she looked up at the sky and smiled before sitting up.

"I am so excited!" Kristi grinned as she said to herself, she reached a hand up and turned it into a fist in determination.

[LadyTale]

Looking over at one of the newcomers, Janet smiled slightly. She had never been quite that eager, but then again, eager wasn't her style. Maybe this girl would be bearable. With a mental shrug, she walked over to the girl and sat down next to her, stretching out one leg, bending the other, and resting her arm on her knee. "Hey." She greeted. "You new here?"

[Urbanliner]

"Finally." Another newcomer positively muttered as he entered the school grounds.

He was filled with excitement, with the fact he did not need to take an exam to enter the school making him more positive. While he isn't a fool, he is not the smart one. There were unique schools around where he lived and he was in one for a year, but the academy he was invited to eclipsed all of them in uniqueness, with the "Sonomancy" deal only adding to the uniqueness. He wished he could finally have a romantic moment in the academy, as he didn't have one earlier.

Although he was wearing his previous school's summer uniform without the school badge, which was composed of a white dress suit with a blue tie, a straight black pants with a gray belt, and a white athletic shoes with white socks.

He looked at a clock which happened to be nearby, realizing he had 15 minutes until he should head to the main hall early. He decided to use the time to briefly roam around the school without any guidances, having some brief chats with others, mostly newcomers with some older people thrown into the mix.

@LadyTale

Kristi noticed that an older girl had come to her, she took a look towards her and smiled kindly before bringing her arm back down. She noticed that she had brown hair and brown eyes, and also that the fact that she was much taller than Kristi. She then sat up as the girl sat down next to her, probably wanting to engage into a conversation with Kristi. Her sun rays were shining against the two of them, bringing out Kristi's somewhat obvious blonde hair.

"Yeah, I'm a new student here." Kristi replied to the older girl, but looking up at the sky and then back to her. "Or what you would call a beginner Sonomancer in my case, I just love to sing and play games." Kristi added on to her sentence, she continued smiling at the girl kindly.

"What's your name? I'm Kristi." Kristi introduced herself to the girl.

[Natsu]

Aki shuffled into the main hall, feeling excited about this new school, but remaining in control at the same time. She glanced around the room, as she realized she still had a fair amount of spare time before Orientation started up. Aki shrugged and heard two people talked to one another behind her. One of them was apparently a new student like Aki herself. Not wanting to be rude, but also wanting to make sure that she could have some social base here, she turned around, and decided to join the two, if they would allow it.

"I'm new here too," Aki piped up after Kristi, and gave a hopeful smile to the two," My Name's Akiro, but you can call me Aki." She added," Sorry for interrupting," She said, tapping her foot and holding her arms together, giving off the vibe that she was slightly nervous, hoping it would cover her enough to keep them from getting upset at her for her abruptly joining in.

[LadyTale]

"Pleasure." Janet looked up at Aki, the same small smile on her face. "I'm Arianna, call me whatever you want. I've been coming here for years." She looked from one girl to the other. "What are your specializations? If you don't mind my asking."

[WaddleDaisy]

@Natsu@LadyTale

After introducing herself to the girl, another one walked up to her and she smiled at her. This new girl introduced herself by the name of Akiro, but she'd prefer to be called Aki. Kristi noticed that the girl was apologizing for coming in the middle of their conversation, but actually it isn't even bad at all, she gets to meet a new student just like herself. "No need to apologize my friend!" Kristi said to Aki with a big grin on her face in happiness, she didn't want Aki to feel nervous or uncomfortable around them so she just smiled, she was told smiling gives lots of joy to people right?

Kristi looked back to the girl who came to her first, she introduced herself as Arianna, and that she had been coming to this school for a couple of years. That sure was a pretty name. Kristi was then asked about what specialization she was, so she breathed in and decided to go first from the two of them.

"My specialization is Empathic, which is you know... to manipulate emotions and such." Kristi said as she put a hand to the back of her own head while she looked at the other two sonomancers.

[LadyTale]

"Cool." Janet smiled slightly. "My specialization's Combat. Which you might see in action, if those boys go any further than looking." She shot a glare at said boys, who were quite obviously checking her out, giving a chuckle when they gulped and turned away. "Must be new. Returning students know better."

[Urbanliner]

"And there's a crowd over there..." A certain newcomer muttered.

After chatting with some of the people the school has to offer, the newcomer arrived at the main hall, where people should be in after 15 or so minutes. Glancing around, he found a small crowd of people chatting, out of many people in the hall. They seemed to stand out from the others for unknown reasons.

He walked closer to the crowd, noticing it didn't have any males in it. He stood somewhat close to the crowd, yet with enough distance to not seem like he is in the crowd. He didn't knew if he could join, so he didn't talk to them, waiting shyly for the crowd to invite him.

[Natsu]

Aki smiled back at Kristi, happy that she was included. She started to drop her nervous act a little bit, especially after hearing that the girl next to her was Empathic. " That's so cool," She said, but was slightly concerned by the moral implications of her being able to control emotions. " But you don't use it for Evil, right?" She checked, before adding," That being said, I specialize in Influence, though I honestly try not to use it." She admitted

[WaddleDaisy]

@LadyTale@Urbanliner@Natsu

Kristi looked over to Arianna as she explained her specialization, which was combat, Kristi had to admit that she was a little jealous to be honest. But then she looked over at some boys checking Arianna out, Kristi lifted an eyebrow and sighed before looking back at Arianna. "Boys will be boys I guess." Kristi sighed once more before looking to see Aki introduced her own specialization, which was influence, which she had to admit was pretty cool as well.

