Luke looked up at the ceiling."I dunno."He looked back at Aerin as he was spoken to, glancing over at the wall as it opened to reveal the dark room."ACR?"He slid off the bench and moved torwards the room, stopping in the doorway? to look it over.

Aerin nodded pleasantly. "Yup. Accelerated Convalescence Room! You basically get put to sleep, and then your cells speed up a bit to make your healing go faster. You've only got minor wounds, so you'll only be in for about an hour. It'll seem like nothing, I promise!" He nodded, and waited for Luke to pass through the door. He had the door shut, and the transmute to glass. He waved at Luke, and messaged him via feed. "Just go ahead and lie down, kiddo~"

Luke quirked a brow and glanced back as he stepped through the door way. Looks more like solitary confinement to me. He moved torward the bed and sat down, looking over at the now glass door."A'ight, so I just sleep, fun."He layed down, poking his throat as he did.He stared up at the ceiling for a few second before closing his eyes, soon falling asleep.
After about an hour he awoke, just laying there for a few moment before opening his eyes.He sat up and yawned, wondeing if it had worked, this..ACR thing.

Aerin grinned and helped Luke out of the chamber, quickly eying him over. "All healed. You'll be sore in those areas for a while, so don't stress them too much."
He waved to Luke as he stumbled out, and went back to reading his magazine, and keeping an eye on Clerise's vitals.

[New RP]
After getting himself some breakfast, Akira had decided that it may be best to visit the infirmary. His dreams, along with the lingering guilt about the fight, had gotten to him and he wanted to know what was happening.
He made his way to the infirmary, guided by his map, and went through the door, looking around at the... girly-ness of it.
"Uhm. Hello?"

Aerin stopped his busying about, cleaning even though the infirmary was already more sterile than a clean room. When he heard the small and vaguely meek voice call, his ears twitched and he turned to face the boy. "Why hello there,sweetie! And who would you be?" he looked him over, and even though he looked a little under his weight class, he was otherwise fine. "And what can I do for you today, little one?" he asked pleasantly.

Akira blinked, that was a man, right? He shook his head, and stepped up, already playing with his sleeves, his tail already frantically swishing.
"Uhm, I'm Akira... I just wanted to..." He couldn't find the words, not the exact ones he was looking for, he sighed.
"I got into a fight with a boy and something happened, and I was hurting him. I feel really bad, and I think there's something wrong with me." He took a breath, his nerves made talk a little faster.
"And I saw something. And I had a weird dream." He looked at the floor, as he resisted the temptation to run away and hide. He wasn't having a confident day, as it turned out.

Aerin tut tutted. "So you're the boy that attacked zero-eight today." He tapped a finger against his chin as he checked Akira's file. "Oh. You're approaching your points of change, dear, that's all." He smiled, and motioned to the various benches. "Take a seat, and I'll just take a peek at what's going on in that little head of yours." Aerin smiled reassuringly as he spoke, and waited.

"It wasn't an attack.. he started it!" Akira frowned, his ears showing defeat as they fell limp at the sides of his head. He sighed and did as instructed, walking over to a seat, and plonking onto it with a wince.
He moved his tail, and sat down again.
"Points of change? What's that?"

Aerin raised an eyebrow. "Well now, that isn't what he told me! Isn't he the dishonest one!" As Aerin tested for Akira's emotions, he felt a shock wave of regret and guilt and sadness from Akira, and nearly had to sit down. This boy was carrying enough baggage for a three way trip to the moons. Both of them.
Aerin followed, and a seat rose from the ground in front of Akira's seat. "It just means you've almost hit the amount of insanity you can take for your age, and then we'll hibernate you in the accelerated convalesence chamber for a week or so, and you'll pop out a few years older." He said all this as if it were nothing, and he were chatting about the weather. "Now little one, let me inside that head of yours..." Aerin reached up, and placed his white fingers against Akira's temples. With a burst of his empathy and a burst of power from his feed, he was in.
"...Hm. Yes. You'll be like Clerise soon," Aerin said finally, and deciding to leave out Clerise's...additions, "and be in what we call the "Eccentric" stage, which is approximately 25% insanity." He pat his head. "You'll be called down here soon, for time in the chamber."

"Insanity? I'm going to go insane?" He blinked. Well that was somewhat of a shock, although he somehow already figured that out.
He watched as Aerin went to work, feeling slight tugs here and there. His hand absent-mindedly fiddling with his new necklace, listening as the teeth and bones clicked together. He still wondered if Lines gave it to him.
Had to be him, it couldn't just pop around my neck, could it?
His tail flicked.

Aerin nodded. "Of course you are. Everyone here will, or they'll become an obnoxious supergenius. Either way, the Academy is where you all come to lose yourselves, not find yourselves." Aerin stood, and dusted off his miniskirt. "Darling, I think I should tell you something." He paced over to his desk, and started busying himself. "You're bonded, little one. Bonded to a death god." He pursed his lips, and came back to Akira empty handed. "Deities...sometimes use bonds, mental connections, with humans so they can have a physical connection to this world, so they can walk upon it and inflect themselves upon it. With you, it happens to be Anubis."

Another blink, and Akira's face went pale...er. "What?" A death god? Anubis? I'm bonded to a god of death!? That's not true. It can't be.
"I... I don't believe you. How can that be true? That... It's not right!" His eyes were already filled with tears. It was likely he was misunderstanding.
"I don't want to turn into a thing that kills people!" He sniffed, a sob escaping.

Aerin blinked, suddenly aware, again, that he was talking to just a little kid. "Oops." he muttered, and went over and gave Akira a big hug. "Oh, don't worry dear! You're not going to kill people!" he laughed, and hugged him again.
"You are simply...you will be the one who helps respect the dead, who gives the death the order they deserve after their death, and after they've been guided to their underworld." He wrapped his arms tighter around the wracking form, and hummed lowly, as he moved to sit beside Akira on the bench and pet his hair.
"This means you will be great, to be chosen by a deity. You have caught their eye out of all the other possible people. Anubis chose you, because you know the pain of one who goes on after the death of theirs. You are not the reaper, you are the finaliser, you will wrap up loose ends on the material plane as they have already gone through their life passage to the life-after-life."

Akira sniffled, feeling himself in warmth as Aerin hugged him, comforting the child.
"I'm not gonna turn into a killer?" He wiped his nose, thinking, "Is that what I saw in the bathroom, when we were fighting?"
He wasn't sure what all that meant, nor would he fully understand until he was older. Right then, was just his moment to accept it.
