Welcome to Gaia! ::

Shehk had apparently noticed that someone was paying attention to her (two someones, actually), ears perking ever so slightly as she looked to Jack, her tail slightly lifting at the very tip as though given some strange..small.. bit of confidence. One glance from Hellma would have utterly destroyed that, however.

'Yeah I think so...' she seemed to answer, though another glance at Hellma made her sit up just a bit straighter before she finally got up out of her chair to go after her shadow.... her shadow...wait, how did she know which one was hers? It was sort of a strange sensation, like she just.. knew. Then again, there weren't very many canine-shadows to be had around there (as without her form to tie to, the shadow had gone back to what it found more 'natural').. or, something canine-esque about it.

Not really looking like a wolf, but seeming like it was going 'BARKBARKBARK' when another shadow touched it. Who's was tha-...

the look on Shehk's face was something akin to horrified.

Why was Sin having her shadow hug hers??????

She would have kicked Nukpana in the knee if his had tri-

.....

And on the note of 'BARKBARKBARK', it seemed that Shehk's shadow had found Jack's and was currently, like any good canine, seeing it it would play. Or let itself get chased. OH JOY.

"s-Stop that!" she frowned at it, but the shadow, seeming like it was having too much fun, just looked at her, wagged it's tail, and then went back to catharassment.

Rain frowned. She did not like Hellma Shox. It had taken her so long to get the smell of feces out of her hair and clothes after detention. She had cleaned more than she had ever cleaned before too, all for what? To lose consciousness in the end. Though, on the other hand, it did allow for her to meet some students and the battle was fun even if the bleach burned her eyes a little. Still, it was the headmistress that had put them in detention in the first place. All for posting on a board, looking for romance.

She was full of anger and insults. She must truly be a miserable monster! She wouldn't mind taking a bite of Hellma Shox's brains. Of course, the older monster's hair would probably bite her first and if she managed to succeed, the brains would probably taste as foul as the monster's mood.

She was a little sad to see that G was too big for the normal sized chairs so ended up taking an entire two person table to himself. It would have been nice to sit with him. She settled for the next best thing and sat at a table directly behind him.

This made it impossible for her to see most of the class and more importantly, the teacher. Did that mean that Miss Shox would also have trouble seeing her? Maybe it was the best seat in the classroom. G was like a protective shield. A big green protective shield.

Emily was passing out the candy. She never spoke to the reaper but she knew of her well enough. In fact, she would have to keep her boobs away from the other ghoul, that's for sure. Emily had a talent for ripping off clothes when you least expect it, something she had witnessed firsthand.

Rain grabbed three pieces of candy and quickly opened one to pop in her mouth. She didn't like candy much, unless it happened to be gummi bats and this was no exception. For some reason, it reminded her of fresh laundry. Boring, bland and bleh.

She didn't feel much from the candy and she figured it was because of her race. Her shadow reacted quickly though and once free, darted up the nearest wall and to the ceiling! Rain found herself growing jealous of her own shadow. She wanted to be up there too! What a wonderful trick! What would happen if she ate the other two pieces of candy as well? No.. no, she better not. The headmistress would probably grow angry and make her clean another bathroom.

She quietly watched her shadow dart about. It seemed the other shadows were interacting together and her own was up there all alone. Was it a reflection of herself? No, of course not. Her shadow actually looked happy, moving about quickly. It was hard to keep track of it. She wondered if it enjoyed being free.

"SAVE YOURSELF, SHADOW RAIN!" she blurted out, cheering her shadow on. She waited for it to make its escape.

It seemed to ignore her.

Once more, Julian was as far from the teacher as possible. Especially since it was the headmistress. She was terrifying. He watched with his head low on his desk as she called the Reaper up to the front of the class. He couldn't hide his flinch when Professor Shox barked at them, his feathers quivering in fear.

And yet despite all of that, he wasn't afraid of detaching his shadow. He was just terrified of Professor Shox.

So when Emily came around, handing out the candies that would set his shadow free, so to speak, he reached one hand out and took the offered candies, looking them over for a moment. They really didn't look any special at all, except for maybe the wrapper. He jotted down a note that he shouldn't use them too often, just to make sure. That seemed like something he would forget if he didn't.
That done, he unwrapped the first one and popped it into his mouth.

It set a tingling all over him and the next thing he knew, his shadow was creeping away from him. He frowned sternly at it and it paused for a moment, as if considering stopping and doing what he said.
Whether it was sincere or just screwing with him, it wasn't more than a moment before it shot over to the wall to make faces at him. He stood up and walked over to Tahki's side, crossing his arms.

