EVA stood still as he spoke, peering at him softly with her bright green eyes, her antennae twitching curiously. She tilted her head cutely to the side when he mentioned that he couldn't be caught, frowning softly. She points to the hornets and makes a couple sweeping hand gestures, every hornet dispersing and going who knows where. "EVAzzz hive... Letzzz EVA zzzee... Every perzzzon... EVA might not be zzzpeedy... But EVA knowzzz... Where all outzzziders are... No plazzze... EVA not zzzee..." She gives him an unsure look and frowns. "Outzzzider can try... If wantzzz... But wont get far... Unlezzz goezzz outzzzide... But zzztudentzzz die there..." She points her finger out, the bumblebee landing upon it. She stops speaking to nuzzle it with her nose before continuing.
"However... EVA underzzztandzzz... Not being liked... For powerzzz... EVA doezzznt remember... Family... Friendzzz... Rememberzzz lotzzz of hate... Outzzziderzzz scared of bugzzz..." She was making a good guess why he was skipping. She simply thought all auras were hated by those that didn't have them. She didn't actually know how close to home she was. "However... EVA permitzzz... No bullying... Alizzz neither... Aura hated... Elzzzwhere... But not here... Not at all..." Eva then gives Simon a cute smile. "Zzztudent zzzay zzzo... EVA detainzzz.... For Alizzz punizzzhment..." She then gives him a more serious look. "But zzztudent... Needzzz clazzz... Or elzzze... Zzztudent punizzzhed..." She held out her hand as if she was waiting for him to take it so she could lead him back to class, a cute smile on her face and a cute bob in her antennae.
Beth's eyes snapped open when she heard someone cry out and quickly hopped to her feet fully prepared to attack, but paused when she saw a green haired person stumble and run away . The brunette tilted her head in quiet confusion before shrugging and gathering her proper clothes. School was starting soon+ she'd confront that individual later. -EXIT-
Mephistopheles watched the bug people like he was viewing a film. Soon a plate with coffee cake on it poofed into existence hovering in the air to his side along with a fork. Then his empty cup refilled itself with hot chocolate instead with tiny marshmallows on its surface. He hummed to himself as he plucked the fork out of the air and let go of his drink which hovered instead of crashing to the floor below. He took the plate of cake in his free hand and used the fork to cut and take a bite of the semi-sweet pastry. He wasn't really that far from the two. Literally all they had to do was look up to see the colorful magician on his perch above them. A content smile rested on his lips as he ate occasionally letting go of the fork to take a drink of his warm beverage. What did he want? Just a way to pass the time for now and these to seemed interesting enough to do just that.

"Swear this one you'll save?" ╠══════╡♆╞════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╣ "Better lock it in your pocket, you're taking this one to your grave."
From tense to almost defenseless, Simon had little control over his reactions that morning. This girl, even if she was trying to convince him to do something he didn't want to do, was absolutely adorable. The bobs of her head, the expression in her eyes- Simon found himself feeling guilty and shaking his head, meaning he wouldn't run. He looked away from her awkwardly, folding his arms across his chest and glaring into the distance when she spoke of not being liked because of her powers. That was all the solid confirmation that he felt he needed. "I'll go if you go. You're Eva, I take it. I'm Simon." He said, taking her hand carefully. Small and delicate, like a ladybug's wing.
For a moment there was a relaxed peace, though something was twitching at the edge of his senses. Simon's eyes narrowed worriedly and he looked up, seeing a rather ridiculous looking man in a flamboyant three piece suit and pink, sparkling cape. At first he was confused, and then he got nervous. Simon didn't remember seeing him two days before as he was introduced as Alice's assistant, but even if he did it wouldn't have helped. Something very unsettling lingered about the man, and Simon curled his fingers tightly around Eva's. Even if Simon didn't feel threatened by other men, he wouldn't have wanted to be near this one. There was something in his eyes that scared him. "Please don't scream." He said quickly, pulling her up and towards him as he transformed to make a speedy escape.

Eva looked to him as he seemed to calm down, antennae twitching gently as if trying to feel out what he was thinking. She smiled cutely when he shook his head, trusting him not to run away from her. He even took her hand, making her giggle. "Well... EVA will... Ezzzcort you..." She closed her eyes and smiles a cute smile before taking a step, quickly realizing that he wasn't moving with her.
"Zzzimon... Okay...?" She looked to where he was looking, seeing Mephistopheles standing above her. She perked her head to the side and had a confused look on her face. She used her free hand to make a hand signal in the air, a small black butterfly alighting upon Mephistopheles's shoulder before Simon spoke once more, catching Eva off guard. "Zzzcream...? Why...?"
Then she was lifted into the air quite easily, the girl not weighing much, and was whisked away by the spider boy. The butterfly on the dapper gentleman's shoulder would sit for a couple seconds before fluttering and floating away into the growth, leaving almost untraceable specks of dust on his shoulder. Eva would use this to find him later, for she didn't recognize this man.

