Me, sweating: uh, dancing it uh.... idk man it's a game mechanic kaj;kajf)
Luca | with Agnar & Rieka
"Yes! In battle many things manner. If you have a skilled enough dancer, they can often inspire someone to move again, even if you normally wouldn't be able to after attacking." he waved a hand "It's much easier to show or experience it. Which should be interesting, especially with the house battle coming up." Luca nodded.
Rekka | with Callan
Rekkas tail wagged happily, much like a dogs would "No no, it's nice to see you so excited! It makes me excited to try flying as well. I am unsure about magic myself, but it does interest me. You'll have to show me more of if once you start learning." his experience with magic pretty much stopped at the beast stone and the occasional fire that came along with his fox form.

Blue LionsImrie-Greenhouse-Professor Philomel "understandable, gardening takes a lot of patience," she said as she watered the plants. She nodded at his words, it was often hard to find enough time for this type of hobby. "There will be the whole year, so I'm sure there will be times where there is nothing to do." She examined one flower closely, it had purple petals, and she was certain of the name, it was a violet, a traveling salesman had sold some to her once, they didn't far well in the climate of Sreng but they were pretty while they had lasted.

Blue Lions | Rieka ❆
"I look foreword to it," Rieka said, nodding, "Hopefully, you'll impress me with your inspiring dancing," She had finished her Saghert and Cream and was now beginning to feel rather lethargic. Rieka tended to fall asleep early, rarely deviating from her regular sleep schedule, "Today has flown by," She spoke quietly, stifling a yawn that made her eyes water.
Golden Deer | Professor Philomel ❀
Philomel chuckled as he picked some more of the beans from their stems, "It takes a careful hand," He agreed and dropped the beans into a small pot, "And, truthfully, no small amount of strength. It may well make good training for some of my students."

Vincent | Dining Hall | Estelle
Vincent hesitated for a second, not sure if he was supposed to tell. He also didn't want to worry Estelle too much. But then again it was kind of an important thing. "In a way, yes," he said finally, lowering his voice a little. "Professor Orryn mentioned something about disappearances but he didn't elaborate. So either it's a thing of the past and this rule only exists to be completely sure of it or maybe there is more to it." He thought about it for a moment. "The thing is, I've never heard of anyone disappearing after they've been sent here. If they had it would be impossible to cover up. So I'm really not sure what to make of this."
Callan | Dining Hall | Rekka
"It's not too impressive yet," Callan said, sounding a little unsure. But Rekka's own excitement was also kind of encouraging so maybe it was alright if he rambled on a little. "But I already have some experience in it. I guess I kinda have a gift for dark magic. Maybe I can show you when we start training. But you'll definitely get to see it in the mock battle!" Since the Kitsune really seemed to be interested in it he dared to continue. "It might be a bit different from black magic but it also falls under the 'Reason' category. There's also white, or 'Faith', magic and it's vastly different. I don't know much about it, though. So if you want to try your hand at using magic you should first determine if you want to focus more on Reason or Faith," he tried to explain.
Agnar | Dining Hall | Luca, Rieka
"Well then. We're counting on you," Agnar said, sounding both curious and slightly amused. "We'd be off to a great start if we were to win the mock battle." He took a moment to finish his plate and nodded at Rieka's comment. "It sure has. Not much time left to really do anything. So what are you two gonna do now?"

Luca | with Agnar & Rieka
"I wonder if they'll be doing anything else. Though, if we're not allowed to walk around alone at night I doubt they'll let us stay out late. I've almost been shanked before, so I can understand." he yammered on about an experience he had when at a small town at night. Someone had charged him with a knife, but he thankfully hadn't been hurt. The man wasn't incredibly good with a knife "Either way though, I guess we'll be turning in soon." he cut off his story with that, remembering that it was rude to dominate the conversation like that.
Rekka | with Callan
Rekka listened with interest. He considered the two options, eventually looking like he decided on something "I see, perhaps Reason would be good. But Faith also sounds interesting. So many options!" he exclaimed "I've never taken the time to look into magic, so this is good to learn about. Thanks for explaining!" Rekka really should know more, but honestly the studious dedication it took to learn magic had never appealed to him before. But speaking with someone who was passionate on the subject certainly changed his opinion a bit.

Callan | Dining Hall | Rekka
Glad that Rekka seemed to find those brief explanations sort of helpful Callan just mumbled a "You're welcome" and focused on his meal for a moment. After a while he said "You know, it probably won't hurt to learn a bit of both. Just a spell or two from what you're not focusing on. If you want to learn magic, that is. You'll probably get a better idea of what you want once we start to train, whether it's magic or weapons."

