 Tristan raised an eyebrow, there were more than that? Somehow it didn't surprise him considering this was Estelle. Surprises were everywhere. To the point where one wasn't as surprised anymore. At least, to him. Oh? Almost sounds like Tsuki. Just without the medium of drawing. And limited to creatures. He wondered if this guy and Tsuki had held conversations, and the like. Maybe he was the one who had gotten very close to causing her to break the morale rule she followed so closely.
Chuckling, he shook his head slightly, "It would seem everyone here is a troublemaker in his or her own way. This somehow doesn't really surprise me." He murmured, brushing his bangs from his face. Stuffing his hands in his pocket, he felt the tug of other spirits, his eyes darting to where he sensed them. Unknown to him, he was looking right at where Sheryl had popped out in the distance, shaking his head to toss away the thought. "Maybe thats why he allowed Ms. Kobiyashi to stay. She is a troublemaker. At least with students hearts." He smirked with a chuckle, looking down to her as his features smoothed out into a smile.

 Elly laughed, the thought of it most likely true. "I wouldn't doubt it. Interesting things help fuel Atlas' life so its probable that he would let her teach here. I think he has the thoughts that people who are troublemakers are usually the ones that go far in life, because they go out of their way to do it. It's really a 50/50 chance too because some of the troublemakers are dangerous and have bad intentions. I'm surprised the ones that used to cause problems aren't starting things up yet... though I should knock on wood for jinxing it now," she said and laughed again.
As they round the corner of one of the buildings, they came to face the forrest where something was standing outside of it, glowing. Elly held Tristan back weh she saw it and put her finger up to her lips as though telling himm to 'ssshhh'. As they peered around the building, they saw a pure white tiger glowing just at the mouth of the forrest as it looked around. The stripes on it looked as though they cut into the fur of the tiger, it obviously being darkness on them. Elly did not try to go near it yet, precaution being the key at this moment for the tiger was more wild than friendly, in which elly told Tristan this, so that in case he incountered it in the future, he would know

 As Calcifer continued to drink Jareth watched Tsuki as she jumped from the tree to the roof with a dancers grace. He was so distracted by her that he didn't notice the lights dart forwards and towards his horse. Letting out a loud, shrieking cry the dapply grey animal reared up, it's large hoofs pounding at the air. Jareth leaned forwards to prevent himself from falling, apparently staying on was fairly easy even without a saddle or bridle. The horse returned to the ground, leaving imprints the size of dinner plates in the banks of the lake, walking a small circle before settling down again.
Jareth quickly dismounted and strode towards the lake, a cold glint in his eyes giving him a look of pure, wild anger. He approached the lake, kneeling on it's bank and staring at the lights, as if daring them to come closer. Responding to his bait they edged closer, but before the pale faces could break the surface he rested the tips of his fingers on the waters surface, freezing a small section instantly. It would melt with the dawn, his magic unable to withstand the sunlight but it would make the mermaid's who'd bothered him very uncomfortable for the evening.
"Fools...I should freeze the water you are made of and be rid of you," he muttered, glancing back to check on Calcifer before his gaze returned to the water. What he saw made the fae boy jump in his skin.
The ice was dark, reflecting the black night sky to form a mirror image. As the fae looked back he saw himself, but also he saw his Queen, standing behind his right shoulder, the look of scorn and arrogance still fresh on her features. Hissing in suprise Jareth fell back, retreating to the safety of Calcifers side and away from the waters edge. Running a shaking hand over the lids of his eyes he began to walk slowly towards Tsuki, Calcifer following at a sluggish pace. He needed something familiar to calm himself, and his teacher was the only person in the school he currently felt any affection for.

 Tsuki could sense the essences of nature moving, her eyes closed until the twins sudden return not too long after they left. Half an hour perhaps. Her eyes narrowed as she saw the one give her an anime sort of greeting, following their movements for another moment before she felt Vadasz grip her shoulder a little tighter. The twins she could talk to another time. They wouldn't be going anywhere for a while. Turning on the roof, she saw Elly blind one of the mermaids, then the two left.
At the shriek, her eyes narrowed, turning darker and darker until they almost seemed black, crimson flooding it to glint in the moons light. She observed from her viewpoint, her features twisting into a smirk when he froze the attacker. Fools... She hissed in her head, pulling herself back again. Walking to the edge towards the lake, she waited for the moment, brows furrowing in confusion when Jareth seemed startle so terribly. What would- Oh... This caused a grimace to crease her lips, looking up to Vadasz. "Might be best to go my friend. Remain overhead if you must." She murmured softly, stepping up to the very edge.
Jumping, it seemed so small, landing lightly on the ground in a crouch. It almost seemed like there was a slight indentation, but perhaps it was simply a trick of the light. She straightened up, appearing her normal self, the teal of her eyes bright and concerned. She kept her expression neutral for the moment, realizing full well that he probably guessed she was watching. "Come now, my most arrogant student appearing disturbed? I can't have this. It throws off the very balance that has begun to settle." She called, the tease gentle, hoping he wouldn't take it wrong since he could spark up so easily. The concern she knew he'd detect, a small smirk upon her lips.