Mephistopheles watched the bug-people's interaction with amusement, a curled smile apparent on his lips. Then the white-haired male turned and looked up in his direction, their eyes meeting for a moment as he looked him over. The boy seemed to grow quickly uneasy by his presence. The magician then looked to the other meeting her gaze as well. He smiled and waved at the two of them with a gloved hand as his drink hovered in the air. However, before any conversation could ensure, the male transformed into his "inbetween" state and whisked the female away. He frowned at their sudden departure and lowered his hand. His eyes looked to his shoulder for a moment having spotted movement out of the corner of his eye. Seeing it was just a butterfly, he watched as it fluttered away. Then all of the things he held hovering in the air returned to a tabletop. Holding out an empty hand, his favored cane returned to his grip. He pushed off the edge of the railing and let himself fall freely down to the first floor. Before an impact could occur, he simply vanished in midair. There then not.

After leaving the grounds of the school, Sami decided she needed to be alone for now...or at least until someone came. She arrived at the plaza and plopped herself down on a chair, letting out a sigh. "I knew coming here was a mistake..." she muttered, looking at the sky. "Couldn't even make a good first impression...with how limited my skills are...I...damn..." she let out another sigh and just stayed there, taking out a book and starting to write.

Anhalt has short, messy-like snow white hair. Hi eyes are both a blood red color, and seem to strike fear into others sometimes. He stands at 6'2", and weighs around 182 lbs. Anhalt seems like a flimsy person, but he has enough muscle to stand his ground. Mostly from sword fighting and playing/holding instruments. Though he does seem like the guy that people would feel safe around. He's also sporting six-pack abs. His clothing consists of a plain black long-sleeved shirt. With a pair of black pants, being held up by a black belt with a silver buckle. He has a pair of custom made dress shoes, and is able to walk and run easily in them while being comfortable.
Anhalt was sitting on the edge of the fountain the center of the garden plaza, taking a rest after class. It was quite interesting to learn something like that, though it pretty threw everything he knew out the window. But hey, we can't all be winners, right? The snowy haired male gave a heavy sigh, leaning back some and looking up at the ceiling. It seemed to be a pretty peaceful day today though, and quite nice to boot. Of course, the weather could b a bit warmer, but beggars couldn't be choosers. So he decided to just pretty much deal with it. He had his violin and mini stereos with him, in case he decided to play his music for any reason. And with how quiet it seemed to be today, he may do just that. "Everyone needs a little sound in their lives. And I'm here to provide it." he muttered, giving a quiet laugh as he got up to stand, stretching a bit. He then set the stereos on the fountain where he was sitting, plugging his "musical device" into them. He started flipping through the songs, eyes moving quickly back and forth, up and down, trying to find the best song to play. After a few minutes of searching, and some curious glances from the strangers, he finally found the perfect song to play. Giving a nod, he hit the play button, taking a few seconds to get ready.
When the music started playing, Anhalt took the time he had to wait to start playing to jump up on the fountain's border. The song playing, for those that knew it, or happened to glance at the device plugged into the mini stereos, would recognize it as Hikaru Nara. When he started playing, the male moved around a little, walking back and forth. Even though he knew one wrong step would cause him to fall either on the ground, or in the water. It was a risk he was willing to take. The more the song went on, the more wild he moved. Soon he managed to start dancing as he played, his feet moving dangerously close to the edges of the fountain's border. But soon the song was over, and he was back where he started. He gave a bow as he got applause here and there, giving a smile as he sat down to relax again. Happy that everything was a bit louder now. "That's better." he muttered, closing his eyes and smiling, giving a content sigh.
[(OOC: Talked to Margery already, and got a couple of my character out of Limbo. Anhalt is one of them.)]
Anna entered with her own violin case, following the sudden surge of music with a familiar source. Ironically she was trying to find a place to play it- but it was nice to find someone else was interested in such a regal instrument. She stood at the back of the crowd that had amassed itself, and as they slowly seemed to die off and go back to their business, as did she with a shrug. After briefly entertaining the thought of interacting with the kid, it passed. Besides, she wanted to play somewhere, not just listen. As she passed through the plaza she noticed a girl looking particularly depressed. Something bothered her about that. "Why so glum?" She asked. Straightforward. No introductions. No Hello's. Nothing. It was easier to remain anonymous that way- no point in chumming up with anyone.

