Welcome to Gaia! ::

Hatori had remained quite for the timebeing, simply watching the events unfold before him in a neutral manner.. No one would notice the slight flinch as the first girl had drawn near, gaze directed elsewhere soon enough. The dragon lifted a hand to run his fingers through his hair, and then froze a moment, brows arching.. Eh? Had she said they were...?

Wow. Sohma Hatori might have just been called a jerk. It was a sign of the apocalypse, wasn't it? That hadn't... Eh... That really had never happened to the quiet boy before. No one had thought to call the laid back, gentle teen something like that before..

He allowed it to blow right on over him, hand slipping down to rest in his pockets. He shouldn't let such things worry him. His attention turned back towards the long-haired male infront of him, returning the shrug. What an odd girl- his gaze shifted neutrally towards the female behind Ayame, only one brow lifting this time... He quickly lost interest in the situation though, turning in the opposite direction,
"I'm going to my first class."
Lateness. Pff. What a horrid idea. The young male's original father would never tolerate lateness, nor would their Head... And so he made a point to never be late. He waved a hand,
"Ja, Ayame-kun.."
He darted a glance towards the female behind him, offering her a good bye as well before beginning his trudge down the hallway. He probably would end up late anyways. Sigh. Something would come up and delay him.. Especially because Ayame was a small distance behind him.

Alida shook her head as Ayame went dashing after Hatori, then headed towards the stairs. She hoped it wouldn't be hard to find now... she would be late, and that thought horrified her.

Luckily, when she reached the top of the staircase, there it was, just as Ayame had said. Alida breathed a sigh of releif, hurried inside, and sat down at her desk just as the bell rang.

The teacher took role, and gave Alida a look as if matching her name with her face, as this was her first day in class. A couple of other students watched her appraisingly, wondering where she would fit into the high school hierarchy.

Alida busied herself with arranging her notepad and pencil, acutely aware of the people looking at her. She had chosen a seat near the front, where there were mostly empty seats, and she could feel the eyes looking at her back. She shifted uncomfortably, hoping she had covered up her wings enough... she didn't know any other kinder here besides Ayame and Hatori, and they were upperclassmen, so she didn't think she'd see much of them.

She began to feel alone.

This feeling quickly faded as the teacher began to lecture. This was an english course, Freshman English. Though Alida already knew what what was being taught about grammar, it was a thrill simply to be in a class that was about what she loved. Words, and how to fit them together into a beautifully crafted sentence. She hung on the teacher's words, and he almost seemed gratified to have a student who didn't write notes, or doodle, or pass out, or daydream.

After class, when the homework assignment had been given out, Alida walked up to the front of the class where the teacher was sitting at the desk, and waited patiently.

He looked up with some surprise, also not used to students hanging around after class. "Yes... Alida? Can I help you with something?"

She bit her lip, and opned her notebook again, writing, I am unable to speak, so I was wondering how you would like me to give you answers in class, if I know them?"

He read it, and then gave her a look of sympathy. "I wasn't told about this, but if I call on you, feel free to write it out and I'll read it to the class for you. How does that sound?"

Alida beamed, and nodded, glad it had worked out. If she had had to go write it on the board, that would have been mortifying.

The dragon reluctantly slowed his pace further, glancing back towards the eccentric male one again,
"Nn?"
His head tilted itself to one side, brows arching slightly.. What now?.. Ah, it wasn't as though he didn't expect the snake would stop him once again, but.. He could pretend he didn't, for now. He shifted slightly, and one the other caught up he quickened his steps once again.

"We have to get to our first classes soon, Ayame-kun."
His gaze darted about the area- luckily, his first class was somewhat close, and he had spoken to his teacher before making a trip to his lockers. She seemed somewhat fond of him, so hopefully he wouldn't anger anyone too much. He didn't quite enjoy angering authority, especially after growing up around Akito.. So.... He let out the faintest of sighs. He suddenly felt tired.. A whole day ahead of him still before he could retire to the calmness of either their home or his office. Mnn.

(( X3 yea.. same here. fwoot.
NEW WORD.
FWOOT.
*cough* >>
Maybe a new.. outgoing friend for alida? XD

I try to avoid highschool by being like "no i can go to college D=" >>;; I'd probably end up attacking someone. Witha stick. If there were no sticks i'd curl up in a corner and die. o__o
But.. i know the ignored thing e_e;; i'm practically invisible. I got smacke din the head with a FILECABNET at CHURCH. o__O in a mass of other teens.
I think that says enough XD

Nn, also.. if you want you can give me suggestions on kana.. theres not much on her ._.;; ))

She smiled, eyes scanning over the pages. "Yep! I am." for all anyone knew she could have been held back a grade. Luckally she hadn't.

Before she knew it she had blurted out a question without thinking "Aa, So you can't talk? Thats why you seemed to like english class.." she choked on the words as soon as they reached her own ears. BAKAA
"I mean! Not that thats bad or anything! Thats cool, ya know?" She flailed a bit, ending with a thumbs up and an awkward grin.

After a second of the grin and thumbs up she fell into a slup, head down as if she had just died right there. "Sorry..." She muttered, slowly looking up with a laugh and hitting her own head "Hollow in there..."

Kana chewed her lip, sighing a bit in releif that she hadn't upset her. "A writer? Thats cool." she smiled, starting to calm down a bit. She moved out of the class, gesturing for Alida to walk and talk with her.
After they both got into the hall she dug out her schedule, glancing it over. "Lesse.. Next is.. my favorite science! Math isn't too bad for me. But science is the best. How things work, chemicals bonding or disagreeing.. causing explosions!" she threw her arms out making a boom noise then laughing. "But Human science is the most interesting. How the body works, I don't know much.. but i've read a few books on my own. Hopefully I can get a good teacher."

((theres not much on her. Just the episode with Hatori, and that one reference where she gets married o_o
Ah well.. can't be ooc if theres nothing to compare it to, right? XD))

(( oh, info fer rel =3 in the manga number 9 Ayame says why he got into sewing. *puts the semi-spoilers in white*

Cuz he just wanted to be able to make something that wouldn't exist without him.
Theres also something where he like.. forgot Yuki's name and Hatori or shigure was lecturing him for it or somesuch o__O ))

(( oh and he also poofs in extreem hot aswell as cold.. XD
Yuki: Besides, Nii-san, don't you get weak in extreem heat and cold?! It'd be a problem if you transformed and fainted! for me.
Ayame: It's too late for that, little brother! *poof* I've allready gone past the critical point! =D
Yuki: ARG!! MY STUPID BROTHER!!

Also, Yuki asks how he managed to go to school like that.. and Ayame's like "Of course i was able to go! Because the car that took me to school would drive right up to the schools gate!"
*shoves in more spoilers*
Yuki's mom: Yuki. Cut that out! Why are you so disobedient? Yuki! I'll hit you!
Yuki: *trying to get out of her grasp*
Ayame's thoughts now: But i too... Would have sold you...In exchange for satisfying my own indulgence.
*scans the rest because it gets a bit confusing and shes still not sure who's saying what*

numba one, numba two.))
