Nora | Black Eagles Classroom
Nora quickly dipped her head in greeting as Orryn entered. She glanced at her classmates, wondering what they were thinking and if she was the only one who had expected someone older.
Vincent | Black Eagles Classroom | Grimm
Vincent followed Grimm's gaze and blinked in surprise. He had heard a thing or two about the one who would be teaching them but he, too, hadn't expected someone that young. It didn't bother him too much, though. Orryn was probably a capable professor, otherwise he wouldn't even have that position. "An interesting year indeed," he said quietly, more to himself than to anyone in particular.
Agnar | Blue Lions Classroom | Luca, Rieka
Agnar gave a small nod to acknowledge Rieka as she approached him and Luca. Now that he actually looked at her he was finally sure that he had seen her a few times. While his village mostly focused on hunting and, to a lesser extend, craftsmanship they also were trading partners with the Holy Kingdom of Faerghus. And the goods they would get from there would be sold or traded in the other villages and towns in Albinea. The home of Rieka's tribe was usually among the first places. "I think I've met you a couple of times," Agnar said. "You're from Alarick Marrok's tribe, right? Maybe even the chieftain's daughter?" He briefly glanced at Luca, hoping the dancer wouldn't try to flirt with the Wolfskin. While he didn't know much about her he was pretty sure that she wouldn't take it well.
Konstantin | Blue Lions Classroom
Konstantin made his way over to the classroom of the Blue Lions. Like the years before he would always wait a while, giving the students a chance to try and get to know each other a little. It was even more important this year as this was the first time not only people from outside of Fódlan but also Kitsune, Wolfskin and Taguel attended the academy. For his class that would be one person from Sreng and two from Albinea, one of them being a Wolfskin. From the looks of it there wasn't much to worry about though. While the three "outsiders" hadn't really mingled with the other students yet there also didn't seem to be any hostility. He would probably have to remind them that any form of discrimination wouldn't be tolerated but it looked like that would only be a formality. After a moment he entered the classroom.

Black EaglesOrryn-Black Eagles Classroom-Grimm Orryn fought off another sigh, why did some of them have to stare at him like that? He was aware how this must look, a young person teaching other young people. It wasn't like he wanted this either, granted he could have rejected the offer to be a professor, but when he didn't really have anything to return to, taking the job felt like the better option. He blinked realizing that Grimm had said something. "Oh...," he started but caught off by a yawn. "Afternoon." He gave a slight bow before Golden DeerNeason-Cathedral->Golden Deer Classroom-Professor Philomel Neason followed after the professor. He tilted his head to the side. "Wouldn't one of the caretakers take care of that," he asked. He took note of the look on the owl's face but otherwise ignored it. "I'm sure they welcome the help though! With how big this place is, it probably takes the whole day to water everything." Though I feel they don't water the stuff outside. Just have their focus on the inside stuff and let the rain take care of the rest? He thought to himself. Sure he could ask the professor but felt like it would not be wise to ask it. He perked when he heard the chatter that was coming from the classrooms. Searc-Golden Deer House-Estelle Searc shook his head at her question. "I have not been to it," he told her. His brother had, on numerous occasions, and told him about it enough times that Searc was able to put together a mental image of what it could look like according to his brother. "Apologies." He gave a small apologetic bow to her. He never liked talking to other nobles when he did, but so far she seemed....bearable.

Things have been busy! Sorry for being slow to reply.)
Silke | with Vincent, Grimm, & Orryn
She'd been slightly distracted, but when Silke focused again she noticed the Orryn had entered the room. She remembered hearing about the professor, and she eagerly walked over to the trio. As someone who judged others based on skill alone, his age didn't bother her. He had become a professor, so he must have some sort of skill "Hello! What are your names? I believe I have seen you two before." she looked to Grimm and Vincent. She swore the two of them looked somewhat familiar. But Silke was bad with names and faces unless you happened to match her in battle.
Luca | with Agnar & Rieka
"Oh! Why hello there! It's not everyday I get to see a wolfskin. It must be my lucky day. I've already met two very interesting people." he blabbered on, many words but honestly not that much substance "My name is Luca. I hope to get along with you!" he was quick to warm up to people, though not exceptionally good at reading who wouldn't appreciate his personality.

