Whispers in the Dark

Katherine wasn't surprised at all to see Malcolm coming into her office after she beckoned for him to come in. Of course it was him. The nurses didn't really deal with her unless it was one of her assigned patients, like Liv and Chris were. She looked up from the file and gently closed it before she tucked it in the pile when he spoke to her. "He's going back to her old medication for the time being. He had changed it recently." Katherine said with a bit of a sigh.

She drummed her fingers against her desk a moment, trying to go back to the first bit of what he asked. That was a little trickier. Chess nor Ryan were patients she saw often outside of group, especially since Ryan was Fenris's patient. "Ryan, honestly, is a bit harder to answer for since it's rare I see him. But just notify anyone if you need help with him, his medication is usually effective. Chess on the other hand, watch carefully. He's capable of more than what people tend to realize, and if you want more answers for him, ask Absolum. Dr. Absolum has seen him more than I have too."

She looked up, "And be sure that if you are carrying a sedative, to keep it in the inner pocket of your jacket around the both of them. Chess wouldn't hesitate to try and use it on you."

When he brought up a special task, she gave a gentle smile. "I actually have a task in mind for you. Not quite the usual that I ask, but it is something I just won't have time to get done today." she said, scribbling something on a piece of paper. "Bring this to the pharmacy in ward three and bring it back to me please. I know we're out of what I need for my stores in this ward."

Katherine took the file back off the pile after a moment, "Oh, and if you happen by Dr. Asher, will you let him know I'll do Liv's evaluation tonight before I leave. Hers will be very simple and quick, all things considered, and I have moved her next one on one session to tomorrow morning."

Alice listened to Spring as she spoke and nodded. "Okay. Thanks." she said when she brought up sneaking around. Alice usually didn't sleep well anyway, so it would be nice to be able to get out and about instead of being confined. When Winter brought up the archives in the basement, she quirked a brow. Alice had been pretty good with locks, especially since she usually forgot her house keys whenever she went to school. "I might go looking at it one day, I've... I've gotten rather good with locks." she said the last part of it a bit more quietly.

As she went on about the patients, she sort of smiled a bit at what she had said about herself. "I can tell that about them for the most part. Has Evan always had it out for Daniel though? I do feel kind of bad for him because he doesn't seem to do anything to egg it on." she asked, and when she got her answer she nodded. "It's good to know that at least there are a few people to talk to." she said, and she saw the orderlies walking around, and she looked up to the clock. They still had some time before dinner was due to start.

"Is there any place we can go walk around? It feels really stuffy in here after everything? And I know that after dinner things will probably calm down, but I just... I don't know. It feels weird in here." she said, looking around the main room. It was really weird to see it this empty too, but she knew everyone else was either in isolation, their room, or the infirmary. Hopefully next group session wouldn't be too bad.

(I'll bring in my others next post since they're mostly interacting with each other or not really doing much at all otherwise. But yay! Post)

Please Stay

Okies babe. :)

Please Stay

I'll be replying soon dear. Been a little chaotic lately.

Please Stay

You're welcome!! I do too, and I love how you can utilize so much with so little really. Such great opportunities for awesome fashion! Dude... I will never understand the ties as belts thing... I was totally guilty of the skirts over jeans thing and I look back now and shudder.

Oh! That sounds tots adorbs! I need to look it up like stat. Ha ha.

Please Stay

Let's do it! Because trust me, I can't handle the fashion for the era either because serious... what the hell were we all thinking. Pretty sure we were all drunk, even if we weren't. ha ha. And the formal kills me because not EVERYTHING requires you to be a fancy schmancy, prim and proper, totally uptight looking git. It is nice, don't get me wrong, but it is too much sometimes. Ha ha.

But let's go with it! Urban Witch sounds awesome though, just saying. Need to look it up. ha ha.

Please Stay

Heya babe!

Oh my!! Sorry your life blew up! :( if you need to talk Im here.

But take your time, lovely. Im patient. :)

Currently craving somethibg Harry Potter. Please PM if interested. I have a few ideas of my own but enjoy collaboration.

Save Me|Save Yourself|Save Us All

Clary gave a smile and a nod. "Def. I totally at least owe you lunch." She said as she took up a nacho, and when Heather asked if the new guy was at least cute she gave a nod. "I mean, for a guy. He was totally cute, plus he seems really nice. But I mean, I did only talk to him for like a minute." she said with a small laugh before listening to Heather. She pulled out the notebook that Heather needed to borrow while she listened. "Oh ouch. Sorry babe."

