Azura Knight

Azura let out a small breath of relief she hadn't realized she had been holding. It had been the first time she had really seen Cecil lose control like this, and she had no idea how he would react to her walking up to him. The way he glared at her when she first spoke to him didn't bode well, but she persisted and it paid off. When she laid her hand on his arm everything seemed to stand still for a few moments. Tessa was speaking in the background behind Azura's back. Something about complaining of how Cecil had chosen to fight, but Azura pushed the sound of her voice out of her mind, focusing on Cecil. Then he seemed to calm, the black marks fading and his expression softening, and she let out the breath she had been holding.

However, she was quick to learn that she was wrong to think things were over. While Azura had ignored Tessa it seemed Cecil had not. She groaned internally knowing Tessa wouldn't take kindly to the words. As a general rule, Azura hated confrontation and just wanted to put this whole thing behind them. Instead, Cecil was challenging her to another fight. "Cecil-" She didn't get much further than that before she heard the unmistakable sound of a grenade being fired. She turned just in time to see it going flying passed the couple and explode against the far wall. Then she turned towards Tessa in utter disbelief that she would fire at them. Miss or not, the fight was over and her back had been turned to the Rino. Someone needed to teach her the childhood lesson of sticks and stones. Professor Anderson seemed at a loss for what to do, but then in her observations, the Professor was often flying by the seat of her pants. She had a lot to teach them about survival and Grimm, but she had a lot to learn about how to deal with students. "We are both fine. The shockwave didn't even reach us, though I might suggest it is time to have a conversation with the headmaster. This is the fifth time I have seen Tessa attack a fellow student while they were unaware she was coming for them." Who knew how many instances there were that Azura hadn't witnessed. "Hardly huntsman behaviour." Likely Azura would report her concerns to the headmaster regardless of what Professor Anderson did. She had more to say, but those words were for Cecil alone and she would wait for the professor to leave.

XXXMan... Being a teacher was growing more complicated with each and every class. It was beginning to stress thought processes that the Hood tried to teach her. To be tactical, to observe and listen. To enforce punishment when its necessary, while restraining when it was unjust. A whole series of processes that Rachel just could never exercise well. What would she normally do when someone was being a tough cookie to deal with? Deck them upside the head and put them in their place, of course! That was her go to, and she was very well ready to go do that to the sassy faunus that strode out of the Arena. Rachel's fingers curled into a tight fist, digging her nails into her palm as she thought long and hard about something that should honestly be simple. Thinking just wasn't her strong suit. Then it was Azura who spoke of an action to follow, one that Rachel was very EHHHHH about. But, she was right. "I remember snake-eyes tellin' me! Somethin' about a desk then tryin' to fight someone else's fight. F**kin' hell, at least I'm paid to harass you kiddos." Oh man, that was a throwback. Despite not being one for thinking, that brought her back to the beach for a moment. There were a couple of bird people, someone who was supposed to be a teacher. What was his name again? Kozuki? Kuzuki? Kuku? Zuzu? Either way, she said the exact same line after Tessa had... Oh s**t. She really did have a history of this, didn't she? That's when she remembered, the rhino-gal striking the owl that attended class at the beach. Thinking on that, she'd c**k her head in curiosity. Pulling her compact rifle from her back, it would unfold in a series of whirls to transform into an anchor for her to plant into the ground and lean against. This wasn't the first time that she had to put her foot of authority down. After all, that's how team MAKO got dissolved once upon a time. Finally tossing her carefree and reckless nature to the wind, she took charge and had Maria put on leave from the academy. "Huh... Aight, aight. You win, kiddo. Consider it the prize for Sir Popsicle here. I ain't ever a fan of talkin' to the bird in charge, so you're gonna do most the talkin'. K, Azu?" Rachel would only wait a moment for the girl to respond before shifting her weight away from the anchor. Even as Cecil's semblance began powering down, she was still shivering. She really couldn't fight the cold. "Aight, I'm leaving. You need a space heater or somethin' with ya, Mr. freeze. I gotta go check on Feathers and go talk to Flutter. So, lock the doors on your way out. We'll see about talkin' to Big Bird later." Fingers wrapping around her anchor, she'd swing the oversized weapon over her shoulder. With a hand to her forehead, she'd salute a wave off to the two before turning on her heel and stepping across the sandy shores. It was already so warm, it felt AMAZING. The moment she stepped off the beach though, she'd press a button on the remote that caused the landscape to shift and revert to the normal metal plating. Being a teacher was waaay to stressful, and she really needed a drink after this. ... Honestly, she probably should go check with the nurse anyways. Not just for her students, but for getting smashed by a Nevermore.