Blue Lions | Rieka ❆ Rieka nodded curtly to the two of them, "Yes, I'm Rieka Marrok, his daughter," She confirmed for Agnar and looked between him and Luca. The latter seemed friendly? "I hope we get along as well," She said to Luca, her tail twitching slightly, unsure how to respond to his torrent of words, "You talk fast," Was what ended up coming out of her mouth. It wasn't meant as an insult so much as an observation that amused her.
(Maybe Grimm and Silke could have met somewhere without knowing it? Like at a training ground or a tournament haha)
Black Eagles | Grimm ✧ "Grimm von Hesper," Grimm told her. This time he omitted the bow, feeling that Silke might not care as much for the formalities. I think I would remember if I had met her, he thought, "You might have met my parents or even my brother - I have not been the guest of many formal events until recent," Now that he was closer to her, there was something about her that felt familiar, but he supposed that was par for the course when meeting so many new people, "I enjoy sparring too. Hopefully, I'll get the chance to take you up on your offer."
Golden Deer | Professor Philomel ❀ Philomel nodded sagely, "The caretakers do their job and do it well, but to take care of living beings takes a tender hand," He rumbled as they walked and the classrooms came into view. The professor had already guessed that Neason was the house leader of the Golden Deer; he wore the golden cloak that marked him out as such. With a smile, he pointed towards the Golden Deer classroom, "Well, I am heading this way... I do hope your professor doesn't mind that you are late!"
Golden Deer | Estelle ✯ Estelle smiled and shook her head, "How silly, all these new faces must be confusing me," She laughed gently. In actuality, she was very good at remembering names and faces. She had to be, it came with the territory as far as she was concerned, "I hope we will have many more opportunities to talk," Her tone was friendly though polite. Somehow, now that she was surrounded by nobles she felt even more of a need to act the part unlike when she had been talking to Callan.

Blue Lions | Fion ♔ This was another thing Fion was used to: people tripping over themselves at his mere presence, "Ah, no need," He said hastily as Pierce bowed and avoided eye-contact, "I'm just Fion here. I may be a prince, but I am also your classmate," He offered a bland smile. Einar. I believe I have met his parents before. I wonder why I have not seen him. Inwardly, Fion considering announcing himself... that was probably what was expected, however, drifting among the others and introducing himself one on one seemed a lot more bearable.

Ah thank you!! Sorry for missing it) Blue Lions: Pierce-Blue Lions Classroom-Fion Pierce gave a small nod."Alright...sorry," he said rubbing his neck. He felt awkward about treating Fion like that, but I it was what the prince wanted he would try to do something. He thought for a moment before looking at Fion. "Um..do you know anyone here?" He wanted to get an idea of all who was present, feeling it would be a bit easier to approach the other classmates if he had a small knowledge on who they are. But if the prince didn't, he wouldn't care as he would have the whole year to get to know everyone. Sorry for short response at work and hard to write on phone. I'll get more ereplies up on either my breaks or when I am home from work and have my laptop. I'll also going to try and get this response longer!)

Agnar | Blue Lions Classroom | Rieka, Luca
Agnar nodded at Rieka's introduction. "I'm Agnar Víðir Elvarsson," he replied. "My father and I have visited your tribe a few times." Since she had introduced herself with her full name he felt that he should do the same. He noticed that Luca didn't seem to feel the need to do so though and for a moment he wondered if there was a reason for it or if Luca only did it because it felt less formal. At Rieka's comment to the other boy Agnar shrugged with a slight smile. "You'll get used to it," he said flatly but he also sounded somewhat amused.
Vincent | Black Eagles Classroom | Grimm, Silke
Vincent bowed slightly when Silke approached him and Grimm. "Vincent von Marquardt," he replied to her question. "I believe we've met before, though we haven't talked much." At Grimm's words about sparring he nodded and then turned to Silke again. "I'm hoping to go up against you as well. There is much to be gained from sparring with you so I'm looking forward to that."

(No worries, take your time!)
Blue Lions | Fion ♔ Fion pointed at a small cluster of nobles and listed off their names, then turned to another and did the same. He sounded mildly bored as though he were reading out a recited list, "I have met most of the nobles here... I would not say I know any of them really," He worried at the cuff of his uniform and turned back to Pierce, "There are plenty I do not know," Gesturing towards Rieka, Luca and Agnar, "Them for example."
Blue Lions | Rieka ❆ "Yes, I recognised your face," Rieka replied thoughtfully, "Your goods were much appreciated," Indeed, certain things were harder to procure in the more mountainous terrain that her tribe inhabited. Without merchants and traders, they couldn't live as comfortably as they did.

