The girl chose her moment then to step away from Pala and the new arrival, Pael -she was dead sure she was going to mix up their names if they spent too much time together, though-, taking silence herself as she looked over the still growing group of younglings. Different races, different colors, different personalities, yet all here for -more or less- the same thing. A calming thought, really. Or at least enough to soften the grin to that of gentle appreciation.
Small ripples through the Force caused her to look up, blinking a few times before sending out a small wave of her own towards the source, more curious of the reason behind the hesitant pokes rather than cautious of the untrained younglings around her. Though once she stopped to think about it, none present seemed to have had previous training, and as such, she doubted they'd even notice her own outreaching, never mind the minor waves the other had created.
Her suspicions were silenced though when she found the source, realizing with a blink of alarm it was, in fact, a youngling that caused them. And no sooner had she dawned this fact did the Nagai step around the corner and reveal herself physically. The bi-color girl couldn't help but grin again at the fact the -currently- most venturing one with the Force was also -so it seemed- the most anti-social (if not flat-out shy). Chuckling, she sent out another wave, this time singularly directed at the young Nagai, waving to her simultaneously.
"Seems like you've got a good start for a kid. Or at least one with no prior training, anyways." The laughing comment arose as she made her way towards Aiden, still grinning though now more as a sign of greeting than amusement. Not to say she wasn't, though. It'd been a while since she saw a kid using the Force, even in such a small amount. Better than nothing.
"How long have you- Er, sorry, hold that thought, kiddo," she added hastily, turning on heel mid-step when she felt that age old 'disturbance in the Force' focused behind her. No sooner did she turn did she hear a young male 'Ooof" and immediately spotted the two downed boys. Wide eyes beheld a young Theelin -to which she gaped openly and without shame as she whispered his species' name in wonder and disbelief-, only to widen still upon realizing the other was a Zeltron. Just add a bit of horror and falling shoulders with an expression that looked like she was about to cry out countless curses to the Force and Fate and gods and whatever else might be cursing her existence, and you've got Kailey.
Rare species? Cool! Species that can feel emotions and cause emotions that cause situations one will heavily regret the next day? Priceless Horrible.
With a sighing mutter about hating her life -or something along those lines, anyways-, she made her way rather grudgingly towards the two boys, opening her mouth to question their condition after the fall... only to see the feline girl ask the question for her.
Hands loosely at hips, she raised an eyebrow at the two before questioning tiredly, "What happened? How'd you fall?" A few too many... er... "inappropriate" explanations came to mind almost before the words left her mouth, to which she couldn't help but send a glare towards the Zeltron and mentally blame him. Even if he hadn't done anything yet, she still hated him. Why? Because he was a -bleep-ing Zeltron. And they always equal trouble at some point or another. Her only question was when his time would come.
A sudden thought hit and she could have easily cursed all powers that be. Zeltron abilities, plus Force abilities, equals...? Nothing good, she could guess that much. Well... hopefully his new friend could keep him from doing something horrible. Or at least that was her current prayer, anyways.

Korvo himself lagged behing the other arivals even more, wandering into the hallway distractedly, craning his neck to try and get a better glimpse at the canopy above them and the things flickering through it with a young mans curiosity, picking at the short sleeve of his new clothing in a somewhat nervous manner. It was amazing, it was different, it wasn't much like home, and it was full of strange people and species, which for Korvo, was a novelty to end all novelties. Perhaps even more so than the reason he was here, but...not by much. He wasn't the first from his clan to step through temple doors, but the first Vos that had gone down this path had done so on an rather controvercial path that had veered between Sith and Jedi. The old kind of sith. All of which made him feel vaguely like he was here as some kind of 'appology' for the past, for the damage his predecessor had taken at the hands of his own relatives, via Telemetry. He'd been studdying the history so much it was small wonder he was busy keeping to himself, feeling a little gun shy of his own gift. Fortunately, unlike some of the others, he freed himself from the distraction of the canopy before walking into anyone, stoping near one of the pillars to watch the unfolding chaos of the other children there. ".....hi?"

