Seven nodded, "I'm willing, that is if you're willing. If we're both willing. I guess." He shifted his weight from foot to foot, suddenly very aware of the fact they were both still just standing in the doorway. Stile certainly looked excited, though Seven wasn't quite sure why he was so eager to spend so much time with him. People very rarely did, he wasn't exactly popular with either class. Glancing down at his feet, Seven shrugged, "Yeah, well why would I want to do something I'm not that good at? I'm kind of a mess when it comes to this sort of stuff." He knew that if his parents and brother hadn't been quite so insistent, he'd be in Class B based solely on his inability to fight in any way resembling competence.
Jack slowly lowered the phone, but his smile didn't change, "And I thought I was the dumb one, holy cow." He gave her a long meandering look, then chuckled, "Who told you we were dating? Because whoever it was is sorely mistaken." Pushing himself up to his full height, he jammed his hands into his pockets, "But thank you for giving up your brother's secrets so easily, it'll make this all the more entertaining. I'm going to destroy him." Reaching out, he clapped a hand onto her shoulder, "And you just helped me do it. So seriously, thank you." He gave her a big smile and a harsh squeeze with his hand, then turned away and began to saunter off.

(oh, you've had a bad time with it. Then sure, by all means, use the word triggered. It's certainly appropriate and designed perfectly for the exact situation you're going through and your use of the word doesn't invalidate the actual meaning it has in any way, shape or form.)

Cassie had never actually visited the infirmary, and she wasn't sure she ever wanted to again. Her gaze zeroed in on the nurse's little... project, and she slapped a hand over her mouth and stepped back, half-cowering behind Ria. "Oh my god..." she mumbled, squeezing her eyes shut. She really did not need to see that after this morning. That same feeling of sickness from earlier was returning and she couldn't even muster up a wave to the woman.

Piper just shrugged and stuck a hand in the pocket of his sweatpants, starting to head back to his dorm, muscles tense and probably would continue to be tense until the next unsightly clash came. "They wont, don't worry about it. I may be new at this, but I'm not stupid," he pointed out, remembering the report he most certainly had to write before sleeping. Stifling a groan of discontent, he brushed his hand over his face and through his hair. This was a lot more problems to sort out than he had anticipated. "I hope it was funny, at least."
Stile just nodded again, hoping that would properly convey his willingness without him having to accidentally gush and embarrass himself. Smirking a little, he leaned against the doorway and raised an eyebrow down at Seven, looking incredulous. "I dunno, you seemed to handle yourself pretty well out there today. Maybe with a little more confidence you'd be a master sharpshooter, I'd say," he pointed out, smirk falling to a bit more of a subtle smile. Though more prepared than Seven to fight monsters, he was far better at punching down people than unpredictable creatures with only a single killing motive. In a way, they shared the same sentiment.
Wisteria's eyes went wide at the revelation, and she immediately assessed every angle, looking for something she'd missed. It all came down to Caspian's words, and she swore she was going to punch him in his soft parts the next time she saw him. Piper's wrath would be another thing. Taking a hissing breath through her teeth, she dropped her hands to her sides and clenched them into fists, refusing to admit defeat. "You think Piper finding you hot is the most useful of his secrets? Sounds like you're a little desperate, Kenning!" she called after him in an attempt to salvage a bit of her pride, scoffing and turning on her heel, rubbing a hand over her shoulder. Looked like the plan was back on again, and now she had no qualms about playing dirty. Her brother wasn't that easy to destroy, and neither was she.
Dr. Ganymede blinked, noticing Cassie's reaction, then stood up in a flourish. "Oh sweet honey iced tea-" she gasped before glancing down at her gloves, to the mess on the table, then practically whipped the things off into the trash, throwing a sheet over the heap in a matter of seconds, and spinning back around once more to sit in her chair, legs crossed. "How can I help you today?" she asked, throwing on a big grin as if nothing at all weird had happened or had been happening.

(I understand that it's a popular meme, but that doesn't mean it's okay or appropriate for such use. I really would appreciate it if you didn't use it in such context again.)
Anna stepped forwards, examining Dr. Ganymede's project with interest. The blood and gore didn't bother her in the slightest. She nearly reached out to more closely examine it, but realized she wasn't wearing gloves just in time and managed to restrain herself from a more detailed examination. Turning around, she frowned slightly at the sight of Cassie hiding behind Ria, but didn't honestly blame her, "Cassie, this is Doctor Ganymede, the residing physician...?" She trailed off for a moment, realizing she had no idea what the good doctor's PhD was actually in or if she truly was an MD. Turning back to the doctor, she gave her a small smile that didn't quite reach her eyes, "No injuries here, Doctor, just escorting these two on a small tour."

Alessandra smiled slightly to PIper before she made her walk beside him. "It was enjoyable for a while. Thought i felt a bit awkward because i thought at first that you were actually his. I may flirt but i aint about stealin other's partners," she mused to him as she gently nudged him before giving a light laugh. "But seriously... I do mean what i say Piper. It isnt flattery..." she hummed in the end, cheeks bright red and looking away before she looked up at him.