Blue Lions | Rieka ❆
"You have?" Rieka frowned as he blustered on. What had a dancer done to almost get stabbed? Or had it just been a case of bad luck? "You lead an interesting life, Luca," She said with a finality that suggested the conversation was coming to a close as far as she was concerned, "I intend to start heading back to the dormitory," Lifting her plate, she placed it atop a stack of other plates.
Golden Deer | Estelle ✯
Estelle's eyes widened and her hands flew to her chest like startled birds, "Goodness! Professor Philomel certainly did not mention that," Disappearances? Disappearing to where exactly? The knights of Serios were an omnipresent force or at least that was how it felt to her. She struggled to understand how students could go missing in such an environment and how she had never heard complaints from any of the noble families to the tune of vanishing students, "If that is truly the case, then clearly there is great need to protect ourselves," She bit her lip, "Perhaps there has been a misunderstanding and Professor Orryn was just cautioning you as a matter of course?"

Agnar | Dining Hall | Luca, Rieka
"Guess you never now what kind of people are running around at night," Agnar said after a while. Surely the monastery was a safer place than where ever Luca had had that encounter but he supposed the rule still made sense. "Let's just hope nothing of that sort happens here." He nodded to Rieka and put his plate on the stack as well. "See you tomorrow then. I guess you're heading back too, Luca?"
Vincent | Dining Hall | Estelle
"If it is then he really has a strange way of going about it," Vincent replied. He considered it for a moment but then shook his head. "No, I do believe he meant what he said. Not that any of us now what to think of it. Silke, our house leader, doesn't seem to be too concerned. I can't really say for sure what Grimm is thinking but he seems to agree that we should be on guard."

Luca | with Agnar & Rieka
"Talk to you later, I'll miss you. Try not to miss me too much, as hard as it will be." Luca told Rieka with a smile, falling into his usual dramatics. He then turned his attention to Agnar "Yeah, probably! I don't have anything else in mind to do. Unless you want to go galivanting around, breaking the rules on our first day. Now that would be fun." as a commoner though he could get kicked out and that might not be the best course of action.
Rekka | with Callan
"Good point. I'll look into it! Though, I'd want to see more about human life first. I only passed through a few towns on the way here, and this is the first time i'll be surrounded by so many humans." he seemed eager to learn and experience, unlike a certain rabbit that won't be named. He finished up his meal.

Blue Lions | Rieka ❆
Rieka gave Luca another amused look. What a funny person. She gave a short wave and exited from the dining hall. Agnar and Luca both seem like good people. She was looking foreword to speaking to them again. She headed directly for her dorm nearby the training grounds, more than happy to call it a day.
Golden Deer | Estelle ✯
Estelle nodded slowly. She did look a little concerned at the prospect, but when she spoke her voice was resolute, "Let us look out for each other then," It could be that there was nothing to worry about as she hoped. Regardless, there was no harm in taking extra precautions, "Of course, your classmates will be in a better position to do that than I!" She glanced at the table where Callan and Rekka were talking. She had ended up speaking to Vincent for longer then she had intended, "And here I only came to say hello," She smiled slightly and dipped her head to the boy, "I think I should rejoin the others."

"We shall do so," Vincent agreed. "I suppose it gives us another reason to give it our all in our training." He chuckled quietly as Estelle glanced over to two other students, probably her classmates. "In any case, it's been nice to catch up on everything. There will be plenty more times to talk. Well, good luck for our first real day here tomorrow."
Agnar | Dining Hall | Luca
"With all the knights around? Too high of a risk of getting caught," Agnar replied jokingly. "No, I think I'll be heading back too. Wouldn't want to stay up too late on my first day here."
Callan | Dining Hall | Rekka
"I think you'll learn plenty from just being here," Callan said after finishing his meal. "Don't stick solely to your classmates, though. You'll find out even more if you meet the other two houses as well. I heard some are even from outside of Fódlan, like you."

"You too, Vincent," And with that Estelle excused herself and returned to Callan and Rekka, "My apologies," She said mournfully, seeing that the two had already finished their meals, "I was speaking with a friend of mine," She finally set down the plate she had been holding for the entirety of their conversation.

Callan looked up when Estelle rejoined them and gave an understanding smile. "It's fine," he told her. He was slightly surprised that she seemed to have friends from outside of the Alliance but he supposed that it was only natural for a noble to be familiar with other nobles even when they were from a different nation. "You probably had a lot to catch up on."

