~~Shion~ ~Kingdom Academy~ Gym~~


Speak of the devil and they shall appear right?

The sound of the soft tapping of feet, followed by a slight clinking of metal anounced the youths arrival as she passed through the double doors into the large open Gynasium.

Even if there was no class, Shion came here to train her body so she was in peak physical condition so the vast size no longer amazed her. She spotted the instructor Noti cleaning the weights and cross over towards the chamber lockers to disrob her armor.

It wasn't very practicel carrying some of her outer garments for a work out. So removing her chainmail, cape, and outer breast plate, Shion schanged into something more flexable and work ready for excorsise. When she returened veen her hair was tied back in a loose ponytail her sword at her side.

"Good day Professor Notu."

The bird took a small, shuddering breath, and then lifted a single wing, pointing up to the sky--or, more accurately, the top of the clock tower. If they squinted hard enough, they could see two figures sitting on the ledge, both of which seemed to wave down at them.

After a moment, it suddenly leapt up, shaking itself, and landed easily on its talons, hopping around and looking up at Morph curiously.

Notu looked up, spotting Shion and giving her a small nod before continuing to clean. She had been here enough times on her own that...well, really he didn't have to direct her. Though he'd still spot her if she asked for it, or talk to her or the such. He wasn't anti-social, after all.

"Ah, yes, Ms. Gale. Wonderful to have you with us again." She had looked up at the girl, before returning her gaze to her maps, pulling out a compass and pencil and adding notes and lines to it.

"Um... yes," Mali stated as he wiped his face, mumbling in reply, "Have you never had pancakes before? Do you want so-?"

"We've known each other for awhile," the lion licked syrup off his teeth as he cut off his partner, "He's a wimp most of the time, but he's not too bad. Guess you could say we're friends. More like brothers at this point though."

"We met when we were pretty young..." the boy reminiced quietly, "I'd just lost my home, and Kovu, he'd... well, that's his story to tell... but we've practically grown up together. "

“Captain Amelia,-“she visibly paused suddenly realizing there was indeed a desk there again, companying the copious amounts of maps situated properly for her classes. Turning away from the weighs she had first gone towards she approached the other woman surveying the maps.
“-back to the gymnasium I see.” she commented, looking over the interesting sheets herself a moment.
The captain never was a frivolous woman, or at least she didn't strike her as someone. She was all about practicality. So it was interesting seeing the woman at work.
Eventually she went back to the equipment she selected a pair of wrap around weights and fastened them to her ankles and wrists.
“Notu- could you check my form for me?” she asked, and began to do her stretches. Shion would practice her style of combat through a method of parkouring.

(( Cloe / Kingdom Academy/ Dining Hall))

“Ohhh?” The girl obviously was intrigued by the pairs story. “ A human and a Lion brothers?” the girls tone didn't sound skeptical but rather admirable of them.
“He doesn't look very wimpy to me.” Cloe said looking more intently at Zuben before crawling up onto the table itself in order to sit there cross legged. Clearly she had no semblance of proper table manners.
“You said you lost you’re home?”

{Caleb .:. Land of Departure .:. Dorm Halls}

Milo was rambling again. As much as Caleb loved listening to his friend go on and on about dead languages, sometimes, when Milo got excited, he forgot to slow down enough for people to understand him. Caleb didn't mind; he'd gotten used to Milo's sometimes hyper-accelerated speech over the years. Right now the linguist was babbling something about Gaelic influences on modern slang. Caleb decided to interrupt him long enough for his friend to get some oxygen.

"Looking forward to the new school year, Milo?" he asked during one of Milo's very infrequent pauses.

"Oh, absolutely, I was thinking we could squeeze in a few lessons on that discovery we made on our trip to Athens this year." And Milo was off again, causing Caleb to chuckle.

As the duo rounded a corner, they almost ran head-first into a boy and a talking rooster who seemed to be rather in a hurry. Caleb hastily grabbed Milo by his shirt collar and dragged him out of the way.

"Ho there!" Caleb exclaimed jovially. "Late for breakfast, boys?"

The male cocked his head at the bird, following the 'point' to where Mizu and Zikomo were looking at the top of the clock tower. He put a hand to his forehead to block out extra light, staring up at the...was it two people up there?

"...Kinda theatrical, don't ya think? Two people just randomly standing up there? Hrm...I wonder if they went up their to confess their love? I heard some people do that there, best view of the town after all." He kept watching, curious to see if the two figures were going to do anything beyond stand there.
