Zacharie Dubois (1 Egg Found) headed to Quad

"Guuuuuh!!" Zacharie groaned in frustration when Andre informed him that he hadn't managed to find the third egg. They had been doing so well, too! "We'll just have to find the next one..." He murmured under his breath as he checked over the clue sheet and map. He thought that perhaps he should go to the Fountain...but the first egg had been at a statue so maybe they wouldn't put one there?

...Or maybe they would thinking people would think that way.
Hrm...this was more difficult than he anticipated.

The boy puzzled over the best location to look before waving his hand around and letting it slap down on the paper willy-nilly. It looked like he would be heading the the Quad. He heaved a soft sigh of relief because while he would have gone to the student lounge if that's where his finger had pointed...that sounded like it might be a little crowded with strangers. Saved by his own random movements, nice! After sending Andre a quick text telling him where he was headed to next, the boy was off. It didn't take long for him to reach his destination and when he spotted all of the trees he couldn't help but smile brightly. Yes! He had definitely chosen wisely and happily began searching around the trees for the fourth egg.

Andre Dubois (1 Egg Found) headed to Student Lounge

Two out of three eggs wasn't bad in Andre's opinion but he knew that Zacharie was determined to get as many eggs as possible so he carefully thought over which spot to check next.

The temptation of a hot beverage and pastries did not sway him in the slightest.
No way.
Not this guy.

"It could be there, though." He reasoned with a soft hum as he made his way to the student lounge, a slight hop in his step. If he just so happened to get something to snack on...Zacharie didn't have to know. It was a rather nice lounge and as he made his way through he kept an eye out for any strange eggs laying about but honestly...his attention was mostly on the pastry case being blocked by another participant. "Would you mind terribly if I took a look as well?" He asked as he approached. He hated when people leaned over his shoulder or got into his space without asking so the least he could do was ask this stranger.

Terry Hyatt ~ 2/6 eggs found ~ History Building to Fountain

When they found the building and Terry looked around a bit, he gave a smile when he spotted the next egg. "Looks like you made the right call there Abigail." He praised then took the required picture. He gave a thoughtful hum when the next three possibilities were given, trying to decide where they should go next. "Well the first was by the statue, the second was apparently in the art building, and the third is here in the history building. Of the three places that could be where the next one either the fountain or the student lounge seem the most likely if they kept to pattern."

He thought for a moment then gave a shrug and a smile to the other two. "How about we go to the fountain?" He suggested then started to lead them there after they had the pictures they needed as well.

Tress Gervene (1 egg found) - The Fountain

Tress raised a brow. Was this child not listening to anything she was saying?
She wouldn't have put it past him since children - particularly ones this young - didn't tend to heed others all that much. She would have liked to ask how it sounded like nagging to him when she already explained that nagging had to be repeated, so only if he was continuously repeating her words in his head or imagining them to be repeated, she didn't know what he was talking about.
He hadn't even disputed her definition of nagging, so she really didn't know what his idea of the term meant. Perhaps he didn't, either, and was just arguing for argument's sake. Why did children have to be so unreasonable?

If her intention had been to scold but it wasn't received that way, how had it been received? It certainly sounded like it had been received that way with the way the boy kept complaining about it. What difference did he even see between nagging and scolding aside from the former being a repeated version of the latter?

Closing his eyes, she began to rub her temples as she asked herself why she was trying so hard to reason with this kid or question his logic. She wasn't even sure if they had sound logic at his age. Teaching high schoolers was annoying enough, but grade-schoolers? They could be someone else's problem.

"Yes, very pretty," she murmured in acknowledgement as he held the phone up to her, vaguely recalling having read somewhere that children were to be supported and encouraged no matter how nonsensical their whims and notions were, provided it didn't hinder their growth or spoil them. She didn't know whose child this was, but she wished their parental unit would come claim them as soon as possible so she didn't feel like a babysitter.

"The students at Romano's Constitutional Haven painted them," she informed him. "My students," she added mostly to herself as an afterthought.



Wasibru Óir - The Quad

(TBA)

Madness March (2 eggs found) - The Student Lounge

(TBA)

Richard Bell -- Student Lounge

Richard had been so focused on the scones and danishes that he didn't hear anyone approach from behind him. Was he going to get the apple cinnamon danish? Or maybe a strawberries-and-cream danish? Or maybe a muffin instead? He was still tempted towards a scone, though, and he didn't really need all of--

The fact that he had been asked a question then processed through his fixation on pastries.

