(( sweatdrop forgot I was neko. I probably should have been able to hear that. Guess I have bad hearing ))
Rhm watched surprised as Tristelle dealt with the girls. He began to get up to help, but she seemed to be doing good and he relaxed again, but not completely. He put his chin on one hand and ate with the other. "Told you there was something strange about her," Pan said. "Oh relax, she's just helping someone out." "How'd she know there was a girl in trouble? She was under the table." Rhm groped for an answer, "She probably just heard it." "Then why didn't we?" "You know my ears aren't very good. Practically on a human level, even." Pan gave him an impatient look. Rhm sighed and said, "Well, so maybe she's a vampire. She wouldn't attack us." We've met vampires before, Rhm. Have we ever met any that didn't try and eat us? "No... but that hardly matters. We've met plenty of bad humans and plenty of good ones. It stands to reason that there are good vampires." Pan raised as much of an eyebrow as a ermine can. Rhm waved his hand dismissively. "Look, she's helping that girl, so she can't be bad. Besides, if (mind you, if) she is... bad we can defend ourselves pretty well." He said this last part just to ease Pan. Rhm had trouble thinking of anyone as bad, which had gotten him into trouble before. To change the subject he glanced at the clock. "Five minutes to curfew," he commented, tossing the remains of his dinner into the trash. He sat with his legs crossed and waited for Tristelle to finish her business.

Kuragari nodded pulling on her cloack. In a wisper she added to the blond, "sweat dreams." THen with a smirk grabbed the last of the raw meat and left to go to her room.
As she walked down the hall Kuragari kept her eyes on the floor. She was lucky that that girl had come over when she had. Kuragari knew she was losing her temper and didn't want to be expled for injuring and possibly killing someone. Then again she would have come back but as one of the demons she hated so much. With a smirk Kuragari though to herself, 'that curse will be good enough for now.'
Walking into her room Kuragari went staight to the fridge to grab a bottle of blood and then went into her room. Locking the door Kuragari walked over to Chi's cage and let her out. Dropping the raw meat onto a dresser nearby Kuragari collapsed onto her bed to drink her blood. "Chi today was a very interesting day.' In a sharp voice Chi said, "anyone I have to haunt." "Not yet just eat then night is coming on and we'll be able to sit outside for awhile before I have to go to bed. I do need to be up for classes." "Can't sleep all day huh." "Nope I guess not. Now drink your blood before it gets cold and begins to clot." Chi landed by her food and began eating.
(I wont be able to get back on till monday)

((KurimusonChishio, that's fine. I can fill you in when you get back if you have any questions.
Also, Surf_dude55 asked me to tell you guys that he's left because of a water polo tournament/college visit for his sister, and won't be getting back until Sunday. Until then, I'll be running things alone.
And, thank you all for wrapping it up so nicely by the end of the week. If anyone still has conversations going, that's fine, just please conclude them sometime today or tomorrow. See you in school~!))

Tristelle nodded as she watched the other vampire walk away, as if confirming something mentally. She looked back to her table, and saw Rhm was still there. She hurried back over to him and glanced at the clock. "Rhm, you didn't have to wait." She said with a small smile, dumping the remains of her familiars food in a trash can. "Some idiot asking for trouble on the first day..." She muttered angrily. She looked up to Rhm and shrugged, "Premonition is a gift of mine." She explained, hoping he wasn't onto her, but knowing it was highly unlikely. She looked at the clock again and cursed quietly. "We'd better get going."

"Aw, it was no big deal," Rhm said, waving his hand dismissively and smiling. He hopped up and Pan jumped on his shoulder. He began walking in the direction he was pretty sure his room was. Later he would try to memorize the scent of the room, though how he would tell it different the the millions of other scents around here, he didn't know.
Rhm stretched mightily and yawned. Pan mirrored the motion. "Bed sounds pretty good right now." He grinned. "The sooner we get to bed, the sooner we can get to class!"