Estelle laughed and sat down across from him, "Yes, you could say that," She began her meal, conscious that people were starting to file out, "He actually said something which I thought was interesting," She continued thoughtfully. It would be okay to tell them, right? If all the Black Eagles knew, it was only fair that the Golden Deer did too, "About the nighttime rule."

"You make a good point, I do want to speak with as many people as I can." since he was here, he really should take advantage of the fact. Rekka was eventually going to have to go back to his tribe after all... He looked over when Estelle returned to their conversation, greeting her as she sat down "Nighttime rule, huh?" Rekka replied.

"Oh, that one." While Callan thought that the rule was a little strange he hadn't dared to ask their professor about it, not wanting to look like a fool in case it was something super obvious. But evidentially there were other people who were wondering about that too. "So the Black Eagles know why we shouldn't wander around by ourselves?" He looked expectantly at Estelle, curious about what she had found out.

Estelle dropped her voice slightly in the way that one often did when they were conveying gossip, "Well... apparently Professor Orryn told them it was because there have been disappearances," She said, quickly took another mouthful of food and glanced back over at the Black Eagle students, "I do not know any details though so it might not be as bad as it sounds..."

The kitsunes ears perked up and he looked intrigued "That's... not good. But, that's exciting as well, like a mystery!" nothing of interest happened in his tribe, so something like this was exciting. Not good of course, but something could be bad and also make your blood rush "I wonder why they haven't caught the perp..."

"I wonder why no one told us about this," Callan said after a while. If this was true it really wasn't something that should be kept from them. "Maybe they know too little about it to actually do something?" he suggested but he also wondered how likely that was. Still, as concerning this was he kind of had to agree with Rekka. There was something exciting about it. Not that he would ever say that out loud. "Still, looks like there really is a good reason for that rule..."

"Exciting?" Estelle echoed, slightly taken aback, "If you say so," Perhaps it would be more exciting if she were a skilled combatant, but as things stood, she couldn't be sure that she would be able to prevent herself from being kidnapped, "It is strange. This must not be the first year that this has been an issue," She shook her head. The night-time rule had not been odd to her at first. Now, she completely understood it, "I would not worry about it - many of the people here are nobles, others are from outside Fódlan like you, Rekka. They will keep us all well-protected."

Rekka | with Callan & Estelle
"Yes, it would be a bad mark on the school if they did not protect the students here." even more so if the beastkin got injured or kidnapped. It was the first year they were allowed here, and it was a test of the weak trust between beastkin and human. One small thing could have the built up trust falling down. Rekka shoved those thoughts to the back of his mind and stood, stretching out "Well, best not to worry on it. That'll just stress you out."

"They can't afford to not protect their students," Callan agreed. For a moment he wondered if the school's reputation was part of the reason why none of the students had been informed about the disappearances. "You're right. Let's just follow the rules and focus on our training." He grinned a little, not entirely convinced but still trying to lighten the mood. "We have a mock-battle to win, you know."

"I wonder... well, either way it'll be fun!" Rekka said with a grin. He wasn't the competitive type, but would do all he could to try and win. He just wouldn't be too upset if they lost. Rekka glanced at the sky out a nearby window, it was getting late. He was sure they'd start to be ushered back to their rooms soon enough.

While Callan wasn't sure if they had a chance there was no point in worrying about it right now. Tomorrow he would now if he was as good as his classmates or not. He followed Rekka's gaze and then looked back at him and Estelle. "Anyway, do you think we should head back soon?"

Blue Lions Imrie-Greenhouse-Professor Philomel "There are already people causing problems," she asked with a frown. It was only the first day and there was already people causing issues? "Who?" She wanted to know who she would need to not associate herself with as to avoid being seen in a similar boat as the problem children. She wondered if it was a noble or a commoner that was causing problems already. |

"Oh, no-one yet," Philomel chuckled. It seemed that he had finished harvesting and was now putting away his tools, "I am sure that all my students will be well-behaved. I only meant to say that gardening is a good source of strength training. One that most will no doubt overlook," Seeing that Imrie was still watering, he held out his hand for the watering can, "Thank you for your help. It is starting to get dark so if you want to get something from the dining hall and haven't yet, now is the time."

He had only gotten to know two of his classmates but for now that was more than enough. Estelle and Rekka seemed nice enough so he really couldn't complain. "Let's go then," he chuckled as he headed for the door.

Blue Lions Imrie-Greenhouse-Professor Philomel Imrie glanced briefly to the outdoors and noticed how dark it had already gotten. "Would be wise," she said handing it back over to him. "I just have those ones over there otherwise I believe everything got watered." She offered a smile. "Thank you for letting me help. I hope you have good luck with your students." She offered a bow before excuses herself, heading for the dining hall. |