"Uh- hi...!" Cassie's voice had dropped a bit, a hand lingering on her stomach, as If that would help her situation. She peeked over Ria's shoulder, glancing between Anna and the doctor. "I think we can, we can uhm... go now... right? I mean, there's not much to see about the nurse's office than this."

(Maybe)
Caspian and Frank soon walked away from the giggling girls. Caspian was feeling pretty proud of himself. The rumor would hopefully spread pretty quickly at this rate. "So frankie have any plans for today?" Frank shakes his head. "Was just gonna work out and train. After that beat up someone for fun." Caspian chuckled a bit. That sounded like something Frank would do. "Well, I'm going to head down to the pool. I suppose we could part ways here."

Jack called back to her, feeling as though his day was getting better by the minute, "Just satisfied. I've got all I need, Navoo." Her purposefully butchered her last name, smirking as he rounded the corner and began to head back to his dorm. Anna was going to be so proud of him, he'd actually managed to catch Wisteria off guard and get her a little flustered. Such a feat wasn't easy and he only had Piper to thank.
Seven noticed the subtle change in Stiles body language and took a half step back, maintaining a healthy amount of distance between them. He wasn't used to this much attention from anybody and certainly no attention like this. Glancing down, he fiddled with the flute in his hands, fingers lightly depressing the keys, "Yeah, I suppose I could be. I'd rather not though. I'm kinda just here for the bare minimum, you know? So...yeah...." He really wasn't good at this. Stile seemed so nice, despite first impressions, but the initial excitement of finding someone who enjoyed music had suddenly been soured by the pressure that seemed to be accompanying it. Nerves twisted at his gut and he looked everywhere except at the man in front of him.

Dr. Ganymede resisted the urge to swat Anna away from her work, kept at bay by the simple fact that someone was interested and unaffected by its garishness. She looked quite proud sitting in that chair, as if she were well accomplished and on her way to curing some incredible disease. In reality, it was just meaningless personal research, but she was rather satisfied with where it was heading. "A tour, huh? Well don't be shy, I'd love to show you the more dangerous chemicals in my collection," she teased with a hearty laugh, but was at least 80% serious.
Piper laughed a bit, thinking about ever belonged to Jack sounded a little ludicrous said out loud, but he was a little surprised by her last statement. He blinked down at her, noticing her blush, and tried for a smile. "I think you're a bit too sweet to me, Alessandra. But I'll think properly on your words, when my brain and body aren't half-dead," he conceded, a flash of sharp teeth showing from behind his lips as he tried to look nice. "You have better options, y'know."
Stile just smiled some more, nodding in agreement, noticing Seven's change in demeanor out of the corner of his eye. He straightened up in response, trying not to crowd the doorway with his rather tall frame. "I know what you mean," he agreed, trying to remember quite why he himself was at the school- the memory was a little shoddy, patched up like a poorly-made quilt. On the same line of thought, he frowned, pressing a thumb and finger to his temples. "What was that song you were playing?" he asked, voice dropping, trying to remember. He'd kick himself if it was from a dream and he'd predicted this whole thing. The least he could've been was more well-prepared.
Wisteria resisted the urge to huff aloud in frustration, dragging a hand through her long locks as she stormed the school in search of a foolish little informant, one with a big, big storm coming.

Riandylan had questions. Lots and lots of questions. They were partly relieved but partly sad when Dr. Ganymede hid her work - their fascination was just barely triumphed by shuddering horror. They turned slightly and patted Cassie reassuringly, as if to say she was not alone.

Anna would have loved to have taken her up on the offer. This was one of the few rooms where anything dangerous to the student body was allowed and a tour of its inventory would certainly be helpful. But a quick look back at Cassie and Ria told her that now was perhaps not the best time, if the horror evident on both of their faces was true. So she shook her head, a note of disappointment in her voice, "Another time, perhaps. Thank you for your time, Doctor." Turning, she lightly pressed a hand to both of their shoulders and began to gently escort them out.
Seven relaxed slightly as Stile backed up just a touch, his heart slowing and racing mind calming. Though a look of concern soon crossed his face as Stile seemed to be in some sort of stress, "Sonata in E Minor by Bach. Are you..." He tilted his head, looking closer, "Are you okay, do you have a headache or something?"

Stile thought of the song name, trying to figure out where it was from. He was almost certain he'd heard it somewhere before, but he knew he'd never heard Seven play until this moment. Surely it was a dream then, and he could remember it now, brief glimpses of sheet music, hands, blurry faces, a flute, a place that was familiar but he knew he'd never been. Squeezing his eyes shut, he tried to make sense of it. Why was Seven so familiar, this moment, this conversation? A sick feeling of melancholy twisted his gut, and for some reason he felt sad, felt a stifling sense of loss. Flickering a watery glance to Seven, brows furrowed, he shook his head. "I'm fine, maybe I have a concussion that's making me delirious," he joked in poor taste, pressing a palm to his forehead.
Dr. Ganymede tried to hide her look of disappointment, clapping her hands together and simply nodding in their direction. "Of course. Don't be a stranger!" she grinned at them, thinking of all the concoctions that would surely make a blast of a show. But alas, the pleasures of youth were far more important than explosives, which she just couldn't understand, but wouldn't interfere with their little tour. Pulling free another pair of gloves, she pulled them on, past her wrist. They'd be back, one way or another.

