@HaleyTheRandom I've been summoned by the Keksalot and Alta. Might I inquire if there's other possible "species" of supernaturals that could be played? I myself am interested in playing the history of Golem(I imagined that in the gothic urban fantasy there's other mysteries apart from the vampires and werevolves around) - man of fired clay animated by words, that struggles to form his own personality and become a "real person".

By the way, when are the changes to the school's system will be announced?

— Unless you want to accompany me, I will now be off to collect information about our new leader.
Gloria flashed Takumi another toothy grin:
- Vell, I could try and contact my acquaintances in te PMCs. Vant to grab someting to eat on te vay....vere it is exactly ve're going?
After some thought, Gloria decided that she liked the japanese teen before her. He was polite, efficient, and, more importantly, willing to not haggle over details. Both expected of one of neo-nobility and unusual. Well, Gloria long ago learned that there is always something new in the world.

Do you 'ave any questions about tat part? - she sharply looked in Takumi's eyes.

Gloria just rolled eyes on the little bit of high-school drama unfolding before her.
Perhaps Nishka was somewhat lonely after all, seeing as she tried to provoke others into some sort of reaction and attract attention to herself. Or bored out of her skull. Other girls was doing strange things like that all the time, after all - perhaps that was cultural. Or, perhaps, Gloria mused, she missed some crucial part of developing her social skills. Not that it mattered to her most of the times - she was entirely fine with being an outsider in the game of high-school "politics", most of the times.
Not that she was not interested in boys and their attention to her, mind you. She just preferred more developed men. Someone who could handle her sometimes wild moodswings and keep up with her enthusiasm and stamina. As her acquaintance from one of the more recent work trips eloquently put it, "A man who would not break". So what if it was mostly senior students or grownups who fit the bill so far? Her new teammate was not so bad in that regard either, actually. Maybe not very handsome, but solidly built, and if his Noble Arm was any indication of his character traits, as some researchers out there theorised....
Well, she could see about that particular option in the future. There was rather more pressing matters at hand. Such as a new director that reminded her so of certain people she hoped to not cross her paths with in the near future. She smiled at Takumi, showing some teeth in a feral-ish grin.
- So, not trade, but a gesture of goodvill, hm? Clever of you, I approve. Very vell, since ve do need to vork togeter in tis, I vill tell you about myself. Vhat do you vant to know, tough? 'ow I am came to be? Vat I am capable of? Vy did I choose tis school? Someting else?
- Though if the director is as dangerous as you think shit talking him probably isn't a good idea. Doubt you'll get very fun either way, man like him's got plenty of money and power, and knows how to use it.
— Money and power leave traces. Look at them upstream until you know the measure of the man. And if that man can't take a bit of shit-talking in stride, especially about a speech that I'm nigh positive he'd agree with me was dull, he's not fit to lead two thousand delinquents, rascals, and misfits anywhere, let alone to any sort of excellence or success.
Gloria frowned:
- Exactly. And look, vit some forevarning of 'is past 'abits ve could at least try and dodge the vorst of it.
— Speaking of rascals. What are you going to do about your.. 'teammate'? You aren't likely to progress in any meaningful way after that standoff thing. Are you gonna ask for a switch?
She looked curiously between Takumi, Nishka and Yuri:
- Could you tell me more about tat standoff ting, by te vay? I 'eard tat it vas a ting, but not reasons for such. I 'ope it's not everyday occurence 'ere?

Well, Gloria was friendly with people, and I'm going to assume that "multi-person standoff" is, hopefully, NOT everyday occurence, and as such, is a valid topic for conversation.

@TheHangedMan@Eklispe By the way, did someone tell Gloria about that standoff between Winston and few other people?
@Eklispe
Suddenly ninja'd by Nishka. Oh well.

Gloria looked around, trying and failing to look inconspicious. It would certainly not do to be overheard by a member of faculty or Student Council sympathetic to the new director, as unlikely as such bonds on the first day of his term might be.
— Are you offering yours for practice? - Takumi deadpanned.
— I would have to decline for the time being, Gloria here wanted some of my time for some reason. Remind me later, will you?
— So, what was it? — he asked Gloria again.
Noticing the purple-haired girl who suddenly voiced her opinion on Takumi's words and was quite obviously in the range of hearing, Gloria, after a moment of deliberation, decided that it's unlikely that she would rat her out to the faculty. She had that air about her that those who disliked authority generally had and been rather detached in the break. Also, it was obvious that there was some disagreement with that teacher pet kid, so there was that, too. She slightly lowered her voice and confided to Takumi:
- Yes, tat's exactly vat I vanted to talk about. Not panties, I mean, um. - she frowned - Tat man, 'e cannot be trusted. Seen men like 'im before. 'e's dangerous, and not in a good vay, if you knov vat I mean. Danger to everyone 'ere. Vould not bat an eye if 'e vould need to trov avay everyone for 'is goals or someting. Need your 'elp in getting info on 'im, 'is 'istory and stuff. You're one vit guts for it, by te looks of it. May need to tell oters to watch teir backs, but carefully, and you also look like you knov hov to spin tat, vat vit your poker-face. - Gloria smiled. - So, vat vould you say?