Zain grinned as the Theelin returned his gesture. Mother had said he would be able to make friends easily. Guess she was right. ”Well,” the Zeltron began, chuckling at his newfound friend’s question. ”You can talk to the guys, too, if you like that sorta thing. Me? I prefer-” He stopped suddenly, turning to look at Tu with something of a sympathetic look. Mother had also said that the other children most likely wouldn’t be as “educated” as him. What to do, what to do? ”Oh. I guess we can talk to everyone this time.” Perhaps it was better that way, anyway. He couldn’t be having too much fun on his first day. Saving some for later and all that.
Arm still thrown over Tu’s shoulder, Zain was just about to the lead his friend to the other children when one approached them! Like Tu, he also didn’t know what species this one was. But, hey, she had a tail. Those were fun. Turning to look at the…whatever she was better, the Zeltron grinned even wider, if possible, at her question. First day and she already didn’t want the goods hurt! ”We’re fine, thanks,” he replied. But forget all that stuff, of course she wanted to know who those two fine-looking boys were! ”My name’s Zain, and this is my buddy Tu. He’s a Theelin. They’re rare, you know.”
He’d hardly had time to say that, when another female approached, this one a woman. My, my, they were just lining up to meet him, weren’t they? However, his thoughts changed abruptly when, as she drew even closer, he began to perceive her feelings. Oh, she wasn’t happy at all. That would never do, especially when she was around him! ”I just tripped into Tu here. But it’s alright, we’re friends now, see?” As if to prove his point, he took his free hand and pointed to Tu and his shoulders, where they still had their arms draped across each other.
Now to “fix” her feelings. Having failed to see the rather nasty grin that the woman had tossed him, Zain almost found it his responsibility to cheer her up. ”You seem stressed,” he started, peering up at the woman. ”I know of some ‘mazing ways to relieve stress. Want me to show you?” Okay, that move was probably a little too bold. But anything to get those negative emotions away!
His attention was briefly diverted from her as he heard the footsteps of someone else. Wow, this hall sure was busy today! ”Heey!” He waved to the new entrant, a boy with black hair and some kind of pretty gold stripy thing on his face. But he didn’t say anything further to the boy, as he had turned back to the stressed woman, awaiting her answer.

Zain didn't make much sense to Tu, he was saying strange things. Why would he just be interested in talking to the girls, and why was he acting so weird. He wasn't used to this sort of a personality, but he didn't think any less of him, if anything he was more intrigued as to why someone would act like that.
Then Tu's attention turned to the young Farghul. He'd heard about and seen pictures of Farghuls before but he had never met one before. He knew about most races, his 'father' had taught him well about some things, but he was still a naive young boy, like most of the younglings. "Yeah, what he said, the names Tu." He said with a soft smile to the girl, the boy seemed very charming, even if he himself didn't have a clue.
Next a woman came up to them, geez, so many people they were meeting today. Tu wasn't too used to so many people at once but didn't have troubles socializing. "Yeah, like what he said, but we're ok now miss, no reason to worry." He said again with a childish smile.
Another one? Oh but this one seemed to have just come in as well. Tu turned his attention to the kiffar boy who had just come in behind them. "Oh, hi there, there sure are a lot of people here aren't there?" He said still suprised himself.

Braith couldn't help but smile a little wider. This boy was certainly a character. She hadn't met someone as outgoing as him in quite a long time. Everyone she had associated with in Coruscant were very laid back and took things in stride. Then again, that's how you had to work on the planet city. There was too much that could be worried about. "It's nice to mee tyou both!" She replied jovially, the tip of her tail curving up sligthly as the end of it moved back and forth lazily. "I must admit, I've never heard of a Theelin and I know I haven't ever run into anyone looking anything like you. You on the other hand..." She looked at Zain with her head tilted to the side slightly. "I think I have run into someone like yourself but I don't know -what- you are."
Yes, Braith was beginning to relaz much more now that she had thrusted herself into a conversation. These boys were certainly nice too. "Oh, I am Braith by the way, a Farghul." Feeling more confident now, Braith didn't mind...too much...when the older woman joined them. She just peered up at Kailey before her attention was pulled to a black-haired boy coming up behind the group. "Hi! Would you care to join us?" She stepped to the side slightlyt o make room for the boy should he care to join their little grouping. Afterall, Braith knew what it was like to just hang outside of the fun. It wasn't a great feeling.