Ooo them having met at a tournament could be interesting :3 Maybe they didn't fight, but were in the same one? If they had fought, I feel like Silke would have remembered him.)
Silke | with Vincent, Grimm & Orryn
"I see, well, I'll be glad to get to know you two." she grinned when both of them seemed happy to spar "Hah! Wonderful! I'll take you both on! We may be in the same house, but training amongst ourselves is a great way to sharpen our skills. I don't plan on letting any of us lose to students in any other houses." Silke nodded.
Luca | with Agnar & Rieka
"Indeed, I simply have so much to say! All of it is very important may I add." Luca smiled, placing his hands on his hips "People must know what I think of them, and who am I to keep that to myself. Everyone i've met so far is worthy of being spoken to." he blabbered on, finally taking a break in his small monologue.

(I like it!)
Black Eagles | Grimm ✧ Grimm suddenly found himself feeling competitive, "In that case, I hope this year will still include the mock battle," The idea of defeating the other two houses did bring a smirk to his face. Fighting was one thing he felt relatively confident in. It would be fun to test himself against others who also prided themselves in such skills, "That would give us the perfect opportunity to do just that."
Blue Lions | Rieka ❆ "Thank you?" Rieka smiled a little. If Luca had as much to say about places as he did people, perhaps she could learn more about Fódlan by talking to him, "Do you have anymore important things to say?" Her ears pricked. It may be tiring to spend time with someone like this, but for now she was sufficiently amused. The wolfskin tended not to use so many words at once.

Vincent | Black Eagles Classroom | Grimm, Silke
"As do I," Vincent said with a nod. "Then we could show them right from the start just what they are up against." He couldn't help but smirking a little too. "And after some more training we would beat them again. The Black Eagles will win the mock battle and the Battle of the Eagle and Lion." As he was saying that he glanced at Silke. "So make sure you'll lead us well."
Agnar | Blue Lions Classroom | Luca, Rieka
"That's good to hear," Agnar said to Rieka, then he turned his attention to the blabbering dancer and snorted. "Yeah. Tell us more of those 'important things'" he chuckled. While he was simply humouring Luca, or meant to come across that way, he actually was a bit curious about what he had to say.

Silke | with Vincent & Grimm
Even the thought of a class mock battle made Silke nearly vibrate with excitement "You can count on me. I have yet to lose a battle!" well, when she was alone that is. Silke wasn't exactly good at group work. But that wasn't important right now. No no, it was way more important to hype up her fellow Eagles.
Luca | with Agnar & Reika
"I always have something to say! It's in a dancers nature to keep those who watch and listen entertained." he leaned forwards "Now, you'd best not repeat what I have to say. I heard it whilst at a party with some other nobles." how he'd gotten in wasn't important "But I heard that the Black Eagles house lead, Silke I believe, I heard she is afraid of eels. How unusual is that! It's fine though, her amazing build more than makes up for her flaws." how someone who could enjoy swimming fear a long fish was beyond him. She also had a very muscular and attractive build, which obviously was more important to the flirtatious dancer.

(Hb to your dad, Ember! Yess, Yuri. I wish he had more supports.)
Black Eagles | Grimm ✧ Grimm hoped Silke wasn't all talk, "I look foreword to it," His attention flickered back to Orryn and he stifled a yawn. The professor's sleepy aura must be contagious, "So, now that we've spoken to our housemates, is there something else that's supposed to happen?" He had expected a speech from him, going over what not to do, telling everyone to get along. That kind of thing.
Blue Lions | Rieka ❆ Rieka smiled and nodded encouragingly, "In the tribe we eat eels," She said, still visibly amused as well as even a little impressed by Luca's verbosity, "And you dance? I thought this academy was exclusively for training us to fight," She tipped her head to the side. Dancing wasn't a skill she had ever needed nor wanted to learn. It didn't seem particularly useful for the tribe.

