"It's no problem Lelyna...if it's for you, it's never a problem..." Mikhail listened silently as Lelyna began to him how her class was yesterday as she held his coat close. He blinked at hearing that Gannon was interviewing someone. Well it was time that the Diviner class got a Professor. He wasn't really one to fully care about meeting new people for the most part. But, since Lelyna seemed to like the new professor candidate so far, in this case he wouldn't mind all too much. It was nice to know that she enjoyed her time with the professor though, it always put him in a good mood to know that she was happy. A wide smirk was plastered on his face when she brought up Kayl. The prince wasn't surprised that the male had quite a bit to say, despite him just arriving that morning. It was a great thing that he was able to freely speak without having to take a while to adapt to the class room. "Kayl? Your impression is actually right. He does struggle with it quite a bit, just like you do. But obviously, struggles in a bit of a different way."
Mikhail began to think of all the times that he had to take Lelyna to the infirmary due to her raiment. It really pained him when he had to do it. He hated seeing her feeling weak, tired, hurt, or anything that could negatively affect her. He blinked when Lelyna questioned if Kayl was a friend from back home. He nodded and glanced down at her, "Yes actually. Him and I are good friends I would say. Surprise surprise. I would often drag him into my little games and quests for a bit of trouble. He's one of the few people I tolerate back home." Mikhail found himself thinking of past memories with Kayl and chuckling at the thought. "By the way, you aren't feeling too cold right now, right?" He rubbed her shoulder and held her closer, so she could feel more of his body heat.

Lelyna was surprised but pleased to hear that Mikhail and Kayl were such good friends – Mikhail needed more friends in his life, in her opinion. He was a sweetheart when he wanted to be and could really benefit from more friends in his life - especially if he was going to be King one day. “I’m glad that you have another friend at the Academy now Mikhail, there's only so much trouble I can help you get into, after all.” She teased, nudging him lightly. There had been a few times he'd included her in his hi-jinks, but she could only do so much, given her blindness.
Feeling Mikhail rubbing her shoulder, she smiled at his words, blushing a bit as he held her close. “Yes, I’m much warmer now, thank you.” When he pulled her closer, Lelyna didn’t pull away, in fact she kinda liked that he held her like this... “I just hope that you don’t get cold, too. I cant have the Prince of Valor getting sick because of me.” She said with a small smile. Granted, if he ever did get sick, she'd do what she could to care for him.
“By the way, will you play for me today?” She asked, curious to see if he would play for the class or wait until they were alone. Lelyna had noticed that Mikhail didn’t ever volunteer to play in front of others and typically waited until everyone had left, including the Professor, before playing for her - only her. Lelyna didn’t blame him for being a bit shy, but she hoped that one day he would move past it – he played beautifully.
It now being a free day, Henry makes his way to the court yard of the Academy, finding himself free of classes. After a brief moment of looking around, he goes and sits on a bench near the outside of the area, so that he wouldn't get in anyone's way. In particular, he was somewhat concerned that, since it was indeed a free day, the Elementor professor would be wandering around, and dealing with her was one of the things he wanted least.
Now on the bench, he takes out his pipe, fills it, and lights it, taking a couple puffs before relaxing and letting that take its course. He then reaches into his bag and pulls out a book, which he start to read from, pausing occasionally to refill the pipe with tobacco. With the pipe jutting from his mouth and the book in his hands, he didn't much care what else happened, so long as no one bothered him solely for the sake of bothering him.

