Suka looked down at her when she apologized and shook his head. "Don't be sorry for things you can't help...makes the person you're apologizing to look bad" he spoke in the same volume that she had and looked up from at her and back to the path afterward. Once he found where they'd started from the first time he followed the path more quickly, having begun to notice things that looked familiar to him. As he continued to walk his mind continued to wonder about the way things were before he'd come here and the way things would be after she was back to a healthy state of being. He pushed these thoughts out of his head before he could really get started on thinking about them as the Dining hall came into sight. He walked at the same steady pace that he had been the whole time that he'd been carrying her starting from when the path began to look more familiar. Once he arrived at the doors of the Dining hall with her he opened the door with one hand and somehow fit the both of them in through it before the door closed...once the were in the first thing he did was find a place for her to sit down. He found a table and set her down on one of the seats, taking the seat beside her and waiting for what to do next. He did not know ho to go about getting her some water so he decided from here out she'd probably have to give him step by step instructions.

Karin blinked, ears perking as she heard his response. Her eyes opened slowly and she stared at him for a second. "...really?" she asked, and then fell silent as if thinking that over. She didn't really pay attention to what was going on as she lost herself in thought for a moment. Her hands slipped back into her ripped pocket, finding the X that'd fallen halfway out. She grabbed it in her hands and pulled it out, turning it over in her grasp. She looked up again only once they arrived at the building, and blinked again as he managed to get them inside. She began glancing around until she found herself sitting at a table. She stared at the surface for a moment before heaving a sigh and slumping forward, propping her head up with her hand. Then she glanced at Suka for a moment and to the counter where you go to ask for your food. She wondered if Suka remembered how to do it. Her hand moved down, reaching into a pants pocket and pulling out her student ID card. She offered it to Suka and then pointed at the machine. "Just... swipe this in there, and ask for... three bottles of water," she said quietly, hoping she wasn't offending him by telling him what to do. She'd go to it herself, since she felt odd asking him to, but she'd probably collapse after a couple steps.

Suka blinked a couple times looking from the card to the mchine and trying to memorize wat to get for her. After a few moments of looking back from one to the other though he gabbed the card and got up from where he sat going over to the machine and swiping her card like she had the other day, mumbling at it the order for three water bottles and when they dropped each time he grabbed them in one hand piling them in he other. He'd forgotten to get a tray so where they wouls have been set they dropped instead and that's why he had to catch them. He turned around and walked over to where Karin was sitting slowly, taking the water botles into his hands instead of piled under his arm. He set them neatly on the table in front of her, opening the first one slightly and settiing the other two perfectly horizontal to the one on the table. He sat in front of her this time instead of beside her and aited for her to start drinking. He handed her her card back by sliding it across the table with a single movement of his fingers. Once the card was slid he rested his head on the table waiting for her to start and finish drinking so they could leave...even on the inside this place felt awkward.

Karin's eyes followed him as he went, a small trace of amusement in them as she watched him catch the bottles and then return. Her head tiled very slightly as he arranged the bottles, starting to open one of them. She saw until he finally sat down, across from her this time, and then she pulled her attention away and back to the bottles he'd retrieved. "Thanks," she said quietly as she reached out, picking up the first and opening it the rest of the way before bringing it to her lips and tilting her head back. She closed her eyes as she began chugging it down rapidly, feeling a little odd for doing so, but not really caring. Within a matter of minutes it was empty, but she also felt strangely re-energized as well. She snatched up the second bottle next and began drinking it as well, a bit slower this time. She leaned further back the more empty it became, until she threatened to topple her chair backwards. But she somehow managed to stay balanced on the back legs of the chair and finished that bottle as well. Then she sat forward again, chair righting itself with a soft tap agains the ground. She wiped her sleeve across her mouth and grinned suddenly. "I feel better," she sighed contentedly as she picked up the third bottle and took a small, regular sized sip. Then she screwed the lid back on and held it in her hand, intending to carry it around with her for later. She smiled and Suka and leaned against the table, watching him for a second. "I think... I can walk now," she said, voice already returning to a normal volume, though she was still very tired. "Ready to go?"

"Sleep."
Lixue took a good look at Ai. She studied her surroundings. Her first day at Ria high was over and she felt strangely satisfied.
"Sleep sounds good." She commented with a nod and small smile.
She had a new friend, and a new surroundings.
Who knew what tommorow would hold?
Gathering her mountain of dishes and dropping them off at drop off area she turned to Ai. "Classes tommorow, darling, off to bed!"
Lix tugged Ai along, out of the dining hall and in the direction of the dorms. "I would love to see your skills after classes tommorow! Glass manipulation sounds really cool! Maybe we could stop by the training hall and spar!" Lix had definatly had too much icecream. "Can glass manipulation be used in combat? Of course it can! It can, right?"
This would be a long year.

Suka shrugged and stood up looking down at her. "I guess...but you said you're going to take a shower now didn't you?" he said this half questioningly and half matter-of-factly. If she was going to go straigt to the shower e was not going to follow her,they wuld be able to meet up after she'd gone and taken her shower...he would find something to do while he waited. He could wait in the courtyard which would land him directly under the dorm rooms if that was where she was going to take a shower. He had not acquired a dorm yet for he had not felt the need to if he was not going to use it for anything. The only things that a dorm woul bee filled with were things that he could never get used to or become accustomed to living his life around. A kitchen would be useless for he ate a strict diet of raw meat and a shower would just be a replacement for the natural bodies of water that he normally used for cleaning himself in. Air conditioning was something he couldn't stand and if he ended up with one of the nicest beds he'd end up sleeping on the floor from discomfort. He would never let himself become accustomed with the ways of the human daily life and that was ot a bad thing but a very good thing instead. If he kept his life going the way it was then he would never need to change for anything and he would not weaken with the years as some who adapt to the human way of life generally do. Suka would never do anything that would lead to his weakening or beoming vulnerable, without a good reason, for that went against the final words he'd spoken to Yuri before they seperated the first time. That was why if she needed to take a shower he would not follow her to the dorm rooms but instead wait in the fresh, natural temperature, air of the courtyard for her return.