(( I wasn't. Writers block is just creeping on me is all. >.< Gomenasai!)) Tristan chuckled lightly, never really giving their head master much thought since the man did so well to hide himself away. Or at least, that was what it seemed like. Who knows what he really did in his time or anything. Smirking, he thought of how bad he really was the year before or at least how often he was a bother. More often than now for sure. Closing his eyes, he shook his head slightly, turning his eyes to her once more. "Very true. And sadistic ones. Though, usually they are the bad ones. Meh, you know what I mean."
He fell silent since she held him back and shushed him, his brows furrowing since he was confused. Once he saw the creature, he touched a hand to Cielo, sensing the hackles on the wolfs body go up. Now that was an impressive sight. He leaned around the corner just a little more to look, turning invisible when the creature seemed to turn it's head slightly. Straightening, he became visible again, a hand running through Cielo's fur gently.

 Being night, Seiji found himself taking his time, pacing slowly. His eyes flitted about, scanning his surroundings, every so often checking the map in his hands. It was slightly difficult to make things out in the dark, but he could manage. Just wandering about the grounds was going to be more than enough. At least until he found himself tired, enough so he could sleep.
Seiji was used to not having huges amount of sleep. Moving from place to place, sometimes he spent a good amount of time finding a suitable area to stay. Especially if there was trouble around. Sleeping in a bad spot meant that he could wake up at any moment surrounded by something, or find that he had been robbed. In some cases, maybe even worse. He knew some beasts weren't above snacking on an unconcious body. As such, sometimes Seiji was a light sleeper. Better for his safety. Hopefully that was a trait he might be able to break now. Or at least change. Living at a school, Seiji would have all kinds of noises to deal with now, waking at every scratch would cause him to lose all kinds of sleep.
Either way, if he could manage to stay awake through his classes, and pay attention then as was well. Provided he wasn't late for his first class every day. That would definitely not be the way to start off his new life here. Well, he'd head back to his dorm when he felt the sleep tugging at his conciousness. Until then, there was nothing wrong with meandering about. If anything, it passed time and gave him a slight chance to get to know his new surroundings. Of course, the grounds would look different in the day light, but he was positive it wouldn't look that different. He would still be able to find his way about. Maybe even better with more light.
Dragging his feet slightly, Seiji turned around a corner and glanced at the map momentarily. If he was reading this right,currently he was next to the building where classes were held. Looking up to it and then back to the map, Seiji made a mental note of this. This would be where he would have to head when he woke up. Hopefully he could find his way about the inside of the building. Being late on his first day would be embarassing.
Folding the map up and tucking it away into his pocket, Seiji reached for the Dite in his other pocket. It was something he did often, just to keep his hands occupied. Pulling the white object from his pants, Seiji turned it end over end, just to keep himself busy. Fingers continuously turned and flipped it as the raven haired man continued his night stroll. His eyes finally rose up and glanced to the building once more before looking to where he was headed next.

((ooopsie! sorry I thought that you forgot about me lol ^^;; yeah im having a writers block fit as well ~____~ )) The tiger caught sight of them, but upon seeing Elly, it did not attack, but turned back and lept into the forrest, the night ungulfing the tiger without any trace of watching it fade away into the distance. "One time when I was teleporting, I accidentally teleported into the forrest somewhere. It was really scary, I thought I was going to be attacked, lucky enough Atlas was there at the same time as I was. I teleported to where Syon was, but he wasn't there when I did that and I misjudged too. I think there's a homing devise on me.... I wouldn't doubt it" she said in a laughing manner as she continued to walk around campus.