When she said the name Cain, Clary thought for a moment. She'd heard the name before. That had to be the one that Cole had been talking about last night. "Oh! Cole knows him. He's an ice drake, I think she said. She knows him because of Drake. I could always find out more if you wanted me to." she said with a wink and when Heather brought up making time to hang out this year she smiled widely and nodded very quickly.

"Totally do! We need to have girls' nights with all of us. Those are always fun! Especially when we all get to drinking." she giggled, taking the chip and offering Heather some of her nachos. "Oh! And we could totally invite more girls to join in. Ez is back, and Erin will be back, and when you put them with Maggie they're a total riot. And Randa should be game. It's always fun to have us all together. And plus then, the more girls nights we have, the easier it will be to plan on more hanging out!" she bounced a little in her seat before she phased through the bottom and giggled as she caught herself with the edge of the table.

"Looks like you're not the only one with chair issues today." she laughed.

Alex was grateful for what Jo was trying to do, but there were some things she would just have to learn along the way with him. He gave her a gentle nod as she spoke. And then after she said what Devin had said to her, he could only feel himself get more mad. When she explained what she did, he nodded and smiled. "That really is useful. Thank you." he said to her. He smiled a little more when she told him about the paper and he gave a nod. "That's great! I'm glad that you did." he said.

It had been a while since he had taken the formal class, but the teachers that taught it had been sending students to him for tutoring ever since. He couldn't take all the credit from them though, he had been on earth and in human society for so long that he was forced to learn how to coexist with humans early one. He was one of the better integrated ones. He looked at her work and asked her what she was looking for before chuckling a bit. "Sorry... This just made me think of the first person I tutored for the class. She had issues all around with the class."

He looked at where she was looking after a second and he started reading over it. "It doesn't help that they have all this worded funny. You may need to look on the next page for it."

Miles was very glad to have finally found someone to help him who didn't seem rushed. This place was huge and he hadn't had a lot of time to look over the map he had received. He followed her directions and when he got to the door she was talking about he gave a knock before poking his head in and looking around. His eyes caught a dark haired woman with pretty eyes and he smiled. "Hi, I'm sorry to barge in Professor. The Arch Mage told me I should come and talk to you while you had a free period and..." he trailed off when he finally got a better look at the woman before him. She looked young. Sure, witches were known for appearing much younger than they were, like most, but she just had a young feel to her even.

His eyes wandered around the room for a moment and he was astonished at the amount of books and stuff. He looked through his things that the Arch Mage had given him, looking for the page that he was told to show her when the thought came to him.

Aren sighed a bit as he headed out of his office after the new arrival stopped in and left to put his bags in his dorm. Then after dealing with Alex Sanders, he had Billie start reading through a few things he needed her to know for their lesson today before he went off to find Kane. He was getting tired of all of the new arrivals changing the schedules. At least Harlow had let him know that come the weekend his nephew would be coming, but all he would need was a dorm assignment. And then he had gotten word of another new arrival coming next week too. He was just glad that the angel girl had called last night to let him know she would be here after classes ended for the day. And then the Scottsons were due back today. Today was going to be the end of him.

However, it seemed there was a bit of luck on his side when Samantha stopped him in the hall. She apologized to him and he waved his hand a bit. "No worries, Samantha. I understand, and perhaps I should have told you sooner, but you know how it gets." he said. "Just like today. One of the new arrivals got here a little earlier than expected and I had to send him to your office to meet with you. I was just on my way to let you know because he said he wanted to drop a few things off at his dorm first. So I thought I had a few minutes. Sorry that this keeps stacking up."

He sighed a bit. "The girl will be here this evening, but she said she could always meet with you whenever is best for you. She knows she's coming early and doesn't want to disrupt you if she can avoid it. Then I just got word of another new one coming next week as well. And Julian's nephew will be coming in this weekend, but at least him we won't have to worry too much about." he said, shaking his head and rubbing a hand over his face. "And I am also sorry about all the changes going on, but these tests became necessary far quicker than anticipated."

Aren looked at his watch. "I have to run, I'll try to come by later and talk more." he said, waving her off.

This Fire Burns, Always

James watched a moment as Cassidy and Nichole headed towards the pool table, and he chuckled at his comment. "Nah man... That would be a nice catch though. I can't even look at her like that anymore."

