IC Kai nodded, swerving back to look at the streets. "We should take a [equivalence of a bus, I guess], to get there faster. Usually I'd find a building, jump off, and glide...but, I don't think that's a good idea in this case," he said, giving Bran a sideways smile. "There should be a stop close by, it'll take us close enough to the bookstore," he added, starting to walk off. "You're a Noxian, right? I've spent years memorizing all the different alien species that we know about, your planet is so interesting. I'd love to visit it sometime, if I could. We Storeans love to explore, and one day, once I graduate from the academy, I'd like to explore the galaxy, maybe discover new species and help them adjust to the intergalactic world," he said, rambling on a bit. Kai had a tendency to do that.

Bran felt a tugging at his heart at the mention of his home. The dark planet was where his family was and of course, where he had grown up. He still missed it, but not as bad as a couple of years ago. Back then, Bran would shut down at the name of his planet. He would like to think he was better now. "You wouldn't see much." He said with a small smile, "It's pitch black and there isn't much. I guess we do have a brilliant night sky. It's different from the one here. There were more stars and colors in ours." He stopped for a second, reminiscing about the planet. After realizing his silence, Bran tried to recover. "Besides, there is nothing big to jump off on. You wouldn't be able to glide." He lightly joked. He kept his eyes drifting around the two of them, not liking eye contact or the thought of missing something. "What is your home planet like?"

IC Even so, Kai would have loved to see the sky from Nox, he was sure it would be impressive. At the mention of his home planet, he practically beamed, clapping his hands together. "Stror? It's amazing. We have large cities all over the word, some of them are even in the sky, or underground, or in the water, there's so much culture there and although we all now speak the same language, it took a long time for everyone to come under only a few rulers. We have plenty of high mountains and vast seas, climates so different from one another it's hard to even imagine it's all the same planet. It's far more advanced than this world, or most that I have been too, and we have so many things there, I love it. Of course, while it is home, there's something far more exciting about other planets and their cultures than simply mine," Kai explained, more than happy to go into full detail about his wondrous planet.

Kai's excitement made Bran smile. The description of his planet was nothing to frown about either. It sounded impressive and beautiful, but not really Bran's style. He preferred the tranquility of Nox. Kai made Stror seem busy and big. It wouldn't be too bad to visit. Cities were interesting, if not a bit maze-like. He nodded and looked over at Kai. "Sounds impressive." he said with a small smile. Bran slowed as they approached a large store. "Is this it?" He pointed to the store.
(I thought it would be a good time to bring in the store. )

OOC Yeah.
IC Kai nodded once he spotted the store. "That would be it, what kind of books are you looking for? I could help you find them, and maybe I could pick up some books too," he added, opening the door and holding it open for Bran. Books about the different worlds, books about science, books about anything really. Kairo just liked to read anyways, he would be content with anything, and he wasn't kidding on how large the bookstore was, or how extensive their book collection was. Shelves upon shelves greeted them, a spiral staircase leading upstairs to the next floor, ceilings high and light shining in from all the many windows. It looked nice, if anything else maybe a tad bit more on the fancy side.

Bran grinned as he walked into the store. This place was magnificent. He was almost afraid he would get lost in all the aisles and levels. He would have to keep his sunglasses on. The store was bright, though it paid off because the windows made the store seem open. He turned towards Kai. He almost considered refusing the Storean's help, but he would probably just end up taking up more time if he search himself. "Audiobooks." He said simply.

OOC Sorry for the poof, I had to walk my dog.
IC Kairo had already taken to the nearest shelf, browsing through it quietly when Bran spoke up and he looked over at him. "Autobooks it is, I think those would be on level two, so let's head up the stairs," he suggested, leaving the shelf he was at to walk over to the staircase, running is hand along the handrail, it was smooth, marble like even. "Hmm, I'm assuming you'll want them in Noxian...so those would probably be a little farther back...we'll find them though," he said, grinning over at Bran before starting up the stairs.

