I just figured everyone wanted to roleplay really smart characters
Is metal open, since it doesn't seem Wizard Lizard is around?
Interested, is there still a spot I can reserve?

Gideon allowed Emilia to drag him along, his large frame stumbling along as he tries to match her pace. He contentedly ran along as if it was the ultimate relaxation. Once Emilia stopped running Gideon smiled politely, leaning forward slightly as if notifying her quietly.

"So, I intended to tell you earlier, but I'm not very easy to lose track of, even if we're not holding hands."
@ViolentViolet

Gideon chose to ignore the questioning glance, pretending not to notice. Looking around with a soft cough, his sharp features returned to their commonplace as his face turned slightly more stern. Self consciously gripping his hands into fists and releasing as if it was some nervous tick.

"Would it be easier for you if I spoke in English?"

"Many of the students here wouldn't understand most of it, since they don't pay much attention to such a commonplace language."

With a soft chuckle, Gideon finally returned eye contact with Emilia.

"I believe speaking in Japanese would be beneficial for me, so please allow us to keep it this way." He answers in Japanese. His mannerism of speech is stiff, almost constricting. It's likely that he took some crash course on short notice so that he would not be helpless. In fact, if someone watched him closely, it would soon become apparent that he was avoiding interaction as to not embarrass himself or needlessly offend others. Obviously his understanding of Japan's culture was even more rudimentary than his speech.

Observing the increasing influx of students, Gideon became slightly more anxious to get moving with the crowd to the opening ceremony, but he did not say anything simply allowing the interaction between him and Emilia to continue. As a matter of fact, if Emilia had not initiated a conversation, Gideon would've likely withdrawn into himself with half-lidded eyes and a counterproductive attitude.
Holy shit, gone to the beach, come back and posts have doubled.
@ViolentViolet It might be a while before I can get back in the IC. Some friends invited me to go to the beach with them and I'm a bit late already. Sorry.
"I'm Emilia Pond; I'm here to help you around."

Gideon's eyebrows rose slightly with Emilia's cheerful attitude, his taught features relaxing slightly. With a slight shake of his head, he reached out to shake her hand. His hands were roughly callused along the fingers and his palms were wrapped, the fresh linen peaked from the sleeve of his shirt all the way to his knuckles, wrapped around his thumb. Gripping her hand with methodical caution, he bowed his head slightly before looking back to Emilia with mirth mingling in his features.

"Then- how do I put it... I'll be in your care." He says with a neutral smile. His overall demeanor seems to be fairly reserved, but he allows Emilia to take charge, resigning himself to following her.

@ViolentViolet
Okay, thanks for clarifying, otherwise Gideon would've greeted his imaginary friend with an air of stoicism and neutrality
Aline, what group of students were you referring to, just want to make sure I'm not leaving something out.