Ivar had a free day today so he decided to go for a walk through the academy grounds before taking a trip into the town for some light shopping and afternoon tea. He was on his way out of the academy to begin the shopping segment of his day when he noticed one of his fellow classmates on one of the benches. Ivar rose an eyebrow and scoffed as he saw Henry the smoker kid from the elementor class. Maybe Ivar should go to scold the boy for yet again smoking? But that would not accomplish alot. However he was a little intrigued by the boy's addiction. "How did he get his hands on that pipe and tobacco? You have to be an adult to buy those things," he thought to himself as he stared at the guy. He found himself approaching Henry, not feeling anger or judgemental but he was more curious now. "I must commend you for smoking away from everyone else this time. You seem more considerate than that time in class," he spoke up towards Henry as he walked up to the smoking boy. The smell already hit him however he stood away from the path of the smoke as to not choke to death like last time. "May I sit next to you?" Ivar asked Henry.
Hearing Ivar speak up, immediately addressing the topic of smoking of course, Henry rolls his eyes before looking at the intrusive party. "Clearly, you were not there for when I explained myself. People in that room bring up fires, freeze things, and do all manner of other things that are normally considered socially inappropriate, but the moment I pull out a pipe, I'm Satan." He takes another puff and lets it out slowly, then another the same way, and yet another.
On the third puff, he activates his raiment and draws the smoke closer to him. At the same time, he notices how Ivar was keeping his distance. "May you sit next to me?" Henry laughs for a moment. "You can't stand the smell very well, can you? Well, if that bothers you, then it's not in your best interests to do so, now is it?" The smoke forms into an arrow, pointing away from Henry and the bench. "So I'll do you a favor. No, you may not sit next to me. Is that considerate enough for your health?" He offers a little smirk, then turns back to his book.

Patrick Lockheart - Second Year ~ Patrick and 's Room > Entering Courtyard ~
Whatever had compelled his White Raven to take wing in such weather was beyond him, but as Rick darted down the corridors, his usual consideration for those who he passed by had gone very much like the bird - Out of the window...
It was only as he reached the grand doors of the Academy that the thought of covering up with something to protect himself against the downpour even crossed his mind... "Oh Well...Too late now." Shaking his head, Patrick lifted up the back of his jacket and pushed open the doors, casting a look to the skies before stepping swiftly out.
Branwen had sailed around the skies above Rick's window for a few minutes then as she spotted movement, she had glided down into the Courtyard. Her beady eyes scoured the world around her before she located a tree overhanging a couple of benches. She would let out a 'Cark' before landing upon the nearest branch, showering those beneath with a dusting of rain which had collected on the leaves... "Rain! Rain! Wet! Much Wet!" Her words would obviously come out as a barrage of noisy Clicks and Kraa's as she flapped the water from her wings before beginning to preen.
Seeing the flutter of white in the dark grey of the morning, Patrick would release the back of his vest - something he'd held up over his head in an attempt to stave off the rain - and make his way over.
"Hey," It was strange to see others outside in such a deluge, but Rick felt it only best to greet them as he jogged to a stop, "...Nice weather, isn't it?" he would glare up at the White Raven at this point, "What on Earth do you think you're doing?" The tone of his voice would become hushed, but as he was speaking to the bird as though he was talking to a human, there was always the chance the others might just get confused - but he didn't quite care at that moment, "You'll get saturated out here!"