It's fine. I disappear more than you. )
Bran followed after Kai happily. He laid his hand on the marble-like handle of the staircase. This was a much more expensive bookstore than he had dared enter for a while. He only did now because he had some extra money and he would be a bit embarrassed if he backed out now. Plus, he needed more select books. He wanted to know more about the world and about the jobs available. He would be lying if he claimed to only be interested in medicine. "I think they can be in any language due to the ear piece they gave everyone. I think." He repeated in case he was wrong. He had never actually tried another language, since he liked his native tongue. However, he could have a lot more material if he went with other languages.

IC Kai paused mid way up the staircase. "Oh, right. I always forget about those," he explained before continuing. "So any autobooks then, well they have a nice collection so you should have plenty to browse through," he said, glancing back over at Bran, a loose long feather hanging in front of his face, which he just blew away annoyed, his feathers had a bad tendency to get in his face. He continued up the stairs and stopped once they got to the next floor, extending his arms out wide. "Tada, here we are, autobooks are to the left, shouldn't be too hard to find now that we're here," he added, starting in the direction of the autobooks. He personally, would likely wander off a bit once he got his new friend to the autobooks so he could get something of his own.

Bran nodded and waited for the other person to wander off. He liked Kai, but wanted to keep his interests in another career private. No offense to the male but he wasn't sure if Kai could be trusted to be quiet. He didn't want to anyone, much less a group of people, to know he might be skipping school or changing to something else. It might not be as big as Bran made it out to be in his head, but he just didn't like people talking about him. "I'll just be over here. You can look around." He said, trying to be polite. He realized it sounded like he was dismissing Kai, but the whole secret thing and Bran's person skills weren't 'A' plus to begin with. "Met up with you in ten minutes or so." He said with a smile before submerging himself in the selection.

Hardly enough time to pick out a good amount of books...I'll manage though," he told himself, heading towards a random shelf to see what it had to offer, picking out a few random books to read. Kairo wasn't picky with what he read, not really. It was plenty easy to find entertainment in any book.

Bran watched him go with a frown. Maybe he shouldn't have pushed Kai away, but he wouldn't let himself get caught up in such things. It was said and done, and he needed to get the books in just ten minutes. He knew he should have given himself and Kai more time as he struggled to read the covers of the audiobooks. He felt a bit stupid for forgetting about those. In the end, he had managed to find two books from a list of recommended books, and one in Noxian about folk stories from different families. He decided to forgo the picking up a book about other careers because his stomach did a little flip when he thought about it. Since he only had to match names from a list, he was fairly quick so he decided to go off in search for Kai. He slowly walked around the store and peered down various aisles looking for the feathered male.

Honestly the amounts of books he found in such a short amount of time...well it was impressive. He had even gone up to the top floor and grabbed some Storean folklore stories from around the world, they were his favorite things anyways. The book was huge though, almost dauntingly so, it was odd to think there even were that many...and this was only volume one.

Bran couldn't help the smile that broke out when he found Kai. He was pretty impressed that he didn't get lost or anything. He walked up ready to say a hello but found himself at the loss of words. "What is that?" He asked interested in the large book. Bran couldn't help his curious nature from making an appearance and he inched closer to the other male. He liked personal space but really wanted to read the book cover. A book that large must be about something grand. He squinted his eyes as he tried to read the cover. Unintentionally, he silently moved his mouth as he tried to sound out the words.

OOC Text ICTy smirked at her. "I'm pretty easy to spot, you can't miss me and my glowing personality, that would be too hard," Ty told her, rather proud of his pun, which was indeed something he did a lot, puns, they were definitely one of his favorite ways to express humor, it could get annoying at times. "You should keep a lookout for me, I'd love to talk to you again, you seem like a lot of fun," he told them with a smile. "Fun and cute, what a perfect combination," he added more flirtatiously that time. They couldn't help but roll their eyes at him when he pulled the stupid pun on them. In some regards, it was a little endearing. It would have been boring if a guy like him didn't have much of a sense of humor to begin with. Then again, their species tended to be literal, so it was pretty good that Rei was able to understand the joke in the first place. "Heh, I think I may as well just ask who can glow, and I'll get my answer." they smirked up to him while they let out a small huff of amusement. "I may be fun, but I'm not cute...I'm a fun mess." they gave him a crooked grin while winking.