Black Eagles: Orryn-Black Eagles Classroom-Grimm Orryn blinded abit, another question. "Well....um...there's going to be a mock battle against the other houses at the end of the month if you aren't already aware," he fought off a yawn as he stretched. "Well we could go over the rules on the first day of class I guess? But some I can think of Right now is that, you aren't allowed to leave Garreg Mach unless its for a mission or if you have received permission, you are allowed to go down to the town though. Um..." He bit at his lip as he thought. "He careful when you are out at night walking the grounds as there have been disappearances." He could recall a classmate disappearing from his class when he was a student so it would be good to inform them of this now. Golden Deer: Neason-Golden Deer Classroom-Professor Philomel "Pfft I'm not late, everyone was just fashionably early," he commented. He headed into the classroom, observing the students that were inside, he could spot his brother talking to someone but felt no desire to walk over. He looks back to the professor. "Thanks for the help." He gave a brief smile with a quick bow. Searc-Golden Deer Classroom-Estelle Searc gave a brief nod. "Could be," he commented. He glanced briefly seeing that his brother had arrived, late, but arrived. Turning his attention back to the female noble. "So do you have any preferences for fighting?" He felt it would be good to know where people's strong suits would be so it would be easier to cover their weaker areas. Maybe it was from his training to serve as his brother's bodyguard that made him this way or some other cause. I'll get a pierce response up when I'm on my next break, sorry for not being able to get any up last night like I wanted to)

(It's all good!
Ooh, what are the disappearances referring to?)
Black Eagles | Grimm ✧ Grimm listened. He was glad to hear that the mock battle would indeed be taking place and he felt a surge of anticipation flow through him. In regards to the rules, they were pretty much what he had expected although the mention of disappearances caught his attention. He said that rather casually. Isn't that something the church should investigate? He waited to see if the professor would say any more on the subject.
Golden Deer | Professor Philomel ❀ Philomel acknowledged the boy's thanks with a smile and a nod before following him in, a flourish of green against the drab wood browns, "Good afternoon, everyone," He called out, "I am Professor Philomel and I will be teaching you over the course of the year. If I could have everyone's attention, I would like to go over a few guidelines with you after which this meeting will be over," He made his way over to the front of the class. Mal flew off his shoulder and onto one of the desks to scrutinise a sleepy-looking student.
Golden Deer | Estelle ✯ "Magic," Estelle answered, "Black magic, that is. What about you?" Just as she returned the question, an older man entered the room along with a boy who must have been their house leader. Did he get lost? And that man is Professor Philomel, right? She turned her attention to the front, glancing at Searc.

Vincent | Black Eagles Classroom | Grimm, Silke, Orryn
Vincent nodded when the professor confirmed that there would be a mock battle. "We'd better train until then," he said quietly to Grimm and Silke. "I have no doubt the other houses will prepare as well." Then he turned to Orryn again to not miss anything important.
Nora | Black Eagles Classroom
Nora stepped a bit closer to the small group as Orryn began to talk. At the mention of a mock battle she grinned. She would show the students from the other houses a thing or two. There was no way the Black Eagles would lose! At the casual mention of disappearances she frowned a bit. Wouldn't that be something they should be more worried about?
Callan | Golden Deer Classroom
Callan kept glancing at the others as some more people entered. For a moment his gaze lingered on the Kitsune, then he looked away again, not wanting to stare. He briefly glanced at the house leader and acknowledged him with a quick nod. To his relief he didn't have to talk to any of the others. He looked up and turned his attention to Professor Philomel.
Agnar | Blue Lions Classroom | Luca, Rieka
Agnar grinned at that bit of information. It was a bit of a weird thing to be afraid of. "Didn't expect that," he said. At Rieka's question he glanced at Luca but said nothing. He could just repeat what the dancer had told him earlier but it wasn't his place to explain Luca's reasons for coming here, even though they seemed pretty simple.
Konstantin | Blue Lions Classroom
Having waited a bit longer to let his students get a first impression of each other Konstantin walked over to the front desk. "Good afternoon," he called out and gave a curt nod. He waited for the students to quiet down before he continued. "Today marks the beginning of your year at this academy and I hope you are all willing to work hard towards your goals. I am Professor Konstantin Lukyan Fedorov and I will be teaching this class." He paused for a moment. "Since this is your first day I won't be keeping you for too long. For now I will go over our guidelines and the mock battle that will be held at the end of the month."

Blue Lions: Pierce-Blue Liond Classroom-Fion Pierce listened and looked where Fion pointed to. "Thank you," he said with a small nod of his head. He felt a little more comfortable now that he has an idea of most of the people in the house. Golden Deer: Searc-Golden Deer Classroom-Estelle Search glance briefly to the professor before back to the noble he was talking to. "I specialize in sword and lance work, mainly the sword though," he answered her. Magic was a good thing, it could be used in range and close combat, should be an easy thing to be able to help defend a magic user. Black Eagles Orryn-Black Eagles Classroom-Students "We can start preparing for it whenever you guys want," he said. He didn't know how far in detail he should go about the disappearances, as they were still being looked into as far as he knew. "Um...what else is there." He closed his eyes as he thought for a few moments. "Try and get along with the other houses, its okay to be competitive with them, but try and be civil." I want a thinking since it is mentioned in the game quite a bit up until the reveal of the cause of them that maybe we could have something similar but have a different reason as to why they are happening)

