"You b***h...!" Rheaus raised his hand, ready to smack the ever-loving crap out of Elfi. At the last instant he pulled his hand down and moved to walk past her. If what she was saying was true, the teacher would have to deal with her at this point.
"Excuse me, sir?" He said to the man with his strange accent. "That girl there," he pointed back to Elfriede, "is harassing me. Please do something with her." Hopefully this would bring about the peace Rheaus so desired. But there was the issue of who was breaking the rules, and whether or not there was any rule against fighting at this academy. If there wasn't Rheaus would gladly slap the ladynuts off Elfriede.

Sebastion:
Sebastion looked over at the student trying to get his attention. The girl was eyeing him weirdly and the Zora looked about to throwdown. He must have missed something while lost in thought. "Ah, yes?" He cleared his throat slightly. 'Definitely being creepy.' He swallowed as he thought.

"Well?" the prince said a bit impatiently. "Is fighting permitted here? Shall I take of her, or will you make her leave me alone?" Suddenly it sounded like he wasn't talking to a superior. Then again, the sun does not envy the horizon.

Elfriede raised her hand up in the air toward the older participant in her little game. "Ah, teacher, I think that if you would just explain to him that clothes are necessary for on land travel, it would be much appreciated. I merely don't want him to be detained in public because it would probably be embarrassing." Not that she would know. Okay, so maybe she did, but it wasn't as embarrassing as she thought most people would think it was, it got her away from all the opposite sex, so it was really a plus. Pulling up her legs as she sat on the bank she looked toward the pond. "I guess fish prince's aren't all they're cracked up to be if they can't handle a little girl by themselves." She said absently, picking up a rock and skipping it over the water. "He probably wouldn't be able to beat me in skipping rocks much less a social confrontatio." She said to herself. She didn't really know if fighting was aloud in school, but she was pretty sure small contests like this would be much more fun, and have a lot less pain dealing with them. She didn't even care if she won or not. All he needed to do was take the bait... 'Ha fish pun.'
Sebastion shook his head. "Fighting is strictly prohibited! The only combat that should take place is within the Combat Training Classrooms!" It always baffled him how easily people would engage in a fight. He would never understand. He looked at Rheaus. "And, clothes are not exactly optional. I understand that might be your culture but some people would probably prefer you wear clothing." Next he turned to Elfriede. "Harrassment is not acceptable, either, miss. This includes name-calling and disrespecting other people and their cultures." He exhaled after his jumbled mess of explainations and went over a mental checklist to make sure he covered everything. More or less.
-+-+-+-"Is there anything I can help you with?"-+-+-+- --QUOTED--
"I see... It looks as though we are both at fault." He looked at himself, seeing nothing wrong with his nude form. These Earth people! "I'm sorry, but I never swim with clothes on. To be honest, I find the idea of them backward." Ah, Hell no! Rheaus' hearing wasn't that dull. If this was a competition, the prince would accept that challenge. He excused himself from his conversation with Sebastian and walked over to Elfriede again.
"Here, let me show you." The prince took a flat rock in hand and flung it with gusto. The pebble skipped ten times before sinking half way across the pond. One does not simply live in the forest. One skips rocks as well.

"Thank you so much for the words of wisdom teach." She said. At least she didn't have to worry about fighting with the guy. Seeing the fish prince grab a rock and sling it into the water for ten skips was... yeah. Elfriede raised an eyebrow. She wasn't all that fantastic when it came to things like this, and he was obviously very good. She peeked up at him. She could make a jab at him for it, but she figured that she should just take her loss like the proper half-ling she is. Scrounging around in the moist earth near the water, she picked up the flattest rock she could find, which was pretty much a triangle with one mildly flat side. Throwing it up and down in her palm she tested it's weight before she cocked her hand back and flung it. She watched her rock as it skimmed across the water, the rougher edges making it turn as it went. Mentally she counted, and taking a guess of how much velocity it had, she figured it would just barely reach nine. seven, eight, nine....ten? She didn't really know what to think about that last pop across the water, she just hit ten, but then the rock skidded across the the surface making one partially circular ripple and one long line slightly curved line before it disappeared under the surface. Looking at the fish prince she tilted her hand back and forth with scrunched shoulders. "Eh, ten, ten and a quarter?" She could let him make a decision on that.
"Not bad... For a beginner. Let me show you how it's done." Rheaus pointed to the other side of the pond. There was a rusty old pole buried in the dirty sand used long ago for Heaven knows what. "That pole. I'll make it ring," he said confidently with his curious accent. Then the prince got one of the more broad rocks there were. There was some roundness to the bottom, which would make it spin very well. Rheaus widened his stance and narrowed his eyes. If he had a cap on he would've southbill'd that b***h. Taking a half turn the prince launched his stone with fierce speed. A snap of the wrist at the end gave it a magnificent spin.
It flew close to the surface for a while, threatening to land on the obsidian mirror. Finally the first tap, another long float in the air. After three of these it was three fourths the way across. Then there was a cluster of who knows how many skips. It was like the pebble was charging up for one last jump, and that's just what it did as it leaped out of the pond like a flying fish and struck the rusty pole with a resounding THWONNNGGG~~!!
"Music." Said Rheaus with a hand to his ear... Area. He gave a self-satisfied smirk to Elfi and turned to leave. It looks like this fish had just schooled the half-breed.
Age: 16 || Species: Fairy/Naiad|| Status: Feeding Fish || Money:$500
"Wow, you're like the prince of skipping rocks." She said. She wasn't going to say making music because that pole sounded like a dying cwt and he obviously had no ear for it, or ears at all, hmm... Picking up a rock as the fish turned to leave she figured she'd give it a shot. Mimicking the fishes movements she shot the rock across the waster with all the strength she could muster, which evidently was nowhere near his because the rock started skipping a bit before his did, popping out of the water one last time it smacked against the pole clanging loudly and sending the rock flying through the air. Elfriede watched the airborne rock elegantly shoot back toward it's caster before she stepped aside. Maybe if she thought about it she would have said something, but she didn't, instead she watched the small bullet s**t past her and pop the fish on his... butt cheek? Butt fin? Whatever it was, popping her lips she lifted her hand toward the pole. "That was its fault." She said. After a second she wiggled her handd and then she turned and sped walked away. (Exit)
Physics was an interesting thing. The rock from Rheaus' stronger arm, supposedly, flew farther, skipped with less resistance, and died out shortly after colliding with the pole on the other side of the sizable pond. Elfriede's, on the other hand, flew with less force, conceivably more resistance per skip, and managed not only to hit the same mark as Rheaus but actually hit said pole with such force that the ensuing bounce was enough to launch the rock clear over the pond, a distance greater than Elfi's initial throw, and still have enough left to make an--*cough*--impression on the posterior of the prince. Suppose technique was the x-factor here... In any event this is the same universe in which a Zora is running around like normal and an honest to goodness djinn is a teacher in a posh academy, so this phenomenon could be attributed to the ******** of variables non quantifiable the discerning scientists refer to as magic.
The prince actually jumped a little at the impact. Needless to say there was a certain amount of reflexive clenching which made it all the more comical. Rheaus looked back over his shoulders with disgust in his eyes.
"First bread, now rocks? ... Leave me alone." It sounded like he was about to cry. Elfriede would never know as the prince marched his wounded rear and pride straight out of the park. It was a good swim--now thinking of the positives, and Rheaus would be able to make it most of the night far from the pond.
Sebastion stared dumbfounded, once again, at the scene that unfolded before him. No, he wasn't a physics major, but he had been on this planet long enough to know rocks didn't do that on their own. He scratched his head. Could this be considered harrassment or bullying? He didn't think the girl meant to hit the Zora, but she was the one to put initial force into the rock. As a teacher, his senses told him he needed to do something. As a blood-sucking evil being, he decided to let it slip and pretend he didn't see it. He turned his head to the side just in time to notice a slightly blue tinted shadow slip out of the park through a gap in the fencing and trees. "Ah." He breathed slightly and ran toward the trees.