Once Daniel started talking to him about a job, his face became serious. If there was one thing about James, he knew that business needed to be treated seriously always, if he slipped up even once someone would try and take advantage of it. He sighed. "Unfortunately, I haven't. After my first couple rounds in this city, I learned my lesson." His eyes fell to Nichole when he said something about a reference, but before he could say anything he heard her call out to him. Sasha even offered him a small wave when he saw him and he just gave a nod. He looked to Daniel as they walked though.

"However, you might have a bit of luck being here tonight, Dan." he said, nodding towards Nichole. "She'd do it, and you might want to get on it now before she gets snatched up again. She books up quick when she's actually free. If that says anything for her work."

Once they got over to the pool table and they started talking, James couldn't help but chuckle at the term 'shark bait.' "Like from that damn fish movie!" he laughed, and he saw Cassidy laugh a little too. "Shark Bait, oh ah ah!"

Cassidy laughed a little harder and spoke, "Feckin' Findin' Nema! I swear!"

James looked at her and laughed a little more when he saw how red she turned when her accent came out. It wasn't long after that when their game ended and Nichole rejoined them. They somehow got on doubles, and Nichole started setting up the table when Cassidy looked to Dan when he talked to her. "You know, I would, but sorry Dan. Not happening tonight." she laughed a little. Once Dan went, she started her turn, first looking at the table.

Nichole looked over to Dan and shrugged a bit. "You never call a match before it's over." she said, her eyes scanning the table too. "It's mostly geometric, and if you have a good eye, it's easy."

Nichole watched as Cass made her shots, and she saw how good of a run she was on before she missed her last shot, narrowly. She just didn't hit hard enough, and she saw the ball sitting in the pocket, ready to fall in when it was tapped. Nichole took her stick and moved to make her shot, calling her first couple before she purposely missed the last one to block them in and she saw James look at her. "Your turn, Jimmy boy." she said, and he glared at her.

"Thanks for giving me nothing!" he groaned, and Nichole just laughed, but she saw Cass shaking her head.

"It's called defensive playing." Cass said, "It's a good tactic when you know how to use it. Plus, she did leave you quite a few shots."

Nichole gave a slightly impressed nod. "Okay, shark bait, just because it comes to you naturally, doesn't mean it comes to everyone naturally." James said, really studying the table and Cass just sort of chuckled.

"You shouldn't bitch, Jimmy boy. You're still two balls up at the moment." Nichole said.

"Put me at a card table, and I could teach you a few things." James said, and Nichole rolled her eyes. James chuckled at her reaction before he made his shot, actually making a ball in and going again. "I knew you'd agree."

"Shut it, Jimmy." Nichole said, and Cass laughed. However she stopped when Sasha came back over and put a hand on Nichole's shoulder. Her eyes looked over to him and he leaned over.

"Call when ready, da?" he asked, and she gave a nod before saying something to him in Russian. Cass gave them a look and watched as Sasha left and she let out a breath she didn't realize she was holding. Something about him put her on edge, but she wasn't sure exactly what it was. Other than everything she knew about him from her files. She shook her head and looked at them.

"Anyone need a drink?" she asked. Once they answered, she headed to the bar and ordered herself another drink.

Save Me|Save Yourself|Save Us All

Clary was officially in a rush. She bounded back around the corridor after realizing she grabbed the wrong notebook when she was exchanging her things after class. It didn't help that she had stayed behind a minute to ask a couple of questions either, but she was really glad this was her free period. She was also happy that she and Heather were doing an early lunch, but she suddenly felt bad for running so behind. She got to her dorm and phased in, grabbing the correct notebook out of her desk before she began heading towards the cafeteria.

"Excuse me?" A voice came from behind her, and she stopped and turned to see a guy with light brunette hair standing there, and she smiled. "Can you help me? I'm supposed to be meeting with Professor Kane and I can't figure out which way her office is."

"Oh! If you follow this hall," she said, pointing in the direction he just came from. "Take a left and she's at the very end of that hall on the right."

"Hey, thanks. I didn't catch your name." He said.

"I'm Clary. Nice to meet you..." she paused for his name, and he just smiled a little.

"I'm Miles. Thanks again." he said as he headed off, and Clary shook her head as she began heading back towards the cafeteria. When she got there, she spotted Heather and waved before she got over and sat with her.