"Did you find what you were looking for? I mean we still have time if you still need time to look," he added.

If felt nice to get some attention from him anyway. Their pale eyes gleamed up at him before they laughed. "Shouldn't you be finding your brother? I can leave you to that if you want." they stated simply. Last thing they needed was for him to freak out over that factor. Then again, it was nice to be talking to an attractive creature.

Bran's interest spiked. Folk tales were interesting. He loved to try to guess how they spawned, both logically and mystically. Like how he was pretty sure the one-eyed monster folktale came from a Noxian who saw another tall Noxian with one eye. Of course, he loved the stories too. They always seemed to be unique, even the ones for the children. With the Storean's vast planet full of light and different places, he could only guess how different each one was. It would be nice to read, once he could. He blinked when Kai spoke to him and held up his books slightly. "Yes. Just some books for school and a Noxian folktales book." He smiled when he mentioned his last book. It was amusing, at least to him, that they basically got books telling stories from their home planet. "Are you done?" He asked quickly.

| Lauretta Renisami | Flaurisma Teragamis | Female | 19 | Homosexual | Year 5 | | Lauretta is a tall, and slim female that stands at 6'0" with pale pink skin that is soft like a rose. Her eyes are large and pitch black, and framed by thick lashes. Instead of hair, her skull is constructed to become an elegant rosebud that slowly opens up and produces pollen and nectar the more she matures. Her features are quite hyperfeminine, since she has a soft jawline, defined cheeks, a thin and pointed nose, plus her full lips are a darker pink. Her figure is humanoid, and she is slim and willowy in some ways. She enjoys wearing things that are organically made, which makes her think of home. | Lauretta is a haughty and proud sort of young woman who is not one to take no for an answer. She casually flirts around with species, but is incredibly selective if she actually bothers to consider an actual mate. She is tactful and organized, yet also a little clueless when it comes to getting an education. She lacks confidence in her intelligence, and does her best to avoid conversations that involve education in the first place. She is an easily insulted person, and is really not one to forgive and forget. If anything, she is a literal person who will hold grudges if she finds an opportunity. | The Flaurisma Teragamis from Teragam is the female of the species of Teragamis. The male is known as Incectivis Teragamis. A Fleurisma tends group together with members of the same gender in the first place. They are shaped like various types of flora, and have them at the tops of their heads to substitute for hair. They rely on photosynthesis and water for means of energy and growth. The flowers grown along with the females as they mature, and when they reach their peak, they produce nectar, and are subject to pollination by the Incectivis males. The Incectivis is structured to appear like humanoid insects. The types vary from hardened skin colors, multiple arms, antennae, and even presence or lack of compound eyes, but they are all commonly able to spread pollen from female to female, and feed off the nectar they produce. For reproduction, pollen must be exchanged before a Fleurisma is able to produce a seed from the flower in order to ensure another Fleurisma; a Incectivis can reproduce with means of exchanging pollen from another Incectivus to mature inner eggs before they are able to lay them in a secure area until they hatch. The society of the Teragamis seems to be similar to Amazionian tribes where the males are commonly submissive while the females have more dominant roles. They are a sophisticated race and tend to be sympathetic and charismatic, so they naturally are suited as diplomats. | Lauretta isn't very happy or energetic like her species, so she was sent to the school in the hopes of having her find some kind of purposeful role for the benefit of her community. | | Rivermagic |

"I actually picked his one up as an audiobook. It is suppose to be a recording of each family telling their own tales." He let excitement seep into his voice as he spoke, "It's actually pretty cool because most families have their own stories and legends that are passed down. One family could interpret an event completely different than the other, so each story is different." He smiled as he looked down at the book. He looked up at the Storean. "But, yeah. Of course you can borrow it sometime. It might be a bit confusing once you start." He got a bit nervous at the thought of someone else reading a book that he recommended, especially about Nox. Most species didn't understand how dark it was and how they had to rely on other senses and instincts. He would hate for Kai think he had poor choices or Noxian culture was weird, though Bran somewhat doubted that. "Well, I think I'm done, so ready to go when you are."