"Seems like you've got a good start for a kid. Or at least one with no prior training, anyways."
Aiden nodded dumbly in response to the young woman's remark. This human-like female was certainly much older than any of the other children present, causing Aiden to wonder if she was another Master at the Temple. Yet would a master act this casually towards the kids? Such a rank would, however, explain the woman's ability to sense Aiden's attempts to tap into the force. Seeing how she had not been significantly successful, she supposed her efforts could have caused some type of sensable disturbance. And a master would be more than able to perceive such a disturbance... Aiden felt her stomach tighten nervously at the thought of being in such immediate proximity to a Master of the Force.
"Thanks" She mumbled inaudibly, then wondered if a respectful bow would have been a more appropriate response. Before she had time to consider it, the woman turned hastily just as two more boys tumbled into the room-- literally. Aiden watched as the woman headed over to check up on the boys, her expression no longer bearing the same friendly smile.
Slightly intrigued by the young woman as well as the two newest arrivals, Aiden followed reluctantly. She hung back slightly in the background, yet close enough to see what was going on. Although she was quite curious, she was also unwilling to intrude where she was not directly invited.

Her gaze flickered up to the next new kid, blinking a bit as she wondered just how many kids she was going to have to deal with while here. Hopefully this strange mini-flood would be it for a while... unless this was just a trickle and the real flood would be coming soon. Drowning in younglings... well, at least they weren't teens yet.
Not that that thought helped settle her in any way, shape, or form. Note the paling flesh.
She only half-mindedly registered the first part of Zain and Tu's words, though still just enough to have some sort of social brain function going on and record what was going on. So they weren't hurt, that was good. And making new friends was always good, regardless of species or age. Regarding both warily she finally smiled a bit, though still on edge, as for a moment she began to think perhaps her judgments were perhaps too strong for this day and age. And then he made a comment a bit too outgoing for her current mood and social acceptance, color flooding her face almost instantly as she drew her self to full height -as short as it may be- and lifted her hand to unleash a rush of the Force at him in traditional "Force Push" fashion.
And all things considered, it wasn't a very strong Force Push, to which she automatically congratulated herself for self-control despite the flustering situation and her -as usual- lack of better judgment. But, quick on her feet as ever she grinned to him with color cooled as swiftly as it came and hands on hip as if in triumph. "No thanks. Random vents are all I need to de-stress. Training droids though... gotta love being able to crush things and send 'em flyin' without even touching them."
Perhaps not the best excuse for her actions she'd ever come up with in her life, but hey, if it worked, that's all she cared for.
Looking over the other four children around the little area, she grinned further to see the Nagai girl had followed her, if only a little, turning a bit to give her the thumbs up. It was only then she realized the small sound she'd heard before was the girl thanking her for her previous comment. "No prob. Just givin' credit where it's due. Way you seem to be goin' now, I don't doubt you'll be pullin' stunts like this in no time!" By stunts, she was referring to using the Force at free will like how she'd -perhaps rather poorly- done herself, though it never really crossed her mind one might not read the sentence as such.
"Hell, I don't doubt all of you will... if you stick to it and don't let the Master's catch you pullin' any stunt. Eeeeh... guess that's not the best advice to give kids, huh?" She rubbed the back of her head sheepishly once she realized what she said, gaze once again flickering between the gathered group. "Ah well, guess a part of learning is also when and how to properly use it... which might fall under the 'don't get caught' part... why am I here again?" was the added muffled grumble as she laughed a bit, shrugging. Some teacher she was, she'd be better teaching them how to rob or something with the Force, not help people... meaning she'd be better off Sithy? Oi... well, let's just hope some of the kids here have memory issues and can forget about this. Like, in the next five seconds.