"Oh! Thanks. How much do I owe you?" she asked, looking at the nachos as she put down her notebook. "Sorry I am so late. I had to ask a couple of questions about my assignment from last period, and then I grabbed the wrong notebook, and then some new guy couldn't find where he was going. So busy!" she laughed a little. She gave a small sigh before taking a chip and putting it in her mouth. "SO how's your day been so far?"

Ez couldn't help but to be slightly annoyed with this class. Half of them weren't even paying attention, and when they finally did it was because she was partial shifting. Very few people in the school could do it, if the ones she knew were still even there. It took a lot of hard work and discipline for her to learn, so it honestly didn't surprise her that others couldn't. And then some races would have had a hard time learning it anyway.

When the person answered the teacher's question, she rolled her eyes before she heard the boy at the back of the class answer it correctly. Even going into detail about the brain. She sort of smiled to herself at that, a lot of people didn't fully realize that. It wasn't like in movies where shifted people could still speak in English or other human languages. No. Dragons could only speak in dragonic, and shifters couldn't really speak at all except for in the ways they communicate in animal form.

She finished up what she had on the board and she looked through the teacher's notes as she began covering the effects of rage shifting and how it affected everything in similar ways as regular shifting, it had other less desirable ones as well. Ez sort of rolled her eyes at the thought. Rage shifting wasn't something she had done in a long time, but she knew that the effects could be bad.

"And what is the longest lasting side effect of rage shifting?" the teacher asked.

Adrian actually answered this time. "It affects psyche. It tends to make the person more temperamental and the possibility of rage shifting again higher. Though, some people can get over it quickly, most don't." he said. Ez sighed a bit and looked at the notes again before she wrote something else on the board that she missed. Sometimes she wished all the teachers were organized like the veteran teachers. This shifting teacher had only started about three years ago, she knew because she came in when she did, but she liked her all the same. Just hated trying to understand her notes.

Randa couldn't help but to fuck with Devin. He was such an easy target, especially with how he looked right now. When he turned around and started flipping the scraps of paper at her, she chuckled a little before Maggie shudder a bit. "Ew... He'd enjoy that if you did, Randa." she whispered, and Randa had to cover her mouth and nudge her.

"Mags, you know he wouldn't get to attend that show even in his dreams." she whispered, and Maggie giggled a little. She nudged Randa when DuPage looked at them again, and they both stopped for a moment. When he turned away again, Maggie wrote another note to Randa before sliding her notebook to her, and Randa looked down at it before she looked to Maggie.

You know Garret and Erin should be back tonight. You going to go see him tonight?

Randa shook her head a bit and wrote something underneath it. Me and B are hanging out tonight. As much as I want to, I kind of need her help with some of my work.

Maggie gave her a look and Randa just shrugged it off. Whatever.

"It's true." Randa mumbled, and Maggie gave her a look. "What are you doing right after classes anyway? I've got to wait on B to get out of detention."

Maggie leaned closer to her. "Joe kind of needs me after classes today. He's still having some issues after he went and saw his mother this break." she whispered lowly to her and Randa nodded.

"Only cause it's Joe, I'm not mad. Just letting you know that." Randa whispered to her, and she started writing down what DuPage had written on the board. "I guess I'm just going to see if I can't find some trouble to get into while I wait for B."

Soon a black cat appeared on their table and Maggie smiled a bit, but she noticed he looked to the board and she sighed a bit. She saw Randa move again and she saw a few little wads of paper hit the back of Devin's head. Apparently she was bored, but she couldn't blame her. This class was going to be boring until they were done with the Angel-Demon wars, so she guessed that it was better Randa was throwing paper wads at him rather than lighting him on fire like she normally would have.

--

When she had asked him why he was sorry, he sighed. "It really shouldn't have taken that long." he said, and when she said, she still wanted to do the work, he nodded a bit. He knew it was probably better to get her mind off of it rather than let her sit there and think about it more. Still, Alex couldn't help it though. Devin was only really doing this because of who Jo was to him now.

However, when she told him exactly what happened, he couldn't help but to feel his blood boiling a little. A small place in his wrist started glowing a bit. Before he could got a word out, he noticed yellow dust going up his arm, and he relaxed a little. He took off his glasses a moment and pinched the bridge of his nose. He took a deep breath before he put them back on and he kissed her temple. "I don't know what you just did really, but thank you. It was very relaxing." he said to her with a small smile, seeing the small glow leave his wrist.

"Alright. So are you ready to work on this?" Alex said, moving her book between them and looking at it. "So, where are you having the most issues now so we can start there?"
