Welcome to Gaia! ::

Hmm? Jiejie... yea. What'sit to ya? Levi's eyes narrowed , ready for some sort of witty retort. She knew the name had significance to the baku so there was never a questioning of being called by it. If it made Xiu happy, she could be call her a boot and it wouldn't matter. But there was nothing; West simply moved along to his usual competitiveness. Just the way Levi liked it. Oh- I can put yer name in'a cup fer ya, bird demo- Before they could race to sign up, suddenly Bul happened.

Keep your friends close... ...and your competition closer.

Aye, Bul! The tatzel had grouped with West and Bul before in battle and had positive results. These were clearly two boils she would have to give it her all with which was perfect for bettering herself at battle.

She generally knew how they fought and what they were capable of. Adding an outside force would put them all in a fighting spirit and that was something for her to look forward to. Well, don't see why not! Her own tail began to sway in response to Bul's. If'tough's what'cha want, I got it right 'ere. Grinning, she pointed a thumb towards her chest proudly before raising a brow at West. Would he cower out of Bul's proposal? Her eyes suggested it if not just to poke fun at him. I'm good ta'go.

West meant to chuckle in response to Bul's sudden appearance and suggestion, but it came out sounding more like a snort. Still, he was thankful for the distraction the other boil had provided. "Yeah, man. Sure," West replied, leveling a smirk at the tatzel. He supposed that answered his question as well. Neither of them had any other teammates in mind.

"Who else?" he asked. "Assumin' y'want anyone." Arel had said three to five students to a team, but West didn't know if fewer meat shields teammates would be better in this case. He doubted Levi or Bul did either. They had only just heard about this whole thing, after all.

And a leader. Who the Jack was going to lead them?

Bul's eyes wavered to West, not surprised that Levi was ready from the get-go.

"I'd say the three of us.. maybe get another second year and we could win the damn thing, doncha think?" he asked with a grin. Immediately he thought of his butt buddy Demi. Hey, the four of them were all second years, maybe even all close enough to third year to boot. And well... they all had tails too, fancy that.

"We would whip it with our ta-" suddenly the monster boil grew a wicked grin. Oh yes. The puns were absolutely magnificent here.

Ulmuka had only managed to catch the announcement. He'd slipped into the assembly with all of the other late arrivals, not even bothering to find a seat. He was definitely interested in what the horsemen had to say (but mostly wondered who did their tailoring).

The strix was not much for proving himself or participating in massive physical activity, but he did need to show his father that he was indeed progressing and learning at this school. He needed to show him that going to Amityville, despite the problems, was not a waste of time. The strix then began to worry because he didn't have an extensive friends group and he wasn't sure that he was close with any higher grade students.

His teeth clacked as he contemplated his prospects.

Whisper was so right. She was so. right. Natalia would about die if she had to wake up to a bunch of crying students again. No...She would definitely be going on this trip to deal with these trials...or whatever. And knowing her ghoulfriend would be there, and was more than WILLING to be there, sort of turned her on to the whole ordeal.

And in general.

"Sounds hot." Natalia hiked a brow suggestively, nudging at her ghoulfriend's side until the demon took her hand and placed a kiss upon it. "I will do the same then, until later."

The monster made it obvious that she was watching Whisper's a** as she walked away, but soon turned and made her exit just as well. It was time to search!