For another moment, Zain turned his attention back to the feline-like girl, aghast at her last statement. She didn’t know what he was? But everyone loved Zeltrons! He would just have to teach her. ”I am a Zeltron,” he mused, looking at her with mock seriousness. ”The Zeltrons are an important part of the galactic society. Why, without us, I daresay the galaxy would hardly work at all!” Okay, perhaps that was a bit an exaggeration. But the galaxy would certainly be more boring without the pink-skinned people around to spice things up. In fact, there needed to be even more Zeltrons around! It should be a law, for everyone one boring person, this included all politicians and most other authority figures, there should be at least three Zeltrons to counteract their dullness. The galaxy would really be great then. ”It’s nice to meet you, too, Braith,” Zain finally said, removing himself from the thought of a Zeltron-filled galaxy.
He had just turned back to the look at the woman when Zain suddenly felt an unseen force pushing at him. The Zeltron stepped back a few steps before yielding to the push, plopping down softly onto the ground. Unfortunately, since his arm had still been across the Theelin’s shoulders, it meant that Tu should also fall to the ground. It was because of this reason that Zain subconsciously released a small amount of pheromones, just enough for the effects to be felt momentarily before fading away.
”What was that for,” he questioned, climbing to his feet and also helping Tu up if he required it. Instead of getting angry or upset, the Zeltron merely grinned at the woman, though he had yet to walk close to her again. ”It’s pretty obvious those droids aren’t working for you if you’ve got to do all that! I tell you, stress relieving of the touching kind is much better.” He realized he was most likely asking for another push to the floor, but she wouldn’t actually hurt him…right?
Listening to the woman as she spoke of their future Force powers, Zain couldn’t help but wonder if this was the type of person that would require the three Zeltrons to offset her. She’d been pretty fun to taunt, but that excitement had left. Hmm, though all of that Force-talk was slightly interesting. ”I’ll tell you what I’d like to do with the Force,” Zain “whispered” to Tu, though it was certainly said loud enough for the woman and other children to hear it. Oh well, Zeltrons were rarely subtle about such things.

Tu was taken completely off gaurd by the womans sudden force push that sent Zain toppling over and the intertwined Theelin as well. What possible reason could she have for having just done that? Tu hadn't said anything wrong, quite the contrary he was doing as he was told and keeping on his best behavior, and he also didn't pick up on the meaning of what Zain meant, he thought he was just being nice too. To Tu that was completely rude and uncalled for, and Tu doesn't let things go easily.
Tu quickly shot up to his feet and called after Kailey. "Hey old lady! What was that for?!" He shouted feeling they were done an injustice. "All we were doign was being nice, why'd you go and push us over?!" He questioned his inner fire growing, He was a well outspoken young boy, even if that wasn't necisarilly be a good thing at the moment.
At the Zeltrons 'whisper' Tu became even more confused, why was the Zeltron trying to share with him what he wanted to learn about the force at a time like this? Some crazy old lady just came up to them and knocked him over, Zain was confusing Tu more and more.

"Uh, sure." Korvo offered a flicker of a smile as he stepped forward, blinking with curiosity at Braiths flexible tail. Hearing about a species was one thing, meeting your first one was another. "Thats so wild..." He noted, before snapping back to attention. "I'm Korvo..." He offered. "Korvo Vos, nice to meet you Braith." He offered, based on what he'd overheard. He snorted slightly at Zain's comment, and had been about to point out that the Kiffar got along quite famously without Zeltron when the older woman tossed both the Zeltron and his freind onto their rear ends. Was that the force?? Was she a jedi? Maybe she was a Sith...he didn't think Jedi were supposed to be impatient enough to be bothered by things like that.... "...Wow." He boggled, looking between the woman, Tu and Zain. "....Can we learn to do that? Can you really crush droids? Will you crush a droid? I want to see!" It was like he'd suddenly come to life when he had a question at hand, tossing an armload full of them at the older woman with barely a moment to take a breath in between, followed by the final. "Are you a sith?" This last question with an mix of awe and trepidation.