"N-not c-cool..." His shadow just proceeded to nudge the gryphon's and looked as if it laughed for a moment before going back to making faces and rude gestures and other annoying things.

Retrospectively, the shadow had probably just been screwing with him...

One of Israfel's older sisters had told him of Hellma Shox. She told him of the princess corner, mini edition. She told him of shadow magic and how he "BETTER TAKE THAT CLASS, JACK HELP YOU IF YOU DO NOT". Sirens didn't typically go directly into human contact, and, they also were not silent fliers or very sneaky beings. Shadow magic was one way that they could go unseen at night to and from the Bermuda portal for hunts.
So by his sister's advice, Israfel attended the class.

So far, he felt his earwings fall back flat, his back wings bend to hide in hair, and his entire frame so stone cold frozen. Israfel didn't like being yelled at. It was like karaoke night on the island all over again. Then slowly, he was relaxing. Eyes darting to the shadows that nor moved about, free of their three dementional counterparts. As the bowl was passed to him he took his candy, unwrapped and swallowed.

It felt like his nest mates from back home had thrown him into the ice cold sea water. Feathers poofed out from the initial cold sensation then relaxed. He felt- different. It was unlike anything he ever knew before. Looking down, he noticed why.
His shadow was missing. Eyes scanned around, until he found his counterpart, perched above near the ceiling, doing it's best to avoid the animal like shadows in the room.
Israfel worried if shadows couldn't eat other shadows. After all, he had no idea what problems that might bring up.
It worried him, especially when he noticed a cat and dog like shadow. And the shadow of G.

Israfel lifted his hand, fearing for his shadow's safety.

Alcyone stared wide eyed as she watched all of the different shadows interact and she had no idea what she was supposed to be doing to control it. Looking up, she noticed that Sin's shadow was holding out its hand towards hers? Her shadow returned the greeting with a hearty handshake and then her shadow disappeared somewhere. The real Alcie shook hands with Sin and responded, "Nice to meet you and your shadow, Sin. I'm Alcyone but you can call me Alcie if you want." Smiling slightly, Alcyone had turned her attention away just for a second and now she had no idea where her shadow was.

Her shadow was rapidly moving throughout the class interacting with all of the different shadows. Alcie's shadow had approached Mai's shadow and was prodding the unmoving shadow rapidly. Oh god. "Sorry!" She called out to the ghost hoping that her own shadow would stay put for once as she went over to see if she could take control of it.

More and more students were having their shadows run off as the candies were passed out. The room was now filled with shadows no longer under their owners control. Tahki was not different. Her shadow still was playing keep away from her. The gryphon wasn't so sure how much more she could take.

The gryphon was worn out from running around after her shadow so she took a seat to catch her breath. She was glad she did too. The room was CHAOS. Complete chaos. Honestly, it was fun to watch. She noticed Daisuke and Julian in the middle of the chaos and gave them both a friendly wave. It calmed her nerves some to see familiar faces.

Julians shadow seemed to be chilling with hers. Tahki leaned forward and folded he arms on the desk. Her chin soon joined her arms on the desk as she rested and watched everything going on.

"This is crazy," The gryphon whispered and watched her shadow transform into a full on gryphon form. It playfully pawed at Julians shadow almost in attempt to get it to play. Strange.

Tahki looked up to see a shadow that had made its way to the ceiling. It belonged to an undead girl who was cheering. Tahki couldn't help but watch for a moment before returning to watching her own shadow attempt to play with Julians.

Julian's shadow took the hint and melted into a owl shape of similar size to Tahki's shadow and it whapped her shadow once before fleeing across the classroom walls, though making sure to dodge around the giant's shadow.

Julian caught the wave from Tahki and waved back with a smile of his own. Giving another frowning glance at his shadow, he moved to an empty desk near her. There was too much going on to try running about the classroom. The last thing he wanted was that huge monster to step on his delicate feet if the monster decided to get up to chase his shadow like the rest of the class.

So the Harbinger sat down and set his head on his crossed arms on the desktop, staring intently at his shadow as he tried to "focus his will" on getting the shadow to simply hold still. There were a couple of moments where the shadow seemed to skip, like a skipping TV, but that was it. It made him feel a bit better about the assignment, but every time his shadow skipped, it was barely noticeable. So whether it was the shadow messing with him again or he actually had some kind of hold on it, he wasn't sure.

"At least our sh-shadows are having f-fun," he said with a little sigh and turned his head to give Tahki a little smile.