Tristelle smiled and waved before heading off in the direction of her own room. Luckily, she'd remembered the number. She unlocked the door and stepped inside, greeted by the scent of another nonhuman. She didn't bother seeing who it was. They were probably already asleep. She looked around the dorm, before heading into her room.
The first thing she noticed was a mirror on the wall. Something she had missed earlier. She looked at her reflection for a brief moment. Her skin was so pale, she seemed to almost glow in the dark room. Her hair was still jet black from her past life, and was long and straight, passing her shoulders. Her face is what truly disgusted her. The biggest reminder of what she was. It was inhumanly perfect. Meant to lure innocent people towards her. She had large, emerald green eyes and high cheek bones, complimented by her pixie nose and full, rose colored lips. She looked away from the mirror and pulled it off the wall, sliding it under her bed. She lit a candle, forcing away her urge to just enjoy the dark. She walked over to her desk and pulled out her sketch pad and charcoal pencils, sitting down on her bed. She wasn't able to sleep. At all. She hadn't been able to since she had been transformed, as much as she wanted too. It would be a long night. She looked to Pippin and Nisa, cuddled together in a large basket, full of pillows and started to draw.

Rhm sleepily fluttered a hand goodbye in Tristelle's direction as she walked off. Now that he was ready for bed, he couldn't stop thinking about it. Pan was already nodding off curled around his neck. Rhm finally found himself in the main hall and from there remembered the way to his room. Key in... key out. He could see one of the doors closed and went quietly past it. As he walked past Jonas' room he noticed a note on the door. It read something about having to urgently leave and blah blah blah: Rhm didn't really care, he could barely keep his eye's open.
He shuffled into his room and shut the door with his tail. He barely kicked off his sandals and wrestled out of his shirt before flopping down on the bed. It was so good to be in a bed. Pan slowly flowed off his neck and onto his chest. He heard her sleepily think to him, "We actually have somewhere to sleep..." "I know," he replied, "And a friend, too." He expected Pan to argue this, but she kept quiet. "You think we can call this a home?" she said, her thoughts getting faint. Rhm laid a hand on her. "I don't know yet... maybe. What does a home feel like?" But to this Pan had no answer. They both drifted off into a deep dreamless sleep.
(( hey btw FerretFreak, what exactly are your familiars? are they dogs or something? ))

(( Oh yeah. There's a link where it says Pets/familiars. Just click on that. They're kind of like... Little rabbit demons lol. Nisa's the white one, and Pippin's the black. I didn't put it in the description, but they're about two feet tall each. ))