This guy was really full of himself the way he talked down to Ivar. Had he of been younger, Ivar would of punched him just for talking like that. Thankfully Ivar had matured alot since then. Then again Henry did have a point, smoke would not be the most dangerous thing in that room. "I would not say you are satan, most seem to hate the smell and the effects tobacco smoke have on the body so I can also see why the teacher got so worked up. Funny thing I guess, had you been an adult then people would not be so concerned if you were using the pipe as a conduit for your Raiment," Ivar responded with a sigh. "Maybe the teacher was right and you do need to find a more creative way of producing smoke, then again you aren't wrong for thinking that there are worse things being used in that room. But I must say the way you act around others will worsen your cause, im sure people would be more understanding if you were less cocky," Ivar bluntly stated.
Ivar rose an eyebrow by Henry's denial of his request to sit next to him. It was true that the smoke bothered him but Ivar felt somewhat drawn to henry. Ivar didn't feel sorry for the guy or want to flirt with him. But there was something that Ivar could not put his finger on just yet. Ivar simply shrugged at the gesture he could not be bothered to get worked up like Nova did. "If that is your wish, but I wouldn't worry so much about my health when yours is clearly more at risk here. You might not see it now but some people are worried about your wellbeing," and with that Ivar simply turned around and walked away. "He can keep the cocky guy routine going, but he will soon learn that he is not the top dog around here," Ivar thought to himself as he walked towards the town. He wondered if he would see Henry in class again after the stunt he pulled. It would actually be a shame to see him get kicked out of the class as he made things a little more interesting, for better or for worse. Another student with a bird came upto them but Ivar was already leaving and he wasn't going to stop. "I will be fine don't you worry, be sure to keep yourself dry!" he said with a friendly smile and a wave as he walked off towards town.
"What do I care what others think? I'm here for myself, in the end." Henry makes one last comment on Ivar's statement before the latter had walked away. Henry's attention is then drawn to the boy with the bird, and he puts on a little half-smile, as he was amused by Patrick's chasing after Branwen. "Bird getting out of hand?" He notices the boy speaking in a hushed tone to the bird, and leaves them be for the time being. After another few puffs, he finishes up with that bit of tobacco, and begins to clean his pipe. It was about time for him to move on, it seems. Where he would go, he didn't know. Maybe the bakery, again. It was a free day, it wouldn't hurt to get away from the school.
"Haha, it's a little late for that now, my friend," Patrick would smile turning back to wave as Ivar advised him to keep dry, then, continuing to turn so he now faced his original destination, Rick would focus his attention toward the other male, he was here for himself eh? Clearly something had happened either between them, or earlier beforehand, but with no idea what it was, he shrugged, it wasn't his problem. "She must have seen something outside and decided to come take a look," he would look back up to where he presumed his window was, "My room's somewhere up there," he would lift his hand to point, then turn back as Branwen started up again,
"Stupid! Too Wet!" she would bark, "Soggy Spirits!" At that comment, Rick's eyes would widen and he'd glance around, seeing no sign of anything spiritual hanging around before noting another cloud of smoke as Henry came to the end of his tobacco and began to clean his pipe,
"That's just smoke, Silly Bird." Shaking his head, he would reach up an arm, extending it towards her and smiling as she hopped down, "You should recognise that from Grandfa's caravan," he would glance over his shoulder to smirk at Henry, his grin fading slightly as the male had clearly decided it was time to move on, "Ah well, let's get you back inside."
With that, he would turn back towards the Academy, putting on a bit of a jog as he made his way back towards the doors before casting a brief look back towards the gloomy day as he headed inside.

Tala Maxwell ~ Entering The Courtyard ~
The rain was still coming down as Tala drew level with the courtyard, of course the plan was to return the book, but for the moment, it dawned on him that it might just be the last chance he would be allowed to read it - having lost the tome, then failed to inform anyone until it was eventually returned to him by the one man he'd attempted to avoid...
A little reluctant to step out into the rain again, Tala decided to sit in the archway looking out onto the puddle-strewn courtyard. Drawing his legs up, he sat sideways on the ledge beneath the arch, his back against the wall as he opened the tome.
As he flicked through the pages, he skimmed past paragraphs he'd already read, remembering the creatures he'd conjured from the shadows and even smiling as he recalled how the pups had played at hunting them before being warned away by the Alpha...
It was so tempting to start summoning the creatures again - after all, with the gloomy day, shadows were everywhere - but the youth's mind would swiftly return to the incident where he had attempted to form the blade back in the Botany Classroom to defend himself against the vine, only to watch it melt in his hands...
Setting the book by his side, Tala decided to turn his attention towards learning to create something else... That way, if he was ever attacked again, he could quickly summon a blade and dispatch the enemy...
Rubbing his hands together - partially in preparation, yet also for warmth - he would mould a small, black orb like he had before, rolling it between his fingers for a moment before focusing on the image he wanted to create... At first, it seemed to take shape, but after a second or two, it would once again melt into a black goop, slipping between his fingers before fading away... He would continue try this several times with the same result, becoming rather focused in the task as he tried to find some way of maintaining the form so it could be used effectively...

