I'm thinking a sort of dark purple-ish text in swirling letters (or kind of creep-ish lettering if you want))

I can also add "School of the Gifted" in there if you want I tried something else with it but it didn't look right and then I tried black and white but it still didn't look right so it sort of looks like the one you made but with a slightly different color and different font. I liked how the border looked sort of like waves but also sort of like spikes)

Xhai let out a dry chuckle and said,"You start needing to 'be prepared' when you get up near my age." He let out a grunt as the staff stuck the side of his leg, but he spun around on his down knee with his staff extended to knock the younger female off her feet hopefully. After his spin, he quickly got up with his staff ready in case Maze hadn't fallen down and was on the attack again. Just as Xhai had anticipated, Maze was attacking once more; the darkness was growing around them as they went on like this, back and forth. They were very equal matches for one another. However there was one difference; Maze wasn't unwilling to use darker, more...masterful tactics. "It's a shame that you won't let that daughter of yours get deeper into the tough love training," she remarked with a smirk, intention clearly to distract and hurt him so he would be vulnerable. "Perhaps I should see to that matter myself," she offered, in a threatening tone. Rowan held the phone away from Akio's immediate reach, and not in the same way as a taller person held something away form someone short, but instead dodging Akio's attacks for the item, moving it around constantly as he looked at it intently. "Explain it to me," he demanded of the Zeus'er, clearly having no information on the item.
---
Bray smiled at Zo again. "Don't worry. That will change soon enough. I think we'll start some practices tomorrow, I mean I know classes haven't started yet, but Keepers are designed to do more than the others, and do it better. So might as well keep to that mantra." He leaned a bit closer so things felt more personal as they talked, less of a gap. "A couple of the Keepers you'll really need to be focusing on are Avyn and Aris. Both in your age group-" he began, referring to the Grade I students- "and both are first year Keepers. I won't tell you much more, it's part of your job to get to know all your students, but for now you'll be really focusing on them. First Year Keepers, as you know, are hardest to handle, console, train and teach in their entirety. Particularly these two. Neither had guardians, so they've been moving safehouses regularly, Avyn at a much more regular rate, and for an extended period of time. Long before the summer began. Had a bit of training, actually, due to necessity. Aris has had some basic information handed to her, but only training before her trial, and once or twice after."

(Oh looks good! Yeah I don't mind that, still seems creepy!
And we can put Lost's banner in Fan Art so everyone can see what an amazing and beautiful job she did!)

"I'll certainly keep an eye on them," Zo said with a nod and a light smile up at Bray. "I can relate to their situations quite well actually.." she added as an after thought, "so it shouldn't be too hard to help them. I'm looking forward to classes and training but.. I'm afraid I'm not much of a teacher. I don't know a lot." As she spoke, her eyes grew wide and fretful.

(Okie dokie Danke Schön ) Akio huffed and stepped back into his normal posture. "It's a mobile phone. You use it to text people, listen to music, yada yada." He held his hand out, "Can I have my Phone back now you know what it is? Nothing to help you anyway." He pulled off a devilish smirk and waited for Rowan to give him back the device.

Bray nodded. "You don't need to be a teacher," he told her gently, reaching out to touch her shoulder gently, reassuringly. "That's the difference between us and the rest. Keepers only need to be shown how to be a Keeper, not taught. That's what you're here for- to show them what you can do. They'll pick it up, or they won't. I know many look at the...approval process," he started with a gulp, referring to the killing of those the Gifter did not approve to live as a Keeper when a human learned of the Gifted world- "as cruel, and I do agree, but...it's necessary. It is efficient. It is rare that we don't get the right person for the job. It is specifically designed so only those that are meant to be Keepers, are meant to just know what it takes- only they will be spared. So, trust me. They'll all pick it up. It may just take a bit of a push on our part," he smiled at her kindly, both hands holding her shoulders gently as he made direct eye contact with her.

After Rowan tapped and handled it a few moments more, he passed the instrument off to the Godsend. "Hmm. Let me guess, human-" he paused for just a brief, short second before interrupting his conversation, "Nevermind. I've heard of them before. Just haven't had one. Didn't get around others too much," he lied. His social, outgoing, and manipulative nature suggested otherwise.

Zo met Bray's eyes and smiled shyly. "I.. I hope you're right," she whispered. It didn't seem necessary to speak at a louder tone when he was so close. "I don't know how I passed the approval process.. It was scary." she whispered.

Akio lifted a brow, wondering why Rowan stopped half way through a sentence. When the Keeper finished speaking, the Zeus'er snorted. "Would make sense too, if you basically start fights with people you just meet." He referred to when Rowan had attacked him earlier. Akio wasn't asking for a fight or argument, just stating a point. He took the Phone back and placed it on his desk.

(No worries, Sum! Just wasn't sure since I had done it on my phone and it wasn't in black font and bolded name)
Bray answered, "Scary is good. It makes it more real," not sure what else to say, and just stood there looking into her eyes for a little bit. It was true, what he said, but..."You're certainly the best kind of Keeper. Just...don't forget that," the man added.
---
Rowan shrugged. "Had to make sure you were worthy of my tolerance," he answered with his typical smirk as he laid back on his bed, yawning. He was used to a crazy, unpredictable and highly stressful schedule. But after everything he had been through over the last few days- and more than a month too, at that- he felt exhausted, and closed his eyes to finally sleep.