Silke | with Vincent & Grimm
"Disappearances?! How intriguing." her attention was on that topic for a split second before she was instantly drawn back to the mock battle "Ha ha, the other houses can certainly try. But I don't intend to lose. My no loss streak is my pride and joy, and I refuse to lose to others who I have not even met." she'd bet money that most of them weren't even as strong as her. It didn't occur to her though that anyone with a good strategy could take her down.
Luca | with Agnar & Reika
"Fighting with a weapon isn't the only way you can contribute in a fight. Dance can inspire and invigorate your teammates! The best dancers can even inspire faster and more abundant attacks." Luca replied, grinned and placing his hands on his hips in a proud manner "Though, get me in a one on one and I'm afraid I'd likely lose." he added with a laugh.
Rekka | open
When their professor entered the room Rekka perked up. His ears swiveled in his direction, and the kitsune moved to sit down at a desk. He glanced over at Callan who sat nearby, but returned his full attention to the professor. Rekka tilted his head slightly, curious about how the classes would be held. He'd never attended a class such as this, it was interesting!

(Sounds good! We could fill a blank space with that.)
Golden Deer | Professor Philomel ❀ Philomel stretched out his arm and the small owl returned to his perch, "This here is Mal," He smiled at the angry-looking albeit cute creature, "Owls know a great many things, more than we do, so you could call him an assistant," The bird made an appreciative noise as he scanned the faces of the class, "Now then. At the end of month we shall we participating in a mock battle along with the other two houses. Though nothing to be concerned about, this battle will allow me and my colleagues to assess you and your peers so that we know how to best help you over the coming year. I'm sure I don't need to mention this, but please be kind to people outside your house! There is nothing wrong with healthy competition so long as it all stays in good fun," He paused, his face growing slightly more serious, "I ought to mention that walking around at night is prohibited if you are alone. Go in pairs or take a knight if you have an errand to run," His face relaxed again as he changed the subject, "In any case, for the rules please use your common sense. No burning down the classrooms for example," The older man laughed and conjured up a small flame from the palm of his hand to illustrate then closed his fist, extinguishing it. He listed off a few more rules and continued on, "Lastly, if anyone has any concerns at all, I am happy to help. Other than being your professor, I am also your physician so do not hesitate to call on me should anything arise to concern you." He waved a robed arm toward the entry-way, "Everyone, thank you for your attention and do enjoy your dinner - I endeavour to make this year a valuable one for all of us and am very much looking foreword to working with you."
Golden Deer | Estelle ✯ Estelle murmured in affirmation to Searc before shifting her full attention onto Professor Philomel. At the news of the mock battle, she felt a thrill of excitement. It sounds fun! What a good way for us show off what we already know to the professors and our classmates. She absorbed the rules quietly, feeling a small amount of bemused concern at the mention of not walking around alone at night. Hopefully, this would not prohibit her from watching the stars.
Black Eagles | Grimm ✧ Grimm was a bit disgruntled that the 'disappearances' were just left at that. The rest of what Orryn said about getting along and preparing for the mock battle were fairly standard according to Halvor so he didn't dwell on those though the mock battle was still an exciting notion. He nodded in response to Vincent's words. They would need to train hard in order to have a shot at winning at the end of the month.
Blue Lions | Rieka ❆ Rieka looked skeptical, but she nodded anyway, "Interesting," Was all she said before focusing on Professor Konstantin. She had met him on a preliminary visit to the monastery a couple of months back. At the time, she had been asked which house she wanted to join and had chosen the Blue Lions to accommodate her interest in hand-to-hand combat. She wondered if he would find it strange to teach such things to a wolfskin who had no real need for the skill.