(( Haha, I do my damndest not to forget about people. Sometimes it happens on occasion when there's a bout of people posting at once, but generally I don't. ^_^ Yeeaah... Must fight it... somehow... )) Tristan almost moved to draw his pistols, but when the tiger moved away he relaxed, exhaling slowly. Personally he'd rather not shoot the creature, then again, would his pistols even do anything? Probably not. He sighed lightly, his attention drawn back to Elly as he heard her speak. Cocking his head, he chuckled, pretending to look over her back for something, but stopped. "Well I don't see one." He laughed, blinking as he was suddenly floating. Sighing, he looked over himself and shook his head, luminescent eyes looking back to her. "Perhaps it's the necklace you wear or something? I mean, if there were one." He pointed out, barely visible in the night since it was so dark. The moons light helped a little bit, but for anyone other than those next to him, they may not be able to see him.

 (( My apologies to Shapatti, but their interaction was like... seven pages back. >.< )) It was a lovely evening in Vira's opinion, herself taking a nice flight over the grounds, listening to some tales the wind sprites around her had to share. Giggling merrily, she suddenly shot down towards the grounds, noticing Tristan and Elly down on the grounds. Despite all of her teasings, she was actually rooting for him and hoped that he would finally do something. It brought a small smile to her lips, glancing back as the water sprites finished two braids out of her long, turquoise hair. There was a lovely ice rose at the end of each, keeping it bound so they wouldn't fall out. Not until she wanted them to.
Pulling up before she hit the ground, she shot past the twins that were new there, noticing how the one sort of felt like Tristan did. Maybe she had an affinity for spirits? Who knew. Turning her eyes elsewhere, she leveled out, brushing over the top of the sakura tree's in the courtyard, her fingers brushing it as she stared up at the stars. Sighing lightly, she thought of how Mrs. Duval had yelled at her, sticking her tongue out at the sky as she back flipped and landed on the ground lightly. It ruffled the single sleeve on her one arm, brushing a loose hair behind her ear. Climbing up the sakura tree, she perched in the branches, the moonlight leaking to spill over her which made her smile. Initially someone may not see her, but if they looked hard enough, the shades of blue, green, and all inbetween would become quite apparent amongst the pink blossoms.
Taking a deep breath, she began to sing, not really worried about volume since most kept their windows closed. And well, if anyone heard her wandering around, she didn't think it would offend them, would it? She shivered as she felt a memory roll over her, clenching one hand into a fist as she kept her voice steady, a water and wind spirit both running down her arms to try to soothe her. It brought a smile to her lips, turning as she jumped out of the branches, landing lightly as a slight circle of air softened her fall. She then began to walk, helping her to keep her mind from drifting to dark places, the moon shimmering against her golden eyes. Honestly she didn't hear or notice the sounds of footsteps, rather distracted as she moved her arms so it was like she was dancing with the sprites. To anyone else, it would simply appear like she was dancing with herself, her voice remaining steady and warm as the notes rose up into the air.(( As always, reference link to what she is singing ))

Jareth looked up, his hand slowly lowering from his eyes as Tsuki approached. She seemed different compared to when he'd last seen her at lunch. Something more wild, her eyes bright in such a manner he was attracted and yet concerned. She seemed to be a woman with something on her mind. As she started to tease him he smirked in response, the fae for once looking mildly embarassed. Calcifer, finally made his way behind Jareth, and gave his shoulder a good push with his large forehead, sending the fae forward a few more feet towards her.
"Atlas's pet goldfish were annoying Calcifer," he finally explained, which was true. The fact that it was not the reason for his disturbance wasn't something his trainer and friend would need to hear. Grabbing a peice of the horses main he pulled the animal forwards a few more steps, the large beasts head now coming right over his shoulder to nudge Tsuki.
"You introduced me to Vadasz, it seems only polite to return the favour," he muttered in way of explaination, patting the huge horses neck as it reassure himself he wasn't being a total prat.

Embarrassment? Well now, something had flustered him greatly. s**t, probably would have flustered her a bit too. She withheld a chuckle as his horse nudged him forward, instead only raising a slight eyebrow to his explanation. "They were hm?" She murmured, turning her gaze to the lake, her eyes seeming to glint red, but perhaps it was a trick of the light for they remained teal. Her eyes once again rested upon him, looking up to the great animal that was his head. She smiled at the nudge, holding out a hand to show she meant no harm.
"Calcifer, I am glad to meet you. I am Tsuki Kobiyashi. Please permit me to throw around your master and friend a bit while he is here." She murmured with a chuckle, glancing to Jareth then. Another small tease on her part, running a hand along his muzzle gently if he permitted her to do so. "Yes, the merfolk are less than friendly. It seems to slip their mind that I could smite them if I so chose to." She said with a sweet smile, but again her eyes glinted red, brushing a stray bang from her face. Hearing a call from above, she looked up to see Vadasz swoop down to perch on her shoulder again. "Oh you stubborn..." She poked the phoenix's beak lightly, shaking her head a little.
"If I may inquire, what troubled you so moments earlier? Forgive me if I step too far, but it seems as if it were more than simple mermaids being pests." She asked carefully, her gaze resting upon her student, and friend, again remaining neutral. She knew he could tell she was concerned.