Sami was listening to the music rather contently as she was writing, and then looked up when someone spoke. In front of her was a girl, whom seemed about her age. Sami forced a smile on her face. "It's...nothing out of the ordinary...I just...had a bad first day." she replied back to the girl, and then looked at her journal, slight tear stains crashed on the book. She wiped her eyes, realizing that MAYBE she was crying. "I'm sorry...this isn't a very good first impression either huh?" she forced a chuckle and then looked back at the girl.
Anna stared, observing- calmly, she brushed back a lock of hair, her face indifferent to the other girl's emotional responses. "That's...crying is natural." She concluded. Perhaps too analytical? She sat down abruptly next to the girl. "Well, first days don't always go as planned. I was late to class, and now I have to feeeeed...." she paused and reached into her pocket, pulling out a slip of paper. "........a shark. I think." with a shrug the paper was returned to it's spot in Anna's pocket. At an attempt to make a joke, she added, "Maybe I'll cry if i get bitten? there's also the chance I could lose my nose, apparently." She didn't move and remembered at the last second to force a grin to try to give her intention more of a boost of sorts.

Alice's teleportation spell brought her into the underground plaza, her black and gold speckled dust settling on the ground beneath her, though it quickly seemed to disappear. She shook herself and stretched, looking around for anything interesting to do before she had to excuse herself back to work. All work and no play made Jack a dull boy, or so it was said. There was a crowd dispersing from around the fountain with happy chatter here and there, along with the bubbling of the water and distant sounds of birds. It was peaceful, but she couldn't help wondering how long this peace would last. Shaking herself again and slapping her cheeks to align her thoughts, she really began her search for entertainment. There were two girls, one of them a seeming a little under the weather, and Anhalt, who she had met briefly on the train. Of course there were others, but none of them caught her attention too much.

Anhalt noticed someone else walk nearby, but she seemed interested in someone who seemed sad close by. Though he did notice the violin case she was carrying, and gave a nod of acknowledgement and a smile. She was the first person he had seen that played a violin, other than himself. Of course, he had met other fellow music players, but he didn't know if either of them could play the violin. He'd have to find them later and ask, out of curiosity. Giving a sigh, he started to pack his stuff up, making sure that he didn't forget anything. But out of the corner of his eye, he noticed dust seem to appear into existence. He remembered seeing something like that earlier, and knew only one person it could belong to. Finishing packing his stuff, he gave a wave in her direction, and began walking towards her. She was pretty much one of the only people that he really knew, since he had talked to her for a bit on the train ride here. But they were interrupted by some other students, who were wild and crazy. But there was the man who had made that delicious tea, and he had hoped to meet him again soon. Maybe trade a few recipies. His thoughts on this were cut short as he finally reached the Headmaster, and gave a slight bow. He held his violin case in his right hand, his left hand hanging at his side quite uselessly. "I didn't expect to see you here so quickly after class. No other duties to attend?" he asked, giving a small smile. He knew she probably had a lot more to do than hang around here, conversing with a student. But it wasn't his place to say anything.

Alice turned on her heel at the sound of a familiar voice and smiled as she saw Anhalt coming towards her. Her eyebrows raised in a slight expression of surprise, though she didn't give any indication of what surprised her. "Hm~? Oh, no no. No duties that can't wait until tonight, anyhow. I assume you're the one I'm to thank for livening up the place?" She asked, beckoning him towards a nearby bench. She crossed her legs as she sat and leaned against the back, looking out over the students and staff who clamored in the early afternoon sun. The water of the fountain babbled pleasantly even over the low din of conversations. "I assume you have questions? Not to be short, I'm just not very good at small talk, but I like talking to people." She said, amber eyes flicking vibrantly from bird to Aura to plant all across her visage. She seemed a little nervous, but had never really been particularly calm in the first place.

Anhalt has short, messy-like snow white hair. Hi eyes are both a blood red color, and seem to strike fear into others sometimes. He stands at 6'2", and weighs around 182 lbs. Anhalt seems like a flimsy person, but he has enough muscle to stand his ground. Mostly from sword fighting and playing/holding instruments.

"I guess you could say that. It was just too quiet, so I decided to make some noise." Anhalt replied, giving a smile and a shrug. He followed her over to the nearby bench, sitting down beside her, leaving about a foot of space between them. He set his violin case on the ground in front of his feet, to make sure no one tried to run off with it. He wasn't sure what he'd do if that happened. Then again, the Headmaster was here. And from he had seen her do... well, the thief wouldn't be able to get away even if they tried. But then again, everyone here seemed to nice for this, so he pushed those thoughts to the back of his head. He looked over slightly at her when she asked him something, and as she continued to look around the garden plaza. Well... there was one thing he wanted to discuss with her. It was a hyperrealistic dream... well, nightmare in this case, that he had. It was about some girl getting eaten by a huge, black, scaley beast. And he remembered seeing her on the train, which meant she was a student. But why did he have that nightmare? He shook his head slightly, and decided to bring it up. If only to try and get it out of his head. "Well, there is something. I had this strange... nightmare last night. One of the students was being eaten by this strange monster. She had short, black hair and an eyepatch. I think her name was Lila?" he said, scratching his chin. He had overheard it only once, but even then he wasn't too sure. Well, he hoped that the Headmaster would be able to explain.