Karin gazed up at him for a moment and the nodded. "I might... take a small nap too," she added quietly. She pushed her chair back and slowly got to her feet as well. It wasn't an instant recovery, but she did feel a lot better. Her wounds were healed and now she'd drank plenty of water and was holding even more for later. Once she took a shower and had that small nap, she'd be pretty normal again. She glanced at him for a second and then looked at the table. "Um, so I'll... see you in a bit, I guess?" she asked softly. She remembered a conversation they'd had a while ago, about how he didn't like being indoors and stuff, and there wasn't really a reason for him to come now that she could walk on her own once more. It'd be somewhat slow going, but she'd manage. She smiled at him and then turned to leave. "I'll find you soon," she nodded as she made her way to the exit, walking more slowly than normal, but not so bad that she'd never get anywhere.
[Edit-I guess I'm going to post in her dorm room now. ^^;]

Oni and Tetsuo took their seats across from Bukotsu as Sachi climbed into her seat next to him.
"So what's been going on since I last saw you, Bukotsu? How's Mr. Tadakatsu? Oni said as memories of the fight flashed through her. She shook the thought and began to eat her french fries. Tetsuo had already, almost literally, shoved his head into his plate. Oni could understand, seeing how he hadnt eaten for almost a day and a half since regaining his body.

"It'd been going alright, but I think I have a girlfriend now," Bukotsu said answering. Although saying this, he had no realization as to where she was.
"Not to mention meeting Sachi, and becoming an older brother figure to her and pretty much her guardian now," Bukotsu said as he took a gigiantic spoonful of his food as half his plate was gone now. Taking another spoonful and forkful his plate was cleaned off. Bukotsu seemed to have a look of disatisfaction on his face.
"Well...that was odd, it tasted a little smaller than last time," Bukotsu said now drinking down his milk. After drinking his wiped his mouth with the paper napkin to clean of his lips.
"Tsuda has been doing fine, but I thought he was going to meet us here..." Bukotsu said as he looked around. Wiping his mouth with a napkin and cleaning his lips now, he took a look over at Sachi to see if she was eating.

Tetsuo took a sip of his drink. "Think? C'mon, man. You either do or you don't. Tell us about her."Oni nodded in agreement as she put a forkful of food in her mouth. She was watching Sachi, who had already finished her french fries and had started to work on her waffles. It was so cute how she tried to cut them into pieces when her elbows were lower than the table.

"I really don't know what to call her now... I haven't really heard from her in a while," Bukotsu answered a bit.
"She's nice when you know her, but she's a little rough when you meet her...But I guess you will have to meet her to find out, She's kinda had some problems every now and then, but I guess she's off on her own and I'm single if she doesn't bother to come look for me, its almost been a month..She might have met some nice guy and ran off with him," Bukotsu said rather bluntly and optimistacally with a smile as he looked over at Sachi, "Need help?" Bukotsu smirked alittle.
Bukotsu already had some random knife pulled out. Although without her consent, Bukotsu had pulled out his army knife...which didn't seemed to look like a knife...more like a large butterfly blade that was several inches longer than a regular combat knife and was ready to cut the waffle, and possibly the plate, in half.

Oni finished her meal and was sipping her drink. "Aww, that's so cute how you take care of her, Bukotsu." I remember Tetsuo cut my waffles for me too... she thought to herself.
"Tough break, man. So what are you going to do now?" Tetsuo said after taking the last gulp of his drink. Sachi allowed Bukotsu to cut her waffles for her. She prepared herself by getting a hold of the syrup and prepared to pour it when he had finished.

She comes in with Midnight rubbing her eyes.She yawns and gets a glass,of orange juice,and some pancakes."Midnight why'd you have to get me up at 4:30am?"
"Because you were over sleeping."He sits on yop of the table, eating some fish Shino had gotten for him.
"How could I oversleep when I stayed up all night reading books,then wake up at 4:30am?"
He thinks for a minute."Well you did go to bed at 3:30am."He sits wondering about that."Well no matter you still overslept."
gonk "She shrugs,"How could you say that?"She trys to stay foccused,and continues to eat.She plays with her food for a minute,remembering what happened with Cid yesterday.She thinks to herself,Ill have to apologize for breaking down like that.She finally stops day dreaming and starts to eat.

"It's not like I'm a daddy or anything," sweatdrop Bukotsu said still holding the large knife-like butchering weapon in his hand. Some students walked by looking at him as if he were insane and quickly walked away.
"No clue..." Bukotsu said replying to Tetsuo's question. Bukotsu looked at the set of waffles and did what was a number of unseen chops with that machete looking knife of his. When he was done the waffles being cute Bukotsu had wiped his knife with a new napkin as he tried to get the waffle smell off of it.
Bukotsu smirked looking down at Sachi, "Eat it before it gets cold ok?" Bukotsu said patting her slightly on her head.

Sachi nodded to Bukotsu as she began to eat her waffles. She took three pieces on her fork and shoveled them into her mouth; her cheeks bulged, full of waffles and syrup. "Careful, Sachi. Don't choke." Oni was a little worried that the child would hurt herself imitating Bukotsu. It was exactly the way she was. She wanted to be exactly like Tetsuo. Seeing that the child would be alright, Oni sat back in her seat. "Tsuda should hurry if he wants to make it before we all finish here." Tetsuo said, looking at everyone's plates.
