_Cleric girl?_ Ryouta looked a bit puzzled when Hayato said that, well, maybe he got healed a second time after the match yesterday? Getting injured again and playing on the compassionate hearts of young women? My my, this one is sly! Then, something came along. Something ominous. Something obnoxious and loud. Like a crow that won't stop sqwaking. _I told you I'd go on a mission with you, so if you want to now is your chance._ He looked up and yep, there she was. Sticking out like a sore thumb. He squeezed Hayato's shoulder, **"この狂気の女性では、キュウリが好きスライスします。真剣に！(This crazy woman will slice you like a cucumber. Seriously!)"** Ryouta interjected In japanese. So that she could not understand what he was saying, not that he was worried she could do anything about it. Maybe somewhere, deep down, he just wanted to annoy her. It was then he heard someone mutter something he might have missed, turning around he saw a girl with blonde hair and the Cleric fRom yesterday. The word 'cockatrice' was brought up and he immediately raised his hand. **"I am."** The crowd started to grow, it was not unusual among the year ones to band with whom they knew, interacting with them made him feel young and nostalgic again. The memories of the year past, the good ones anyway. Then Hayato began speaking again, almost like he was hiding something. Looks like he had more personal reasons foR going on missions. Ryouta could understand, he might ask later but not now. _Well, this was a dilema._ On one hand, he wanted to make sure the boy was not being butchered alive by some ax-crazy girl. On the other hand, he had an objective to complete.

My character is not in any group yet, he's just saying Hi to someone he met. He has more personal agendas when picking which mission to take on other than based on rank, so I won't mind making a reason foR him to join anyone who has not found a group yet. If you don't mind having Ryouta along, that is. :).

### Day 2, First Semester "Mr. Himonaga!" "..yes-" Ryouta stopped playing with his watch, a hologram emitter that served as a personal assistant device amongst other things, such technology could have only been made with the compliments of Magic that manipulated dust in the air. It beeped off and he looked up - only to see his P.E teacher in trekking pants and a windbreaker, staring at him with a displeased look on her face. "-Madame?" "Why aren't you in running attire!?" She asked loudly, a large portion of his class turned to look at them. "Asthma." "Again?" She asked, suspcicious of him. "If you have asthma YOU should be running more!" Ryouta would argue that logic otherwise but he just nodded along, drowning her words out with his own thoughts, she did not seem in the mood foR a biology lesson. "...Go to the nurse's offIce and get me a--!" "Here." Ryouta whipped out a slip of paper quicker than she could finish, he handed it over to her with both hands fRom which she snatched and read. Her irritated expression bore down on him after she read it but as usual, she could not do anything about it and walked away. "Thnk you for you hard work." Ryouta whispered cheekily (as is the custom of Japanese to say after someone provides a service) when she walked out of earshot, he enjoyed these little triumphs every now and then. Excercising at dawn made no sense to him, a cup of strong tea already kept him awake, being all sweaty and exhausted would not make him anymore alert. Like would having hot, spicy food cool you down? No. But there are many others who thinks it would. Sometimes the warped view of things these people had really made no sense to him. Speaking of odd people. In the distance he spied three of his classmates, three girls who were according to their scores, rather skillful adepts. And they were looking straight at him. Curious as to what they wanted, he raised a hand and waved at them. But immediately they turned around and ran as quickly as they could in the other direction, in a series of squeals - leaving him bewildred and frankly, kind of disturbed. It must be the stress around here....... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The noon sessions are over. Ryouta stretched out his hands and bent his fingers outwards, it was an early dismissal from Folk Lore, one of his favourite classes. It was a class particularly popular with Summoners, as they get to learn about exotic and potentially undocumented exbeasts. There was even a catching trend among them to see who could make a contract with one of the rarer creatures, kind of like an old game kids used to play, it promoted a rather friendly yet competitive comraderie among these peculiar Magi. He sometimes envied them. Looking at the timetable, it was time to select a mission. Ryouta grabbed his bag and sauntered down to the area where the available tasks were displayed, the place was bustling with people and already he could tell the cliques that were forming. Everyone wanted a balanced party with all the roles covered, to be with close friends or to simply pair up with the most reknowned students foR fame and whatnot. Most seniors already had groups they were used to too .....except for him. He had different criterias. Tapping his watch again, the screen lit up with a list of somesorts. There were ticks and crosses that marked each sentence. He perused the stands while often referring back to it, as if looking for something specifically. He felt a few pairs of eyes watching him but it was usual, everyone who has not found a group yet were probably considered carefully by those who already have and needed one more. It was still no less awkward though. He hurried ahead to the D-Rank boards after noting down several A/B/C-Rank missions and politely refusing a few offers. **"Ah. There we go."** Ryouta mused to himself when he saw the word 'cockatrice' appear in one of the listings, taking down it's serial number and location quickly. It was then when he saw a farmiliar face. Weaving past a couple, he came up behind his victim. **"Hehey, how's your shoulder doing?"** He slapped a hand on said shoulder of the freshmen he met yesterday.

Time skip is no issue with me! I would not be opposed to forming teams with anyone (they are all really sweeet characters), going with the flow of the roleplay. I'll let the host decide. :)

They are all offensive monsters the way I see it. :P. edIt: See you!

I'm online now but I think I'll wait till they get a mission befoRe I post, despIte me wanting to. Right now, I'll just assume Ryouta is telling a white lie to the offIce to keep the incident minor, like Rian and Hayato asked. Then he's probably off to help the new fReshmen Magi before heading to the MRS labs. Inconsequential stuff that might not need roleplaying. Have fun peeps! :). sidenote: "Cute cleric girl", boy is he in for a big suprise! XD. Pun very intended.

Nothing much has happened, really, it was just tutorial getting to meet each other stuff. Basically there was a duel between hazel and hayato (to show us how combat functions). The rest of us just kind of slightly interacted / spectated it or did our own thing, nothing too major except exchanging names (which I missed too omgwthbbq). But I do agree we might have gone slightly Hazel (new term foR overboard. :P.) with the posting speed. Maybe we should have a posting oRder of sorts or limit so everyone can be up to speed? ::)

Bye water! Your posts too! :). ------------------------------------------- I know, it's my keyboard there's some water stuck in it. I tried retyping the characters but they just keep appearing that way Randomly, it's a minor issue that I'll repaIR once I can - bear with me. ------------------------------------------- The skip sounds good!

_You think you could just drop it? Hayato here's been fixed up and injuries are inevitable when spars happen. I'd rather not get called in for something as small as this._ He looked over his other shoulder and gave a very slight nod, making sure the arrogant girl did not see it. Though there was no reason the Cleric, whose name was unknown to him still, would be called in - If anything, they would simply give credit to him foR quickly responding to a scene! Someone still had to explain the situation if they saw the recording, because fRom where he watched it certainly seemed like an intended lethal attack, Hayato was just fortunate. As a senior, it was his duty to make sure the younger ones were safe. Ryouta reminded himself. But he guessed he could lighten the gravity of things ....this time.

I think that Hazel just gave the wrong impression, my character certainly saw it that way, but she did insinuate that Magi were ignorant and that they needed others protecting ...which they might disagree with. Pride and all. You know. It will take time foR our characters (well, mine anyway) to see Hazel as she really is. That was some nice roleplaying guys. :). I've got to go have some rest foR a few hours, I'll have my character leave the scene meanwhile.
