So apparently, business shorts are a thing that exists. All I can say is... why?

Been busy lately, courtesy of the guy who thought that it was a good idea to have 3 assignments and a test due in the same week.

Anyone remember the period a little after guildfall, when the site didn't have a lot of work put into it, the servers went down pretty often and people were moving out? We waited and waited until boom, Mahz made America the guild great again. That was about where I left off.
My mistake was trying to take on everything at once (and being cringy as hell but I mean come on). Well now I'm back, and better than ever.
And I'll be damned if I let anything get in the way of having a good time.

I want in on this too, might have a cool idea for it.
@Jasper19 I'm probably going to hold off on replying until everyone else can post, is that alright with you?
Oh, right.
"Sure, I don't mind." Tobias said.
He should have asked if Ozzie wanted to come when he'd announced his intent. He was used to going alone, and he preferred it like that in many ways. But he was supposed to be in a team now, so he'd have to be more careful next time.
Tobias watched as Ozzie went out to the hall ahead of him, watched the arcs of lightning flake off the elemental's body. It would probably be a strange partnership, but it would also hopefully be a good learning experience.
"Let's go to the cafeteria first." Tobias said, walking out the dorm.

"Well, I don't really know how long we're supposed to stay here." Tobias replied, moving his bags towards the unoccupied bed.
The sheet didn't said to 'report to the dorms', that didn't mean a whole lot. His read on it was that they were supposed to meet their teammates. After that, they could theoretically go wherever they wanted. But first, he had to secure his base.
Tobias carefully extracted the bow from his bag. Ozzie had mentioned it was of good make, but Tobias didn't really know, even though he had been using it for a long time. It had held up quite well for that time, though, so he supposed it must have been good. Tobias slung it over his back - destringed, since he didn't plan on using it. From the same bag he extracted his hunting knife and fit the leather sheathe onto his belt. He was almost ready.
Tobias rose to his feet as Ozzie asked his next question. He frowned thoughtfully as he considered the notion of rivals. He didn't really know about elementals so he wasn't sure why Ozzie mentioned ice elementals specifically. As for everyone not getting along, that was natural. There were many different kinds of people meshing together, it was inevitable that there would be some discord. As for rivalry, he wasn't sure. He hadn't interacted with other people much so he had no idea how rivalries worked. He supposed that when resources were scarce, animals tended to get more aggressive with each other. Lines were drawn and they'd go at it every so often. He didn't know how this academy would go, so he couldn't say it was out of the question. If that was the case...
"Rivalries, hm? I suppose we'll have to wait and see." Tobias said.
He pushed his bags under the bed with his foot. He could sort out his luggage later, right now he wanted to explore the grounds.
"I'll be going out." The boy said curtly, walking towards the door.

@chocomog333 What kind of furniture do we have in the dorms?
Tobias nodded.
"I see." He said aloud.
He had no idea what Ozzie was talking about, but it was nonetheless quite impressive. The elemental's sword was significantly longer than any he'd seen, probably significantly heavier too. That Ozzie could wield it was quite interesting, considering that, based on what Tobias knew, he should be made entirely of lightning. Although, he didn't look like he was lightning at the moment...
Tobias coughed to clear his head. It probably didn't matter too much in the grand scheme of things, it only mattered that he could use it.
"That's a pretty impressive sword." He finally said.
The boy looked around the room once again. He wasn't sure where to take the conversation now. His eyes settled on his belongings. He turned back to Ozzie and began to speak once more.
"Do you mind if I organise my things?"

Tobias had never encountered a lightning elemental. Or any elemental, really. He recalled his master saying a little about them - beings of pure energy that embody the forces of nature. He was familiar with lightning, though. He tried to be careful not to be too hesitant when taking the elemental's hand, and did his best not to flinch when it sparked a little.
"Right. My name is Tobias." The boy said, shaking Ozzie's hand. "As for my specialisation, it was..."
Letting go of Ozzie's hand he fished in his pocket for the sheets of paper he'd been given at the gate. He couldn't quite recall what he'd been assigned to.
"Let's see... light armour. I'm a ranger." Tobias said after a pause.
The ranger part would have been easy enough to extrapolate, based on the bow sticking out of his bags in the middle of the room. It was his father's bow, now it was his. The boy's eyes quickly glanced over it to see if it had been damaged, before turning to Ozzie's luggage. Habit made him undergo a threat assessment of his new roommate, before realising that it would probably be rude to continue. He was sure he could guess his profession from his belongings, but he should probably ask first.
"Well, how about you? What's your specialisation" Tobias asked, in as casual a tone as he could manage.

Timothy wasn't entirely sure what exactly he was doing here. He'd been minding his own business for the most part, doing his duty as a sentinel handler, when he'd gotten called in to be a part of this special team. Of course he'd been fixing to find the blood angel, same as most of the handlers he knew. That was their job, after all. Some handlers didn't think too much of a lone killer running loose, but Timothy thought differently. Volstyggr was large and their forces were small, but they had the Sentinels. A serial killer shouldn't have been let loose for long. As the body count climbed higher and higher, Timothy felt that the angel would inevitably take someone important. He had been proven right, but in the worst way possible.
Timothy looked around the room. He had been a handler for not that long, but he knew everyone in it, with the exception of Vilkas the dragon man. Timothy himself didn't feel that he was particularly exceptional. Although, he supposed that no one he knew had his particular skillset with his particular set of circumstances. Nevertheless, he felt like there were people who would gladly pay for his position in this team. While Timothy lamented the death of Arthur Gothard, he wasn't particularly keen on avenging it. They had barely been aqcuantances, after all. And while he did want to bring the blood angel in, he wasn't doing it out of a sense of justice. The angel was killing people, and Timothy would rather he didn't.
It wasn't as if he minded the assignment; if the boss said he was on the team, he was on the team. He would give everything he had to bring in the blood angel, and he didn't mind putting his life on the line. So then, there was nothing to do but introduce himself.
"Right, hello Vilkas." Timothy said, mimicing the dragon man's nod. "I'm Timothy."
With that, the young man waited for the rest of the group to make their greetings.

Tobias stayed in the amphitheater for a time, watching the crowd leave while trying not to stare. There were many different kinds of people here, more so than he could have ever imagined. His father and his master had told him it would be like this, but he'd nonetheless underestimated the variety of living beings there could be in the wider world. He was curious about them in some ways, but he was also wary, as he was in a new environment. Still...
"To someone who doesn't know any better, a small garden is a forest." Tobias muttered himself.
That was what his master had told him when he'd been convinced to go to this academy. There was only so much he could learn at home, and if he stayed his potential would be wasted. Well, that was what his master had said, but Tobias wasn't sure if he believed that yet. Nevertheless he didn't want to waste his family's money, which meant he couldn't just sit around.
The boy rose to his feet and began to walk out of the amphotheater. When in a new situation he quickly turned to old habits - establish a base, secure a method to aqcuire sustenance, and then check the surrounding environment. Step one was heading to the dorms. Tobias quietly followed the crowd, as they were going towards the same place. The group arrived soon enough and split off towards their own rooms. The boy walked with measured steps, following the path indicated by the map in his hand. The things he brought weren't particularly valuable, so he wasn't in any hurry to get to his room.
Tobias arrived soon enough. It seemed plain, not of any particular note compared to the ones next to it. He wondered if his teammate(s?) had arrived already as he opened the door. As he did, he was met by a familiar smell, like the air after a thunderstorm. Surprised, the boy looked at the occupant of the room.
"Hello?" Tobias said warily.