((If anyone has any questions, or would like something concrete set up on the main page, PM me and I will do the best I can. Remember that you control only your character. I control class changes, the lesson of the day, and any acting up in class will wind you in detention.
Other than that, welcome to your first day of class at Artemis Moon!))
The day dawned bright and early, bright rays of the sun filtering to light up the campus. The first day of classes could not have been anymore pleasant. Students rose with the sun, classes beginning at the rather healthy (compared to that of several Human Realm schools) hour of eight o'clock in the morning. All across campus, students filtered into the mess hall to eat, or else grabbed a quick bite in their dorm rooms. After that, they left for their respective first classes.
Those who were in Languages of Faerie first were greeted at the door of room 203 by a pleasant by rather stuffy-seeming fellow in a brown tweed jacket, name of Mr. Brown (rather unfortunate, if not appropriate--his name was well lived-up-to, as he wore his tweed jacket every day). His accent sounded almost English but for a strange slur of the vowels. Peeking out of his mousy hair was a pair of floppy brown ears. Once the students had settled themselves in the college-esque lecture hall, he began to write on the huge blackboard in front of the room. "There are many races within Faerie," he said, his voice a bit droning, "And as such, it is rather difficult to establish communication between some of them with only one language under your belt. It is my job to prepare you with a larger arsenal with which you may engage to fruitful dialogue with whomever you wish. Today, we will be learning simply about the major languages spoken in the realms of Faerie, their origins, and the speech patterns unique to each of them." He turned and faced the class. "Well. Shall we begin?"
The students who had chosen Horseback Riding as their first class trooped out to the west part of the grounds, where lay the stables and the ring lay. Standing beside the ring was a short, tomboyish brunette woman. Beneath her cropped mop of hair, slim pointed ears could be seen, and her voice, though rather to-the-point, was musical. "Okay." she said as greeting once her students were gathered around her. "We won't actually be riding today. I just want you to learn a bit about proper safety and the gear you'll need to handle. I'm Miss Silvermoon." she added as an afterthought. "Any questions?"
When the students who had selected Divination as their first class walked into room 304, they were greeted by a willowy woman with shimmering blue eyes, a long flow of indigo hair, and a pair of large, iridescent deep blue wings. "My greetings to you," she said, her voice like wisps of cloud, "I am the Lady Oceana, and I hope you will take a step into the future with me this class. Divination is an imperfect art, and -sadly, I must say- ill-suited for the classroom. But, I won't let that stop me from teaching you all I can, and I hope it does not stop you from trying your best." she walked back and forth across the front of the room, eyes bright, studying the students. "Today we will begin with something very basic and concrete to ground you--we will learn about the different method of divining the future. Some are, of course, born with the Sight, but even those who are not can still find a way. Now, let us begin..."
Those who had signed up for Swordplay this period went to their assigned location at the gym. Inside, they were greeted with a sight of mats in the center, lines marking off certain sections. On one wall was the practice armor, the other filled with weapons--the school blunted ones. Sharp weapons were kept locked up in the teacher's office. The teacher herself was a tall, whip-like redhead, jacket already on, helmet in one hand. "Right, that's it, come 'round here!" she called to the students, her voice clear and full of energy. "Today's pretty easy, so no worries there." she said. "I'm Ms. Delacroix, and this is Swordplay--not that you wouldn't notice that, seeing the small armory hanging over there." she jerked her hand to indicate the rack of weapons on the wall. "Unlike most fencing classes, I don't teach just one form of weapon--today's the day you pick out which one you would like to master. I've got a fair selection, and know a good bit about them all. So, come on, let's see what you like!"
Literature, held in room 107, was taught by a beautiful, dark-haired man. He looked to be in his early twenties, but his pale skin and fanged smile showed he probably had had many years to earn his credentials. Once the class had quieted, he spoke to them in a rich, sensual voice, thick with an exotic flavor. "Hello," he said, voice quiet but still carrying. "I am Mr. Wolfe, and I hope to enjoy a fulfilling year with you all. Literature is a noble subject, filled with infinite beauty and emotion in the written word. I have gathered books from many places, the best of which filled with such passion and fire--books about love, about life, about danger and betrayal and hope and destiny and death--these, these rare jewels shall I teach you. Dig deep, and you will find such a draught that the drinking of which shall fill you up with everything it is possible for man to feel."
The Magic class, occupying room 101, was taught by the same tall, imposing woman that had been handing out schedules. Immediately after the chimes signaling class to begin had sounded, she closed the door with a slam and strode to the front of the room, heels clicking sharply on the floor. "I'm Mrs. Morningstar." she said, voice still full of a no-nonsense air. "As you will well learn, magic is a dangerous thing. This class must follow my instructions to the letter, and each student must have a constant discipline at all times...lest there be consequences..." and the way she said consequences made the class shiver. "And I'm not talking about detention." she added, voice low and grim. "I'm talking about serious harm...and at its worst, death. One does not tamper in the arts lightly. But, if you have the strength and the sense, you can accomplish anything you desire. Pay attention closely, I need to go over the Rules of Magick, written by the Coven of the Red Moon--break one of these, and expulsion will be the least of your worries..."
((Like I said, if anyone has questions/comments, PM me. I'll be on in the morning tomorrow with Asako's post. Goodnight!))

Anne had woken up with sunrise, as she always did. It was a beautiful morning; being in the East wing, the sunrise was visible from her window, and she looked at it for a while. The yellow silk curtains she had put on the windows waved slightly with the breeze - she kept the window open all day and night. Grabbing her necessaire, she went for a quick cold shower. The living room was silent, as far as she could tell. Going back to her room, she chose her clothing carefuly; she was excited at the idea of starting classes that morning, and it showed in her gestures. Finally, she picked a low-waist boot-cut simple pair of jeans and a strapped turquoise-blue fitting top. Finishing the outfit, her casual 2-inch-high black sandals and a blue butterfly-shaped hair pin she used to hold some strands of her hair to the back of her head, so they wouldn't fall to her eyes. "Come on, Cassio, I'm ready, it's time to go!" She whispered to wake the large black cat, while reaching for her notebook. Sitting at the kitchnette, eating her usual breakfast - a big glass of milk, two apples and some crackers -, she waited for her roomates to show. She was sharing the first class with Asako, after all...