Once he finishes cleaning and packing up his pipe, Henry gives one last look around the courtyard. Indeed, since it was a lackluster day in terms of weather, not very many people had shown up. Tala had returned, Henry noticed. It seemed that he was destined to see that particular person every day. In addition to being an Elementor, after all, they also shared electives. Well, Henry wasn't a huge fan of things he deemed "destined". Especially since he had already decided to avoid the Elementor class for the time being because he didn't agree with the professor. Looking away, he puts away his book, and heads off, deciding to check out his room, since the housing situation had just recently been finalized. ((Exit))

Kayl Ardrus De'Valaer
Probability || None...
Enters from the Library...
╔═══════════════════
Walking slowly on one of the winding paths of the courtyard, Kayl stepped forth almost mindlessly as his thoughts encircled the events of the library. He kept replaying his own actions, and his own thoughts over and over, asking himself why his fear so easily overtook him. Still holding the book in hand, he looked down at it for a moment, passing his finger over the title, 'A Dream within a Dream'. Kayl's tension eased a little as he looked up and over the courtyard. It was still very damp from the night before, not that the showers had let up. As Kayl stopped a bit further up the road, there was a tree that just so happened to grow partially into the stone work, lending a covered spot for which Kayl could sit, without being drenched.
Sitting on the ground with his back against the tree, Kayl took another breath as thoughts of possibly learning the truth behind his nightmare started to flood him once more. Shaking his head as if to rid himself of them, Kayl opened the book and started to read, drowning out his own thoughts while trying to find comfort in this new story.
Tala wasn't entirely sure how long he'd been sitting there practicing, but after a while, he'd become so frustrated with it that he'd just purely given up... He'd seen several students come and go whilst he'd been trying, but very few if any cast a glance in his direction - Sitting to the side had its benefits in that those with the intention of coming, or leaving, rarely glanced from their forwards-facing path...
Breathing a sigh, Tala decided ultimately that it was time to go and so, reaching down for the book, which he was glad was still by his side, he slid from where he'd been sitting, casting a final glance towards the world outside before heading back in.
~ Tala Exits the Courtyard ~
Passing by the library, he couldn't help but note a large group of people leaving - although that was usually a good sign, who was to say what lay behind the doors? And so Tala decided to keep the book for one more day and continued along the corridor back to his room.

Henry steps out into the courtyard. Not too far away, some festival was taking place, but Henry himself didn't much care for that idea. It was like to be much too crowded. He could get far more peace out here, he thought. And so he goes to his customary spot, a bench sitting somewhat under a covering roof, where he wouldn't have to be in any sort of snow. There, he sits and takes out his pipe, the flame of which, along with the smoke he'd be drawing in, would help to keep him somewhat warmer. He also again pulls out a book and begins to absently read, not really paying much attention to the rest of the world. After all, who would be there to pay attention to? Most other people were out having "fun".
Knowing her fur wouldn't keep her very warm, Jesse resisted the urge to return to her Fennec Form and scamper on ahead of Tay and instead relished in the warmth her Father's gift gave her. The gloves were a little large, but the man had taken the time to pick out something that matched her jacket and she was grateful for that. Not once did she think her Father's new partner might have been involved in the idea of the gift, but to receive something from him and a note in his handwriting made her feel so much better.
"What would you like to do first?" She had liked the sound of the pulled boar meat and the minced pies Tay had mentioned earlier - especially as she hadn't had breakfast just yet, "I wonder if there will be something I can send back to my Father?" Keeping close to Tay, she would be first to the Courtyard Doors, pushing them open before suddenly feeling a little hesitant as the wind rushed in and chilled her face, "Brrr...."
She would peer out curiously, the cold making her nose tingle as she looked around, hoping to see something that would draw her out - sure, she had her coat, but feeling the chill now, she was unsure... "...Is that Henry?" she would tilt her head, pointing the lone figure as Tay came level with her.