"Ah, hello! No, not at all." He cleared his throat and shuffled aside so that they could both look inside. "Sorry about that." Had the other person been waiting there a very long time? "Missed breakfast this morning, and everything looks delicious."

Kirra Morrow - the Fountain

Well, thought Kirra, that sure was a big glass box full of nothing. The Administration Building had held nothing of interest to the ten-year-old. She needed serious sunshine to get all of the boring off her skin.

Outside presented a number of interesting opportunities, though whether they had a Bunny seal of approval remained to be seen. Kirra was beginning to doubt the Easter Bunny had been here at all. She certainly hadn’t seen any eggs.

At first, she headed for the Quad and the very inviting treeline – some of those were bound to be climbable, otherwise what was the point? But a shiny and someone closer monument attracted her attention. A big fountain, glittering and gurgling by the edge of the grass area.

Annnnd… She spun around just in case. Her cousin was nowhere in sight! Grinning broadly, Kirra hopped up on the edge of the fountain, holding her hand out to the bubbling water spray. She’d keep hunting in a minute, but for now it was lovely and cool!




Gigi Gennaro - the Student Lounge

Was that a supressed laugh? Or just utter teenage disgust? Gigi found it hard to tell exactly how badly her joke had gone down with Briar. Oh well, it wasn’t like she needed Kirra’s friends to like her. He seemed like a nice enough kid, if awfully serious to be friends with her cousin.

“History hall’s a good idea too! Good luck in your search!”

It didn’t take her long to hunt through the science labs. Mostly closed doors today, and if there was an egg at all, she missed it. Heading outside again, she spotted Briar leaving the History building. She headed back over, but before she could ask how he’d gone this time, another teenage boy raced up to join them. She took a step back, not wanting to intrude, but the newcomer offered her a polite greeting. She wasn’t quite sure how to respond - she’d really only just me Briar too, but she didn’t want to rule out becoming his friend.

“Oh, I… I’m Kirra’s cousin. Gigi,” she said, assuming that Peter might know Kirra too. “Nice to meet you too, Peter.”

With another wave and a smile, she left the boys to their plotting, and turned her footsteps towards the Student Lounge. The event must be half-way over by now, and she could really use some liquid help to stay awake. It’s not an addiction, she told herself, it’s a calling.

It looked like this shop was sensibly open, even busy. Gigi searched around the lounge area while she waited for the guys at the pastry case to make their choices. Did she need cake as well as coffee, she wondered? Maybe if she found another egg.

Chailee Sterling - The Quad
(2 eggs)

Chailee practically squealed in delight when they Abbott found the egg. She jumped up and down on her toes. "You've got an eagle eye!" She remarked gleefully. "We are definitely passing, no doubts." She laughed and winked, enjoying the pun considering they were located inside of a university.

"The quad?" She pondered it for a second before nodding with a broad grin. "Sure! I would like to get back outside and the quad is a lot of space to look too! We'll need to work together."

She glanced at Finch and smiled. Come on, let's go get some fresh air!"

Sweeneys_Revenge

Abbott has a friend for life now, yo. XD

Same with Finch!

Gweneth Malley - The Student Lounge

Another miss. What the hell. "I am absolutley terrible at this game, that's for sure. I've not found a single egg yet." Ah well, she was here just to enjoy the hunt. At least that what she had to keep telling herself as she kept coming up empty. The repetitive hits to her competitive ego was beginning to sting.

Glancing at the hint sheet she randomly picked the one area that seemed to be inside. That was a good reason to choose it.

She wasted no time in heading to the Student Lounge. What she found was a collection of other people who has already made it this far. No one seemed to be finding anything yet though. Deciding to join in the hunt as well, Gwen began to look around in earnest for one of the elusive colored eggs.

Candice Shermon - heading to the Fountain

Candice honestly had a stupid idea of finding an egg in the science building.
She wasn't entirely sure why minus the reason that she wanted to brag to her classmates what they had missed out on. They had nagged and said the hunt was a 'child's game'. She still had nothing to show off for it. Having decided where she was going to go next, Candice chose her dog's favorite place, the Fountain.

Maybe there she would find her first egg.