Vincent | Black Eagles Classroom | Grimm, Silke
"I certainly hope so," Vincent said, amused but also impressed by Silke's confidence. At Orryn's words about getting along with the other houses he nodded. It didn't sound like it would be too hard, though he would probably stick to his own house for the most part. Still, that Orryn didn't mention anything else about the disappearances bothered him. It seemed too important to just ignore. No use in worrying about it for now, he thought to himself. So he just turned to Silke and Grimm with a confident smirk. "Oh well, let us focus on the mock battle first. Everything else can come later."
Nora | Black Eagles Classroom
Nora nodded and smiled at the mention of the other houses. She wouldn't mind getting to know them. So far she had only met Neason and Searc and now she was wondering what the other students would be like. But for now she was mostly looking forward to the mock battle. She glanced at her classmates and tried to guess what part they would play in it and what their fighting styles were like.
Callan | Golden Deer Classroom
Callan gave a small nod and a smile when he noticed Rekka glancing over at him, then he turned his attention to Philomel again. He gave a quiet chuckle when he watched the little owl but grew serious again at the mention of a mock battle. Part of him felt excited, getting to fight alongside his classmates against the other houses. But he also couldn't help feeling slightly nervous. He just hoped he would be good enough to keep up with the others and not stand in their way. As for the rules, they were about what he had expected. He did feel a little disappointed about not being allowed to walk around at night. While he didn't really need to wander around he still enjoyed sitting alone outside.
Konstantin | Blue Lions Classroom
Konstantin began to list some of the rules, mainly about not walking around alone at night, the appropriate use of magic and weapons. "Try to get along with students from the other houses as well," he went on. "you can view them as your rivals if you are looking for some competition but don't take it too far." He paused and glanced at the gathered students. "As some of you might have noticed already not all of your classmates are from Fódlan. I don't think this will be an issue here but let it be known anyway that we won't tolerate any kind of discrimination." After listing of some more rules he went on to the next topic he had announced. "Now, I have mentioned the mock battle before. It's a battle between all three houses that will be held at the end of the month. This will mainly serve to give us a better idea of your skills and abilities." He allowed himself a slight smile. "I still expect you to give it your all in that battle. Unless there are any questions that will be all for today so feel free to make your way to the dining hall."
Agnar | Blue Lions Classroom | Luca, Rieka
Agnar thought about what Luca had said for a moment and then nodded. There weren't any people like that in his village so he didn't really know that about dancers. "Never heard of that but the way you describe it it kinda makes sense," he said. He then listened as Konstantin told them about the rules and the mock battle. At the mention of the latter he grinned a little. "Looks like we'll get to see you in action soon enough," he told Luca.

in the month with battle of the eagle and the lion, as i did new game plus on my file i just finished, and i have all the recruitable students in my house, so im kinda curious to see how this will go) Black Eagles: Orryn-Black Eagles Classroom-Students Orryn thought over a few other things that would be needed to know right away. "If you have any injuries or get sick you can go see Professor Philomel, he is the professor for the Golden Deer, but he is also the one running the infirmary," he said. He gave off a few rules he remembered at the moment. "Um...i guess that will be all for today," he said cutting off with a yawn. "There is going to be a meal held in the dining hall, you don't have to go if you don't desire to but it is encouraged."

Silke | with Vincent & Grimm
"I agree. If don't focus on the mock battle we could potentially win by a lesser margin! That would truly be a disappointment." with the class apparently done, Silke was eager to get out and start moving again. She didn't do well having to sit or stand for long periods of time when they were talking about something as fun as battle.
Luca | with Agnar & Reika
"I'll be sure to amaze all of you! I don't disappoint, in any manner." he grinned, winking at the duo near him "Shall we make our way to the dining hall? We're here, so we might as well take advantage of what they offer. I'm looking forwards to seeing what sort of meals they offer to us, considering the mix of commoners and royals we have here."
Rekka | with Callan
Rekka watched the owl with interest. Whether or not animals liked him was a real hit or miss. Cats tended to dislike him, while dogs loved him. He'd never really tried to interact with an owl. A racoon he passed before had tried to take out his eye, so hopefully it wouldn't be a similar experience. With the meeting done, he made his way over to Callan "Are disappearances common in human schools?" he questioned, greeting the other with a friendly smile "My name is Rekka, by the way."

(Nice!)
Black Eagles | Grimm ✧ "Sounds like we'll be getting acquainted with the training grounds sooner than I thought," Grimm stretched out his arms and stifled a small yawn, "Regardless, I'm wasting away over here," He jabbed his thumb towards the entrance, "I don't know about you guys, but I'm going to go eat," He began to walk back the way he had come at a leisurely pace, not looking back to see if anyone else was following.
Golden Deer | Estelle ✯ At Professor Philomel's dismissal, Estelle glanced around for a moment. She felt it was a good idea to go to the dining hall, but she didn't particularly like the idea of eating alone. Would it be strange if I asked someone to join me? Surely I am not the only one who would prefer to dine with company. She considered asking Callan given that he was the person she had spoken to most and ended up just standing there for a brief moment as she watched him converse with the kitsune.
Blue Lions | Rieka ❆ Rieka hadn't realised her hunger until the words 'dining hall' and 'meal' were spoken. She wondered what sorts of foods were being prepared. Ordinarily, the wolfskin hunted their food or traded for it so fancy dishes weren't often on the menu, "Yes, lets," She replied shortly to Luca, her tail twitching in anticipation, "What do you people normally eat?"