Aqua woke up, and looked at ember, sleeping soundly. she stretchted, and got changed into a pair of black kitten-heeled shoes, black trousers, and into her other black wings slits top, which had white and red flames embroidered. she walked to her kitchenette, noting that she still didn't have any roommates. ' Hey, I don't have any roommates! yes! an entire room to myself!' she looked at the clock. she quickly ate a slice of toast, and drink some apple juice. she quickly brushed her auburn hair, and looked in the mirror. ' hopefully nobody will notice the fact i have one gold and one red eye. stupid hair!' she thought, combing vigorously.' why won't it ever lie flat! she sighed, and set down the brush. looking at the clock she hurried off to her first class, Magic. ~ ~ ~ ~ Aqua sighed, looking at the teacher. ' Rules of Magick.. bah, i already had this drilled into me by my parents. well, foster parents. Mrs Morningstar indeed. isn't that some sort of flail?' she shook her head, realizing she wasn't paying any attention. ' i'd better pay attention, incase she goes over something i don't know yet.'

Kuragari rolled over and out of bed. She landed on the floor with a soft thud. "Stupid bed, I wish I had my old bed." Getting up Kuragari made sure CHi was in her cage before covering it and getting her things for the morning.
After a quick shower Kuragari grabbed a bottle of blood and heaed of to Swordplay class.
Ounce in class Kuragari listened to Ms. Delacroix speech then headed over to the weapons to grab her favorite one. Scannning the wall quicly Kuragari spotted it hanging at the top. Smirking Kuragari jumped lightly up to grab it.
The weapon was a simple black sheathed katana. Smiling Kuragari then headed over to the armor and quickly pulled the helmet over her hood. Making sure she could still see yet not get hit by light.

Rhm felt something on his nose. He scrunched his eyes tighter and mumbled incoherently. He felt another tickle on his nose, and still he tried to fight getting up. He rolled over on his side.
"YEOW!" Rhm yelled and jumped up as Pan bit his ear. Hard. He stood rubbing it, the last remnants of sleep gone. "Why'd you go and do that for!?" Pan looked mildly amused. "Because you're going to be late for your first day of school." Rhm looked blankly at her. Then understanding hit him. "Oh s**t!" he snatched his shirt off the floor stretched it on while slipping his feet into his sandals. He was pulling his shirt straight with his teeth and hopping on one foot getting the the thong part of the sandal between his toes. He felt his foot snag on a floorboard and he fell face first on the ground. He lay there with his shirt halfway on his face. Pan padded in front of him. "You done?" Rhm growled and rolled over, tugging the shirt fully down. He left his room running his hands through his hair, trying fruitlessly to make it organized. He snatched some bread off the counter and split it half. Pan flowed up to his shoulder and he gave her half of it. He barely remembered to grab his key before going out the door.
The halls were almost completely empty: classes had almost started. "We have Divination first. Room 304," Pan said. Rhm went up the stairs two at a time. Forth room and the left and he was in the room. He sat down just as the bell rang.
"Today we will begin with something very basic and concrete to ground you--we will learn about the different method of divining the future. Some are, of course, born with the Sight, but even those who are not can still find a way. Now, let us begin..."
Rhm was pretty sure he had Sight, and now he would find out.

Hearing sounds from the main part of the dorm, Tristelle glanced at the clock and her eyes widened. She had lost track of the drawing in her work. She looked over her latest drawing and smiled before placing it on the bed beside her and getting up. She walked over to the closet and pulled out an outfit easily, considering almost everything was black. She put on a pair of black skinny jeans and a form fitting tee to match. She quickly ran a comb through her hair and pulled it back into a half pony-tail, which was no easy task without her mirror. She purposely left some hair to fall over her face. By the time she was ready, the dorm had thankfully quieted. She would meet her roommates later. She grabbed her sweater and hurried out, making her way for the gym.
Before stepping inside the gym, Tristelle checked her schedule once more, just to be sure. She smiled as she looked saw the massive amounts of practice armour and weapons lining the wall. This would be fun. She listened as Ms. Delacroix introduced herself, and went over the typical introduction of the course.
"Unlike most fencing classes, I don't teach just one form of weapon--today's the day you pick out which one you would like to master. I've got a fair selection, and know a good bit about them all. So, come on, let's see what you like!"
Tristelle's eyes darted to the wall of weapons again. There were so many. Ranging from spears, to throwing daggers, to Katanas. She walked closer, hoping that maybe a better look would her her decide. A jet black spear caught her eye and she pulled it off the wall. She looked it over and nodded, confirming this was what she wanted. She walked over to the armoury section and pulled on a practice vest and watched the other students before taking a helmet off the racks as well.
