"Oh, well then, no need to linger," Jericho said while backing on out of the room. That look on her face suggested that her last time here was less than pleasant, and he quickly found out why that was, "Just who exactly is this stalker guy anyway? Don't have to answer that if you don't want to. Just curious really."
Pausing there, he looked around to try and see where he could go next. Well, there were the clubhouses he supposed. The dragon started walking down that way, passing up a number of classrooms along the way.

"His name is Deacon.." Riyo started, his name seething out of her mouth. "Same kind of demon as me, unfortunately..." It wasn't glorifying to be apart of the same species, that's for sure...
"And as it turns out, his dorm room is right across from mine..." Ears folded back, she looked like a cat ready to strike. Jack, that boil... "I installed three more locks than I already had when I found out." the ghoul mumbled as she followed the dragon, fingers fidgeting with a pumpkin seed in her pocket while she thought.

Now there was a name he recognized and he couldn't help but frown a bit when he heard it. Jericho recalled how the male bakeneko acted during that blasted spin the bottle game.
"Can't say I'm too surprised sadly. Seems like the type to harass and stuff," he said, "Damn that sucks that he's right across from ya."
Pausing in front of one of the clubhouse rooms, he thumbed towards the door.
"This is where the Fitness club is. .. Right next door is the NAP club," he explained. He did recall her being interested in the Fitness club during the open house and all.

Riyo noticed his frown right off the bat, which concerned her a little bit. Seems like the type? She had to wonder just what the cat boil had done in front of the dragon to make him say that.
Though his second comment caught her off guard. Was that sympathy? She opened her mouth to say something defensive... But recoiled and tossed the idea away instead. It had been a long time since she stopped herself from making a snide remark or comeback, but a small part of the feline remembered that good intentions often went unnoticed, and that's all his comment really was.
Riyo would have to remember the fitness club location. She HAD wanted to join, after all. What with her noodly arms and lack of muscle tone from being a desk jockey most of her life.
"... Nap club?" Riyo asked as they approached the doors. "... Do they take naps in nap club?" It seemed like a silly thing to make a club out of to her...

"Yeah, pretty much. There's a sort of unspoken rivalry between our two clubs due to the divide in interests," Jericho explained, "That and the two leads kinda are rivals in a sense."
If only he had actually been present while Riley and Barth were butting heads at the festival. He had missed that ordeal, even if he picked up on the rage the Mindflayer had felt when it happened.
"If you want to take a look inside, go ahead," he said, "Otherwise, we'll just keep moving on."

Riyo couldn't help but find it ironic that the two opposing clubs were right next to each other. Wouldn't the noise the fitness club made interfere with naps? Oh well...
"No, that's fine." the feline shook her head as she spoke. "We can continue."
The whole idea of joining clubs was vexing, since Riyo didn't have much spare time to begin with. "I'm.. Not entirely sure I'll have time for clubs. There's a lot on my plate." Besides school, she still had a business that needed tending to. Yeah, her VP had said he would do some of the work... But how long would that last?

Moving away from the clubrooms, Jericho paused briefly as he was trying to figure out where their next stop would be. Well, despite being closed, he supposed it wouldn't hurt to point out where the gym was. So, he went off in that direction. Along the way, he passed up the guidance counselor office, which he just pointed out as they went by.
"Well, the school usually requires that you are a part of one club. At least that's how it's supposed to be. Not sure how regulated that is."

"Oh." Well, she supposed that changed everything. "I guess I'll definitely have to consider what I want to do, then."
Would she join the fitness club and most likely sentence herself to pain and suffering? Or would she figure out something else? Well, she didn't have to make up her mind right away...
"Hey.." Momentarily, she paused. "You don't have somewhere else to be, do you?"

"Hm?" Jericho turned towards the bakeneko, then shook his head, "No. Not in particular at least."
Right now he didn't exactly have any work to do, since he currently didn't have any classes. He hadn't planned on meeting with anyone either today, so he was pretty free for doing this.
"Oh, over here is the main gym. It's locked, but I figured it might be good to know where it is anyway," he shrugged while continuing to move around through the school grounds.

"Making sure." There was no need for him to waste his time if he had something else to do, after all.
Glancing over his shoulder, Riyo looked at the door to the main gym. She had to wonder just why it was locked. As he went on to continue the tour, the feline followed at a close distance. "So, do you know why it's locked?" She asked, figuring it might just be something they did over the summer.

"Not really. Some people say it's being remodeled, but who knows? I'm guessing Red's doing something in there though," Jericho shrugged, "Sometimes... er.. most of the time, it's a bit hard to try and guess what the Professors up to."
Moving on along, he noticed they were getting closer towards the forest.
"Over there is Breck's shed, belonging to our groundskeeper. The Weeping forest is back there. We're... technically not supposed to enter it but that doesn't stop people from going there now and then," he explained.

Remodeling? Huh. Well she supposed that would be a valid reason... But it seemed that Jericho wasn't so convinced of that. Interesting.
Though the question of what was in the gym drifted away when they approached the shed.
"... Is there something in the forest students aren't supposed to see?" Was the first question that popped into her mind as her eyes scanned the trees, ears pointed up trying to catch any sounds from its direction.

"Well, there's supposed to be portals in there... Which is.. kinda true," Jericho said while staring at the woods. There were several times where either they or other people had suddenly warped too and from another world.
"There have been some incidents in the past regarding portals, but I have no clue if there's any permanent things in there. Either way, it's probably best to not be looking for them. Never know where the hell you'll end up."

"... Portals?" Riyo repeated with a surprised look.
She'd heard rumors and stories about such a thing... But...
"Like... To the human world?" Now she was curious. He said it like there were numerous possibilities. How fascinating would that be? "Have you ever been? Through one of these portals..." Her eyes lit up at the chance to hear about this, hoping he'd be able to tell her something interesting.

Jericho saw that look of interest, and he figured he should probably be a little careful with this information. He didn't want to give stuff that would end up getting her in trouble.
"Once. There was this pendant that warped a bunch of us to the human world. But our FEAR was too damn weak that we couldn't affect anything. We could barely stray from the starting point before being recalled back because of it too," he said, having a hint of frustration in his tone. One day, he wouldn't mind going back. But by then he hoped that he could be able to do more aside from standing around and trying to run across the street to fetch the pendant on the other side.