Vincent | Black Eagles Classroom | Grimm, Silke
"We can't have that," Vincent agreed. "I am also curious about how the others will fight." He nodded as Grimm left for the dining hall. "We should probably get over there too. I won't say no to a good meal." With that he headed over to the dining hall as well.
Agnar | Blue Lions Classroom | Luca, Rieka
Agnar nodded. He, too, was curious about what kind of meals this place had to offer. For the most part he just ate what he hunted and the few things that could grow in such a cold place. It didn't really offer much variety. "I don't know much about the food here either. They'll probably have a lot of stuff we don't see back home. So we'll probably get more than some meat and berries," he said. He turned to Luca. "Let's find out, shall we?"
Callan | Golden Deer Classroom | Rekka, Estelle
Callan was still thinking about the upcoming mock battle but he looked up when Rekka approached him. At the Kitsune's question he shook his head. "I don't think so," he said, wondering what have given him that idea. But with how there was a rule against wandering about at night it didn't really come out of nowhere. Then he returned the other one's smile. "Nice to meet you. I'm Callan. You're from... Morfis, right?" He briefly glanced around the room and spotted Estelle. After a moment of hesitation he beckoned her over. "Should we head over for dinner? " he asked Rekka and then nodded to Estelle, wondering if she would want to join. So far she was the only noble he had talked to and for now he wanted to stick to the people he knew.

Golden Deer | Estelle ✯ Estelle was somewhat relieved when Callan beckoned her over. In truth, she had been eager to speak to Rekka as well and it was good to know she wouldn't have to impose herself on their conversation to do so. She walked over and gave the kitsune a friendly smile while also blinking gratitude at Callan, "I'm Estelle," She introduced herself quickly, not bothering with her family name this time as she didn't expect him to recognise it anyway, "Are you two heading over to the dining hall?"
Blue Lions | Fion ♔ Fion wasn't so interested in going to the dining hall. He would go later when it was hopefully a little less busy. Instead, he found himself wending his way back toward the dorms, enjoying the cooler air as the afternoon begun to wear on. There will be plenty of time to introduce myself to the others. No need to talk to everyone on the first day... Though I am sure Alaris would beg to differ. The prince's sister did not share in his introversion. She was bubbly and familiar with a good portion of the nobles.
Black Eagles | Grimm ✧ Grimm, hearing footsteps behind him, slowed his stride to fall back in next to Vincent and Silke, "So these disappearances? Were we meant to know about those?" He kept his tone casual, but it was an odd thing to think about really. What was more odd was that Halvor hadn't mentioned it; granted his brother's enrolment had been a number of years ago. Guess it could just be people running away from Garreg Mach. I've heard some of the professors can be tough at times. Still...

Silke | with Vincent & Grimm
"To the dining hall!" Silke exclaimed. If anyone in the class had missed the info, they'd certainly know about it now. She tagged along with Vincent and Grimm, feeling they were similarly minded as she. They could discuss battle, and she felt she could convince them to do some training later if she played her cards right.
Luca | with Agnar & Reika
"Yes indeed! We need to food to keep our energy up." with how energetic Luca was, one would think he'd never run out of energy. But he was actually quite the big eater. As someone who was always moving and talking he burned enough calories to eat a ton, and keep his good figure.
Rekka | with Callan & Estelle
"It's nice to meet both of you!" Rekkas tail swished happily behind him. Two people were talking with him already, this was a great improvement from his lonely start "Let's head over! I'm excited to try your food. Though I am sure it won't be too different than what we ate."

Blue Lions | Rieka ❆ "That is correct. We make careless errors on an empty stomach," Rieka murmured gravely, looking mildly wistful as though she were remembering something. She paced out of the classroom alongside Agnar and Luca, "I have heard that there is a vast array of food here and that you even cook your meat," She mused, not quite sure what the purpose of the latter was. Raw meat was so much easier to obtain.
Golden Deer | Estelle ✯ Estelle nodded, "I am sure they have spared no expense," She said happily, hoping for towering desserts and plates full of only the finest ingredients, "Food aside, what is Morfis like, Rekka?" What she had been told of it was that it had a warmer climate than Fódlan did and that a number of well-renowed magic-wielders originated from there. The primary city, also known as Morfis, was often considered a metropolis of magic if her recollection served her right.