((xD I like Dr. Ganymede))
Ari pushed open the door to the infirmary, the bandages on his arm soaking with blood. "Hey doctor, I may or may not have reopened my -" His words cut off when he caught sight of Riandylan, who was still looking back at Dr. Ganymede as Anna guided her towards the door. When they turned back around, their eyes widened as hope bloomed across their face. Ari carefully avoided eye contact as he stepped around the three others. "Er, reopened the gash on my arm. Could you look at it again? I think I might've made it worse."

Alessandra smiled then, looking up at him with another giggle. "I know I do. But why would I choose someone else? Out of all the people, I chose you," she hummed then, eyes flicking around the halls so she wouldn't run into anyone on her way. "Either way, the other options never kept my attention. Theyre more of... friendship types. You? You're quiet, mysterious and you're a leader. I think that deserves someone to share the weight of the world with," she stated as she placed her hands into her pouch of a pocket then. "If they don't share the weight with someone else, then they could crumble. Everyone has a breaking point; Its best to have help before reaching said breaking point."

Seven stepped forwards, brow furrowed as he reached out and tilted Stile's head slightly to try and get a look at his eyes, "If you have a concussion, you should go to the infirmary." Ducking into his room, he placed his flute on the bed then closed the door behind him, "Come on, I'll walk you there." He didn't want Stile collapsing along the way, especially when there was a high probability that someone from his Class would jump at the chance to kick the stuffing out of a defenseless B kid.

Cassie was glad to get out of there, although she admittedly felt a little guilty. Anna seemed genuinely interested in that stuff. Gosh, she was so rude for doing that. She internally chastised herself, brow furrowed and lips pursed as she looked towards the ground. Not a smart move on her part, as she ended up running into the approaching Ari, muttering out a quick "sorry" before stumbling a few steps out the doorway. Noticing Ria's excitment, and Ari's subsequent ignoring of that reaction, she leaned over and grabbed the student's arm, pulling them out of the room. She was going to assume that was whoever had hurt him, as she had been so concerned about earlier. Cassie only offered a silent, reassuring smile to them, figuring they wouldn't want to discuss. At least not with Anna, who had a very odd, not at all comforting air about her, around. Speaking of, Cassie turned around to face the other girl. "I... I'm sorry about that. Guess I'm just not feeling all too well today. But if you ever want to go back there, get that full tour of whatever- I'm assuming horrific -things they have back there, I'd be glad to! Just catch me on a day when I can keep my lunch down." She frowned. "I mean, i-if you want someone to go with. Er, don't have anyone else to go with besides li'l ol' me! Which is really stupid because I'm sure you have plenty of people to go with and-" Realizing what she was doing, Cassie bit her tongue, and held up a finger towards her as a silent gesture of "and I will shut up now."
Hollis had somehow managed to keep his tongue quiet, fiddling with his clothing absentmindedly as he did so. It took a lot of effort not to yell at Jack, admittedly. He was just so easy to mock. He was also someone who could hurt Hollis very badly, and had done so before. Negative reinforcement was a hell of a thing. "What's your plan now, smart one? You shouldn't have listened to Caspian. You know like more than half of the time what he says is complete BS?"
Lilah was walking down a hall. I think. Ngl I don't completely remember.

(she'd just left Stile and is roaming with arms filled with snacks and I believe they'd been about to watch the princess bride...?)
Anna glanced between Ari and Ria for a moment, wondering what on earth had possibly gone down between the two of them. Last she'd checked, they were buddies. Apparently something had changed and she couldn't help but wonder if the rift between the classes was somehow growing further apart. It certainly seemed like groups had been getting awfully catty lately and Risher's disappearance hadn't exactly helped. Perhaps her plan would need to be a bit more involved than initially anticipated. She mused on this for a moment as she followed the other two out, though Cassie's ramblings forced her to pay attention for a minute. She gave her a small smile, consciously softening her expression as best she could, though there was still this authoritative tilt of her chin that she couldn't quite mask. Anna was used to being in control and even as she made herself seem gentle and relaxed, that confidence never went away, "I would love to accompany you again, Miss Steele. And please don't shut up, you're doing just fine."

Caspian and Frank parted ways for a moment to change their clothes. Since the training room and the gym were near by both boys decided to just walk over there together. Caspian changes into his favorite pair of black swimming trunks. He grabs his white towel and puts on some gray basketball shirts. He didn't bother to put a shirt on. Frank was changing his clothes as well. He changed into a white sleeveless shirt and some dark red shorts. Frank takes a moment to pose in the mirror before walking out the door to wait for his friend.

Cassie blinked. What a strange way to phrase that. Instead she decided to focus on the former part of her statement, brightening up a bit. "Really? You sure you don't have better people to hang out with? Because, like, I'd totally get that. You know, being the new kid and all, I understand if you don't wanna be seen with me. Plus, your the other class, right? People get angry about those things, I think."