"For evil? Of course not, I'm a hero!" Kristi grinned to the both of them before noticing a boy around her age come towards the three of them. But he didn't quite come close even, she kindly smiled to the boy and waved him over. "C'mon! We don't bite!" Kristi grinned happily towards the boy and waved her hand for him to come in, she just wasn't sure what Arianna would say about this though.

[LadyTale]

"Unless you try to flirt with me, in which case I'll do a lot more than bite." Janet grinned, waving at the boy. "Don't worry. As long as you don't try any pick-up lines on me, we're good."

[Urbanliner]

"Thanks for inviting me in! I'm Akira, Akira Aoki! Can I have your names as well, please?" The male newcomer introduced himself, before walking closer to the crowd as he smiled back at them.

Although Akira was nervous if they would accept him or not, he was glad they kindly did so without any hassle, actively taking him in inside. This made so that the male newcomer is surrounded by women probably with various personalities, although he wished they were all kind people, just like the most of the girls he had seen at the junior high school he was in.

Briefly looking at everyone in the crowd, all the women seemed good-looking from his view. His dream about getting in a relationship could come true if he doesn't mess up something important, which he hoped would be east to detect.

[LadyTale]

"I'm Arianna, Arianna Jackson." Janet copied the boy's manner of introduction with a smile. "Nice t'meet you." She usually wasn't the kind of person to say useless pleasantries, but she had promised to be on her best behavior.

Quite a few boys, however, took her including Aoki into the group as an invitation to join them as well. A glare scared off most of them, but one persistent boy remained.

[Teddiplier]

Naito was holding two things as she walked down the school hallway. One thing in each hand. In her left hand, was her brother Hizachi's right hand. In her right hand was a case with her two violins in it.

"Naito-ane, I'm scared...," her brother said silently to her. She gave his hand a squeeze, and he squeezed back. "It'll be alright Hizachi-tan. Here we can relax from our parents," she said, giving him a smile.

She noticed a small group that was gathering, and stood out for her than other groups.
Is it best to stay away from groups, and stay with my brother? she wondered.

[LadyTale]

"Hey, babe." The intruding boy smirked at Janet. "What do you say we skip orientation and get to know each other?"
"I'd rather go one-on-one with the Hulk." Janet said frostily, turning pointedly away from the boy, but he was not deterred.
"C'mon, babe, don't be like that." He grabbed her arm, pulling her around to face him again. "I just wanna have some fun, right? I promise, you'll enjoy it." The boy wore a leering grin, quite obviously checking her out.
"About as much as I'd enjoy getting shot." Janet yanked her arm free, scowling at the boy and turning away again.
"Hey, you." Frowning angrily, the boy got up in her face. "Don't you talk to me that way. I'm offering you a chance to be with me, d'you get it? You should be grateful. Now, come on." Taking a grip on her wrist, he started trying to pull her away.
"STOP!" Janet yelled angrily, once again yanking herself away from him. Oh, great. Now everyone's looking at me. Might as well make the best of it. Walking to an open area, she prepared to follow her namesake's example. "Gimme a beat!" Thankfully, she was able to start the music without the aid of a sound system. The opening music of Nasty by Janet Jackson began to play, and Janet herself began to dance.

(Basically, this is what happens: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6GyV_rcLV8 )

[Natsu]

Akira glared at the creep who started to try to come onto Janet, and looked on in disbelief as she began to dance, and... gross 80's pop began to play. Still, Aki felt a bit of a anger swell in her, which was only supplemented by her disgust with the boy already. Pissed off, and ready to fight, she called out, "Oi asshat" and delivered a punch to the boys back, hoping to disable him, or scare him off.

[WaddleDaisy]

@LadyTale@Natsu@Urbanliner@Teddiplier

Kristi looked over to the boy that she had invited into her group, but when the boy introduced his name, there were two Akira's! Even though she's going to call the female Akira, Aki she is still surprised by such a rare turn of events. Despite all of this occuring, she had to admit that this boy was really cute, but she didn't want to mess anything up with her new friends already. She then closed her eyes as she concentrated before opening them and looking at Aki, and then Akira.

"Okay so you're Aki." Kristi pointed over to the female trying to get this right.
"And you're Akira." Kristi pointed over to the boy, she eventually got nods as she smiled.

Glad I got that sorted out, didn't want to get into a massive mess.

Kristi then saw another girl who was holding a boys hand, they looked around the same age and slightly looked the same so Kristi predicted that they were brother and sister. And kind of due to her being attracted to both boys and girls, she looked kind of cute.

Kristi then noticed that her friend Arianna was being hit on by a guy, she looked at him in annoyance and noticed the physical contact that was occurring between the two. She was tempted to step in, but for a senior like Arianna with her specialization as combat, this could most likely be easy for her.

"You're not going to be like him right?" Kristi asked Akira.

[Urbanliner]

"Nice to meet you too, Arianna!" The male Akira smiled at the oldest woman in the group which introduced herself as Arianna, resisting the temptation to give her a wink as since he have heard the woman doesn't like anyone hitting her; which meant the boy must wait for her to be attracted to him if he wanted to romance her.

After smiling at Arianna, which seemed to be in her early 20's or so, the male Akira smiled at the others in the group as the smaller girl explained to herself about two people named Akira being in the group, calling the girl as "Aki" and calling the boy as "Akira". The boy smiled at the younger-looking girl as she smiled at him, which caused the boy to briefly blush and look away.

Looking back at the girls, the male Akira noticed Arianna was being hit on by a boy which she probably wouldn't like, which quickly escalated to the woman dancing to 80's pop, while the woman whom he recognized as "Aki" went to punch the boy in back. He looked at the two in a confused manner, before noticing the younger-looking girl asked him a question.

"Of course. I'm not good at flirting, and it isn't a good way to get someone to love you for a long time. By the way, can I have your name, please?" The male Akira smiled at the young-looking girl.