"I am?" Zo asked in surprise, blinking up at Bray, "How so? Why?" She seemed unsure in the moment but there was also a touch of something deeper, something hard to read.

(No worries!)
Bray shrugged. "Ah, just trust me. I've seen a lot of people," he told her with a friendly wink as he pulled away from her, letting her go. "I'd like to start gathering the Keepers tomorrow morning just after breakfast. Do a group practice. I've been told most have arrived thus far." He turned to sit back at his desk, this time in a chair rather than on top. "I'll catch you then, okay?" he prompted, knowing it was time to let her go, they had discussed more than what they needed to...

"Alright, I'll be there. Where are we meeting?" Zo asked as she stood up, smoothing the paint splattered shirt she wore.

Bray was already looking down at paperwork on his desk. "I'll just start gathering you during breakfast. Don't worry. I've done this before," he mumbled with a humorous tone, a rumble of a small laugh.
(If not everyone is ready to jump to the next day, start wrapping up)

(OK I'm switching to my phone, going walking now. Wanna go ahead and jump to morning? We can get the group Keeper rp going, and start a bunch of other rps as well ^.^ )
Bray was one of the first in the cafeteria in the morning, always up early and first to get there, so he could carefully watch and consider his students. He grabbed his hot mug of coffee at the start of the lunch line, rather than milk or orange juice, then proceeded to continued. He piled two Belgian Waffles onto his plate, pouring a generous serving of maple syrup over the top, and a couple of spoonfuls of chopped bananas. Finally, he wakled away with a side of three slices of bacon, taking a quiet seat as the cafeteria was peaceful, until the crowds began showing, it getting more crowded the later into the dining period it got. Which, today, because classes had yet to begin, was lasting a bit longer.

Zo walked into the cafeteria early, hoping to beat the crowd. There were a few tables occupied but not a lot of people here yet, thankfully. She put a waffle on her plate as well as a few pieces of fruit, and grabbed a water from the bin before looking around for a place to sit. She finally found one near a window and sat down, beginning to eat.

(So I know u didn't specify this but I'm going to do this anyway cuz I've had this weird image in my head, imagining it xD)
Bray gave a rare smirk as Zo sat at his table. He admired her hair as she pushed it back, and examined her plate, considering. "You know what they say about a girl who chooses strawberries?" he remarked, leaning forward as he placed an elbow on the table to get closer in.

(Since it is changed to the next day now. Sum, I'm going to send Yuri to the canteen if you want to continue the conversation there. But you don't have to.) (Anyone's free to Rp with my fav Yuri X3) (I'll send Namika as well since shes a keeper if you want to do that training session)
Yuri walked into the cafeteria, feeling refreshed and ready for the day. She scanned the cafeteria, not everyone was out but a few were. The Photon had dot out of bed, neatly made her bed and the desk and walked out of the room. She glanced around before wandering towards the breakfast line.
--
Namika had already settled down at a table with Ayla as the two ate together. The Keeper glanced around as she quickly gobbled down her breakfast hungrily. She wanted to make sure Kylie and Ava have gotton on well with their roomates and are slightly starting to settle in.

Thanks) and alright lol. This should be interesting)
Zo looked over at Bray and blushed as he spoke. Something about his smirk lit fire under her skin. "W-what do they say?" she asked quietly as he leaned closer to her and found herself leaning in as well.

(Omg yes I have so much I want to do with your characters Lost!!)
Rowan growled as he listened to the water run forever in the bathroom of the dorm he shared with Akio. Five minutes went by- already two minutes over how long a shower should be, in his mind.Then five more. Finally after twelve minutes, he lost his cool. But instead of politely knocking like any normal person would, he slipped his dagger out from under his mattress, and started jiming the lock until he was able to open the door. Then, he threw the shower door open. "Your bathing time is over, Princess," he said to the Godsend standing inside.
---
Sin sighed with relief at the sight of Yuri- who he considered to be his friend, and now, a romantic interest- entering the cafeteria. He hadn't even bothered to grab his food yet, having specifically been waiting for her as he rushed up out of his seat, and over to join her in line- a fairly short wait due to the bear emptiness of the place thus far. "Oh thank god. I thought for sure you would be burnt to a crisp right now," he let out, half serious, half humorously.
---
Bray wanted to make a point...even if he wasn't exactly sure what that point actually was. He reached towards her plate to pick up one of the pieces of strawberry with his fork, and then motioned it towards her. He gently pressed the fruit to her lips, muttering the words, "The kindest of hearts and the most fiery of passions."

Zo blushed and hesitated a moment. She bit into the strawberry, meeting Bray's eyes as she did so. She chewed and swallowed before saying, "I've never heard that before." The juice from the strawberry stained her lips like a natural lipstick and tasted sweet as she spoke.

Bray shrugged, pulling back to sit upright in his seat, taking his now empty fork with him. "A woman told it to me. A long time ago. Shortly after I became a Keeper, I think. I must have been..." he trailed off, gazing away as he thought. "Twelve? Maybe eleven. At one of the safe houses I was in. Just a couple of days before Hunters came and destroyed it, killed everyone but myself and another young boy. We escaped while everyone else died. The woman, too." He sighed, gazing down at his plate with an expressionless face.

Zo reached over and touched his elbow comfortingly. "I um.. I was the only survivor when my family was attacked," She told him softly, voice almost at a whisper, "If you ever need someone to talk to, I'm always here."
