Fiore laughed "no problem" he quickly fliped through the files "i can read most of it and the rest we can either guess or simply make up" he looked up at Kai "i think we can do this, all i have to do is pull a few strings, i can call my friend tomorow and with luck, they all can get into school for next semester"

TableTopWatch Shin was right, their animal forms were much too different...of course he liked his human form better...
He wasn't exactly sure what a poacher was, but by the comments that followed Haro assumed it wasn't something or someone good. He would never have to worry about such a person though, because lovebirds were a common enough bird and birds in geneal, even if they were rare were not usually killed for their feathers or any other such atrocities.
"I...guess this form isn't so bad," the teen murmured, after all he had met Shin whereas he wouldn't have, "It's just...hard getting used to," he added with a delicate smile before taking a small bite of the fresh bread.

"I'm glad I decided to trust you.I think you guys might just be able to help us get these kids to grow up right.I hope this all works and they can have real lives someday." Kai said, giving Fiore a large hug, and blushing profusely when he let go."Uhm, sorry about that.I got carried away." the other boys laughed at him and Kaho and Kohaku both kissed him lightly on his cheeks, causing him to blush deeper.

Slender, pale fingers grasped the glass, rotating slowly and sending monochromatic kaleidoscope patters across the walls, then ceiling, then floor of the tiny coffeshop. Large, azure eyes gazed intently at the clear liquid within the cup, and their owner rather liking (in spite of himself) the pretty features reflected therein.
The place was moderately full, businessmen and housewives alike conversing and sharing their opinions about the weather, sports, local gossip, and the like. The man, sitting by himself at a table by one of the two large picture windows, didn't mind. He rather liked the conversations, and would listen in for moments at a time, feeling temporarily included in their banter.
This soon lost it's interest, however, and he lifted the glass to his lips, finally turning his visual attention to the room itself, and took a sip, sighing contentedly as he felt the coolness of it slide down his throat.
The door opened, and two men walked in, dressed to intimidate with fine suits and greased hair, clearly brokers of some kind... one of the men paused, turning on his heel just inside the doorway to catch the door itself and hold it open for a small flock of young ladies.
Brokers and Schoolgirls alike eyed him with interest, albeit the feeling behind the two stares were very very different. One, a look of intense hatred. This young man, slender and fair, was clearly not of his trade, and was clearly not a permanent resident. The man, as he sipped at his water, could almost hear the brokers' thoughts.
'Damnable artists... sitting in our coffeeshop... drinking our water... makes me sick, I tell you...'
From across the room, however, the sound of giggling, which, in this tiny shop, carried well, met his ears. He looked sidelong, his eyes hidden behind the fall of golden hair that, as if of it's ownb accord, refused to stay out of his face. What he saw, much to his amusement, was a group of girls, snacking on cookies and scones, and sipping at their lattes. The girls' collective attention, however, was most decidedly on their breakfast. Excited whispers were heard as follows.
"Oo... he's soooo cute.... I should go get his number...."
"You? He's way out of your league... he must be over twenty."
"Oh, yeah? Well if you're so confident, why don't you go do it?"
"Me?"
"Yeah!"
Followed by a chorus of yeah, go do it, I dare you, and the like. A small grin spread across the blonde man's face, and he looked back to his water, taking another sip, and utilizing a strategic toss of his head to get both his hair out of his eyes and more attention.
Hesitantly, one of the girls stood, her intent clear, but the look on her face showing nothing but girlish terror. However, before he could see any more, his attention was drawn to the table behind him. A hushed conversation was being held between the two brokers, who clearly thought he couldn't hear them. In truth, he could only pick out bits and pieces of the conversation.... but that was enough.
What he heard, was something like:
"Can you see it... something strange..."
"Of course I can..."
-Enter unintelligible muttering-
"Ah. I see...."
-Yet more muttering-
The man, although not looking at the two men, could feel their eyes on his back, and the hair on the back of his neck lifted slightly. Perhaps he was a bit obvious... his stance, demeanor, and even look was odd... all of which seemed completely unknown to the pack of young ladies.
Then, just as the girl approached the table, the young man stood, and with a subdued
"Excuse me..."
Picked up his bag, downed the rest of his water, and left the tiny coffeeshop for good.
((I do hope that was a suitable introductory post...))

Keiji stumbled out of his dark house and into the sunlight. He'd just barely escaped his younger sister and she's probably be out looking for him once she realised he'd gone out. He walked a few steps, temporarily blinded by the brightness of the sun, and immidiately stumbled into a man with bright blond hair, the shiny yellow-white reflection only paining his eyes more. He bounced back off the other, and considerably taller and larger, man and fell on his butt. "Owwww.... S-Sorry 'bout that...."

The blonde's eyes widened, and he immidiately stooped to try and help the other up, the temporary look of shock on his fair face immidiately replaced by a gentle, charming smile.
"Are you okay? I'm sorry... I didn't see you coming..."
His voice, a smooth tenor, carried well in the bright morning air, and as he bent to help him up, the smaller one could smell his cologne.
After a moment, the tall, slender blonde had the other on his feet again, and was reaching out to smooth his ruffled clothing.

"F-fine... Sorry about bumping into you... I... wasn't looking..." Look accepted the other's help to get up and looked up to see his face, but unfortunately the sun was right behind the other and all he could see was a shadowy face with blinding light from both the sun and reflections off the hair. "Ahh...." He looked back down, rubbing at his eyes. The man had a nice voice and Keiji wondered if his looks matched his vocals. Probably not...

The man's eyes narrowed slightly, mostly out of concern, and he placed a gentle hand on the other's shoulder.
"Do you have a headache?"
Then, after a moment's pause, he seemed to realize.
"Oh! Let's get you out of the direct sun, hm?"
With that, the taller man attempted to usher the other into a nearby alcove, just in front of a closed down building.
((Sorry for the short post. Room mate is yelling at me. Next will be better, I promise!))

((xD I've seen shorter and I've done shorter. =P))
He nodded and stepped into the shade. He blinked for a bit, head twitching slightly. The movement sent his bangs in front of his eyes and he blew air out of his mouth the blow them away. He suddenly realised how childish he must appear and blushed slightly, not meeting the other's gaze. "Errr... S-sorry about running into you..." he said somewhat hesitantly.

A warm smile lit up the features of the man, and his hand remained on the smaller one's shoulder, while the other lifted, as if habitually, to brush strands of hair out of his own azure eyes.
"No worries..."
Nodding slightly, he grinned as he noted the faint blush on the other's face. With that, he reached out, setting a gentle fingertip to the underside of the other's chin, turning his gaze upward to meet his own.
"Really. I should have been paying more attention to where I was walking."
After a moment more of holding the other's gaze to his own, he lowered his hand, then extended it in greeting.
"I'm Johann."

He shook the hand, noddind. "My name's Keiji," he said quietly. "And..." His nose dilated a bit, smelling the air. "You smell weird..." It wasn't the man's cologne, although that was rather strong, though not unpleasant, but there was something else, too. It seemed like he was almost trying to cover up his scent with the cologne, like he didn't want to be noticed. "Ack... sorry..." he said, realising that that must have sounded rude. He tended to say whatever he thought or felt with out thinking the concequences through before hand.

A slight arch of one elegant brow, then Johann's face returned to his usual smile.
"It's alright, I suppose... is my cologne a bit strong?"
At this, he let both of his hands drop to his sides, then nearly fell sideways, coming to rest on the wall right beside him.
"I'm sorry if it is, I..."
After a slight hesitation.
"Have a dog..."
