Hey everyone, sorry I haven't been around. Life's gotten pretty busy.

Unfortunately enough so that I can't handle this RP right now (I already have another one going for a while plus life's gotten busier). I do apologize for bowing out right before we could get any traction. Maybe I'll return to this concept some day but for now, thank you for all of your interest thus far.
Sorry everyone for disappearing for a bit. Had a pretty busy few days irl. Small post for now as I'm still a bit occupied but I will advance the plot once I get a response post from @Dead Cruiser. Just continue with character interactions for now. Make some more friends (or enemies) with your classmates.

'A' Train - Fifth Car | Interactions: @Dead Cruiser

Nyx's inquiry as to the whereabouts of Sekhandur, Alberta, and Kress would swiftly be answered by the sudden appearance of the students in question. Before Nyx could get a word in, Mandi began teasing the other tardy mages not named Sekhandur to which Kress corrected the misunderstanding with an excuse. Ty attempts to corroborate the story with an all-too-blatant lie, but, honestly, Nyx didn't care at this point. "Take a seat. All of you." he dismissed. Uh-oh. His tone of voice seems calm enough, but there certainly is a hint of seething wrath behind it. He turns to face Sekhandur who had already taken a seat without Nyx's permission. "Stand up." he tells the wayward prince in a commanding voice.

"You'd think that with the amount of effort you put into your training these past couple of weeks that you'd be more rested." Nyx says, referring to his yawn from earlier and his general apathy for Nyx's instruction.

"Also, 'right on time,' was it? Instead of a watch, perhaps you should invest in a change of attitude. Here's what's going to happen. For the duration of this train ride, you will stand in the back. Don't even think about taking a seat. Don't think about ordering any food either. Failure to do so will result in your immediate expulsion. Understood?" Nyx definitely isn't kidding around. Even before Sekhandur can answer, the train's whistle blew and they begin to depart from the station. Usually, the force of a train taking off could put just about anyone off balance if they were standing, but Nyx stood absolutely still, seeming unaffected by it as he continues to stare down Sekhandur.

Honestly, Alberta and Kress got off easy. Fortunately for them, they were sensible enough not to piss Nyx off even despite their tardiness. It's a three hour ride to their destination. Three long hours if this is any indication.
I would say Eris x Nyx but both could care less for each other.


I would say Eris x Nyx but that would involve significant jail time for the latter.

@Dead Cruiser Sekhandur really hamming up the smugness lol

Genelogia Train Station | Interactions: @KoL @TheWendil @Relin

Eris had arrived at the station a bit earlier and sought out Nyx to ask some questions about the mission. Or, rather, she was questioning the mission itself. She believed it to be an 'unnecessary risk' as she puts it and inquired about the logic of it all. The entire time, Nyx's expression seemed almost apathetic as he listened to the young lady. At the end of it all, she states that she probably hadn't change his mind and begins to walk toward the rest of the class. "You know, some consider it 'rude' to ask a question but not stick around for an answer." Nyx tells her as he expectantly waits for her to stop walking.

"So what is it? Lack of confidence?" he asks rhetorically. "The academy is massive in scope; you've probably seen about five percent of it within these two weeks. Additionally, the security is more focused on the safety of students and faculty than they are on protecting some ancient relics. Any decently competent thief with the right magic can steal something from those archives. The catch is, they won't be leaving Genelogia territory. The school works closely with the City Guard to ensure these types of situations don't leave the confines of the state's borders, hence why the guards were so quick to act. The academy would typically send in the Miracle Seven to handle the rest, but it's overkill. I say this from experience."

Nyx begins to walk toward her. "Complacency is why Class-C has been the laughing stock of the academy for the past decade. Putting in minimal effort will always achieve minimal yield. I'd say taking risks might actually get some desirable results from you lot." He walks past her as he heads in the direction of the rest of the class. "Besides, I'm here, aren't I?" Nyx asks, indicating that if anything were to go awry, he'd step in.

Once he and Eris rejoined the class, Nyx takes his place in front and begins to address them. "Good to see most of you can actually pull off punctuality. It won't take off for another twenty minutes but it's time we board the train. Come along." He motions for his students to follow him and, together, they walk to 'A' train at the left station house. As they arrive, they are greeted by a hulking steel beast of a locomotive expelling a continuous plume of smoke from its front pipe. A marvel of technology in today's age. A steward asks for their tickets which Nyx gave out to the class the previous day.