The next day Bree was enjoying herself in the park, sure, weekend, yada yada, but the method had a parallel runner: the Dark Arts. It looked as though she had slept, it being the dark circles under her eyes, the languid wrist movements used to flip pages of that crusty yet surprisingly stubborn parchment? thing she'd come to know as an entity evermore intelligent--or at least more intelligible--than her classmates, the slope of her neck which melted down her head and down to the ground as it was pressed upon by the invisible weight of the heat of her fevered mind. Turning that bulb up slowly, Bree caught sight of Kira standing there. There were a few bees seemingly to make a pyramid out of themselves. on an empty spot on her bench.
This was always the best time of year. It was that time when the thick Summer nights finally opened up to the idea of a breeze. When a good book and a park bench became a helicopter ride through dimensions of logos. Poor bibliophiles! They had to wait with unglorious thighs until such a time came again; it was only a few nights out of the year, you know, that perfection arrived. Perfection in the way your best friend's mom, the greatest chef ever, came to put it in pseudo-nostalgic social media; in the days you convinced yourself the world was full of fish-eye vistas and tingly aromas.
The allure was in the hope of escape from such trite miscaptures of the Autumnal magic. With four centuries, Anise learned to appreciate even the chase, which of course gave her an adequate dopamine release each time she sat to pick through the opening acts like some kid pretending to be mesmerized by a movie he's already seen a hundred times until, phone, casually, the game was lost and another bit of hipsterism crept up and spooked the bejesus out of Anise like that same kid, who ironically was captivated by the object of his ruse anyway.
There she was, scrolling, sipping. Nature had its own distractions, though, as leaves flickered their pale golds and transient rusts in the setting sun on their way through. Who was scrolling now? Anise had to pay them full attention, because it wasn't that she wanted to keep them but the other way around. Just like those scarf freaks on her phone, now in her pocket. "I like it here.... I don't care what they say upstairs."

~Hello, I'm Luca~
"You have me mistaken for my elder brother.."
Luca was enjoying his free period peacefully. So why not talk a walk in the grand park? One of his most favorite spots to enjoy some peace and quiet. Luca truly enjoyed the natural beauty this realm had. Amon his older brother was correct, this realm is magnificent in it's own right. "Mmmm..." Luca mused as he felt the breeze brush past his skin as he walked happily. Completely not even noticing the other girl in the area.
The pale girl let out a soft grunt in discomfort. Even with the signs of the leaves changing she hadn't prepared for chilly weather. Immediately she began to regret not taking a jacket with her, her face wrinkling into a somewhat stern and uncomfortable expression. However, she tried her best to resist the temptation of going back to her dorm, she had already come this far. Plus that chilly weather was a good method of keeping the introverted girl alert.
Walking down the leaf covered path way, Luka had noticed a few people she recognized from school. She had never met them of course, but it pleased her to know students were out actually doing something productive with their time. Especially with things being so hectic. Eventually, Luka had come across a rather odd figure. She didn't know who she was or if she was from school, but she seemed to just 'fit' the scenery. Like the girl belonged there.
Somewhat captivated by her, the much darker-dressed Luka approached the peaceful stranger, who seemed to be somewhat entranced by her phone. Which reminded her, 'I left mine on my bed..' Shaking away the somewhat trivial thought, Luka cocked her head slightly, staring at the girl for a moment. Not saying a single thing