Vincent | Classroom -> Dining Hall | Grimm, Silke
Vincent chuckled at Silke's loud exclamation but grew serious again when Grimm spoke up. "This was the first time I heard about them," he said. "And our professor brought it up pretty casually. I doubt they want us to know. In any case, I think we should keep our guard up, just in case."
Callan | Classroom -> Dining Hall | Rekka, Estelle
"Let's go then," Callan said, looking forward to whatever food they would find at the dining hall. At Estelle's question he glanced at Rekka. He was curious about the Kitsune's country too. "This place must be really different for you. It's probably nothing like where you and your tribe live."
Agnar | Classroom -> Dining Hall | Luca, Rieka
Agnar briefly glanced at Rieka as she spoke and just nodded. "They even use ingredients from Morfis and Albinea for some meals," he told them. "At least that's what I heard. But if we're really allowed to cook our own meat I might actually do that some time." While he was eager to try out the food this place had to offer he knew he would probably miss what they ate back home.

Golden Deer: Neason-Golden Deer Classroom->Dining Hall-Searc,Open Neason walked over to his brother to head over for the dining hall. "What kind of food do you think there will be," he asked as he followed the other students to what he hoped would be the right way. "Maybe something with fish!" He began to rattle off other things that could he hoped would be there, even though there was the chance Searc wasn't even listening to him. When they got there, he headed to get in line and gave a small roll of his eyes when his brother choose to sit at a table instead. Searc-Golden Deer Classroom->Dining Hall-Neason,Open Searc shrugged when Estelle walked away, he was used to not socializing much so it didn't bother him when people left. He glanced when his brother was at his side and headed for the dining hall. He half listened to what ever it was that Neason was going on about as they walked together, it brought him back to happier times, when the two would sneak out as kids and play together along with commoner kids. When they got to the dining hall he couldn't help but be put off by the food, and choose to just settle at a table instead of eating. Ciarra-Golden Deer Classroom->Dining Hall-Open Ciarra hadn't developed the courage to talk to any of her housemates, and art of her wasn't going to go to the meal, but seeing soo many students heading there, she decided it would be best to go with, not wanting to stand out amongst them. She watched how the others were interacting amongst themselves, to try and get a feel for the kind of people they were. She thought back to everything the professor had said, this place was interesting to say the least. Blue Lions: Pierce-Blue Lions Classroom->Dining Hall-Fion(briefly) Pierce gave a small bow to Fion before leaving to follow other students to the dining hall. He hoped to be able to talk to his other housemates and get to know them, since that seemed to be what the meal was for, as well as talking to the other students from the other houses. Imrie-Blue Lions Classroom->Greenhouse Imrie didn't have a desire to go eat at the moment, instead she headed back for where the greenhouse was. Maybe she could talk to the greenhouse caretaker and be told about the flowers that were growing inside currently. She took the flower that she was currently wearing and observed it, the flower was a common one from her home in Sreng. She loved the pure white color with the dark pink spotting on the petals. Maybe she could send a letter to her parents and see if seeds could get sent back. Black Eagles: Orryn-Black Eagles Classrooms->Professor Room Orryn watched the students file out, not in the mood to eat as he had other things to tend to he headed off for the reception hall, where he would take the stairs to the second floor. It was quiet since all the noise would be done in the dining hall. Walking down the hall he went into his room there and settled at his desk. He looked over the students forms that were in his class to get an idea where to be teaching them. Alastair-Black Eagles Classroom->Dining Hall Vincent followed his house mates, he hadn't interacted with anyone except for Vincent but he shrugged. It wasn't like he would be around after graduating, he would probably return home to Albinea. Or maybe he would explore Fodlan for a bit, he wasn't entirely sure yet, but so far the place was to hot for his liking. Elara-Black Eagles Classroom->Dorm Elara headed off for her dorm, walking as fast as she could, she hadn't been hungry and the thought of being around a lot of strangers wasn't her thing. She closed the door to her room and locked it, before settling on to her bed. She let out a breath of relief being somewhere that felt safe, although her mind began to work out to many possibilities of what could go wrong with her being on her own.