"Hmm that is possible. Atlas cares for me like a father would his daughter so I suppose he would put something like that on me. Now i'm going to be paranoid" she said with a laugh, probably only thinking about it from time to time and then forgetting about it. As they walked more and more, Elly started to get this weird, sensing feeling. She turned her head towards where it was strongest, and it was coming from the forrest. She kind of looked like a dog or a wolf, tilting their heads back and sniffing the air in the direction of s scent. She stopped walking for a second to determine what it was she sensed, but it stopped or backed away. "I swear I just sensed darkness stirring around in the forrest, but it just dissappeared.... odd...." she said alud, looking towards the forrest and then up at Tristan, shrugging.((I am going camping this weekend so I won't be able to post til about Sunday evening))

Things seemed to be going rather smoothly. As Seiji continued his stroll, he couldn't help but to yawn a couple times. Dragging his feet more and more, the young man finally decided it was time to turn in. He had seen enough of the grounds for the time being. He knew where he needed to go tomorrow, which was more than enough. Heading back toward the dorms, Seiji made sure to keep his attention on his surroundings. It would be a bit clumsy of him to run into someone because he wasn't paying attention. Not that he thought there would be a whole lot people out at this time night anyhow.
Seiji's eyes were locked on the dorms by now. Step by step he got closer to his new bed. He could see a couple lights on, but that was to be expected. After all, not everyone slept through the night. Aside from that, perhaps a couple of the classes were taught at night. It wasn't crazy to think that some classes might take place now. Some things might be easier to teach after the sun had set. On the same note, if everyone here had certain abilities, then maybe some of the students' abilities only worked at night, or worked better at night.
Either way, Seiji was glad that he wouldn't have to be fumbling through the darkness to try and find his dorm again. With the luck he had sometimes, he'd trip over something and break some piece of equipment. Or maybe end up at the other end of the building and have to traverse the dark halls to the other end. With the lights, it would be much easier. Finally making it back to his hall, the raven haired man sighed a sigh of relief as he reached his door. Turning the key and pushing the door open, Seiji flicked the light switch as he entered.
Everything was the same as when he had left, which was no real surprise. If everything was missing, or the room was trashed, he'd feel rather annoyed for the most part. Then again, if he did have a room mate now, it didn't show. The room looked exactly as it did before. So, they kept things pretty tidy and didn't like to stick around. Though as far as he could tell, he was alone for the time being. After a few moments, Seiji was ready for sleep, and upon turning the light off, he wandered through the dark to his bed and lay down. It wasn't long before he found sleep, the exhaustion tugging at his eyes. Still clutching his Dite, Seiji fell into his slumber.((Not that Seiji is intereacting with anyone at the moment anyway, but same goes for me. I'll be out of town until Sunday evening. But once I'm back I'll make a post of some sort.))

((Gah, everyone be leaving! lol xD It's odd, i normally have to read through loads of pages because of the time diff. )) Calcifer raised his head a little to meet the woman's hand, his nostrils flaring briefly as her eyes seemed to glint scarlet but other then that he showed little reaction. The horse's ears flickered backwards and forwards as she spoke of throwing Jareth around, before pulling his head away from the two and bending down to graze. It was probably the closest a horse could get to a shrug of indifference.
Jareth watched, chuckling lightly before replying, "Honestly most things slip past a fish mind. Everything except food," his smile faded slowly as she brought up the real cause of his distress. Sighing gently the fae subconciously rubbed at his eyes again, turning so that he was side on to her, choosing to look out across the dark water then look her in the eye.
"You hold a greater rank then I, Miss. Kobiyashi, it is not for me to judge what you may and may not know." he tried to sound calm, throwing away the comment though their was a slight edge to his voice that showed he was uncomfortable.
"It is my beloved Queen...it has become her whim to watch my movements. It is-" he paused briefly, trying to find the correct words. He could not tell a lie, but his true feelings would result in dire consequences. "I cannot afford to fail my lady, she wants what is best for me, and for the balance of all things," he finally concluded, his mouth settling into a small frown that suited his sharp, thin features far too well, as if it were an expression he chose often. Shaking his head he finally turned back to her, ice blue eyes sharp and intent.
"Forgive me, but I do not seem to be the only one troubled this night..." he muttered pointedly, a slender eyebrow raising as he spoke.