Color seeped into her cheeks upon hearing Zain's words, taking a quick step back as if in fright. "Like hell. Physical stress relief's the best for me, though you're right, looks like the droids aren't doing it for me. Maybe I should step it up to flesh and blood beings, eh?" Her voice was tight, the threat about as obvious as her fanged forced grin and negative emotions willed at the Zeltron so he'd take a hint and back off. Ones his age did have the brain to pick up on such signals, right? Oh powers that be, please say yes, please.
That color she gained was quick to drain when that "whispered" line hit her ears, and while they weren't the intended subject, her hands still balled into fists. "That's not what the Force is here for you little bra- What did you just call me?" came the interrupting squeak from the would-be teen, eyes impossibly wide as she stared down at the Theelin who spoke the well-aimed insult. Be that his intent or not she had no idea, but still, the damage was done... and she was not at all one to take insults very well.
Her temper flared, nails bitting easily into her palms as her eye twitched. "Why?" she growled, eyes narrowed as blue fires roared within her irises. "Because brats like you need to learn their place, that's why! And I am not old, I'm eighteen so get that through that spiky head of yours and learn. Some. Damn. Respect!" Her left hand uncurled, and just like that the slim line of blood on her fingernails were the only sign of any wound as her genetic abilities took over and healed the highly minor injuries. A flick of her wrist again, and she held out her hand like before, but unlike her previous shove she put a great deal more Force behind it, shoving her arm forward as if pushing against an unseen wall. Still not the greatest extent of her power, but a good portion nonetheless, or at least a great deal stronger than that child's play version she used before.
Both hands returned in a normal relaxed position at her side, all wounds healed and blood soon wiped off her nails and slightly staining her skort, but whatever, that could be washed later. The young Kiffar's questions finally settled in her brain and she turned to him, still in a sour mood, but at least more calmed now that she released some of that building rage. "Yes you can learn, yes I can crush driods, and I can do that later once I find out where the Masters keep the training droids around here," she answered in a dulled monotone voice, a hint of seemingly annoyance edging her words. "And no, I'm not a bloody Sith! I may not look it, but I'm a Jedi. Sort of... was... ah whatever! Just call me a Jedi and be done with it, 'kay? Gray Jedi if you wanna get technical about it." A sort of chuckle through her nose came now, shaking her head lightly, smile having returned as she spoke.
"What about you though, huh kid? Jedi or Sith?" His question was promptly shot back, hands on hip as she not only awaited his answer, but the boys' highly probably retaliation against her second Force Push.

"Unf!" Let out Tu as he hit the ground from the womans force push. What was with her? And why was he getting pushed down so much today? Tu being the hot headed kid that he was wasn't about to get pushed around like that without him putting up a big fit, and probably getting himself in deeper trouble than he already was.
Tu jumped back to his feet and yelled after the woman in his outrage. "What is wrong with you?! You think just because you're stronger, you can do what ever you want? Besides, my dad could beat you up real easy!!" He shouted at her his blood still boiling completely feeling like he was done a great injustice.

Korvo's young face breifly took on an unusualy closed expression, perhaps some shadow of a more serious man he could become down the road, as he moved to offer Tu a hand. So the force was here instead so a woman like this could push people down because she didn't like what they said? "When Quinlan Vos acted the way you just did, they said he was a dark Jedi." He pointed out, as the seriousness caved in before an expression of a startled, offended, and now heel digging child. He clamped his jaw shut when asked as to his own alignment, stubborn and now unwilling to give answers back to someone like this. "....I don't like you."

2J-3P0, a modified protocol droid, shuffled down the stone hall towards the main hall. After consulting his holo-scan, he had determined that the largest concentration of lifeforms were residing in this approximate area. His orange eyes cast an orange glow around him and his metallic limbs scraped the floor as he walked along the stone floor. Oblivious to the coversation and activity in progress, He brusquely marched into the crowd until he reached the center. Now stopped, the protocol droid emitted a shrill, grinding sound that seemed to be the equivalent of clearing one's throat. The sudden, inorganic noise startled some of the less observant students, but managed to acquire the attention of the room's occupants none the less. "Excuse me, little masters... and Jedi Kailey" the droid began, his high pitched tone echoing off the walls. " I am 2J-3P0, you may call me TooJay. I am one of the protocol droids here at the temple. But Now, I have an important announcement!" The droids eyes brightened as his mechanical voice increased in volume. "The Masters, Char Langui and Sva'La have sent me to summon our newest arrivals. I am to lead them to the Council Room where the Masters are waiting." The droid paused for a moment to make sure he still retained the attention of his young audience. " You may please accompany me now... A map of the Temple has been programmed into your personal datapads should you somehow get lost along the way." The droid cocked his head with seeming impatience as he began to make his way back to the Council Room.
