Vincent smiled at Niki and nodded. Yeah, fighting was way more fun than the normal book learning.

Jasmine seemed uninterested as the Matron left them with another man. She had yet to learn colors and had no idea which spot the man spoke of was red. When Manelin said he wanted to sit on red Jasmine frowned. Manelin in her eyes was being rather selfish. "But tha's not fwair!"

The teacher managed to somehow not groan aloud. "Now, now, 008. I told 007 to sit on the red. You are supposed to sit on the blue." Why did he teach these little ones? They were just a big headache.

Manelin couldn't help but pout as he ignored the other toddler. She didn't know what blue did to you like he did. Blue hated him. "But, but... I wike red!" He stuck out his lower lip. "Blue icky. Know wike blue! 'Oo drown in blue!" He shuddered. Icky large amounts of blue deep enough to drown out the red and orange and yellow... He couldn't help but immediately ask afterwards, "And 'oo is oh oh ate? Me Manelin!" He stated that last part proudly. He knew what his name was!

"Plants are boring. I bet all the classes are boring. I wonder if we stay together for all the classes or if we get seperated. It wouldn't make sense to seperated us but I really don't want to learn about plants!" Tali sighed and pushed around the few grains of rice left before picking them up with his fingers.

Selma shrugged and looked down, not wanting to make any of the other children upset with her differeing opinoin on the subject.
"I kinda like plants," she said softly and swung her feet under the table.
"If you don't think its plants, you must have some idea of what you think we're going to learn."

"I think..." Vincent racked his brain, he'd overheard it the other day and dismissed it as being insignificant, but maybe... "we might learn about elements..."
He was silent and sniffed at Tali's eating habits. He probably didn't notice. He scooped his last grains up on the two chopsticks and ate the small sticky ball quickly before it fell off.

The old man sighed. "Yes, you can drown in water. Water is blue." The man just gave up and motioned for the girl to sit on the blue instead. "You are 008. And your classmate here is 007." Why was it that the toddlers never knew their numbers? You would think the Matrons would pound something into their tiny heads before they came to him.

One of the older Matron's, Taliesin's 'special' matron slipped into the airy room. "Time for class again!" She sang out cheerfully. "Just leave your things there. Oh, this is soo exciting, your first full day of classes. Come on, come on!"
Tali jumped out his seat and ran to give the woman a hug. Beaming at him she swiped at some imaginary dirt on his face. "You're getting so big! And you, 003. A heartbreaker when you get older. Well, lets get going!"

Parmida blinked and raised her head to look at the older Matron. Things? She wasn't about to leave Dirt behind! So what else could she leave behind? She blinked, startled, when Tali jumped up and hugged the Matron. Was this his special Matron? They all had one. The first sentance sunk in then and she sighed quietly. More classes. Joy joy. --- Manelin grinned happily, glad that he wasn't to sit in the ucky blue stuff and sat down on the red spot. "Water ish blue. Blue ish water," he reminded himself. He made a face at the numbers. "Never called oo oo ate. Was all ways 'little Manelin'," he screwed up his face at that. "Me no little. Me just Manelin," he grumped. He wasn't little. He was big!

Vincent pushed his shaggy silver blond hair from out of his face. He hated haveing it trimmed and the Matron eventually gave up. Heartbreaker? Was that something a fighter does? Oww... He shook his head and climbed from the bench to followt he others out the room. Heartbreaker? Meh... it must be more of that strange ladies nonsense...at least she was nice... Even if she was nice to Tali too...

Niki slid down off her chair, her hair starting to fall out of her ponytail as usual. She clung to her bunny. That was going with her. They couldn't make her leave the bunny behind.

The Matron led them to a room higher up in the tower and ushered them in. A middle aged woman smiled at the children, from behind a desk. Along the wall behind her a large colored map hung. "Come in, and choose a desk! Time for your after-lunch lessons. Lets see, it's 001, 002, 003, 005 and 006 right?"

Parmida was ushered in with her agemates into a classroom high up in the tower. She looked around in awe at the place. It wasn't anything like the classroom she had first gone into as a toddler... She absently replied, "Yes..." to the question as she went searching for a seat, wandering around the desks and running a finger along them to see how smooth they were.

The bunny was held in Niki's left hand, trailing along behind her on the ground. She nodded at this new teacher and ran forward, plopping into one of the seats and patting the one next to it. "Tali!"