"Ahh, you must be the Avalice party. You're in car number five, in the back." the steward directs them with his hand. An exclusive car all to their own. Another perk of attending the academy it seems. The interior of the locomotive is certainly high end, adorned with expensive wood and fabrics, and decorated sensibly. There are eight benches in total, each seating three people and are arranged face-to-face with a table in between. So in essence, four seating areas. Nyx puts his bag on one of the top cabins and then looks to the class before taking a seat. "Feel free to order food and drinks once the train gets going. Courtesy of the academy of course. Kiara, Ty, I need to speak to you two."

Nyx pulls them aside. "Any idea why Sekhandur, Alberta, and Kress are so late?"
@Matsuri I plan on the class being on the train by the end of my next post but the train wouldn't have taken off yet, so just go with whatever situation you prefer to insert Alberta in.
@BluPlanning on posting today, yeah. Getting work done first.


Good to know. I'll hold off until then.
@Matsuri Should we assume Alberta is already at the station or will you address that in your next post?

@Dead Cruiser @ERode Are you guys planning to post today or should I go ahead and move us along?
And speaking of the academy… Yvaine brought her pen to the top-right corner of the page and sketched a cutesy doodle of Professor Nyx's head with his face currently blank. It was to be filled at night, after she finished the entry with reflections of the day's events and she had gotten an overall impression of the professor's mood.


well shit, that's kinda really adorable tho 😐

On another note, I'll be posting on Monday~

Black Babel Plaza | Interactions: Everybody

It didn't take long before someone came up to greet Yuta. At the sound of his surname, Yuta turns around and sees a girl with pinkish red hair. She is a good four inches shorter than him, but her aura exudes that of a giant. "H-Hello. Kaguya-san?" he meekly asks. He and his future teammates were given pictures of each other prior to today, but he felt it polite to confirm her identity anyway. Soon, the two are joined by a Witch named Shinkai Mitsumi. She conducts herself with a sort of posh and confident demeanor. She seems like a reliable sort. Then there was Uda Kohei—the only other male member of the squad. He introduces himself as well as his Familiar, Lucifer. He's well-mannered and Yuta hopes they'll get along.

Soaring on in next is a tall, mature-looking Witch with a unique pair of googles on her cap. Not knowing what to make of her initially, Yuta feels a bit intimidated just looking at her. So when she points out that Yuta forgot to shine his shoes, he almost panics as he looks down to check. Obviously, it wouldn't make for a good first impression if he presented as a slob. "Oh I'm sorry, I-" His shoes are practically beaming. As it turns out, Kokoro was merely teasing. Then, she brought the team into a hug which caught Yuta by surprise. He didn't fight it, but he did blush. "She seems nice, if not a bit tough to keep up with." Yuta thinks in regards to her antics.

The final member of their team finally arrives. A young woman by the name of Katsumi Nishimura greets the group with a grin. It's difficult to get a read on her, but that grin seems to hide something about her. There's definitely more to her than she lets on. In any case, with everyone here, Yuta felt it appropriate to introduce himself since he didn't get a chance to before. "And I'm Yuta Tsukiboshi. I hope I'll prove myself dependable." He bows.

"Good, you're all here." A rich, deep voice of a man calls to them from nearby. Looking down, they see a black cat with red eyes that seem to stare right through you. "Witches of the 176th. Please, follow me." it says as it tail flicks back and forth.

"This is my Familiar, Nyx." Yuta clarifies.

"And a long-standing member of the order. I'll be acting as your temporary guide for tonight's mission while your new squad Captain flies in from London." the Daemon elaborates. Nyx is an unusual case for a Familiar, having joined Black Babel prior to his partnership with Yuta. In fact, he was once the Familiar of another Witch, or so he says.

"Where are we going?"

"The Scout assigned to our squad has the dossier for tonight's mission. It's best to plan our approach; learn about our target." Nyx continues to walk without looking back. He's quite the serious and focused type. After some time, the crew arrives at a cafe on site. A nice, little area for working Witches to relax and grab a refreshment or two. Unfortunately, it looks like their Scout is nowhere to be seen. Running late perhaps. Nyx leaps onto a table and looks around, before grooming his right paw.

"Maybe we should grab some coffee while we wait?" Yuta proposes to the group. "Nyx, do you want anything?"

"No." Nyx's ears then perked up a little. "...Perhaps some milk, if they have it."
